The World Is A Wasteland: I Obtained A Top Tier Shelter

Chapter 16

Chapter 16: Disaster Announcement!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the sturdy stone hut, Lin Yue checked the large number of items he had exchanged for water.

Other than some materials, the other things were quite good.

Things like bacon, rock salt, potato chips, and snickers could provide some flavor in this dull survival game.

As for the various blueprints, there was no need to say more.

However, what Lin Yue cared about the most was the mutated creature’s egg.

He did not expect such a thing to be used as a trade item.

He had thought that the mutated creature meat he had obtained before from the sheep was already quite novel.

Lin Yue squatted beside the basketball-sized egg. Under the light of the torch, he could see that it was white, but there were some irregularly distributed monochrome patterns. Overall, it looked quite beautiful.

What mutated creatures would this thing hatch?

Oviparous creatures included birds, turtles, snakes, lizards, and so on.

However, what among them could lay such a big egg?

Could it be an ostrich?

Or was it… a dinosaur?

Although he was quite curious about this egg, Lin Yue still decided that when the mutated creature was born, he would give it a quick death.

Was it not a wonderful deal to exchange 50 milliliters of water for a wooden treasure chest?

He knocked on the eggshell which produced dull sounds.

‘Hopefully, it is not a dud egg.

Speaking of which, when will this thing hatch?’

With doubts, Lin Yue looked at the system interface.

There was still an hour before the disaster was announced.

Looking at the group chat, it was lively as usual.

Surviving people… only 7,304?

Lin Yue was surprised by the speed of death, but he also knew that more people would continue to die silently.

Nearly three thousand people had died in this group in just three days. What about the other groups? What about the entire world?

He shook his head and continued to browse the chat.

“Lin Yue is awesome! If any of you say anything bad about him in the future, I’ll spam curse you!”

“I have even thought of the name of my and Boss Lin Yue’s child.”

“What kind of person can sell five liters of water? Is this Water Profiteer Lin Yue a terminator? He took out the inbuilt weapons to hunt all the surrounding monsters?”

“Reporting, my bid finally succeeded. The first bottle of water on the third day, long live Lin Yue!”

“Speaking of which, the disaster notice is coming soon. What kind of disaster will happen? I have nothing but this lousy hut.”

“As long as it’s not some plague of insects or beast tide. I’ll gladly welcome a rainstorm.”

“Rainstorm+1”

“Rainstorm+10086”

“A rainstorm is considered a disaster? Shouldn’t it be flood?”

“You jinx, I’ll curse you if you speak again!”

“But the system is quite humane. We have enough time to prepare since it is telling us three days in advance. If it was only a day…”

…

Lin Yue closed his eyes and took a deep breath.

The details of the disaster would be announced soon.

Once the details of this disaster were revealed, everyone would crazily hoard various resources.

Water might still be in high demand for a while, but other resources might be more popular.

As for water, Lin Yue felt that other than him and a few others, everyone else might still struggle in this extremely dry swamp.

But if it was really a rainstorm, no one would lack water.

But then, there was another issue.

Would the shelter be swept away by the flood?

Lin Yue made up his mind. If the disaster was a rainstorm, he would start working on the drainage channel tomorrow morning.

If it were a flood… such a huge disaster should not appear this early.

According to Lin Yue’s current understanding of this survival game, from the beginning until now, this game had been constantly screening out those who were weak or simply not able to adapt to this extreme environment.

Under the situation of lacking water and food, the survivors faced those mutated creatures and overcame various difficulties to survive. Only then were they ‘qualified’ to challenge this disaster.

Moreover, this should be the ‘newbie protection period’.

If a meteor suddenly fell to the ground, or a flood, a beast tide, or an earthquake appeared, it would not make sense.

If this system wanted to kill wantonly, wouldn’t sending a disaster on the very first day finish them?

Why would it even notify them three days in advance?

This clearly did not make sense.

Lin Yue looked at the countdown.

There was less than half an hour left.

No one in the group was talking about water anymore. They were all guessing what disaster they would encounter.

Some pessimistic people even felt that the entire humanity had reached a dead end and they might all die out after this disaster.

Would it really be like this?

Perhaps, Earth was already finished, and humans had obtained this chance to start over.

In the face of countless trials, how many people could last until the end?

No matter what, Lin Yue felt that even if only one person survived in this world, he would do his best to make sure that person was him.

With this system, he would not starve to death at least.

The development of his shelter would also not fall behind others’.

As he continued to train, he would continue to improve and become stronger.

Killing the giant locust today was enough to prove that he was already stronger than on the first day.

Humans were creatures that could grow, especially when faced with such an extreme environment.

Lin Yue opened the trading interface.

He decided to use this opportunity to pick up things cheap.

As a hard currency, especially on the third day, when it reached the physiological limit of most people, water could be exchanged for more things.

Lin Yue had no reason to let go of this opportunity.

This was the best time to demand a lower price.

Look, after these people kept farming mutated creatures, they obtained things that were useless at the moment but would be useful in the future.

Lin Yue cut the Gordian knot.

If he felt that something was worth the price, he directly bought it.

Soon, a minute before the countdown, he had exchanged 2.4 liters of water for saltpeter, lighter, fishing hook blueprint, flashlight blueprint, hoe blueprint, stator, and some other materials.

Lin Yue was familiar with the stator.

He had been a member of a robotics club for a while in university and knew that this thing was a key part of electric generators.

Generator… He had never seen this being mentioned in the group or the trading center.

Did no one have it, or were they hiding it?

There were ten seconds till the announcement!

Many people in the group chat were counting down!

“Five!”

“Please, don’t be too extreme!”

“Four!”

“Rainstorm, rainstorm!”

“Three!”

“The world is going to end, hahahaha!”
