My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 119: Alternative Upgrades, Blessings Of Reversion!

An ordinary safehouse core would be smaller than the palm of a hand. It would look pretty tiny and very cute, sort of like a key pendant.

Kento Maeda’s safehouse core was somewhat palm-sized and looked a bit like a mature turtle in a fish tank.

However, when Su Mo looked at the core of the Underground Shelter that had fallen from the air at this moment, his mouth could not help but drop open.

“Damn, I didn’t know that my safehouse core could be so awesome!”

Although the cracks on the turtle armor lying on the ground had not been reduced, with a body that was already about 50cm long, it looked quite mighty.

Especially since, from the cracks in the turtle armor, several rays of light burst out like special effects from time to time.

Su Mo could see the lights very clearly.

Those a little weaker were sky blue. As the light gushed out, Su Mo could vaguely hear waves of the sea and, at the same time, a mysterious and abnormal sound dispersed.

Those a little stronger were cyan. The cyan was different from the normal green; there was an ocher pigment mixed into it, like a tornado destroying the parking lot, raging everywhere on the back of the turtle, and forcing the sky blue to flee everywhere.

“These two lights should be the two extraordinary blessings that the shelter possesses now.”

“The lion people’s blessing does not look very friendly though, chasing the mermaid’s blessing everywhere…”

Su Mo tried to retract the core silently. In the blink of an eye, the giant turtle armor that was lying on the ground suddenly turned into a transparent phantom, and then gradually disappeared into the shelter.

This disappearance of the core caused a bold idea to surge into Su Mo’s heart without reason.

At this time, Su Mo, who was still in the bath barrel relaxing, could not sit still anymore. He stepped out of the barrel and summoned some wind to dry off the moisture from his body.

Putting on his clothes, Su Mo silently summoned the core again, and the giant turtle armor fell heavily onto the same spot once again.

“If the safehouse core is a real object, and the extraordinary blessings above can be seen, then logically my upgrade system could…”

When he focused mentally on the giant turtle armor, as expected, an illusory attribute interface popped up.

[???]

[Description: A sacred artifact with two extraordinary powers. One can derive a series of incredible functions with the help of the sacred artifact. There seems to be a close connection between the sacred artifact and the host. Recommended upgrade priority: High.]

[Water: Mermaid’s Water]: It is a branch blessing of the “Water” family, and is blessed by ordinary mermaids with low strength. Has good upgrade potential.]

[Upgrade direction 1: Increase the level of blessing, enhance the ability of the blessing, and expand the scope of the blessing. Survival points required (480)]

[Upgrade direction 2: Improve the quality of the blessing, transform it into the mermaid sacrificial blessing, and increase blessing potential. Survival points required (2200)]

[Wind: Lion’s Wind]: It is a branch blessing of the “Wind” family inherited from the shattered wooden Lion God Sculpture. Has good upgrade potential.]

[Upgrade direction 1: Increase the level of blessing, enhance the ability of the blessing, and expand the scope of the blessing. Survival points required (800)]

[Upgrade direction 2: Improve the quality of the blessing, transform it into the lion sacrificial blessing, slightly increase blessing attributes, and increase blessing potential. Survival points required (3100)]

[Comment: An extremely magical item, please take good care of it, otherwise, disasters are imminent!]

“It can be upgraded, and it can be upgraded this way…”

Su Mo looked at the prompts raised on the attribute panel in shock, and at the two upgrade directions that were given.

The first upgrade direction was equivalent to strengthening the attribute ability, which is equivalent to upgrading the blessing from lv1 to lv2, with some bonus upgrades.

However, the second upgrade direction was especially remarkable. It could directly change the quality of the blessing, even reaching the level of “transformation”, which was terrifying!

“So, as long as I have enough survival points, I can even obtain the most advanced and wind attributes by transformation?”

Stroking along the cracks the giant turtle armor, he felt the light of two extraordinary powers slipping between the fingers of his hand. Were it not for the survival points currently being insufficient for the second upgrade, Su Mo wanted to boldly try the upgrade to see its effects.

Retracting the core silently, Su Mo watched the giant turtle armor slowly disappear. The future now held a new goal for Su Mo.

To earn more survival points!

This was a bigger goal than collecting items!

As long as there were enough survival points, he could keep the shelter firmly out of the grasp of other people. Even if Jesus came, he would not be able to keep it!

“I want to maintain the number of daily activities I have currently. I won’t just stay and hide away in the shelter. This way I’ll be able to speed up the collection of survival points.”

Su Mo opened the private message channel that held his doomsday records, and he solemnly recorded this statement down.

Su Mo turned back to use the storage space and placed the bath barrels in the corner. He fished out Big Spark and Little Spark, as well as the sleeping Oreo.

The power of “wind” began to surge and, within a minute, there was no trace of water on the three small bodies. It was truly useful other than having the disadvantage of not being able to blow hot air.

Clean, white and chubby.

Oreo’s once dusty fur had become incomparably pure. Black was black, white was white, without any variegated color.

