My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

After opening the small hole that blocked the smell, the smell couldn't be suppressed and Sumo determined the ingredients almost immediately.

gunpowder!

Or more appropriately - black powder!

Carefully pouring the black particles in the stick onto the table, an extremely pungent smell of sulfur came.

"Kobolds actually need black powder to release their so-called fireball technique?"

Suddenly receiving this news, Sumo felt a little incredible.

Previously in Shelter No. 2, the warlock kobold first waved his wooden stick and then released his fireball technique.

At that time, Soma thought it was a spell-casting action or the attribute of the stick.

I never dare to think that a kobold releases a fireball and still respects science?

"So what the kobolds are looking for is black powder?"

Hearing Sumo's muttering, Oreo nodded quickly, indicating that Sumo understood everything correctly.

The kobold who was tied up in front of the table seemed to have accepted his fate after seeing Somo pouring out the black gunpowder, and continued to chirp.

I ignored the exchange between Oreo and the kobold.

Sumo clicked on the game panel, clicked on resource scanning, and checked the raw materials for preparing black powder on the resource option.

[Record]: A small sulfur mine was detected in the southeast 465 meters away from the player's current distance.

[Record]: 2/3 times today

"Sure enough, what they are looking for today is this natural sulfur mine."

There was no sadness or joy on Somo's face, and his thoughts gradually drifted into the distance.

The modern process of extracting sulfur has been innovated countless times. It has even separated the sulfide in the petroleum to produce sulfurized sewage through atmospheric and vacuum pressure, catalytic cracking, hydrocracking, delayed coking and other steps. The sulfur in the furnace is recycled and processed to produce finished sulfur.

In ancient times without this technology, people wanted to prepare sulfur:

One is to find a way to mine the natural sulfur deposits near the refuge.

The second is to smelt pyrite and extract the sulfur inside.

The ability of kobolds to judge and find sulfur deposits proves that they have reached the edge of science.

It is very likely that they already know that these things, after mixing them in a certain proportion, will make such amplified gunpowder, which will increase the power of the fireball after being catalyzed by magic.

"Woof?"

While Somo was thinking, Oreo on the other side also completed his communication with the kobold and came back.

Oreo pointed to the black gunpowder poured out by Somo again, then pointed to the distance, and finally pointed to the kobold.

"You mean he's willing to take us to where the kobold tribe mines?"

Oreo nodded.

"I have a sulfur mine here. To prepare gunpowder, you also need enough potassium nitrate, and potassium nitrate is the main component of saltpeter. Maybe the kobold tribe has discovered a large-scale saltpeter mine."

“Should we go or not?”

Sumo thought to himself, black powder is absolutely indispensable for making thermal weapon ammunition.

If the small thermal weapon tool machine could be repaired in the end, there would also be a big gap in the raw materials for ammunition.

After looking at the kobold who was still chattering, Somo walked up to him decisively and struck a stunning punch at the kobold.

"I definitely want to go. Let's not talk about other things. Just talk about the treasure chests exploded by the kobolds. This is also a big gain."

"Besides, their lair still needs to be explored, otherwise it will always be a time bomb standing around."

After pondering for a while, Sumo made a decision.

It was getting dark outside at this time. After checking the situation outside the shelter, Sumo walked over.

He checked the rope on the kobold again with his backhand and dragged it to the corner of the cave. After telling Oreo to watch it at night, Somo returned to the crib.

In the last days, when it gets dark, you basically have to stay in the shelter.

Pulling the light bulb in front of him and turning it off, Sumo gradually fell asleep listening to the roar of the generator.

【January 7th on the last calendar day】

[You repaired a generator, which improved the level of technological civilization (survival point +10)]

[You discovered an underground ruins (+5)]

[When you were exploring underground ruins, you encountered an enemy, and you defeated the enemy forcefully (survival points +10)]

[You have a prisoner for the first time (survival point +5)]

[Scanning the host’s living environment, survival points are being evaluated, and 62 survival points were obtained today. 】

Final settlement: survival points +102

Survival points remaining: 175

The early morning not only brought good news about the system, but also Shen Ke's news flashed in the private message chat on the game panel.

Sitting on the bedside, Sumo looked at the obedient kobold in the corner who was being disciplined by Oreo, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

It was the first time a stranger spent the night in the shelter, and this person was a kobold.

He didn't sleep well all night, fearing that the kobold would be a desperate man who would burn down the shelter in a fire that night.

Opening Shen Ke's message in the chat panel, Sumo looked at it intently.

[Shen Ke: Sumo, my brother-in-law has already drawn your design. This is a transaction link. Just take a photo of it after you wake up. If you don’t understand something on the design, you can ask me anytime.]

Below the message hangs a trading item that only two people can see.

After paying two disaster points, the light flashed and the design appeared in the storage space.

Leaning on the bedside, Somo opened the dead person's private message used to record the diary and began to write it with his mind.

"Today is the seventh day of the first month of the last calendar month. It's the seventh day since we arrived in the wasteland. It's also a week."

"If the civilized world continues, it should be December 29, two days before New Year's Day!"

"Oh, my sister's birthday seems to be the New Year this time? It seems like she won't be able to celebrate it. I don't know if my parents will celebrate this girl's birthday in another place."

"Currently, the supplies in the base are quite sufficient, enough for Oreo and I to eat for half a month. However, yesterday's flour consumption was a bit too much. It seems that we can only make two meals of oil noodles. I'll keep these two meals at home. People are doing it when they come.”

"I already have a balance of almost 20 liters of Nether Energy Water. The current trading system for shipping this thing is expensive. In order to open up a larger storage space, I will save my points first and not trade."

"The captured kobold is very honest. I plan to deal with the sulfur mine near the shelter today and try to mine some of it. If I can follow him to find the saltpeter mine, maybe I can make black powder. This will be very safe. It’s guaranteed!”

"By the way, today's vegetable culture medium is still"

"Wow! The garlic seeds seem to have sprouted, and so have the cabbage! I saw a little green peeking out of the black soil. It's a day worth remembering!"

Subconsciously raising his head, Sumo saw a few green buds emerging from the culture medium under the sunlight.

This green surprise seemed to be a gift from heaven, and it drove away Somo's early sleepiness.

After putting on his clothes, Sumo walked quickly to the culture medium. He knelt down and looked at it carefully.

Where the garlic seeds were pressed, a small, pointed green sprout sprouted.

In cities, few people use garlic seeds to grow garlic. Everyone buries garlic cloves in the soil. Not only does it grow quickly, but it also requires little care.

Therefore, it was also the first time for Sumo to see such things growing from garlic seeds.

The growth of cabbage on the other side is even more gratifying. There is a small green stem with two leaves on it, about the size of a fingernail.

Like a pocket cabbage, it looks white and tender.

"With this growth, it looks like it won't take a month for a crop of cabbage to grow!"

"It shortened the time by almost half!"
