The World Turned Upside Down, Bright Light Shelter
Shock!
Roll!
After the name of Bright Light Plain was uttered, the earth beneath their feet seemed to connect with the dog's head in the sky, merging together, and an immense power trembled back and forth.
At the same time, after the dog's head in the sky was completely solidified and connected with heaven and earth, Su Mo's vision suddenly went black.
When he opened his eyes, he found himself in another space! "This... this is the entire wasteland?!"
Just like the space I entered using the level one costume card before, a glimmer of light suddenly rose from the endless darkness.
When Su Mo reached the light, he was surprised to find a long corridor.
"The sky is round and the earth is square; the wasteland is actually shaped like a round sky and a square earth!"
Unlike the azure Earth, with the help of the Shan Hai Painting cards, Su Mo briefly saw the general outline of the current wasteland plain.
Except for a small area covered by lush vegetation, the vast majority of the land is grayish-white, as if it has been subjected to the most terrifying radiation. It is difficult to see any blue tributaries on the land.
The next second, just as Su Mo was about to examine it more closely, a powerful memory transmission burst out from the map and rushed into Su Mo's mind.
"Such vast mountain ranges and geological formations occupy only one-tenth of the wasteland continent, yet within this one-tenth, humans and countless alien creatures can coexist."
"I only have one-tenth of the authority to modify it, and within that one-tenth, I can create a river that runs from north to south."
"At the same time, we can also choose to extend the river downstream to create a well that could be millions of kilometers deep, storing trillions of tons of incalculable freshwater."
"Opportunities come only once, and energy is finite, but just because I chose to create rivers doesn't mean I can't create mountains."
The memory contains general information about the map in front of me, as well as how to use permissions to create rivers and mountains.
After a while, as Su Mo finished accepting everything, the map began to slowly unfold.
The creation method is not difficult. According to the memory, this card has a total energy of 10,000 points. Including the points used and absorbed by the Abyss Winged Dragon, there are still 9,980 points left! Each action will consume one point. The more it is modified, the more points are consumed.
As for the direction and method of the transformation, it will naturally be set by Su Mo! Extending his hands, he sensed the spread of Su Mo's thoughts, and the map naturally changed, bringing him to the sky above the Bright Light Plain.
From here, Su Mo can look down from the sky at himself and Zhong Qingshu, who are now trapped in a state of time freeze, from an extremely strange angle.
Without even thinking, a single glance will bring everything within a hundred miles into one's mind.
Trying to observe the distance more closely, Su Mo noticed that the energy points were dropping rapidly, so he quickly looked away.
"Checking out areas I've already been to doesn't cost any points, but outside of that area, it costs one point per kilometer!"
With just a slight glance, hundreds of points disappeared from the panel, but at the same time, Su Mo diligently memorized the terrain within a 300-kilometer radius.
"How amazing! This space is more like a four-dimensional space. Standing here, I can manipulate time and space!"
Su Mo poked the ground with his hand, looked at the sunken pit, and chuckled, his playful side stirring within him.
The transformation took a full three hours. Looking at the terrain below, Su Mo calmly began his leisurely creation!
First, the terrain of the Bright Light Plain was flattened. Su Mo then rolled it several times to completely flatten the undulating areas nearby.
Meanwhile, solid stones were taken from the ground beneath the two wooden houses and used to raise the ground level.
The elevated area covers a full fifty square kilometers, occupying a large part of the Bright Light Plain.
The dozens of players within the designated area were all neatly placed in the distance by Su Mo, who casually dug up their foundations, turning it into a small Gathering Place.
Within the foundation area, as clods of earth and rocks from other places flew in, the terrain visibly began to become strange.
It's as if this place rose up out of thin air, looking completely out of place with its surroundings.
"The 40-meter-high foundation is complete; the next step is to renovate the surrounding environment."
With a elevation increase of forty meters, it is not afraid of floods at all.
With the terrain set up to be nearly vertical on three sides, behind the machete, three steep mountains rose up from the ground and surrounded the terrain behind the machete.
These three mountains are steeper than the last, with almost no place to put your feet.
On the only empty side, Su Mo created a gentle mountain slope.
The mountain used for entry is full of jagged rocks, and apart from a straight path leading up the middle, there is no other way to get up the mountain.
"We have the foundation, we have the mountains, now it's time for the water!"
Su Mo had already planned out the creation of the water source and did not hesitate much. A wellhead appeared, with a deep pit about the size of an acre.
Outside the deep pit, there is an opening about one meter wide. Following the opening, four winding rivers flow through all accessible areas within a 20-square-kilometer area.
After reconnecting the end of the river back to the wellhead, Su Mo looked at the masterpiece that was already taking shape and began the final touches.
The terrain should be flat where it should be flat, and undulations should be created where they are needed, using energy to create natural stone defensive barriers.
Near the two wooden houses, they cleared out a ten-acre plot of land by hand.
Of course, Su Mo also did not forget the most important place: the warehouse for storing items.
On a 50-square-kilometer site, within a mountain built of stone, interconnected yet independent caves were constructed to serve as warehouses.
Although the Shan Hai Painting card can only open up one mountain, with Su Mo's wasteful use, it only consumed 700 energy points after completing all the actions.
