The Lord of Glimmer plants the sun in the eternal night.

He could modify simple objects like bows and arrows, traps, and crops with his bare hands.

But the [building] and [house] seem to think differently; they require [tools] and a [hammer] to make modifications.

As a civil engineer, Jiang Chuan thought it made a lot of sense.

Then, an idea struck him. He switched to the tools page and selected to activate the hammer's construction node.

This time, there was no rejection; the hazy light, like morning dew, poured onto that spot.

Suddenly, Jiang Chuan felt a sense of disorientation, something that had never happened before.

The next moment, a pale golden light came into view.

It was a slightly old, thick book with a pale purple pearlescent cover and a copper clasp, like a vessel for recording some kind of mysticism.

"Huh? Why are you out here?"

The very manual for studying low light has actually appeared in reality.

The pages could be turned at his will without being touched; however, apart from the known research pages, the rest seemed to be fused together and could not be moved.

Jiang Chuan guessed that it was probably related to new energy, such as "distortion power," which was a completely new research direction, entirely different from ether.

At this stage, it's best not to try it lightly.

He hesitated before reaching out, and the paper hanging in mid-air flipped open by itself, quickly stopping on the page with the tools.

A ripple spread across the paper, the water-like texture twisting and turning until it finally folded into a T-shaped groove.

An ordinary little wooden hammer emerged from the groove.

Jiang Chuan reached out and caught it. The solid wood-like feel and heavy weight told him that the Micro-Light Research Manual had indeed given him a hammer.

Is there a hammer hidden inside the book?

"What's with this 'The Shawshank Redemption'?"

Jiang Chuan was somewhat shocked, and also felt it was outrageous.

Could this be the real cheat code that I, a civil engineer, have gained after transmigrating?

Is this Hammer Time?

Jiang Chuan was about to ponder when his attention was drawn to something else.

【Wooden Hammer】

[Function: Construction]

[Effect: Consumes materials to construct a (Level 1) building.]

...

When he saw the function and effect of the hammer, his eyes immediately lit up, and an excited look appeared on his face.

"Does this mean I possess the 'Builder' trait?"

He was somewhat incredulous; he had actually been feeling conflicted these past two days.

The crux of the matter lies in the talent sequence.

He also knew that his talent sequence was farmer, or to put it nicely, "cultivator," but to put it bluntly, a stinking farmer.

It wasn't that he had any prejudice against this kind of profession. In fact, coming from a major agricultural country, he had great respect for this profession that provided life to countless people, and farming was something ingrained in his genes.

However, in this world of eternal night, the farmers are indeed among the lowest of the low, no different from ordinary people.

They planted crops using the fire spring and then sold them to "contractors" for a meager income.

This is the unchanging life of these kinds of people in this eternally dark world.

Compared to farmers and cooks, those in the medical profession and those who wield swords are of higher status.

Because they have more means, they can go anywhere and, if they are willing to sign a contract to join a certain force, they will receive a monthly salary.

There is a special example among them, namely the 'builder'. Unlike the cultivator who is a farmer or the cook who is a cook, the builder is not a farmer.

The builders were not workers, but real estate developers.

These sequences are of high status and are rare because they are able to create special buildings.

Whether it's the magnificent city walls of various cities or the defenses of various counties and towns, they all stem from the methods of the builders.

They can gather materials and build by groping their way through the blueprints proposed by the "researchers" and adding flint.

Once successfully constructed, this building will possess the strength to resist strange creatures and alien beings, ensuring the safety of large human settlements.

This is why the world didn't perish sooner.

And he, Jiang Chuan—

Given his level of expertise, if he had transmigrated here, he should at least have become a builder and a guest of honor for various powerful forces.

Unfortunately, they admitted him based on his first degree.

There's nothing we can do.

Fortunately, things are different now.

Having a wooden hammer is equivalent to becoming a 'builder'.

It's just that you can't gain proficiency through building, but on second thought, maybe farming is a faster way to level up?

No hair!

[Ether: 4]

Looking at the four points of ether, Jiang Chuan prepared to light up the two basic nodes of the [House].

After exhausting all his resources and activating both windproof and cold-proof functions, Jiang Chuan felt a strange, inexplicable change within himself, a change that required the hammer in his hand to unleash.

He picked up a hammer and went to the house to try to renovate the wooden cabin.

However, it was discovered that materials were still needed for the renovation.

[Level 0 Wooden House (Renovation requires (0/10) Wood)]

really.

Jiang Chuan understood what was going on when he saw this.

Previously, modifications to bows, traps, crops, etc., were all powered by energy provided in the manual, but houses are obviously different; they still require a physical structure.

He thought about it.

It's too much work to cut down the necessary timber on short notice.

We have to use another material.

It remains the all-powerful flint.

[Level 0 Wooden House (Renovation requires (0/1) Flintstones)]

...

Since you can get firestones every night, there's nothing to hesitate about.

Jiang Chuan immediately chose to renovate the wooden house.

thump—

A hammer gently tapped on the window.

In an instant, the wooden house was visibly changing, and a warm feeling spread out.

The wood grain of the house even subtly gleams, and the gaps in the log cabin seem to have been filled in, leaving no gaps.

In no time, the wooden house was transformed.

[Level 0 Wooden House (2/4)]

[Function: Can slightly absorb calories]

【Features: Level 1 windproof, Level 1 cold protection】

[Durability: 82/100]

...

Jiang Chuan checked the specific attributes of the wooden house.

The first thing is the level. The house is a whole, and there are still nodes for durability and warding off evil that haven't been lit up, so it's still level 0.

Then, his gaze fell on the new features, and he was very satisfied.

An unexpected delight that came about in an attempt to save time and effort.

The additional effects that occur when using flint to modify a wooden house will only result in certain properties, without any specific function, if only ordinary wood is used.

"Indeed, the world was created by lazy people."

"In this way, the wooden house can not only protect against the mountain winds and cold outside, but also prevent the heat inside from escaping."

"Ah Shui, what's going on?" Ye Xuan, who was inside the house, seemed to have been startled by the change and quickly ran out.

"It's nothing, just some house repairs," Jiang Chuan said with a smile.

Hearing Jiang Chuan's words, Ye Xuan was still shocked. Although she couldn't put it into words, she could clearly feel that the house had undergone some changes.

"Is this the new talent you've awakened, Ah Shui?" Ye Xuan's voice trembled.

"Your elder brother in heaven will surely be happy for you."

"I'm happy for you too."

"Yes, I won't let you down."

Jiang Chuan nodded, then looked at Ye Xuan's pretty face and said:

"Oh, right, sister-in-law, I'm a little hungry. I want to eat you..."
