My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! Chapter 520

Chapter 520 - Territory Properties! The “Little Blessed Land!”

An extravagant dinner feast had greatly satisfied the villagers’ cravings for meat.

The sky had dimmed, and the cold temperature had dropped to minus zero, with coldness and humidity filling the air.

However, everyone was filled with passion as they took their seats, burning with excitement.

The exchange of conversation could be heard throughout, and the chilly temperature could not be felt at all.

Then, as everyone was seated, the dishes were served!

The flatbread was baked crispy yet tough.

The stewed beef and potatoes had a combination of meaty and black pepper aromas.

Spicy tiger skin that was pickled in white wine had a hint of sweetness and sourness.

Not to forget the garlic cloves that had been cultivated ever since on the ship.

Several side dishes and small pickles were also served. The fragrance from the food was extremely satisfactory.

The basin had already improved their meals and had been able to feed themselves well. Still, even Su Mo could not contain himself as he wiped away the sweat from his forehead and gulped down his saliva because of the spicy fragrance that spread throughout the room.

The food that was served to the top leaders of the domain exchange the Freedom City was pig food compared to the current food.

Not to mention in terms of color or taste, just comparing the aesthetics of the food, it was lacking compared to the food served in the basin!

“Hey, where’s Qi Qin and Pei Shao? Why aren’t they here yet?”

“Here! I’m coming!”

Pei Shao and Qi Qin finally arrived with two boxes of green sticks right as Chen Shen’s question had finished.

They set it on the table, and before they started, the atmosphere of the whole scene suddenly intensified!

With 15 people per table and a total of 1405 people in the basin, excluding those on duty, there were more than eighty tables!

Su Mo sat in the center as the other tables were set around him. The whole setup looked extremely grand.

“Territory lord, how about a few words?”

It was the Huaxia roots embedded in him.

Chen Shen would feel a little unsettled if no words were shared before such a big feast.

However, as everyone had guessed, Su Mo’s voice was heard before Chen Shen could sit down.

“What’s with all this nonsense? This is a meal, don’t treat it like a meeting!

“Whatever nonsense it is, we should have our food first!

“Enough of this, enough! I’ll pick up my chopsticks first. Everyone dig in!”

Su Mo picked up his chopsticks and glanced at the villagers below, full of anticipation.

He picked up a potato under everyone’s gaze and put it into his mouth, chewing it carefully.

The stew was flowing out from the potato, and its soft texture combined with the meaty aroma.

Su Mo comfortably closed his eyes for a moment.

His actions were like a commander firing the first shot, making the villagers below excited instantly.

Immediately, chopsticks and spoons started moving on the tables.

In the empty wasteland, there was only the satisfying sound of people chewing food.

The feast started at ten minutes past seven till eight-thirty in the night, and almost all the stewed meat was finished.

Everyone dispersed from the feast reluctantly.

Some went to rest, and some went to get water while others did the laundry.

It was free time, and most people had private time to settle their personal affairs.

The one thing in common for everyone was that they returned to the prefabricated house just a few minutes before nine o’clock.

“Hey, what’s with them?”

Within a few minutes, the lively village was instantly quiet.

Su Mo could not help wondering about the weird situation.

“Oh, right! Territory Lord, you wouldn’t know since you haven’t been around the last few days. They’re waiting for the lucky bag!

“It’s always happy hour for us every day around this time. Some of them have won big prizes from it, making us all envious!”

The moment the lucky bag was brought up, the leaders who were chatting and discussing their knowledge and experience regarding their area of management suddenly became excited.

“Territory Lord, you must be unaware that there are plenty of lucky people in the basin. Two days ago, right? Two days ago, someone received a radio from the lucky bag.”

“Only a radio? Someone even received two whole boxes of oranges. I was shocked by his luck!”

“Food can only last for a short period of time. I’m optimistic about the few people who received books. They’ll definitely become more valuable in the future.”

“I wonder what I’ll get from the lucky bag today! The past two days, I either got face masks or lotions. I’ve been keeping up with it!”

“Haha! I only received some rubbish a few days ago. Yesterday was an eye-opener for me when I received a big pack of coffee. It’ll last me a year or two if I drink it slowly.”

Everyone exchanged a few words back and forth with their eyes lit up as soon as the lucky bag rewards were mentioned.

It was evident that after the reform into privatization, the management felt some slight pity in their hearts but they were extremely honest in their body language.

Their identities were first as individuals of the basin, and above that, they were the leadership, whereas the shared interest of the basin was at the top of the list.

However, beyond the top of the list was their direct interest in being the first priority on the list. It would be hard to resist for anyone!

