My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

At present, the shelter had weathered three disasters in total. Su Mo had ranked first during two livestreams, so the count for those two would be multiplied by two. After factoring that in, the number of disasters he had weathered through would be five.

Previously, in the ruins of time, he had used Magoo’s core. With that, he had discovered the number of disasters needed to upgrade the shelter.

The current underground shelter required a disaster count of three to upgrade to Lvl 3, and a disaster count of five to upgrade to Lvl 4. It was just the right amount!

If he could also make it into the top ten during the next disaster, he could achieve a disaster count of seven and be able to upgrade his shelter to Lvl 5.

“It’s not too late. This is just right. I’ll start upgrading the shelter now!”

After waking up the four little ones, who were deeply asleep, Su Mo looked at Moore, who immediately lay down to sleep after arriving at the first floor. He smiled and summoned the game panel.

On the upgrade page, the conditions, including the above-ground and underground building requirements, were all satisfied due to the bug he had learned from the construction of Magoo’s shelter.

Below each condition, the upgrade button emitted a golden glow, just like in kryptonite web games. It was practically shouting, “Come and click on me if you dare!”

After repeatedly confirming that there would be no other requirements, Su Mo naturally did not stop there, and quickly tapped on the upgrade button.

1000 Disaster Points were instantly deducted. The next second, the familiar earthshaking and mountain moving vibrations commenced.

Wow!

Wow!

Soil floating in the air began to fall down continuously as the earth shook. The Underground Shelter was like a sleeping god that had woken up again. The “heartbeat” of the Underground Shelter gradually grew stronger.

The ground, where the four little one were lying down, undulated repeatedly like soft cotton candy.

“Mmm… Mmmm, this feels so comfortable!”

As if hugging the constantly vibrating ground beneath him, Moore, who was sound asleep, adjusted himself into a more comfortable sleeping position. He felt that he would experience no danger while Su Mo was around.

Even the watchful Oreo, after being shaken awake, fell into a deep sleep as soon as she saw that Su Mo was around.

Big Spark and Small Spark were both calm. Shaking to this degree was nothing for the chickens. They did not even bother to open their eyes.

“Y’all trust me so much. Are you really not afraid that I will sell you all out?”

Feeling a little dizzy due to the shaking, Su Mo simply sat on the ground, leaning on Moore’s side. He calmly waited for the upgrade to finish.

For the Underground Shelter, each upgrade was a new beginning.

Compared to the trailer depicting the God of the Ocean’s awakening, the upgrade of the shelter seemed to better reflect the experience of the gods’ resurrection more accurately.

He felt as if the shelter, built purely of stone, had somehow come to life at this moment.

Late in the night, Su Mo waited quietly.

After waiting about ten minutes, as the armored core of the Underground Shelter appeared, a ray of light shone on it. All the shaking abruptly stopped and the upgrade interface also lit up, emitting a powerful ray of yellow light.

Lvl 3 Shelter…

It was completed!

Compared to the previous level, where the shelter had changed drastically, the Lvl 3 upgrade seemed mediocre before the rebuilding function activated.

Except for an extra new feature – Sanctuary, there were no major changes in the overall attributes.

Meanwhile, at the bottom of the page, the conditions needed to upgrade to Lvl 4 were displayed.

[Underground Shelter Lvl 4 Upgrade Preview]

[First Condition: The main shelter must have weathered through more than 5 disasters and the shelter’s durability must not be lower than 50% at the end of the last disaster. (If the player enters the global top 10 rankings, the disaster count automatically increases by an additional 1 count) (Achieved).]

[Second Condition: The number of one-star resources within the main shelter reaches one and the number of half-star resources reaches one (Achieved).]

[Third Condition: The underground part of the shelter will have to achieve a security assessment score of 15 before the shelter can be upgraded (Current: 328; Achieved).]

[Fourth Condition: The above-ground part of the shelter will have to achieve a security assessment score of 30 before the shelter can be upgraded (Current: 227; Achieved).]

[Fifth Condition: The shelter needs to have a growth potential item in order to upgrade (Current: Workbench, Mini Motor-pumped Oil Well, Psychic Energy Water Well, Small-medium Thermal Weapon Laser Manufacturing Machine, Large Scale Vegetable Culture Medium, Furnace).]

[Sixth Condition: Pay 2000 Disaster Points to upgrade (2000/11012).]

[New Feature Preview: Remote Repair (When the shelter encounters external damage, the game panel will alert the player to the shelter’s current durability status. Within a certain range, the player can provide materials and Disaster Points to recover the durability of the shelter. The lower the durability, the larger the amount of resources required for recovery).]

[New Feature Preview: Solid (The player can choose one object in his shelter and bind it to the shelter’s door. Before the durability of the item reaches zero, and when the durability is higher than 50%, the door will be invincible by default and cannot be damaged by any external force).]

[New Feature Preview: Rebuilding +1]

“Hehe, I’ve satisfied all the conditions for an upgrade to Level 4. This is the benefit of being ahead of everyone. As long as you have enough Disaster Points, you can upgrade your shelter without giving it any thought!”

