My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! Chapter 52

Chapter 52 - : Sorry, I Can Do Anything I Want Because I Have A Workbench

Su Mo found the icon for constructing a workbench after he opened the creation page and scrolled to the bottom.

“Huh, why is the color of this workbench sky blue? Is there any difference between the colors?”

Confused, Su Mo looked at the materials required for creation.

[Workbench]: wood 0/12, beaker 0/1, simple clamp 0/1, simple work module 0/1, simple experiment module 0/1, simple welder, 0/1, cutting machine 0/1, iron 0/12, glass 0/2, circuit board 0/4, wires 0/2

The materials required a lot of confusing materials. Excluding the simple modules, it seemed there were a large number of materials that should not be on a workbench.

“Among the required materials, I still have some extra wood and iron. Thankfully I saved some up, or else the delivery fees would be crazy seeing how big and heavy these things are.”

As Su Mo scratched his chin, which was beginning to show some stubble, he began recalling the materials he still had at the base.

Two units of glass were required, and he still had some extra supplies.

He had only used a little bit of glass the last time he created a light channel. After experimentation, Su Mo found out he had enough to meet the creation requirements.

As for the beaker and clamps, they were items that would be produced alongside the workbench, which meant he did not need to go looking for them.

The only remaining thing was a circuit board. After looking around in the utility room, Su Mo found a damaged circuit board he had scavenged from shelter number two.

It had been an urgent situation then, and he had just picked up any of those he could see that were in slightly better condition.

Either way, he had still managed to pick up five of them.

Su Mo decided to spend eight survival points and select four damaged circuit boards to repair.

There were still a lot of wires left even after paving them in the shelter. He had initially wanted to use them during expansion, but they had turned out to be useful now.

“Now, the only things left include the work module, experiment module, welder, and cutting machine.”

Those four items were large. After giving it some thought, Su Mo decided to search for them on the World Channel.

Rather than waiting to try his luck at the secret Regional Channel before disaster struck, he might as well spend a few points on delivery so that he could continue substantiating his combat abilities as quickly as possible.

Now was not the time to wait for discounts.

Once more people found the designs for the workbench, the modules were sure to go up in price.

[Su Mo: Ahem, sorry for the interruption. Please give me the price for a simple work module, experiment module, welder, and cutting machine.]

He had just finished speaking when the previously serene World Channel seemed to explode like an atomic bomb!

To fit every person into the World Channel, the game would functionally omit most information, which also made it much harder for everyone to communicate and converge in the World Channel.

After all, no human mind could read several billion messages as they flashed by at once.

Despite that, Su Mo could still observe the messages in the chatbox flying by in real-time.

“I just got off the plane at the wasteland. I have a PhD and a monthly income worth millions. I would like to ask in advance if the Almighty Su is seeking lab members. I’m very hardworking!”

“Can the person above me shut up? I’ll give you a number and you’ll get into the car immediately! You have five seconds to develop a spacecraft and travel down to the base.”

“I haven’t had any milk tea during this autumnal season yet, could I trouble the Almighty Su to gift a young girl a cup of autumnal psychic energy water~ I don’t mind any kind~”

“I have a simple work module and am willing to exchange it for 10L of psychic energy water!”

[Su Mo: What outrageous demands. F*ck off if you’re here to be a nuisance, don’t make me go over and take care of you.]

Su Mo’s mindfulness had improved greatly after his week at the wasteland.

He had never dared say such things back on Earth, but they rolled off his tongue here now.

At the same time, Su Mo had decided to become a shameless token dog.

He had the power of the buyer’s market on his side during these transactions. There might be a lot of people who had these supplies, but only Su Mo could purchase them and pay for the game’s atrocious shipping fee now.

When he began threatening them, the numbers of personal requests and nonsense in the trading market immediately decreased.

He sieved through the items and began listing them in order from cheapest to most expensive.

“D*mn, this person is selling a premium work module for only 300 ml of psychic energy water. Of course I’m getting this.”

“A welder that only costs 50ml? Don’t think I can call myself a Huaxia person if I don’t buy it right now!”

“A premium experiment module and 2kg worth of baguette for only 180ml?”

“Nice. So many people are advancing dauntlessly, they’re even braver than Boruto!”

