...

"Final tally: points +201"

"Remaining points: 251"

...

"Good thing there's an extra point, otherwise it would have been 250."

Sam muttered to himself, touching his nose.

Inside the shelter, the temperature was well-regulated, not abnormally cold like outside.

Getting out of bed, Sam went out to wash up.

Seeing him awake, the girl in the bed silently got up, walked out to the living room,

and poked Han Xiaowu's shoulder.

"You...why are you out here again?"

Han Xiaowu turned her head, her beautiful eyes showing a hint of helplessness.

She got along well with this pretty and cute girl, but found it hard to understand her habits, Sam had prepared many beautiful clothes for girls, yet she paid them no heed!

Thankfully, she was a pretty girl.

If a guy did this, he'd probably have been beaten to death.

Han Xiaowu often wondered if Sam forced the girl to act this way, but on second thought, it seemed unlikely.

"Food."

The girl uttered a word, looking towards Sam,

Han Xiaowu instantly understood, shrugged, and said, "Alright, I guess it's my fate to toil."

After speaking, She decisively got up to reheat the meal.

When Sam came out, she served the meal.

Unlike Sam, Han Xiaowu's cooking skills were quite decent, covering a bit of every major cuisine. Sam no longer had to endure his own disastrous cooking and was quite satisfied.

"Not bad, this pork trotter!"

In the dining room, Sam ate while nodding in appreciation.

Han Xiaowu, proud, said, "Of course, I used to cook for myself. Takeaways may be convenient, but they fall short in taste and hygiene."

"Good, it seems I'm quite lucky to have snagged a beauty who can cook!"

Sam smiled, Han Xiaowu was startled, a blush creeping onto her fair face.

At that moment, She was wearing a home apron, With the shelter's temperature being normal, she was just in a thin set of office clothes, a black outfit that highlighted her figure, Her upper body plump, and a pair of ivory-like slender legs rested on the chair, glowing softly.

She wore no makeup, her natural beauty apparent, making her look fresh and lovely, Her delicate features were instantly likable.

The saying goes, "A feast for the eyes," and this was probably it!

This thought crossed Sam's mind as he looked at her.

A warm home, a beautiful person had prepared the meal, sitting by the table, her gaze gentle as water.

His appetite suddenly improved a lot, he finished the meal in big bites and drank a cup of warm water, finally letting out a satisfied sigh.

"By the way, Sam!"

At that moment, Han Xiaowu hesitated before speaking, "The fresh meat in the shelter is almost gone."

"And we don't have a good way to store fruits, if we don't eat them soon, they might..."

Hearing this, Sam realized, nodding, "Then we'll have to control the meat consumption. There's no helping it. As for the fruits, let's try to eat what we can in the next few days."

"Okay!"

Han Xiaowu brushed the hair from her ear.

Seeing her in this graceful state, something stirred in Sam, and he suddenly moved closer to her.

Han Xiaowu was startled, her eyes widened, staring at him blankly, The next moment, Sam embraced Han Xiaowu into his arms, looking at her with a smile.

"What... what are you doing?"

Han Xiaowu's face turned pink, her speech stuttering somewhat.

It was clear she was nervous, her soft body tensing up.

"You are my wife, after all."

Sam smiled, "Although not the only one, but you haven't fulfilled your duties as a wife yet, have you?"

"What... I have! I take care of the household chores and the meals, and I'm also in charge of the nursery!"

Han Xiaowu hurriedly spoke, her eyes misting slightly.

Her lips were pursed, showing a bit of stubbornness and a touch of vulnerability.

"Don't worry, it's not about going to sleep."

Sam winked, saying, "But, a little interest isn't too much to ask for, right?"

"Ah?"

Han Xiaowu opened her mouth in surprise, The next moment, Sam seized the opportunity and lowered his head...

Ten minutes later, With her clothes somewhat disheveled, Han Xiaowu covered her mouth, her face flushed, and she hurried away.

Sam sat in the chair, a smile on his face.

In the bedroom, A girl peeked out half of her head, secretly watching this scene...

...

November 11th, All was quiet, Sam took a day off.

December 12th.

Morning, Around eight o'clock.

Sam left the shelter, took out his tablet, and controlled drones to scout around the raiders' hideouts.

In the urban area, hardly any people or vehicles could be seen anymore, As radiation increased and temperatures dropped, fewer and fewer dared to leave their shelters.

