My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 51: Reconstructing Level One Shelter

“The new design has separated the shelter into eight sections. You get one extra operations center if you compare it against Shen Yitian’s design.”

“Looks like the system understands me!”

Su Mo had a delighted expression on his face as he carefully gazed at the separated sections on the design plan.

“There might only be one television used for surveillance purposes in the current operations center, but I’ll definitely bring in more powerful items in the future. The shelter will be upgraded according to this plan when the time comes for upgrades!”

Su Mo checked things several more times and ensured there was nothing else to add before launching the game panel.

[Personal Shelter]

Level: lvl

Description: A shelter made entirely from stone. Exceptionally robust with good security, and it was unique in that it could keep out the moisture and retain warmth.

Space: 140㎡ (Height 4.2m)

Integrity: 100%

Facilities: iron stove, bed, Large Scale Vegetable Culture Medium, Psychic Energy Well Water Extractor, dining table…

Currently available permissions: reconfigure shelter’s current layout, auto-generate partition walls (one time use, please adjust with care)

After selecting the option for reconfiguring the shelter’s current layout, the page flickered before it arrived at an interface he had already seen before.

When Su Mo found the points function at the bottom corner, he clicked on it.

Right now, the first function that required payment in reconfiguring the shelter was, of course, to import the design plans.

It did not cost much. Only 15 points.

However, this could be considered a sky-high price by survivors who lived in a group setting.

After Su Mo used 3000 points to upgrade his storage space and another 54 points on random things, he realized he still had 278 points left. It was more than enough to pay for the costs of reconfiguring the shelter.

Upon the deduction of 15 points, light seemed to flow through the designs in his arms before they exploded into pieces in the base.

Then, the plan loaded in the game panel and showed all details regarding the plan and also its additional details.

When Su Mo tried out the preload function and realized he could drag items to their designated spots after planning them, he began utilizing that function.

The first action was to bury the wires in the slates. This task had to be accomplished by using the game panel or the system.

A short while later, Su Mo activated the transform function after all items had been classified and put away properly.

Heart pounding, Su Mo took another long look at the base which was now still flat ground. He did not feel a single ounce of reluctance in him.

New things would not come if the old ones did not part to make way!

A slight tremor reverberated from beneath the ground, making it feel as if a pair of invisible hands were caressing the base.

The kobold still sprawled across the floor looked around its surroundings in panic, seemingly not understanding such a sturdy base would be shaking wildly.

Then, something even more flabbergasting happened.

The stone steps at the shelter’s entrance melted into a puddle of crimson liquid before disappearing entirely from the shelter.

Bright sunlight shone into the shelter as the door opened automatically.

At the next moment, the entire shelter began sinking spontaneously and a passageway carved from stone appeared to connect the main door to the shelter.

It would be difficult for the sun to shine in through the stone passageway, but at the same time, the base had also become safer.

Inside the base, the daylit passageway that had originally been smack in the center began moving slowly toward the base’s upper right corner.

The vegetable culture medium that had been placed in the center also seemed to have the help of higher entities as it slowly rose and floated over to the light source at the upper right corner.

A partition made from stone rose from the ground and cemented itself in between the roof and the ground of the shelter, slowly becoming sturdier as time passed.

Various bits and bobs also began classifying themselves and floating toward their designated area. Similarly, walls also rose from the ground.

In an instant, the shelter, which had originally been built on flat ground, turned pitch-black.

However, at the same time, radical changes occurred to the shelter’s structure after the walls rose.

About 25 square feet of the originally spacious shelter had now been separated to become a living room.

The wooden table and stools that had been created before this was placed in the living room along with the tea set scavenged from the ruins.

With the help of the light, Su Mo felt his way through the dark to the wall at the side of the living room. When he pressed down with his fingers, a bright light shone from the bulb hanging on the living room ceiling, banishing the darkness that had been there before.

The kobold was in a corner of the living room, and Oreo was lying right beside it to keep an eye on it.

Oreo was curious about the massive changes that had occurred, but without Su Mo’s orders, the only thing it could do was stay put and pant loudly.

Su Mo took out the flashlight from his storage space and strode toward the other rooms.

He had planned for the area behind the living room to be his bedroom, and it was also the shelter’s master bedroom.

Right now, it seemed that although the shelter had seemed huge when it was all flat ground, the planning showed that it was actually pretty cramped.

Su Mo had only given himself enough space to put a bed and bedside table in his bedroom, while the two other bedrooms were only large enough to hold a bed. They would be expanded as deemed necessary in future expansions.

The warehouse was located on the right of the entrance. As you walked in through the doorless frame, you would first see the area where weapons were stored. Further in would be where amenities were stored while random bits and bobs would be stored at the very end.

Not only did his design method of connecting the three save space, but it also saved the trouble of running around searching for things when they were needed.

On the left of the entrance was a miniature operations center and energy center.

A miniature research center spanned across the bedroom and crop breeding room. (Please refer to the chapter for detailed pictures)

It took Su Mo two round trips before he familiarized himself with the base’s current structure.

Compared to the previous flatness, this structure made the base seem much smaller at a glance. However, it was much better at retaining warmth within the base.

The efficiency of retaining heat was much higher within a restricted space than the previous flat expanse.

Su Mo got a surprise when he opened the last door in the shelter.

It was a gently sloping tunnel about 10 meters long, just like the one at the back door. Within these ten meters, there was not only a door carved from stone on the very outside, but also another door in the middle.

Combined with the entrance door in the shelter, that made it a design sectioned into three parts.

This structure not only guaranteed they would not have any place to run to if enemies managed to break through the outermost door, but it also meant they could set traps in between these two doors that would destroy the enemy in one fell swoop.

They could even set up shooting ports and fire full blast once the enemy entered.

“If the previous base had a safety level of 5, I’m sure it’s upped to a 50 this time!”

Su Mo clicked his tongue in wonder.

The permissions that came along with the shelter’s upgrades were amazing as well. The previous shelter had been made from stone slabs but after this upgrade, all the partitions and accessories were made from stone, which made things much more convenient.

With the help of the flashlight, Su Mo managed to find the damaged incandescent light bulb he had brought back from the ruins.

He had fixed one before this and had another three right now. Additionally, these lightbulbs came with a switch, which was pretty handy.

He used six survival points to fix all three lightbulbs.

The first one was installed in his room to make doing things at night easier while the second one was installed above the section for amenities in the warehouse to provide light while searching for things.

Su Mo installed the last one in the miniature research center.

It was where the base’s technology tree would take place in the future.

After getting past this disaster, a lot of time would be needed to brainstorm ways in upgrading the base’s technology tree.

“That’s right. I still have a workbench that I never built. Now I’ve finally got a place to put it!”
