Three Thousand Kilometers, Gully Turns Thoroughfare!
The sky over the wasteland is always surprisingly good, barring any disasters or special circumstances.
The temperature across the entire sea area is such that the sun diligently climbs above the horizon and begins to shine from six in the morning.
This continues for six hours, and by noon, the perceived temperature over the ocean will rise sharply, reaching a terrifying 36 degrees Celsius.
At such temperatures, apart from the occasional small cloud drifting across the sky and bringing some shade below, there is almost nowhere on the sea surface that can block out the sun.
Even migratory birds flying over the sea often fly dozens of kilometers, squawking in the heat, yet still struggle to find a place to rest.
But today, these migratory birds are enjoying themselves!
In their limited field of vision, a colossal object appeared at the edge of the sea, offering not only a place to rest but also a chance to hitch a ride.
Under the sun's rays, the sea looked vast and blue, its surface shimmering with light.
But about a third of the giant object in the distance was pitch black, as if even the light hated it and wanted to drive it away.
This unusual phenomenon did not frighten the migratory birds; on the contrary, it made them flap their wings faster.
They couldn't wait to rest.
However, the speed at which the giant moved was clearly beyond their imagination; it arrived before them in less than three minutes.
A ship?
Before the migratory birds could think twice, just as they landed on the bow of the boat, a large net suddenly descended from the sky and caught them all.
"Captain, Captain, I've caught another flock of birds flying by, seven of them!"
Trapped in the net, the migratory birds could only squawk and resist, while at the same time they saw clearly that their captor was a bear.
A bear radiating joy from head to toe! "Hey, Moore, how many times have I told you? These birds aren't good. Didn't I roast one for you yesterday? You threw it all to Li Li."
"Didn't I say I'd catch you a big fish today to satisfy your craving? Now release them!"
Seeing Moore making a ruckus on the Main Deck, Su Mo could only helplessly peek out from the Captain's Cabin and call out to him.
Upon hearing this, Moore chuckled twice, then loosened his grip and the net opened.
All the migratory birds trapped inside hurriedly flew out again, landing on the railing in the distance, watching Moore warily.
But Moore just scratched his head, still grinning and imitating the cawing of migratory birds, continuing to tease the flock.
Standing in the Captain's Cabin on the third floor, Su Mo knew that Moore didn't want to catch the bird.
Instead, his life as a first mate was becoming increasingly mundane! Now, all told, it had been four days since the Hope set sail, and two and a half days had passed since the last battle with 20,000 alien races.
In the past two and a half days, the Hope has traveled more than 3,000 kilometers in long-distance travel mode.
Hope Village, the core of which is located in a low-lying area, has been left far behind. Even when I called Chen Shen early this morning, there was static when the call was connected.
As expected, the arduous journey across the wasteland ocean went smoothly for more than two days, to the point that even Su Mo couldn't believe it.
He had worried that he might encounter countless inconsiderate alien races on the ocean, or some uncontrollable situation that would waste time and lead to an accident.
After all, although he had the system's help, it was still a day short of two months from when he was a normal person after transmigrating to the wasteland!
Whether it's the plots in movies or novels on Earth, he simply cannot imagine how he could sail a boat and successfully cross more than 10,000 kilometers to pick up his sister on the Other Shore.
As it turns out, difficulty often stems from ignorance, from humanity's innate fear of the unknown.
Having seen the unknown clearly, even Gully Turns Thoroughfare! At this rate, let alone ten days or half a month, we only need nine more days to successfully rendezvous with the Tundra, which is heading to the 3rd war zone.
"Captain, Captain, please give Moore some work to do! Moore wants to fight! Moore wants to fire the cannons!"
After playing with the migratory birds for a while, I watched as Su Mo remained by the window, quietly watching the sea rushing past.
Moore started doing a funny belly dance, which made Oreo, who was also lying on the deck of the second-floor conference room, basking in the sun, laugh twice.
Unlike ordinary Erha, Oreo's interests became increasingly peculiar after he became Dog God.
Every day during its rest time, the Hope goes swimming in the sea, and during the daytime it takes three hours of sunbathing without fail; these have become its daily routines.
