My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

Chapter 574 - Radio Frequency! Human Communication Across the Distance!

Chapter 574: Radio Frequency! Human Communication Across the Distance!

Su Mo decided immediately without hesitation.

After a few steps, he walked toward the center of the greenhouse and used a shovel to dig a small hole. Then, he placed the seeds of the land flower with the reverse growth attribute inside.

He sprinkled it with some fertilizer and buried it again.

After that, he took the bottle in his hands and poured about 500 milliliters of psychic energy water onto the plant.

The soil was now fertile, had enough energy, and was a suitable environment for planting.

The land flower seeds that were sown grew slightly faster than the storage flower.

In just four or five seconds, the soil in the entire greenhouse had undergone significant changes.

The area of black soil that had been fertilized before had a black and shiny color.

The pure black quickly faded and gradually turned into a basic earthy yellow tone, as if an invisible brush had repainted the soil.

The soil in the center where the seed was placed became a deeper tone, showing slight shades of a faint crimson.

Creak.

Creak.

With the further concentration of energy, the seeds that had absorbed enough nutrients finally moved as if an awakening dragon emerging from the ground.

First, a small green bud sprang from the ground with two leaves, and just like a newborn baby, it shook its body happily.

Then, the roots below began to swell visibly to the naked eye.

It was like an inflated balloon that grew increasingly taller at an astonishing speed.

The land flower’s growth did not pause for even a moment and grew to a height of more than four meters before slowly coming to a stop, spreading outward.

After three to five minutes passed, the empty greenhouse was no longer deserted.

From outside, the magical plant that had almost reached the top was vaguely visible and occupied nearly half of the greenhouse space!

‘This is not easy.

‘Before this plant, I thought I could replace it with a different method, but now I understand.

‘Everyone has their expertise, and there is a sequence of learning the art.’

Su Mo analyzed the properties of the land under his feet and looked at the fertility column, the value of which grew about 0.04 every second.

He shook his head slowly and sighed internally.

As soon as the reverse growth was completed, the land flower would begin to nourish the surrounding soil.

The nourishment was extremely fast because the flower was at the peak of its maturity. Before the fertility of the soil reached 15, it would basically increase at full speed.

It would only take seven days to complete the first stage.

The process took a significant amount of materials and would be troublesome if implemented with technological methods.

They were not comparable.

‘There’s no use to keep working behind closed doors.

‘When our territory is stable, I’ll have to go out and gain more knowledge from the other races.’

Su Mo calmed his thoughts.

He took out the other two wild duplicate seeds, found an appropriate location, and planted them with the same method.

There was an increasing need for psychic energy water.

Not including the amount for consumption, the remainder would be just enough for these big expenses, and he simply could not save much of it.

Fortunately, the spiritual rain provided nourishment to the basin.

There was no need to worry about a large-scale epidemic, and it slightly reassured Su Mo for the time being.

After he had finished the arrangements for the seeds on hand, he instructed the guard to continue guarding the greenhouse and hurriedly rushed off.

Today was the last day before the disaster, and although most of the urgent preparations had been completed, there were a few particularly important things that needed attention.

…

Su Mo headed to an independent prefabricated house inside the village. He raised his hand to push the door gently, lowered his head, and walked inside.

The basin had yet to be engulfed by the darkness around five in the evening.

The entire territory was filled with a fresh breeze after the spiritual rain from Oreo.

However, when Su Mo entered the room, the atmosphere suddenly became dull, and the flickering lights inside were a little dim.

The six villagers that were concentrated on their work immediately wanted to stand up to greet Su Mo as he entered.

Su Mo quickly motioned with a hand for them to remain seated.

Everyone had no choice but to nod their heads respectfully and continued to devote themselves to work in front of them.

“How’s it going, Zhang Biao? Is there any news from Marshal Wang?”

Su Mo walked to the villager near the door, sat down then picked up the documents on the table. He flipped through them and asked with a frown.

The man named Zhang Biao took off his headphones and shook his head with a solemn expression.

“Shelter leader, I’ve already sent an emergency signal to them, but… it’s been seventeen hours, and there hasn’t been any reply!”

“What about Liu Peiqiang? Didn’t he also have communication equipment attached to him? Is there also no news from him?”