Su Mo was stunned as he saw the trade requests on the trading panel grow more and more ridiculous.

Since when had things become so cheap?

Looks like everyone was ready to give it their all when they could not see the prices other people had set. They would lower their prices as much as possible just for a sip of psychic energy water.

After only spending 940ml psychic energy water and 24 disaster survival points for delivery fees, Su Mo received the following items:

Premium work module*1, premium experiment module*1, simple welder*1, simple cutting machine*1, screws*35.

Invertible, warm light bedroom lamp*1, 3km radius rechargeable walkie-talkie*2, one electric blanket, one roll of transparent tape, and a pair of binoculars with 5x zoom.

2kg worth of baguettes, 1 box of apple juice, one pack of potato chips, and one bag of fried peanuts.

He had merely ladled out a small portion of water to get so many items in return. Su Mo might be a calm person, but he could feel his heart racing too.

“So, this is how wonderful it feels to be a con man… What a pity I wasn’t a businessman in my past life, what a waste of my talents!”

When a small portion of the people in the World Chat learned that Su Mo had already entered the electric society, they included electronics that could be rarely found as their add-ons in their offers.

These things were comparably difficult to produce electrical energy from. In other words, it was worth less than scrap metal to people who were experiencing a resource shortage.

However, these were amazing deals to Su Mo!

It was 20 degrees below freezing outside. Wouldn’t it be amazing if he could plug in the electric blanket and burrow into his sheets?

As for food, they were either something that would invoke thirst after consumption, or they could act as weapons if they were baguettes.

However, this was not a problem for Su Mo.

After cataloging everything and putting them away, he felt a wondrous feeling of happiness washing over him.

He felt excited as he brought all the items he needed for creation over to one place.

“Feels like I’m exceptionally lucky.”

“This is the first time I’ve seen the design for a workbench, and these people don’t even know how much it’s worth. That’s why I managed to get it so easily.”

Su Mo sighed in contentment before he began working.

Without a noise, a workbench roughly the size of a large desk back on Earth appeared in the pitch-black unplaced space.

As he shifted his mind, the heavy bench appeared placed next to a wall in the research center with a boom.

“This…”

The workbench had required such ordinary materials to craft, but it caused Su Mo to be shocked when it appeared.

There had initially only been one beaker, but it had transformed into a set of large glass instruments after being mixed with the workbench’s construction materials.

“Distillation… Extraction… Fractionation…”

Refining… Cutting… Welding”

After he had fiddled around with the glass instruments for a while, a strange message was sent to him.

Su Mo shut his eyes and used between three to five seconds to familiarize himself with the ways of using the workbench.

Kneeling on the floor, Su Mo exerted a little strength and easily pulled out a robotic arm about half the length of a human.

A seemingly complicated mess of wires was attached to the robotic arm. After trying to use it a couple of times.

Su Mo returned to the power supply room and cut off the electricity before he lowered his head and connected the workbench’s wires to the shelter’s main electrical supply.

When he resumed power to the workbench, a humming, buzzing sound rang out.

The heavy workbench began conducting a self-check. After the robotic arm got connected to power, it began shaking before finally securing itself on the side of the workbench.

After bringing a stool to the workbench, Su Mo got an idea and used the system to check the workbench’s specific properties.

As disaster was about to strike, a group of survivors transmigrated into a desolated world and were challenged to a game of survival. From terrifying acid rains, to endless natural disasters, the heavens burn while the earth scorches, radiation is rampant, and nobody is spared from the dangers of this hellscape. The only way one survives is by building a shelter and slowly upgrading it in hopes of surviving another day. Luckily, Su Mo awoke a Doomsday Survival System that allowed him to infinitely level up and upgrade his shelter! The main shelter wooden door can be upgraded into a metal door, which in turn upgrades into a composite gate; the wooden spears can be upgraded into bronze spears, which eventually upgrade all the way into electromagnetic spears... While everyone struggled to survive, Su Mo was fully loaded, and well equipped to dominate the post-apocalyptic world. "While some of us are lighting oil lamps, he's been using refrigerators!" "The walls in his shelter alone are tens of meters thick, it's the safest place on this planet." "Before I die, I wish to spend one day in his shelter..."