"There are still a little over nine thousand points left. Let's convert all of these points into water!"
Facing the well opening, which was about the size of an acre, Su Mo clenched his right fist and poured all his energy into it in an instant.
Then, darkness fell again, and when Su Mo opened his eyes and could see, he had already returned to the world within the Time Ruins.
The sun has reappeared in the pitch-black sky.
It was as if the phantom dog head that had appeared earlier was all just a figment of imagination; it came quickly and went even faster.
"What just happened?! What just happened?!"
Before the transformation even began, Zhong Qingshu, looking tense after experiencing the dramatic changes in the world, quickly ran behind Su Mo, ready to run away with Su Mo at any moment!
"I just made a wish, and I hope your current dream comes true!"
"Then I hope that when that time comes, you will agree to it."
"Um?"
Su Mo was taken aback.
He was about to retort when, before he could utter a word, the ground beneath his feet suddenly began to shake violently.
The vibration, in less than a second, instantly evolved from level three or four to level eight or nine.
Apart from the plain where the two stood, everything else visible to the naked eye began to sway like waves, as if condemned by the heavens.
Cracks appeared on the earth, only to be forcibly healed by a mysterious force.
Holding Su Mo tightly, who seemed rooted to the ground, Zhong Qingshu's eyes were filled with shock and confusion!
In her line of sight, the location of the wooden house began to rise naturally.
One meter, two meters, until it's difficult to see the top from below, then mountains begin to appear around the terrain again.
These mountains closely surround the rising terrain, like the most loyal guardians, protecting the terrain from three directions.
This change is even more horrifying than what's depicted in movies and TV series.
Zhong Qingshu swallowed hard, her face filled with disbelief and complex emotions as she looked at the man beside her.
She wanted to find a trace of shock or confusion on Su Mo's face, just like her own.
But... she was wrong! Su Mo's face remained calm, utterly calm!
It was as if nothing in front of him could shake his calm and composed demeanor in the slightest.
"Did you do this?"
"Just some petty tricks."
"Come on, get in the car, I'll take you to see it!"
He smiled and looked at the terrain before him, which he had created entirely by himself. A sense of power, like that of a creator, filled Su Mo's heart.
If the Shan Hai Painting Card could be used every time one entered the Time Ruins, this wasteland continent would likely undergo a terrifying and drastic change in just a few times.
At that time, this place will no longer be a wasteland where everyone is in despair, but a new home full of light.
Obediently sitting on the back of Su Mo, Zhong Qingshu hugged him even tighter this time, and the dependence in her eyes was even more obvious.
Driving his motorcycle, looking at the jagged, unclimbable rocks before him, Su Mo felt even more satisfied.
Having created his own winding mountain road, he managed to ride his motorcycle to the top without much effort.
Upon reaching the Bright Light Plain, which spans fifty kilometers above, the terrain suddenly becomes flat.
With just a glance, Su Mo could see the cave warehouse directly opposite the terrain, as well as the clear stream meandering across the ground.
"Wow, we really have a river! We have enough water!"
After parking the car by the river, Su Mo watched as Zhong Qingshu ran out of the car with a look of surprise on her face and rushed into the river, jumping and skipping around. Su Mo was filled with emotion.
All things considered, even if we disregard the real world and consider the journey from Earth to this place, Su Mo has not seen a river for several months.
As for a river as clear as the one before us, we have never seen one like it on Earth.
This is a truly natural river, a river of life that has never been polluted since it was born from the void.
With it, all of humanity will be free labor before the blizzard arrives.
The supplies that billions of people could bring would be an unimaginable and terrifying harvest! "Let's go, let's check out the shelter and the surrounding environment!"
Su Mo dug four streams on the Bright Light Plain to different depths: half a meter, one meter, two meters, and five meters.
If you follow the half-meter-deep river where Zhong Qingshu is currently located upstream, you will find two small wooden houses that are together.
Behind the wooden house lies a wide and fertile plain, which, thanks to Su Mo's prior preparations, has been turned over and is ready for planting at any time.
In front of the wooden house was a small, still bare open space, reserved for planting saplings.
Even Su Mo fell in love with this place at first sight!
"Compared to Underground Shelter, here I feel more at ease, a powerful feeling that comes with invincible strength!"
Underground Shelter are for living, Bright Light Shelter are for enjoying life.
Looking at the desolation around them, Su Mo called to the excited Zhong Qingshu to go have some fun in the surrounding area, while Su Mo rode his bicycle back to the source.
The source of the fresh water is located behind the cave warehouse, bound by a powerful force that defies the laws of physics.
The water here is no longer a pure blue, but rather a terrifying black, like an abyss.
Below this, Su Mo invested a full nine thousand energy points in one go.
Even Su Mo did not know how much water these energy points generated individually.
But at least, supplying enough for everyone in the world to drink for decades or even centuries is not a problem at all.
"In the real world, because of the blizzard, everyone no longer lacks water. Even if you have so much fresh water, you won't be able to sell it for a good price."
"But within the Time Ruins, at this juncture where everyone has only been here for less than two days, it's time to let the name Su Mo resound once more across the wasteland!"
Sitting cross-legged on one side of the source, Su Mo smiled broadly and opened the trading panel, beginning an operation that only happened in his dreams!
