Chapter 241: Psychic Energy Water! Upgrade!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“What was predicted by the talisman actually came true!”
“Does it mean that I will let these trees remain after I see their properties?”
After seeing the attributes of the Source Energy Fruit trees clearly, Su Mo did not feel ecstatic just yet, but instead he felt a sense of uneasiness at the fact that he was being read.
Future, past and present.
The passage of time was always a paradox that was difficult to explain!
The main world sat in the center of two other timelines. A pair of eyes seemed to hover in the sky above the entire wasteland, watching every struggling human and foreign race below.
As if following each person’s every move, a corresponding thread of fate seemed to dance, constantly creating future outcomes.
“If other people also received such a talisman that could predict the future, wouldn’t they be able to predict my actions ahead of time?”
Staring at the fruit tree Moore was holding, Su Mo drew out the half-charged Divulgence of Heaven’s Secret talisman. His mind was haunted by thoughts, quickly thinking of ways to resolve this conundrum.
“Previously in the world simulated by the talisman, all the fruit trees were lush and green, but there was no fruit growing on them.”
“There are two possibilities:”
“The first is that, in that time and space, I cultivated the trees and had taken all the fruits away.”
“The second is that the future simply cannot predict what I will do with the fruit tree, whether I’ll water and irrigate it, or whether I will do what I did just now… Which was to uproot it!”
When considering logical explanations, even Zhong Qingshu was not as clear-headed as Su Mo.
This was not only innate, but also the inevitable result of consuming psychic energy water over a long period of time, as well as the improvement of his physical and mental capabilities.
A wise person reflecting a thousand times could still make a mistake.
If one wanted to improve the correctness of their reasoning, their brain’s computation ability and efficiency had to be high. More reliable results could be speculated and more accurate data models could be constructed if one’s ability in this aspect was higher.
“The talisman couldn’t simulate my system, indicating that the system must be more advanced than the talisman, or…”
“More advanced than this side of the game world as well.”
“So as long as I possess the system, which acts as a variable, it will be difficult for others to predict my movements with items similar to this talisman.”
Having figured this out, Su Mo stopped worrying about the fact that his future might be seen by other people and relaxed his mind.
“Since the talisman has predicted, based on my personality, that I’ll keep the fruit trees…”
“However, after discovering the extent of the flood disaster, how would I still have the same perspective? It is obvious that the future is already changing!”
After surmising that the future was already changing, Su Mo looked up at the bright moon high in the sky. For some reason, Su Mo suddenly thought of the coming punishment disaster.
If the future predicted by the talisman was uncertain, it meant that it was merely an item that simulated the future.
If the prediction was true, and the talisman could really see the future, but for some reason the future was beginning to change, then the cause of the punishment disaster was now evident.
“The game world here has veered out of control.”
Su Mo took Magoo’s notebook out and flipped through it from beginning to end. There was no mention of the punishment disaster.
There was also no mention of the future and past.
In the wasteland where Su Mo currently resided, both the future and past timelines had sprung up constantly since the death of the Heavenly Dog Pseudo God. They all happened to be in his vicinity, too.
All the game settings that were supposed to appear in the distant future now appeared one after the other without any semblance of order.
“I hope everything isn’t as bad as I’m speculating, otherwise I’m afraid that the future of humankind will be even darker than that of Magoo’s time!”
Su Mo shook his head, throwing all his speculative thoughts about the future to the back of his mind. Su Mo solemnly elevated the importance of the lost satellite base that might hold the truth to the highest level.
“Moore, carry this fruit tree back. We don’t need to deal with the rest for now. Allow me to think about it first.”
Many large and small trees blocked the way to the Underground Shelter. Earth Tiger could not drive in, so Su Mo could only walk through the trees while heading back to the shelter.
Luckily, the shell structure of the rotary tiller had already been completed. He only needed to use survival points to upgrade it before it could be put into use.
Su Mo summoned the system panel. He still had 26,000 survival points remaining. He noticed that, after the input of various materials, he only needed 2800 points to complete the upgrade, so he did not hesitate to click on the upgrade.
The emerald green light displayed the powerful engine that was the heart of the rotary tiller, as well as the thick black roller attached to the blade shaft.
Several black tracks that looked very solid were wrapped around the key components of the machine, and the machine looked way more grand sporting a gray and black paint job!
Moore, who was standing in the corner with a small tree in his arms, was instantly attracted by the rotary tiller.
Looking at Moore, who was already starry-eyed, and then at the saplings outside that were growing taller and taller, Su Mo returned to the second floor, collected today’s portion of diesel and loaded it into the rotary tiller’s fuel tank.

He twisted the key, and the machine started up!
A gust of black smoke came out of the exhaust behind the engine and rose straight up. Su Mo released the handbrake, stepped on the gas, and the rotary tiller began to slowly move forward.
