Apocalypse: Hero of Potato Fields
Chapter 59: Mad Expansion
CHAPTER 59: CHAPTER 59: MAD EXPANSION
Inside the shelter.
Lin Yi spent some time carefully studying various items in the store, deciding to initiate the crazy expansion mode.
Suddenly, over three hundred girls poured into the shelter, and the space that was previously quite spacious became crowded.
Even more troubling is the need to build wooden huts for them.
Also, feeding these three hundred mouths is no joke; the shelter’s daily food consumption alone is hundreds of pounds.
Additionally, the new members can’t just eat without contributing, so setting up new farmlands is also urgent.
To create enough space, Lin Yi decided—to expand the shelter’s space!
He plans to use 40,000 units of biomass to purchase 500,000 square yards of shelter area.
He turned to the girl idling with her phone beside him and said, "Melanie, tell everyone to be ready for a strong earthquake!"
"Earthquake? Got it!" Melanie swiftly responded and ran off.
Five minutes later, she ran back to report: "Everything’s ready, boss."
"Hold tight, everyone!"
The shelter’s area was to expand fivefold, so the earthquake was quite a spectacle. Cries and screams from women could be heard throughout the shelter.
The earthquake lasted about more than a minute, as the wall of fog receded, revealing new land dotted with vegetation and trees.
Once everything settled down.
Lin Yi bought a dozen bags of apple and pear seeds from the store.
In special farmland, these trees can grow in five days, with fruit maturing in another five days.
However, if he wants to brew apple wine and pear wine, he’ll have to wait until he recruits some professionals.
Next, Lin Yi purchased eight medium-sized new fields and one large field.
Thus, the total farmland area at the shelter reached 110,000 square yards, which should be enough for everyone to work.
Then, Lin Yi turned his attention to item upgrades.
[Camera, Level 4]
Upgrade cost: 500 Coins
The detection range increased from the original 18*18 to 30*30 meters.
[Space-Time Teleporter, Level 1]
Price: 3000 Coins
This device can enhance the teleportation capabilities of the shelter.
It can teleport larger items without touching them.
The Teleporter looks like a small monument, about two meters wide and ten meters tall, entirely black with a few glowing lines on its surface, looking mysterious and magical.
"Finally, I can teleport trucks, agricultural vehicles, and even some smaller farm equipment into the shelter."
Lin Yi was thrilled, but when he glanced at his balance—just over 5700 Coins, his mood suddenly soured.
But as the saying goes, you have to spend money to make money; there’s no way around it.
Before lunch, Lin Yi gathered with the old residents to discuss farmland planning.
Finally, Lin Yi made a decision:
Ten large fields to plant potatoes;
Four medium fields for other vegetables like cabbages, carrots, and lettuce;
Four medium fields for wheat and corn;
Two medium fields for apples and pears...
Afterward, Lin Yi gathered all the residents of the shelter in front of the new farmland to show them their new work areas.
Lin Yi also held a microphone, his voice amplified through the speakers:
"To build houses for you, build hot water showers, and other items and buildings to improve quality of life, the shelter needs to make money.
The only way to make money is to sell agricultural products.
If you work hard, within a week you can live in a wooden hut like the old members, rather than tents; it’s up to you.
Orianna, you’re still in charge of field work.
If anyone doesn’t want to work in the fields, they can talk to Chen Youyou."
Lin Yi left after speaking, leaving Orianna to organize everyone.
Not long after, Orianna came jogging over, saying there are only about a hundred farming tools in the shelter, hoping the boss can solve this problem.
Lin Yi nodded and quickly returned to the real world.
Since the standard Harley motorcycle had been confiscated by Paradise Palace.
He could only rely on two legs to head to the Commercial Building base, looking for the Scar-faced Leader Hubert.
On the way, Lin Yi had a sudden idea to test the Space-Time Legend Device.
He found a car in fairly good condition by the roadside, walked up to it, and put his hand on the car.
Moments later, the car appeared inside the shelter!
Nice!
Previously, his teleportation specifications used a car’s size as a threshold; any item larger than a car couldn’t be teleported into the shelter.
Clearly, this is no longer a problem, and it can also earn the shelter experience.
Lin Yi remembered what Louis once said: "Which respectable boss doesn’t have a modified, comfortable ride?"
He chuckled, continuing along the road, keeping an eye out for intact vehicles to collect.
It’s a pity, though, that intact vehicles are quite rare because most cars in Paris have alarms.
Wandering zombies always accidentally bump into a car, triggering the alarm, and then they start smashing the car in an attempt to find tasty humans inside.
Oh, right, Lin Yi suddenly remembered that the Space-Time Teleporter has another function.
Previously, if he wanted to teleport a shelter member to the real world, he had to first return to the shelter to touch them, but now...
With a mere thought, he directly teleported Xiaochuan from the shelter to the real world.
"Uh? Boss, why did you..."
Lin Yi burst out laughing, tossing a Level 3 Bow to Xiaochuan, and reminded him, "Prepare for battle."
Then, under the young man’s persistently baffled expression, he teleported him back to the shelter.
Immediately afterward, Lin Yi issued another mental command, and Xiaochuan was teleported back to the real world, landing five meters ahead.
Through repeated trials, Lin Yi couldn’t help but marvel at the power of the Space-Time Teleporter.
This device grants him the ability to teleport items within a 15-meter radius to any position.
And without touching the item, he can teleport it back to the shelter and then teleport it out again, thus changing the item’s position in the real world.
Simply put, as long as Lin Yi’s mental agility is quick enough, he now has the ability to essentially teleport items instantaneously.
"Boss, my head feels dizzy..."
Earlier on, Xiaochuan was being teleported back and forth without warning—one moment in the car, the next on top of a bus stop...
At that moment, he was a bit unsteady, with an extremely pale face.
Lin Yi gently consoled: "Alright, let’s take a break and continue."
Xiaochuan: "..."
Lin Yi knew Xiaochuan had the heart of a warrior.
This was evident when he first killed a member of the Blue-haired Gang, forcing himself to slap his own face to suppress his fear.
On the way, Lin Yi specifically found some lone zombies for him to kill, hoping he could level up to Level 5.
Thus, as long as he invests his skill points in archery, he’ll become an unignorable force on the battlefield.
Unlike now...
