My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 200: Infinite Hope! Undying Heart!

The illusory image of Wu Feiguang’s shelter’s core was larger than that of ordinary shelters Su Mo had encountered, and a ray of light representing a “transcendent blessing” could also be seen emanating from it.

At the top of the turtle armor, under Wu Feiguang’s deliberate manipulation, hundreds of entwined silk threads could be seen, connecting with the heads of the shelter’s population.

Of course, when Su Mo took a closer look at the silk threads, Zhong Qingshu’s was not included.

“Yes, big brother Su, I was the one who opened and received this talisman but, in the hands of Leader Wu, it exhibits a different attribute.”

“During the blizzard disaster, the next disaster reflected on the talisman paper was a big wave and all landmass…”

“Disappeared overnight…”

Whoosh!

This incident was originally top-secret information in the Candlelight Shelter, and there were only a few insiders who were aware of this.

Other than Chen Shen and Wu Feiguang, even Qi Qin, the Candlelight Shelter’s hunting captain, only knew bits of information, and Zhong Qingshu had also been kept in the dark.

At this moment, when everyone heard Chen Shen’s words, even with strict disciplinary measures in place, there was an uproar among the people.

“A flood! If there is no land, what should we do? Our surroundings are basically flat plans and there are no mountains, so we can only wait for death!”

“Build a ship, hurry up and build a ship, otherwise the next disaster will arrive and we will all die!”

“First there was a blizzard and now, after the snow melts, there is going to be a flood. Is mankind going to perish?”

…

“Silence!”

Seeing that the voices of the people were getting louder and louder, and that everyone was getting more and more flustered, Wu Feiguang turned his head and yelled.

The following scene showcased the legitimacy of the effort that the four people undertook to build and manage such a “huge” shelter. Hearing Wu Feiguang’s instruction, everyone immediately shut up like it was a conditioned reflex.

“At ease, attention, eyes left! From left to right, everyone, count off!”

Even though they had a thousand things to say in their hearts, after reporting their count, the crowd calmed down.

“Why are all of you panicking, even if the sky is falling down, Almighty Su will hold it up. Did you forget how we survived the last blizzard?”

“Who did we count on? You? Or you?” With his finger, he swept across the most ferocious middle-aged men who had just yelled out earlier. Wu Feiguang’s expression became cold as he looked at these people lowering their heads in shame.

“The shelter has its own rules and, if you don’t wish to abide by these rules, you can go your separate ways. You can tend to your own concerns and leave me to my affairs.”

“Stand to my left if you are willing to live with Almighty Su. If you don’t want to live and wish to die, or if you want to escape by yourself, stand to my right!”

Listening to Wu Feiguang’s outburst, the people looked at each other with dazed expressions and, shortly after, they took a very synchronized step…

To the left!

No one wanted to die. After traversing and experiencing over 20 days in the doomsday wasteland, those who had survived or joined the shelter were those who had the determination and will to live!

Hearing Wu Feiguang’s words, and looking at the well-equipped Su Mo and the huge excavator behind him, everyone recovered from their stupor and cast their expectant eyes on Su Mo’s face.

‘A group of smart people. No wonder they can form such a team in the doomsday wasteland with such great management skills.’

Under the mask, Su Mo raised his chin slightly, affirming Wu Feiguang’s “performance” of uniting everyone.

Seeing that Su Mo did not respond, Wu Feiguang sensibly and respectfully handed the talisman paper to Chen Shen.

“Big brother Su, this is the piece of talisman paper. The brothers don’t know how to use it, and they can only judge things from the image on the talisman paper. The last time it showed snow, and this time it shows a flood. As for the welfare disaster… it didn’t show!”

Following Chen Shen’s words, Su Mo cast his gaze on this magical talisman paper.

Sure enough, in Chen Shen’s hand, water patterns flashed across the yellowed talisman paper.

Through the talisman paper, Su Mo seemed to see a flood covering the sky and earth, swallowing all the unknowing creatures that were still on the land.

Human beings were running and fleeing, mutant creatures were wailing, and the desperate foreign races were also feeble and struggling on the line of life and death.

This flood was just like Noah’s Ark in the Bible, and it could even be traced back to modern movies. It was just as terrifying as the flood in the movie 2012.

When the nest is overturned, no eggs would stay unbroken.

Before Su Mo could see what the ending of the flood was, the scene stopped abruptly, and Chen Shen’s face appeared in his sight again.

“Big brother Su, take this talisman. The brothers are really afraid that looking at it too much will affect their mentality. With the blizzard, everyone could still survive by relying on clothes and torches. However, when this flood comes, if we don’t have tangible anti-disaster measures, I’m afraid…”

As he was speaking, Chen Shen handed over the talisman paper in his hand, and traces of terror still shrouded his eyes.

Since ancient times, every major flood recorded in history has always had disastrous outcomes for humankind.

Flood not only represented an irresistible force of nature but, even after the flood subsided, there would also be food shortage crises and epidemics on a massive scale.

Had it not been for the welfare disaster triggered by Su Mo this time, it is likely that, after the blizzard and flood disasters, humans…

Would not exist!

