《My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!》Chapter 186: Got In Touch Finally, The Truth Was Revealed!
Advertisement
"Hey, brother, you were so cool!"
"Wait, are you even Su Mo? You are my brother, Su Chan's brother, right? It's only been a few weeks since we last saw each other, but somehow you've become pretty awesome it seems."
Seeing Su Chan teasing him, Su Mo's heart that had been hanging in a lurch finally settled down.
"My goodness, it seems that this little missy here also watched the entire live broadcast, so your situation shouldn't be too terrible..."
While calming himself down, Su Mo asked the most important question!
"Where are you?"
From the Underground Shelter, he had marched through the blizzard at night to the kobold castle and destroyed the pseudo god and the Heavenly Dog clan.
These were incidents that happened in the course of a single night but, to Su Mo, this night felt as long as several months.
On the other hand, Su Chan did not immediately reply the message. Su Mo waited over a minute but, when he was starting to get anxious, the prompt of a video call rang.
He raced to pick up the call, watching the screen in joyful anticipation.
Buzz, buzz~
The harsh static sound somehow also seemed beautiful at this time, as Su Mo continued to savor every second.
After three to five seconds, the screen gradually turned clear, and Su Chan's adorable face slowly appeared on the screen.
At the same time, observing at the shelter that was in her background, Su Mo also felt a trace of...
Familiarity?
"Bro, you were so cool! No, no, next time my classmates come to visit, I must tell them how amazing my brother is!"
Su Chan had just arrived at the wasteland. She had yet to experience the harsh survival conditions of this world; lacking food, clothing, and water.
At this time, apart from being a little pale due to fear, her mental state was far better than others who had been living in this wasteland for the past 20 days!
"Don't you know I was worried sick, and here you are instead testing your brother's mental limits!" Seeing Su Chan's excited look, Su Mo rolled his eyes and spoke resignedly.
Those who had not experienced survival in the wasteland naturally would not know how difficult it had been for the people in this land.
Therefore, it was inevitable that there would be differences in terms of mentality.
"No, I'm smart! No one knows that we are siblings. I didn't mention it to anyone!"
Seeing Su Mo's anxious look, Su Chan was shocked. She immediately began to explain and narrate her experience of being teleported over to the wasteland.
As part of the second batch of humans who were transported here, things did not occur the way Su Mo had imagined; they did not have to accept the test of life and death right away.
Because they were absent during the first 20 days of development, when the second batch arrived, compared to the first batch, they were given a choice and, at the same time, a privilege.
The choice was the location of the individuals' arrival.
Upon arriving in this environment, seeing the name of her elder brother, Su Mo, as a selectable option, Su Chan decided to put her location next to Su Mo without hesitation.
A light flashed and, when Su Chan woke up, she found that she was already standing in the middle of the blizzard.
It was freezing cold.
The whistling of the north wind.
Face with this harsh weather, her quick thinking and decisiveness led to her choosing to construct an underground shelter.

At the same time, the privilege granted to each person was different.
As the "lucky ones", the humans who arrived in this second batch either received resources, weapons, or some temporary buffs.
Like 6h of cold resistance, 12h of hunger exemption, or a one-time right to use a vehicle.
There were many different kinds of privileges. From Su Mo's point of view, Su Chan's privilege was a blessing to her character. It may have seemed useless but, in truth, it was one of the "best" privileges:
Second-time teleportation!
In addition, during the second teleportation, the factors selected during the first teleportation would still affect the outcome.
Possessing such a "life-saving talisman", Su Chan was not aware that Su Mo was making his way toward her. As she waited in the underground shelter in the extreme cold for 10 minutes, the kobold castle in the distance became the only viable choice...
To ask for help.
If it turned out to be an enemy, she could directly use her privilege to teleport again.
With the safeguard in mind, what unfolded afterward was logical. Su Chan, a human, stood before the kobold castle and shouted.
The kobolds, who had already tasted defeat and frustration at the hands of Su Mo, would naturally not just leave things be. They marched out of the castle to Su Chan's shelter.
Realizing that she could not run away, Su Chan decisively activated her second teleportation privilege.
A light flashed and, when she could see again, she had arrived at the outskirts of the shelter that Su Mo had just seen, a scenario that was infinitely more preferable than that of the kobold castle.
Even though she was not given preferential treatment, under the leadership of the guards, Su Chan was placed in a partially occupied room and stayed there.
On the way to the room, the anxious Su Chan immediately tried to find and send Su Mo a friend request after figuring out the various functions of the game panel, hoping to explain the situation to him.
However, as she entered the room, she was stunned to find that all the people were hugging each other in the room as they watched the shining scene in front of them like a movie.
On such a cold day, they were still thinking about watching a movie?
With all kinds of doubts in her mind, Su Chan took a closer look and was surprised to find that the protagonist in the movie was none other than her brother...
Su Mo!
'My goodness, my brother is on the live broadcast? Four billion people around the world are watching him?'
After verifying that this Su Mo was different from the past, the clever Su Chan immediately resisted the impulse to tell the people around her that she was Su Mo's sister.
She even made her own decision to change her surname to that of her mother's and told everyone that she was Yang Chan.
"As expected of my sister, such a smart girl! Big bro here gives you a thumbs up!"
Seeing Su Chan, whose face seemed to be waiting for his approval, Su Mo laughed and gave his compliment without hesitation.
In a sense, Su Chan's actions were the best means of "self-protection".
The title of Su Mo's sister had become a heavy crown to bear after tonight.
Being in someone else's shelter would bring her an unimaginable amount of trouble once her identity was revealed.
"Of course! But brother, please try to find a way to come over and pick me up quickly. Everyone in this shelter has to work twelve hours a day, and I'm going to become a zombie very soon!"

