My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 681: Lost in the Mountains, Suspicious Buildings! Part 1

At the foot of Five Fingers Mountain.

Su Mo showed a satisfied smile as he spotted the scout robot that was already in sight with the help of the detection device. Follow current s on novelenglish.net . ꜰire

‘Good.

‘It’s as I predicted. As we walk deeper into the mountains, the detection device’s frequency also receives better emission,’ thought Su Mo.

The detection range had already exceeded the 100-meter restriction they faced when first entering Great Mountain and reached nearly 600 meters.

Finding the scout robot was no longer difficult, even when it was hidden.

Su Mo saw a few snow bunnies surrounding the scout robot in the distance, but they swiftly hopped away after they sensed his presence.

‘There’s a sudden appearance of so many wild animals. It seems that every time a disaster is over, the New World will also release a batch of living species, similar to the previous wasteland.

‘This is very good news!’ Su Mo thought to himself.

He also saw a bunch of different wild animals along the way.

According to the release density, at least 20 to 40 small to medium-sized animals were released per kilometer.

The creatures that were released could be estimated to be at least six figures judging by the vast landscape of Great Mountain.

It was enough to restore life within the barren mountain forest.

‘There must be a lot more spawned in the plains!

‘I wonder how’s everything going back at home. Have any creatures spawned in the territory?’

Su Mo replaced the scout robot’s memory card and smiled as he thought of his territory.

It was unrealistic to rely on humans to develop various industrial machines and form a complete ecological environment.

Taking Earth as an example, organisms, plants, microorganisms, and other aspects needed to intervene to gradually develop a complete ecological environment cycle.

The game promoted this process by releasing a batch of living beings after a disaster.

As for the game’s purpose, there was not much difference whether it was done to give fake hope to the creatures within the wasteland so that everyone could have better hopes for the future and motivate them to participate in the “authority collection tasks” in order to survive, or a rule that was stipulated in the game by the incubator realm to compensate the survivors after a disaster. It was enough for those struggling to survive in the doomsday wasteland as long as there was a steady stream of resource rewards.

It was useless for the game to promise to send out a truck of scare supplies and reward the players with a solid underground shelter after they survived 20 to 30 disasters.

These rewards were not physically obtained yet, and there was no real reward to continuously improve everyone’s strength at the moment.

‘Speaking of animals... there are so many empty territories around us. I wonder if Chen Shen and the others realize that they need to snatch these resources before the others get to them.’

Su Mo was slightly greedy as he saw the countless unowned wild animals around Great Mountain.

‘There’d be more than enough to eat if Chen Shen and the other leadership members dispatched forces earlierto claim these wild animals, including those within the ents’ territory and the Demon Clan.

‘We can establish a modern farm in the future, and there will be a steady production of meat after a few months, which would completely solve our shortage of protein sources once and for all.

‘Maybe I should get someone to head back to tell them?’ Su Mo rubbed his chin and began to think.

Suddenly, Oreo, who was chasing and playing with a snow rabbit, stopped abruptly. Then, she raised her head and barked.

“Did you sense someone coming?”

...

Su Mo walked north along Five Fingers Mountain and found a pothole about two kilometers away.

Following the footsteps left by Su Mo, Feng Long, the assistant captain of the expedition team, quickly rushed over.

When he finally jumped over a ridge, and his field of vision was clear, he saw Su Mo standing under a big tree. His eyes immediately lit up, and he shouted from a distance.

“Shelter leader! I finally found you!”

Feng Long immediately scrambled toward him with an anxious expression despite the slight slope ahead of him.

“What’s the matter? Did you encounter that group of mysterious enemies?” Su Mo could not help but ask nervously as he saw Feng Long frantically running toward him.

Feng Mengyue already informed Su Mo about all the territories within Eight Peak Mountain.

Although there were two territories on Five Finger Mountain, the scale was merely about a hundred people, and they were on the other side of the mountain.

Moreover, they hardly posed a threat to the expedition team with their weak forces.

Thus, the only remaining possibility was the group of mysterious people that destroyed the Murderer Territory.

‘It wouldn’t be possible for Feng Long to escape if they encountered those mysterious people,’ thought Su Mo.

“No, shelter leader... they aren’t enemies. While exploring the vicinity of Five Finger Mountain, we found... found a building from our territory!”

Feng Long leaned on his knees as he explained the situation and gasped out of breath.

Feng Long was so stunned when he saw the building that his heart almost stopped when the other soldiers discovered and led him to it.

After all, they suddenly discovered a building with the complete architectural features of a civilized age sitting in a deep pothole.

Any Huaxia descendant would relate it to the supernatural if they stumbled upon such a sight.

‘Could it be a mountain spirit?

‘Or maybe a ghost?’

Feng Long was unsure, and Feng Tianmin was even more confused.
