nIn this disaster, without exception, all live broadcast rooms ranked in the top ten chose to build shelters on the ground, mainly with wooden houses.

n

nOnly the Lone Wolf Guide live broadcast room ranked ninth was made of a team of seven people.

n

nInstead of living in the shelter provided by the survival game, they simply chose to move to the foot of a mountain.

n

nThese people worked on digging a hole day and night for five days and finally dug out a cave that could accommodate seven people on the last day.

n

nIt was sturdily built against a mountain.

n

n“I wonder if these people have given up the shelter the game provided, or if it wasn’t released at all…”

n

nSu Mo pondered and began to wonder how the shelter would develop.

n

nHe subconsciously placed more emphasis on the game panel-generated shelter following the cues from the game panel.

n

nAs a result, development was currently stunted in the shelters.

n

nIt was a good thing but also a bad one to some extent.

n

n“I’m alone, while they have at least seven or eight people. Some even have a few dozens. I’m certainly not as fast as them in collecting supplies at the early stage. If I want to catch up with them, the only way to surpass them is to use technology!”

n

n‘I didn’t expect a corporate slave like me, who grew up studying, memorizing textbooks, and had never used my brain much could plan a base like a pro one day, but my hair…’ Su Mo laughed wryly at himself.

n

nBlindly hoarding resources and upgrading the shelter would only turn it into a solid tomb. When your upgrading speed could not keep up with the scale of the disaster, you would have to give up without a fight.

n

n“It requires combat abilities to get the good things in the ruins and explore the wilderness. It just won’t work without better equipment and weapons.”

n

n“The priority now is to find a way to develop electricity. I have an advantage, so I must use it.” Su Mo’s eyes darkened. “I’ll have to play it by ear.”

n

nThe rain was still falling outside. Su Mo got up and began to carefully weave a straw raincoat and a straw umbrella.

n

nHe had to go out and look around the shelter to make sure nothing happened.

n

nAfter some weaving…

n

n“Perhaps my weaving is too bad that the system doesn’t recognize it at all?”

n

nSeeing that the system failed to show the properties of the grass raincoat, Su Mo pursed his lips and spent another 4 units of wood to build a wooden trunk.

n

nHe put the grass raincoat into it and silently hypnotized himself.

n

n“It’s a closet. It’s a closet. It’s a closet!”

n

nHe said to himself thrice, focused, and his inner voice called to the survival system to look at the wooden trunk.

n

nSimple wardrobe

n

nDescription: Wood, used to store clothes.

n

nStock: Straw raincoat.

n

nPlease choose the item to upgrade: 1. Closet

n

n2. Grass raincoat

n

n“I knew it!”

n

nSu Mo raised his eyebrows when he saw the closet’s properties.

n

nAfter creating the grass raincoat, he could not see the grass raincoat’s properties and upgrade option when he summoned the survival system.

n

nThe system did not recognize this item at all.

n

nIt was like the tables and tea sets taken from the ruins, with no upgrade options developed.

n

nAfter creating the closet and putting it in, the upgrade options popped up.

n

n“I choose 2!”

n

nHe said to himself, and the grass raincoat’s properties were already on display when he looked at it.

n

nGrass raincoat

n

nDescription: A raincoat weaved from plant fibers. Provides minimal rain resistance.

n

nFirst upgrade option: Change the material and its look. Has stronger comfort. Survival points required (25).

n

nSecond upgrade option: Change the material and add electric power. Has stronger impact resistance, radiation resistance, corrosion resistance… Survival points required (300).

n

nIntroduction: An old man in a lonely boat, fishing alone in the snow.

n

n“Why these two options?”

n

nSu Mo frowned.

n

nIf he wanted to go outside, of course he wanted better water resistance!

n

nHowever, the two upgrade options that popped out did not make it clear where they enhanced.

n

nIt would be a waste to spend his survival point in this way.

n

nAs he gave it a try, Su Mo said to himself:

n

n“System, can I replace the upgrade option with stronger water resistance?”

n

nThere was a flash of light as Su Mo finished speaking, and the two upgrade options that were presented flashed away and became a new interface.

n

nGrass raincoat

n

nDescription: A raincoat weaved from plant fibers. Provides minimal rain resistance.