Seeing Su Mo laugh, Su Chan looked behind her cautiously, before taking two steps forward again, her expression sorrowful as she grumbled.
The style of the Su family was to work hard and never complain.
It was not that Su Chan could not accept such manual labor.
Rather...
It was because, despite having such an awesome brother like Su Mo, she still had to perform menial labor in someone else's shelter.
Hearing what his younger sister mentioned, Su Mo frowned and looked at the shelter behind Su Chan. He racked his brains and began to think about where he had seen this shelter before.
"This shelter you are in is very familiar to me. Do you know its name?"
Before Su Mo's sentence ended, Su Chan replied excitedly, "Really? My shelter seems to be called... Tun...Yes, it's called Tundra Shelter. Bro, are you familiar with it? Is it near your shelter?"
"Tundra Shelter?"
"Yes, yes, that's the name! Look at the ground under my feet, it's all moss!"
Whoosh!
Seeing his sister jumping up and down, and looking at the familiar building behind her, at this moment, there were thousands of "damn its" echoing in Su Mo's heart.
"Damn, it's the Tundra Shelter?"
"Why did fate place my sister there?"
The strange architectural shape, and the iconic moss under her feet, were all trademark features of the Tundra Shelter.
At this moment, in Su Mo's mind, the building complex also matched the scene from the time when he had watched the live broadcast of the Tundra Shelter back then.
Shen Ke was there, and also the military, as well as some people who Su Mo hated very much...
Ying family!
Ying Tianlong!
Seeing Su Mo's heavy expression in the video, Su Chan, who was still wearing an excited look, realized something in an instant, and her face turned pale.
"Bro... Brother, don't tell me that... this shelter belongs to your enemy..."
"You are my blood brother, don't scare me like this!"
Seeing Su Chan teary-eyed face, Su Mo snapped out of his thoughts and shook his head, with a trace of seriousness on his face.
"The Tundra Shelter is an officially established one. It is very reliable in terms of safety and organizational discipline. It should be safe to stay in it for now!"
"But this shelter should be quite far away from my current location. Even if I want to come over, you have to be mentally prepared that it would take me at least one month!"
Hearing that they were not Su Mo's enemy, Su Chan sighed in relief. She obediently listened to Su Mo's words while checking around to see whether anyone was coming.
"In this shelter, there are indeed some of my enemies present. They are the Ying family!"
"The Ying family?"
"Yes!"
Hearing Su Mo's heavy tone, Su Chan tilted her head and pondered for a while, before saying with some uncertainty, "Brother, about that... the Ying family you mentioned seems to have been chased away by the boss of the Tundra Shelter a few days ago."
"I heard it from the gossip last night. At that time, half of the people here followed Ying... Ying Tianlong, and went to build a new shelter, and most of the supplies here were divided evenly."
"There is no Ying family in the shelter now!"
After speaking, Su Chan was still worried so, after saying a few words, she hung up the video call and went to verify the information.
On his side, Su Mo's expression became weird after listening to the news from his sister and he stared blankly at the dark screen for awhile.
After learning that Shen Yitian had been killed by Ying Tianlong previously, Su Mo vowed to kill Ying Tianlong.
However, given the situation at that time, he had no evidence nor influence. If he relied on just the so-called "No. 1" title and rushed to tell Shen Ke that her brother-in-law was killed by Ying Tianlong, he would be provoking discord.
When Su Chan said that the Ying family had been chased away, Su Mo suddenly felt that the world had calmed down.
"Sure enough, the people in the Tundra Shelter are not fools. However, it's a pity that... the old dog Ying Tianlong is not dead yet!"
Her video call rang again and, after hearing Su Chan's confirmation, Su Mo became relieved immediately.
"Since the Ying family is not in the shelter, then things will be easier. Su Chan, you must memorize my next words clearly!"
Seeing that Su Mo was going to "assign tasks", Su Chan's head nodded like a chicken pecking on rice, her face displaying a clever expression that indicated that she would take everything he said to heart.
"First of all, in the Tundra Shelter, or in any situation, you can't expose our relationship, including our friendship in the game. After this, delete me from your list of friends. I will find a way to contact you as soon as possible. Remember, do not let anyone know that I am your brother!"
"Second, in the Tundra Shelter, since everyone has a task assigned, just do what the others do. Don't throw tantrums or expect special treatment. This is not Earth. People die here! Including your brother; I have been on the verge of death several times!"
"Third, while tasks involving menial labor are fine, when danger approaches, whether its an invasion of foreign mythical races, mutant creatures, or any other dangerous elements, you must hide far away from them. Don't succumb to curiosity and try to join in the fun! Cherish your life and wait for your brother to come to rescue you!"
After he finished talking about the three most important rules, Su Chan nodded her head frantically when she saw Su Mo's brows furrowed, indicating that she had remembered it all.
"You're just nodding randomly. Repeat to me what I just said!"
Feeling uneasy, Su Mo asked Su Chan to repeat everything. After repeatedly confirming that Su Chan had memorized what he said, Su Mo's expression calmed down. He asked, "Do you have 100 disaster points now?"
After the sentence ended, Su Chan nodded and directly allowed Su Mo to view her game panel.
Su Mo took a glance; there were 112 points remaining. Compared with the first disaster, the public reward was much better this time around. Most people should be able to open the most basic storage space function.
"After you are asked to be marked, all your game panel functions will be monitored! Including storage space and chat messages!"
"But don't worry too much. Stay in the shelter obediently. When the time comes, I will provide you with material support through other means."
"As for the strength of the Tundra Shelter, you don't have to worry about it. I will also help them in other ways. Wait for me and, when the time comes, brother will come to you!"

