Chapter 228 Huskies on Duty

Their doghouses didn't even require heating, as the adjustable system settings allowed Kim Haru to turn off the heating option during installation.

"Gojo, keep an eye on them. Make sure they don't start fighting with the plants," Kim Haru instructed after setting up the doghouses, still a bit worried.

Unlike animals that hibernate deeply, the plants on the farm were in a state more akin to contemplation—like someone lying in bed awake but too lazy to move. They were aware of their surroundings and could react when necessary, but most of the time, they simply didn't bother. Otherwise, the humans would have long eradicated them during their dormant periods.

Some plants, such as the Unmelted Frost Bamboo Tree that Kim Haru had summoned before, didn't hibernate at all.

If the Cryo Wolf caused too much trouble, the plants could easily retaliate.

Go Okrim acknowledged the request with a nod and followed the Cryo Wolf trail. Their massive footprints in the snow were impossible to miss.

With Go Okrim watching the dogs, Kim Haru turned his attention to crafting sleds and skis.

Before the Cryo Wolf arrived, he had planned to prioritize making skis. However, with the arrival of these sled-pulling dogs, his focus naturally shifted to sleds.

Sleds were incredibly convenient—you could sit back and let the dogs do the work while also transporting goods.

Of course, Kim Haru didn't know how to make sleds, so he unlocked the sled blueprint in the system for 1,000 gold coins. Guided step by step by the system, he began the crafting process. Stay tuned for updates on My Virtual Library Empire

It took him two full days to complete a single-person sled.

During those two days, the Cryo Wolf—Snowball No. 1, Snowball No. 2, and the rest—became familiar with the farm and stopped fighting over doghouses or forgetting which one was theirs. Their favorite activities quickly became mealtime and playtime.

Kim Haru always fed the Cryo Wolf before he and Go Okrim ate. There was one instance when he ate first, and the chaos the Cryo Wolf caused during his meal was nearly unmanageable—they almost knocked down the wooden door of their cabin, despite it being the product of the system.

After that, Kim Haru learned his lesson and always fed them first. Though they still gathered to watch him eat afterward, at least they were much calmer.

Now, finally, the sled was complete. Kim Haru stood in front of it, immensely satisfied.

The sled, built according to the system's blueprint, had a considerable surface area.

It was designed to be pulled by two dogs simultaneously, making it easier to maneuver.

The front even had a windshield, though Kim Haru, of course, couldn't have crafted glass in just two days.

The system's crafting station produced the final product from the incomplete sled he had built.

"Gojo, call back two of the dogs for me," Haru said eagerly. He couldn't wait to test the sled's capabilities.

Soon, the dogs returned.

Not just the two he had asked for—all eleven of them came bounding back. They had heard that their favorite human was calling, so they all rushed over enthusiastically.

Then, one by one, they curiously circled around the sled.

It must have been some sled dog instinct because as soon as the dogs realized Kim Haru was picking two of them to pull this strange vehicle with no wheels, they all got extremely excited, each of them was vying to be chosen by him.
