Global Wasteland: I Obtained A Top Tier Shelter-Chapter 63: What It’s Like to Have a Small Warehouse
Chapter 63: Chapter 63: What It’s Like to Have a Small Warehouse
Darkness enveloped the earth.
The insects and birds that had been dormant during the day, along with the various creatures hidden in the desert, were now rushing across this vast expanse under the bright moonlight of two moons.
At one corner of the desert, inside the shelter completely enclosed by sturdy stone walls.
In the bright firelight, Lin Yue was fully focused on unlocking the treasure chests he acquired.
Before entering the Secret Realm, after eliminating 72 mutant insects, he used the Steel Repeating Crossbow to take down a Tiger-striped Shadow Deer and a Mutant Sheep. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com
Naturally, the number of chests obtained in the end was quite astonishing.
He opened each of the 72 Wooden Treasure Chests one by one.
[You have obtained 600ml of Mount Everest Mineral Water X1]
[And obtained]
[You have obtained...]
bottles of water, 13 packs of instant noodles, 8 pieces of bread, 4 packs of dried noodles, 2 steamed buns.
The supply of water has greatly increased again, bringing Lin Yue’s reserves to nearly 28 liters.
Just now, to guard against the potential invasion of numerous mutant insects at night, he moved the Soilless Cultivation Kit into the plastic greenhouse and secured it with a large amount of stone, while covering the greenhouse with animal skins.
Though it consumed some time, this effort is necessary for the future supply of vegetables.
However, Lin Yue also wondered if, with electricity supply someday, an automated cover system could be added, making it more effortless for him.
He opened the remaining Copper Treasure Chest and Silver Treasure Chest.
[You have obtained 4L of drinking water, region map fragments X2]
[You have obtained the East Beige Disaster Relief Tent X1, anti-magnetic interference competitive type orienteering compass X1]
Lin Yue’s eyes lit up.
Oh wow, got some good stuff.
The mere 4L of water doesn’t matter much to him; it’s just a bit more to add to the total storage.
Regional map fragments, and he acquired two pieces at once!
Lin Yue paid no attention to anything else and directly used them immediately.
With a flash of light, he tapped the panel and quickly found that two map pieces had appeared, one of which was far away from him, whereas the other...
It was actually right next to his shelter!
The newly appeared map had already merged with his, forming a larger area.
However, Lin Yue noticed that the gray dot representing the shelter was still there, but the red dot representing people was missing!
Gone, or perhaps dead?
Generally speaking, at night when mutant creatures are more frenzied, people wouldn’t leave the shelter.
The harshness of survival has never changed.
Lin Yue took a breath and closed the panel.
If feasible, he’d like to explore over there tomorrow to see what’s there.
Moreover, according to the map, there seems to be a small stone-piled symbol in that direction, further piquing his interest.
The fiercest beast in this area, the Tiger-striped Shadow Deer, basically poses no threat to him now; as long as he prepares thoroughly and stays vigilant, it shouldn’t be a big problem to venture there.
Additionally, he obtained a seemingly quite useful compass.
Taking out the compass from the treasure chest, Lin Yue found it even more convenient than the one on the map, as he could easily discern the direction by strapping it onto his wrist.
Also, it looks quite nice, especially the dial, which has a luminescent effect that allows the direction to be seen clearly even at night.
This device might not surpass the system’s built-in map here, but in the Secret Realm, it could indeed help him find directions accurately.
He pointed the wrist compass toward the stone door direction, discovering it was precisely due south, then proceeded to take out the last item from the treasure chest.
East Beige Disaster Relief Tent...
Speaking of which, he previously acquired a tent design map.
To make a tent using this design map, he would not only need alloy steel but also nylon fabric.
It’s virtually useless, similar to the flashlight design map requiring bulbs, plastic, batteries, and metal springs.
Carefully observing the folded tent, he felt its built-in frame’s hardness and was surprised by the flexible yet highly elastic fabric.
The blue label on the tent reads, "Utilizes flame retardant materials, earthquake-resistant, capable of withstanding avalanches and other extreme situations, with waterproof materials resisting up to 3000mm water pressure, UV protection."
Alongside the main tent component are 40 40cm long stakes, five tent poles, and extremely sturdy polyester tent ropes, plus a roll of ground cloth.
What a catch, this Silver Treasure Chest was truly worth it.
If mutant creatures aren’t considered, this thing could essentially serve as a basic shelter.
Feeling delighted, Lin Yue packed the item into the accompanying storage bag, which didn’t take up much space after being stored, and placed it directly into the Storage Space.
Who knows when it might be needed.
After organizing things, Lin Yue descended into the basement, looking at two spaces totaling 80 square meters already crammed with lots of items.
One stone-made space filled with shelves and goods stands beside an iron-made space stocked with alcohol; pondering for a while, he opened the Survival Points Mall.
Spending 400 survival points, he exchanged for a Shelter Design Map, surprising himself to realize that further purchases would be beyond 400 points.
"What does the system need survival points for? The next Shelter Design Map actually costs 4000 points? Why not just rob?" Lin Yue grumbled at the Survival Points Mall.
Rechecking the simple greenhouse, he found it’s still only 500 points.
Weird, is it to prevent building too many shelters?
Using the design map, a new stone-built shelter immediately emerged underground. Naturally, Lin Yue didn’t forget to give it a proper foundation.
With the additional 40 square meters, Lin Yue first took out shelving from the convenience store, placing and securing it with stone, then arranged various lightweight items acquired from there as well as some water onto the shelves.
As for freezers and such, they were placed in different corners since for now, the hand-crank generator couldn’t power them, leaving them as temporary dust collectors.
The hand-crank generator built earlier has too low a power capacity, far from the potential of a real "electrical life."
When can an era of electricity be achieved? Lin Yue longs for it, but at present, there’s hardly a solution.
After doing all this, Lin Yue returned upstairs and began preparing dinner.
Speaking of which, the noodles obtained from the treasure chests had yet to be tasted.
Lin Yue grabbed a piece of wood to use as a chopping board and sliced the mutant sheep meat into small pieces with a knife.
Next, he took out a seasoning packet from a package of instant noodles and used a wooden spatula to fry it in the pot before adding the meat, soon filling the air with a delightful aroma.
"Peep?" Bai, who had been resting, was attracted by the smell and quickly approached.
After stir-frying for a while, Lin Yue served it onto a plate and directly added water to the noodles.
Once the noodles were cooked, he scooped them out, placing them finely in a bowl, topped with lamb gravy.
"Smells great!"
There’s a subtle difference from eating instant noodles, yet it has a unique charm.
Bai eagerly bounced around, its large eyes fixated on the bowl, and as soon as Lin Yue finished, it plunged its head into the bowl, inhaling vigorously while exhaling icy mist!
"Eating noodles without garlic, half the fun’s lost; no vinegar, something’s missing..."
Lin Yue found himself yearning for a set of condiments.
However...
Speaking of which, shouldn’t the disaster warning be out by now?
Opening the system panel, he widened his eyes at the warnings above.
"It’s actually... this disaster? Well, the system plans annihilation, huh?"
...
Sorry, busy over the weekend haha.
Promising the second Chapter will come soon!