Vemödalen: From The Other Side
War is coming - And when it comes - And where it comes - And whence it comes - The living shall envy the dead One to carry their sword in the name of their goddess and lady, to protect their land and people against the threat of the wicked. They know their path to be the righteous one. One to roam the land, hunting for all apparitions, and be scorned by man and beast alike. They know their path to be an arduous one. One to wander the realm in search of power, to protect themselves and what they believe in. They know their path to be the only one. Writers note: The first chapter will set the standard in terms of mood for the remainder of the story. It also comes to no surprise to me that half the people who read the first part stop reading any further. It has quite a bit of the good ‘ol ‘ultra-violence’ mixed with a great deal of realism. As much as I could fit into it from my own knowledge and experience in the elite forces. The first few chapters will be slow, after, but starting from ‘Restless Destroyer’ the remainder of the world will start to open up, and when we hit ‘Adronitis’ the prologue is largely finished. The novel is well thought out and filled with hidden lore, culture, history. So even if my word choice appears random – it’s not. There is a reason why these chapters take as long as they do. Vermodalen is fantasy adventure, with magic and heroics in an as realistic setting as I could fit. Things are rarely what they seem, and the ugly nature of people bleed through the letters at the turn of every page. I hope you can give this story a fair chance, even if it isn’t immediately to your taste. Lastly, english isn't my first language. It isn't my second one either. So, if you find errors in grammer and spelling, wordplay and sentance building, do let me know, and you will be rewarded by a surge of dopamine that will be released inside your brain for helping someone whom you haven't even seen or heard.

Epistolary, confessional, and didactic in form, the book is presented as an autobiography of the title character (whose birth name is Robinson Kreutznaer)-a castaway who spends twenty-eight years on a remote tropical desert island near Trinidad, encountering cannibals, captives, and mutineers, before ultimately being rescued.

Making a difference
Harry Potter FanFiction: Hannah Longbottom liked to watch the people who entered the Wizarding World via the small, walled courtyard behind the Leaky Cauldron for a reason: During her not so long life, she had learned about three different boys who had entered the Wizarding World alone, leaving behind a life so horrible she could barely imagine. One of them, who became a friend of hers, had gone through great hardships to become a hero, one of the greatest wizards the Wizarding World had ever seen. One of them, who had been her teacher, had become cold and bitter, and no one had ever recognized what amazing talents he could have offered, until it had been too late. One of them, the monster she had helped to fight during the Battle of Hogwarts, had become the most dreaded, most dangerous, and most deadly man Great Britain had ever seen, and yet it could have all been different, if someone had just tried to make that difference early enough in that life, if he had not boarded the train to Hogwarts all alone. Already posted at Devianart and AO3, I've included a link to RoyalRoad on my profiles there.
