The number of treasure chests had been calculated, but the specific division and distribution of the treasure chests still required a strict procedural process.
Regarding this, Su Mo had no issues.
After all, the disasters had been suspended for over 30 days. Considering that he still had to find the God of the Ocean and fight with the game, he was not in a hurry to set off for the New World.
After sending off all the captains, it was already bright outside; around six o’clock in the morning.
Standing at the bow of the ship, one could see the survivors on the raft ferries, who had already started cooking in their pots, and the smoke from their cooking mixed into the morning breeze.
Needless to say, the survivors had gotten arrogant.
However, their arrogance was not without reason.
After all, the humans had won, and it had been easier than any survivor could have ever hoped and better than everyone’s best case scenario!
They laughed brightly, and Su Mo had a smile on his face.
‘Walking over to the living quarters below the deck, for the first time, Su Mo started properly cooking for the first time since setting out to sail!
Fresh beef and mutton, check!
Good seasonings, check!
Even the water source had been replaced with the psychic energy water that had been upgraded twice, which he had never used for cooking previously!
Su Mo did not choose to make overly complicated dishes despite having high quality ingredients.
Stewed beef brisket with potatoes, braised mutton, stir-fried shredded potatoes, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, cabbage and tofu soup.
These five dishes were easy to make and delicious!
They were Su Mo’s mother’s specialty and the family’s favorites.
It was something he had been familiar with for years and could do without too much thought.
‘As soon as the fire started, the aroma from the cooking spread out continuously, which was extremely tempting.
‘When the aroma started wafting out, Su Chan, who was still playing with Moore, ran down immediately.
Smelling the aroma of the juicy stewed beef brisket in the pot, and then relishing the scent of the cabbage tofu soup, made her bite her tongue.
Su Chan started to tear up!
“Brother!!!”
“Ahhh, what you’re eating…isn’t this too good?”
“Are you sure you are here in the wasteland to survive? Are you here on vacation… No, you are here to be pretentious!”
Almighty Su’s life was very ordinary.
Ordinary beyond the imagination of any wasteland survivor.

‘When he was in the basin area, the cooks of Hope Village would change their dishes and methods of cooking daily, satisfying his cravings.
He did not have to worry about what he would eat tomorrow or the day after.
As such, for other survivors on the wasteland who were still struggling to survive, the impact of such a scene was simply terrifying.
Su Chan, who had suffered for a month at the Tundra Shelter, was triggered!
Triggered for a good reason!
Of course, it was her appetite that was ‘triggered’!
“Brother, you are my dearest brother. This is the last mouthful, I promise! No more after this one last mouthful!”
Eleven minutes had passed since the start of the meal, and the food in front of Su Chan had already been piled up into a hill!
This scene of her eating stunned even Moore, who was beside him, and his usual appetite shrunk unconsciously.
No one could refuse the temptation of psychic energy water, especially after the second upgrade!
It was the first time that he had used it out to cook, and even Su Mo himself could feel the undisguised ‘desire’ within his body, which was even more evident for Su Chan.
“Relax, take your time and eat slowly. Brother will cook for you every day in the days to come!”
Standing up, he took out a bottle of chilled coke from the refrigerator next to him and leaned into the chair, while looking at her dotingly and speaking in a lazy tone.
Quiet days like these were indeed rare.
The purpose of hard work was to ensure a better tomorrow.
Being able to cook a meal for the family and watch them eat with satisfaction also gave him a sense of accomplishment that was no less than obtaining good stuff from a treasure chest.
He waited until everyone had finished eating and, seeing that Su Chan volunteered to help Moore wash the dishes together, he smiled, got up and went back to the captain’s quarters.
Su Chan did not explain how she acquired the ability to communicate with animals.
Then again, Su Mo did not bother about this too much.
It was not necessary to endlessly pursue a question just for the sake of knowing every single detail.
Just like the secrets of the expeditionary army in 1999, if you kept thinking about it and asking questions, without sufficient evidence and data, you would only torture yourself mentally trying to figure things out.
He would rather go with the flow, follow up courageously, and head straight to the point and enjoy the harvest therefrom.
After staring at the clock on the wall until it finally struck eight o’clock, Su Mo focused his thoughts, and the system panel automatically appeared.
However, the long-awaited daily system announcements did not appear immediately.
On the system panel, Su Mo received mail for the first time; a letter icon that flashed with pale green light!
‘Hmm?
‘For me?”
Out of curiosity, Su Mo focused his mind and tapped on the icon.
[Host Su Mo, congratulations! This is a congratulatory letter from the system.]
[If you are seeing this letter, it means that you have reached another level.]
[Ima sense, you may not have realized that you have gradually exceeded the category of an ‘ordinary person’, but growth always happens silently, right?)
[You came, you saw and you conquered. Your name is engraved into the minds of every human being on the wasteland, and you become the ‘emblem’ of the human race. Your name resounds like a gong in the enemies’ worlds. You have become that powerful person that you never dared to dream about
before.]
