Global Wasteland: I Obtained A Top Tier Shelter
Chapter 203 - 204: Establishing a Super-Large Warehouse, A Boon for Hoarders

Chapter 203: Chapter 204: Establishing a Super-Large Warehouse, A Boon for Hoarders

The abundant and warm sunlight shone into Greenhouse No. 1, where the sound of Little Ice Lizards filled the air.

The newly evolved Little Fierce had already led the Little Ice Lizards to harvest the vegetables and fruits inside the greenhouse.

Their speed was quite fast, and they also ensured that the skins of the fruits and vegetables were not damaged while successfully placing them into wooden boxes.

It didn’t take long for them to finish the harvest here.

Lin Yue noticed that ever since Little Fierce evolved, it seemed even more diligent than before.

Previously, his relationship with the Little Ice Lizards was more akin to "employment." He provided food, and these little creatures hunted and guarded the Shelter, including harvesting crops.

But now, a closer bond had formed between Little Fierce and him after its evolution, marking a further step into a "partner" relationship. He believed that such occurrences would become more frequent, and more Little Ice Lizards would gradually join this ranks.

Satisfied, Lin Yue gently patted the Little Fierce and the Little Ice Lizards who had completed their tasks and rewarded them with fried meat.

While the little ones were eating, Lin Yue quickly gathered the fruits and vegetables from the wooden boxes on the ground and soon opened the system panel, entering the group.

He glanced at the number in the upper right corner. 89,310 people.

The trend of decreasing numbers seemed to be extremely slowing down, compared to the initial exaggerated daily death rate of almost a thousand people from the original 10,000-member group, now it could be considered incredibly slow.

It seemed that since the last earthquake disaster, this trend had persisted; from mass deaths to now not even reaching a hundred in the ten thousand-member group.

It’s indeed a good thing that this proves that Survivors are adapting to this world, adjusting to various disasters, and have more means for survival.

The ones remaining also have a deeper understanding of this world, stricter self-demands, and are the more fortunate ones too.

Of course, Lin Yue also noticed one thing.

More and more Survivors seem to have formed teams, and groups obviously make survival much easier than being alone.

Refugee Villages appeared, and perhaps next would be Refugee Towns, Cities, etc.

Just like on Earth, places where people gather eventually form cities, and an aggregation of cities ultimately becomes a country.

But there’s a major premise.

That is, resources must be abundant enough.

"This Otherworld, it’s just not feasible." Lin Yue was clear about this point.

Firstly, water itself is a big problem.

Although Earth’s freshwater resources are increasingly scarce, the situation in this Otherworld is much more severe.

Not sure about other groups, but at least in this group, the scarcity is quite evident.

Twenty-some days have passed, and if even the most basic things cannot be guaranteed, it indeed poses a big problem.

Not to mention necessities like vegetables and fruits.

Leaving the greenhouse, Lin Yue went outside and looked at the construction bar.

"The things from last time need to be built, otherwise there’s no place to put the minerals and various items scattered around the courtyard. Plus, some things can’t always be stored only in the Shelter warehouse; they’re too space-consuming."

He looked at the "Medium Warehouse Blueprint," and the system immediately provided the construction requirements.

[Medium Warehouse: Wood/Stone/Iron Block/Alloy X100]

Lin Yue glanced at the materials in his hand and directly chose Iron Blocks as the construction material.

A metal warehouse seemed proper; Lin Yue didn’t want to incur losses due to fire or collapse among other possible events.

As for the alloys, there weren’t enough at the moment, so he had to settle for Iron Blocks temporarily.

[You built Medium Warehouse X4!]

A flash of white light passed by, and soon four dark shadows appeared beside the open ground near the Melting Furnace!

"Wow, the area is indeed quite sizable."

He also noticed that each building covering 300 square meters wasn’t like a house with walls on four sides, but a structure supported by a large roof and numerous metal pillars, allowing ventilation everywhere.

And after connecting the four warehouses together, they directly offered a massive space of 1200 square meters for storing items!

After spending a little time, Lin Yue piled the small plane and a large amount of minerals into the gigantic interconnected warehouse and found a problem.

The courtyard seemed more crowded than before.

Now, only the area behind the Shelter is relatively open; the other spaces are constrained by the walls covering 8000 square meters.

"Perhaps it’s necessary to establish a third layer of walls on the outer perimeter and dismantle the first layer..."

He increasingly felt that with the growing volume of materials and items, the urgency of such tasks was mounting.

He glanced at the trash compactor left outside and shook his head.

This thing seems completely useless.

Almost all types of used garbage, barring kitchen waste, can be recycled for useful materials at the workstation.

And kitchen waste can simply be buried and used as fertilizer, although it’s not needed at the moment.

Lin Yue thought maybe he could see if this garbage compactor can be traded away, otherwise, just disassemble it.

He looked again at the friends list and the names of those three people.

Fei Yue, Xia Feihong, and Xing Lingfeng.

"I’ll trade with those three first and see if they have anything good."

Lin Yue planned to chat with them first, and then go to the Natural Sulfur Ore Mountain with Bai to pack as many ores into the Shelter there as possible before considering others.

The previous exchange with these people had already yielded many items, including many alloys and various components, even gaining more gasoline. This time, he hoped to collect more good things.

These three individuals also had large Refugee Villages behind them.

Their needs were great, especially in terms of vegetables and fruits.

It’s safe to say that these people need not worry about other basic living needs, but they are concerned about a balanced nutrition.

In this Otherworld, there are no fruits or vegetables to eat, even wild grass is deemed inedible by the system.

Survivors with health concerns have an extreme craving and demand for fruits and vegetables.

These, naturally, are Lin Yue’s bargaining chips, which allow him to exchange for a wide variety of needed items, whether it’s alloys, damaged electrical appliances, or things that appear to be junk.

All three of them had unread messages in the chat box with him.

First, looking at Fei Yue.

"Do you need anything, Lin Yue? We gathered some good stuff from the Secret Realm yesterday; here’s a picture. Do you want anything? Image.jpg"

Lin Yue looked at the picture, which showed a pile of various machine parts, although rusty, they looked quite nice.

Furthermore, he spotted a rather interesting little gadget from the picture. The message was sent last night; it seems they went to the Secret Realm yesterday.

"I want them all, name your price." Now with the large warehouse, there was no fear of having too many of these things.

Upon sending the message, Fei Yue quickly responded.

"Lin Yue, our leader wants to chat with you before the trade; do you have any interest?"

"Leader?"

He raised an eyebrow.
