Survival For All: I, Aura Creator

Chapter 56: The Enclosure of 20,000 Stones (Please Collect!)

The fish pond was built last night, right on top of three springs. After a night of water storage, the pond's depth had reached about 1.2 meters, which was similar to the shallow area of a swimming pool.

【Fish Pond】

【Level】: 2

【Scale】: 5m*10m*2.5m

【Characteristics】: Cleanliness I (Biological Health +100%), Nature II (Biological Growth Speed +200%, including aquatic plants.) {Extra}

【Explanation】: A normal fish pond, but you managed to make it extraordinary.

Ning Ze looked at the panel of the fish pond and couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't expect that the "Master Builder (I)" would once again excel, significantly increasing the growth speed of the fish fry.

Subsequently, he took out the fish fry he had just acquired last night.

【Fast-growing grass carp fry】

【Growth Period】: One month

【Explanation】: Rest assured, without any hormones, guaranteed to be delicious and safe to eat!

This explanation was quite astonishing. Normally, grass carp take one to two years to mature, so shortening it to one month was indeed quite shocking.

With the blessing of the Nature II characteristic, the grass carp fry's maturation period only needed ten days, which was truly defying nature.

Immediately, he put the grass carp fry into the fish pond and then threw some bushes into the pond.

After completing all this, Ning Ze also noticed that the enclosure seemed insufficient.

Now that there were two houses in the yard, the original 15m*15m yard seemed crowded.

Fortunately, he still had plenty of ironwood. He directly expanded the enclosure to 30m*30m, making the entire yard spacious in an instant, and conveniently enclosing the fish pond as well, killing two birds with one stone.

Returning to the yard, Ning Ze opened the 【Exchange】. The coal mine and flint he listed yesterday had not been confirmed for trade. After a simple browse, he confirmed each one.

【Trade successful, obtained a 90% new iron pickaxe!】

【Trade successful, obtained 30 stone blocks!】

【Trade successful, obtained Wardrobe I blueprint!】

【Trade successful, obtained 300g cotton!】

【Trade successful, obtained 400ml drinking water!】

Among them, the most traded items were edible food and drinking water. These two things were always essential supplies, even though Ning Ze could already meet his personal life needs with the help of Fenrir. Having more in stock would always be beneficial.

In addition, he also traded for two pounds of cotton, bringing him closer to making a cotton quilt.

Some ordinary coal mines and flint were all exchanged for stone blocks, as he still had a blueprint for a second-level enclosure wall.

According to his calculations, to build a 50m*50m enclosure wall, he would need 40,000 stone blocks, averaging 2,000 stone blocks per ten meters of wall.

"The pressure is immense. Even if I buy out the 【Exchange】, I still won't be able to gather this many stone blocks."

After all, the primary route for most people now was to upgrade their small wooden houses to stone houses, and some had already done so.

More people were treating stone resources as precious treasures, resulting in the current high prices of stone blocks.

Only two ordinary coal mines could be exchanged for three stone blocks!

One ordinary flint could only be exchanged for two stone blocks!

"No, isn't there an idle labor force at home? With slender arms and legs, it should be no problem to chisel some stones. It's also a good way to exercise. Isn't it said that girls all hope to have abdominal muscles!"

Coincidentally, at this moment, Xue Siyu walked over and, upon hearing this, she suddenly felt the urge to escape.

Before she could take a step, Ning Ze called out to her, "Siyu, come here. Today, I'll assign you a task. This iron pickaxe is yours now. You must chisel out two hundred stone blocks today."

Two hundred stone blocks!!!

Xue Siyu was instantly shocked as she took the iron pickaxe handed to her, looking at it with tears in her eyes.

As far as she knew, even normal men would find it very difficult to chisel out two hundred stone blocks in a day, especially in the cold. She had reached level three, but her panel attributes were not much different from those of a normal adult male.

Chiseling two hundred stone blocks would be risking her life!

But Ning Ze's command was not something she could refuse. Soon after, under Ning Ze's lead, they headed to the small mountain to the west.

There were plenty of stones here, so it wouldn't be a problem to chisel for a long time.

Ning Ze went to the nearby coal mine area, where he had already chiseled a sizable hole in the gray-black rock wall, a testament to his diligence.

Seeing the large hole, Xue Siyu didn't dare to say anything. After all, her master was working so hard. What reason did she have not to work hard?

【Obtained coal*1, coal*1, constant temperature rock*1, high-temperature flammable coal, draw Origin Value*1, obtain survival points*3.】

【Obtained coal*1, acid-resistant rock*1, durable flint, smokeless coal, additionally obtained Transcendent item: Endurance Gem, draw Origin Value*1, obtain survival points*3.】

【Obtained coal*1, flint*1, acid-resistant rock*1, white phosphorus flint, additionally obtained Transcendent items: Charm Stone*3, draw Origin Value*1, obtain survival points*3.】

【Everlasting Life (II)】: You've become stronger, gaining strength value*1, constitution value*1, experience value*100.

This was great, another time obtaining Transcendent items, and it was a double drop.

But what in the world was a Charm Stone?

【Charm Stone】: When crushed, it slightly improves skin problems.

"What do I need this for? It's really useless!"

Ning Ze casually crushed the three Charm Stones, then took advantage of the remaining anti-fatigue leaves and quickly continued mining.

On the side, Xue Siyu seemed to be watching a horror movie. If she remembered correctly, Ning Ze hadn't stopped chiseling the coal mine for so long.

This man was too strong and too enduring!

Just then, Fenrir, holding a wild pheasant in its mouth, arrived at Ning Ze's feet. This was already the third wild pheasant Fenrir had brought back. At this rate, it could bring back more than ten in a single day.

Of course, the premise was that there were so many wild pheasants in this area. It felt like if Fenrir kept catching them like this, the wild pheasants in this area would soon become extinct.

"Not bad, Fenrir. Here's a reward for you. Keep up the good work!"

Ning Ze took out a piece of meat and rewarded Fenrir. However, after eating the meat, Fenrir didn't leave but instead bit onto Ning Ze's pants and tugged.

"The last time Fenrir bit my pants like this, it found a treasure chest. Could there be another treasure chest this time?"

Ning Ze was suddenly delighted and quickly put the iron pickaxe into his backpack, saying, "Alright, Fenrir, lead the way, Siyu, come with me."

Immediately, Fenrir took the lead.

Xue Siyu also put away the iron pickaxe in her hand. After chiseling for so long, her hands were almost useless, so she took this opportunity to take a good rest.

There don't seem to be many typos.
