Dormitory group chat, my information updated daily.

"Ah...that was a good night's sleep! Good morning, Ayun, what skill did you choose last night?"

"Mana Flow"

"Oh? That sounds really cool. Show me how it's done."

"Look, isn't it awesome?"

As Ji Mingyu took the short stick from Xiao Yun and felt the supple yet sturdy texture of the physical magic, his lips twitched wildly.

"Indeed... awesome..."

Seeing Ji Mingyu's speechless expression, Xiao Yun revealed a mischievous smile.

His research results last night certainly went beyond this. Although he couldn't create things out of thin air with magic and launch various gorgeous and powerful ranged attacks, it was enough to repair the [Broken Mithril Sword].

The Mithril Sword, after being replenished with [Mana Flow], truly feels like an extension of one's own arm, greatly increasing its maneuverability. When necessary, the mana attached to the sword can be flung out, used as a mana grenade.

There is still room for further development, but it is sufficient for now.

Handing the short stick back to Xiao Yun, Ji Mingyu carefully wiped his hands as he asked:

"What's the plan for today? Everyone's strength has increased significantly. How about we go explore that dormitory building over there? I don't see anything much going on today, so it's a good time to explore."

Xiao Yun frowned slightly and gently shook his head.

It's 7 kilometers from here to dormitory building number 4. Even if we rush, it would take most of the day to go back and forth. If we are delayed any further, we might not be able to get back today.

According to the system's forecast yesterday, there will be thunderstorms and strong winds tomorrow, and gales will begin today. Leaving the shelter to explore in such severe weather is not a good choice.

"No, I consulted the oracle yesterday. The weather is bad today, not suitable for long journeys... Hmm, the same goes for tomorrow."

Xiao Yun spoke calmly, while Ji Mingyu looked at him with a complicated expression:

"How come I didn't know you could tell fortunes?"

"Never mind that, I've already figured it out."

"Alright..."

Ji Mingyu was already used to it and accepted Xiao Yun's suggestion.

"So what are we going to do today? Go fishing again?"

"Ugh... Ming-ge, don't you get sick of seeing people on the air force all the time?"

Zhong Mo sighed softly and asked with concern.

"You bastard...did you forget to turn off your taunt skill?"

Ji Mingyu was furious, grabbed it, and refined it in an instant.

"How about... we try to reach out to the student council? I heard they went all out yesterday to get people to attend the forum, giving away two sausages to everyone who participated."

Last night when I went to find Qin Zhou, I happened to run into Huang Haoran, from whom I learned a lot of information about the dormitory building.

Although a sausage isn't much, it's still pretty good to get it for free.

"I'm afraid I won't be able to collect it today."

Wang Tianyuan, with a smug smile on his lips, explained:

"We got back late last night and missed the 'gathering of heroes' scene. There were people using different names and ranks to get half a box of sausages for free, people stirring up trouble and arguing during student council speeches, people fighting each other on the spot, and a bunch of guys who just wanted to watch the show and took all the chairs and banners that the student council had prepared in the chaos..."

Wang Tianyuan's description was vivid and extremely vivid.

"Didn't we come back together? How do you know so much?"

"You forgot that Xie from cell 302 is a student council janitor? He told me that last night when we were smoking together."

Wang Tianyuan chuckled and explained mysteriously:

"Brother Jie also said that the student council is going to make a big move today. That guy named Qi Xiaoran is going to do something big to establish the prestige of the student council."

"Prestige? The student council is a complete mess, it has no prestige whatsoever."

Ji Mingyu chuckled softly, glancing at Xiao Yun, awaiting his plan.

"We received a lot of supplies, materials, and buildings yesterday. Today, we'll integrate them and turn them into our strength."

"If you have time this afternoon, take a walk around the east side of Xingyue Lake. I passed by Huang Haoran's dormitory yesterday and heard him mention that someone discovered an exposed iron ore mine there."

"An open-pit iron mine? Why doesn't he mine such a valuable resource himself?"

"Because he is kind..."

Xiao Yun nodded seriously, while Ji Mingyu rolled his eyes helplessly.

"Alright, speaking of Huang Haoran, the [herbal medicine making recipe] he gave us is particularly useful, and the materials are relatively simple. Let's go down and collect some."

"Okay, you guys go ahead. Remember to collect some stones and wood too, and make a few stone pickaxes. We'll need them later. I'll organize the resources I gathered yesterday in the dorm."

"OK."

The group tacitly divided the work and began their busy work.

Xiao Yun picked up the various building and resource cards left behind by his brothers and busied himself in the dormitory.

I counted the Home Expansion Cards (small) and found there were a total of 7.

Four of them were contributed by Zhao Pengfei, and the other three were settlement rewards from Zhong Mo and Wang Tianyuan over the past two days.

In addition to the Homestead Expansion Card (Small), Xiao Yun also received 3 Homestead Expansion Cards (Medium) in the past two days.

"Now we have quite a few space expansion cards, so we can expand the living area, and the rest can be used to expand the work area and balcony."

Having made up his mind, Xiao Yun unleashed a seven-shot burst of fire in the residential area with great flair.

Boom boom boom—

The space was stretched and extended, producing a sound like a drumbeat.

While in the expanding area, Xiao Yun felt a shaking as if an earthquake had struck, and he was so dizzy that he almost lost his balance and fell to the ground.

Quickly grab the handrail of the bunk bed, and after a few seconds, the invisible vibration slowly stopped.

Xiao Yun snapped out of his daze and looked around.

Apart from the area becoming much larger, there's not much change.

"It suddenly feels so empty. I can put a table in the middle to store various odds and ends, or even a sand table..."

Xiao Yun strolled around the residential area and nodded in satisfaction.

There are three Home Expansion Cards (Medium) left, each of which can expand the space by 50 square meters. Xiao Yun used two of them in the work area and one in the balcony expansion area.

Rumbling--

This time the commotion was even greater, with a sound like muffled thunder.

Having learned his lesson, Xiao Yun didn't stand in the expanded area this time, thus avoiding suffering and clearly witnessing the entire expansion process.

It was like a neatly folded piece of paper being unfolded, with ripples flowing through the air before my eyes, only to disappear again in a short time.

Once the expansion was complete, a nearly 200-square-meter "large single-level" apartment appeared before us.

The vegetable garden, which originally occupied a quarter of the area, has become a tiny plot of land after this major expansion. The E-grade spring and worktable, among other small buildings, have become tiny dots in the field of vision.

The balcony, which was originally quite crowded and filled with facilities such as washrooms, storage rooms, and campfires, has been expanded into a large terrace.

"Hmm, a large single-level apartment with a large terrace, it looks quite like a wealthy family's home."

Xiao Yun couldn't hide his joy as he looked at his home, which had undergone a complete transformation, and a sense of pride welled up in his heart.

After everyone else returned, we cleaned and tidied up, and the dorm started to feel more like a home, no longer the cramped pigeon coop it used to be...

Just then, the door to the room was pushed open.

The next second, three exclamations rang out simultaneously.

Holy crap!

"Holy crap?"

"Holy crap—"

The three of them stared blankly at the unfamiliar dormitory room.
