My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 279: What I Need Is… For Them To Fear Me!

[Record]: You have spent a total of 18 hours, 52 minutes, and 44 seconds in Liangfang Town’s core this time. Your finalized expense is 11.3 days

[Record]: You need to spend an extra 13.9 days this time for the necessary energy support needed for activity in the ruins

[Record]: You have used up 25.2 days in total this time; 604 hours in total

[Record]: It has been detected that the time currency you currently have is enough for payment (104 days). Will you pay?

Just like the last time when he came out from the ruins of time, after he chose to exit, he returned to that mysterious space once again.

In this space, Moore and Oreo—who had initially been leaping around—were now lying unmoving on the ground as if they were unconscious.

Moreover, this time, there were no celebratory sounds to herald making it through the ruins. Instead, there was the emotionless sound of the game panel, asking if he would pay with the currency.

“Hm, I never thought I’d spend close to twenty-plus days here this time. If I didn’t have the currency, the ocean disaster might have already shown up when I came out.”

If he did not have time currency, it would have been a gamble every time he entered the ruins.

In his previous discussion with Brother Feng Zi, he had even wanted to use the time flow of the ruins to avoid disasters. However, looking at it now, this would probably remain just a dream.

“I choose to pay…”

Flipping his hand and producing one 30-day coin, Su Mo tossed it lightly into the void.

Before his eyes, the time currency became a ray of light the moment it flew into the air and was sucked into an invisible open mouth.

After a few seconds of swallowing, when the rift opened again, it spat out 4 one-day coins.

[Record]: It has been detected that player “Su Mo” has paid 30-day coin x1.

[Record]: Your current balance of 0.8 days has been automatically bound to the game panel. You can use directly use it next time you enter.

[Record]: Wishing you happy gaming! Do you wish to return?

Just like how change in markets was given in whole numbers whereas the small change was kept on a tab, when the game panel increased by 0.8 days in the bottom right corner, Su Mo’s mind stirred slightly, and he chose to return.

Boom!

A bright beam of light descended from the sky again, enveloping the entire void.

Within the beam of light, when Su Mo opened his eyes again, he was surprised to notice that he had already returned to the Underground Shelter.

“How mysterious. Is this the power of a top-up payment?”

Moore and Oreo were still unconscious and had not woken up yet, lying decorously on the floor.

However, the things he brought out in the big net bag were currently all piled on the ground.

From the huge 4×4 vertical launch system to more than 30 robots, plus various other bits and pieces, the garage space was almost full.

Compared to what he received this time, the last few rounds had merely been drops in the ocean.

“Not bad, not bad. This saves me from having to rearrange items again. It’s really convenient this time around!”

Since the two little ones were still unconscious, Su Mo opened the stone door and went down.

When he left previously, it had been just past seven but not yet eight o’clock in the wasteland. Including the time it took for the ruins to form, the time had not gone past eight o’clock.

Now, however, the hands of the clock hanging on the third floor were pointing at 9.40. A rough calculation revealed it had been two whole hours.

“It seems like the time exempted is probably a minimum of two hours. No matter how much I spend, I have to use up this much time.”

Nodding, after he silently made note of the key time difference points this time when being transported to and from the core of the ruins, Su Mo made his way back to the first floor to move things.

Aside from the missile device, which was too big and could not be shifted for now, the other items were all brought to the third floor for storage.

Wealth should not be flaunted.

Although it was impossible for these people from the Candlelight Shelter to form evil intentions when they saw all these things, this sort of healthy awareness had to be maintained to become a habit.

Once a habit was formed, it could prevent a lot of unnecessary trouble.

Su Mo kept moving things until ten o’clock. By the time he had categorized all the items and put everything away properly, Moore and Oreo had finally woken up as well.

It was a pity, however, that shuttling through space seemed to use up a lot of energy. The two little ones’ legs were numb, and all they could do was to remain lying on the floor.

Su Mo pulled out the winch and slowly raised the door. The pleasant 10 o’clock morning air of the wasteland started gradually flowing in.

“Ahh, home sweet home. It’s still a little more welcoming here!”

Having been digging holes for ten hours or more, Su Mo felt his entire being relax when he saw such white clouds and blue sky.

Compared to the stale air in Liangfang Town, the wasteland’s freshness was as if one had stepped into fairyland—that is, if one ignored the frequent disasters.

When he walked out, very surprisingly, there were no guards near the Underground Shelter today.

However, when his gaze traveled further to the other end of the shipyard, the smile on Su Mo’s face vanished instantly, and his relaxed body began to tense up as well.

“Sure enough, once I let these people eat their fill, they found some way to cause some trouble!

“They know this territory is mine, yet they’re still so bold as to come over here. Who gave you that kind of nerve!”

After returning the alloy door to a semi-open state and calling Moore over to keep an eye on it, Su Mo turned and quickly went back to the third floor. He then turned on the old TV that he had not touched in ages.

As his power and fame increased, Su Mo had used less and less of this “old” item that was only good for monitoring things within a range of one kilometer.

Currently, however, not even Su Mo had anticipated that the next individuals to show up on his doorstep would not be the foreign races he had expected, but…

Humans!

Buzz buzz…

Hiss hiss hiss…

After the familiar disorderly static sounded, an image gradually appeared as Su Mo operated the remote control connected to it.

He rapidly set the camera to the furthest distance it could monitor, and the rowdy state of things at the shipyard finally emerged clearly in the picture.

At present, it was not just Hope Village’s hundred over refugees standing there, all carrying various weapons.

Opposite Hope Village were also one or two hundred people standing there.