The green completion mark at the end of all the Level 4 Shelter upgrade conditions was a testament to Su Mo’s hard work.

Without his hard work in the past, he would have found the conditions tricky at first glance.

Not to mention how hard it was to get two thousand points in today’s environment.

The fact that one one-star resource and one half-star resource was needed alone would be difficult for 99.9% of the people in this wasteland world.

Perhaps it was possible if someone was really lucky, and had their starting point close to resource points of previous batches of players.

Most people would have to live on the wasteland for half a year at least, or even a year, before they could fulfil all the conditions.

As for the security assessment score mentioned in the conditions, Su Mo understood how the score was calculated after clicking on the scoring rules provided by the system and reading through them.

“If this score is required again in the future, maybe I can try and see if I can use a loophole!”

When the score was calculated, each rifle in the Underground Shelter’s weapon warehouse amounted to a point. The upper limit for that was a full 50 points.

Su Mo owned many explosive packs too. Each explosive pack amounted to a full 5 points, and the upper limit was 100 points.

However, the bulk of the score did not come from that. The old TV that could be used to monitor the outside world actually accounted for a full 100 points.

The alloy gate of the first floor garage accounted for about 50 points.

He found a loophole wherein, if the points for either the above-ground part or the underground part of the shelter were insufficient, he could move things above-ground or underground to satisfy both requirements.

Su Mo had already checked the new features of the Lvl 4 Shelter in advance, as early as when he had fused Magoo’s shelter core in the ruins of time.

At this time, the rules were no surprise to him at all. After giving it some thought, the Lvl 4 upgrade started as well.

Like the previous upgrade, this upgrade was not as shocking.

After about twenty minutes of shaking, the upgrade was over and the whole shelter once again returned to its usual calm state.

At the same time, the Lvl 5 shelter upgrade preview—which was a small milestone—finally popped up. After a brief glance at the various conditions, Su Mo was instantly taken aback.

[Underground Shelter Lvl 5 Upgrade Preview]

[First Condition: The main shelter must have weathered through more than 7 disasters, and the shelter durability must not be lower than 50% at the end of the last disaster. (If the player enters the global top 10 rankings, the disaster count automatically increases by an additional 1 count) (5/7).]

[Second Condition: After reaching Lvl 4, the number of enemies killed that belong to other races must exceed 500 (0/500).]

[Third Condition: The player’s overall physique score must be over 50 (Current: 42).]

[Fourth Condition: The main shelter must possess at least one transcendental blessing, and the level of the blessing cannot be lower than Lvl 1.]

[Fifth Condition: The player needs to enter the ruins more than five times and the ruins cannot be lower than Grade 1 (3/5).]

[Sixth Condition: Pay 3000 Disaster Points to upgrade the shelter (3000/9012).]

[New Feature Preview: Red Packet Out of Nowhere (Player will randomly obtain a modular item blueprint and several kinds of materials needed to construct the item.)]

[New Feature Preview: Reconstruction]

“Whoa…”

“No wonder Magoo’s shelter only managed to be upgraded to Lvl 5 after surviving a dozen disasters. It only gets more difficult from now on!”

This was his first time seeing the various requirements of the Lvl 5 upgrade, as well as the new functions after the upgrade. Even if Su Mo was composed, he could not help but inwardly shake.

Through these conditions as well as functions, Su Mo finally figured out some of the questions he had about the Deep-sea Shelter.

“Magoo should’ve gotten the oil well from the Lvl 5 red packet function, which also explains why he had something so nice when he was so passive.”

“And the player’s overall physique score actually has to reach 50 points. I’m still a full eight points away from that!”

Compared to the various soft requirements for Lvl 4, the requirements for Lvl 5 onward were extremely perverted and difficult.

Su Mo could even bench press 100 kg with no problem with his current physique.

He could even deadlift 220 kg.

However, he was still eight points short of meeting the Lvl 5 upgrade requirements.

“If not for the welfare disaster, regular people wouldn’t even be able to eat enough for a long time. How would they even be able to develop the physique necessary to upgrade their shelter? No wonder Magoo only upgraded his to Lvl 5 even after over a year!”

“But since the upgrade conditions of the shelter involves the physique of the human body, then further milestones might require 70 points, or even 100 points!”

Upgrading the shelter was a difficult and long process.

At the thought of various difficult conditions he would have to face in the future, Su Mo could only keep all the requirements in mind and close the game panel decisively.

“It won’t take long. As long as I wait until the basin ruins open up again, I’ll only need to enter the ruins once more after that.”

“It’s no longer like the past now. The disasters are becoming more frequent again. As long as I can find any ruins at sea, enter it, and exit immediately, the condition can be satisfied immediately.”

Su Mo calmed down. He decided to make no changes to his shelter before the teleportation to the new continent.

He only needed to wait till the next morning, choose a good spot, and create a cellar for the food. That was the last of the preparations for him.

“After waiting for so long, the blueprint design of this Destroyer is finally ready to use!”

He thought about it, and looked at the lavender-colored Destroyer blueprint design in his hands. Su Mo focused mentally, and a thousand Disaster Points were spent. At the same time, a memory fragment forcefully entered his mind!
