Lin Yue turned on the air conditioning, and the cool breeze started blowing, gradually expelling the stale air from the basement.
"Much more comfortable... But seriously, those moral blackmailers are really ridiculous."
Lin Yue recalled their words again.
Even if he did send out air conditioners one by one out of sheer benevolence, those people didn’t have any power generators.
Was he supposed to act like a saint and set up the generators for them too?
Might as well take care of their meals and sleep as well, eh?
How about just dropping dead?
People who don’t strive for themselves and just look at those doing well thinking they must put in the effort to save them—that kind of mentality is seriously problematic.
Why don’t they come up with solutions themselves or consider working harder?
Just lying around waiting for rescue and resorting to moral blackmail—seriously?
Besides, Lin Yue found it strange how such people hadn’t been eliminated after so many disasters; it was indeed a bit unbelievable.
The world is full of unfairness, and such unfairness has also created a kind of balance.
The pyramid has always existed, from ancient times to now, from Earth to the Otherworld.
He’s not interested in saving humanity; he does what he can, but he’s not a babysitter or a saint.
"Whatever, let them say what they want. It’s not the first time anyway," Lin Yue said, as he opened the system panel again and found the blueprint for a structure he had built before.
Soon, a small and rather rough stone bath appeared in a corner of the room!
The stone bath was small, one meter high and two meters long and wide; building just one was far from enough.
With nearly five hundred Little Ice Lizards, at least fifty baths need to be built, right?
Excluding the 150 square meters of rest space, this vast underground shelter still had 250 square meters for him to utilize.
Then, he might as well pave the entire area with baths.
As for dampness and mold after a while, there’s nothing he can do right now; if you overthink everything, nothing gets done, right?
Soon, Lin Yue built another fifty-nine stone baths. Except for some passageway space and rest areas, the place was nearly filled with baths!
"The water usage can be considered huge, but I have even more underground river water I’ve brought back," Lin Yue said as he gradually poured the underground river water from his Storage Space into the linked, massive 240 square meter bath!
Soon, as the water level slowly rose and reached the edge, Lin Yue stopped immediately before it overflowed!
Then he added some stones into the bath as rest spots, and after setting it up, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Alright, it was finally built!
Although it’s still quite primitive, it should be a decent living environment for the Little Ice Lizards.
With that done, it’s a good breaking point.
Lin Yue stretched and went back to the main shelter through the door.
He took out some food and distributed it again to Bai and the Little Ice Lizards.
Eat and rest well, and tomorrow they should be able to start their training, right?
What Lin Yue wanted was an Ice Lizard Corps that could hold its ground independently, and grow to the point where they could guard a resource point on their own.
And today was the first step.
"Bai, you can lead the Little Ice Lizards to your new bedroom area to rest; it’s much more comfortable there," Lin Yue said, patting Bai on the shoulder. This little guy worked hard too, spending the day helping him with the tedious moving, and then followed along to the Underground Ruins for a big fight, and even facilitated smooth communication with the Little Ice Lizards thanks to its enthusiasm.
These Little Ice Lizards would become his reliable helpers in the future, and Bai’s role was crucial in this regard.
"Gawu," Bai seemed quite tired as well, and with a low growl, directed the Little Ice Lizards, who were obediently listening to its commands, to hurry downstairs to the basement.
Lin Yue followed behind them as they entered the area together.
He soon heard the joyous and satisfied sounds from Bai and the Little Ice Lizards.
As long as they’re happy.
Unlike those greedy, morally blackmailing people, the Little Ice Lizards were more straightforward and obedient and didn’t have many requests.
Besides, they would become even more loyal in the future... The source of thɪs content is novel{f}ire.net

[Congratulations, you...]
Lin Yue suddenly noticed the system notifications started flooding the screen!
And the noises persisted continuously, lasting for a good five to six minutes!
It took Lin Yue a moment to realize that all the Little Ice Lizards had completely submitted to him.
All the Little Ice Lizards, including the previous ones, became his pets.
Oh, is this an unbeatable setup?
If they all evolved, it seems like taking down the Lizardmen and beggars wouldn’t be a problem, huh?
"Gawu!" "Bloop bloop!"
Bai and the Little Ice Lizards seemed really happy, appearing to really like the place.
Lin Yue nodded and left the area, walking through the basement to reach his bathroom.
He took off his night vision nightwear and enjoyed a good shower.
While the Lizardman’s Sweat Blood was powerful, its stench was indeed intense, and he used quite a bit of soap to get rid of it.