Zhang Biao shook his head and replied with a disappointed expression, “Also nothing!”

‘D*mn…’

Su Mo’s frown deepened after hearing the two words.

The atmosphere that was already tense became increasingly solemn.

The villagers that were still working subconsciously held their breath for fear that they might trigger Su Mo’s suppressed anger.

Hope Village External Search and Rescue Information Department.

This was the official name of the department gathered in the room. Usually, people preferred to call it the Liaison Department.

As the name suggested, the purpose of the department was very simple.

They were responsible for using the previous external communication equipment in the basin, as well as new equipment drawn from the lucky bags recently to detect external signals and collect information sent by humans from other places.

Without the convenience of the chat channel, humans would still overcome it with intelligence.

They had already passed the most challenging stage.

At this stage, there were probably a number of humans in the New World that had obtained equipment that could send and receive electromagnetic waves to the outside world.

Every day, countless messages were sent out and broadcasted throughout the New World.

For example, the various documents that Su Mo had just flipped through were more important or valuable pieces of information collected by Zhang Biao and the other five team members every day.

The information collected included messages seeking to form a group alliance, alliances to attack the foreigners, and also requests to seek business cooperation.

There were also some interesting tidbits from other parts of the New World.

With these pieces of information, even if the majority of the people were “isolated” in a small area, they would not have to run around blindly

“Have you collected any information about the Great Mountain? What’s the situation there?”

After a few moments, Su Mo thought about the possible problem based on the information in his mind and the configuration of the 16-man expedition team before Marshal Wang had left.

Then, Su Mo finally spoke, breaking the dull and uncomfortable atmosphere in the room.

Marshal Wang was a person that could easily get along with everyone in modern society. Even in the doomsday wasteland, he was able to unite people to work together and build a community from scratch.

It would be a normal mistake that he made a wrong judgment and failed to see through his disguise.

After all, this person could survive on his own for more than ten days without dying in a foreign territory. It would be easy for him to deceive the “gullible beginner”, Su Mo.

However, Liu Peiqiang was saved by the three to four hundred people of the basin.

He even owed his healed broken arm to Su Mo.

Additionally, his daughter was still in Hope Village, so he had no reason to betray the basin with Marshal Wang.

After much deliberation, there were only three possibilities for why communication was unsuccessful.

The first possibility was that the group of people that came out of nowhere in the Great Moutain had very brutal tactics and sufficient weapons.

As soon as they discovered Marshal Wang and the team, they wiped out their elite team of 18 people before any emergency message could be sent out.

The second possibility was that Marshal Wang had excellent brainwashing skills and instilled a new “idealogy” into everyone in the team as soon as they left the basin.

After that, this led to the 17 people, including Liu Peiqain, betraying the village and Su Mo to pursue Marshal Wang’s great plans to conquer the world.

The third possibility was the electromagnetic waves in the Great Mountain were blocked out, and it was not that Marshal Wang and the others had no intention to send out messages but that they could not as soon as they entered the mountain.

Out of the three possibilities, the first was the least likely.

After all, when the team left, Su Mo had given nine of the team members guns, and Liu Peiqiang was equipped with an automatic rifle and lots of explosives.

The team would definitely not stay in the mountain and get wiped out if the other party had attacked aggressively. They would have immediately rushed out to secure a better combat position.

The second possibility, although possible, was without any basis after giving it careful thought.

The doomsday wasteland was not a playground. If you wanted to convince people of ideals and ambitions, you would have to prove your strength first.

Without strength, it was empty words and useless no matter what you said.

With strength, people would naturally follow after you without even saying a word.

“No, the Great Mountain isn’t the only place where we haven’t received any signals from. Even the nearby places haven’t been transmitting any news these days.

“Even when we get a signal, they’re broken messages. We’re not sure what happened!”

Zhang Biao’s words had confirmed Su Mo’s previous conjecture.

Su Mo could not help his headache after thinking about the possibility that the unknown enemy had equipment that interfered with the transmission of electromagnetic waves that they had set up.

It would be fortunate if the other party had to block communication because they were weak. It would be a big problem if they were using fake propaganda of wanting to make a fortune and instead were holding back their ruthless nature as they plotted to give a massive blow to the surrounding people.

