My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!
Chapter 476 - Legendary Quality! The Might of Hope One!
Chapter 476 Legendary Quality! The Might of Hope One!
“Currently, after spending and obtaining a series of rewards, I have…thirteen thousand Disaster Points remaining!”
“If Hope One is upgraded to legendary-quality, then the game will determine that Hope One originated from…”
“No, the game will think that Hope One was derived from the blueprint. The game will then impose a series of limitations!”
“At that point, if I wanted to continue using Hope One, I would then have to pay….fifty thousand Disaster Points. How absurd!”
He tapped on the game panel’s vehicle page and stared at the bright red countdown timer for a while, before closing the game panel while rubbing his temples.
Hope One.
What he valued was not the vessel.
The ship was armed with a main gun that could literally obliterate the enemy’s territory within moments, like calling down a punishment from the heavens.
The vertical missile launcher unit onboard could even wrestle and triumph against the deities in the skies.
Perhaps in the eyes of the game, these things violated the game’s intentions and destroyed the balance of the game.
However, only Su Mo, Lu Kuan, and a few others knew that Hope One was a monster not because of the weapons it carried onboard, but rather because of the heart that acted as its core. The Civil Type II—Matter Conversion Engine! This heart gave Hope One its capability to sail on the ocean. At the same time, it provided the power needed to operate the main gun and provided the crew with a comfortable living environment.
If the heart had not supplied Hope One with power, by converting matter into electrical energy, Hope One would merely be a stationary bunker.
The game’s sense of timing was impeccable.
If Su Mo had been given one more day, he would have been able to save twenty thousand Disaster Points. He could have uninstalled the engine and placed it within his territory.
However, currently, he was short of seven thousand points.
He was still lacking!
“Indeed. When the game first rewarded me with this engine, the game would never have imagined that I would have the blueprint to build it.”
“It also never imagined that I would be able to install it on the ship and obtain an endless supply of clean energy.”
“This thing is pretty much a bug. To a certain extent, it is even more convenient than controlled nuclear fusion. It can speed up the pace of my territory’s development by ten times, or perhaps even a hundred times!”
As those seven days passed by, after studying, Su Mo once again increased his level of knowledge.
His study of biology advanced to 39% of the Information Age. He even advanced his chemistry and physics studies to the Information Age-level.
His knowledge of science now allowed him to further understand the technology employed in the Matter Conversion Engine. He could now appreciate how impressive it was.
At the same time, he did not mention to Lu Kuan exactly what kind of crazy plan he was now concocting in his mind.
“Legendary-quality. It looks like a delicious temptation, but with how the game currently is, if I wanted to use it… it would be almost impossible!”
“Maybe once we reach, it will be better to…”
“Dismantle it all together? Especially this generator… We can study the technology within and perhaps even replicate it?”
The Old Era Technology and the Matter Conversion Engine had similar working principles.
In a certain way, one could say that both technologies operated based on the conversion of matter to energy.
The former was unfortunately developed in the wrong direction. It limited its application to biological energy sources and had been devised with different intentions.
The latter chose the correct path and widened its application to include multiple sources of energy, and also studied methods in which the efficiency of conversion of matter could be improved.
In other words, if they could decipher the secrets behind the Matter Conversion Engine, Su Mo would be able to counteract the effects of Old Era Technology with this technology.
If the foreign races could craft a dwarven dagger and imbue it with their flesh and blood, then Su Mo could also do something similar. In fact, his dagger could even be imbued and charged with electricity. He could freely charge it whenever and however he wanted.
Even if they could craft tools and weapons with a variety of functions, Su Mo could do the same as well. As long as he could unravel the complex workings of the technology and flawlessly replicate it, combined with the matter conversion technology, Su Mo could easily craft tools that would outperform theirs.
After all, electricity was a cheap and useful commodity.
It was far easier to generate than flesh and blood.
Su Mo kept his plans to fight magic with magic in his heart and did not mention them to anyone else.
In any case, at least to the people inside or outside, in everyone’s hearts, Hope One temporarily cannot “fall”.
For, Hope One was humankind’s pillar of faith.
Its existence safeguarded the hearts of the people, motivated them, and emboldened them with courage.
“Ah, Hope One. I hope the upgrade to legendary-quality comes with new abilities. Otherwise, we’ll be in big trouble!”
Su Mo watched as time ticked onward to the last two hours before the upgrade. At that moment, he felt a slight tinge of anxiousness in his heart.
Su Mo meditated for a while, after which his anxiousness slowly abated. His mind recovered its clarity once again.
He started flipping through his books, eager to make every second count. Until the very last moment before the upgrade commenced, Su Mo was once again reading his books.
Then…
[Record): The vehicle of the player “Su Mo” has been detected to have successfully completed all promotion missions.

[Record]: Error…error…
[Record): Dear player “Su Mo”, Hope One has been detected to possess powers and abilities exceeding the limits of legendary-quality by a significant degree. The game will nerf your vehicle and compensate you accordingly.
