My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 589 - Mini Climbing Vehicle, Preparations for the First Trip!

It was impossible to change his decision.

After listening to Su Mo's long-term plan and a long series of intense persuasion, the people who initially held firm objections gradually began to be coaxed by Su Mo's various reasonings and began to waver.

When it came to expeditions, the most experienced person in the entire territory was their territory lord.

After all, being able to travel tens of thousands of kilometers on a single boat, and going back and forth through unfamiliar foreign territories, as if it were his own home…

Su Mo was the only person capable of doing such things in the entire territory!

After careful analysis, the best time to enter the mountain was when the snow would stop a few days later.

In the future, no matter what kind of impending disasters might happen, it would definitely not be as easy as the current situation in the territory.

After thoroughly ensuring the conditions, they began to delegate the necessary tasks.

Everyone accepted their duties and left in a hurry to make preparations and arrange the people following for the mission, some resources, strategic guarantees, and other complicated travel preparations.

Su Mo also did not sit still and began to walk back to the shelter.

When he entered, he saw Su Chan wiping a layer of various precision instruments with a sackcloth and Oreo, who accompanied her, holding a bucket in his mouth.

Snowy days were not just cold but also very damp.

The prefabricated house had heating systems and could maintain a humidity level of around 50%. Still, the entire stone structure of the shelter had caused the indoor humidity to exceed 75% after snowing for one day and two nights.

At this point, even the dehumidification of an air conditioner turned on all day was ineffective.

"Brother, don't come in yet. Let me mop the floor first!"

Su Chan pointed toward the reclining chair that had been prepared by the door and pointed to the wet ground.

A thought flashed in his mind, and he stretched with a smile. Then, he sat on the reclining chair by the door.

'Looks like it's time to make some changes to the shelter…'

The stone material was indeed the safest structure in a chaotic environment.

The stone wall was several meters thick. Even if it were attacked with explosives, it would not collapse easily and stand until Su Mo found a counterattack opportunity.

However, the stone structure had become inefficient.

In terms of safety, there were hundreds of militiamen guarding the village, and the shelter could change its materials to something more substantial and rigid in structure.

In terms of comfort, they could use moisture-wicking materials to create a more comfortable living environment.

Moreover, they had an external power supply, so many large facilities such as the generator room, oil production room, and planting room could be moved outside to free up more space.

'When I passed the ocean disaster before, I was given a game reward to upgrade the shelter level. I have not received it yet. I will have to wait until the disaster is over, then I can upgrade it to Level 6. Then, use this disaster to acquire a chance for an upgrade to Level 7!

'The Level 6 reward was a regular reconstruction. Hopefully, I can get some other things at Level 7!'

The higher the reward level, the greater the effect.

Thinking about it for a moment, Su Mo slapped his head and suddenly remembered something about the upgrades.

'Oops! How could I forget to distribute the reward for our civilization upgrade?! Seriously!'

After the monument's completion, the requirements for upgrading the civilization to the Primitive Age were achieved.

At the time, Su Mo also planned to hand out the rewards to a few candidates during the evening meeting.

However, he did not expect that the villagers would have such a big reaction after the announcement of the various reforms. After the announcement, there was not enough time to issue the rewards.

He kept forgetting repeatedly and only recalled the matter when he thought of upgrading the shelter.

'Well, it doesn't matter. The reward can also be given out for the excellent performance during the disaster resistance. It wouldn't be a big deal!'

There were more upgrades, which increased the things that had to be considered.

After Su Mo reflected on some things, he realized there would be a time when the human resources of the territory would be exhausted.

Further down the journey, if he did not learn to do calculations himself, he would inevitably face problems that would be left out, leading to unimaginable consequences.

'When the winter disaster is over, my parents will be transmigrating over to the wasteland, and then I will directly hand over the management of the territory to them.

'I'll just be the territory lord in name and focus on how to fight the disasters, building a strong territory as well as… conquering other foreign territories!'

Su Mo made up his mind.

After realizing he had forgotten many important things because of his busy schedule, Su Mo closed his eyes and rested. Countless thoughts and strategies to fill in the gaps began to surface in his mind.

The first thing was territorial construction.

The foundation was the most important. It was the root and building block of their territory.

The future development would go much smoother if this step was done well!

The current construction goal was to improve the living and various manufacturing factories as the main development.

The prefabricated house could temporarily solve the accommodation problems and provide everyone with accommodation, but it was not a long-term solution.

The current situation seemed like Su Mo was an employer, and the villagers below were all workers.

