That's amazing survival skills!

"good!"

Gu Siyu and Wang Xi immediately sprang into action, using axes and clubs to chop and pry. The ball of light landed on the ground and was immediately added to their equipment inventory.

Compared to Lin Yuan's efficiency, Wang Xi is still too slow.

Wooden door?

cut!

houses?

hack!

Everything he sees must become a pattern and number in his inventory.

Gu Siyu was quite quick and efficient. The steel pipe struck the sheet metal, making a creaking sound. A notch appeared in the sheet metal, and she pushed down along the notch.

The sheet metal fell to the ground and turned into a ball of light that was picked up.

In less than ten minutes, a wooden house was reduced to just a few beams and pillars.

Wang Xi was already bloodthirsty, raising his iron axe to chop down the beam.

The axe was deeply embedded in the beam, and he struggled to pull it outwards, becoming somewhat out of breath from exhaustion.

Lin Yuan noticed that the beam was made entirely of solid wood, and splitting it with an axe would waste a lot of time and the yield would be unstable.

The most crucial issue.

They only have a little over six hours left, and they can't afford to waste that time on this pillar.

"Don't bother with this stuff. It's a waste of time, and the firewood production won't be much either." Lin Yuan carried the fire axe on his shoulder, pointed to the wooden house ahead, and said, "Let's go to the next place!"

Chopped wood and iron objects fell and turned into specks of light, which were then collected.

During this period, the three women began to "take turns resting," but the progress did not fall behind.

It took four people more than five hours to clear out more than thirty houses, leaving only the last one.

Han Miao squatted down, stroking the arm that was swollen from blood stasis, and rotating the joints of the shoulder. "So tired."

Wang Xi stretched her neck and heard a cracking sound as she felt the soreness in her arms.

Gu Siyu walked over from a distance, took the iron axe from Han Miao, and said, "We only have one hour and ten minutes left to clear out the last house, and then we can get some rest."

"Then what are we waiting for?" The fire axe pointed forward and said, "Let's go!"

The three of them slowed down noticeably.

The surrounding door panels continuously transformed into specks of light.

With all the doors and windows closed, only the last wooden plank is still holding on.

"I'll do it."

From the beginning until now, no one has taken over his work. Although his arms are swollen and painful, he still has the initial strength.

Lin Yuan stepped forward and swung the fire axe in a wide arc.

With a cracking sound, a deep crack appeared on the template. After two or three blows with the axe, the wooden board broke irregularly and fell forward.

It crashed to the ground and broke into several pieces, but did not turn into points of light for a long time.

"Um?"

Wang Xi and Gu Siyu stepped forward, watching the dust gradually dissipate. "What happened?"

"I don't know, but there seems to be something down there."

When the wooden plank fell, in addition to the dull "thud," there was also a hollow sound, like being struck on a cellar floor.

Aww~~!

"Back off."

The three of them retreated in unison, their eyes fixed intently on the ground, now clear of smoke and dust and littered with debris.

There seems to be a crack there.

Click.

Click.

Larger pieces of wood were repeatedly pushed up and then fell down, and the things below wanted to come up, but seemed to lack the strength.

As the wooden planks rose and fell, the wind they created blew up the surrounding mud and dust.

"What...what the hell is that down there?" Wang Xi gritted her teeth, her body swaying slightly.

The moonlight overhead wasn't dark, but there wasn't a glimmer of light under the wooden planks, making it impossible to see what was hidden there. Judging from the sound, it must have been some kind of monster.

Give me the steel pipe.

"You're going to... open it?" Gu Siyu turned her head.

The figure blocking the way didn't turn around; its hand was outstretched behind it.

After hesitating for a moment, Gu Siyu finally handed the steel pipe to him and moved closer to Wang Xi.

"be safe."

"it is good."

Lin Yuan held a steel pipe in his left hand and a fire axe in his right. He took a deep breath, his eyes becoming serious. He planted the steel pipe on the ground and moved forward quietly.

Fortunately, there was no risk of landslides along the way.

As she got closer, Lin Yuan crouched down, steadying her heavy breathing, and could clearly feel her heart pounding with nervousness.

The steel pipe kept getting closer.