Next to these people, Su Mo even saw a modern contraption—a medium-sized modified truck with a large No2 printed on it.

Pulled along behind the truck were dozens of small skateboards. It was probably these things that had enabled them to arrive so swiftly at the Underground Shelter.

“Oh ho, aren’t these familiar faces? They actually dare to come here and run wild!

“I have to say, the wasteland is so vast—there aren’t many people who would dare to come stomping in like this.”

As he slowly moved the camera and caught sight of a familiar face at the forefront of the opposite crowd, a murderous glint flashed through Su Mo’s eyes.

It was none other than the bearded live broadcaster from the Zeus Shelter who had occupied a steady first place in the first live broadcast!

After Big Beard was pushed into second place by Su Mo following the first live broadcast, Zeus Shelter had not been able to get into the top rankings the second time either. It seemed as if they had been relegated to obscurity.

Currently, however, upon seeing these people’s physiques, Su Mo could not help being full of praise for the cohesiveness and courage of the Hope Village inhabitants.

The admission requirements for the Zeus Shelter were that men could not be shorter than 175cm, and women could not be shorter than 168cm. This resulted in their people being stronger, whether it was in terms of size or combat effectiveness.

In comparison, the Hope Village villagers might have had a few better meals, but they were still emaciated. Furthermore, because they had an excess of women, if an ambush happened, they would definitely be at a disadvantage.

“Luckily I gave Qi Qin a gun before I left, or this place would have become a scene of devastation long before I returned!”

Although they were unequal in terms of strength, these two parties could still confront each other because of the guns that Qi Qin and Wu Feiguang were wielding on the frontlines of the Candlelight Shelter.

Along with Zhong Qingshu, who was still hiding in the shadows, the Candlelight Shelter had three people with firearms.

The Zeus Shelter opposite them was much poorer. Only two people had handguns, which was why such a tricky situation had occurred.

“It looks like they got a truck from the first airdrop box where I got the excavator. Their luck is a little better than mine.

“But to have the audacity to bully my people—do they have a death wish?”

The old TV could not pick up sound. After discovering he was unable to make out what the opposing party was saying, Su Mo hurried to the safety warehouse without taking off his armor and loaded up some ammunition.

Though friction between humans was bound to happen sooner or later, Su Mo had still not expected this day to come so swiftly.

“Since Blazeland’s group ascension path won’t work, I don’t need everyone to respect me anymore.

“What I need…

“Is for them to fear me!”

After entering the ruins once, Su Mo’s attitude had changed a great deal.

Picking up the gun and releasing the safety after tossing a rifle to Moore, the two of them squeezed out from the half-open iron door. With Su Mo in the lead, they took a roundabout direction.

…

“Huaxians, this treasure was something all of us discovered together, yet you want to shamelessly claim it…”

“Your mother’s *ss, this clearly belongs to our Almighty Su! It’s an item in our Hope Village territory, yet it’s become your treasure now?”

“Hurry up and piss off, or when Almighty Su returns, he’s surely going to slaughter you.”

Big Beard from Zeus Shelter was standing at the head of the confrontation. He had barely uttered one sentence before he was mercilessly slammed by Chen Shen.

Hope Village had three sources of firepower, whereas Zeus Shelter had two.

As decisive as Zhong Qingshu was, she would not have hesitated at all to make a move and dispose of these two individuals with firearms, wiping out the enemy from the very start.

However, what complicated things was…

Their fellow Huaxians!

In the middle of the Zeus Shelter team were around twelve or thirteen Huaxians trapped in the center.

Compared to the well-nourished people next to them, the Huaxians were skinny and scrawny. Furthermore, they also had a few golden-haired foreigners pointing knives at their backs.

“How about this—in the next five minutes, if you don’t willingly back off and let us investigate, we’ll present a Huaxian to you.

“But this person… will be a corpse!”

Big Beard was not angry at Chen Shen’s cursing. He called a member standing behind to pull a Huaxian forward.

“You brute, if you do this, when Almighty Su comes back, he definitely won’t let you off!”

Seeing a fellow Huaxian kicked so hard that their legs buckled and they fell straight onto the ground on their knees, even the villagers felt like their eyes would burst from rage, much less the Huaxian management. They were itching to get into formation.

This group of people who had just transmigrated over for only a month had indeed suffered a great deal during the move from Candlelight Village to Hope Village, but they also had the prison guards and Su Mo’s protection. Apart from having starved for a while, these people had never encountered the evil that resided in human hearts.

Moreover, even an old dog like Kento Maeda, who sought sanctuary with foreign races, had not taken away food or safety from his own race.

Now, however, seeing these people’s shameless faces, everybody was enraged!

“Almighty Su? You’re relying on Su Mo alone? Could it be he still has a Dongfeng Missile?

“Don’t be na?ve. Su Mo is just a regular person who has a bit more luck.

“You Huaxians just love to randomly deify random people, don’t you? Hahahahaha!”

Big Beard laughed with abandon, but before he could open his mouth and continue his mockery…

Bang!

A bullet swiftly entered the throat of the golden-haired foreigner who had kicked the Huaxian aside. Blood blossomed like a poignant red flower.

“Who’s that!”

Seeing the person beside him crumple and not knowing where the gunshot came from, Big Beard paused, then shouted as he fled toward the crowd.

However… what answered him…

Was the sound of gunshots that exploded next to the small group of Huaxians!

There was no need for any useless chatter or even any explanations.

The moment these people stepped into his territory, in Su Mo’s heart, they had already been put on the death list.
