Infinite Days

"Could you rephrase that?"

"Of course!"

"..."

Looking at the inexplicably excited Li Ke, Tsunade couldn't help but cover her forehead, she always felt that Li Ke was a little too excited.

The fact was indeed so.

Li Ke was indeed very excited. After realizing that Tsunade could build a perfect fortress to defend against zombies, he couldn't be described as just excited, but rather ecstatic.

Because this meant that he could relax and no longer worry about the horde!

Although he accepted Tsunade's quest, Li Ke still watched Tsunade experiment with the wooden frame first, and then build it with the steel frame. He couldn't help but praise her, Tsunade was indeed reliable.

And so was Kelly. With the help of these two people, a seemingly reliable defensive barrier was being built quickly.

Li Ke went to do quests halfway through, and then completed all four quests in less than an hour.

As always, the loot wasn't much. The best find was twenty Bullets, which left Li Ke speechless, not knowing how to comment.

But the quest rewards were pretty good. He got twenty Molotov Cocktails and a revolver, just right for Kelly to use. The rest were some medicines, which were also good things.

Li Ke added all four skill point he obtained this time to Power, and his Power level instantly increased to level five!

Level five Power made Li Ke feel that when he was doing his usual actions, he could achieve the same effect by using only one-fifth of his usual Power! And when he used his full Power, he could directly exert five times the Power effect!

Level five Power!

Five times the Power!

Five times the strength!

Five times the domineering!

He, Li Ke, had instantly transformed from a weakling into five times the strength!

You must know that this wasn't just an increase in Power out of thin air, with each level increasing a fixed value, but rather Li Ke's own Power being amplified by five hundred percent!

In an instant, Li Ke's confidence exploded. He took a steel frame from the Workbench that was constantly producing steel frames, materialized a hollow steel column that he couldn't lift no matter what just now, and then solidified it with a perverted smile, letting the heavy steel column fall to the ground.

Then, with a confident look on his face, he rolled up his sleeves, grabbed both ends, and then--

It came up.

But not completely.

"..."

Looking at the hollow steel column that he could only lift up a little before he couldn't help but want to let go, unable to lift it up like Tsunade, Li Ke was a little silent.

Tsunade, who happened to pass by to get a steel frame, wanted to laugh at Li Ke like this.

"You should have gotten an increase in Power through those skill point, but if your original Power isn't strong, it's useless no matter how much it's amplified, right?"

Tsunade's precise stab made Li Ke silently let go of the hollow steel column, and walked away silently like a wooden prisoner, which made Kelly and Tsunade laugh for a while.

That's right, if those strongmen who constantly train, those who constantly exercise their physical fitness, coupled with a reasonable diet and arduous training, can lift more than two hundred kilograms of Power, how could he, Li Ke, who sits in an office, think that his Power can be compared with them...

However, the three of them still discovered some accidents during the construction process.

That was when Tsunade built the steel pillar to fifteen meters and was about to make a turn, as soon as she built a System steel pillar, all the buildings she had built collapsed in an instant!

Caught off guard, Tsunade, along with the System pillars they had built on the invincible wall, fell directly downwards!

Li Ke subconsciously wanted to pounce out, but he didn't need to do anything at all. Tsunade threw out a kunai with a thread, nailing it to the mud pillar that hadn't been dug out, and then punched open all the steel pillars blocking her in front, steadily swinging to the stairs on the other side, allowing herself to escape the danger.

However, a large number of materialized steel cylinders rolled directly into the dug-out mining pit, along with those cylinders that Tsunade had materialized for convenience, were also knocked down by the suddenly falling steel pillars, and then rolled into the abyss.

And those System cylinders directly deformed in the air, turning into pieces of I-beam fertilizer.

Looking at the mess on the ground, the faces of the three people were not very good, because the distance between here and the bottom was about thirty meters.

"Damn it... I didn't expect there to be such a setting."

Li Ke looked at the steel pillars below and couldn't help but curse. He had told Tsunade that System blocks had limits, but he never expected that just a corner would make them lose all their previous efforts.

