Chapter 441 - 197: Everyone Showcases Their Divine Power to Dig a Cave_2

Thinking this, he immediately got to work.

With rebar and a hammer, he began chiseling out a cave in the mountain.

First, he used the rebar and hammer to outline a doorway shape, then hammered away at the hole.

With his constitution and strength attribute, he managed to dig out a cave five meters deep and two meters wide in one morning.

Even so, he was exhausted and had to rest for a while.

"Digging a cave by hand is too tiring. If I’m this tired, how can anyone else dig?"

Liang Yuan thought to himself, then suddenly heard a loud noise from downstairs, followed by the sound of a large amount of rock falling.

Startled, Liang Yuan hurried outside to take a look.

He saw a crowd gathered around a lower level of the Bamboo House, with thick smoke billowing out.

Someone shouted, "Brother Kai, you’re amazing!"

"Captain Zhao, this is incredible! You’ve already dug out such a large cave."

"Wow, this must be at least twenty square meters. It’s more than enough to live in."

"The efficiency is incredible."

"Captain Zhao, can you help us dig too? We’ll offer you supplies as payment."

Zhao Kai’s laughter echoed from below, "Sure, no problem, but everyone has to line up. I need to help Captain Liu’s family first."

"Of course, of course."

"I’ll be the first in line."

Liang Yuan was astonished. Zhao Kai wasn’t a Strength-type Superpower User, so how could he be this fast at digging?

After laboring all morning, he had only managed to dig a small hole. Zhao Kai had already dug out a twenty-square-meter cave!

With curiosity, Liang Yuan quickly went downstairs to take a look.

As soon as he got downstairs, he saw Zhao Kai pressing his hands against the cave walls.

A large amount of frost spread out, rapidly freezing the walls.

Crack, crack, the low temperature of the frost spread, causing cracks to appear in the cave’s stone walls.

Without Zhao Kai needing to strike, chunks of rock fell away with a crash.

Zhao Kai quickly jumped out of the cave, letting the rocks fall as the cave expanded.

Liang Yuan was dumbfounded, "What’s going on?"

Someone noticed Liang Yuan and quickly greeted him.

"Mr. Liang is here!"

"Hello, Mr. Liang."

"Are you here to find Captain Zhao too?"

Liang Yuan hurried over to Zhao Kai, calling out, "Zhao Kai, what’s going on? Is your Frost Superpower this strong now? It can even crack stones?"

Hearing Liang Yuan’s voice, Zhao Kai stopped and turned to smile, "Brother Liang, you’re here. It’s not my frost cracking the stones. Look."

He pointed to a pile of freshly burnt rubble on the ground.

Liang Yuan glanced at it and immediately understood.

He couldn’t help but say, "You set a fire in the cave to heat the stones, then used your Frost Superpower to rapidly cool them, using expansion and contraction to break the stones?"

Zhao Kai gave a thumbs up, "Brother Liang, nothing gets past you. Hehe, Tang Ying taught me this method. She’s a college student, always thinking of clever ways."

Liang Yuan sighed inwardly. Indeed, there are no fools in this world.

After laboring all morning, here they were, digging a massive cave in no time.

"Knowledge of science really comes in handy in the post-apocalyptic world."

"Come to my place later," Liang Yuan said directly.

Zhao Kai’s smile froze, "Well... Brother Liang, Feifei’s cave isn’t finished yet."

Liang Yuan was speechless, "You’re forgetting about loyalty for a girl. I’m not asking you to help me dig. I need you to make some ice for me so I can get some ice water. After the walls are heated, ordinary ice water will cool them down quickly."

Zhao Kai laughed again, "Hehe, you should have said so earlier. Making ice is easy, as long as there’s water. I’ll do it right now."

Fearing he’d upset Liang Yuan, Zhao Kai quickly pulled him upstairs.

Liang Yuan didn’t hesitate. He took out multiple solar-powered water barrels from his inventory, one by one, and had Zhao Kai freeze them.

To prevent the ice from melting, he put the barrels back into his inventory.

Zhao Kai was astonished. He spent an hour with Liang Yuan, depleting his superpower before being allowed to leave.

Zhao Kai looked at Liang Yuan resentfully, "Brother Liang, if you’re going to milk someone, don’t just milk me. Tang Ying’s resonance superpower is even faster at digging stones than my method."

"Her hand on the wall works like a drill, making stones fall like rain."

Liang Yuan was excited to get back to work but froze at this news.

"Damn it, I forgot Tang Ying has the resonance superpower!"

"Digging stones is even easier than cutting tofu!"

Liang Yuan looked at his own evolution superpower, suddenly feeling like it was entirely useless.

"Can’t I unlock my evolution superpower unless there’s a crisis?"

He sighed, "Go help your Feifei then."

After chasing Zhao Kai away, he resumed digging the cave.

Liang Yuan felt his evolution superpower wouldn’t evolve in a comfortable environment.

But having to venture out and fight was too dangerous for him.

"Forget it. I’ll just earn points and add Attribute Points."

"I refuse to believe that maxing out all attributes won’t make me invincible."

Putting aside the idea of risking to unleash his evolution superpower, he started a fire in the cave.

As soon as he ignited the fire, he found that mutant bamboo was highly flammable and very resistant to burning.

The more the mutant bamboo turned crimson, the more flammable and burn-resistant it became.