‘It’s a pity that because I went to Freedom City to switch identities these past few days, I missed the lucky bag rewards!

‘I should’ve been entitled to them too!

‘I wonder if the game couldn’t find me and saved the lucky bags for me, or if it purposely deducted the reward!’

The special rainbow lucky bag that was awarded by Conquering Star looked very majestic.

But after opening it up, Su Mo only got a beautiful bedside lamp that could be used as a decoration.

At that time, he thought that these lucky bags could only give useless junk.

However, what the people were sharing said otherwise.

The lucky bag reward did not seem to change with the level of the lucky bag but it really depended purely on…

Character points?

‘This seems interesting. The gap between the rich and poor would only get wider if the rewards were based on the level of the lucky bags.

‘The poor will have a chance to catch up, and the rich won’t rely on these lucky bags to save their lives if the reward is given based on character points.

‘This is what I originally intended when I asked for this reward!’

Su Mo nodded silently after agreeing with the game’s approach.

Nine o’clock arrived, and it seemed as if gifts were being sent from the heavens.

Su Mo reached his hand out and waved in the air. Then, everyone’s hands began to appear one after another, and they held onto lucky bags that radiated with different rays of light!

“Wow! I got a purple-colored lucky bag today! Not bad, not bad!”

Amongst the leadership, apart from Chen Shen’s purple-colored lucky bag and Li Hu’s blue lucky bag, everyone had received a lower-level green lucky bag!

Chen Shen gently tugged on the lucky bag, and it immediately dissipated into an illusionary ray of light. The thing that he grabbed out of it was…

A pack of rabbit milk candy!

Chen Shen’s expression was filled with slight confusion and overwhelming shock in an instant.

Everyone could not contain themselves and burst out in laughter.

“Laugh, laugh, laugh! What’re you all laughing about?

“Here! Candy, have some candy! Everyone can have some!”

Chen Shen did not keep the candy for himself, and despite everyone’s “mocking”, he neatly opened the bag to grab a few handfuls of candy and threw it at the table.

The candies managed to stifle everyone’s laughter, and they began to open the lucky bags in front of them.

It seemed that Chen Shen had taken away everyone’s bad luck.

The next lucky bag openings for everyone else went much smoother.

Li Hu had received a personal dagger from the blue-colored lucky bag and was satisfied. The material was excellent, and it was considered a first-class weapon.

Meanwhile, Shen Ke seemed to have won a grand prize from the green-colored lucky bag, a complete set of high-quality toiletries, which would be able to meet his needs for the next whole year perfectly. He was satisfied and happy as if the spring breeze had blown past him.

Pei Shao, the Head of Intelligence, also had good luck. He had received two quality first-hand signal amplifiers which could expand radio signals to a range of 150 kilometers throughout the basin. It would be a perfect upgrade to his radio!

Cheers throughout the basin could be heard as more and more people opened their lucky bags.

Su Mo watched the smiles that appeared amongst the leadership and noticed the people’s undisguised scorching gaze.

Su Mo also did not avoid it any longer and opened his lucky bag while laughing.

Boom!

The last rainbow lucky bag he had opened was ordinary, and the thing he had received was nothing extraordinary.

This time, it was unclear whether because of a longer accumulation time or the personal tasks he had completed in the basin when the lucky bag was opened, a vibrant beam of light penetrated straight into the sky and illuminated the basin with a layer of colorful light.

The next moment, before anyone could open their mouths to utter a sound, the colorful beam of light returned quickly and slammed into the lucky bag with the speed of lightning and exploded!

The item reward would naturally appear in front of the opener of the lucky bag.

However, the strange thing is that, unlike everyone else, Su Mo’s lucky bag had exploded, and it seemed as if the contents of the lucky bag had exploded together without a trace.

“F*ck! What about the reward? Did the beam of light blow up the reward inside the lucky bag?

“What just happened? I thought I won a grand prize or something! Is this stupid game up to something again?

“That…

“I protest! I must protest! That was such a grand display! It should’ve come with something powerful inside it! Are you telling me the game can’t afford itself?!”

The light slowly faded away.

There was still nothing in front of Su Mo.

There was nothing that could be found inside the lucky bag on the table either.

Some villagers rushed out of their prefabricated houses, chasing after the ray of light without knowing what was going on, and stopped to touch their heads, looking around confused.

The leadership who watched the whole process at the table could not hold back their astonishment and sighed loudly.

However, their complaints did not last long as a voice resonated in the ears of everyone who belonged to the basin a few seconds later.

The whole basin was filled with shock.

