My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 89: Enhanced Strength, The Incredible TV!

“One hundred and fifty liters of diesel and 5 kilograms of toluene, the upgraded oil well really is powerful!”

“Speaking of which, if Magoo had this many accessory modules and resources, he could have lived an extra one or two hundred days!”

Seeing the stunning harvest, Su Mo could not help but click his tongue.

Five kilograms of toluene, based on the previous manufacturing efficiency, could at least produce a few dozen kilograms of picric acid bombs.

A famous type of dynamite, these could break apart mountains and open new frontiers.

If one could locate the main pillars of the Kobold Castle and detonate these explosives together, the seemingly indestructible castle would be turned into a pile of ruins in seconds.

“Hahaha, what am I thinking, I’m not an architecture student.” Su Mo shook his head, smiling broadly from the joys of the plentiful harvest.

“What can bring more happiness than farming and watching your supplies increase?” Waving his hand, an oil barrel appeared. He tapped on the diesel in the storage tank of the motor-pumped oil well again, and started transferring it by focusing his will.

At the moment, only 6.5L was left in the barrel from the previous harvest.

Gurgle! Gurgle!

Diesel appeared from thin air and poured out rapidly into the oil barrel.

The 100L capacity barrel was filled up in an instant, and the transfer process halted according to Su Mo’s will.

Placing the oil barrel into the storage space, Su Mo stepped out through the door and walked toward the buggy. He opened the buggy’s fuel tank.

After the past few days of traveling around, there was only 20L of diesel left in the buggy. Given its huge fuel tank, that was basically akin to hitting the bottom.

With a wave of his hand, the oil barrel appeared on the ground. Su Mo unscrewed the lid of the oil barrel and tried to grab it, his arms surging with energy.

As he applied more strength, the veins in his arms bulged and even the blood vessels on his forearm became visible.

“Up!”

With both feet grounded, Su Mo used the strength of his waist as a pivot, his face flushed with exertion.

Although his body felt a little shaky and unstable, after his center of gravity stabilized, he was able to grasp the handles of the barrel with both hands and, using his full strength, the oil barrel was slowly lifted off the ground.

The oil barrel that weighed more than one hundred and sixty catties had been completely lifted by Su Mo!

He aligned the mouth of the barrel with the fuel tank opening. Tilting it slightly, the pale yellow diesel slowly emerged from the tank and flowed into the buggy’s fuel tank.

Receiving this strong “blood” injection, the buggy almost seemed happy as well, making creaking sounds.

Su Mo waited until the buggy’s fuel tank was full before putting down the oil barrel and looking at it. There was originally a 100L of diesel in the barrel, but only about 40L remained now.

“Good lord, my strength has definitely increased now. I can lift things weighing more than one hundred and sixty catties. There’s definitely something other than the psychic energy water at work here!” Putting down the oil barrel, Su Mo saw that the flow of blood around his arm was a lot thicker than normal.

Raising his arm, Su Mo looked up and down curiously, unable to figure out the reason for the enhanced strength.

“Does it mean that, in the ruins…killing monsters provides a strength bonus? Or is it instead related to the faster flow of time increasing my strength?”

The effect of the psychic energy water was limited. At the very least Oreo, who had been drinking it every day, had no obvious changes.

On the contrary, after entering and leaving the ruins twice, Su Mo could feel a significant enhancement of power.

“I’ll have to figure out a way to measure the limits of my strength, and then compare it periodically. This way, the next time I exit the ruins, I will know what caused this!”

Lifting the oil barrel once again, Su Mo placed it back into the storage space. He turned back and closed the second-floor door of the Deep-sea Shelter.

As the date of the blizzard disaster approached, the temperature outside continued to drop.

It was almost ten o’clock in the morning and Su Mo could see frost forming after exhaling his breath.

“Oreo, let’s go. Stop playing!”

On the contrary, for Huskies, the coldness liberated their nature. Oreo became far more active in the cold.

Hearing Su Mo’s words, Oreo, who was still running happily in the wilderness, hurried back, bouncing along all the way.

Su Mo sat on the driver’s seat of the buggy and waited until Oreo got in as well. After she had fastened her own seat belt, Su Mo stepped on the accelerator and they zoomed off.

