8 Points Settlement, Upgrade

While Lorne was living comfortably, the people crowded in the government shelters were not.

The living space allocated to each family in the government shelter was very small.

Moreover, the beds in the government shelter were all made of iron frames. A metal bunk bed with two wooden planks on it formed two beds.

It was only enough for resting. Comfort was out of the question.

As people's standard of living continued to improve, it was undoubtedly a torture for modern people to live in such small and crude rooms.

Furthermore, the environment of the shelter was extremely harsh.

After all, a shelter had tens of thousands of people living in it. The government would only prioritize preserving their lives, and would not be so meticulous in other aspects.

For example, the problem of going to the toilet. There were so many people in the shelter. It was impossible to provide for all of them at once.

The scene in the toilets was the same as a public toilet that was not cleaned or maintained.

Another problem was the use of water. Lorne himself only solved it today.

The government had made changes to the shelters, and it was certain that there would be usable water. However, it could not be guaranteed how long it could last. Therefore, it had to be used moderately.

After all, it was already good enough to survive in the post-apocalyptic era.

....

After the meal, Lorne cleaned up the dishes and the residence. He took a sip of water from a bottle and placed it aside.

The environment outside was not very safe yet, and Lorne did not want to go out just to deal with some trash.

Therefore, Lorne placed the trash bag in a corner. He wanted to wait for the situation to stabilize before throwing it outside.

As his current life was pretty good, Lorne did not have any thoughts about going outside.

After eating, Lorne strolled around his level one technology city.

But soon, Lorne felt bored. After all, this place was only so big. He finished his tour in a short while.

After strolling around, Lorne felt that even if he moved while closing his eyes in this residence, he would not crash into anything.

For a modern person, a world without food delivery and the internet was colorless.

Although Lorne was a poor man, he was also a young man from the modern era. Therefore, he had a habit of surfing the internet. It would be very difficult to get used to the apocalypse life without the internet.

After walking around the house for a long time, Lorne realized that his residence was really boring. Then, he came up with a way to quickly pass his boring time.

Lorne quickly stopped walking and returned to his bedroom from the living room. He covered his head with the blanket and began to sleep.

In the post-apocalyptic life, Lorne had the system and was able to live a more relaxed and comfortable life than others.

However, Lorne had been in a state of high tension. Although the system seemed very powerful, Lorne had not been sure if it could withstand the disaster.

Only now did Lorne relax. That was why he slept soundly.

In his sleep, Lorne felt as though he had returned to the world before the disaster struck.

The city was lively and crowds of people moved in the streets. Most importantly, there were hot girls in the crowd.

While Lorne was drooling over the long legs in his dream, he heard a familiar mechanical voice.

The beautiful scene shattered. Lorne opened his eyes and woke up. What he saw was the pitch-black underground residence.

Lorne smiled bitterly. In the future, he could only see the once-prosperous city in his dreams.

Lorne immersed himself in his thoughts again. The system seemed to have sent him a lot of messages while he was asleep.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully surviving the first day of the apocalypse. Points+30]

[The host has built a water drawing device. It can continuously draw water. The host's water needs are guaranteed. Points+10]

[The host had a delicious dinner to maintain the joy of his body and mind. Points+10]

[The host has experienced a good sleep, and is more energetic. Points+20]

[After calculation, the host's actions yesterday earned a total of 70 points.]

[Remaining points: 194]

Through the system notification, Lorne realized that a day had passed. He wondered how the outside world was now.

However, when Lorne saw the points on the interface, his expression gradually relaxed.

"I gained a total of 70 points yesterday. The method of obtaining points doesn't seem to be fixed. However, there's no doubt that as time passes, my points will also slowly rise."

Lorne considered the rules of obtaining points in his mind, but he still could not figure it out. He only confirmed that the points would increase every day.

Lorne smacked his head. If he couldn't figure it out, then he wouldn't think about it anymore. He took out the ball pen he had upgraded earlier and followed the light to the power generator.

After a while, Lorne's residence lit up again.

Lorne looked at the generator in front of him and wondered if he should upgrade it.

After all, it would be too troublesome to run it manually every day.

Besides, if he upgraded some furniture that needed electricity in the future, this power generator wouldn't be enough.

With this in mind, Lorne began to look at the power generator in front of him. Soon, he saw the upgrade information of the power generator.

[Level 1 generator]

Upgrade plan 1: Upgrade the material of the device and increase the power output, allowing the device to generate more electricity. (20 points)

Upgrade plan 2: Change the structure of the generator so that the device can operate automatically. There is no need for the host to start it. (30 points)

Lorne looked at the two options in front of him. The two functions the system had given him were what he needed right now.

In addition, he had just settled his points today, so the remaining points seemed to be quite sufficient. Hence, with a wave of his hand, Lorne chose two options at the same time.

As the points on the panel decreased by 50, the generator in front of Lorne completed its transformation.

Lorne saw that the power generation efficiency on the interface had increased by two times, and he no longer needed to run it every day. He felt that this point was worth it.

The crisis of electricity was resolved.

The next problem was food.

Lorne thought of the bag of seeds he had brought back.
