Hearing Zhang Lianmeng wanted to take a bath.

Han Xing then remembered that he had just traded with the survivor named Pea Pod for a solar-powered water heater, called the Spiritual Energy Storage Device Blueprint.

This contraption, once set up, could not only automatically collect moisture but also steadily provide hot water.

Seeing Zhang Lianmeng ready to heat the water.

Han Xing called to her from behind, "Lian'Er, wait a moment."

Zhang Lianmeng looked at him in confusion.

Han Xing walked into the castle, then went to the shower room and directly opened the crafting interface.

The system prompt appeared.

[Do you want to craft the Spiritual Energy Storage Device? This craft will take 300 seconds...]

"Yes."

Five minutes later,

A round water bucket with a capacity of approximately 50L appeared in front of Han Xing.

Not wanting to wait for the storage device to slowly collect moisture from the air, Han Xing filled it up directly with water.

Then he placed a Spirit Core in the groove at its bottom.

Thin green lights began to flow.

The water temperature soon began to heat up.

Then, Han Xing also connected a water pipe to the storage device and made a bathtub beside it.

With that, a standard shower room was completed.

He felt as if he had returned to the modern world.

Then, Han Xing came out and said to Zhang Lianmeng, "The water temperature is ready, you can go take a bath first."

Zhang Lianmeng entered the bathroom, looked at the bathtub, and the water heater in surprise, "Wow, there's actually such a thing, amazing!"

Han Xing chuckled lightly and turned to leave.

At this moment, Zhang Lianmeng called out to him.

Her face was flushed, seemingly a little embarrassed.

"Well, um... Brother Xing, can I take a bath with you?"

Han Xing looked at the hopeful eyes of the beauty, and that blushing face that tempted him to take a bite, and against his better judgment, nodded.

The sound of rushing water was constant in the shower room.

Steam continually rose from the surface of the bathtub.

In Han Xing's round-eyed gaze,

Zhang Lianmeng undid her collar, and her nightgown slipped down her smooth body...

A devilish figure was revealed before Han Xing without reservation.

The sight made Han Xing's eyes widen instantly.

"Lian'Er..."

Zhang Lianmeng, with a face full of bashfulness, walked to Han Xing's side and helped him remove his equipment.

Then, the two of them stepped into the bathtub together.

...

The next day.

Han Xing got up early to digest the gains from last night.

After breakfast, Han Xing couldn't wait to head to the territory's perimeter to construct the siege crossbow arrow launcher platform blueprints traded from Black Eagle.

The system prompt appeared.

[Do you want to construct the Siege Crossbow Arrow Launcher Platform? This construction is estimated to take 2 hours...]

Han Xing immediately clicked yes.

Since the maximum range of a crossbow arrow is 5000 meters, about 5 kilometers.

To maximize damage, Han Xing built it near the edge of the territory.

Of course, this also posed a risk, which was that if enemies besieged and the defense shield was breached,

The first to suffer would be these siege crossbow arrow launcher platforms.

Han Xing pondered, "The launcher platform has 80 defense value, and with the territory castle's bonus, it only has 96."

"However, the seeds of the Steel Essence Vine we acquired yesterday seem to provide an extra 40 defense points to buildings, making a total of 136 defense value, which is quite good!"

Thinking about this, Han Xing directly called Zhang Lianmeng over.

"Lian'Er, I have a batch of Steel Essence Vine seeds here. Help me plant them on the edge of the territory, next to the launcher platform, as I need them."

Zhang Lianmeng today wore a red dress, exuding a classic beauty.

She walked gracefully, "Leave it to me, Brother Xing. Lian'Er is very capable, you know～"

Han Xing gave Zhang Lianmeng a peculiar look.

This woman definitely understood the implication of his words, but she intentionally said it to stir his inner desires.

Han Xing found that this woman was becoming bolder recently, often subtly or overtly teasing him to stir his inner lust.

Especially complementing it with her innocent expression, it was hard not to have a certain impulse.

But thinking about last night's madness, Han Xing suppressed his inner desire.

After turning over all the Steel Essence Vine seeds from his backpack to Zhang Lianmeng.

The two began to divide and cooperate.

[Do you want to consume materials to build a siege crossbow arrow launcher platform? This construction will take approximately 180 minutes...]

Han Xing clicked yes.

Then, every twenty meters, a crossbow arrow launcher platform was constructed, with a massive amount of materials being continually consumed.

The system prompts continued to appear.

[Building/Constructing Siege Crossbow Arrow Launcher Platform, remaining time 2 hours and 29 minutes and 59 seconds...]

...

Until the 296th platform was completed, Han Xing had constructed a wall of launcher platforms all around the territory.

Since the angle can be adjusted at any time, his coverage was effectively 360 degrees with no blind spots.

Han Xing clapped his hands and then started creating giant crossbow arrows.

The launcher platform had an automatic reloading feature, but crossbow arrows must be preloaded, with each platform storing up to 30 arrows.

So, he needed to make 9,000 giant crossbow arrows to fully load the platforms.

Creating one giant crossbow arrow took 10 seconds.

Han Xing decided to make 1,000 first.

As the ten-second countdown ended, a flash of white light added a two-meter-long large arrow with the thickness of a bottle neck to Han Xing's backpack.

Han Xing checked its attributes.

[Giant Crossbow Arrow (Blue), Quality - Treasure, Attack Power: 55~60, Attached Effect - Siege (deals an additional 30% damage to buildings)]

"These attributes are quite impressive!"

Originally, he thought it was just an ordinary crossbow arrow, but it turned out to have this pleasant surprise.
