Bringing a System to the Beast World

Chapter 358 Everything is Ready
Wu Yue was very happy when the bricks and tiles were successfully fired. She immediately nodded and said, "The broken ones can't be used. You can take them."

Upon hearing this, the surrounding females looked at Green Grass and Aya with envy.

They dared to ask for it so directly because they had a good relationship with Wu Yue.

However, the surrounding females dared not. Although Wu Yue was very kind to her people, her status was different now. Although she was not as noble as the Snow Tiger Witch, she was still a high-ranking witch.

They could only look longingly at the bricks and tiles being carried out one by one before rushing towards Aya and Qingcao, who had already received the beautiful stones.

The cheers of the little females continued to rise.

"Moon, is this what you use to build your stone houses?"

Snow Tiger Witch looked at Yuan Lang, who had to use a lot of force to break the broken piece, and her eyes were full of light.

Wu Yue took a piece and handed it to Wu: "I used to live in a cave. Teng Kun found this kind of soil when we were building a cellar. We tried to fire it, and we didn't expect it to be so hard."

Wu nodded in satisfaction, took the brick Wu Yue handed him into his arms, and with a lithe gait completely different from usual, swiftly returned to the cave.

Wu Yue: "."

So you just wanted a brick?

Next, the task of building the kiln and firing bricks was handed over to Teng Qian, while Teng Kun led a group of scorpion beastmen, who were once again tempted by the delicious food, to begin the stone mining project.

Looking at his scorpion tail, which was clearly not as sharp and shiny as before, the irritable orc wanted to curse, but when he thought of the food promised by that terrifying little female, his mouth watered uncontrollably.

Wu Yue then led Yuan Lang to the foot of the mountain where it had collapsed earlier.

The entire mountain was being gnawed by those yellow ants, so the two of them easily found some ant eggs.

Returning to the place where the slaves made the bricks and tiles, they crushed the ant eggs in the stone bowl, mixed them with clay and water.

Only then did they take two bricks to conduct the experiment.

"When did the mud on the bottom of your boots solidify?" Yuan Lang asked Wu Yue.

"I don't know the exact time, but I only discovered it when I woke up."

After calculating the time, Yuan Lang nodded: "Then we'll come back to check after we've eaten tonight."

Wu Yue glanced at the soil between the two bricks, which was mixed with yellow ant eggs, and felt a surge of anticipation.

However, when the two came to check on it that evening, the soil, though somewhat dry, had no binding force whatsoever.

Yuan Lang easily separated the two bricks with a little force.

The expectation in Yuan Lang's eyes instantly cooled: "It seems it's not an ant egg."

Wu Yue nodded with some disappointment: "Yeah, but I really did step on ant eggs yesterday, that's why the dirt stuck to my shoes!"

She suddenly exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be because of the soil?"

Yuan Lang pursed his lips: "Let's give it a try. We can't let any possibility slip by."

After saying that, he got up and walked towards the cave, specifically looking for a place with severe collapse.

They dug up the soil and carried it back, then divided it into two portions. One portion was mixed with ant eggs and water, while the other portion was simply mixed with water to form mud.

They took four bricks and glued them together with two different types of clay, but this time, they didn't leave.

The next moment, a pleasant surprise happened. I thought I would have to wait a long time, but the soil dried very quickly and its color became much lighter.

The two exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Yuan Lang placed his large hand on the brick mixed with ant eggs, and lifted both bricks up. The eyes of the two men shone even brighter.

He held the two bricks in his hands and tried several times before he finally managed to pry them apart.

Wu Yue, who was standing to the side, was grinning from ear to ear. According to her observation, the force Yuan Lang used to break the two bricks was definitely much greater than the force he used to break a single brick yesterday.

The other brick was the same; its stickiness was no different from that of soil with ant eggs added.

In other words, what truly acts as the adhesive is the waste soil that is devoured and excreted by the yellow ants.

With bricks and tiles in hand, adhesives ready, and the foundation firmly laid, how far away can a brick house be?
The group had been waiting for this for a long time, so naturally they were quite impatient.

In the following period, they began to focus on making bricks and tiles, and Tengqian worked very hard to produce several brick kilns.

When they all start burning at the same time, the efficiency is naturally top-notch.

A few days later, Wu Yue bribed Xuehu Wu with bricks and tiles to get several orc warriors who had previously followed Yuan Lang.