[Now you are no longer limited to simply surviving or living better. You may be looking forward to peace, stability, strength, or hope… for the future but, anyhow, your ‘appetite’ has increased! ]
[You already possess a burning desire, you already have ideas in your mind, you are full of strength, and there are countless fists supporting you from behind. It’s time to make a choice. I believe that this choice will not be difficult for you!]
[Please check out today’s daily system announcements and tell me your answer!]
The contents of the letter were not long, only a few hundred words, and it took Su Mo less than ten seconds to scan through the document.
“Hah, I haven’t summed things up yet myself, but here you are doing it for me!”
After seeing the last sentence written by the system and thinking about it, Su Mo was not too surprised. He raised his hand and tapped on the ‘save’ button and closed the screen.
After that, the long-lost daily system announcements finally appeared with a golden light!
(Doomsday Calendar Month 3, Day 9]
[You discovered the terrifying consequences of the Superpower Suppressant, which has you worried. Fortunately, it will not erupt immediately (Survival points +500)]
[You succeeded in making a plan to coordinate all human beings. In the face of a catastrophe, it played an undeniable role (Survival points +1000)]
{Your name was recited by more than 10 million people. They need you, and they expect you to stand forth (Survival points +500)]
{Your righteous anger is overflowing, and your heart is screaming out: Those who work for the greater good should not freeze to death in the wind and snow; those who pave the way for freedom should not be trapped in thorns. You stood forth and ignited the flame of hope (Survival points +20000)]
{Your name was recited by more than two billion people, you are a ‘god’ in their eyes (Survival points +30000)]
[You gained a huge amount of ‘wealth’ and obtained a bumper harvest (Survival points +5000)]
[You successfully defeated a dimensional-grade enemy but, due to the use of the system’s power, the amount of survival points gained has been reduced (Survival points +50000)]
[Scanning host’s survival environment. Survival points evaluation in progress. 461 survival points gained today. ]
Final settlement: Survival points +107461
Remaining survival points: 107461
[It has been detected that the current survival points balance exceeds 100,000 points, and the host has fulfilled the hidden condition in advance*1 and obtained the right to select the update route.]
[You have ignited a raging flame amidst the dark night. You tore apart the ugliness within the darkness. No evil can come near you and no injustice can stand before you!]
[The most important thing is that your clan has handed over its fate to you!]
[Moving forward, you have opened up a second route in advance. Please select one of the following choices.]
[1. Select the established path to move forward. All functions of the system will remain unchanged, and the 100,000-point derivative function will be automatically updated after your selection. After the update is completed, it will not affect the use of any of the host’s subsequent functions.]
[2. If you choose to select the second route in advance, the system’s functions will be greatly changed and new functions will be derived and updated in advance.]
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm{Note: This route would originally only be unlocked when the host reached 1 billion survival points. All other functions except the upgrade function will remain locked if this route is selected until the host’s survival points balance reaches the required amount to unlock them.]
[Note: By choosing this path, the upgrade function will derive new uses, and the daily system announcement points will also be changed accordingly.]
[Note: The keywords pertaining to this upgrade are race, territory, resources, and technology.]
[Note: There is no chance to revert the upgrade after making your selection, so please choose carefully.]
The messages poured out like a waterfall.
The harvest of 100,000 points not only covered all his previous expenses, but even earned him a surplus of tens of thousands of points.
However, he was not ecstatic.
After scanning through the reward entries one by one and seeing the selection choices underneath the daily system announcements, Su Mo was immediately stunned.
He suddenly understood the sentence in the letter from the system, “I believe that this choice will not be difficult for you”.
“Well, I do have to be cautious.’
‘But my blood is boiling frantically in my veins right now!”
‘Sealed creation function? That’s nothing!”
The cost of this function was very exaggerated anyway. Unless the system rewards increased by several times, it was unusable for the smaller items and unaffordable for the larger items!
The training ground function was still rather useful, but compared with the function that was about to be updated and upgraded soon, the difference in their usefulness was beyond huge!
In his previous plans, Su Mo had set some small goals for himself.
‘Over the next five years, earn 1 million survival points on the wasteland.’
Yet now, looking at the billion-level function that could be activated with just a press of a button, Su Mo had no reason to refuse and no reason to hesitate!
“I choose the second route upgrade and activate the billion-level function!”
After confirming his choice, the system panel disappeared, and a new line of text appeared.
[Host Su Mo, the system update will start in 24 hours, and the update duration is 36 hours. Please arrange and manage your time accordingly.]
Unlike the game, every function of the system, including the update timing and duration, was very considerate of his situation.
“Very good!”
“It knows that I’m about to fight the old dog that is the game, and delayed the upgrade, right?”
“Nice job!”
With 100,000 survival points in reserve, Su Mo held no fear in his heart for the means of the game.
‘In the face of absolute power…’
‘If it’s a dragon, coil it!”
‘If it’s a tiger, force it to lay down!”
‘Game, your man Su Mo is right here!”
“I choose to receive the reward!”