[Record]: You can check for the specific nerfs and compensation provided in the vehicle function panel
As expected, the game indicated that limitations were needed, and compensation would be given.
Su Mo smiled. He was not bothered by this.
The next second, focusing his thoughts, the game panel shifted and displayed Hope One’s properties panel.
[Affix: Thousand Realm Traveler…Hope One (Legendary)]
(Description: Hope. This word is a luxury during a disaster. If we were to trace its origins, it would lead us to the depths of the abyss and beyond. This is a ship that truly embodies the light of hope. Its body is adorned with billions of rays of light representing hope. It travels freely even through the darkest abyss without fear. If you are currently stranded in the depths of an abyss, please do not lose hope, because you might see this ship traversing through the depths of the abyss!)
en

(Speed: Cruising speed (surface: 35 knots; underwater: 45 knots), Maximum speed (surface: 50 knots; underwater: 60 knots), Thousand realm traveler (108000 knots).]
[Rare Facilities: Civilian type II … matter conversion engine, R33-vertical shipborne missile launch module, Hope flag…]
[Damage Output: 0 (The damage output of this ship depends solely on its captain. If the captain is strong, then so is the ship. If the captain is weak, then so is the ship).]
[Cruising Range: 00/00]
[Special Abilities:]
Charge (Epic); Porcupine (Epic); Sea Breaker (Epic); Comfortable (Epic); Potential (Legendary); Genesis (Legendary);
Hope (Legendary): Hope One as a legendary-quality ship that can travel freely between realms and has the capacity to bring hope. For further information on this ability, please explore it on your own.
Transformation (Legendary): As a legendary-quality ship, Hope One possesses numerous incredible powers. At the captain’s command, every thirty natural days, this ship can transform the size of its body once. It can achieve a maximum size of: original size*3; and a minimum size of: the size of a palm. Remaining uses: 3.
Thousand Realm Traveler (Sub-Deity): This ship carries the hope of two billion living beings. It possesses abilities that are similar to a deity. Every inch of this ship is engraved with legendary records. The captain can use this ability and choose any realm for Hope One to freely travel between, bringing hope to all living beings.
Upon using this ability, Hope One will automatically leave the current realm and head toward other realms for thirty natural days.
In this process, the ship cannot be destroyed by default. However, the captain cannot forcefully summon the ship to return.
After thirty natural days, Hope One will naturally return and has a 100% chance to bring back a gift from those “thousand realms” for the captain. [Sub-Deity Upgrade: Locked (Thousand realms traveled: Unlocked after 30 travels)!]
(Usage Consumption: Two hundred thousand Disaster Points (Sub-Deity-quality restrictions)]
It was the first time…
The first time that Su Mo saw the game display any attributes beyond Legendary-quality.
Sub-Deity-quality…
It sounded normal, yet after reading the entry for the Thousand Realm Traveler ability, Su Mo cheekily asked.
“Game, where is my compensation?”
[Record): Player Su Mo, the Thousand Realm Traveler ability is your compensation. After every departure of Hope One for thirty days, you will receive a gift from the thousand realms.
The notification echoed in his ear unhurriedly.
Then, all that was left was the banner that glowed faintly on the game panel.
It was obvious that the game felt guilty.
Currently, the two of them were still in their honeymoon period.
Even so, the game had first used the golden light to scan Su Mo on the ocean. Then it resorted to such tactics to limit Su Mo’s performance. It was being totally unreasonable with Su Mo.
To restore balance and fairness, the game thought of ways to nerf Hope One.
Even so, the game understood that Su Mo would view this nerf as being unfair towards him.
What the game measured after that were the costs of Su Mo’s sacrifices.
“A gift from the thousand realms? What could it be? Don’t tell me it’s a toothbrush or even a mop?”
[Record): Player “Su Mo”, please rest assured that the gifts from the thousand realms are graded higher or equal to rare-quality.
[Record): Furthermore, the default grade for the first gift is epic-quality. The default type is consumables. The default purpose is to improve physical quality.
The game issued another two explanations.
For the second explanation, the game might as well have told him the answer directly.
Su Mo could not help but laugh at it. This thousand realm traveler ability is full of crap. It would be better to describe it as the game confiscating Hope One and regularly handing out dividends.
“What if Hope One isn’t in its best state when traveling to the thousand realms. Would that affect the efficiency of the Thousand Realm Traveler ability?”
[Record]: Rest assured player “Su Mo”. The legendary-quality Hope One has immense self-regeneration capabilities.
(Record): As long as the following components remain secured and fastened onto the ship, even if it suffers damage, the realm travel will never fail by default.
[Record): The components respectively are: the Annihilator, the vertical missile launcher, Hope flag, Matter Conversion Engine, Defense Master, the sonar detection equipment…
A few more miscellaneous items were listed down.
In total, the game listed down more than ten items, which nearly covered all of the integral components of Hope One.
However, Su Mo’s eyes lit up when he heard that these components only had to be fastened to the ship, as well as the game’s hints about the damage received.
His gamble had paid off. He never told anyone about it. Even the game had no clue about his intentions.
This time, the situation looked promising!