Everyone merely obeyed their employer's orders.

They worked for the territory but did not belong to the territory.

In the future, to develop the village, they would have to go beyond the civilization age so that everyone had an independent residence and could form a proper social structure.

The addition of a large number of recruits would allow them to perfect their evolution.

After this framework was set up, the second thing to do next was naturally to develop the technology tree and increase the civilization level.

There was already an electricity supply that would allow them to make adjustments in their scientific research direction.

From the development of energy, the direction they should tackle would gradually transition to production, such as machinery, manufacturing, and combat forces.

Not just to attack other foreign territories but to at least be able to protect themselves.

The level of civilization after the Primitive Age was the Bronze Age.

Unlike before, the Bronze Age was a crucial stage in the development of human culture in archaeology.

Reaching this age represented that human beings had mastered the preliminary bronze refining methods and made great progress in agriculture and handicrafts.

People began to learn to identify the role of ores and apply them to different fields of development.

Handmade manufacturing began to flourish, and all kinds of exquisite handmade products bloomed in this era.

The weather, geography, social structure, and agriculture gradually improved.

'I hope the upgrade conditions in the Bronze Age won't be too harsh. Otherwise, it will only become more and more difficult to transition to the later eras!'

After making calculations about the internal development directions to focus on, Su Mo quickly recollected himself.

The internal affairs were essential, but the external affairs were just as important.

There was no news about the next natural disaster, so Su Mo could only make a rough prediction.

According to the notes of Magoo that he collected, the disaster after this one was likely to be extreme heat.

The average temperature of the doomsday wasteland was between 25 to 32 degrees during the day and 15 to 20 degrees at night.

There would be a terrifying rise in temperature when that time came.

It would be 50 degrees during the day and 30 degrees at night.

Moreover, this was only the threat of temperature. The snow melting would also cause floods due to the rise in temperature, which would make the situation even more troublesome!

'We have to make preparation in advance!'

After thinking about it, seeing that there was still a lot of stagnant water on the first floor, Su Mo stood up to help clean up.

Su Mo was busy until nine in the morning.

He returned to the third floor and took another nap until twelve at noon.

Afterward, he checked through the trending videos from the disaster resistance channel.

He also enjoyed a sumptuous lunch that was delivered by the canteen.

After the drowsiness had completely disappeared and he was full from the meal, he returned to the third floor, found a cart, and continued working.

The information about the child guard version of the mini-all-terrain climbing car obtained before was still piled up in the shelter.

It did not matter whether they could produce this thing right away. Su Mo believed there would be no problems if he left it to Ai Jianfeng and the group to study.

After the materials were put away and covered with a moisture-proof cloth, he went to Ai Jianfeng's workshop.

"What do you think? Can you build it?"

There was a lot of information, and it would take a long time to go through everything.

Like Su Mo, Ai Jianfeng only read the general outline of the first book and then gave a concrete answer.

"I don't think so. Beide the technicality of this building this thing, the materials needed for the exterior start from a Level 6 alloy we had just researched.

"We exhausted the strength of thousands of people, and we relied on the waterfall to store energy, yet we could only reach Level 5."

"What if the strength and rigidity of the outer structure are reduced and replaced with low-grade materials?" asked Su Mo.

Ai Jianfeng tilted his head, thought for a while, then shook his head.

"According to the introduction of this all-terrain climbing car's manufacturing manual, it mainly needs to meet three things.

"First, it needs strong materials. The material outside the car body is made of high-strength alloys, which can offset a large part of the impact from collisions, falling, and accidents. It can absorb most of the kinetic energy from impact, which is how it prevents falling accidents when climbing.

"Second, its internal buffer material is very solid, and its weight also acts as protection. It can ensure that even if it descends from a 100-meter-high cliff, the structure of the car body will still remain stable and won't cause severe damage to the people inside."

"Third, the logical climbing prediction system of the vehicle is the easiest for us to build. The manual provides a complete set of program structures and code. As long as we copy it exactly, we can make build it without a problem." After speaking, Ai Jianfeng's expression was intrigued.

"This program is very interesting. It can collect real-time data and achieve the highest level of driving alertness. In addition, it can learn and adapt. The more harsh environments it has gone through, the closer to perfection the program structure will become and prevent accidents when in use.

"I've only a little understanding of computers, so I will have to get Su Wei to come and have a look at it."

After two batches of resurrection, only Bai Yiqi and Su Wei had not gotten the chance, so they continued to stay in the virtual reality.

However, the two were not bothered at all.