Su Mo took the talisman paper in Chen Shen’s hand and resisted the desire to use the system to scan it. With a thought, Su Mo kept it in the storage space.

Fear would ferment over time and, similarly, courage would multiply with the number of people!

Looking at the hundreds of pairs of eyes with expectant gazes in front of him, Su Mo lifted his mask, revealing a young but heroic face underneath.

Although it was not the first time they had seen Su Mo’s avatar in the “add friend” interface, at this moment, seeing the real person, everyone was left in a trance.

He was too young; perhaps the oldest estimate would only be about 24!

His age did not match up to his achievements. Whether it was his combat strength or various abilities or equipment at his disposal, they were all matters that were beyond everyone’s imagination.

Seeing the four prison guards step back sensibly to stand with everyone, Su Mo smiled then turned around, and jumped up onto the King Kong’s step bar and stood there.

“I know that everyone is very afraid of the impending flood, fearing that our homes will be wiped out in an instant under the disastrous torrent.”

Although it was his first time speaking in front of so many people, at this moment, a wave of pride rushed out of Su Mo’s heart!

These things had to be done regardless of whether he was leading ten people or hundreds of people!

If the number of people was low, then he would take on the matter himself, regardless of its gravity and scale!

If the number of people was high, then he could divide the manpower and overcome the matter by taking it on bit by bit!

The people underneath were still silent, especially while Su Mo was speaking, even Zhong Qingshu’s beautiful eyes flashed, seeming to discover a different side of Su Mo once again.

“I want to ask everyone present… Who knows when the next flood disaster will arrive? Is it in 3 days, 30 days, or 300 days?”

To raise the spirit of an army, one could not just write a blank check. First, one would have to start from the source of everyone’s fear and eliminate the despair.

Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, the people who were jittery and a little desperate were immediately awakened by Su Mo, and they sheepishly rubbed the backs of their heads.

Yeah, what was the big deal about the impending flood?

What if the flood comes after dozens, or even hundreds, of days?

According to the previous standards, had it not been for the welfare disaster, the interval between each disaster would become progressively longer and longer.

If there was one month, or even two months, with the food harvested from this welfare disaster, it would not be a big problem to survive through the flood disaster period!

Su Mo glanced at the hundred-strong crowd, whose sense of desperation was gradually dwindling. The four prison guards were also shocked.

It was a difficult topic, so they could only hide the news to prevent fear from spreading.

However, hearing Su Mo’s words, hope for everyone’s future had awakened, and the indomitable spirit also surged in their hearts to overcome the flood!

Without waiting for them to react, Su Mo silently formed a fist with his right hand and, watching the expressions of the people, his next words were roared out like a battle cry.

“We are the human race! We have wisdom and we have hard-working hands! As long as the disaster does not come tomorrow, we will live on today!”

“When the blizzard comes, we will build warmer rooms and heating facilities!”

“If plants grow wildly, we will open up more land, plant more crops, and accumulate supplies for several years at once!”

“When the flood comes, we will build dams, move to safety, and build boats!”

“What kind of disaster could beat us, and on what basis can we be defeated? As long as hope is present, everyone here can live well and wait until we return to Earth!”

“Infinite hope! Return to Earth!” Seeing that Su Mo had ended his speech, Chen Shen was the first to stand up. He stood in front of the crowd, raised his arm, and shouted. His face was full of enthusiasm.

“Infinite hope! Return to Earth!”

“Infinite hope! Return to Earth!”

The courage of the remaining refugees was also awakened at this time. All of them looked excited as they raised their arms above their heads and began to cheer loudly.

This lasted for a minute. The voices did not diminish, but rather became louder. Standing on King Kong’s step bar, Su Mo stretched out his hands and gestured slightly in the air.

Immediately, all the people stopped cheering and began to work in earnest.

“Okay! Immediate attention and action!”

“Now, can the three people who can drive the excavator step forward?”

The three middle-aged men whom Chen Shen had mentioned before stepped forward and stood in front of the crowd.

“The three of you, take turns operating the excavator. Today’s goal is to try and clear up 50 acres of land for me. Do you have the confidence to accomplish this?”

Fifty acres was not a small number. If they had tractors and rotary tillers, this number would naturally not be a problem.

However, the excavator was a construction machine after all, with only the huge bucket being usable for clearing work. This was a test of skill and aptitude for the drivers.

“Yes! Almighty Su, we have the confidence!”

A middle-aged man in his thirties responded loudly almost instantly, and the other two also shouted after, unwilling to stay behind.

“Okay, that’s what I’ve been waiting to hear. Come up and get in the vehicle. Prepare yourselves to operate the excavator, and don’t waste time.”

“The others, according to their previous assignments, carry out the first batch of fertilizer composting preparations. Don’t stay idle and start moving.”

Su Mo jumped off King Kong’s step bar and watched as everyone started to disperse, rushing to their respective posts. Su Mo nodded in satisfaction and stood to the side, lazily leaning against the tree beside Zhong Qingshu.

“Not bad, Almighty Su~“
