"This crafting price isn't cheap..."
"Hello."
Chen Fan looked at the Crocodile and said loudly, "I don't need the toys, you can keep them for yourself. If you could, could you help me dig a big hole in this Cliff Face, like the Cave behind me right now?"
He gestured with his hands as he spoke.
I want to express my meaning as clearly as possible.
The Crocodile lying on the ground tilted its head and looked at Chen Fan, who was gesturing wildly on the City Wall, trying to figure out what Chen Fan was trying to convey. After a while, it walked to the Cliff Face on the left, tentatively dug a hole with its claws, and then looked back at Chen Fan.
"That's right, exactly."
Chen Fan nodded emphatically in satisfaction, and, afraid that he wouldn't be able to see clearly from a distance, he spread his arms wide with great force. "But it needs to be bigger and deeper, just like the one behind me."
This time the Crocodile understood and let out an excited growl.
Its front paws moved rapidly, constantly digging Cave in the Cliff Face.
"He's an engineering tycoon, huh..."
After observing for a while, Chen Fan's eyes flashed with surprise. This guy had swallowed all the Soil produced from digging the Cave. He was now certain that this guy definitely had a spatial bag inside his stomach, and it was quite large.
Without lingering, he ordered the "Mountain-Skeleton Embryo" in the Eerie Fire to extend the bones into the newly opened Cave to prevent a collapse, then let the creature do its own thing; he needed to go to sleep first.
I can't hold on any longer.
It wasn't until the afternoon that Chen Fan stretched and stepped out of the Wooden Hut.
It's another refreshing day.
The sound of Crippled Monkey and others chatting could be heard outside the Cave.
Step outside the City Wall.
The Crocodile was lying on the ground, panting heavily, its mouth wide open, clearly exhausted. The Crippled Monkey stood beside it, using the Godslaying Spear to pick out the Soil and pebbles that had been squeezed together by the Crocodile's thick teeth.
On the Cliff Face to the left.
A dark Cave has appeared on the Cliff Face.
Its size was almost exactly the same as the Cave he was in.
Seeing Chen Fan come out.
The Crocodile's eyes suddenly lit up, and it swung its tail as if to ask for praise.
"Well done."
Chen Fan walked to the bottom of the Canyon and looked at the dark Cave on the almost vertical cliff to his left. A look of surprise flashed in his eyes. He really didn't expect this guy to be so efficient. The amount of work that took them three days to complete was finished by this guy in one Daytime.
And...
He strode to the entrance of the Cave.
It was at least fifty meters deep, much deeper than the Cave he was in now, and the ground was extremely compacted and flat, as if it had been flattened by a road roller, without a single speck of excess Soil or gravel.
A perfect project.
The Yellow Grade "Vehicle Workshop" building finally has a place to be housed.
The price was that this guy was constantly panting and looked exhausted.
That is, 127 Strange Entities corpses.
"Great!"
Chen Fan turned to look at the Crocodile, gave him Thumbs-Up, and grinned, "Perfect! Qi Chong, get him something good to eat."
"Roar..."
Humans and animals do not communicate verbally, but the expression of emotions is always the same.
Although the Crocodile couldn't understand his speech, it could sense his emotions from his body language and expression, and it also let out a happy growl, like a child who had been praised.
"Good boy/girl."
Chen Fan silently tucked the Ghostlight Lantern into his pocket; carrying it around felt a bit too conspicuous.
The Crocodile lay down in its usual spot under the City Wall, its mouth wide open, waiting for food.
Chen Fan stood alone in front of the newly opened Cave, which he named Cave No. 2.
The Canyon floor has four Cliff Face.
He carved out Cave No. 1 on the Cliff Face facing the Canyon Passage as his Camp. This newly opened Cave is on the left Cliff Face, where the "Vehicle Workshop" will be located.
The next moment--
A vast and complex architectural silhouette, composed of white lines, slowly emerged within the Cave.
It occupies almost half of the Cave area.
Immediately afterwards.
Inside Cave No. 1, the shattered, Eerie Stone transformed into Ghostly Green liquid that flew through the air and quickly disappeared into the building's illusory form.
The illusory image quickly solidified.
It sits securely inside Cave No. 2.
This enormous structure lies sprawled in the shadows of the Camp, covering a vast area. Its main body is constructed from black stone, giant timber, and other materials, riveted and pieced together. It is not a single building, but rather a combination of several huge buildings, as rugged and menacing as Factory.
At a glance.
The most eye-catching feature is the entrance to the workshop.
It is not two door panels.
Instead, it was a giant Metal Passage, over 5 meters in diameter, protruding forward, with its doors tightly shut, exuding an air of majesty and Ice-Cold.
He stepped forward and gently touched the Metal Passage; the material looked like copper.
The thought crossed my mind, and the door opened.
Inside is a rather deep, straight passageway.
You can see a large number of metal gears on both sides of the passageway, as well as Copper Pipe connected to the gears... Yes, those are the Copper Pipe he piled up on the Canyon floor, but unlike his bold and unrestrained way of using them, these Copper Pipe are placed in an extremely precise and complex manner.
The conveyor belt beneath our feet is not yet in operation.
Once started.
Vehicles are produced in this Vehicle Workshop and then transported outside via conveyor belt.
The entire building is filled with a complex aesthetic.
He couldn't understand it.
But there are things he can understand.
"..."
Chen Fan looked at the building panel in front of him. Building this building had cost him a full 1,000 Eerie Stone, making it the most expensive building he had ever created.
-
Building Name: Vehicle Workshop
Building grade: Yellow Grade.
Building grade: Level 1.
"Architectural Effects": Vehicles can be produced; currently, vehicles can be produced...
1: Bone Boat, can travel on the sea, requires 100 Eerie Stone and some Strange Entities Bone to build.
2: Skeleton Horse, can travel on land, requires 100 Eerie Stone and some Strange Entities Bones to craft.
P. S.: Upgrading to Level 2 requires 2000 Eerie Stone. Each upgrade grants a new vehicle Blueprint.

"This wouldn't have been cheap to build..."
Chen Fan narrowed his eyes slightly. 100 Eerie Stone were equivalent to the price of 10 level Level-1 Arrow Tower. He would consume another 100 Eerie Stone and seven or eight Strange Entities Bone to create a "Skeleton Horse." There were only words and no pictures, so he didn't know what the Skeleton Horse looked like.
The next moment--
A rumbling sound came from inside the Vehicle Workshop.
A few breaths later.
The workshop doors opened, and a "Skeleton Horse" was conveyed out of the waiting area outside the workshop via conveyor belt.
"..."
Chen Fan stared at the Skeleton Horse in front of him, remaining silent for a long time.
He had thought that "Skeleton Horse" might just be a name, but it turned out to be exactly what it meant.
Standing still in the waiting area, every bone gleamed with a dark silver metallic luster, and the joints were inlaid with milky white, Eerie Stone.
A faint, cold white Flame burned in his eye sockets.
He was very familiar with it.
That's what it looks like when Eerie Fire is burning.
The four hooves were enveloped in a ghostly blue Flame, an extremely dazzling Flame that was as chilling as the dying howl of Strange Entities.
The overall appearance looks like this.
He could only offer a one-word evaluation.
--mad.
He fucking loved that damned Skeleton Horse. The sheer ferocity it exuded just standing there made him leap onto its back and gallop across the Wasteland, roaring, "When autumn comes on the ninth day of the ninth month, my flowers will bloom and all others will wither."
This horse perfectly hit his sweet spot.
He liked it very much.
