Legendary Shelter Survival Guide

"We don't need a wheel because we are not normal humans. My wife here is able to pick 70kgs without breaking a sweat. The point is, till we can figure out how to make a proper wheel. We can just get a container from my brother and put the waste in it."

"I think I can make a wheel, what would be needed? Wood and something to carve it into the shape of a wheel right?" Jerry said while sitting on the lush grass comfortably.

"You can do that but why waste time? You can give it to your training and the free time to help out in the upcoming things."

"Alright, I guess..."

"Okay, after we get the proper equipment, we just need to excavate the land that we mark and it's going to take some time and work."

"And the work is done then?"

"Not in the least, we need to make the borders of the canal big so that there is no case of flooding or water leak. For that, we can put wood or big rocks at the curves but we will just do that when the time comes." John finally stopped and took a breather.

"And what did you say how did you know all this?" Lucas asked with intrigue.

"A video I watched in the break at my work. Haha... everyone used to tell me that it's just a waste of knowledge that I am gaining and wasting time but what do you know, things have a way of turning to our side." He said, a rare sweet smile plastered on his face, his eyes were nostalgic and no one interrupted.

"You all had your eyes figured out on something, but I didn't. God, it must be tough for you all to have your lives just change overnight."

Everyone looked at Lucas, there was some kind of pity in his voice that some related to yet some loathed.

"I won't say that my life was all figured out but yeah, me and my family lived a good life back in our home." Explore more stories with empire

"Me and my sister on the other hand were used to just sit in our homes enjoying when our brother worked his ass off all day for us. I wanted to support him but... he always said that it was his life's dream to let us enjoy all our life..." Sandra said, her eyes a bit wet and she sniffled one time until she controlled her emotions inwardly.

"It's good, Sandra. That you feel we are close enough to share all this with us. It means a lot. And from now on, if anyone has something weighing on their mind, just find someone to talk to. We live in a very peculiar state and mental breakdown is something we have to take care of. Be careful everyone and stay healthy, I feel like there is a long road ahead."

Lucas said when most of what he blabbered was for his heart.

Many smiles and many had determined faces after listening to Lucas.

"Thanks, Lucas, I will try." Sandra gave a smile and got up to continue her routine.

"Where do you think you are going, Bill, check her status and tell me the progress quickly."

Sandra's eyes twitched and she stopped, she thought Lucas would just let her go after what she said but it seems it was not the case at all.

"Her water generating is at level 3 and 40% proficiency, Necromantic Ritual is level 2 with 88% proficiency, and lastly, sprint which is at level 3 with 20% of proficiency," Bill said aloud making Sandra feel naked in front of everyone.

"Good, your progress is great for only half a month," Lucas said with a smile.

'Damn, it must be nice having just 3 skills.' Lucas grumbled inwardly after listening to her progress.

"Alright, now Haley."

"I-I think we should not do that." Haley said with a slightly pale expression, Lucas squinted his eyes and gave a 'do it' expression to Bill who in turn blabbered at his friend like it was nothing.

"Cooking skill is at level 3 with 55% proficiency, Accuracy at level 3 with 2% proficiency, the kick is level 1 with 10% proficiency, and lastly... U-Unarmed combat level 0 with 3% proficiency."

"You couldn't have ignored the last part, you bastard!" Haley said while clicking her tongue at Bill.

"I could have but it's for your own good, Haley. You got it since yesterday and your progress is nothing. As your friend, it is my duty whether you like it or not."

"Uhhh..." Haley while listening to Bill looked at a certain someone who was staring dagger at him.

"Ohh... you got it since yesterday... good... good... very good." Lucas was smiling yet his tone said otherwise making Haley avert her gaze.

"You will spar with Jerry in the afternoon today, no excuses. Alright next."

"Mike has- level 3 fire bullet with 88% proficiency, Geomancy is level 2 with 61% proficiency, accuracy level 3 with 21% proficiency."

"88% and level 3? Damnn!" Lucas had his eyes wide, till now, Mike had the best proficiency and he knew it was better than his anyway.

"Practicing it is easy."

"Alright, next."

"Jerry has- Strong skin level 2 with 98%, frost aura level 2 with 10%, gauntlet fighting level 3 with 48%, shield-wielding level 3 with 56%, unarmed combat level 3 with 33%."

"John has- Wind manipulation level 3 with 68%, Wind arrow level 2 with 93%, Spearmanship level 2 with 12%, Bowmanship level 2 with 88%, unarmed combat level 3 with 56%, Accuracy level 3 with 68%, leatherwork level 2 with 20%"

"It seems the front liners have a lot of skills," Bill remarked after describing.

"Sarah has- Fireball level 3 with 87%, sprint level 3 with 20%, Electric elemental conjuring level 0 with 3%, and... Uh..." Bill stopped at the last on the last one while he looked at Sarah with worry.

"HIghtened anger level 1 with 12%"