During the initial stages of the design, the person who drew this prototype blueprint was very ingenious. He designed a push button that could drop the rotary blades when pressed.
As soon as the red button was pressed, the blade shaft would be slowly lowered and begin to work. The blades rotated in tandem with the vehicle.
This propelled the cut soil blocks backward. After impacting with the baffle, the soil would break apart further and fall to the surface, and then would be leveled flat by the drag board.
The principle behind it was very simple, and the machine was easy to use. After orienting it toward where Earth Tiger was located, Su Mo looked at the saplings on the ground and picked a spot. Next, he stepped on the gas pedal and the vehicle started to move forward slowly.
No matter how stubborn the roots were, the sharp tip of the blades would cut through them.
In just three to five seconds, the roots of the tree, which had required the concerted efforts of one man and one bear warrior, were uprooted by the rotary blades. A feeling of pleasure rose from the bottom of Su Mo’s heart.
“So what if there are at least hundreds of trees in this forest? I just have to retain a few of them to ensure that they bloom and bear fruit, and that would be more than enough!”
The rotary teller did not only uproot the saplings, but also uprooted the image of a fixed future along with it.
The process was repeated until the road to the outside world was no longer blocked by the saplings. Only after that did Su Mo stop.
“Moore, you’ve learned how to operate it after watching me just now, right?”
As soon as the uprooting process began, Moore spontaneously ran alongside the rotary tiller, a sense of eagerness and anticipation welling up in his eyes.
Hearing Su Mo’s words, Moore nodded his bear head impatiently; his eyes overflowing with the eagerness to try out this new machine.
Su Mo got out of the vehicle, and Moore got in. After determining the area that would be reserved, Su Mo decided to eradicate all the other trees, leaving not even a single plant.
“Source Energy Fruit trees must be watered with psychic energy water.”
“I originally wanted to save survival points and wait until next time to upgrade the psychic energy water well, but now it seems that it’s necessary to upgrade it!”
After the construction of the psychic energy water well, its prohibitively high cost as well as its characteristics made Su Mo decide that he would not put a lot of survival points into it.
Every 500 Survival Points could increase the daily collection by 100 millimeters.
3000 points could increase the purity of psychic energy water once, and 5000 points could improve the quality of psychic energy water once.
Su Mo previously could not afford those exorbitant expenses, but with the current survival points on hand, he could now invest in upgrading it!
Moore was now happily engaged in the task of uprooting trees. Calculating the cost mentally, Su Mo returned to the psychic energy water well on the second floor of the Underground Shelter.
Each additional liter of production would cost 5000 survival points. Su Mo did not hesitate to exclude this option as he had not yet become a rich magnate.
The only two remaining items that could be upgraded were the purity and efficacy.
“Purity is easy to understand in the sense that it improves the concentration of the psychic energy water. Upgrading its purity will need less points, but the upgrade direction after that is unclear…”
Su Mo looked at the blue light dots floating around the psychic energy water well. Among the two choices, Su Mo chose one. With a thought, 3000 survival points were deducted for the upgrade.
At the same time, two blue lights naturally emerged slowly from his hands. After locating the psychic energy water well, the lights entered the well with a whooshing sound.
Wow!
The next moment, under the stimulation of the blue light, a pillar of light rose directly from the well and struck the wall above, illuminating the entire crop culture room in a ghostly blue glow.
The number of faintly detectable light dots in the psychic energy water increased gradually until they had doubled in number.
“The blue lights should be representative of the energy in the psychic energy water, so enhancing its purity is basically enhancing its energy concentration.”
“Then the remaining option, which is the efficacy, should correspond to the healing and physique enhancing effects of the psychic energy water.”
Su Mo tried to focus his attention on the well and, sure enough, the properties of the psychic energy water well were now different compared to before.
[Psychic Energy Water Well Extractor (Rare)]
[Description: For inexplicable reasons, the well has absorbed psychic energy crystals and now possesses the ability to capture dark matter.]
[Current efficiency:7200ml/day (300ml/hour)]
[Energy concentration: 0.05%]
[Upgrade directions: Purity (15000), Efficiency (500), Resistance to low temperatures (200), Efficacy (5000)…]
“The first upgrade only required three thousand points, but the second upgrade requires fifteen thousand points! Really, items with psychic energy are all crazy expensive to upgrade!”
Su Mo looked once again at the cost needed to upgrade the efficacy, gritted his teeth, and spent 5000 more survival points.
This time, the light seeping out from his body was no longer blue, but instead the familiar green. The light enveloped the well for about a minute or two before the water regained its calm state.
“Survival points come and go quickly. I had 26000 points but, in the blink of an eye, I only have 15000 left. There are no big events happening recently, so I must spend them sparingly!”
The upgraded properties of the psychic energy water naturally emerged after Su Mo extracted a palmful of crisp psychic energy water.
After spending 8000 points in a row, the psychic energy water received a qualitative upgrade for the first time, and now had a new effect!
