My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely Novel! - Chapter 627:
Chapter 627: The Three Illustrated Books, the Powerhouses of the Past Era! Part 1
The three illustrated books were the strength of the former era’s powerhouses!
Su Mo thought this was a timely rescue operation.
Unfortunately, he was under the wrong impression of other people’s ideology in the New World, which turned into a farce.
There were 132 people in the cliff territory.
There were 107 ordinary laborers, excluding the 25 abusers.
Among them, 25 people chose to gamble their fate and follow Su Mo to unfamiliar territory.
54 of them chose neither side and wanted to stay in the cliff territory for the time being. Then, they would leave after the snowfall and winter were over.
Another 28 ultimately refused to believe in the sudden appearance of the strongest human Almighty Su, detested the idea of leaving with him, and instead chose to go separate ways after winter.
The previous four parties in the cliff territory miraculously maintained their original stance after the arrival of Su Mo.
The only difference was the oppressors were already of the past.
…
…
“They chose not to believe. Whatever happens from here is their own fate to bear. We’re not a welfare home or some kind of disaster resistance organization.
“What’s more, this is the New World, not the Deep Sea. We’ve no obligation at all, nor are we qualified to forcibly change their minds.
“That’s not in line with the basic rules of existence in the wasteland. I’m sure you already understand!”
Su Mo sat inside the accommodation of the abusers that had already been cleaned out and patiently explained to Liu Jiao while flipping through the book beside him.
Liu Jiao was the actual name of the tall woman who had complete trust in Su Mo from the beginning.
The reason she ended up in the territory was more tragic than the others. Unlike the rest who were deceived by the Liu brother’s nonsense and promises, she was betrayed by her relatives.
A close relative from their original Earth tricked her to come to the cave and get a reward from the Liu brothers.
Afterward, when Liu Jiao realized that the territory was strange, it was already too late. She had already entered the wolf’s den, and it was much harder to get out!
“Ahh…ahh…”
“Don’t worry, I won’t chase them away. You guys are the ones who found this place. They can stay if they choose to stay,” Su Mo comforted Liu Jiao again.
She silently nodded and returned to the corner to convey the message to the others.
Su Mo nodded calmly and returned his attention to the album in his hand.
A few moments later, Su Mo raised his head after he finished reading the book and praised it.
‘Although the Liu brothers stayed deep in the mountains, they have quite some valuable things on hand!’
On top of the book had four words printed on it: Encyclopedia of Wasteland Plants.
When Su Mo first stumbled upon it, he thought it was a book of basic information collected and compiled by humans in the New World. He did not have many expectations of the contents’ accuracy.
However, this encyclopedia was like Magoo’s diary, which he had acquired. It had precious information left by humans of the previous era.
Inside, each common plant of the wasteland was described in great detail.
Not only did it contain the name and function, but simple medical prescriptions and formulas were included under each plant.
The plant’s transplant methods were even included in the descriptions.
Instead of a basic encyclopedia, it was technically a botanical guide in the wasteland and was incredibly practical.
The second picture book was also equally valuable.
Encyclopedia of Wasteland Minerals.
The book also recorded minerals that had appeared in the wasteland and had rough outlines and sketches of each mineral.
It included minerals as fundamental as iron to some unique powder stones.
Su Mo felt that he benefited greatly after going through the book.
‘Heatstones were unearthed in the last era. It’s a pity that no one could upgrade it, so they did not record much information about it.’
The book ranked heatstones as the 23rd in terms of importance.
It was a disaster resistance item necessary for players to survive the cold winter and the hot summer.
There were another 22 precious ores that ranked before it.
For example, there was a Level 9 resource ore called the sword stone.
The ore resembled a sheathed sword that looked extremely cool and had jaw-dropping functions.
It could be smelted and inserted into the item being crafted. This would give the item a special property no matter its previous properties.
The efficacy would also increase by 25%!
A 100W light bulb would be able to output 125W with the addition of the mineral.
A 200-horsepower engine could increase its output to 240 horsepower without additional changes to it aide from adding the mineral.
Even a generator could output an additional 25% of electricity without having to change the fuel, power, or other aspects.
It was hard for anyone to grasp the principle of such a strong mineral!
There was also a Level 8 ore—the flame stone.
This mineral had outrageous functionality. It made anyone immune to high temperatures of below 60 degrees. It would allow the person to feel a constant temperature of 24 degrees when one had a 500g piece of the ore on him.
Creating a piece of full-body equipment to cover one’s body with the flame stone would allow the person to stand directly within a fire without sustaining injury.
There was also a similar Level 8 ore called the frost stone, which absorbed and prevented injuries caused by low temperatures.
