My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 464 - Return, A New Journey!



Chapter 464 Return, A New Journey!

When he was poor and penniless, Su Mo did not even dare to think about technologies like controlled nuclear fusion.

Then, when he suddenly realized that the path to this incredible technology was no longer distant, it almost felt like he was living in a different reality.

Things were happening too quickly, but at the same time progressing steadily! No one would be able to stay calm in the face of such progress. On the other hand, while it was important to take into account the development of science and technology, talent development was equally important.

The former was driven by the latter, and the latter was influenced by the former.

The two complemented each other greatly.

Thinking of the surprise that Lu Kuan and his team could bring him, Su Mo did not forget the breakfast he had carefully prepared.

The food substance mixed with psychic energy water fell from above into the glass box.

The slime began to wriggle about, madly and greedily absorbing the nutrients from the food substance.

Living creatures that consumed psychic energy water would undergo a long-term transformation process.

It was difficult to see results in the short-term.

However, relying on the system’s appraisal function, Su Mo was stunned to find out that Lu Kuan had recently lost 46 years of lifespan due to excessive brain activity, leaving him with only 612 years of lifespan. Yet, it miraculously started to rise, and finally stabilized at 660 years of lifespan and no longer changed.

This change was also felt clearly by Lu Kuan.

After Su Mo just closed the cover of the glass box and reconnected the interface between the glass box and the robot, Lu Kuan assumed control of the robot.

“The active stimulation provided by the psychic energy water to the slime also affects our brains.”

“I can feel that my brain is much more agile than before, and I can also operate the robot more adeptly.”

The brain could also be enhanced, which sounded like something straight out of a sci-fi movie.

However, considering the way their brains had parasitized the slime, Su Mo did not use his own pseudoscience to explain the magical effects of the psychic energy water.

Instead, he turned his head and shrugged. “Work hard. Perhaps we can go beyond enhancing your brain in the future. Maybe one day, you can even be resurrected with a human body once more!”

Robots were, at the end of the day, not human bodies and lacked many of its key senses and functions.

Lu Kuan might have been a little contemptuous of Su Mo’s words had they been said before today.

However, after discovering the prospect of controlled nuclear fusion, and actually sensing the changes in his brain, he was full of expectations.

“I believe that such a day will come.”

“Ha!”

Su Mo smiled and did not deny the possibility.

Lu Kuan’s change in mindset was something he had expected, and also something he wanted to see.

He had successfully launched a rocket and entered the God of the Ocean’s planet, dispelling the mental demons inside the hearts of Lu Kuan and the others.

However, their repeated failures and the worsening condition of humans on the wasteland had caused them to become restrained and cautious in their actions.

This trait, in the doomsday setting, was very good for self-preservation, but it was a fatal shortcoming for those pursuing scientific research and development.

In this situation, naturally, only by changing their mindsets could they recover the drive to give their all toward scientific research and development.

After the excitement passed from making those scientific discoveries, there was still a long way to go.

After breakfast, Su Mo did not remain idle, but continued to take out books to study and improve himself.

At present, in addition to Lu Kuan, there were eight top geniuses specializing in different fields in the glass box. Although these people were not as capable as Lu Kuan, they each had broken through the limitations of Earth’s human technology and successfully advanced their disciplines to the level of interstellar humans.

To ordinary people, they represented unimaginable geniuses of a generation.

After writing down the remaining questions from his self-study on a piece of paper, and after briefly communicating with Lu Kuan, the biologist Zhuo Junfan assumed control of the robot.

He was a man that had mastered 94% of the biological knowledge of the information age, achieving the upper limit of humans during that era.

As such, he had no problems answering Su Mo’s basic questions.

After completing his study of the basics, and receiving the most top-notch teaching, with Su Mo’s scientific research talent, his learning progress finally started to soar.

Regarding the subject of biology, the knowledge that needed to be mastered by graduate students had been fully learned by Su Mo in less than two hours, from eight o’clock to ten o’clock.

At this point, even Zhuo Junfan had to think for a few minutes before answering some of the questions he posed.

Of course, Zhuo Junfan did not know that, after high school, Su Mo had only been in contact with the subject of biology for five days.

The total duration of his study time during those five days was only about thirty hours.

Otherwise, his jaw would definitely drop in shock, amazed that there were such geniuses in the world!

Even so, as the two spent more time together, Zhuo Junfan gradually discovered Su Mo’s almost terrifying talent for learning. “Su Mo, your learning ability is terrifying. It has only been… um, five hours.”

“You can actually understand the complex biological chain reaction technology so thoroughly. If my tutor was still alive, I am sure that he would definitely take you under his wing as his representative disciple.” He felt an imaginary sensation of cold sweat on his robot head.

Looking at the curious and seemingly tireless Su Mo, Zhuo Junfan was amazed.

“You’re flattering me. I just happen to have an interest in biology. I may not make such rapid progress in other subjects!”

It was a form of comforting, but also somewhat of a blow.

Hearing the ‘lie’ that Su Mo had uttered casually, Zhuo Junfan pursed his mouth, and suddenly had an epiphany; let’s just not compare ourselves with others. Fortunately, after considering that everyone had taken refuge under Su Mo, the robot’s face displayed a smile that could not be concealed. “Su Mo, your research direction really shouldn’t be a problem on the wasteland.”