[Record]: Congratulations to all the players from the “basin”. It was detected that territory lord “Su Mo” has opened a rainbow lucky bag, and the reward is being drawn…

[Record]: Detected, detected, detected…

[Record]: It is detected that this lucky bag reward contains multiple lucky bags. The reward will automatically increase in rank, and the lucky bag reward will be drawn again…

[Record]: The reward has been drawn successfully. Congratulations to territory lord “Su Mo” for drawing the territory property bonus!

[Record]: The territory property bonus will be drawn randomly…

[Record]: The territory property has been drawn. Congratulations to “basin” for obtaining territory property “Little Blessed Land”.

[Record]: The territory property bonus is shared amongst every player within basin territory.

The game had been playing dead for more than a month and was almost nonexistent.

But, it showed up at critical moments.

A series of records began to sound in everyone’s ears.

After repeating the statements three times, the sound gradually disappeared.

At the same time, the blue game panel also popped up in front of everyone’s view as the sound disappeared.

A new icon slowly emerged behind everyone’s name on the main interface.

It was…

The word “Blessed”, which was framed in a rectangle.

“Territory properties?

“‘Little Blessed Land’?”

Su Mo was instantly interested in the sudden icon that appeared behind his name and quickly used his mind to click on it as he sat up.

[Territory Property: Little Blessed Land]

[Property classification: Environment]

[Property level: Level 1]

[Effect range: Each player who belongs to the “basin” will enjoy the full property buff when they are within the territory and will be unable to enjoy the property buff outside the territory’s range.]

[Properties description: Since ancient times, powerful territory lords have always had the most fertile territory. Some may have been formed naturally, some are built by manpower, and some are acquired. However, only the top territory can be called a “blessed territory” among the countless wealthy territories. The blessed territory possesses a series of incredible abilities, which can passively change the territory’s environment, increase the potential value of the territory and make the territory significantly more suitable for residents to live in. At the same time, countless riches and treasures can be birthed within the territory, allowing the territory’s resources to increase significantly. War is bound to break out between territory lords as a new blessed land appears in the new world.]

[Property buff: The environment in the territory increases every day. Players within the blessed land can enjoy +15% energy recovery speed!]

“Hmm…

“This Little Blessed Land seems to be powerful!”

Having felt the effects of Freedom City’s buffs before, and looking at the buffs brought by Little Blessed Land, Su Mo instantly identified the pros and cons between the two of them.

Freedom City had a slight upper hand in terms of buff strength. In the early stages, it could give countless bonuses to people in the territory and let them run ahead of everyone else.

Their bonus not only allowed them to enjoy the buff within the territory but it could also give them a 15% bonus outside of the territory.

However, from a strategic point of view, the longer the bonus was in effect, Freedom City’s buff for their territory citizens would not be as beneficial as the environmental buff from Little Blessed Land.

The potential value of the basin would continuously increase over time, which meant that the basin would become wealthier and produce high-level resources as the description had stated.

By that time, the resources alone would make the basin ten streets ahead of Freedom City in terms of strength!

Of course, this was the best-case scenario if they could keep the resources!

There was a possibility that someone could sneak in and run away with them, then it would be like giving someone else the benefits for free!

“Territory lord, this… this territory property is too good to be true…”

Chen Shen gazed at the panels in front of everyone and focused on the overwhelming territory property buff on the panel. He swallowed his saliva and had a stunned expression.

Assuming that you would get an ordinary reward with one character point and the grand prize was given to those with ten character points, the reward Su Mo had drawn would mean…

He had 10,000 or maybe even 100,000 character points!

In the era of civilization, people who had used up all the luck of their lives would eat when they needed to, drink when they needed to, and try to live as stably as possible.

However, in the wasteland, everyone looked at Su Mo, who seemed to be glowing, and suddenly understood…

You would end up envious if you compare yourself to others!

Compared to the things they received, such as food and physical items, the reward that Su Mo had drawn could be shared with everyone and even had a super buff effect on the territory, which was ridiculously strong!

“Hahaha! It seems I’m lucky today!

“By the way, I’d like to take this opportunity to announce something!”

Su Mo cleared his throat and turned toward the crowd that had expectant expressions on their faces. He made a long story short and quickly briefed them about the requirements to construct a monument.

Su Mo explained every detail, from the 20-meter tall stone statue to the 50-centimeter margin of error, to the people.

The difficulty and practicality of constructing the monument were significantly lower than building the prefabricated houses, which required much more space.

It was as Su Mo had expected, that none of the 15 people present refuted the idea after listening to his explanation and nodded in agreement.

Shen Ke, who had always been in charge of construction, even gave a precise deadline to complete the project.

“Ten days?”

“That’ll be enough! It has to be before the snowfall!

“That is definitely enough time!”