The rioters, rampant in the past days, seemed unable to endure the cold, significantly reducing their activity.

Sam cautiously went out to the raiders' hideouts.

A small flat building, Coated with green radiation-proof paint, inside were some simple heating pads, generators, and so on, And a modest amount of food.

Sam naturally didn't hold back, taking everything.

Besides, He also found many instruments and materials in an old man's rudimentary lab, all related to physics and chemistry.

Sam took everything, resulting in the shelter's storage being unable to accommodate it all, Forcing him to place big and small boxes in the living room, Making the shelter's space seem much more cramped.

Inside the shelter, While Han Xiaowu was helping Sam move things and saw a bunch of scientific instruments, She was somewhat surprised and asked, "Sam, what are you planning to study?"

"Nothing much. Just took them since I saw them."

Sam casually said, "It's a pity, no fresh meat like pork, lamb, or fish. Other supplies are also scarce; these people probably weren't locals."

"But, we won't need these miscellaneous items on a regular basis!"

Han Xiaowu looked around, her brows slightly furrowed, "Our storage is already full..."

"Don't worry about it."

Sam smiled.

He was a man with high-tech at his disposal!

"Uh... alright!"

Han Xiaowu bit her lip, still somewhat skeptical in her heart, but she didn't question anything and continued to organize the supplies.

Watching her bustling about, Sam also showed a smile.

With someone helping, He had much more free time every day and wasn't as tired as before.

So it goes, "The work feels lighter when men and women work together" makes sense!

Moreover, After what happened yesterday, their relationship had further developed, He would occasionally stop the charming beauty and kiss her fiercely for a few minutes, his hands naturally not staying idle.

Life was very comfortable!

Snapping back to reality, Sam went to the living room and said in his mind: "The InfiniteShelter Upgrade System, open the shelter's model!"

The InfiniteShelter Upgrade System: "Yes!"

As he spoke, The light in front of Sam began to distort, weaving out a three-dimensional model of the shelter!

It showed the size of the space and each room!

"It's time to expand!"

"I previously traded some steel and concrete with the official shelters, so the points required shouldn't be much."

Sam's eyes flickered, Expanding the shelter would naturally be a big project for ordinary people, But in terms of materials, there weren't too high demands, just time-consuming and laborious!

But Sam didn't need to worry, with points, such manual labor could be done in a second!

"Let's expand the warehouse first!"

Sam thought for a moment and opened the property panel of the warehouse.

...

[Basic Warehouse]

Upgradable!

Upgrade direction: Large Capacity Safe Warehouse.

Branches: Expansion (100), Overall Materials (200), Security Door (50).

Introduction: You need a larger warehouse!

...

Sam: "Calculate the building materials for the warehouse, see how much can be saved!"

The Infinite Shelter Upgrade System: "Calculating... Upgrading the warehouse originally required 350 points, after using building materials, only 80 points are needed."

Indeed!

Sam revealed a smile and said, "Expand!"

As his voice fell, 80 points were deducted.

Silently, on the three-dimensional model of the shelter, The warehouse expanded backwards, Adding 100 square meters!

"100 square meters, huh? Not bad!"

Sam got up and went to check the warehouse.

Upon entering, He immediately noticed the significantly increased spare space.

And the new space, whether it was the walls or how it integrated with the overall structure of the shelter, was perfect!

It was as if the warehouse was originally this large!

After a thorough inspection, Sam nodded in satisfaction, Then returned to the living room, Looking at the three-dimensional model of the shelter, he began to think.

After today's settlement, he had earned 20 points, Adding to his existing points, and after deducting this expense, he had 191 points left!

For now, Upgrading the shelter had to be done step by step.

Sam thought for a long time, feeling recent backaches and physical exhaustion, he couldn't help but ask: "The InfiniteShelter Upgrade System, is there any kind of high-tech that can enhance the human body?"

The InfiniteShelter Upgrade System: "Host, there are many types that can meet your requirements."

Hearing this, Sam's eyes lit up, but remembering the previous gene chip, he calmed down and said, "Pick some that are suitable for me, list them out for me to see!"

The InfiniteShelter Upgrade System: "Yes!"

The next moment, A holographic screen appeared, On it were various building upgrade projects.

"Biological Laboratory"

"Genetic Potion Development Room"

"Gravity Simulation Chamber"

"Hyperdimensional Body Enhancement Room"