On the wings of Big Spark and Little Spark, there were a few traces of red stains. As the wings shook, they looked unusually gorgeous.

After soothing the three to sleep, and checking again that there was no danger near the shelter, Su Mo returned to the small bed as well, looking forward to tomorrow’s arrival.

Compared to the anxiety that he had when he first arrived in the Doomsday world, he now felt that the development of the current shelter was finally on the right track.

Every day, countless tasks were waiting for Su Mo to accomplish.

Su Mo laid on the bed, plugged in the heated pad, and adjusted it to a low level. The resistance wire began to heat up slowly, heating the soft bed.

The relaxation brought about by the bath was comparable to an expensive massage, relaxing both his mind and body.

It did not take long for Su Mo’s breathing to gradually calm down.

…

His vision drifted off out of the bedroom…

The world outside the shelter would not stop advancing just because Su Mo was asleep.

Time too, would not slow down because of sleep.

In the face of the harsh snow, even a large shelter with hundreds of people had to face a mammoth problem:

Energy source!

In the world on Earth, very few ordinary people would think about energy issues.

If there was no electricity, then electricity would return if the bill was paid. If there was no water, then water would also be available after the bill was paid.

When one was hungry, they could order takeaway. When one was thirsty, buying a drink would do.

When the car was out of gas, one could find a gas station and fill it up in a few minutes.

In a fast-paced society, who would carefully think about where their electricity came from, or where the water came from, or where petroleum diesel came from?

This time, after arriving at the wasteland, whether it was leaders or civilians, the issues surrounding energy sources were at the forefront for everyone.

In the cold wind of minus ten degrees at night, each piece of wood could only supply a minimal amount of heat and, at the same time, it would deplete the already limited reserves left.

There were two or three hundred people in a large shelter. If ten people were in a room, ten units of firewood would be needed for warmth for one night.

While it might seem that one person only needed one unit, but if one looked at the consumption of the whole shelter, it became very overwhelming.

A shelter for three hundred people consumed three hundred units of wood in one night.

If one could not make up for the consumption of these three hundred units in the daytime, the shelter’s inventory would be reduced.

Once the inventory could not match the consumption, it would enter a vicious cycle.

Cold at night, and without energy during the day; more food would be consumed, and fewer resources would be harvested. As it becomes colder at night, people would start to freeze to death.

This vision was playing out across the wasteland. The number of wooden houses was declining, instead being replaced by simple nests.

In the cold winter, more and more people had given up living in wooden houses.

Instead, they chose to listen to the tutorials on the World Chat channel and set up a simple nest for warmth.

All the people who were still alive hugged each other tightly throughout the cold night, relying on each others’ body heat to keep warm.

At the same time, there were quite a few people who had completely fallen asleep on this night—

Who slept quietly and were gone silently.

Other than the shelter that stood quietly in the wasteland, proving that they have once been in this world, there were no other traces remaining.

If one could see things from God’s perspective, they would be surprised to find that:

In some places, the wind and waves were calm, and even the snow had stopped, but in other places, the wind raged and the blizzard intensified.

Over the plains, the sign of the Tundra Refuge swayed back and forth in the cold wind.

Behind the sign, the fire in the innermost large room flickered.

“Yongyi, hurry up and make a decision. If such winds and snow continue for another day, it will be an unbearable loss for us!”

After hearing the words of the person beside him, the man who was addressed as Yongyi had a troubled expression. He looked as if he was deep in thought, but then he sighed and said nothing.

Seeing his expression, the man beside him became even more anxious, “If you don’t make a decision today, we will have to grind through yet another day. In this kind of weather, do you know how much material loss we will have to endure in a day?”

“What’s more, if we continue down this road, when the day comes where we can’t bear the consequences of the disaster, what kind of losses will we have to bear?”

“Lu Yongyi, we will continue to suffer from the chaos if this goes on. If you don’t make a decision, I’ll do it!”

The man slapped the table, speaking the personal truth he felt. This immediately awakened Lu Yongyi.

However, Lu Yongyi sighed immediately, “Qiu Xinghuo, have you forgotten our previous slogan when recruiting personnel? Absolute democracy and absolute freedom. Now if we were to do this, then our previous reputation and credit, who would believe it?”

Reputation took a long time to accumulate, but would only take a moment to be ruined.

Qiu Xinghuo understood this truth but, at this moment, seeing the state of his old friend, he was also depressed.

The collection of safehouse cores by one person; it was a theory that was simple to say but difficult to handle.

Once someone else’s mark was imprinted, every word and deed, and even storage space, would be monitored by others.

In the current situation, it was pure pressure!

It was considered okay for the civilians. As long as they could survive, they would not care about being monitored. In the civilized era of Earth, it was not new anyway; privacy was often stolen by major apps.

The problem lay with the groups of people who were relatively strong. As long as these people were unwilling, they would never be able to keep them in line!

“Ying Tianlong…”

“If it doesn’t work, I am willing to be this sinner for everyone to keep on living!” Seeing his old friend stuck in a quandary over the decision, Qiu Xinghuo’s face became certain, as if he had made an important decision.