Although the area below is dangerous, it also represents an opportunity.

I learned from the skeleton monster I killed earlier that level and stats are the keys to survival in this world.

How could something that provides experience be without danger?

The undulating wooden planks were caught by the steel pipes and lifted upwards with force.

The wooden plank kept flipping in mid-air.

Before he could even see what it was, the fire axe was swung around in a wide arc with his right hand and chopped forward.

With a cracking sound, the skull monster's head, which was still hanging on, was instantly split open. The green ghost fire dissipated, and the entire skeleton collapsed, falling downwards with a crash.

You killed the skeleton, experience +10.

Aww~~!

It was as if Pandora's box had been opened.

Lin Yuan quickly stood up and stared at the not-so-large entrance below.

The scattered skeletons crashed down without causing any obstruction, and the skeletons in the dark passage behind began to spread wildly towards the entrance.

Ping pong!

The sound of the skeleton stepping on bone fragments was crisp yet chaotic.

Hearing this commotion, Wang Xi and Gu Siyu behind them felt their scalps tingle and couldn't even imagine how terrifying the number of creatures hidden below was.

"Lin Yuan, let's go back to the car quickly, it's too dangerous here."

"Danger?"

Lin Yuan wielded his axe with swift, decisive strokes, eliminating the skeletons that kept climbing over their companions' bones as if playing whack-a-mole.

Hearing the voices constantly adding experience points in my ears, I felt incredibly happy!

The entrance is narrow, barely wide enough for two skeletons to walk side by side at a time.

However, these mindless creatures scrambled to climb out, and only one head would peek out each time, making it a natural monster spawner.

"It's not dangerous at all, okay?"

"If you want to kill monsters and gain experience, this is the best place."

Wang Xi and Gu Siyu exchanged glances, hesitating whether to step forward, when they saw Lin Yuan still raising and lowering his axe, with no skeleton monsters rushing out at all.

With a gritted teeth.

Fight!

Wang Xi stood opposite, watching the dense horde of skeletons rushing outwards, and with his eyes closed, he raised the iron axe in his hand to chop.

It seems... not as difficult to accept as I imagined.

I cautiously opened my eyes, and there were still those densely packed skeletons, scrambling to climb outwards.

The guy who just died is probably already trampled into some patch of mud somewhere.

At the same time, a prompt appeared on the panel that seemed to appear out of nowhere in front of me.

You have killed a skeleton monster. Experience +10

"It really adds experience?!" Wang Xi exclaimed, looking at the skeletons again with a newfound excitement rather than disgust and fear. His movements became increasingly skillful.

"Give me back the steel pipe."

Hearing this, Gu Siyu naturally couldn't be left behind and reached out to ask for her equipment.

Instead of getting the steel pipe, he found his hand suddenly felt heavy.

Lin Yuan took a half step back, plopped down on the ground, and rubbed his sore arms. "You keep killing, I'll rest for a while."

The fire axe felt slightly heavy in my hand, but its destructive power was far greater than that of a steel pipe, and its armor-piercing effect was many times higher. I nodded and said, "Okay, you rest for a while. I'll take over when I get tired."

"Can."

Han Miao, who was pulling weeds to get fiber in the distance, saw the two men raising their axes and chopping downwards, while Lin Yuan, that damned dog, was sitting on the ground resting, and couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.

Looking back at the front of the car, I still had more than forty minutes left.

"What are these three doing?" Han Miao muttered as he walked forward.

"Oh dear, I can't take it anymore," Wang Xi said, her voice slightly breathless.

The prolonged swinging of the iron axe made her already sore arms even more sore, and it became increasingly difficult for her to raise and lower her hand. Sweat beaded on her fair forehead.

"Han Miao, come and take over for me."

The closer you get, the more obvious the ping-pong ball sounds become below.

Since the three of them dared to stand at the entrance, it proved that the monster below was not very strong, so they gritted their teeth and approached.

Then they heard Wang Xi's exhausted, panting voice, and the iron axe was handed to her in a daze.

Looking down, he got goosebumps and almost dropped the iron axe.

"There are...there are so many skeleton monsters?!"

"Did you guys destroy the skeleton monster's lair?"
