[Welcome to the terraformed world. From now on, you will spend the rest of your life here.]
[The terraformed world has absorbed the world’s rules and merged with Doomsday Shelter. All players will travel there together.]
[The wilderness is littered with radiation, and danger lurks at every corner. Prolonged radiation exposure will cause distortion. Please settle down in your shelter as soon as possible. This is your only assurance.]
[Resources and crises coexist. The resources in the wilderness are the key to strengthening the shelter and strengthening yourself. You’ll need to actively explore and refresh resources every day.]
[The radiation from the night and disaster days will increase significantly. During this period, please try not to leave the shelter.]
[The shelter is built by the terraformed world. It is protected by the rules of the terraforming world. It has the ability to mark territory, expand construction, and shield super terraforming beasts… all of which can be extended by the shelter.]
[You are the legitimate natives and recognized players of the Terakoses. Cherish your identities.]
[You have a total of 30 minutes to settle down in the shelter.]
[Remaining time: 29 minutes and 32 seconds.]

Chen Chen opened his eyes suddenly and found himself in a forest.
There were weeds all around him, and some short trees were scattered around. In the distance, there were mountains and even taller trees.
The sky was blue, and the sun was hot. The blue was whitish, which in turn was dazzling.
“I’ve actually transmigrated into the game? No, this strange world should be a new world after merging.”
Chen Chen had started playing the game right after the launch of Doomsday Shelter. He had read many similar novels, so the thought crossed his mind when he saw the prompt.
He called out the interface from before, and a panel immediately appeared in his mind.
[Remaining time: 29 minutes 4 seconds]
It was still the same words, but Chen Chen noticed that his own information was beside the panel.
[Chen Chen]
[Age: 21
Vitality: 0.9
Strength: 1.2
Agility: 1.0
Intelligence: 1.2]
[Others: (Shelter not established, Not shown)]
The style of the panel was the same as in the game, except that there was a golden ball.
Located under the personal information, there seemed to be liquid gold flowing inside. It was very different from the white panel.
Golden Finger? Shelter function? Shelter Core? Or did everyone have it?
Without enough information, thinking about it would be useless. Besides, time was of the essence.
“I’d better build a shelter first.”
[Remaining time: 28 minutes and 11 seconds]
Chen Chen took a deep breath and looked around. His brain was working fast.
He was standing on a slight slope, so he could see his surroundings clearly.
He picked up his watch and looked at the sun. Using the survival knowledge in his mind, he quickly determined the direction.
With the place he was standing at as the center, he could see all four sides.
The forest on the north side was sparse, and in the distance, there was a mountain range that looked like a broken cliff.
There were forests to the east and west, and one could not see the end.
To the far south, one could vaguely point out the mountain peak, which had spots of white snow on it.
The further south he went, the thicker the forest became.
“I have two choices now. The first is to find a small slope nearby to build a shelter, and the second is to go to the north side of the mountain range.”
There were two types of shelters, above and below ground. In the game, each had its advantages and disadvantages. This, though, was the reality. If a person really lived underground, there would be lots of inconveniences.
In the later stages, the underground shelter would be wet and porous. The lack of visibility and other shortcomings could definitely be solved.
However, this was not a game. Chen Chen did not want to bet that he could get through the difficult early stages, so he directly excluded the underground.
Chen Chen thought silently, “After establishing a shelter on the slope, it will be very convenient to develop and expand. Visibility is good, but at the same time, it will be easy to be targeted by wild beasts. Safety is difficult to guarantee, and it is easy to be attacked but difficult to defend!
“The vegetation is rich, and there are usually many wild beasts. If a shelter is built on the cliff, there will be no need to worry about wild beasts attacking from the back. The possibility of wild beasts appearing in the East and West will also be significantly reduced. Only if the wild beasts come from the south will safety greatly increase.
“But the terrain near the cliff is lower than the slope. If there is a flood or an earthquake, it will be very difficult.”
The slope and the cliff had their pros and cons. Chen Chen could not help but frown.
Finally, after thinking for a while, his eyes became firm. “Go to the cliff. This is reality, after all. I have to try that guess!”
[Remaining time: 26 minutes and 24 seconds ]
After confirming the plan, Chen Chen tied his shoelaces and quickly headed north to the cliff slope.
The northern cliff was still quite far away, and he did not know if there would be any danger along the way.
However, this little adventure was clearly worth it compared to the long-term safety benefits.
After the shelter was established, he still had to go out to search for supplies. Even if there was danger, he had to go!

After running for a while, there was more gravel under his feet, and there were fewer weeds around him. Ahead of him were some shrubs and low trees.
Huff, Huff, Huff!
Chen Chen began to pant, and he began to sweat.
Other than him, there was only the wind blowing around him. There seemed to be no danger, but something hidden also seemed to be preparing for a fatal attack!
Suddenly, a shrub in the distance moved.
Chen Chen immediately stopped in his tracks.
He stared at the shrub in the distance, and his heart dropped.
This was a low-lying area. If there really were tigers and leopards in the shrub, he could only place the shelter at the previous spot.
After waiting for 30 seconds, there was no movement from the bushes.
[Remaining time: 14 minutes and 39 seconds ]
Chen Chen took two deep breaths and ran 50 meters away from the bushes towards the north.
Although his fitness was not bad, he had been running at full speed, and he felt like he was going to collapse.
Huff, Huff, Fuhhh! Huff, Huff, Fuhhh!
Chen Chen stared at his surroundings and tried to adjust his breathing.
Hold on, hold on.
Chen Chen gritted his teeth and held on for another minute.
Fortunately, there was nothing unusual.
Finally, Chen Chen saw the bottom of the cliff. There were only 2 minutes and 6 seconds left!
Feeling his heavy legs gaining a bit more strength, he gritted his teeth and continued to run.
[Remaining time: 57 seconds]
“I’m here, I’m here!”
Chen Chen immediately summoned his interface and chose to place the shelter.
Suddenly, a green, three-meter-long and two-and-a-half-meter-tall virtual cabin appeared in front of Chen Chen.
He wiped his sweat and pushed the model forward. The model immediately sank into the cliff wall!
It was done!
Since he didn’t see the model turn red, he immediately chose “confirm.”
The virtual image in front of him gradually solidified. The wooden door in front of him merged with the cliff. Shelter established!
[Ding! Shelter established. Interface function unlocked.]
Chen Chen could finally breathe a sigh of relief. He didn’t hurry to check the interface but walked to the shelter first.
This was Chen Chen’s guess. In Doomsday Shelter, the shelter could only be built on the ground or underground. When encountering a cliff, the virtual image would turn red, and construction wouldn’t commence.
However, this was all in reality, after all, and there was no reason the system could break through the soil on the ground but not the rocks on the cliff. Reality shouldn’t have such a restriction.
Reality proved that he was right. Now that he had a shelter that only needed guarding from one side, his sense of security soared!

Panting as he approached, Chen Chen placed his hands on the 1.5-meter-tall ledge and climbed up with his hands and feet.
This was another benefit of building a shelter on a cliff. It could be built higher above the ground, protecting against beasts and floods.
“Floods and beasts… Haha!”
Chen Chen chuckled happily as he opened the wooden door and entered.
He looked forward to see what the system panel of the deformed world looked like and what was inside the shelter..
