"Mhm... right, you only got fragnts," Kai muttered, recalling that Claire had ntioned it to him earlier.
Apparently, they had only managed to obtain a fragnt, while Kai had been rewarded with a complete Talent Upgrade Crystal after securing Rank 1 on the Leaderboard during the first cycle.
Then, the next upgrade crystal ca after becoming the first Guild Leader.
After sharing that with i, she could only accept that it would be really difficult to upgrade a Talent.
Right now, she only had 2 Fragnts... If her only way of getting one was staying within the Top 20 Survivors, it would take her three more months to achieve that.
"I hope there’s another thod to get them." She muttered.
"I’ll let you know if I find sothing related. Maybe the Reputation Store will sell one soday." Kai said as he believed that it was possible, considering the fact that the store was selling system-related items like the Guild Expansion Token.
After Kai explained the Talent Upgrade Crystal’s existence, he soon realized that it was getting late.
"We’ll stay here tonight. Tomorrow, we’ll continue our journey to Caron City. But for now, this shelter needs rebuilding."
The six of them, Kai, i, Alfie, Claire, Farrah, and Ralph, imdiately set to work.
Since this place was basically part of their Guild already, they weren’t just going to leave this place broken. They felt that they had a responsibility to strengthen the places under their protection.
Kai walked outside with Wallace and the others, surveying the cracked walls and makeshift tents.
The locals, twenty‑six in total, had all just finished satisfying their hunger. They regained so energy, but they still needed so rest.
However, Kai and his team couldn’t stay here for long, so they must work imdiately. Soon, he raised his voice so everyone could hear.
"From today onward, Codebreakers will take care of this shelter. You’ll have food, water, and protection. But we’ll need your cooperation to rebuild this place..."
Of course, the announcent was still with cheers and relieved murmurs.
Children clapped, while the adults nodded eagerly.
Kai then activated his Infinite Gift Pack system and withdrew several Gift Packs.
[ Shelter Gift Pack (Enhanced)
Contents: field tent, insulated sleeping bag, heavy‑duty flashlight, thermal blanket, heavy‑duty raincoat. ]
[ Shelter Gift Pack (Superior)
Contents: modular survival pod, weatherproof clothing set, periter alarm system set, portable air filtration device, calming incense set, and sleeping bag. ]
He opened five Enhanced Shelter Gift Packs and two Superior Shelter Gift Packs. Imdiately, crates materialized, filled with neatly packed supplies.
The locals gasped in amazent.
Field tents were unfolded and raised, giving families proper shelter for the first ti in a while.
As soon as it was built, children ran inside, laughing as they touched the insulated sleeping bags. Heavy‑duty flashlights were distributed. Then, thermal blankets and raincoats were handed out, ensuring protection against the elents.
After all, from a single Enhanced Pack, they could already have three flashlights and three raincoats.
But the greatest excitent ca when Kai revealed the two Superior Gift Packs. The modular survival pods were unlike anything the locals had ever seen. Compact crates unfolded into sturdy fras.
Soon, they built the pods...
The panels clicked into place, and in just a few minutes, the pods were assembled step by step... These pods may not be big, but they would provide secure, insulated living quarters.
After that, the portable air filtration devices humd softly, providing them with clean air. Weatherproof clothing sets were also distributed, replacing the ragged garnts the survivors had worn for months.
Then, the periter alarm systems were carefully installed. As soon as they learned what it could do, it reassured everyone that danger would be detected before it struck!
Finally, the calming incense was lit near the pods, and its faint aroma was already easing the tension in the air. Just like that, the shelter felt like a place of peace...
Vera then approached Kai hesitantly. "Sir... Leader Kai... if I wanted more of these Gift Packs... could I pay with potions or Survivor dals? Or maybe so other ways?"
As she said the last part, Kai noticed that she had sohow fixed her hair.
"Ahem..."
Anyway, Kai studied her carefully before answering. "I spend Survivor dals to obtain these. If you want extra Gift Packs, I’ll only accept Survivor dals. And this must remain secret."
Vera’s eyes widened, then she nodded quickly. "I promise. I’ll keep it secret. I’ll collect Survivor dals, and once I have enough, I’ll let you know."
Kai gave a faint smile. "Good..."
Soon, the night settled over the shelter, as they stayed with the tents...
They then had so late snacks before they wrapped themselves in thermal blankets, and slept soundly.
Tomorrow, they will be traveling to Caron City!
***
The next morning, before leaving the shelter that Vera and the others had begun calling Blue Grass Shelter, Kai decided to make one final check.
He retrieved the Status Crystal, its faint glow pulsing as he poured Spirit Energy into it.
[ Status Crystal: A rare crystal that reveals the complete status of the person who touches it. When activated, it displays their na, title, level, skills, and stats for exactly 10 seconds before fading.
Cooldown: 30 seconds
Charge: 50 ]
Kai held the crystal up for everyone to see what must be done.
The survivors lined up nervously. One by one, they placed their hands on the crystal.
The first was a middle‑aged man.
