A city built in one month!
The power of money is terrifying!
Chen Run also knew that such a massive project could not be completed in just over twenty days, even with the construction speed of the Dragon Kingdom.
Therefore, the only requirement is that the shelters and walls must be delivered by mid-July, while other projects can proceed in parallel but with lower priority, and as much as possible can be completed.
The city wall outside the shelter is nearly 2,500 meters long and is made of granite and reinforced concrete, with a 1-meter-thick titanium alloy steel plate sandwiched in the middle.
The foundation of the city wall was dug to a depth of about 5 meters, which is sufficient to meet the needs of raising the city wall in the future.
A 2-meter-high high-voltage electric fence has been erected above the city wall to prevent anyone from climbing over it.
In addition to shelters and city walls, other secondary buildings such as residential areas, breeding areas, gardens, artificial lakes, and greenhouses need to be constructed.
At Chen Run's request, the experts calculated in advance the total number of materials needed to complete the entire project.
Chen Run prepared 1.5 times the amount of construction materials and asked the suppliers to transport them to the logistics park near the shelter in advance for storage.
I plan to go there myself after the apocalypse to retrieve the items and continue building and improving the shelter.
The entire area, excluding logistics, has already deployed nearly 5,000 people, working in three shifts 24 hours a day without interruption.
Chen Run also had another idea: those who awaken metal and earth-type abilities after the apocalypse are high-quality workers with extremely strong construction capabilities.
It allows for more efficient construction and produces better results!
Upon learning about Chen Run's grand plan for building the shelter, Huang Zhao felt a surge of excitement and enthusiasm.
"Your shelter was fine, but it's mine now!"
After absorbing the energy crystal and reviewing the shelter's memories, it was already around 2:30 AM.
At this moment, Huang Zhao finally felt a strong drowsiness coming over him and decided to rest first.
I'll absorb the crystal again tomorrow to upgrade to a level two ability user, and then head to the shelter.
After a whole day of fear and overuse of his superpowers, Huang Zhao slept soundly that night.
......
Huang Zhao's biological clock caused him to wake up leisurely at 7:30 in the morning.
The gloomy sky outside the cold storage made the morning, which was already past seven o'clock, seem like dusk, with no sign of vitality.
"Time to brush your teeth, wash your face, and go to work."
He groggily got up and found a man in dark armor standing by his bedside. He was startled and his mind cleared up.
"I almost forgot that the apocalypse broke out yesterday, so I don't have to work this B class anymore!"
Reflecting on everything that happened yesterday, we have inherited billions of dollars worth of supplies, and a shelter worth hundreds of billions is waiting to be signed for!
The more I think about it, the more excited I get—I even took down a reborn person!
A perfect protagonist template!
Suppressing her excitement, she manipulated Chen Run to retrieve two breakfasts from her special ability space.
The beautifully packaged shawarma and fresh milk are still best enjoyed warm.
The crispy bread crust encases the roasted meat, which is then enjoyed with a sauce meticulously prepared by a Michelin three-star chef.
"This shava doesn't taste as good as the jianbing guozi I made as a practice."
This sauce doesn't feel as good as ketchup; it's missing something!
I still can't appreciate the unique tastes of the wealthy.
But who knows if anyone will even have the chance to enjoy such a breakfast after the apocalypse!
Thinking about this, Huang Zhao found the taste of the shava mai to be somewhat more palatable.
After quickly finishing breakfast, Chen Run manipulated the device to retrieve the energy crystal once more.
"It would be better if the puppet being manipulated were a little smarter; mind transfer has its flaws."
After Huang Zhao's spirit was transferred into Chen Run's mind, tests were conducted, and the main characteristics were discovered.
By transferring the threads in one's mind to the mind of the puppet under one's control, one can manipulate the other's body as if it were an extension of one's own arm.
However, the main body will be unable to move. Although it can sense external information and transmit information to the main consciousness, when the main body is in danger, the consciousness can abandon the puppet and instantly return to the main body.
However, Huang Zhao still felt somewhat unsafe unless his physical body was in an absolutely safe place.
Alternatively, one can use their own mental abilities through a puppet they control, but the effect is only half that of the original.
A puppet controlled by the main consciousness can leave the mental perception area, which is equivalent to a mental ability user with half the strength.
Without mental transfer, and if the puppet is not within the mental perception area, it cannot be precisely controlled; it can only be remotely controlled and receive simple commands.
Without instructions, the puppet will only act on instinct and is very easy to lose.
"This is my granary after the apocalypse. If it's lost, I won't die, but my quality of life will be in jeopardy!"
I don't want to be as bored as Chen Run was in his previous life and commit suicide!
Hopefully, upgrading my ability level will provide a way to fix this weakness!
A mental assessment of his own ability test flashed through his mind. Although his ability had many flaws, it was still very powerful.
Moreover, I haven't fully explored and tested my own superpower yet, so there might be other ways to use it.
After a good rest last night, Huang Zhao felt that he could absorb the crystals again.
I'm only 5 energy points away from advancing. The higher my ability level, the safer I'll be.
Chen Run needs to absorb a full day's worth of energy to level up, but he can wait until he reaches the shelter to absorb it.
"No, absorb as much as you can, don't miss any opportunity to improve your strength!"
Survival is the priority. If it weren't for the worry about what might happen at the shelter, and the fact that I don't have enough energy crystals to upgrade my ability to level three, I would have been fine.
Huang Zhao even wanted to level up to the maximum level in the cold storage lounge before going out.
A shelter is of paramount importance for a safe and comfortable life after the apocalypse, and its loss is not an option!
Without further thought, Huang Zhao and Chen Run held the energy crystals in their hands and began absorbing them with practiced ease.
Ten minutes later, after absorbing the fifth energy crystal, Huang Zhao felt a familiar pain in his brain, though not as intense as when he first woke up yesterday morning.
Then a tingling sensation came through my body; this was the enhancement to my body when I upgraded my superpower.
Then the area of mental perception advanced by leaps and bounds!
It spread from 35 meters to about 63 meters before stopping!
"This time I can be sure it wasn't because I overdid it and became weak!"
I told you I'm in great health!
Is this what level two feels like? It's so much more powerful! My sensory area is about 10 times larger than when I first awakened!
And I feel like I can continue absorbing crystals again.
Therefore, Huang Zhao did not stop and continued to absorb the crystals until he had absorbed another 15.
Huang Zhaocai felt that he had reached his limit and could no longer absorb crystal energy when his mental perception range expanded to 68 meters.
A level 2 ability user needs to absorb 200 level 0 energy crystals to break through to level 3.
On the morning of the second day of the apocalypse, Huang Zhao broke through to level two!
