Chapter 717: Chapter 468: Comprehensive Training Ground, Knowledge Is Strength

By then, the heavy ice layer will block the gate.

Forming a roadway completely made of solid ice.

Zong Shen stood for a while, looking out the window.

Through the change in light and shadow, it’s evident that the ice layer outside is accumulating at a visible speed.

The pitch-dark night has been blurred considerably by the ice layer.

After gazing for tens of seconds, he finally withdrew his gaze.

The arrival of the super-chilled water ice rain is an inevitable process of the third stage of Frosty Winter.

Zong Shen cannot prevent the arrival of the ice rain, he can only passively choose to keep watching.

"Looks like I’ll have to jump from the terrace again tomorrow..."

He turned his head and said softly to Luna.

The door of the Lord’s Small Tower is an outward opening door, which will inevitably be affected.

But it doesn’t matter; Zong Shen is experienced with jumping from the building.

Just jump again tomorrow morning.

No matter how intense this super-chilled ice rain is, it will never completely freeze the terrace on the second or even the third floor.

He then focused his attention and began to review the fifth building blueprint.

[Tier Four Ironwood Barrier Construction Blueprint]

[Quality: Refined Human Building]

[Requirements: Wood ×120, Iron ×50, Coarse Forged Iron Thorns ×10, Hemp Rope ×5]

[Size: 1.8 meters high × 5 meters long]

[Durability Value: 1500]

[Building Armor: 20]

[Piercing Damage: 63~67]

[Used to build a temporary defense line, has some intimidation and deterrence effects on large riding beasts]

[Construction Time: 36 minutes]

(Large barrier, more intimidating than wooden barriers, with iron thorns and weight providing some impact resistance.)

The fifth blueprint is an advanced version of the barrier, requiring no prerequisite building.

In other words, it can be directly built into a tier four barrier without needing a tier three barrier.

For such temporary defensive works, Zong Shen only has road barriers.

He once saw a tier one barrier in Jiang Yi’s territory.

In summary, this thing is also suitable as a defensive supplement for the territory.

The so-called Coarse Forged Iron Thorns are simple iron forged products.

The quality is only Whiteboard Level, and the Dwarf Uncle can easily forge them.

These materials all belong to the secondary processed materials, different from the common raw materials like iron, wood, stone, and hemp.

There’s still much to research in the material system of this world.

These also need to be explored step by step, and will naturally achieve success with time.

He skillfully placed his palm on the construction blueprint, choosing to activate mastery.

The blueprint instantly bloomed into a ball of white light, rising into the air and spiraling into his Celestial Spirit.

Zong Shen twisted his neck, standing for a long time made his cervical vertebrae a bit stiff. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Simply pulling a chair over, he sat down.

Luna thoughtfully stood behind him, her soft little hands resting beside his neck, starting to massage him with measured relaxation.

Now there are still four blueprints left, once these last four are reviewed, the gains from these twenty-six treasure chests will come to an end, and what’s left will need time to slowly digest them.

Gradually turning these equipment, items, blueprints into power for territorial development.

He also spent the whole day outside today, and killed over a hundred Captain Level icefield beasts.

Killing those beasts for Zong Shen is like slaughtering chickens and dogs, but it’s unavoidable with large quantities.

Enduring the repeated temperature fluctuations while traversing outside, he even has to kill icefield monsters.

Even an iron body would feel fatigued.

Upon returning to the territory, he didn’t rest, immediately started sorting out the treasure chest items with Luna.

It’s also the first time Zong Shen has continuously opened so many treasure chests.

Opening, sorting, classifying, reviewing, planning.

The steps proceeded in an orderly manner until now, further adding to his fatigue.

This is truly a sweet burden!

When the territory’s scale expands further in the future, just sorting materials will be no small task.

By then, more Heroic Level talents will be needed to assist with logistics management.

But when that time comes, I estimate the territorial management system will have taken shape, forming a self-consistent circle from bottom to top.

He yawned, Luna’s massage improved his spirit somewhat.

"The last four blueprints, finish inspecting them then call it a day!"

"Luna, go boil some hot water, I’m a bit thirsty."

Zong Shen placed his hand on the back of his neck, pressing over Luna’s hand that was massaging him.

Speaking in a fatigued yet gentle tone.

Frosty Winter climate brings not only temperature drop, but also severe dryness.

Skin, lips are starting to show obvious cracking.

To alleviate such symptoms, he used oil balm made from boiling cattle and sheep fats on his skin.

These fats can prevent skin moisture loss as much as possible.

The effect is similar to applying moisturizing cream in winter.

Of course, due to formula issues, these oils are not only unpleasant in smell, the moisturizing effect is quite average.

Zong Shen’s lips are now very cracked, with the deepest crack even having bloodstains.

These are all impacts caused by the Frosty Winter Period.

Hence he needs to drink water frequently to replenish body moisture.

Luna obediently walked to the kitchen, where there’s a square water tank.

Ensuring the water needs of the Lord’s Small Tower.

Listening to the sound of ladling water from the kitchen, watching the shadow of flames on the stove.

Zong Shen turned his head, looking at the remaining four blueprints on the table.

Reaching out to touch his slightly oily face.

Bringing all four blueprints to the front, he began to rapidly review them.
