Chapter 47 Strengthen Again
Chapter 47 Strengthen Again
The light enveloped the entire carriage, and countless materials were incorporated into its construction. The carriage gradually lengthened in the light, becoming a 25-meter-long carriage.
The carriage upgrade was complete, and Su Li wasn't in a hurry to check the changes. The panel already explained everything.
He drove the car into the factory to continue strengthening the vehicle.
"First, let's add some storage space."
Su Li selected the first function.
Because he has a cargo bed, he doesn't need much storage space, but a screenshot Ivan sent him changed his mind.
He was a train conductor who also used a wagon. He lamented in the chat group that his wagon had been destroyed by the monster horde, and all the materials had been dropped. There were too many materials, and his locomotive couldn't hold them all. The world he was in was short of water and ore, so it was not suitable to do it again. He could only trade them at a low price with tears in his eyes.
The other one was even more unlucky. Last time, in the Howling Valley world where Zuli was, his truck bed was swept away by a tornado, and he lost everything.
This also made Su Li realize that the truck bed's protective capabilities were too poor, and there was a risk of loss; it could only be used as an emergency measure. Unless she spent money to reinforce it. After much consideration, Su Li decided to install a separate onboard storage space and use the truck bed as a backup.
[Vehicle Storage Space (lv1): Can store 2 units of materials]
[Consumables: 100 Iron Ingots, 50 Copper Ingots, 10 Silver Ingots, 1000 Wood, 300 Survival Coins, Carriage Level: Universal or Locomotive Level: Lv1]
This storage space required 5 meters of space in the carriage. Zuli placed it at the very back of the carriage.
With this space, plus the external storage compartment at the rear and the built-in storage, it can hold a total of over 3 materials, which is more than enough.
Next was the mobile planting room.
[Vehicle-Mounted Planting Room Lv1: A sunroom constructed using one-way mirrors, with walls of strength equivalent to a vehicle body. Includes automatic watering and other functions.]
[Consumables: 50 Copper Ingots, 200 Glass, 200 Wood, 100 Survival Coins, and one each of Lower-Tier Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, and Earth Elemental Fragments]
The mobile planting room requires 10 meters of space in the vehicle. After placement, only 10 meters of space will remain inside the vehicle.
For the remaining 10 meters, Zu Li chose to build two mobile dorm rooms.
[Vehicle-mounted dormitory: A personal room that will accelerate the recovery of physical strength, mental energy, wounds, and overall condition]
[Consumables: 50 Iron Ingots, 250 Wood, 250 Stone, 1 Wood Elemental Shard, 50 Survival Coins]
Each dormitory room occupies 5 meters of space, so two of them would take up 10 meters. This means that all 25 meters of space inside the carriage would be used up.
He was missing one wood element and one water element fragment, which Su Li traded with someone else using four lower-grade magic crystals.
Next, we'll add a roof-mounted water tank, and another 5-ton one. We'll also add a roof-mounted combat platform.
[Vehicle-Mounted Combat Platform: 100 Wood, 100 Stone, 100 Iron Ingots, 50 Survival Coins]
After placement, a platform with railings will appear on the roof of the vehicle, without any defensive measures. However, later on, combat bunkers and artillery emplacements can be built on it.
The first super train that Zuli saw had remote attack capabilities installed on it.
Zuli wanted to upgrade the train's radar, but unfortunately, his train was too low-level to upgrade.
Su Li examined the blueprints for the level 4 train reinforcement plugin at the factory.
The factory is better than the shop in this respect. The factory provides building blueprints, which show the required materials, while the shop provides recipe blueprints, which do not show the required materials before use.
[Level 4 Train Enhancement Plugin - 300 Survival Coins]
[Required Materials: 500 Wood, 500 Stone, 300 Iron Ingots, 50 Copper Ingots, 200 Silver Ingots, 50 Gold Ingots, 10 Batteries, 30 Plastic, 5 Gold Element Fragments, 5 Wood Element Fragments]
Upon seeing the recipe, Su Li knew it was hopeless. He had never even seen gold ingots before, so he decided not to buy them for the time being.
Then I looked at the next level of blueprints for the carriage.
[Refined Train Car Upgrade Module Blueprint: 300 Survival Coins]
[Can be used on general-purpose carriages to upgrade them into high-quality carriages]
[Requirements: 500 Wood, 500 Stone, 500 Iron Ingots, 300 Copper Ingots, 100 Silver Ingots, 50 Gold Ingots, 10 Wood Element Fragments, 5 Water Element Fragments, 5 Fire Element Fragments, Train Engine Level 4]
Well, there's not much to say about this, I'll hold off on buying it for now.
"So how did those guys manage to reach level 6 in just 6 days in a place with scarce resources?" Su Li was completely baffled.
It's actually very simple.