These orc warriors were very obedient to Yuan Lang's orders. After a few days of training, a new batch of orc warriors were trained to fire bricks and tiles.

The unfortunate scorpion orc was relegated to mining stones.

Wu Yue, Yuan Lang, and the Teng Qian and Teng Kun brothers then began the construction of the world's first brick and tile house.

Although the fired bricks and tiles were sturdy enough, considering the strength of the wild beasts and ferocious creatures present, they still built two layers, making the walls thicker than the orcs' bodies.

The tribespeople watched as Yuan Lang and the Teng Qian and Teng Kun brothers glued the pretty little bricks together with mud, and gradually a neat and thick wall appeared before them.

Now, it wasn't just the slaves and their people who were watching; even some orc warriors who hadn't paid much attention before started to gather around.

It can only be said that General Yuan Lang, who transmigrated with a cheat code, has two capable deputy generals under his command. They even made the doors and windows without Wu Yue having to say anything.

The Snow Tiger tribe members were puzzled as they looked at the strange object surrounded by beautiful stones, with two holes, one large and one small, on one side.

What is this?

However, some of the orc warriors who had switched the salt were filled with shock.

The houses built by Yuan Lang, just by looking at them, are much more beautiful than the stone houses they have ever seen.

Moreover, the rooftops are different.

The roofs of those super-large tribes were all covered with a few stone slabs, but the roof of Yuan Lang's group had a very thick tree trunk in the middle.

"Leave the roof to me," Teng Qian said excitedly, patting his chest.

After saying that, he climbed onto the roof using the makeshift ladder he had made.

Wu Yue leaned closer to Yuan Lang and whispered, "Is Teng Qian okay?"

Although the sound was soft, Teng Kun, who was standing nearby, could still hear it.

Before his eldest son could answer, he laughed and said, "Don't worry, Yue, my brother and I have helped the uncle next door repair his roof quite a bit."

Upon hearing this, Wu Yue laughed and said, "I thought you were fixing your own roof."

Teng Kun smiled bitterly: "We can't afford to live in brick houses. Only the better-off families in the village can afford to build those."

My brother and I lived in the village chief's old house. The walls were made of mud bricks mixed with hay, and the roof was also covered with hay.

It leaks every time it rains.

Upon hearing this, Wu Yue pursed her lips. It seemed they all came from impoverished backgrounds.

Teng Qian laid the roof on top, while Teng Kun and Yuan Lang were responsible for passing the materials up.

Amidst this busy activity, it quickly grew dark.

"Go and rest first, we'll continue tomorrow."

Hearing Yuan Lang's voice, Wu Yue finally realized how sore her legs were; she had been standing there all day. The rooftop was empty; Teng Qian and Teng Kun were sitting to one side, munching on flatbreads, looking extremely hungry.

Wu Yue rubbed her eyes and nodded, saying, "You should all get some rest too. We'll continue building tomorrow."

Yuan Lang nodded: "Go and rest."

He didn't leave, but stood there watching Wu Yue go back.

But Qingcao and Aya, who had been watching for a long time, couldn't contain their curiosity and rushed over, one holding a fragrant dumpling soup and the other holding a freshly cooked pancake.

"moon!"

"Moon, eat!"

Wu Yue looked at her two friends, whose intentions were already written all over their faces, with amusement, and said, "Come in."

He then lifted the curtain of his tent and invited the two inside.

Wu Yue was also quite hungry, and after wolfing down her food, she wiped her mouth and looked at the two people scratching their heads.

"Ask whatever you want."

Green Grass was the first to speak: "Moon, won't the houses you build with those beautiful stones collapse if you just push them down?"

"Yes, yes, it doesn't look very sturdy. Will you be living in a house like this from now on?"

Wu Yue looked at the two of them: "Those houses in those super-large tribes are also built of stone, and they haven't collapsed!"

Green Grass and Aya shook their heads in unison: "How can your little stones compare to their boulders? Stone houses are built with stones taller than the beastmen."

The orc warriors say that any ordinary wild beast that runs into it will be instantly killed.

Very well, you've even learned how to die.

Wu Yue raised her chin and said proudly, "Our houses won't collapse even if the beastmen crash into them."

His boastful words only earned him two friends looking at him like he was crazy.

Wu Yue was furious. She stood up, grabbed the two men's animal skin clothes, and threw them out: "Hurry up and go home. It's an eyesore to see them like this."