n

nUpgrade option: Strong raincoat

n

nSections: Waterproof (10), material (10), heat insulation (10), corrosion resistance (10)…

n

nIntroduction: Strong waterproof raincoat. It can keep you fresh on rainy days

n

nDon’t expose to the sun. Dry it in the shade.

n

n“I can change it?”

n

nSu Mo was surprised.

n

nApart from the psychic energy water well upgrade, it was the first time he had seen a separate property upgrade.

n

nCompared to the vague comprehensive upgrade, this upgrade was slightly more expensive, but you could choose the property you want, which was more suitable in this scenario.

n

n“It seems there are a lot more ways to use the system that I don’t know about…”

n

nHe memorized the information earlier and spent 20 survival points. Su Mo selected one by one and upgraded the water-resistance and material.

n

nInstantly.

n

nThe grass raincoat in the closet began to change.

n

nThe grass-woven waterproof layer started becoming dense, and the material also began to change.

n

nIt gradually changed from grass to a material similar to the waterproof cloth in the civilized age.

n

nThe color had also changed from the original yellow-green to a mixture of black and white.

n

nWhen the upgrade was completed, Su Mo took out the strong raincoat and began sizing it up.

n

n“It really is a raincoat upgraded by the system. No machine can come out with this workmanship!”

n

nYou needed precision to resist water.

n

nAfter putting on the raincoat, Su Mo found that the strong raincoat was a pullover. His body, hands, and feet were enveloped in it, which saved him the need to hold an umbrella.

n

nFrom head to toe, the raincoat fit him perfectly like it was customized for him. There were tiny air holes in the face area that allowed him to breathe and a water-repellent layer that ensured no water molecules could sneak in.

n

nNo mutant beast presence detected within a thousand-meter radius of the player.

n

nToday’s count 2

/3

n

nAfter telling Oreo to stay in the base, Su Mo opened the main door, pulled the bolt up, and walked out.

n

nA hot damp feeling swept over his face.

n

nCrackling raindrops hit the top of his head and slid down the material of his raincoat to the ground.

n

nEven under the wind, a lot of raindrops spattered on his face covered by the raincoat.

n

nReaching out his hand, Su Mo wiped the water off his mask and looked out, gasping uncontrollably.

n

nThe area outside of the shelter seemed to have turned into a swamp.

n

nStanding halfway up the hill, the dry earth that was about to crack had drunk enough water and became sludge.

n

nThe brown vegetation began to turn green.

n

n“The rain here is so heavy! It’s a good thing I have a special raincoat.”

n

nSlightly perturbed, Su Mo shook his head and examined the soil around the shelter.

n

nThe amount of rain varied from place to place. It was information he gathered from the live broadcast rooms.

n

nThe rain at the number one Zeus Shelter was probably less terrifying.

n

nOne foot was deep, and the other was shallow.

n

nSu Mo came to the back of the hill.

n

nMeanwhile, three excavated drains were working at full capacity to keep water from accumulating under the shelter’s hill.

n

nA small lake had already formed at the area sixty meters away from the shelter.

n

nUpon the sight of it.

n

n.

n

nSu Mo somewhat regretted it too.

n

nIf he had known, he would have just built a drain and built it as far away as he could!

n

nWho knew this rain was so heavy it could create a small lake about ten meters long and wide at the back of the base?

n

n“Gosh. I’ll be living near a mountain and lake once the rain stops!”

n

nAfter checking that the drains were not blocked, Su Mo walked around the shelter again, checking for loose soil.

n

nFortunately, days of insolation made the land lack moisture desperately, preventing it from becoming a swamp.

n

nOtherwise, he would not be able to do anything or move around for a day or two after the disaster.

n

nAfter patrolling for half an hour, Su Mo began to head back. Relying on his raincoat for water protection, he was still dry and comfortable.

n

nBack in front of the shelter’s main door.

n

nSu Mo opened the main door. However, the moment he opened the main door, he casually turned his head. On the grassland more than ten meters away.

n

nAn unexpected marking caught Su Mo’s attention.

n

nAfter taking a close look, Su Mo’s pupils immediately constricted!

n

n‘Are these…’

n

n‘Footprints?’
