My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! Chapter 49: Wasteland first week, hope sprouts

The small hole that blocked the smell was opened, and the smell wafting out couldn't be restrained, so Su Mo determined the ingredients almost immediately.

Gunpowder!

Or to be more precise - black powder!

After carefully pouring the black particles from the stick onto the table, an extremely pungent sulfur smell came.

"Kobolds actually need black powder to release the so-called fireball?"

Hearing this news suddenly, Su Mo felt a little inconceivable.

Previously in No. 2 refuge, the warlock kobold first waved his wooden stick before releasing his fireball.

At the time, Su Mo thought it was a spell-casting action, or the attribute of the stick.

I didn't dare to think, so the Kobold released a fireball and respected science?

"So... what the kobolds are looking for is black powder?"

Hearing Su Mo's muttering, Oreo nodded quickly, indicating that Su Mo understood correctly.

The kobold who was **** in front of the table seemed to resign himself to his fate after seeing Su Mo pour out the black powder, and continued to chatter.

Don't bother with Oreo's communication with the kobolds.

Su Mo clicked on the game panel, clicked on resource scanning, and ticked the raw materials for black powder preparation on the resource option.

[Record]: A small sulfur mine was detected in the southeast of the player's current distance of 465 meters

[Record]: 2/3 times today

"Sure enough, what they are looking for today is this natural sulfur mine"

There was neither sadness nor joy on Su Mo's face, and his thoughts gradually drifted away.

The modern process of extracting sulfur has already been innovated many times. Even after the steps of atmospheric pressure and vacuum, catalytic cracking, hydrocracking, and delayed coking, the sulfide in the oil is separated and turned into sulfide sewage. The sulfur in the sulfur-containing sewage is recovered and processed to produce finished sulfur.

And in ancient times without this technology, people wanted to make sulfur:

One is to find a way to mine the natural sulfur mines like those near the refuge.

The second is to extract the sulfur inside by smelting pyrite.

The fact that kobolds have the ability to judge and find sulfur mines proves that they have reached the edge of science.

It is very likely that they already know these things. After mixing them in a certain proportion, they will make such amplified gunpowder, which will be catalyzed by spells to increase the power of the fireball.

"Wow?"

While Su Mo was thinking, Oreo on the other side also finished communicating with the Kobold and came back.

Oreo pointed to the black powder poured out by Somo again, then pointed to the distance, and finally pointed to the kobold.

"You mean he is willing to take us to the place where the kobolds mined?"

Oreo nodded.

"I have sulfur mines here. If I want to make gunpowder, I need enough potassium nitrate, and potassium nitrate is the main component of saltpeter. Maybe the kobolds have discovered a large-scale saltpeter mine"

"Will you go..."

Su Mo pondered in his heart, black powder is definitely an indispensable thing for making hot weapon pills.

If the small thermal weapon machine tool can be repaired in the end, there is still a big gap in the raw materials of the ammunition.

After looking at the kobold who was still chattering, Su Mo stepped forward resolutely and punched the kobold with a dizzying punch.

"Going is definitely going, not to mention other things, just talk about the treasure chest that the kobold broke out, this is also a big gain"

"What's more...their lair still needs to be investigated, otherwise it will always be a time bomb standing around"

After pondering for a while, Su Mo made a decision.

At this time, it was getting late outside. After checking the situation around the shelter, Sumo walked over.

He checked the rope on the Kobold again and again, and dragged it to the corner of the cave. After telling Oreo to watch the night, Somo returned to the little bed.

In the last days, when it gets dark, basically you can only stay in the shelter.

Pulling the light bulb close to him and turning it off, listening to the roar of the generator, Sumo gradually fell asleep.

...

Early morning not only brought good news from the system, but Shen Ke's news also flashed in the private message chat on the game panel.

Sitting on the head of the bed, Su Mo looked at the honest Kobold in the corner who was disciplined by Oreo, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This is the first time a stranger has spent the night in the shelter, and this person is a kobold.

All night, he didn't sleep very well. He was afraid that the kobold would be a reckless wolf, and a fire burned down the shelter at night.

After opening Shen Ke's message in the chat panel, Su Mo looked intently.

[Shen Ke: Su Mo, my uncle has already drawn your design. This is the transaction link. Just take a picture after you wake up. If you don’t understand something on the design, you can ask me at any time]

Below the message hangs a trade item that only two people can see.

After paying two disaster points, the light flickered, and the blueprint appeared in the storage space.

Leaning on the bed, Su Mo opened the private letter of the dead person used to record the diary, and began to write with his mind.

"Today is the seventh day of the last month of the calendar, the seventh day in the wasteland, it is considered a week"

"If the civilized world continues, it should be December 29th, and it will be New Year's Day in two days!"

"Oh, my sister's birthday seems to be a small year this time? It seems that I can't make it through, and I don't know if my parents will give this girl her birthday in another place..."

"At present, the supplies in the base are quite sufficient, enough for me and Oreo to eat for half a month, but yesterday's flour consumption is a bit too much~IndoMTL.com~ It seems that the oily noodles can only be made for two meals, These two meals are still made when the family comes"

"The balance of Youneng water is nearly 20 liters. The express delivery fee of this product is currently expensive in the trading system. In order to open up a larger storage space, I will save the points first and not trade."

"The kobold who was captured is very honest. I plan to deal with the sulfur mine near the shelter today and try to mine some out. If I can follow him to find the saltpeter mine... Maybe I can make black powder , so the safety is very guaranteed!"

"By the way, today's vegetable culture medium is still..."

"Wow! The garlic seeds seem to be sprouting, and so is the cabbage! I saw a little green peeking out of the black soil, what a memorable day!"

Raising his head subconsciously, Su Mo saw a little green sprout emerging from the culture medium under the sunlight.

This green surprise seemed to be a gift from heaven, and it drove away Somo's sleepiness from getting up early.

After putting on his clothes, he quickly walked to the culture medium, and Su Mo squatted down to look carefully at it.

Where the garlic seeds were pressed down, a small, pointed green sprout has emerged.

In cities, few people use garlic seeds to grow garlic. Everyone uses garlic cloves to bury in the soil, which not only grows quickly, but also requires little care.

Therefore, it was also the first time Su Mo saw such things grow from garlic seeds.

The growth of cabbage on the other side is even more gratifying. There is a small green stem with two leaves on it, about the size of a fingernail.

Like a pocket cabbage, it looks white and tender.

"This rising trend...it seems that it will take less than a month to grow a crop of cabbage!"

"The time has been shortened by almost half!"