Fortunately, the alien soldiers, who were being trained by Connie and were sweating profusely at the rear of the deck, were unaware that the true god of the Oreo race was Oreo.
Otherwise, one's faith will shatter and one's resolve will crumble on the spot.
"Wait, there's still an hour and a half left. The Hope will stop for an hour, and then I'll take you out to sea."
"Perhaps marine life has descended upon this place!"
After opening the porthole and tossing a bottle of chilled soda down to Moore through the glass, Su Mo also felt thirsty. He picked up half a chilled watermelon, jumped down from the porthole, and landed steadily on the deck.
For an ordinary person to achieve such a visually stunning landing, they must learn parkour and how to deflect force.
But given Su Mo's terrifying physical abilities, which have now reached 51 points, this impact is nothing more than a drizzle; his legs wouldn't even go numb.
Scoop out two spoonfuls and place them where migratory birds can peck at them.
Holding the remaining watermelon, Su Mo walked to the flag on the bow of the ship and lay down on the beach chair that had been placed there.
Here, even lying down, Su Mo can have a panoramic view of the sea ahead.
In addition, the beach chair has the special ability to adjust the temperature and simulate the most suitable and comfortable environment.
The bow of the ship undoubtedly became Su Mo's favorite spot on the entire Hope, where he spent the most time.
"Gonggong, remotely control the Firepower King to check for any abnormal energy points within a 200-kilometer radius!"
Pressing the Bluetooth Headset, Su Mo scooped out the sweetest part of the watermelon, and mumbled indistinctly as he chewed, juice splashing everywhere.
The Firepower King" is the first point on the Hope that Su Mo would modify after the Survival Points reached 50,000!
After the battle with the alien race, Su Mo discovered many shortcomings in the previous Fire Control Radar.
First, it can only detect things on the sea surface within 50 kilometers, and when marking and tracking a single target, it will consume Gonggong's computing power drastically, which is incredibly stupid.
Secondly, seawater is electrolyzed and contains a large number of ions, such as potassium ions, sodium ions, and chloride ions. These ions can absorb a large number of Electromagnetic Wave, greatly reducing the propagation distance of Electromagnetic Wave.
Furthermore, water can absorb, refract, and reflect a large amount of radar waves during their propagation, making it even more difficult for Electromagnetic Wave to detect them on the seabed.
Before the Firepower King was upgraded, Fire Control Radar in the 1970s could only operate at a depth of three to five meters below the sea surface, and it often made inexplicable errors, making it difficult to be effective in actual combat.
Third, the measurement range! In order to ensure the Hope's concealment on the sea and the safety of its navigation route, Su Mo had previously set up a plan to avoid living creatures.
However, the 50-kilometer range of the Fire Control Radar is often reduced to less than 40 kilometers by the time the radar detects the target and sends a feedback signal, given the Hope's speed and the need to replan the route.
At this point, Gonggong had to control the Hope, either taking a detour or slowing down, which was extremely troublesome.
Based on these three pain points, I checked Gonggong's operation log early the next morning.
Su Mo simply waved his hand and took out a full 28,000 points, plus a small portion brought from Hope Village and most of the materials obtained from treasure chests, and upgraded the item.
This upgrade not only improved the overall completion rate of the Hope by 5%, but also brought it up to 38%.
It also increased the monitoring range of the Firepower King from 50 kilometers to 200 kilometers, and provided the Hope with a simple sonar detection device.
This sonar device is quite sophisticated; it can detect organisms up to 45 kilometers away and 600 meters deep underwater.
Furthermore, upon upgrading Firepower King to Excellent level, a crucial new attribute appears: Energy Detection! [Dear Captain Su Mo, no energy fluctuations have been detected in Firepower King.]
[Enable low-power mode to continuously monitor energy response within a 200km radius]
"Activate!"
Hearing the familiar reply again, Su Mo felt anxious, but he suppressed his emotions and spoke slowly.
Now that the first marine disaster has passed, the second marine life invasion is quietly approaching.
