Chapter 39: Chapter 39: Shelter Construction Plan

Building a shelter, this matter is actually not complicated.

A few days ago, the wealthy and political figures living in Wushan Kunwu Villa District were all picked up by the military.

Now, in the entire villa district, only Lin Yuan’s villa is occupied.

Using the entire villa district as a foundation, it’s just a matter of transforming it into a small shelter.

Although Lin Yuan intends to cultivate his own forces, even while doing so, he won’t support idle people.

Therefore, the shelter doesn’t need to be too large, as long as it can accommodate a few thousand people.

The purpose of Lin Yuan constructing this shelter is to gather some Life Pattern Masters with powerful tattoos who are difficult to awaken early on.

In the past life, many of these had powerful tattoos, but the deceitful Qi needed for awakening was immense.

Precisely because of this, they couldn’t survive until their tattoos awakened and died at the hands of Deceitful Charms and Evil Spirits.

Once the shelter is built, Lin Yuan can selectively choose some Life Pattern Masters with powerful tattoos that are hard to awaken early and recruit them as his subordinates.

Under Lin Yuan’s protection, they should be able to awaken their tattoo abilities quickly.

To avoid tragedies where powerful tattoos that require significant deceitful Qi fail to awaken their abilities and die at the hands of Deceitful Evil Spirits.

....

"Swish!"

"Swish! Swish!"

The sound of a pen tip rubbing against paper rang out as Geng Youcai’s hand flew across it.

At this moment, a faint outline of the Lu Ban tattoo transforming into a spirit body could be seen behind him.

Evidently, Geng Youcai, who was drawing now, had already utilized the tattoo ability.

When they used the tattoo ability, the image of the tattoo transforming into a spirit would appear.

Looking at the Lu Ban spirit body behind Geng Youcai, Lin Yuan knew he’d struck gold.

If he had sided with the authorities, he would certainly be considered top talent.

Auxiliary Life Pattern Masters are far rarer than combat-oriented ones.

It’s even fair to say they’re rarer than pandas.

Geng Youcai was drawing quickly, finishing a sheet of paper in mere minutes before moving to the next.

After about half an hour, he’d filled over a dozen sheets of white paper before stopping.

"Boss Lin, it’s done!" Geng Youcai handed the drawn plans to Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan took the drawings and examined them sheet by sheet, Wen Yingying also leaned in to examine them together.

Lin Yuan had struggled in an official shelter for three years in his past life, so he was very familiar with them.

Tall walls made of reinforced concrete, electric grids over the walls, and numerous high-tech weapons.

The further towards the center from the walls, the safer the residential areas.

Based on Lin Yuan’s hard-earned experience from three years of struggle.

The official shelter, while impressive and towering in appearance, was not actually very functional.

The main reason for the shelter’s safety was due to the numerous Life Pattern Masters stationed inside.

The high walls, electric grids, and powerful high-tech weapons were useful against zombies, skeletons, and some small creatures with physical forms.

But against Evil Spirits and Deceitful Charms, they were utterly useless.

This is why areas closer to the walls were more dangerous, and the center more secure.

Firstly, there were surely more Life Pattern Masters stationed in the center.

Secondly, Evil Spirits and Deceitful Charms aren’t picky eaters.

Once these Evil Spirits and Deceitful Charms came over the walls, they’d eat anyone they found!

After feasting at the walls’ edge, naturally, they wouldn’t venture further inside.

This is why Lin Yuan was somewhat wary of official shelters.

Having struggled for three years in his past life, nobody knew official shelters better than he did.

Official shelters were not the paradise ordinary people imagined!

The shelter designed by Geng Youcai was entirely different from the concrete-steel style of official shelters.

This particular plan used wood and stone as the primary building materials.

Overall, it looked like an ancient palace.

Furthermore, it incorporated Qimen Dunjia, Mechanical Art, and more.

All could be collectively termed as Lu Ban Skill.

Having awakened the Lu Ban tattoo, Geng Youcai could easily employ Lu Ban Skill using his awakened ability.

This shelter built with Qimen Dunjia and Mechanical Art would encounter Deceitful Wall when Evil Spirits and Deceitful Charms came.

Making deceit meet Deceitful Wall — this idea was genuinely clever.

It’s akin to Bulbasaur eating a crunchy snack, entering a mousy house — truly marvelous!

After going through all the drawings, Lin Yuan laid them down on the table.

Geng Youcai felt slightly uneasy; this was his highest standard after using the tattoo ability.

If Lin Yuan wasn’t satisfied with these plans, he would have no alternatives.

"Oh!" Just after Lin Yuan placed the drawings down, Wen Yingying exclaimed in surprise, "I’ve seen this building somewhere."

Geng Youcai: "????"

Lin Yuan: "?????"

Lin Yuan and Geng Youcai were dumbfounded, especially Geng Youcai.

Geng Youcai had just drawn these plans, how could Wen Yingying have seen them before?

As for Lin Yuan, he also disbelieved it.

In fairness, Geng Youcai’s plans had some merit.

Following those plans to build a shelter could navigate most dangers Lin Yuan experienced in his three years before reincarnation.

Wen Yingying claiming she’d seen it was absolutely impossible.

Unless Wen Yingying was also a reincarnator, and lived longer after the invasion than Lin Yuan.

But based on her past behavior, she evidently was not a reincarnator.

Just then, Wen Yingying pulled out her phone and opened Tencent Video.

"Look, it’s this!" Wen Yingying pointed at the scene on the screen.

Seeing the screen, Lin Yuan’s face turned dark.

Qin Shi Mingyue anime.

Mo Family’s Mechanical City.

Truth be told, Geng Youcai’s design resembled Mo Family’s Mechanical City from Qin Shi Mingyue in appearance.

Of course, only the architectural style was similar, inherently they were completely different.

"Watch less drama!" Lin Yuan glared at Wen Yingying, replying irritably.

Then he asked Geng Youcai, "According to these plans, how long would it take to build?"

"Half a year!" Geng Youcai thought for a moment and gave a timeframe.

This shelter can only be built by Geng Youcai alone; ordinary craftsmen with unawakened tattoo abilities can’t reach this level.

Even with awakened tattoo abilities, Geng Youcai alone could equate to dozens, if not hundreds, of craftsmen.

However, building such a shelter would also take a significant amount of time.