"It's okay, I'll go down and get it after dinner later. This little thing is probably just an hour. It's just a pity for those System steel pillars... And don't worry too much about me, I won't die from this height."

Tsunade, who slowly walked up, was also a little palpitation. If she hadn't kept a roll of steel wire and a kunai on her for insurance, then she would have really fallen!

Although...

Although she wouldn't die even if she fell.

Li Ke: "..."

I...

Don't really understand you ninjas.

The author has something to say:

Author's words: There will be another 5000 in the afternoon, Then it's today's 2500.

Let's talk about the explosion on the shelves.

Chapter 29: Layered Terraces

Just as Tsunade had said, what was an impossible task for Li Ke was merely a stroll behind the house for Tsunade.

Most importantly, she did it with ease.

She could leap seven or eight meters in distance and five or six meters in height. With a little effort, she could even jump directly from the bottom of a deep valley to the top of a building, leaving Li Ke dumbfounded.

He knew Tsunade was a ninja, and he had seen the abilities of these ninjas in anime, but it was only after seeing it in person that he realized how outrageous and shocking this stuff really was.

It could be said that if Tsunade hadn't said that she could still be cut by knives and that her defense against stabbing wasn't very good, Li Ke would have thought she could play a female version of Superman: Man of Steel.

The scenes seen in anime and the scenes seen in reality are truly two different sensations.

He was very certain that if it weren't for her Hemophobia, Tsunade wouldn't have to be afraid of any horde. Even if she stood on a large plain, she wouldn't encounter any danger.

Finally, in the afternoon, after experiencing four or five failures, they finally built a relatively safe place.

"Well, the rules of this world are really strange, but this is the limit of what we can do right now."

Looking at the small five-meter-by-five-meter square box in front of her, Tsunade helplessly spread her hands. Because of various experiments and careful considerations, and after conducting a series of tests to ensure that any activity inside would not cause a collapse, they finally made their choice.

The house didn't have doors or anything like that. They planned to directly seal the door with two Tekkai, and then directly fix it with System blocks.

Around the walls, there were also special windows for shooting and ventilation, also made from deformed Tekkai frames, allowing Li Ke and Kelly to constantly clear zombies through them.

They also planned to seal these places with realistic Tekkai, because only in this way could they ensure absolute safety.

"Although I think you're still a bit too afraid of those zombies, this thing does look spectacular."

Kelly looked at the house suspended on the wall and nodded.

"But it still gives me an uneasy feeling."

She pointed to the gap between the pillars and the invincible wall.

"Although we've tested it many times, I still feel like it's going to fall."

"As long as we don't add any more blocks randomly, or the steel plates aren't penetrated, it should be fine, but we have a backup plan, don't we?"

Li Ke pointed to the soil under their feet that hadn't been dug through. Tsunade was using her fists to embed materialized steel plates into the soil below, because within this soil, there was a tunnel and secret room that they had dug out earlier. If they were really to lose this place, they could directly pass through this tunnel to the shelter below.

The reason why they didn't choose this plan immediately was also very simple.

There wasn't enough Tekkai. If they used it all to build an underground fortress, Li Ke was worried that the endless zombies would dig through the foundation, and the entire building would collapse in an instant.

So, it was better to prepare for both possibilities.

During this period, Kelly also tried to repair the cement mixer, then helplessly spread her hands, indicating that she had been exaggerating earlier.

Because there was no motor in it! No matter how skilled she was, she couldn't handle that.

"Then, next is the making of traps."

Li Ke looked at the wide, pitted hollow and took a deep breath, taking out a large pile of Gunpowder.

He first took out some wood blocks and fixed them on the ground, then materialized some empty cans, put nails into the cans, and then filled the cans and wood blocks with Gunpowder, and then put these things together.

Even more insane, he spread nearly half a meter of Gunpowder over a large area of land, then covered it with wooden plank, preparing to flip the floor when the time came. Even if it couldn't explode, it could ensure that the wood would be ignited.

