To all the surviving humans, Su God had fallen silent once again after a high-profile act of "saving humanity."

On the night of the live stream, Su Mo's appearance gifted 100 Disaster Points to all viewers, causing a small climax that night.

Even after that, the moment that everyone was so happy to see, Su Mo forcefully ascended to the top, did not happen.

These lucky people who made the list are still very aware of their own limitations.

It's true that some people tried to ride the wave of trending topics, but I didn't see a single person directly mocking them!

Some speculate that Su Mo is holding back something big this time, just like last time, waiting until the crucial moment to suddenly start a live stream that will shock the entire wasteland.

Some speculate that Su Mo, as a "senior," is giving younger generations more opportunities, allowing more people to go live and receive airdrop rewards in the early stages.

Some fat otaku, obsessed with butter, even boldly guessed that Su Mo was sitting on the boat, embracing his harem of thousands of beauties, enjoying a life of pleasure that ordinary refugees could never imagine.

What's absurd is that this argument wasn't rejected by everyone; on the contrary, it gained some popularity.

Of course, what they certainly didn't know was that Su Mo, who was on the Hope at that moment, was experiencing a bittersweet mix of pain and pleasure!

"Iron Treasure Chest, Iron Treasure Chest, open it for me!"

Unlock another treasure chest, watch as the chest slowly disappears, and a Lithium Battery appears on the ground.

Su Mo rubbed his aching back and struggled to his feet.

Behind Su Mo, more than 120 of the 136 Iron Treasure Chest had been opened, and the previously empty warehouse floor was now piled with various miscellaneous items.

With drop rates plummeting these days, the items in treasure chests are no longer what they used to be, though occasionally you can still find valuable items like crafting table blueprints.

Parts, food, tools, small finished products.

The contents of the Iron Treasure Chest are not as good as those of gold and silver, but they are not worthless compared to the Wooden Treasure Chest.

Although you might occasionally get one or two items that are somewhat impressive, overall, they're still not enough for Su Mo at this stage!

Taking out the Shan Hai Painting card to relieve the soreness in his back, Su Mo patiently squatted down again and repeated the tedious unpacking action.

Soon, after opening all 136 Iron Treasure Chest, Su Mo immediately turned his attention to the 87 Copper Treasure Chest! Compared to opening the Iron Treasure Chest, Su Mo's mood was finally high this time, and he also had a hint of desire for good things in his mind.

Unfortunately, after opening ten Copper Treasure Chest in a row, Su Mo's luck, which had been awful, suddenly struck again after a long period of inactivity.

Good grief, I could tolerate it if you opened a Copper Treasure Chest and gave me ten bags of rice.

But getting two bottles of mineral water is just ridiculous!

In today's world where drop rates have plummeted, a single Copper Treasure Chest represents the elite class among the alien races.

If they knew that the Life-Buying Money was just two bottles of mineral water, I wonder what their expressions would be.

"My current bad luck is just a prelude to what's to come. Don't panic, I still have silver, and gold!"

"Even if all the Copper Treasure Chest are useless, it doesn't matter. As long as you get a high-value item from the Gold Treasure Chest, sacrificing these Copper Treasure Chest is a huge win!"

To ordinary wasteland refugees, Su Mo felt no regret about the precious Copper Treasure Chest.

Furthermore, Su Mo knew that his previous luck was almost too good, equivalent to getting a miracle every time he drew a single item.

If we calculate based on that output rate, the humans in the wasteland would all be rolling in money and chasing after alien races.

Now, these ordinary supplies and ordinary blueprints are probably what the Iron Treasure Chest should truly look like.

Take a break when you get tired of driving, and then continue driving.

Along the way, Su Mo even connected with Connie's core with great interest and took a look at the alien's chat panel.

As expected, it remained very peaceful here.

The deaths of more than 20,000 alien races were like a pebble thrown into the ocean, causing no ripples whatsoever.

Among these discussions about different races, the one mentioned most frequently at this time was:

The Golden Haired Lion King has ended his live stream!

But the truth is, none of the alien races who knew the inside story went to the World Channel to answer these people's questions.

Even the Five Great Royal Clans, on this extraordinary day, unusually refrained from starting a live stream to further solidify their authority.

They vanished as if they had disappeared overnight.

Those staunch royalists, unusually, did not dare to mock the Au tribe or the Golden Haired Lion King today; they all shut their mouths and remained silent like mute men.

Su Mo was not particularly moved by this.

No other reason than that, it was expected! The alien team that went to hunt down Su Old Devil fell at the hands of the Golden Haired Lion King. If word got out, it would be a question of whether the Ocean God Hunting Plan could still be carried out.

The reputation and credibility of the Five Great Royal Clans will plummet to their lowest point in the history of alien races in an instant! They will create history, create the future, and create a record that is unprecedented and will never be repeated.

Until Su Old Devil and the Golden Haired Lion King are completely dealt with, they will be nailed to the pillar of shame of the royal family and suffer the ridicule of others.

It's not impossible that even the real "big shots" behind the royal family might stop investing after learning of the failure of this operation.

Naturally, they dared not speak out and could only silently swallow this bitter pill.

"I reckon these members of the royal family still don't know my true identity. This is getting interesting!"

"In the future, the identities of the Golden Haired Lion King Clan might actually come in handy again, and it's not impossible that they could completely throw the alien races into chaos!"

With a smile, Su Mo closed the Game Panel and continued opening boxes.

