113 Chapter - Employee Observation Deck
The tunnel directly ahead was winding, and Bai Cheng couldn't see the end of it.
But not seeing any light at least proved that this tunnel was indeed very long, while turning back, the glowing entrance was not far away.
With the train stopped here, monster attacks would likely only come from behind.
Whether it was easy to defend or not, when these monsters gathered, it could greatly speed up the efficiency of killing them, thereby gaining a massive amount of experience points.
Of course, there was also the location of the monster lair, which interested Bai Cheng even more.
Here, the Ashen Rain couldn't fall, so they could appear normally.
Bai Cheng looked at the several red and black square stones in her hand, then clicked on the newly unlocked building on the screen to view it.
Building Name: Enchanting Table
Quality: Excellent
Description: By consuming flame spirit cores, you can apply the attributes brought by that flame spirit core to your equipment.
Construction Requirements: unlimited coins * 100, flame spirit core * 1
Evaluation: "Equipment" is a broad definition.
Bai Cheng wasn't too surprised by this, as she had roughly guessed its function just from the item name.
"It doesn't seem very useful, does it?" She raised an eyebrow.
Survivors have their life-bound artifacts, and employees generally don't rely on equipment for combat, so what's the point of enchanting?
"Could it be that if I enchant a flashlight, I can create a laser sword?"
Bai Cheng didn't know what the Enchanting Table was for yet, so she had no intention of building it.
She swiped her finger and looked at the second building unlocked this time.
Building Name: Employee Watchtower
Quality: None
Description: A watchtower built on top of the train for employees to use for reconnaissance, equipped with weapons, beds, and other basic facilities, and can also be used for employees to rest.
Construction Requirements: iron ingot * 100, bronze ingot * 100, refined leather * 100, flame spirit core * 1.
Note: When you choose to build an Employee Watchtower on a certain car, the levels of both will synchronize, and the Watchtower does not require materials to upgrade.
"The consumption is just some basic materials," Bai Cheng mused, stroking her chin.
The Employee Watchtower still had some necessity for construction.
After all, although Bai Cheng now had four employees, everyone had almost already made their divisions of labor.
Chi Yan was responsible for driving the train, Lü Duo was in charge of planting in Car No. 2, and Zi Yuan was Bai Cheng's bodyguard.
And Qing Niao, with her flying ability, was undoubtedly the most suitable for the position of scout.
He was basically outside the train all day, and if there was an Employee Watchtower, it could also provide him with a place to rest.
Bai Cheng chose to build the Employee Watchtower with almost no hesitation.
As for the construction location, it was naturally on top of the front of the train, where the view was better.
As a white light flashed, Bai Cheng inside immediately found that a closed passage had appeared above her head, allowing direct access from the front of the train up to the Watchtower.
She curiously went outside the train to check and found that even with a Watchtower on top of the train, it wasn't as incongruous as she had imagined.
This Watchtower was only about 1.5 meters high, shaped like a trapezoid, with its front flush with the front of the train at the same incline angle.
As for the armor, it was the exact same color, but the front of the Watchtower had no glass, but rather thick steel armor that could be opened and closed manually.
Near the top, there was also a circular slide groove, and the scope or telescope hanging above it could slide 360 degrees without obstruction.
As for the bottom, it was the weapon mentioned by the system, which looked like a crossbow.
But the center of the crossbow was a device shaped like a cannon barrel, and the crossbow arms on both sides surrounded the Watchtower, also serving as reinforcement.
"Won't this be too small?" After all, Qing Niao's height was nearly 1.8 meters.
Bai Cheng curiously jumped onto the train and examined it up close.
"So, it's for sitting and observing," she suddenly thought it made sense.
Aside from not being tall, the interior space of the Watchtower, which was almost as wide as the train, was actually not small; it also contained a bed, a chair, and the rest was that huge crossbow.
"The ceiling can also be opened, which is convenient for Qing Niao to enter and exit."
Bai Cheng jumped back into the front of the train from inside the Watchtower, and also took a look at the crossbow's information.
Name: Elemental Ballista
Description: Employees can infuse power into it to create projectiles, whose power and characteristics are related to the employee's own abilities, with a range of 1km.
"Oh, a bundled weapon effect is actually quite good," Bai Cheng was a little surprised.
This way, even employees without long-range attack methods could attack from a distance.
If several more were built, wouldn't the train directly transform into a cruiser?
Bai Cheng turned to Qing Niao: "From now on, this Watchtower is exclusively yours!"
Chi Yan immediately translated: "Qing Niao says thank you for the young lady's appreciation."
Yes, after all, he was the weakest employee on the train, but Bai Cheng still treated everyone equally.
Qing Niao flew into the Watchtower with joy, and Bai Cheng also planned to continue checking the last building she had unlocked.
Just as she turned around, she saw Zi Yuan squatting in the corner, her hand constantly drawing circles on the floor.
"Oh, Zi Yuan, what's wrong?" Bai Cheng couldn't help but ask curiously.
But when she looked up, her pursed lips and tearful expression made her look extremely wronged.
"Miss, do you dislike Zi Yuan...? Is there something I did that displeased you, boo hoo..."
"Huh?" Bai Cheng looked surprised, "How could that be? Why would you say that?"
"Qing Niao, as a newcomer, even has her own room, Zi Yuan is so pitiful, Zi Yuan is an employee the young lady doesn't like..."
"Ah~" Bai Cheng exhaled and stepped forward to comfort her.
"Zi Yuan, you see, they all have to work, only you can always stay by my side, doesn't this just show that Zi Yuan is the most important?"
"Eh?" Zi Yuan's eyes immediately lit up.
Bai Cheng stroked her head and then leaned in to whisper in her ear: "Also, you see how weak Qing Niao is, ◈ Nоvеlіgһт ◈ (Continue reading) don't we have to take care of him a bit?"
Chi Yan's ear twitched imperceptibly to the side, and he silently turned away.
After comforting Zi Yuan, Bai Cheng also sent her employees to collect the silver ore nearby.
And with the previous lesson learned, Chi Yan would melt down and inspect almost every suspicious-looking boulder that might contain minerals.
Bai Cheng also checked the last building unlocked by the flame spirit core.
"powered railcar?" She really couldn't understand; she already had a steam train, so what was the use of getting another railcar now?
Even if it was powered and not manual, it was still a bit useless.
"Could it be that only the Employee Watchtower is somewhat useful among these things?" Bai Cheng raised an eyebrow, then clicked on the building information on the screen.
Name: powered railcar
Description: A powered railcar installed on the train that can be manually detached from the train and driven independently.
Note: The powered railcar has some functions of the train, can normally enter non-numbered Stations and does not consume fuel, with a maximum speed of 120km.
Construction Requirements: iron ingot * 500, unlimited coins * 888, flame spirit core * 2
Evaluation: Now there's no need to waste fuel traveling to and from non-numbered Stations!
Bai Cheng was stunned; wasn't this like the travel vehicle in an RV!
More importantly, with it, everyone could act separately!
"Good, this railcar must be built!"
