My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 362 - Breaking Even, Incredible Unseen Bounty



Su Mo let the anchor down and stood atop Hope One that floated in the middle of the ocean as if it were a god of war.

He wore a full set of armor, the majestic three-pointed two-edged sword in his hand as he stared right at the mixed group of foreign race soldiers lining up ahead.

Directly ahead of him, Connie—now awake—had already started mobilizing working teams.

Within half an hour, these foreign race workers who were "hardworking and willing to endure hardships" had once again salvaged over 200 wooden chests. Added to the previous acquisition of 790, they fell just slightly short of a thousand.

As for the wooden chests further away, they had either floated too far off or were hidden in the ashes of the creatures hit by gunfire. Trying to find them would not only be a waste of time, but it would also be a waste of human and material resources!

Thus, after seeing that efficiency was declining, Su Mo ordered the collecting to stop.

He had Moore bring all the foreign races that had surrendered onto Hope One.

"Stand properly and follow me one by one in reciting this oath. Leave your clan!

"With the gods as witnesses, all insincere non-believers shall be destroyed, and all pious believers will be added to our almighty O Clan!"

As she gestured with the "pretentious" staff in her hand, a wind stronger than the one from before surfaced from Connie's body from time to time, stirring up the dust on the deck.

Right now, her voice was loud and clear. There was no sign of the weakness displayed earlier after using up all her energy.

It was not just Su Mo who had benefited from this battle.

Connie had reaped great rewards too!

However, at this moment, Su Mo had no time to ask Connie how many levels she had advanced. Instead, his gaze was on the foreign races below who seemed to be staring downward, but who were actually…

Staring at the system panel that was slowly emerging from the void!

Sure enough, the color had changed!

It was still the color-changing daily system announcement that would only be prompted when there were over 10, 000 survival points!

[Doomsday Calendar Month 2 Day 25]

[You did not sleep all night and were very excited on the first day at sea as you had discovered your way forward (survival points +500)]

[You uncovered the previous secrets of the wasteland war timeline, which gave you a clearer understanding of civilization and warfare, but you thought it was still not enough (survival points +300)]

[Your first excellent-rated disguise (survival points +100)]

[You successfully completed what could be considered a master-level performance in front of a million foreign races of various levels (survival points +2000)]

[You implemented a plan that had very few loopholes and successfully deceived the other party, achieving your purpose (survival points +500)]

[You completed your first sea battle and killed an opponent far less powerful than yourself without a scratch (survival points +100)]

[In your attempt to go under the sea, you developed a new understanding of ancient martial arts (survival points +300)]

[You started the first "10 thousand people" war between humans and the foreign races and won a complete victory. It was a clean win, and there was no damage, your small team included (survival points +20000)]

[You obtained a treasure chest worth a massive amount, which was very helpful for your development in the Doomsday wasteland (survival points +2000)]

[You successfully conquered a foreign race army whose level was in the "tens". On this wasteland, you created a new relationship model between humans and foreign races (survival points +3000)]

[Milestone - Rapidfire: In thirty seconds, the cumulative number of attacks small scale and above reached 30 (survival points +500)]

[Milestone - Ocean Novice: Ocean voyage exceeded 500km (survival points +100)]

[Milestone - Foreign Race Nemesis: You successfully won a battle above medium-scale in the battle against the foreign races. Furthermore, you won 10 times in a row without a single loss, and your name spread far and wide (survival points +1000)]

[Milestone - Butcher (One): Cumulatively killed over 10 thousand creatures (survival points +3000)]

[Milestone - Treasure Chest Hunter (One): Accumulated over a thousand treasure chests (survival points +1000)]

[During the evaluation of survival points upon scanning the host's living environment, 221 survival points were obtained today.]

Final calculation—survival points +34621

Remaining survival points—48741

"It's back, that familiar feeling is finally back!

"In just a few more days, my survival points will return to 50 thousand, and I won't have to live in such a frantic state anymore!"

Staring at the panel that was only two thousand short of 50 thousand survival points, Su Mo clenched his fists tightly. He was so excited that he wanted to immediately go and track down a foreign race to fight.

What did 50 thousand points mean?

Hope One was a ship created by the accumulation of manpower, material resources, and wealth, yet this ship that could be considered invincible at sea had only used up a minuscule amount of points!

Now, after just a single battle, Su Mo had already earned back all the points he had spent.

In the future, as long as Hope One was winning battles, it would be a stable profit!

Based on this calculation, Hope One was basically an investment with the lowest risk and highest returns in the wasteland!

As for the other end of things…

"Ever since I set sail, the daily survival points evaluation has dropped way too much. Back in the underground shelter, the stable daily points distribution was fixed at around 600, but now it's actually dropped right back to 200.

"Looks like it's time for a small makeover in terms of Hope One's comfort levels!"

Losing 400 points every day seemed very small when one had a base of 50 thousand, but in reality, it added up to a painful loss!

If Su Mo did not change this, he would be earning 3000 points less than he used to in a week.

