Chapter 423: Chapter 359: The Warriors’ Daydreams (3)

After shuddering violently, it reluctantly opened its big, round eyes. "Host, you’re only this nice when you need something from me."

’If you were here to settle a score, you’d have grabbed me by the leg and started swinging me around already. I know you all too well.’

Unfazed by the disdain, Wu Yue shamelessly sidled closer. "Do you know how to build a heated bed?"

The System stumbled on its four paws. "My dear Host, do I look like I’ve slept on a heated bed before?"

Wu Yue: "..."

’No offense to your kind, but it’s not like a system really needs to sleep on a heated bed.’

But at a time like this, when she needed a favor from the System, she would never say that.

So, Wu Yue’s attitude was almost too good to be true. "I mean, I’ve only ever seen them on TV! I’ve never slept on one or studied how they work, so of course I don’t know!"

The System licked its little paw pads, sat up, and held out a chubby little paw.

Seeing this, Wu Yue reached out and grabbed its paw. The chubby little pads felt nice and soft.

She even gave it a little squeeze. It had a nice feel to it.

Dark lines of frustration appeared on the System’s face. "Host, why are you being a creep and grabbing my hand? I was telling you to cough up the points..."

Hearing this, Wu Yue gave a dry, awkward laugh and withdrew her hand with painstaking slowness, playing dumb. "Points? What for?"

Seeing its host’s act, the System snorted. "Heated bed blueprints. Fifty points. Permanent use."

Wu Yue’s face froze. ’What the hell? Do blueprints have an expiration date or something?’

"Fine, I’ll make the exchange!"

Grudgingly tucking the Beast Skin with the blueprint into her clothes, Wu Yue examined the drawing on it, the corner of her mouth twitching. "You damn System, why does this fifty-point blueprint look like a fly fell in an inkwell and then crawled all over the page?"

’And this abstract-looking blueprint cost me fifty points?’

The System gave her a look that said, ’You have the nerve to ask?’ "You have the gall to complain? Normal blueprints cost twenty points at most. But because the System had to trace this from *your* notes, I had to add a thirty-point labor fee."

Wu Yue: "..."

’Low damage, but maximum insult!’

’Are my drawings really that indescribably awful?’

To prove that her drawing skills weren’t as terrible as the System claimed, Wu Yue took out a new Beast Skin and carefully traced another copy.

But as she looked at the new drawing, whose lines were only marginally smoother, even she had to admit that her hands truly had no talent for art.

System: "..."

’If you have no talent, just admit it. Why blame your hands!’

Once she finished tracing, Wu Yue wasted no more time and headed straight for the construction site to find Yuan Lang and the others.

Looking at the blueprint with its familiar art style, a deep sense of amusement bloomed in Yuan Lang’s dark eyes. "Hm, a slight improvement on the last one."

Wu Yue let out an awkward chuckle. ’Damn it, and this is the *redrawn* version. The fifty-point original from the System is still gathering dust in my System Space.’

System: "A high-class place like the System Space doesn’t have anything like dust!"

Wu Yue: "Oh, just shut up."

With blueprints in hand, building the heated bed was no longer a problem. For safety, the Beastman Warriors specially fired slabs to form the bed’s platform.

The sturdiness of these newly-fired slabs astounded Wu Yue.

"Who would’ve thought the soil those yellow ants excrete after eating could have an effect like this."

Everyone’s eyes were filled with joyful surprise.

Everyone had been full of anticipation for the heated bed Wu Yue described.

However, their previous attempts had failed due to incorrect building methods or flimsy stone slabs. The beds either collapsed or only heated up in patches, never succeeding and posing a significant danger.

Now that the new heated bed was assembled and covered with sturdy slabs, Teng Qian nervously wiped his sweaty palms on his Beast Skin Skirt before lighting the fire in the firebox.

The firewood burned with a CRACKLE and a POP. Gradually, the bed began to warm up. The cozy, toasty heat made the Beastman Warrior lying on it break out in a sweat, yet he was still reluctant to get down.

"It’s really warm! The whole bed is actually getting warm!"

"Every part of it is warm! We won’t be cold this winter, haha!"

The Beastman Warriors, who previously had little faith in the blueprint Wu Yue had provided, were so excited their tails and ears popped out.