“Chain reactions and chemical reactions have an undeniable effect in the transmission of biological base pair information and neuron information processing. If we can make breakthroughs in this area, and then develop the corresponding signal transmission technology, we may be able to directly devise a method to remotely control biological armor. By then, as long as our connection…ermm, our WiFi, functions properly, we can directly explore, fight, and defend without fear of death or injury. Even our men won’t need to rely on this current sturdy pipeline connection and would be able to directly transmit our stream of consciousness via the WiFi frequency!”

Zhuo Junfan’s ability was really good considering the fact that he was able to guess the kind of technology that Su Mo wanted to achieve just by looking at his research direction.

When his purpose was revealed, Su Mo did not hide it, but admitted it directly. “With regard to signal transduction technology, I have a very good solution, so you don’t have to worry about that part. As long as we complete the biological research, we’ll be able to set up an 8G signal tower that can transmit over a range of 2,000 kilometers, under the right conditions. At that time, even if there is interference, we can ensure that there are no connection problems within a 300-kilometer radius.”

“Huh? 8G? What’s this about?”

Zhuo Junfan was specialized in the study of biology, and had not dabbled in communications.

Looking at the confused expression on his face, Su Mo remembered that a few hours ago, this same expression was on his face when he started learning biology.

Su Mo was delighted and laughed out loud.

However, the next second, Zhuo Junfan “disappeared” with a wicked smile.

In his place, Bai Yiqi, a scholar of communication and physics, “appeared”.

The smile on Su Mo’s face…froze!

‘Hmph, you can do whatever you want with knowledge, right?’

‘Just wait until I become an all-rounded scholar, then we’ll see if you dare to be so happy!

They poked fun at Su Mo, but still maintained a cordial atmosphere.

After a long while, upon realizing that he was not far from Hope One’s location, the excitement of returning home bubbled forth. In such a state, Su Mo could not bring himself to continue his studies.

He waved his hand at the void and put away the book.

Su Deben also assumed control of the robot, who was the real boss of the team.

“Su Mo, I heard what you talked about with Zhuo Junfan earlier. When the time comes, you have to give me a carrier first.” “This m*th*rf*ck*r has been trapped in a glass box every day and is beyond sick of it. If you give me a body and a hundred people, I promise you that within 50 kilometers, no, within 100 kilometers, no one can enter our defensive perimeter!”

These days, Lu Kuan and the others had hogged control of the robot.

Trapped in his own mind, Su Deben had time to spare to think about all sorts of things.

As soon as he assumed control, he laid down on the ground and started doing push-ups and burpees to relieve his pent-up energy. Su Mo was not surprised by his actions, but blinked his eyes with interest. He kept Su Deben’s promise just now in his heart.

‘He is capable of leading a huge expedition force.’

If Su Deben were to be appointed as captain of the guards, with a small number of troops, it would naturally be a waste of his talents.

With such talents, the best role to put him in was to oversee the military development and defense of the entire territory.

Relying on Su Deben’s words and deeds, there would definitely be more outstanding generals appearing in the future from his territory.

With these people, even if his territory kept expanding, Su Mo would not have to worry about the lack of talented leaders.

“Haha, Captain Su, don’t worry. This will naturally be arranged for you when the time comes.”

Su Deben got up from the ground. “Su Mo, don’t call me Captain Su. I am a few years older than you. In the future, in your base, if there are no outsiders, you can just call me Uncle Su. If there are outsiders around, I will call you Chief and you can just call me Old Su, so we won’t be violating the etiquette of respect, manners and rules”

Su Mo nodded solemnly. “Very well. As you wish!”

This was what Su Mo had wanted to talk about from the beginning. Including Su Deben, almost all the scientific research talents were older than Su Mo.

As a Huaxian who paid careful attention to etiquette, this subject, of rank and methods of address, should have been raised by Su Mo himself.

This was because it would be too harsh to disrespect their status, but also to allow them room to maneuver and negotiate the matter with him.

However, it had now been proposed by Su Deben on his behalf and passed on to others for unified implementation.

Su Deben had taken into account all the key points, and had come up with an appropriate solution.

“Uncle Su, we’re almost at my base camp. Get ready, let’s go home now!”

“Oh? Your base camp? I shall see for myself what your actual strength is then!!”

Through the headset, the OS sent a reminder that Hope One was within range.

Su Mo stood up. The two people looked at each other, and then both laughed.

It did not take long for Su Mo’s smile to freeze, just like when the previous communications specialist Bai Yiqi came out. When the huge Hope One came into view…

Su Deben’s reaction was as expected.

Like a scarecrow in the field, he stood motionless in front of the observation window for half an hour.

As Sun-chaser picked up speed, it came alongside Hope One. He then came back to his senses, made a swallowing motion, and said with ‘difficulty’, “Su Mo, don’t tell me that… This is the result of your three months of effort on this wasteland?”

Su Mo turned his head and smiled casually, “Three months? No, Uncle Su, to be precise, this ship has only been around for…”

“Well, about fifteen days!”
