The whole nation is trying to survive on the cable car; I'm choosing one of three options at ea

Su Mu stood in the gray-white space of the arena, with the confirmation panel for the fourth challenge floating in front of him.

The first three matches were not difficult for him; he didn't even play them seriously.

The seventh-ranked monster was a level 10 purple humanoid monster with decent speed and flashy skills. However, when faced with Su Mu's weakness lock, those moves were like having their skeletons ripped out, and it didn't last more than two minutes.

The fourth one was a bit more troublesome. It was also a level 10 purple weapon with extremely high defense and a counter-damage effect. Su Mu used his shadow clone to test its counter-damage mechanism. After confirming the trigger conditions, he directly used the gap in the opponent's attack to send the spear into its throat.

Then comes the first.

Su Mu looked at the information of the first place winner.

[Sandstorm King (Lv10, Yellow)... An elite creature of the desert environment. Possesses the ability to manipulate sand to form armor and weapons, greatly enhancing its combat effectiveness in arid terrain.]

"Level 10, Yellow," Su Mu murmured.

He flexed his wrists and stepped into the teleportation screen.

The battlefield simulates desert terrain, with endless yellow sand. There is no sun overhead, and light shines down from all directions, making every grain of sand appear white.

When the Sandstorm King rises from the back of the dunes, the entire ground is flowing.

The sand and gravel seemed to be drawn to it, converging on its surface to form a constantly writhing carapace. Two curved blades made of compressed sand extended from the ends of its arms, their edges rough but shimmering with a faint yellow glow.

Su Mu did not rush to go up.

He first created some distance and observed for three seconds.

The Sandstorm King's attack methods relied more on the terrain than he had anticipated.

With each step it takes, the sand beneath its feet is sucked up like water, forming a rotating sand curtain around it, obscuring its vision and deflecting ranged attacks to some extent.

When those two sand blades are swung, they smash deep craters into the ground, and the sand that is kicked up shoots out in all directions like shrapnel, each one carrying considerable penetrating power.

"Something suitable for a war of attrition," Su Mu judged.

He didn't give the opponent a chance to wear him down.

The Ancient King's Battle Blood was activated, and three-colored light surged on his body, while his silver-white hair left a clear trail in the wind and sand.

At the same time, a shadow clone materialized behind him and, without any hesitation, cut directly into the Sandstorm King's flank.

Su Mu himself charged forward from the front.

The Sandstorm King clearly hadn't expected Su Mu to suddenly unleash such speed.

It swung its left-hand sand blade, creating a sand wall over ten meters high in an attempt to block the enemy coming from the front, but Su Mu's spear tip was not stopped the moment it touched the sand wall...

His Weakness Detection talent allowed him to spot the weakest point in the sand wall at a glance. His spear pierced through that spot, tearing a gap in the sand wall.

The shadow clone circled around to the Sandstorm King's back from the flank, thrusting out its spear at the exact same angle as Su Mu's main body, landing precisely at the seam of its shoulder armor.

The two spears pierced in from two directions simultaneously, and a penetrating crack appeared on the Sandstorm King's carapace in that instant.

It tried to fight back, its right hand sweeping across with a sand blade, the resulting gust of wind tearing up a large section of sand. Su Mu didn't take the blow head-on; instead, he stomped his foot and retreated more than ten meters away.

The shadow clone was faster than him, circling outside the Sandstorm King's attack range, readjusting its posture, and then cutting in again.

For the next two minutes, Su Mu deliberately gave the main attacking position to the shadow clone.

He only provides finishing blows at crucial moments, or uses a charged attack to tear apart the sand armor that the opponent has just condensed.

"The weakness is in the third cervical vertebra, which is slightly to the left of the body's midline."

Su Mu transmitted a command to the shadow clone through the contract.

Without any hesitation, the clone thrust its spear into the seam of the Sandstorm King's cervical spine from the rear, shattering the sand armor that was still reforming.

Simultaneously activated, with the Ancient King's Battle Blood fully unleashed, the Overlord Spear, with its fully charged power amplified, pierced through the Sandstorm King's chest from the front.

The body made of sand lost its core in that instant, and began to disintegrate from the chest outwards. The entire body collapsed like a sand sculpture blown away by the wind, turning into countless tiny particles in the air and falling back to the ground with a soft rustling sound.

[Challenge successful. Current ranking: 1. Rewards being calculated.]

Su Mu sheathed his gun, and his shadow clone slowly dissipated beside him.

The whole thing took less than three minutes.

And just as he planned, most of the offensive actions were carried out by shadow clones.

This made him even more certain of one thing...

The shadow clone's combat instincts are completely inherited from the original body. It only needs a clear command to independently carry out high-intensity offensive missions.

The only cost was still the depletion of mental energy, but the pace of the battle was fast enough that I only lost about 10% of my mental energy throughout the entire battle.

Su Mu glanced at the arena reward list, but didn't look at it in detail before exiting the space.

The teleportation light curtain dispersed, and he reappeared in the cable car.

He was stunned for a moment at first glance.

The cable car was the same cable car, but he almost didn't recognize it.

Everything has been rearranged.

The weapon accessories on the rack were arranged by size, and consumables were bundled together with strips of cloth of different colors and stored in the storage compartments against the wall. Old equipment was neatly folded and piled on boxes in the corner.

After the tools next to the planting platform were used up, they were all hung on a horizontal bar, and even the few thin tendrils that had grown out of the blood ginseng pot were gently pushed back to the soil surface.

Well-organized.

Su Mu used to think that although his things weren't exactly tidy, at least they "didn't look messy." Now that Lin Yuwei had tidied up, he realized that what he really thought was chaos.

Lin Yuwei was standing in a corner of the cable car, with a plain-colored curtain drawn in front of her.

The curtain wasn't large, covering a small space of about two square meters, beneath which were her backpack and a few neatly folded clothes.

The other half square meter is a small den for the little leopard.

"Those are my things." Seeing Su Mu return, she pointed towards the curtain, her voice very soft, "My own private space. Just a little bit of room."

Su Mu nodded without asking any further questions.

Just as he was about to say something, he caught a glimpse of a new system notification on the dashboard out of the corner of his eye. He casually clicked on it.

Then he froze.

[Comfort +40. Current comfort level: 62.]

Su Mu stared at that number for several seconds, then reopened the comfort details and checked them one by one.

家具加成：豪华水床10点，豪华马桶1点。建筑基础：五级缆车自带10点。环境整洁加成：10点。合宿状态（赏心悦目）加成：+30。

Su Mu's Adam's apple bobbed.

In other words, after Lin Yuwei moved in, she alone increased the comfort level of the cable car by 30.
