Chapter 12 Building Defense Towers

Looking at Lina after she learned it, Lin En took out the secondary job skill book and learned it directly.

[System: Secondary Job Skill Book -1]

[System: Congratulations, you have learned Tier 1 Tower Construction *1]

Lin En opened the secondary job panel and took a look. He discovered that without the Tier 1 Tower Construction skill, he couldn't even build a tower? And defense towers even required blueprints to learn?

Fortunately, he came with a Tier 1 Wooden Arrow Tower, but it required 100 wood and 10 iron blocks to build one.

...It seems I don't have much wood left? Lin En thought for a moment, looking at the jungle in front of him, at the thick, sturdy trees. He just so happened to have a Tier 3 axe in hand. Let's try it out.

Lin En stood up, took out the axe, and walked toward the jungle. Lina followed.

Looking at the big tree in front of him, he swung the axe, and a large chunk was immediately chopped out. It looked like two more swings and this tree would fall.

Sure enough, after two more swings, the tree fell straight down and turned into piles of wood. Good lord, this axe with +10 was different! It was fast, and the amount of wood was more.

[System: Wood *12]

[System: Wood *15]

[System: Wood *11]

[System: Wood *18]

Just one tree gave over 50 wood. Awesome.

After collecting the piles of wood, Lin En immediately went to the next tree. Two or three swings of the axe, and another big tree fell, turning into piles of wood.

He gained another fifty or sixty wood, and he went to another tree to repeat the previous operation.

Lina followed behind, watching, and felt very bored.

She glanced at Lin En, who was still chopping trees, and wandered around nearby, feeling very bored.

Huh? She seemed to see something. Lina trotted over, squatted down to take a look, and saw a bunch of straight mushrooms standing up. The mushroom caps had some soil on them, looking like they had just sprouted from the ground.

Lina picked the mushrooms one by one. After standing up, she looked around and found there were quite a few. After shouting to Lin En that she was going to pick mushrooms, she ran towards the location where she had just seen the mushrooms.

Lin En heard Lina's words, but before he could reply, he saw Lina's figure quickly disappear from his sight. Seeing this situation, well, he didn't need to say anything. He shook his head helplessly and continued to chop trees.

...

Watching another big tree fall, Lin En wiped his sweat. How many trees was this? Looking back, he saw only a clearing with tree stumps. Although he didn't know how many trees he had chopped, he opened his backpack and saw that he already had more than ten thousand wood. If he counted fifty per tree, he had chopped nearly two hundred trees?

He opened his character panel and looked at it. He found that it was almost 12 o'clock. It was noon already. Lin En put away the axe and prepared to find Lina.

Just as he was about to set off, he saw Lina walking out of the jungle, holding something in her arms.

...

Looking at the mushrooms, wild fruits, and wild vegetables in her arms, Lina felt like she couldn't hold them anymore, so she walked towards Lin En's location. She wandered around and quickly came to a clearing. Wow, how many trees did he chop?

Soon, Lina saw Lin En walking towards her. In a little while, he came to her side and looked at her, saying, "Here, Lin En, I picked a lot of ingredients. Hurry up and make something delicious."

ლ(´ڡ`ლ)

Looking at Lina's greedy expression, Lin En touched her head, led her to a clearing, manifested the homeland, and walked in together. He watched Lina put the ingredients into the vegetable washing basin, and seeing that her clothes were all dirty, he told her to take a shower.

He glanced at Lina, who went to take a bath with a hop, skip, and a jump. He came to the kitchen to see what ingredients there were. Oh, there were quite a few. Let me see... there were mushrooms, wild vegetables, um, this was... chestnuts? Oh, there were even potatoes. After looking at them, Lin En thought for a moment, came to the Mist Treasure Chest, and took out two portions of premium thigh meat.

Returning to the kitchen, he looked at the ingredients. He thought about it and decided to make curry. He wondered if Lina would like it? Um~, and a fruit salad.

After deciding, Lin En quickly became busy, and took out ten eggs from his backpack to boil.

Ugh~, there was no rice. He looked at the curry in the pot. Without rice, the curry wouldn't taste good. He opened [Trade] to look for some. Soon he found several stores selling rice. He found one that exchanged meat for rice. He took out two portions of thigh meat from the Mist Treasure Chest to exchange for twenty *jin* of rice. Looking at the good appearance of the rice, he directly cooked enough for three people.

...

Time passed quietly.

Lin En put the finished curry, rice, and fruit salad in place one by one.

Um? Was she still not done washing? He was just about to call Lina, but after taking a few steps, he saw the blanket on the mist bed bulging.

...

Coming to the bedside, Lin En found that the pillow was a little wet. Following the water stains, he quickly found the reason.

Touching Lina's emerald green hair, which was still wet, Lin En had no choice but to run to get a dry towel. Looking at Lina, who was looking at him with big eyes, he said in annoyance, "You don't even know how to dry your hair before running to bed? You've wet the pillow and blanket."

He pulled Lina up and prepared to dry her hair. Sigh... looking at her smooth shoulders, Lin En was speechless. She wasn't wearing clothes again? After quickly drying her hair, he said to Lina, "Alright, put on your clothes and come eat."

After speaking, he left the bedside and sat down on the sofa. Sigh... he patted his slightly hot face and complained. If this continued, he would become a werewolf.

"Werewolf? What werewolf?"

Lina, who didn't know when she had come over, asked curiously.

Lin En glanced at Lina, who had put on her clothes, rolled his eyes, and said, "Nothing, nothing. Let's eat."

"Oh."

...

Sitting on the sofa, watching Lin En clean up the dishes, Lina touched her stomach and said, "Hey, Lin En, this curry doesn't look like much, but I didn't expect it to be quite delicious."

Looking at Lina, who had a little curry on the corner of her mouth, he wiped it off for her and said, "Of course. Don't you know who made it? How could it not be delicious?"

After cleaning up, Lin En came out of the kitchen and said to Lina, who was sitting on the sofa, "Alright, let's go. Let's go to the next dungeon."

...

Putting away the Life Tree House, Lin En asked the stone walls what was behind them. After asking, he grabbed Lina and walked towards the southern stone wall.

They walked slowly through the jungle, having just eaten, and they didn't need to rush to digest. Along the way, they also picked some ingredients, such as mushrooms, potatoes, and chestnuts.

Slowly, they came to the stone wall. Lin En took out his pickaxe and started digging, and quickly dug through.

Looking at the faint white mist wall in front of him, Lin En grabbed Lina and walked in. With a switch from dark to light, they arrived at the new dungeon.