The Five Great Royal Clans did not want these ordinary alien races to know about the foolish thing they had done, and wanted the Ocean Hunting Plan to proceed as scheduled to make up for the losses.

Similarly, Su Mo had the same idea.

Currently, all humans cannot even adapt to the rocking motion at sea. If the plan goes wrong, ordinary alien races will feel they have no future and will only be able to go to the New Continent and then attack humans in a frenzy.

Without a doubt, even without waiting for ten days, the human population will likely be reduced by more than a third within two or three days.

On the contrary, it was at the critical moment when a great war was about to begin, after all of humanity had gained a certain level of combat capability.

Revealing the truth about this battle might actually trigger a devastating attack.

Su Mo clearly understood what was important and what was not, and he also had a long-term vision.

Meanwhile, Su Mo opened all the Copper Treasure Chest under his command while he was pondering.

Instead of rushing to open the Silver Box, they transported all the extracted resources to their designated locations in the warehouse according to their attributes.

Su Mo strode to the shower room on the first floor, turned on the water heater, and took a hot shower.

Unlike bronze and iron chests, even Silver Box, are true treasures!

Others may not know, but Su Mo felt grateful every night as he fell asleep for his courageous decision on the second day in the wasteland! In the first crucial Silver Box, he not only found Psionic Crystal and Oreo, but also the blueprint to unlock the All-Matter Engine.

It was this Silver Box that allowed Su Mo to progress many times faster than others from the very beginning.

Now, after a thorough bath and changing into a new set of clothes, Su Mo's heart stirred as he looked at the 48 Silver Treasure Chest laid out before him, and he slowly placed his hand on them.

Like a Old Daoist thief, Su Mo's lock-picking skills were incredibly proficient, and he opened the Silver Box in just six seconds.

"Very good, it's not an object, it's a design drawing!"

There was no big win, which was expected. At the same time, Su Mo was also full of anticipation for being able to continue accumulating luck and keeping it in the gold chest.

Releasing his grip, Su Mo picked up the design drawing that had appeared on the ground. He slightly activated his system to scan and examine it, and then revealed a delighted expression.

[Fine Pliers Design Drawing (Excellent)]

[Description]: This is a design drawing documenting the manufacturing method of an advanced tool pliers. By strictly adhering to its material specifications and manufacturing requirements, you will obtain a high-quality, handy tool. [Application Scenario]: Workbench

[Restriction 1]: Must be manually crafted by the player.

[Restriction ②]: The production scenario must be the corresponding workbench.

[Comment]: It's not unreasonable for us boatmen to carry a 14-kilogram wrench with us, is it?

After creating the first workbench, Su Mo kept an eye on its subsequent upgrades.

Unfortunately, there are plenty of sellers offering high-quality Work Module and Experiment Module in the Trading Market.

However, I couldn't find a single tool that was at or above the excellent level!

So much so that before setting sail, all the tools on the workbench were still unfinished, marked with two large "simple" characters.

"I never understood why no one sold advanced tools before, but now I realize that the real problem is that people have design drawings but can't actually make them!"

The first attempt at opening the Silver Treasure Chest went well, and Su Mo didn't waste any time. After moving it aside, he started opening more chests.

This time, unless the contents of the box emitted any strange light, Su Mo chose to collect them, set them aside, and move on to the next box.

Compared to the bronze and iron chests, this time the game didn't play the "dog" and didn't dare to limit the drop rate of Silver Treasure Chest.

Even after opening all 48 treasure chests, Su Mo still hadn't found any food or supplies.

Similarly, they didn't manage to open any of the useless junk.

"Let me count, the haul from the Silver Treasure Chest is quite impressive, a total of..."

"19 design drawings, 11 small tools, 8 props, 1 rare High-Power Charger, 4 coupons, and 5 consumables."

"Not bad, not bad!"

Each item found in the Silver Treasure Chest has its own unique effect, but at this moment, Su Mo put aside the thought of compiling statistics.

With nearly 300 boxes opened, and just as he was about to open the Gold Treasure Chest, an indescribable feeling suddenly surged into Su Mo's heart.

It felt like Sixth Sense, or perhaps a form of self-comfort.

Standing up, Su Mo examined all the remaining Gold Treasure Chest, took two steps forward, and directly pulled out the fourth one.

It seemed as if a voice was loudly proclaiming:

This treasure chest definitely contains something amazing! Having acquired ownership of all the chests, at this exciting moment, Su Mo chose to follow his heart, taking the chest in his hands and opening it directly in mid-air.

The next second, as the lock on the box was released, a Golden Light, which did not disappoint Su Mo, suddenly burst forth through the slowly opening gap!

The gold color isn't flashy or eye-catching!

It's like the sun suddenly emerging from the clouds in the biting cold of winter.

So heartwarming!

Su Mo's tightly clenched lips finally couldn't help but reveal a slight smile! He yanked open the box, letting the Golden Light inside burst forth for a few seconds. After the box disappeared, a card appeared in Su Mo's hand.

Unlike the resource cards I've obtained before, the designs on these cards are completely unfamiliar.

Instead of using the system appraisal for this novel item, Su Mo paid some Disaster Points and selected the Game Panel for detailed appraisal.

Just like the novelty of seeing a resource card for the first time.

The next second, as the card's attributes appeared, Su Mo's eyes widened as he looked over.

But upon seeing this, Su Mo couldn't help but exclaim in surprise:

"Holy crap, this actually works!"

"That's so unfair!"
