《My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!》Chapter 43: Automated Crossbow, Complete!
Advertisement
After killing two mythical creatures that seemed to have walked out of a fantasy world, on the way back to his first shelter, Su Mo could feel the mutated creatures that were once scary were now much cuter.
"Conjuring fireballs...outrageous, if the creatures from fantasy novels are to appear one by one, looks like mankind survival is sure to be threatened,"
The fireball's power was not tremendous.
Still, a person wielding a gatling gun could finish off a few hundred of these creatures if they had cover to defend themselves, as the fireball could never pierce their metal defense.
But, if the other creatures of legend like giant dragons were to appear…
"I sure hope not, if not we're going to become like rats in a tunnel!"
After thinking about the future of mankind, Su Mo felt a sense of despair.
After adjusting his head, he quickly got rid of all of his worries and saw his shelter at the furthest rendering distance, a sense of security came to him.
Silver and gold, nothing beats one's own man cave!
In just six day, Su Mo seemed to have turned this whole world into his territory.
Oreo, who had his tail tucked between his legs, became more energetic too as they drew closer to the shelter.
After checking that there was no sign of unwelcome visitors around the shelter, Su Mo opened the shelter door and barged in as soon as he reached the foothills.
The light quietly reflected through the ventilation into the shelter.
It formed a shining pillar of light.
You could see specks of dust dancing in the pillar of light with your naked eyes.
Even though the greens planted in the base have yet to sprout, the scent of the earth breathed life into the whole base.
"You can destroy my shelter, over my dead body."
The image of those dog-headed scum destroying his shelter made him clench his fist tightly.
Sitting in front of the table, Su Mo took out his crossbow from his inventory and placed it under the sunlight.

In a few more days, he will have enough survival points and the laser sensor to upgrade this automated weapon.
A crossbow that can fire a single bolt is useful for hunting, but can be easily overwhelmed with larger numbers.
Especially when faced with creatures that knew magic.
After focusing, Su Mo inspected the crossbow in the system.
[ Hunting Compound Bow ( Average ) ]
Description : Ranged weapon, slow reload speed, high velocity, has high firepower, an essential for wilderness survival.
Firing speed : 140m/s
Firing distance : 80m ( highest damage distance ) 165 ( effective damage distance ) 330m ( furthest damage distance )
Upgrade path one : Upgrade crossbow material, increase crossbow weight, reduce bowstring tension, survival points needed (180)
Upgrade path two: Upgrade crossbow material, install automatic winding device, change firing mode, install automatic rapid-fire mode, survival points needed (400)
"The second upgrade path needs 400 survival points. After upgrading the generator, I only have 303 points left, let's see if we can sacrifice some stuff to reduce the cost."
After mulling, Su Mo focused and the first upgrade path appeared.
He tossed in some spare parts that he has never heard of before, and Su Mo noticed two big requirements :
500W generator, composite lithium battery or lead-acid battery.
"Damn, this 500W generator is probably 5-6kg, plus a large battery, the crossbow would probably weigh at least 20kg,"
"Plus, metal had an increased effect on the item durability, if one shot quickly, the item would break after just a while of shooting,"
After weighing the benefits, Su Mo found how imbalanced the automated crossbow was with all of its pros.
The 500w generator is sure to create enough firepower, outweighing how fast it would wear down, one could deal at least a whopping 200 physical damage.
At the same time, this kind of firepower output had its own drawbacks, the battery and generator would be placed at the back, and the weight would lean towards the rear, making it hard to aim.

"Whatever, no sense in getting all uptight as it won't solve anything, let's try to solve the problem in front of us first."
After rough estimation, Su Mo opened the trading market and searched for some stuff.
The initiation of a service fee made the trading market pale in comparison to the popularity it had a few days ago, and went from tens of thousands of pages to just a meager 7-8 pages.
Not many were as rich as Su Mo now, he could use his points to pay for shipping.
After going through all the pages, Su Mo could not find what he was looking for and had no choice but to go to the world channel.
[Su Mo : WTB 500W generator, size and weight does not matter, composite lithium battery or lead-acid battery as well. ]
[Su Mo : Actively buying, will pay for logistics, those that want to sell, quickly come trade me! ]
After the first disaster, everyone's daily chat has had two trumpets now.
The first message Su Mo in the world channel sent out did not attract any attention, but the second one made the world channel explode.
"Damn, it's God Su who carried me previously, time to repay this saint, say no more, let's try opening some loot boxes for his sake."
"Congratulations on getting a karambit - battleworn , oh wait, wrong game"
"Generator, lithium batteries...has God Su reached the electrical age already? I'm still using a torch? Oh, nevermind, there goes my torch!
"I have a lithium battery in my phone, do you want it, God Su?"
"Logistics isn't cheap...the rich are really obscene,"
"Our Hua Xi is too great! The foreign Su Mo can't make it, but our Hua Xi Su Mo can!"
Following the passage of time, more and more people swarmed the world channel, all just to comment on Su Mo out of respect.
Seeing the reception, Su Mo happily added a purchase order at the trade channel.
In just a while, with a 800ml magic elixir and 11 disaster points, he bought an old generator that was probably salvaged from an electric car that weighed 12kg.
As for the lithium battery, after screening through, Su Mo spent another 600ml magic elixir and 40 disaster points and bought two different batteries, being :
20Ah, 12.8v ternary lithium battery, used to install on the automated crossbow.
400Ah, 12.8v standard lithium iron phosphate battery, used to generate energy for daily use.
As a 12-volt standard battery, a 400Ah battery can store about five kilowatt-hours of electricity at ordinary times, which is sufficient to power the shelter at this early stage.
After settling the crossbow, generator, and batteries, Su Mo thought it was time he made some changes to his survival points.
[ Hunting Compound Bow ( Average ) ]
Upgrade path one : Upgrade crossbow material, increase crossbow weight, reduce bowstring tension, survival points needed (180)
Upgrade path two: Upgrade crossbow material, install automatic winding device, change firing mode, install automatic rapid-fire mode, survival points needed (220)
"Huh? Having the two main components has reduced the points needed by 180...mayhaps, this kind of upgrade could change the element of the item as well?
Without hesitation, Su Mo upgraded.
A light flashed, and 220 survival points were deducted, a green light spread out, and the three items fused into a watery item that glowed in blue within just a second.
Following the increased frequency of the green light, the watery item condensed and slowly formed into its new shape ( please refer to the current chapter title ).
The 10kg generator vanished, and the giant lithium battery went to god knows where.
A new airbag formed under the original armrest.
The newly created automated crossbow even came with a scope, this made a person really want to try it out.
Seeing the giant killing machine, Su Mo, who was still worried about how to deal with invading dog-headed people, had some green numbers appear on top of his head.
Security + 10000!