It would be troublesome if that were to happen!

“Should we dispatch another group of people to check out the situation?”

It was not a good plan to send the teams out to die one after another.

However, Su Mo could not live with himself if he were to lie and pretend that everything was okay.

He gave it some thought and could not find any suitable solution. He calmed himself down and continued to inquire about the information collected over the past few days.

“Currently, we have gathered considerable information from the west side of the New World, which consists mainly of smaller human tribes, and medium-sized groups of foreign races.

“This batch of foreign races that joined the New World have higher intelligence and know the trade-off of interests. They understood that the humans who dared to land on the New World aren’t easy to deal with, so there were no large-scale direct confrontations for the time being. Only small provocations were exchanged against each other.

“The general environment shows that everyone was quite restrained and had the common goal of getting through the disaster first. Everything else would have to wait until the cold winter passes.”

Zhang Biao and the team were dealing with this information every single day. The information they remembered was much more comprehensive than what was recorded on paper.

Everyone on the team took their turn to report the information gathered.

Su Mo listened carefully to their remarks and gained a better understanding of the current situation.

There were several larger tribes around the basin. The small and medium-sized human and foreign races communities were unable and did not dare to get involved in the area.

However, elsewhere, there were caravans that had been established for a long time, and with the endorsement of the larger tribes, business trading between communities had been established.

One party lacked construction materials, and the other lacked suitable medicines.

This party lacked wood and the other lacked food.

With the circulation of goods from the caravan, the things in everyone’s hands started to move about rapidly. At the same time, the economy was revitalized and brought about ten times the development speed.

The smaller tribes in some areas would spontaneously unite and form a larger community to develop together in order to resist the disaster.

The impending disaster had caused the New World to form a strange “thriving” environment.

“There’s been a lot of information… about resources, but we’ve taken most of them with a grain of salt since we couldn’t determine whether they are true.

“From the information collected so far, there are many places that claim to have opened up prehistoric ruins.

“These ruins contain not only lethal weapons that are incomprehensible to modern people but also various technological items with magical powers. I also accidentally overheard someone say that they found a flashlight, and it was a fully charged flashlight. When they pointed at something, the item would be enlarged. They happened to enlarge a bag of rice into twenty bags, and the rice grains also became twenty times larger!”

The other villagers also began to exclaim after Zhang Biao finished speaking, “Yeah, yeah! There were quite a few strange things. I also heard someone found a hoe, and when you scraped it against the ground, a cube of land would automatically turn into a mound of soil. When I thought that was all, they even said that the underground space that they dug out was extremely stable and would not collapse at all!”

“This tribe dug out a huge underground palace in one day, and everyone moved underground almost immediately!”

“That’s nothing. I heard someone find a ten-story high-rise building, which not only came with living facilities that could support at least two to three thousand people, but it also had a full weapons and resources storage. They hit the jackpot in one shot and were able to chase away the surrounding foreign races!

“Well, in my opinion, the person who got a tank was the luckiest one. If it wasn’t because he didn’t have fuel or cannonballs, what foreign race in the New World can withstand its bombardment?”

The villagers began to gossip about the things they had heard.

Everyone was suddenly enthusiastic, and as if they were afraid to miss the opportunity to show off, they began to spout nonsense, disregarding the fact that Su Mo was still beside them.

It was like what Zhang Biao stated.

These pieces of information could only be taken with a grain of salt and not seriously before they could determine their reliability, whether they were exaggerating or they had really acquired such powerful items.

After all, humans had seen tanks and buildings before, and it was possible to build them.

However, it was very bizarre to be able to find things like magnifying flashlights and even a shovel that could identify good ground like in cartoons.

After paying attention to their conversation for a while, Su Mo realized that the “gossip” would not be ending any time soon and decided to multitask.

He listened to their chatter and personally tested the job after putting on headphones and started to adjust signals to receive transmissions.

On Earth, Huaxia’s radio emergency calls used the frequency bands of CH01 (433.000MHz) and CH15 (409.925).

Internationally, it was 145.000MHz and 433.000MHz.

Su Mo tuned the frequency to 145.000MHZ, then entered the activation code and password that had been loaded previously.

Before Su Mo could prepare himself, one side of the headphones transmitted an explosive sound of countless shouts!