At this pace, the ruins will gradually reopen to access before the third tsunami strikes.
Su Mo has already met all the requirements for upgrading the shelter to level 5, including both Survival Points and physical fitness. He only needs to enter the shelter one last time to remotely complete the upgrade.
At that time, preparations will begin for everything from machine tool manufacturing to Rocket Propelled Grenades and missiles for vertical launch systems.
Once he possesses these, let alone Land Alien Race, even if they unite with Ocean Alien Race, Su Mo will not be intimidated in the slightest.
But at this moment, being stuck by such a condition, after a slight feeling of frustration, Su Mo quickly adjusted his mood and continued to lie on the chair, eating melons and browsing the world chat channel to relieve his loneliness.
From now until nine days from now, all the Ocean Alien Race will descend one after another.
However, within 72 hours, a staggering 575 trillion tons of marine byproducts will enter the site first, creating a reasonable ecological cycle.
Judging from the comments on the World Channel, many places have already started to experience "fish explosions" due to the uncertainty of the release rules, while other places are like the area where Su Mo passed by, where there is nothing but aquatic plants!
After watching everyone's chat in the World Channel for a while, Su Mo followed his usual habit from the past few days and switched directly to the Disaster Resistance Channel.
Compared to the nationwide frenzy on the first day, although three or four days have passed, the large-scale shelters on the ocean still have no way to improve their completion rate, and the channel is still dominated by solo players.
But since last night, the atmosphere on the channel has suddenly become strange. It's no longer about explaining marine disaster relief or studying ships.
Everyone was doing the same thing: fishing!
Those with diabetes, step back! Don't let these sea fish get a taste of sweetness!
"Wild Forest, Today We'll Take You on a First-Person Exploration of the Underwater World"
"Accepting the challenge from across the internet, current status: 13 hours, 5 sea bass, 11 yellow croakers"
"I'll agree to anything you say! Just stop fishing, okay? Get out, get out here swimming!"
"Shocking! Come quick! The fisherman never comes home empty-handed! I've pulled three Wooden Treasure Chest out of the sea in a row!"
"Raft Tier 2: The Strongest Raft in the Wasteland - A Must-Watch Livestream"
Quickly get started! A step-by-step guide to obtaining a permanent title that increases dizziness resistance! A lifesaver against seasickness!
"Huh? Someone actually got a permanent title that can reduce dizziness?"
Su Mo was lying on the beach chair, leisurely reading all sorts of bizarre headlines.
But when his gaze fell on the fourth-to-last live stream, which was ranked 26th, he was so shocked that he sat up abruptly!
To this day, even Su Mo himself has not figured out the concept of titles.
Whether it's advancing from a horticultural level to an advanced level, one can become a "Diligent Gardener".
It was obtained by killing the Tengu Pseudo-God Godslayer.
Regardless of whether these two titles are useful or not, just considering the methods of obtaining them, they are basically hopeless for ordinary people in this lifetime.
But now, someone has actually discovered a way to obtain a permanent title that can be taught, and it can also add a stun attribute.
"After four days of acclimatization, although all humans have developed resistance, they are still far from being able to exert combat power at sea!"
"If this title is something anyone can get, and it even increases stun value, then this person's actions truly deserve to be called heroic!"
With a joyful heart, after telling Gonggong not to disturb him unless necessary, Su Mo's heart sank and he entered the live broadcast room directly.
(ps: The following is free) Brothers, I have some big news. The overseas version of the book "Shelter" has Starting Point on Qidian in Shanghai. Brothers who have connections can go and check it out. It already has 550,000 reads, which is more than Qidian. com (facepalm).
Although it hasn't received rave reviews, it has already reached number 41 on the popularity list with only forty chapters, sandwiched between a group of books with four or five hundred or even a thousand chapters, which is nothing short of a miracle!
Moreover, the overseas translation version is basically number one in sales and readership among books published around the same time. Looking at it this way, we must do a good job in this cultural export. Especially when I saw the comparison between China and foreign countries in Chapter 25, and all the foreigners in the comments section were nodding with envy and saying they wanted to be Chinese, that moment was just so satisfying!
