My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

It was time to return.

The sun was high and the sea was calm.

There was a faint smell of the salty sea mixed with a fishy smell that lingered on the nose. A soft breeze blew by and refreshed everyone.

Su Mo stared at the familiar captain’s quarters. He slowly twisted the earphones that were placed beside the pillow under him and put them next to his ear.

“Pay attention, Connie, there’s still 3 minutes till the next wave of tsunami. Let all the foreign races know to be ready as it’s going to get bumpy again, over!

“Connie, copy, Connie, copy! Over!

“Woof woof awoo woof!

“Hey, what’s wrong with Sister Oreo? The tsunami is coming soon, why can’t this door be opened? If the water seeps in and wets the operating system then it’s not going to be good.

“Chief Mate’s Manual Page 24 Row 3, Chief Mate’s Manual Page 29 Row 6… Hey, what are you doing? I’m the first mate, you have to listen to me!

“Hey, how dare you bite me? When I get back, I must report to the master.

“Big and Small Spark, come quickly and help me hold her down, she’s insane!”

It was a familiar sound; it was still Moore’s silly and goofiness that made people want to laugh.

After listening for a few seconds, as Oreo’s whining grew louder and louder, Su Mo lightly coughed and interrupted the noise coming from the earphones.

Hearing the cough, the Bluetooth earphones suddenly went quiet, before it was followed with cheers so loud it could scare people.

From the cheers, Su Mo could hear Moore’s happy roar, the squeaks from Big and Small Spark transforming, Connie’s ecstasy, and even the celebrations from the foreign races behind Connie. Su Mo could hear everything very clearly.

“I’m back!” he declared!

…

That noon, Su Mo made a lot of calls.

Chen Shen, Zhong Qingsu, and Qi Qin were still holding their positions with the villagers in Hope Village…

Lu Yongyi and Shen Ke were shaking on the sea to prevent the disaster from progressing…

The chief coach that traded his technique at the start had not been in contact with him for a really long time. Brother Feng Zi was on a skiff to resist the disasters, while Sun Xian who was floating up and down on the sea by his tires…

Everyone that received Su Mo’s call was filled with joy.

Through these calls, Su Mo got information about what happened after he left. At the same time, he also got information about the general situation of the disaster from all the scattered places in Wasteland’s marine.

In Wasteland, the current time was March 4th, twelve o’clock noon.

According to this time, there should be a whole 60 days more before the distant tsunami disaster.

However, now the tsunami was one step ahead and had hit the entire marine.

Additionally, there was one more piece of extremely terrible news.

The foreign marine races who were supposed to arrive 4 days later had arrived ahead of time!

In other words, humanity’s war…

Had begun!

Su Mo did not have the option to slowly examine what the message could have represented, nor could he go to the World Channel to continue collecting information. He ensured that the current situation was not irreparable.

Playing with the pen in his hand, Su Mo dialed Lu Yongyi’s voice chat again.

Unlike the last time when he asked about Tundra One, this time Su Mo asked about the current Wasteland’s situation based on official statistics.

“At this moment, there are not many points of war on the entire marine, as most of the foreign marine races, foreign terrestrial races, and humans have gathered in one spot because if one party were to make a move, it would lead to all three parties getting involved. And in combat situations like this, our current attitude should be to observe because according to what has been reported from the combat side, we humans’ victory rate is roughly 16%.

“I know that this victory rate is very low, but for us ordinary humans, if we were to go against any one party, the victory rate would not exceed 30%. It’s all thanks to your title and the aid from this disaster that we are able to get to where we are today.”

Su Mo frowned. “If that’s the case, should we continue carrying out our attack plan?”

Lu Yongyi said, “This attack plan must be carried out regardless of how many casualties we have, whether we have reached our designated position, and no matter how low our victory rate is. The last day, in five days, will also be when the tsunami’s power is at its highest. The combat must be carried out then. Otherwise, after the tsunami passes, and our basic disk has been shattered, we won’t have the chance to turn the disk around and humanity will be wiped out in the Wasteland.

“And that’s dependent on you right now!”

“Oh?” Su Mo curiously asked in a soft tone when he heard that it had something to do with him.

At the other end of the line, Lu Yongyi had no intention of hiding anything. He straightforwardly said, “The last time us humans were struggling during the second blizzard, on your side, when that… monster appeared, it immediately ended the blizzard.

“This shows that as long as we have the ability to create a higher-level disaster, this disaster brought on by the tsunami that affects all of the Wasteland’s marine and the ordinary humans will stop immediately.

“Even if we set off a higher-level disaster, it would be a temporary solution. Right now the only choice left for us humans is…

This option!”

Lu Yongyi’s voice grew lower as he spoke the last few sentences to prevent others from hearing what kind of mood he was in or the opinion he had when he made this decision.

As a powerful and important member of the organization, he had been fortunate enough to be able to attend the meeting to decide the direction the humans would take. He had gotten to see those in the higher echelons of the human race make the decision.

However, at that very moment, when Su Mo was being spoken to…

He did not mix in any of his emotions, nor did he carry any contraband. Just like an essay written by a primary school student, things were as dry as a bone.

