My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 195: Opening The Treasure Chest, Fourfold Gains

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Over the past few days, except for watering the plants, the crop culture room was the abode of Oreo, Big Spark, and Little Spark.

Even Su Mo did not notice that the height of the garlic sprouts was lower than the previous few days.

Now that he was examining them, and comparing them with the garlic sprouts from his memory, Su Mo was surprised to find that the sprouts had been shortened by at least two or three centimeters.

At this rate, in another week, these garlic sprouts would usher in the harvest of his first ingredient.

“The garlic sprouts are retracting back into the garlic. Could it be that with bald heads their effects can become even stronger?”

After ruffling his disheveled hair that had not been trimmed for over 20 days, Su Mo endured his greed and gluttony and decisively left the crop culture room after looking at the exaggerated properties of the garlic and cabbage.

For now, these two plants were far from reaching their mature state. Even for the cabbage, he had to wait a day or two before they could be properly harvested.

“Garlic is a strategic resource. If used correctly, they can be life-saving during critical moments!”

The doubled power attribute effect that could be used during certain life or death moments was similar to the effects of the “strong pills” detailed in martial arts novels.

As for the negative effects that were stated later, Su Mo directly ignored them.

“I would not be able to eat three heads of raw garlic but, if I can find a way to marinate them into sweet and sour garlic, paired with some buns...”

Swallowing the saliva in his mouth, Su Mo went to the command operations room to observe his surroundings. After confirming that there were no changes outside, he opened the stone door and the garage gate one by one and stepped outside.

Without the constraints of the blizzard, the weather in the wasteland would always be as hot as summer.

After more than one day of high temperature, the loose snow in the basin had completely hardened. Under these conditions, even Earth Tiger could travel steadily.

“It’s usually not cold when it snows, but cold when it melts!”

“But in this 20-degree weather, somehow even the melting snow is not cold!”

The melting of snow on the ground would usually be accompanied by a slow drop in temperature due to the additional heat required to evaporate the melted snow. During this period, it was easy to lose body heat to the surrounding cold air.

However, it was different in the wasteland. In the span of a single day, the temperature of 20 degrees below zero could return to 20 degrees above zero. The temperature difference of forty degrees could overturn the cold of melting snow.

The mighty King Kong was still parked in front of the gate of the Underground Shelter. Looking around, Su Mo climbed up the slope of the Underground Shelter and came to the high ground above it.

He cleared out a small area, before summoning the storage space with a trace of reverence and anticipation. He took out the treasure chest that was wrapped in a layer of golden light.

This was the golden treasure chest that he obtained from killing the white-robed kobold. It was also the first golden treasure chest that Su Mo had ever seen, and the first known golden treasure chest in the world.

At this moment, staring at the treasure chest, Su Mo couldn’t help himself from chanting religiously, trying to garner a wave of luck from his earlier promotion to advanced gardener in the morning.

“Spirits of the sky and land, and ancestors of the Kobold race, today I bring the unfilial god, Oreo, to apologize to you!”

“Give me more good things, otherwise I can’t afford to raise Oreo!”

“Open!”

After finishing the chant, Su Mo squatted down quickly and opened the first golden treasure chest in his life as the sun jumped out of the clouds.

He lifted the lock, pulled out the lock cylinder, unlocked the big lock, and pushed open the chest.

Su Mo completed each step slowly to ensure that there would not be any disgraceful actions.

The golden chest was also very powerful. As Su Mo gradually opened a gap, a ray of light no less bright than the sun in the sky burst forth from the inside of the chest.

Firefly lights dared to outshine the moon for glory!

The treasure chest dared to compete against the bright sun!

Within a few seconds, Su Mo had pushed open the chest completely, and a rumbling sound seemed to echo over the horizon, and then resounded in his ears.

Countless rays of light exploded from the chest instantly but, despite the cascading sound, the snow on the ground did not even tremble even a little bit.

However, when the light disappeared, and he saw the four objects on the ground, Su Mo became immediately ecstatic.

“Psychic energy crystal! I knew it!”

“There’s another psychic energy crystal in this golden treasure chest!”

Su Mo could not identify the other three items without the help of the game panel. However, when it came to the most important treasure of the wasteland:

Psychic Energy Crystal!

Su Mo had never stopped dreaming about it.

Even using the system’s creation function, this thing could not be made. It could only be obtained from treasure chests, which is why it took so long for Su Mo to obtain a second piece.

“This time the psychic energy crystal can’t be used indiscriminately. It must be used in the most strategic place to maximize combat effectiveness!”

Psychic energy crystals could be used to open up psychic energy upgrade directions that were completely different from other directions. After paying survival points, a series of extraordinary effects could be achieved.

The more survival points paid, the more gains it would bring!

The chests always produced fine products.

After reaching the gold level, ordinary food and supplies would no longer be produced in the chest.

Like the four things that he obtained today, other than the psychic energy crystal, there was a key left on the ground, a pet egg, and an unpopular weapon shining with purple light.

Carefully placing the eye-catching crystal into the storage space, Su Mo looked at the three remaining items on the ground. With a thought, Su Mo simply used three disaster points to obtain the most detailed identification information regarding these three remaining items.

