[Record]: Detected that the player has a complete Shelter Core, meeting the absorption conditions. Do you want to absorb it?
Looking at the words that popped up, Su Mo didn't hesitate. He focused his mind, controlled his thoughts, and selected confirm.
In an instant.
The Tortoise Shell in his hand began to vibrate violently, or more specifically, the Tortoise Shell produced... resonance!
The entire Shelter seemed to be about to jump, with small vibrations occurring one after another.
One second, two seconds... the frequency of the Shelter's vibration became closer and closer to the frequency of the Tortoise Shell's shaking in his hand.
Visibly, the Tortoise Shell began to crack and melt piece by piece, turning into a stream of blue water, leaving Su Mo's hand and sliding all the way down to the stone floor.
Boom! The earth began to tremble, and the entire Shelter shook rapidly as if it had been hit by an earthquake.
The next moment, Su Mo was stunned by the magical scene before him.
[Record]: You have successfully absorbed the damaged Shelter Core [Record]: Your Shelter area has increased [Record]: Current Shelter area is 110 square meters.
The originally familiar Shelter had now undergone a transformation, as if it had gained weight, with ten square meters appearing out of nowhere.
And in the extra space, a pile of things was neatly placed.
"Woof woof woof!"
Oreo, who was originally lying on the ground resting, now looked as if it had seen a ghost, barking wildly at the extra space and the unfamiliar smell.
Quickly walking to the extra space, Su Mo began to examine the things on the ground.
There were more than a dozen items in total.
First, there were three pieces of clothing with blood stains on them, colorful and gaudy, and he even saw a pink bear bra.
Next to the clothes were two tools, a Stone Axe and a Stone Shovel.
Compared to Su Mo, who was now rich and powerful, this person's equipment was pitifully scarce. He didn't know where they got the confidence to raid the Shelter.
Afraid of some trick or poison, Su Mo didn't dare to touch them. He cautiously used the Stone Spear to pry open the clothes, revealing the supplies underneath.
There were more than a dozen items in total.
There was beef jerky bought from the trading market on the first day, which looked like a lot, at least about 300g.
There were also four boxes of pure milk, a whole loaf of bread, two corn sausages, a yogurt, and a bottle of unopened Pepsi.
Two bottles of opened but unfinished mineral water.
"Jackpot, jackpot!"
After confirming that the attributes of the supplies were all fine using the game panel, Su Mo beamed with joy.
No wonder these people didn't choose to develop their own Shelters properly and came out to rob.
Stealing batteries is more profitable than working.
Just these supplies alone, if sold on the trading market, would be worth at least several liters of water in exchange, and there would be a high demand but no supply!
Most of the food currently sold on the market is bread that requires a lot of water to drink after eating, and dry, hard-to-swallow Mutated Beast meat.
Despite days of shopping, Su Mo had not been able to snatch this kind of "luxury" food from the market.
He didn't expect these free supply boxes to fall from the sky.
"Since merging a damaged core can increase the area by ten square meters, then I'll merge them all!"
Taking out the remaining three damaged cores, after selecting them one by one, the Shelter began to vibrate again.
[Record]: You have successfully absorbed the damaged Shelter Core*3 [Record]: Your Shelter area has increased [Record]: Current Shelter area is 140 square meters. [Record]: The Shelter level has been increased, please enter the game panel to view.
After a burst of shaking, the Shelter added a full 40 square meters of space in the same place as before. The Shelter, which was already spacious, was now even deeper.
A large pile of things was scattered on the ground, and just looking at it, Su Mo felt a sense of happiness that made him dizzy.
In the innermost part, there was a device squatting, about the size of a big-butt television.
Su Mo was very familiar with this device. It was exactly what he had been longing for, what he dreamed of at night—
A Diesel Generator!
Su Mo couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart at this moment. Like seeing a little lover, he quickly walked to the machine.
The whole body was covered with sky-blue paint.
Three thick black iron pipes surrounded the main body of the generator, and a side skirt played a role in dust prevention.
Lowering his head and seeing the main body of the generator, Su Mo's originally eager heart cooled down by half.
This was a Diesel Generator marked Wuxi Siemens. It should have been brought here by these people after killing Mutated Beasts or robbing others.
But the problem was that the fuel tank of the generator had been hit by a spear. A large piece of iron sheet was directly shoveled off, revealing the inside of the fuel tank.
Squatting in front of the generator, Su Mo began to carefully recall the principle of the generator he had seen in miscellaneous books in the university library.
It was very simple for a generator to generate electricity: In the cylinder of a diesel engine, the clean air filtered by the air filter was fully mixed with the high-pressure atomized diesel sprayed by the fuel injector. Under the compression of the upward movement of the piston, the volume was reduced, and the temperature rose rapidly, reaching the ignition point of the diesel.
The diesel was ignited, the mixed gas burned violently, and the volume expanded rapidly, pushing the piston downward, which was called 'work'.
Each cylinder worked in sequence according to a certain order, and the thrust acting on the piston was converted into the force to push the crankshaft to rotate through the connecting rod, thereby driving the crankshaft to rotate.
Installing a brushless synchronous AC generator coaxially with the crankshaft of the diesel engine could use the rotation of the diesel engine to drive the Rotor of the generator. Using the principle of 'electromagnetic induction', the generator would output an induced electromotive force, and a current could be generated through a closed load circuit.
After recalling this, Su Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, it wasn't the most important current control equipment that had broken down. If it had been hit by a knife, the generator would definitely be scrapped.
Now it was just that the fuel tank had a gap and was damaged. It could be completely repaired with a small amount of Survival Points!
Focusing his eyes and concentrating, Su Mo called out to the system in his heart and looked at the diesel engine.
[Diesel Generator (Damaged)] Efficiency: 300kw (300 degrees/h at full load) Fuel consumption: 230 grams per kilowatt-hour (82L/h at full load) Description: A Diesel Generator produced by Jiangsu Wuxi Siemens Group, not yet in use, with good circuit function and damaged fuel tank. Upgrade direction 1: Replace and repair the core components of the generator, enhance the power supply efficiency of the generator, and reduce the power consumption of the generator, requiring Survival Points (1680) Upgrade direction 2: Change the working mode of the generator to biomass power generation, requiring Survival Points (6500) Introduction: What am I to you? You are my Youlemei! No, no, no, I want to be your generator!
"Damn, it's so expensive, 1680. I have to save for ten and a half days to upgrade it!"
Shaking his head, he dismissed the crazy idea of accumulating Survival Points to upgrade the generator.
Su Mo began to call out in his heart to change the method.
Changing to a single-category small function upgrade method would slightly increase the consumption and was not as cost-effective as an overall upgrade, but in the current situation of scarce Survival Points, it was a good way to solve the urgent need.
"Expensive is expensive, as long as it can be repaired, the development speed of the Shelter will directly double."
A flash of light flashed, and the original upgrade method began to develop and change.
[Diesel Generator (Damaged)] Efficiency: 300kw (300 degrees/h at full load) Fuel consumption: 230 grams per kilowatt-hour (82L/h at full load) Upgrade: Repair (130), Expansion (50), Increase Conversion Efficiency (300), Change Material (420), Change Energy Supply Method - Biomass (4450).
"Repairing it actually costs 130."
This price was reasonable and not high, but Su Mo couldn't afford that much now.
After today's harvest, he had 153 points. After spending 20 points to upgrade the raincoat and 65 points to upgrade the Safety Passage, he only had 68 points left.
"I can only wait until tomorrow to repair it."
Suppressing the excitement and anxiety in his heart, Su Mo began to collect supplies and count the gains of this battle.