Now that there was fuel in his possession, Su Mo felt more secure.

Back at the base, Su Mo opened the fuel tank of the diesel generator and poured in all the remaining diesel.

He turned on the generator and connected the electrical supply of the shelter to the generator.

Su Mo came to the living room and connected the new LCD TV to the plug point.

He removed the mechanical controller from the old TV and installed it on the LCD TV, then flipped the switch!

Pop!

A soft noise echoed in the shelter before the screen of the LCD TV automatically lit up. Three options appeared on the screen.

Recording and review, image error correction, and normal mode.

Su Mo tried the normal mode first. Selecting it, he saw that it was just like the LCD TV on Earth, just that there was no signal connected to the display screen.

Returning to the previous option panel, he selected on recording and review. With a snap, Su Mo’s face appeared on the screen.

“Hey, could this thing be used as a mirror as well?”

Su Mo waved his hand curiously, and the Su Mo in the picture also waved back.

Examining the TV, Su Mo failed to find anything that resembled a “camera”. When Su Mo tried to adjust the angle, the screen display began to move.

It went through the thick stone wall and stretched out to the outside world. Like the old TV, the LCD TV also had a monitoring function, though the monitoring function on this TV only had a 100m range.

Pulling back the camera view, Su Mo aimed the camera at the crop culture room. After Big Spark and Little Spark had eaten, they had regained their spirits and were playing hide and seek in the vegetable culture medium.

Oreo was laying on the ground, scratching her head. She scratched at the yellow grass stains on her body.

Su Mo tried to press the recording button below, just like how one would record a video on a mobile phone. The following appeared:

Pause, 0.01/infinity, stop.

Once the recording started, the camera angle could not be switched. It could only be rotated around within a limited range.

Su Mo went around from front to back, and then from left to right, recording the video. After about a minute of recording, Su Mo had figured out how to operate the recording function.

He went back to the option panel and selected the image error correction this time.

The previously recorded video appeared in the column, and Su Mo tapped on it curiously.

Playing the video, the screen began to move. Sitting in front of the screen, Su Mo was shocked, his mouth expanding into an O shape!

“Damn… this function is too crazy!!!”

“O”

“RE”

“O!!”

Su Mo called out loudly. Oreo tilted her head and walked over at a brisk pace. She lay down in front of Su Mo.

The next second, Oreo also noticed that she had appeared on the screen. She howled curiously, not knowing what was going on.

Playing the video again, Su Mo picked up Oreo and started to ruffle around her fur at a strange angle using his hands.

“Woof~ Woof~ Wooo~”

Along with the strength and speed of Su Mo’s hand, a strange feeling overcame her. Oreo, who was being held in Su Mo’s arms, groaned comfortably.

A bunch of weeds and plants that had gotten mixed up in Oreo’s fur began to fall to the ground due to Su Mo’s movements.

Fur that had been knotted and tangled also started to become smooth.

Strands of tangled fur fell off Oreo’s body, twirling aimlessly in the air, before finally falling to the ground.

Smoothing the fur without professional techniques and equipment would have normally been a very painful thing.

This time, however, Oreo’s eyes were unfocused as she enjoyed the treatment. Drooling, her tongue was drooping and she looked as if she was about to faint from how comfortable it felt.

“All right, all right! There is no water to bathe you yet, but we will have enough water when it snows!”

Su Mo ruffled her fur for a while, then he placed Oreo aside and cleaned up the mixture of fur and weeds on the ground.

Looking at the two, fist-sized, miscellaneous clumps of fur, Su Mo became absentminded for a while.

“The first step is to, after making a claw shape with your hands, vigorously run your fingers through the fur from top to bottom until the grass falls off. The second step…”

The screen of the LCD TV was still playing tirelessly over and over again, displaying detailed text explanations and arrow pointers on the screen.

Su Mo turned his head to look at Oreo, who was slumped on the ground, and looked back at the directions displayed on the screen.

Su Mo’s eyes gradually lit up!

“With such a good thing, I’ll never have to worry about improving my production levels and quality!!!”
