"Wuwuwu, it's so touching, my little Klee is simply an angel!"
"Isn't the country encouraging having children? I want this one! Where can I adopt her?"
"The human trafficker upstairs, right? We'll break your legs if we catch you!"
"Go, Great Demon King, even if it's for Klee!"
The netizens who saw this scene were all in tears; this was completely different from the atmosphere on the other teams.
They weren't as unlucky as Bennett and his group, nor as smooth as Tighnari's, nor were they bickering like Ei's team.
Although their life was quite ordinary, it was very heartwarming and full of love.
Everyone didn't have a particularly comfortable night.
Because it was only the first day, it was difficult to find a good place to use as a base.
Fortunately, everyone had some experience with outdoor survival.
Even the big-brained Itto found a large leaf to cover himself with, using it as his blanket.
Anyway, he had thick skin and flesh, so there wouldn't be any problems.
Late at night, both Xavier and Zeng Deshuai needed to rest.
Early the next morning, Xavier was woken up by the sunlight.
The moment he woke up, he saw Klee seemingly busy with something.
Upon closer inspection, it turned out Klee was using vines to tie branches and wooden sticks, intending to reinforce their temporary shelter.
Seeing this, Xavier was filled with motivation.
"Even Klee is working so hard, I can't lose heart!"
Xavier re-roasted the leftover Mushrooms from yesterday, serving them as breakfast for the two of them.
Then, he began to improve the shelter using wood.
The two of them divided the work; Xavier found wood and cut it to the appropriate size.
Klee, on the other hand, used her small hands to wrap the vines around it.
Don't underestimate Klee's young age; she did a remarkably good job.
"Help, I can't even compare to a small child."
"This must be Klee herself, otherwise how could such a young child be so amazing?"
"If I, at 8 years old, stayed on an island for one night, I'd probably be crying for my mom by now, let alone helping with work."
Everyone finally realized that for Klee, being just a child and able to do this much, was truly rare in the world.
On the other side, Yun Jin stood there, somewhat doubting life.
"Hu Tao, are you sure we absolutely have to do this…?"
Hu Tao clapped her hands and said, "Of course! How is it? Isn't Hall Master's hand very skillful? I can do it so well, even the sizes are the same!"
Yun Jin already had a very good temper, but at this moment, she couldn't help but complain, "But Hu Tao, do you really have to make our house look like a tomb…?"
The scene shifted, and Hu Tao had dug two large pits in the ground, and their sizes were indeed the sizes of two people.
However, some wood had been erected above these pits, making them look neither here nor there.
Hu Tao said confidently, "Oh, don't worry, actually, this kind of dwelling is the most cost-effective!"
Seeing the drone not far away, Hu Tao immediately began to explain.
"Think about it, building a house in the wilderness takes a lot of effort. Effort consumes stamina, and consuming stamina means eating more food."
"But in a place like the wilderness, it's not easy to replenish food, so you must use the least amount of effort to build a house."
Hu Tao circled her so-called "house" once, her face full of pride.
"My place is different; you only need to dig a pit and ensure it's protected from above, and it naturally becomes a house."
"This way, it's not only warm in winter and cool in summer, but if danger arises, you can just cover it with a board to prevent all kinds of sudden incidents!"
Netizens heard Hu Tao's explanation and couldn't hold back, all feeling sorry for Yun Jin.
"No, Hall Master, other people's semi-underground houses aren't like yours."
"Yeah, at least they can dig out a room; yours is just a pit, what does that have to do with a house?!"
"Oh no, I suspect Hall Master came here to bury Mr. Yun, run, Mr. Yun!"
If it were anyone else, people wouldn't have such thoughts.
But this person was Hu Tao, and it seemed everything was reasonable.
It's just that Xavier didn't know what was going on, otherwise he would definitely scold her.
"Uh, our contestant Hu Tao seems to have her own ideas, and they sound very reasonable. So, why don't we go and see the two contestants next door?"
Zeng Deshuai was speechless; he felt his acceptance level was very strong, but when it came to Hu Tao, he was truly at a loss for words.
And Zhongli and Xiao, not far from here, also had a different style.
As soon as the drone arrived, Zhongli and Xiao jumped down from a tree.
"Oh my, could it be that Lord Rex Lapis and Xiao Bao slept in the tree all night?"
"If that's the case, this seems to be the most cost-effective dwelling, right?"
"No, when did they build a wooden house?"
Everyone could vaguely see that a wooden house had already been built in the tree, no wonder the two of them came down from there.
Xiao's execution was also quite impressive, under Zhongli's direction.
He directly used the large tree as the main trunk to build the wooden house.
This not only saved a lot of time but also made it much safer.
"Contestant Zhongli and Contestant Xiao seem to have their own unique insights, but I think netizens, like me, are very curious about how this wooden house was built, right?"
Zeng Deshuai, operating the drone, was very curious and also voiced everyone's thoughts.
Everyone was indeed very curious about this, after all, without nails or many tools, it was very difficult to build a wooden house in such a short time.
Seemingly guessing that everyone would have such doubts, Zhongli proactively introduced, "Building a wooden house that is neither too big nor too small is actually very easy, especially when there is a main structure."
"You only need to utilize the ancient Oriental mortise and tenon technology and structure it reasonably, and you can obtain such a wooden house in a very short time."
With curiosity, Zeng Deshuai operated the drone to slowly approach the treehouse.
Only then did he discover that this treehouse was perfectly fitted together, without using a single nail!
"OMG, is this ancient Oriental technology? It's amazing!"
"I want to learn too! If the end of the world comes someday, I can also build a very beautiful house this way."
"Everyone, do not underestimate the mortise and tenon structure. Even such a small treehouse requires meticulous drawing, otherwise problems can easily arise."
Everyone also realized that to build this house, in addition to extremely high technical skill, a considerable level of design expertise was also required.
This indicates that Zhongli spent a very short time yesterday, imprinting the structure of this house into his mind.
Then, he worked with Xiao to construct it, and finally, the treehouse they saw appeared.
Is this something an ordinary person can do?