He knew that Su Mo had once turned around a disaster that could have torn humanity in half.

He was gambling on that during this disaster. Even if the chances of this possibility were infinitely close to zero according to the higher echelons, Su Mo might actually have a solution for it.

The higher echelon’s policymakers were not idiots, nor were they inexperienced.

However, at this moment, this was all they could do.

It was not about intelligence or tricks.

This was a real disaster, and they were just ordinary people too. They were just ordinary people that had survived 64 days in the Wastelands!

A while later.

Su Mo solemnly said, “I know. There are still five more days till the peak of the disaster. Before that, your side must be steady and have as minimal friction with the foreign races as possible.”

Without the pressure of the future of humanity weighing on them, the topic at hand seemed lighter.

Lu Yongyi, who was opposite him, also seemed to be relieved. There was a bit of calmness even in the ‘forcefulness’ of his words

“Don’t worry about that. Under our organization’s control, we’re using the channels that are connected in the regions. Nearly ten large ships and over forty small sand ships have gathered near Tundra One. Between the ships, we have followed the example from the Chibi War and used chains to securely tie all the ships together. As long as it’s not the last tsunami, there’s basically no danger of it overturning.

“Looking at the current trend, there are already more and more ships getting in contact with us. After a few more days, our troops will have grown more than tenfold. In the event that there really are foreign races coming, we will be qualified to go to war with them at sea.

“Under this awful weather, the foreign marine races are at a disadvantage. If we really go to war, with the weapons and ammunition you provided before, as well as our elite soldiers, we should have a good chance at winning!”

Hearing Lu Yongyi’s slightly confident voice, the weight on Su Mo’s heart lightened up. After thinking about it, Su Mo continued, “In that case, I still have some ammunition on my side. Wait for me and Shen Ke to meet. You can consider this as me… lending it to you for the time being.”

“Oh? Then what about you?”, Lu Yongyi was overjoyed when he heard that there would be ammunition support, but he quickly became worried.

“Me?

“Haha, don’t worry, I don’t need these things anymore!”

Just like a Riddler, after a hearty laugh, Su Mo hung up the phone.

Afterward, he sat in the captain’s quarters and waited there until the tsunami was over. Su Mo quickly walked down the stairs to the warehouse where the ammunition was stored.

Relying on the convenience of market trading, as he faced Tundra One’s side, Su Mo traded ten machine guns, twenty rifles, and fifty pistols.

In terms of bullets, there were twenty thousand rounds of machine-gun bullets, twenty thousand rounds of rifle bullets, and twenty thousand rounds of pistol bullets.

These weapons and ammunition had to be paid in halves due to the courier fee. After the transaction, all the stock Su Mo had brought onto the ship had basically been emptied.

As for Tundra One, going to a small war was not an issue, let alone going to war against tens of thousands of people.

Su Mo laughed when he saw Shen Ke send a concerned greeting again. Without explanation, he changed the page.

The friends page disappeared and was replaced by the…

Upgraded shelter module!

Staring at the prompt condition that had always been a streak of red before, the countless number of times the ruins had been entered finally turned into a gratifying green.

Su Mo did not wait any longer and clicked on the upgrade button without hesitation.

Whoa!

In an instant, the Disaster Points that were needed for the upgrade were deducted and the upgrade button that could have been clicked also turned back t its familiar gray. It indicated that the upgrade was in progress.

During the upgrades in the past, violent shaking would have been felt. It was different this time because they were not inside the shelter, so it was as if the upgrade did not happen.

However, the upgrade progress bar below was devotedly carrying out its mission, slowly inching higher and higher.

35%…

60%…

72%…

86%…

…

Unlike Level 4’s upgrade which had only taken a few minutes, Level 5’s upgrade progress bar was not full even after twenty minutes had passed.

For the shelter itself, if Levels 1-4 were novice stages, then all the humans at this stage belonged to the Novice Village stage.

Then, the promotion of Level 5 indicated that the shelter had ascended to a new level.

From here on, the shelter would enter the advanced stage!

Whether it was the modular blueprint materials that had been the reward for Level 5 function’s Red Packet that fell from the sky or unlocking the rights to use many of the restricted level blueprints.

As long as it was able to develop for a period of time, the underground shelter would completely distance itself from the Wasteland’s ordinary humans and enter a new era even if it did not rely on the system!

[Congratulations Player Su Mo, your shelter has successfully upgraded to Level 5]

Hearing the familiar beep that finally rang out, he did not rush to preview the conditions of the Level 6 shelter. Instead, Su Mo faced the Void and gently waved and a blueprint flew out.

It was a rare-level design for the small-medium thermal weapon laser manufacturing machine.

The blueprint could only be used and studied when 500 points were spent on it to upgrade to a Level 5 shelter. That would finally lift its mysterious veil.

However, at this moment, Su Mo was not in a rush to study it. He simply followed the warehouse’s passage and returned all the way back to the captain’s quarters.

He sat at the front of the table and watched the surging waves outside and the tsunami wave that would occasionally rise. As Su Mo’s thoughts wandered, a prompt sounded again.