The fifth-ranked sign-in system, Lin Feng, is a reward for signing in. Moreover, it directly grants a train upgrade gift pack, providing a one-step upgrade.
The fourth-ranked probability system, Su Xing, was based on probability hints. He encountered a traveling merchant, gambled with him, and won repeatedly using the probability system, directly obtaining an upgrade plugin to level 6.
The third-ranked Summoning System, Li Fan, summoned a confidante who was originally a level 12 player who was nearly killed while being chased and escaped thanks to Li Fan's summoning technique. She happened to be carrying a large amount of materials in her personal space, which propelled her to new heights.
The second-place winner, Tang Sheng, with his "All-Inclusive System" was simple: open the boxes and take them all. Some boxes had a chance to drop upgrade cards, but the probability was extremely low.
The first-place Supreme Enhancement System – Luo Ping'an's was the simplest. On the first day, when using the initial train enhancement plugin, he triggered a Supreme Critical Strike, instantly enhancing to level 6.
It's hard to believe, because these cheaters don't follow logic. It's as if a powerful force is paving the way for them behind the scenes.
After watching the train enter the factory to begin its renovation, Su Li hurriedly ran to the temple.
Having tasted the benefits of worshipping the gods, hurry up and worship them again to get some more powerful buffs!
While Zuli was carrying out construction, the siblings had already visited the temple.
Sofia offered a Russian-style home-cooked soup to the Kitchen God and received a buff that increased her culinary aptitude.
Ivan didn't have a suitable offering at the moment. He was struggling with this decision when Su Li arrived.
At this moment, Su Li had a terrible idea. "How about you offer another Crystal Feather Serpent core as tribute?"
Ivan refused without hesitation, "I don't think so. We've already made a sacrifice, we shouldn't make another one. It's not sincere. You told me this, Su-ge."
Su Li pursed her lips, then took out the water purification device that she had offered to the God of Pioneers last time, placed it on the altar of the God of Pioneers, and began the offering.
The water purification device on the altar turned into light and disappeared. Then, the light spots condensed into a stick and slammed down on Su Li, making Su Li dizzy.
[You have received the blessing of the God of Pioneers - You deserve a beating]
[Deserves a beating]
You have gained the ability to sense treasure chests. The sensing range is within a radius of 5 kilometers.
When you open the treasure chest, you will be hit on the head by the staff of the pioneering god.
Only you in your team can open the treasure chest; chests opened by others will be empty.
[God of Pioneers: [Finger] You brat!]
"Chao, I got a lesson~" Su Li scratched his head. The blow from the stick hurt as if he had lifted a box with his little finger. However, for the God of Pioneers, this kind of punishment was more like a joke.
Some people might think that Zurich was too careless.
First of all, Zuli's act of exploring the fragments of the world was itself a sacrifice to the God of Exploration. His sacrifice just now should actually be considered a triple sacrifice: the previous exploration, the promise to continue exploring next time, and the handmade water purifier. The God of Exploration was just playing a little joke on him because he saw him being sly.
Secondly, the relationship between the pioneer and the god of pioneering is like this: the god of pioneering is very easygoing, or rather, he's quite funny.
According to the records of the gods, a person once presented the god of pioneering with a book containing the god of pioneering and the god of pioneering in a gender-swapped form, saying that this was for the pioneering of a new world.
The God of Pioneers went up and hit Su Li with the same stick she had just been hit with, then left with the words "hurry up" and gave her an inspiration buff before leaving.
Then, after this male god went home, he actually created a character that could switch bodies.
Su Li wouldn't be so casual with other people.
This blessing, though it requires a beating, is incredibly powerful. Su Li, satisfied, scratched his head and left. Ivan was left there, still agonizing over what to offer as tribute.
Finally, Ivan presented a portion of wheat he had grown himself. He then gained a [Slow Recovery] buff. After being injured, he can receive a minor healing effect by eating crops he has grown himself, lasting for one exploration cycle, with a 24-hour cooldown.
Construction is complete. Next, as usual, buy training courses.
Su Li bought herself a Warrior Training Course for 200 Survival Coins. Sophia bought an Archer Training Course for 200 Survival Coins, and Ivan bought a Guardian Training Course for 200 Survival Coins.
Training courses are charged by time, not by content. If someone is an exceptionally gifted genius, they can learn the entire training content in one course. Those without such talent will have to spend more money and take extra classes.
Then I went and bought some blueprints.
[Rifle bullet recipe 50 points] [Rifle bayonet recipe 50 points] [Optical sight recipe 50 points]
He traded some earth elemental fragments with others using his bow and arrows and backpack, bringing the number of basic planting boxes to 10. Suli felt this number was about right. Suli was also worried about running out of water. What if the next world was a desert, wasteland, or island? Then there wouldn't be enough water to grow vegetables.