Bai Yiqi specialized in quantum physics and nuclear physics. Coming out to the physical world would just equal an extra mouth to feed. It was better to continue his research in virtual reality.

Meanwhile, Su Wei's specialty was computer engineering.

It was a pity that there was no basic program structure set up in the territory. The speed of coding in the outside world was not half as fast as in virtual reality, and it was useless for her to come out.

Su Mo looked for the manual for the scanning process and uploaded the materials.

Soon, Su Mo received an invitation notification from virtual reality.

"So fast?"

He raised his eyebrows because of the unexpected efficiency. Su Mo immediately agreed and entered a studio that belonged to Su Wei and Ai Jianfeng in the virtual reality.

The overall decoration was toned in a sky blue color which was very refreshing.

There were eight screens linked together, and all kinds of complicated codes danced across the screens.

Outside the window, the sun was shining and the birds chirped by the lake.

There was even a lazy kitten lying on the sofa.

Compared with the outside world's hardships, the power-injected virtual reality environment was much more comfortable.

'Apart from the inability to have physical touch, living here would actually not be a bad idea.'

"How is it? Isn't the code awesome?"

Ai Jianfeng was no stranger to the place. He sat down on the sofa and held on to the kitten.

"It's very powerful, and it can pass as an artificial intelligence prototype!"

"Give me some time to research, and it might be possible to apply it to our other vehicles for semi-intelligent assisted driving."

She glanced at Su Mo.

Su Wei waved at the room shyly, and the surroundings began to collapse and change.

After a few seconds…

The studio completely disappeared and was replaced by an open space with an ordinary car.

The shape of the car was almost indistinguishable from vehicles on earth.

The only difference was that the wheels below it were not fully inflated tires but colloids that were flat and almost sticking to the ground.

"I'll simulate the climbing mode so you can see its effect!"

There was ample computing power, so it would be a complete waste not to put it to use.

Immediately, with the appearance of a rocky mountain in the open space, the simulated car began to drive upwards.

It was like a spider stuck to the ground.

At first, the small bumps almost made the car topple upside down and fall from above.

However, halfway through the progress, the car's body became increasingly stable, and the traveling speed also increased.

"The tire?"

Seeing that Su Mo was in doubt, Su Wei immediately stood up and explained.

"Uncle Ai may not have understood, but these tires are the essence. The body is not filled with the gas we imagined, but it's composed of thousands of small robots, unified and controlled by the logical climbing prediction system.

"According to the different terrain, the robots inside will perform various set actions to adjust the center of gravity and grip of the vehicle in time, so that the climbing function can be performed precisely.

"The internal program will become more intelligent and complete as it travels through more roads. It will develop the ability to predict, and the robots will be able to respond in advance so that traveling will become much more stable!"

'Seriously?'

After listening to the explanation, Su Mo turned his head to look at Ai Jianfeng, and sure enough, he saw a trace of confusion in his eyes.

It was indeed worthy of being called a product of the medium-distance interstellar age.

The technological mechanism was much higher than the existing research and development capabilities, even if it was just a child guard version toy vehicle.

The material for the outer structure could be reduced.

The interior fillings could also be reduced.

However, the tire was the soul of the vehicle and a must-have.

It was not difficult to create an outer shell for the car.

However, the small robots inside had high precision requirements, and the basin's manufacturing industry must reach a certain level before it could be completed according to the requirements.

Until then, there was no other way.

Unless…

"Could we make the tires bigger?"

Su Wei was stunned and nodded immediately.

"It's just a simulation now, and we can naturally redesign the finished product size in the future."

She replied and waved her hands in the air.

The car tires in front of them immediately tripled in size, supporting the entire structure.

The climbing process was as smooth as before.

"Could we reduce the robots inside the tire even if we increase the tire size?"

Su Wei understood his intentions. "Shelter leader, are you saying we should use bigger tires and fewer robots to reduce the demand?"

Su Mo nodded.

When it came to small robots, there were really no robots in the basin.

However, they had quite a lot of bigger ones.

They had 36 Fei Fei Semi-intelligent Robots that they had acquired from the ruins previously. Excluding the 20 that were upgraded and used during the boat upgrade, there were still 16 inside the shelter.

They could make minor upgrades to match the requirements for the climbing car.

When the time came, they could use the robot body that previously housed the scientific research scholars, combined with a Level 5 alloy to build the frame of the climbing car.

Then, they could build a mini version of the vehicle to explore the snow-covered mountains.

'Perhaps…

'It would not be too difficult?'
