Chapter 185: Florida Man Trains First Killing Robot Prototype by Giving It Driving Lessons
While Felix was busy bringing the paladins over to the island, Diana also had her hands full dealing with a new batch of priestesses and paladins, who arrived at the island through their flying carpets. She transferred them to the Fate Plaza and explained the agreements and the new customs of this land.The 300 newcomers had no issue with the arrangement and the non-aggression pact between the monster girls and the church. The senior priestesses took a break to recharge their mana, preparing to go back and fetch another batch of civilians. As for the rest, they joined Zen's group, helping clear the purified forest.
Before nightfall, the senior priestesses flew north to pick up more people and their belongings. Crossing the path with them, Felix reached home via the land route.
Bringing 20 tall paladins on board, Felix drove the truck back to his island, following the trail left behind by Diana when she drove home. As the trees and obstacles had already been plowed by the truck's barrier, the journey was smooth sailing.
Going through Aero City and arriving at his floating island took only five hours. He managed to come before the nightfall.
Meanwhile, the paladins at the back all had purple faces. They kept circulating their aura to fight carsickness. One of them vomited rainbow lunch at the side of the truck. No one had enough energy to pursue his pants anymore.
Felix operated the Fate Plaza and sent everybody to the island. After the teleportation, the girls nearly collapsed due to the dizziness and the sudden changes in altitude.
He came into another issue. As it was almost nighttime, these people didn't have enough time to build a shelter for themselves. As Felix didn't want to take them into his house, he wondered if he could invest some of his excess lifespans to purchase some small homes or modern tents.
Once again, Felix opened the system shop and navigated to the camping and tent sections. All assortment of tents and tools were on display. He picked the recommended bundle sales, which consisted of a cotton canvas tent, a portable bed, cooking tools, and survival kits.
Purchasing 20 sets of them cost him only 10,000 years of lifespan, which was very affordable. After the purchase, he ejected the items from his inventory and called them over.
"Ladies, these will be your temporary shelter for the night. One person per camping set. Come up and take your tent so that we can start preparing dinner and call it a day. I'm going to go back and fetch another batch of settlers to help tonight."
The girls, who had never seen modern canvas tents before, gathered around to look. They were used to cone tents, made of linen or rough clothes. Seeing the sophisticated shapes and unknown parts, they got curious.
"Is that… a hole for a window?" One of them lifted the tent and flipped it around, inspecting its parts.
"The texture is soft. What is this made of?" Another kept stroking the tent.
Felix cleared his throat and explained, "This is called 'Canvas Tent'. It has windows for the airflow to enter, so you won't feel suffocated when you are sleeping inside."
The girls widened their eyes in astonishment.
Their military tents were usually windowless, and the only path for the airflow was the front entrance. Every night, they could barely breathe when they slept, and it never felt comfortable unless they poked holes in their tents to get some fresh air.
Thus, upon hearing about the ventilation, they got excited. Everybody picked up their supplies and fiddled with their tents.
Felix then introduced the manuals, which came with the tents. Fortunately, the images in the manual were easy to understand even though the girls couldn't read the words. They easily assembled the parts in minutes.
The girls were fast learners. As Cornelia had mentioned, they were adept craftswomen. Everybody picked their desired location for a camp near the plaza and set up their tents.
It only took them less than two minutes to complete. They also gleefully accepted the survival kits and cooking utensils, provided by Felix.
Felix smiled in satisfaction. He then