[Versatile Key (Excellent)]

[Description: It can open the “doors” and “levels” of any unowned shelter. The key image is just a visual representation and does not correspond to a particular locked door.]

[Number of remaining uses: 3/3]

...

[Unknown Pet Egg (Combat): Drip a drop of the player’s blood on the eggshell to incubate a pet with unknown combat abilities.]

...

[Three-pointed two-edged sword (Rare)]

[Description: A cold weapon made of rare alloys and high-energy materials. The weapon has high toughness and hardness ratings. Due to the addition of ??? material and ??? material, it possesses terrifying power beyond the scope of regular cold weapons.]

[Weight: 38-200kg]

[Special ability]:

[Adaptation: (Automatically adjusts its weight according to the strength of the host, but has upper and lower limits that cannot be exceeded).]

[Blessing: (While wielding the weapon, the strength and vigor of the user automatically increases by 20 kilograms. A special ability brought by ??? material.)]

[Sturdy: (When colliding with other objects that do not exceed the capacity of the material of the blade, it cannot be destroyed or damaged).]

“Aha, three-pointed two-edged sword?”

The effect of the versatile key was easily understood. When entering a shelter with no owner, it could be used to access locked and restricted locations.

As for the pet egg, Su Mo was even more familiar with it because Oreo came out of it.

However, the three-pointed two-edged sword had a distinguished background.

Speaking of this weapon, the first thing he thought of was the famous God Erlang, Yang Jian from myths and legends.

However, this weapon was used by God Erlang while fighting against the Monkey King to smash the mountain to save his mother. Against the golden staff Jingu Bang, they were both on par with each other. It was a first-class artifact.

In reality, it was something that would be a waste to abandon, but would not hold significant value either when facing the enemy.

In a certain martial arts movie on Earth, the shortcomings of the three-pointed two-edged sword were exposed. For attacking, it was not as good as a moonblade, for controlling it was not as good as a trident and, for stabbing, it was not as good as a spear.

“Forget it, I am not Yang Jian, so there’s no use in thinking too much about it anyway. I’ll just use it as a spear for my Su Family spear technique.”

Even if it was an excellent-quality cold weapon, it still did not deviate from the scope of conventional understanding.

Except for the additional strength brought by the question marks in the second ability, the other two were easily understood.

Su Mo tried to pick up the three-pointed two-edged sword on the ground and, as his arm exerted force, a green vein burst out visibly on his arm, and the weapon was successfully picked up.

At the same time, a warm current came from the weapon and passed through to his arm.

“Not bad, after adding 20kg of strength, the feeling of using the 38kg weight option of this weapon feels comfortable!”

In ancient times on Earth, it was naturally better when weapons were heavier.

The so-called battlefield combat was about large, forceful strikes, striving to kill the enemy in a single strike without getting caught in the enemy’s siege and numbers.

In modern times, as wars were not started easily, cold weapons gradually expanded to include more advanced techniques, striving to achieve the best results through different movements.

Inspired, while holding a three-pointed two-edged sword, Su Mo stood on the top of the mountain and heartily performed the complete set of the Su Family Spear Technique.

Echoing the sweeping motions, the terrifying weight of the weapon caused strong winds that whistled in the wake of each motion from time to time.

After finishing a set, feeling invigorated, Su Mo simply performed another set until sweat dripped from his forehead. Then he slowed down and stopped.

“Sure enough, it is a treasure. The adjustable weight option that goes up to 200kg is enough for me to use it for a long time and, even when exoskeleton armor is invented in the future, I can continue using it!”

The risk of close combat with cold weapons was extremely high, but this did not mean that Su Mo would give up on close combat.

In his wild imagination, if he piloted the Gundam while holding a weapon that weighed hundreds or thousands of kilograms in his hands to perform the Su Family Spear Technique, it would not matter if he faced a pseudo god or not; all would fall and easily be killed in his wake!

Oreo also rushed up to his side at this time, looking at the three-pointed two-edged sword in Su Mo’s hands, her eyes filled with doubts.

Then she shook her head again with optimism, leaving all her worries behind as she ran happily around Su Mo.

Su Mo was in a good mood and, after playing with Oreo for a while, he smiled and walked down the hill, the depression in his heart lifted.

The form of the wasteland had changed abruptly, but the living conditions of mankind were improving day by day.

With the impending welfare disaster, it was very likely that humans would not have to worry about food and water for a long time.

The development of actual advanced human technology could then slowly unfold after everyone’s basic necessities were met.

Taking advantage of the blazing sun and the clear sky, Su Mo did not stay idle. He drove Earth Tiger out, tied it firmly to the back of the excavator with a few ropes, and drove out.

The smooth icy and snowy surface did not pose any problems to the excavator, which pulled Earth Tiger from the front. The two vehicles soon arrived at the saltpeter mining camp.

Su Mo untied the ropes and, using the excavator, made quick work of the snow-covered saltpeter mine, filling Earth Tiger’s storage space and his own storage space with saltpeter ores.

It was four o’clock in the afternoon when the two vehicles, full of saltpeter ores, returned to the shelter.

“With these saltpeter ores in hand, I can resume the production of ammunition again!”
