Chapter 38: Perpetual Power Generator
At this point, the eyes of James and Lily were all focused on Irving.
They opened their eyes wide, their faces filled with incredulity.
Especially Lily, she felt her cheeks burning.
Although James had guessed that the[Lucky Pretty Boy]on the forum might be Irving, he never thought that Irving could kill all the beasts in the first wave of the beast tide.
"No wonder there are so many equipment..." After a long time, James gradually came back from his shock and realized.
Irving said: "Alright, don't worry about the equipment. I will send another batch of equipment to your the Green Ivy Group... But that mine must not fall into the hands of others!"
"Irving, don't worry about that." James nodded, "Let me get you go home."
"Okay." Irving agreed.
After the three of them went downstairs, James drove up a black Maybach from the basement. He called his driver to follow in another car, and he personally drove Irving and Vicky home.
In less than ten minutes, they arrived at Irving's apartment complex.
"Irving, take this car for yourself. It'd be more convenient for you to get around." After getting out of the car, James handed the car key to Irving and introduced, "This Mercedes-Maybach S680 is a special version I got by pulling some strings. It weighs five tons, and both the windows and the chassis have been bulletproofed. Even if the tires burst, it can still run.
It has a very powerful performance, not losing to some sports cars."
This was something Irving didn't expect.
He looked at the Maybach S680 in front of him. Just the nearly six-meter long body was enough to show its luxury and grandeur, and the most important part was the special version.
Men have a natural love for cars, as if it comes from their bones.
Irving nodded. He knew this was James' goodwill, and he actually liked this car. So he didn't say much, and took the car keys.
"Irving, I'm going back now. Contact me anytime if there's any situation." James said, and got into the car his driver had driven and left.
...
Back home, Irving's room was a duplex structure, with both upstairs and downstairs available for living. The upstairs was divided into two sides. He cleared out one side, which had been used as a computer room, for Vicky to live in, while he stayed in the master bedroom on the other side.
"Alright, go take a shower." After tidying up, Irving said again, "You'll take care of your personal stuff tomorrow, just make do for tonight."
For some reason, Vicky, who was lively and cheerful when they first met, now seemed a bit restrained. She didn't say a word, just nodded obediently.
Her heart was thumping at this moment. This was her first time staying in someone else's house, and it was a man's house...
Irving smiled: "You're not living here for free. Treat it as your own home. Remember to knock on the door if you need anything."
After briefly introducing some of the items in the house, once Vicky had left, Irving went straight into the game of the Other World.
...
Inside the shelter.
Little Black had been sleeping all day and was now lounging in its small nest, bored.
Upon seeing Irving return, it immediately wagged its tail and greeted him.
Irving petted Little Black's fluffy little head and then picked it up, cradling it in his arms, his mind began to race...
The second round of disaster would descend in two days. This time, they would have to face not only more ferocious and powerful unknown beasts but two other threats:
Extreme cold temperatures and a dark environment.
Irving didn't want to be frozen alive in the game, let alone be attacked by those unknown beasts in the dark...
His first thought was to upgrade the shelter.
In the upgrade options for the shelter, they could remodel the wall material and thicken the eaves to keep the cold out. But not only would this require collecting specific materials, the effect might not be as good as expected.
"Might as well use the[Void Ring]to transport some cold-resistant items in." Irving muttered to himself.
He had planned this a long time ago, which was why he asked Anna for strategic warehouse supplies during their trade.
The official strategic warehouse supplies were all reserved for emergencies.The quality was top-notch, and their performance was much stronger than anything available on the market.
For example, electric heaters, carpets, even heating air conditioners, and a lot of insulating materials...
Furthermore, he could also get some lighting equipment, such as searchlights. It was very hard to buy high-wattage ones, but those supplied to the official side were completely different... If he could get large searchlights like the ones used in prisons, the surroundings of the shelter would be as bright as daylight, and not even a mouse could escape from sight.
"It's just unknown if I can bring them in..." Irving thought of the warning from the Blue Star Will and felt a headache. But no matter what, he had to try.
"Fuck!" Irving seemed to suddenly remember something, and slapped his forehead, saying bitterly, "How could I forget something so important? Those devices all need electricity! And they require a lot of it. I can't possibly build a power station, can I?"
Even if those electric heaters and searchlights could be brought in, without electricity they would be as good as scrap iron!
Constructing a power station in the Other World was unrealistic!
Thinking of this, Irving couldn't help shaking his head. Just as he was about to honestly start upgrading the shelter to improve its cold resistance, his eyes suddenly fell on Little Black, who was lying on its back in his arms.
The next moment, a light flashed in his slightly disappointed eyes.
"Beasts!" Irving excitedly lifted Little Black up, saying in excitement, "How didn't I think of it before. I can use beasts to generate power!"
He could totally bring a power generator into the Other World. Of course, there were many types of power generators. Some could use fuel to generate electricity, but it was likely that these would not pass the supervision of the Blue Star Will... But that was okay, there was another type of generator that only needed force to operate.
Aren't the beasts in the Other World free labor?
Irving was a powerful necromancer, who could enslave many beasts to work for him. He could have them all stepping on generators, continuously providing electricity for the shelter!
At this moment, he could already envision the tasks being carried out.
Once he had electricity, whether the freezing temperature or the illumination in the dark, everything would be solved!
"That's it for today. Tomorrow we need to start preparing quickly. The only worry is whether those electrical appliances can be brought into the Other World..." Irving was somewhat anxious.
Having spent the afternoon shopping with Vicky and the evening at a banquet, at this moment he felt waves of tiredness surge over him. He gave Little Black's head a rub before exiting the Other World.
Irving stretched lazily, then headed downstairs to take a quick shower and go to bed.
He usually lived alone in the house and was a bit absent-minded from pondering over the electricity issue, so as soon as he got downstairs he headed directly for the bathroom.
Arriving at the bathroom door, Irving looked up to see that the light inside was on, and only then did he remember that Vicky was still taking a bath. Just as he was about to turn around and leave, the door suddenly opened.
The next moment, Vicky, who had just finished her shower, walked out wrapped in a white towel. She hadn't even had time to buy any pajamas because it all happened so suddenly.
The two locked eyes, and the atmosphere seemed to freeze at that moment.
"Irving, you...why are you at the door?"
Vicky stuttered. Whether from the bath or something else, her cheeks were flushed like ripe apples.
However, that white towel could hardly cover her fair body, especially the huge objects on her chest that seemed ready to spring free at any moment.
Irving felt a wave of embarrassment and explained, "Uh...I forgot you were at my place."
He quickly averted his eyes, but they were too close, and even a split second was enough to catch a glimpse of something.
"I'll go upstairs first, and come down later. You should go to sleep soon."
Saying this, Irving turned around and went back upstairs. He didn't know how much time passed until the noise from downstairs finally ceased, and only then did he open the door to his room.
Seeing that the light in the bedroom across the hall was already turned off, Irving assumed Vicky had gone to sleep. Only then did he feel relieved, and hurried downstairs to shower.
However, he didn't know that Vicky, lying in bed at that moment, was tightly clutching a corner of the blanket. The blush on her cheeks not only had not faded, but had spread to her ears, and the scene just now kept playing in her mind, her heart fluttering like a little deer...