This was no longer just a small number.

If used for upgrades, excluding other things, it would be absolutely no problem to increase the completion of Hope One by 0.5%!

While in deep thought, he watched Connie on the deck below as she finished the clan induction ceremony for the various soldiers and foreign races, the image of a biscuit appearing in the center of everyone's foreheads afterward. 

Reassured, Su Mo nodded and went straight back inside, waving to Connie on the way to indicate that she could proceed with the previously-discussed plan.

For these ordinary foreign race soldiers, there was absolutely no need to waste time on them.

Their addition to Hope One could only be of limited help to its production and firepower.

This was especially so since most of these foreign race soldiers could not even speak the human language. 

Even if Su Mo stood at the top of Hope One and delivered a passionate, hour-long speech, these foreign races—who could not understand it—would not be moved at all.

On the contrary, Su Mo's behavior of "decentralization" right before they joined, allowing the foreign races to interact with the other foreign races, would, in fact, encourage them to join faster.

"OS, pull up the anchor and prepare to go into long-distance travel mode. Locate the second navigation point." 

Going down the stairs of the conference room on the second floor, Su Mo went down to the bridge and sat in the captain's seat. He placed his hands on the dashboard and went through the authorization procedure.

The long-distance travel mode was a new steering mode that Su Mo had especially added for this voyage.

When it was initiated, after every four hours of traveling at cruising speed, the OS would automatically increase Hope One's speed to the maximum possible, maintaining it for an hour before once again dropping back down to cruising speed in order to cool the engine down and let it breathe.

After traveling for 11 hours, the OS would automatically halt the engine, allowing the ship to drift along freely with the waves

On the way, the fire control radar would start scanning frequencies within 30 kilometers. Using the scan, the OS would then plan the best possible route to avoid all creatures that might show up.

This setup could demonstrate the capability of the matter conversion engine to perfection.

At the same time, it would not push the engine too hard and cause any problems.

Based on this speed, it would only take about 9 days before Hope One and Tundra One, now on the other end of the ocean…

Successfully met together!

[Captain Su Mo, Hope One's long-distance travel mode has already been activated, and the second navigation point has been automatically located. Wishing you a pleasant journey!]

In terms of how it actually felt, Hope One while moving and Hope One while stationary on the water felt exactly the same.

After exiting the bridge and coming out onto the deck to confirm that the ship was moving, Su Mo hurriedly went down to the kitchen to prepare everyone's meals for the next day.

After winning such an exciting battle and gaining such a huge volume of supplies, Su Mo did not skimp on this meal.

Stewed beef!

The freshest vegetables, stir-fried!

Moore's favorite cola, and the milk that Oreo liked.

The red wine that would make Big Spark and Little Spark cluck excitedly when they drank it as well as Connie's favorite, the small green cans of Tsingtao beer!

Su Mo picked out all the everyday "luxury" items from the inventory and set them on the table.

However, he then received news on his earphones that the few of them were busy, and they requested for Su Mo to eat first.

Su Mo was stunned and let out a silent laugh.

Alright!

Another piece of good news!

In this one battle, the Little Four had already gradually undergone some indescribable changes in their thinking after such a long period of psychic energy water nourishment.

Perhaps the changes were minuscule, but they were just like the butterfly effect.

These changes were entirely sufficient to set them up for a high point in the future!

In the past, once Su Mo gave the order to come and eat, no matter what they were doing, they would drop everything unconditionally and…

Get to the dining table to start eating!

According to the rules of the game, whether it was Oreo or Moore, or Big Spark or Little Spark, their mindsets were one hundred percent restricted by the game.

They could not disobey the orders of their master, Su Mo, for any reason at all.

This was the highest level of authority that the game gave to all the players. It was directly embedded into the mindsets of every pet.

However, now Su Mo saw some hope in leveraging this setting!

Thinking back on all the little things that happened in the days that he had spent with the Little Four, Su Mo felt happy recalling these times even though he was eating alone.

Putting the remaining hot food into the pot to keep warm, Su Mo slipped into the warehouse without disturbing anyone, much like an erratic ghost.

It was unlike the last time when there had not been enough space to contain all the unboxed supplies he had obtained

This time, Hope One still had a few thousand tons of carrying capacity. Even if a large hulk emerged from the treasure box, Hope One could still accommodate them without any problem!

"These thousand and more wooden treasure chests mostly contain living supplies once they're opened. At present, there's too much inventory on Hope One, so if I unboxed them, they would just be left there anyway. It's better to keep them in their treasure chests for now.

"When the time comes, if the treasure chests can truly be put in storage for a long time, then when the next Secret Realm Trading opens, bringing them to sell in the trading market might be a good idea.

"Let's start with the iron treasure chests then!"

He looked at the flickering dark glow of the iron treasure chests that had been considered precious in the past, but were now was piled in the corner like Chinese cabbages. 

Su Mo rubbed his hands together and hurried forward excitedly!