While doing this, he also constantly made wooden spike traps in his Inventory, which were barricades made of several sharp pieces of wood, fixing them on the ground to form one defense line after another in the center of the canyon.

"This guy, he's a little paranoid... Anyone who doesn't know what's going on and walks in here is definitely going to be screwed..."

Kelly's eyes twitched as she looked at Li Ke. She really thought Li Ke was overreacting.

"He can do whatever he wants. Anyway, the mining here is almost done, and we basically won't be active here in the future."

Tsunade, who had already laid steel plates and partitions for the retreat below, didn't care much. She would let Li Ke do whatever he wanted to do.

Although she didn't think zombies could be that powerful anyway.

Time passed as Li Ke continued to set traps. After eating lunch, Li Ke materialized some wooden plank and made three beds and several partitions for their Tekkai house for the three of them to live in, and brought two buckets of water into the house, moving the things from their small wooden box next to the house.

After that, Tsunade and Kelly also helped build some defensive facilities and arrange some flammables at Li Ke's request, so that Kelly could directly ignite them with a gun.

Most importantly, while the two women were cooking, Li Ke insanely dug up the only road leading to the outside world, completely isolating the existence of zombies.

After all, they had convenient System blocks that could be directly laid to leave.

In response, Tsunade and Kelly just curled their lips and didn't express any opinions, just thinking that Li Ke was neurotic, so after finishing their own affairs, they went to take a bath, and took the money Li Ke gave them, bought a bunch of food and beer, and prepared to have a banquet.

Li Ke didn't care about these things. He continued to lay Gunpowder until the evening before stepping on the blocks and returning to the Tekkai hut to eat with Tsunade and the others.

Lying on his soft bed, Li Ke looked at the starry sky outside the window, feeling extremely peaceful. Although there was a thirty-meter-deep abyss below, he had never been so happy.

"There's still one day tomorrow, I can go look for quests at the police station. The police station in America should be equipped with heavy firepower, and the emergency escape shelter below can be improved..."

He fell asleep with hope for the future.

Then, just as time reached the moment of midnight.

A sandstorm began to blow outside.

Chapter 30: An Even More Desperate Reality

The Tekkai house didn't feel very good to live in, so the energetic Li Ke got up early, preparing to take care of his physiological needs while the two women were indulging in their beds.

There was no way around it, being too strong had this disadvantage.

Gently getting up, closing the door, and washing up, Li Ke groggily walked towards the female merchant's room, preparing to properly meet again with this female merchant who was really comfortable to use.

But a gust of yellow sand suddenly swept through, causing Li Ke to squint his eyes, and also making his muddled brain suddenly clear up a bit.

"Sandstorm?"

His still drowsy brain was thinking about this, but Li Ke, who suddenly realized something, immediately looked at the opposite side of the canyon that Tsunade and Kelly had dug open.

In the next moment, Li Ke's desire disappeared, replaced by a wave of coolness, because he saw zombies.

Endless zombies, these zombies swayed on the distant cliffs, and moved towards one direction without interruption, not much less than last time.

Moreover, this time, his enhanced vision also allowed him to see zombies further away.

These zombies were still one next to another, one following another, as if there was no end, constantly moving forward into the distance, constantly moving forward.

He looked around, in all directions, the vast wilderness was still full of endless zombies, without exception.

The moon in the sky revealed a dim yellow panic, and the yellow sand in the air was constantly flying, making the sky look like it was night.

"..."

Li Ke opened his mouth, even when the wind carried yellow sand into his mouth, he didn't react, just stared blankly at the zombies.

Today...

Isn't it the sixth day?!

Li Ke summoned his System time in his heart, stared at the blood-red six on it for a while, and silently accepted this reality.

He silently went to the Merchant's room, but didn't do anything strange. Instead, he directly took all the steel frames, bought the seven remaining grenades from the Merchant, and then closed the Merchant's door tightly before returning to their steel house.

When he came back, Kelly and Tsunade had just put on their clothes and were about to come out to wash up, but Li Ke directly stopped them and made them look outside.

Kelly's mouth opened wide, while Tsunade sat down on the ground with a pale face.
