My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

In terms of individual strength, a kobold warrior might not defeat a regular adult armed with a weapon.

Although making the kobold warriors stronger, being humanoid actually instead weakened the lethality of these fighters.

Losing the flexibility of landing on all fours and without the deadly jaw bite, the skinny kobold had neither strength nor speed, and could only take a beating.

Walking to the big pit, the kobold in the pit still waiting to be rescued looked at Su Mo with a dumbfounded expression.

It seemed to be asking, ‘Huh? Where’s my teammate? Did they sell me out?’

Unfortunately, Su Mo did not give the kobold that had fractured its bones during the fall any time to think. He simply took out his crossbow and shot the kobold’s forehead with an arrow.

Puff!

A small team of 12 was wiped out!

The two parties only started fighting about ten minutes ago.

Excluding the close combat with the kobold warrior, Su Mo easily eliminated this small team that had fallen behind with only 11 crossbow arrows.

The gap brought about by equipment and combat ideology could not simply be omitted by the number of people.

After putting away the crossbow and confirming that there were no others nearby, he took out the hook rope and nailed it to the ground. Pulling at the rope, Su Mo jumped into the big pit.

The kobolds might not be able to transport a cartful of saltpeter ore up, but for Su Mo, it was exceptionally easy.

First, he took out the burial bucket from the storage space to free up some space.

Next, he put his hand on the saltpeter mining cart. With a thought, the cartful of saltpeter ore began to disappear slowly, all of it incorporated into the storage space.

In just five or six seconds, all the saltpeter ore in that cart had disappeared.

In exchange, the storage space was full to the brim.

Putting some strength into both arms, Su Mo easily climbed out of the large pit by pulling the rope and began to clean up the battlefield.

First of all, retrieving the crossbow arrows to recycle was a must.

Two pristine-quality crossbow arrows were divine artifacts that he could not do without.

Just the terrifying silent attribute alone could play a surprisingly effective role in winning such ambush battles.

Carefully, he took out the watermelon knife, cut open the throat of the kobold mage, and pulled out two short and sturdy crossbow arrows from the bloody mess.

Seeing the bloodstains on the crossbow arrow, Su Mo frowned as he set it aside to let it drain slowly.

The crossbow arrows on the remaining kobolds were easy to handle. He just needed to stomp on the kobold’s body and pull the arrow out with some force.

After picking out one of the crossbow arrows that was slightly deformed and throwing it into the pit, the remaining eight could be reused.

“Not bad. For the price of one crossbow, the gain…”

“Let me see…”

“Three copper chests, one iron chest, and one wooden chest.”

“It seems that as my strength continues to improve, or with the passage of time, it has become more difficult to loot silver-quality chests from kobold mages?”

Su Mo shook his head, pondering the reasons as he gathered the chests.

If the former, it was still acceptable.

If the latter, he would suffer. As time went by, the original silver chest had turned into a wooden chest. Who could stand that?

Was this a trick in disguise to force people to kill monsters quickly?

“I’m Ma Huateng… ermm… number one paratrooper Reuben…”

“I’m willing to exchange 10 years of the kobold’s life for one lucky star!”

After whispering a few incantations to open the box, Su Mo touched the trashiest wooden box first.

Good things must be left to the end. Everyone understood that!

With a clatter, the wooden chest opened with Su Mo’s touch. It turned into a white light before the prompt sounded from the game panel.

[Record]: You opened the wooden treasure chest.

[Record]: You have gained the bull power strip (5m)*1

“Power strip? Not bad, quite useful.”

Seeing the disappearance of the wooden chest and the power strip that fell to the ground, Su Mo touched the back of his head with a trace of satisfaction on his face.

As long as he did not get any plastic items from the wooden treasure chest, it was a win!

Putting the power strip aside, he took the iron chest and continued to open it.

The light flashed and the game prompt sounded.

[Record]: Congratulations on opening the iron treasure chest.

[Record]: You have gained the Mengshui brand canned assorted fruits in syrup (388g)*1

[Record]: You have gained the Mengshui brand canned yellow peaches in syrup (408g)*1

“Holy moly, this is awesome! I opened two large tins of canned fruits at once! I’m rich!”

Seeing the canned fruits that fell to the ground because the storage space was filled, Su Mo quickly picked them up in distress.

The two cans were not small, and he was over the moon to have gotten it from the iron treasure chest.

A sealed canned food was a rare luxury in the doomsday world.

Regardless of its taste and flavor, simply the fact that it could replenish a large amount of vitamins needed by the human body was the best food reward he could get at present!

After looking at the miscellaneous knick-knacks piled up in the storage space, Su Mo could only take out a unit of iron bar with a slight twinge of heartache and put the cans in.

“Two cubic meters of space is still too little. I can’t do without the iron bar either. It’s really a troublesome choice.”

Sitting on the iron bar, Su Mo continued to open the chests. This time, for the three copper treasure chests, Su Mo chose to open them all at once.

[Record]: Congratulations on opening the copper treasure chest*3.

[Record]: Congratulations, you have gained Wuchang Daohuaxiang Rice (15kg)*1

[Record]: Congratulations, you have gained Fuling hot pickled mustard tuber (250g)*3

[Record]: Congratulations, you have gained resource duplication coupon (wood level)*3

[Record]: Congratulations, you have gained storage space expansion coupon (0.2m³, bound)*1

“Resource duplication coupon!”

“Storage space expansion coupon!”

Seeing the prompt on the game panel after the copper treasure chests disappeared, as well as the four pieces of glittering paper as big as a dollar note, Su Mo was unusually surprised.

“As expected, after using 100 disaster points for expansion, it will increase in the future. When it reaches 10 square meters, 102,400 survival points are needed. This means that even if I can get the first disaster points every time, I estimate it will be difficult to accumulate the points after more than a dozen disasters, not to mention others.”

“Now, it seems that even ordinary people can get this type of expansion coupon by opening up a treasure chest.”

With a long sigh of relief, Su Mo directly crushed the expansion coupon.

Along with the flashing light of the expansion coupon, the dark storage space was silently enlarged by 0.2m³, reaching 2.2m³.

“As for this resource duplication coupon…”

Picking up the coupon, Su Mo studied the detailed description on it.

Like the levels of a treasure chest, resource duplication coupons were divided into five levels: wood, iron, copper, silver, and gold.

The three resource duplication coupons that he had just obtained from the copper treasure chest could be used to duplicate resources in equal measures.

For example, now that Su Mo had gotten 15kg of rice from the treasure chest, he could spend one duplication coupon and a copy would appear next to it.

However, if it was not a resource item drawn from the treasure chest, or an item that had been unsealed, such as unpacking 15kg of rice and adding another 15kg of rice, the duplication coupon could not be used on it.

After figuring out this rule, Su Mo put away the three duplication coupons with a thought.

“Duplicating food… will be too wasteful. Besides, I have better replicas in my shelter.”

Thinking of the many objects in the shelter, Su Mo grinned. Then, he sucked all the items that fell to the ground into the storage space.

He stood up and surveyed the dead kobolds lying around.

Summoning the shovel, Su Mo began to pick up all the kobolds with the shovel and pushed them into the trap pit in the middle.

Although this kind of simple burial could not stop subsequent kobolds from tracking and discovery, it was sufficient for now.

It took about half an hour to bury all the kobolds and clean up the scene.

Su Mo quickened his pace toward the sentry tower of the kobolds.

“Since a team of them has died, let’s see if the kobolds will take turns coming after me!”