With those two troublesome things gone and the house going to be completed tomorrow, Wu Yue couldn't be more excited.

She cheered, lay back in her grass nest, opened the system panel, and looked at the task completion progress bar, which showed that it was 95% complete.

Wu Yue rolled around excitedly in the grass for a long time, and gradually fell asleep with a smile on her lips.

Just then, the backpack around her waist moved, and Tongzi's fluffy little head poked out.

Seeing its host's unrestrained sleeping posture, sprawled out, it patted its head with its little paws in annoyance.

Suddenly, I felt a pang of sadness, like a mother worrying that Yuan Lang might dislike this kind of host in the future!
After thinking it over, he snorted arrogantly. With his system around, if Yuan Lang dared to complain about his dog host, he would use his spare points to exchange for things to teach him a lesson.

Thinking of the pocket points, looking at the pitiful number in my account, and browsing the exorbitant prices of items in the system shop.

Suddenly, Tongzi realized that she needed to start saving money.

Without Tongzi's series of random thoughts, the exhausted Wu Yue slept soundly until dawn.

Outside the tent, the busy footsteps of the tribespeople could be heard, and in the distance, the laughter of little cubs playing and frolicking could be heard.

Everything is so beautiful.
No, aren't we supposed to continue building houses today?

The thought of the house instantly banished any lingering sleepiness.

She got up to wash up and eat; she had never been this proactive when receiving her salary in her past life.

He picked up the still-sleeping blue chubby boy and rushed out of the tent, but the moment he lifted the tent flap, he saw the house that had already stood on the tribe's territory not far away.

Unlike yesterday, it now has a roof that reflects beautiful light in the sun.

Wu Yue smiled broadly and quickened her pace as she ran toward the house.

The brothers Yuan Lang and Teng Qian and Teng Kun were still covered in mud and looked somewhat disheveled, but their eyes shone brightly as they looked at the tall house in front of them.

The tribespeople who hadn't yet gone out hunting or gathering all exclaimed in surprise and discussed it amongst themselves.

"The witch is here."

Someone shouted, and a path opened up among the tribespeople who had surrounded the house. The Snow Tiger Shaman, with a slightly hunched figure, walked in, leaning on his shaman's staff.

The moment he saw the tall building in front of him, a light appeared in his deep eyes.

"Is this the house you built?"

He looked directly at Wu Yuedao.

Wu Yue nodded: "Yes."

The Snow Tiger Chieftain, standing to the side, looked at the house built of stones and began to doubt its sturdiness. He was not alone in having such doubts among the orc warriors.

Wu Yue naturally knew everyone's hesitation, so she turned to look at the hunting team and asked, "Is there anyone from the tribe who wants to test the sturdiness of this house?"

The males looked at each other.

Finally, Shi Lin stepped out, holding the stone spear, and smiled at Wu Yue, saying, "I'll do it, Yue."

But just as he was about to step out, a tall and strong orc warrior blocked his way from behind.

The orc warrior stepped forward and said, "I am the strongest in the tribe, let me give it a try."

Wu Yue nodded: "Okay."

The orc handed the stone spear to Shi Lin beside him and walked to the wall.

He reached out and pushed lightly.

Smiles appeared in the eyes of the tribespeople. In everyone's eyes, this house built of small stones would definitely collapse with a single push.

But to their disappointment, no matter how hard the strong orc pushed, the wall didn't even budge, let alone collapse.

Now, not only the Snow Tiger tribe members, but even the Poison Scorpion tribe orc warriors who were spying from a distance showed deep surprise in their eyes.

"It looks pretty sturdy!"

"Just standing there and pushing won't work, try ramming it!"

A member of the clan shouted.

Upon hearing this, the orc warrior withdrew his large hand that had been pushing against the wall, stepped back a dozen paces, roared, and rammed into the wall.

"Oh!"

A dull thud was heard, and then silence fell over the front of the house.

The orcs' charge did not damage the stone wall built of individual stones, but
Everyone's gaze shifted downwards, looking at the robust orc warrior who was crouching in the corner, clutching a large bump on his head and sobbing. A hint of sympathy appeared in their eyes at the same time.

It's not that you're not tough enough; it's just that the wall is too hard.

Wu Yue chuckled as she walked over to the orc warrior, placing her hand on the large bump on the orc's head. With a surge of witch power, the intense pain was soothed.
