My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!

t a terrifying pace.

“If I’m going to overtake these people, I’ll have to pick up the pace.
I have to get this title to level two in two hours!”

Su Mo stared at the opening leading out to the ocean.
His thoughts raced as he recalled the process that Garfield explained and demonstrated earlier, and then with a slight push, he jumped off Moore’s back into the water.

As the sun shone down brightly, and under the protection of the merman costume, the temperature of the water felt very comfortable and he did not feel even an ounce of water pressure.

“The first important step is to catch 50 fishes, bring them away from the ocean, and then release them!”

Su Mo watched as Moore went into a frenzy chasing the shoals of fish, after which he did not dawdle either as he began executing the first step of the process.

In this area of the ocean that Hope One was situated, most of the fish that had appeared looked similar to a dolphin.

No person on Earth had ever seen a fish like this but, in just half a day, it had already been named.
Most of the people on the wasteland, including Garfield, called it “treasure fish”.

It swam slowly, was not very cautious, and contained almost no bones.
These were the “advantages” of this treasure fish.

In fact, as soon as it was caught, it could be made into fresh sashimi slices because of the lack of pollution here compared to Earth.
This fish was the best source of food right now across the wasteland.

“Good little treasure fishies, come to me!”

With the costume and his physique, Su Mo’s swimming speed was as swift as an actual fish, cutting through the ocean waters.

Of course, these treasure fish were not cautious toward humans at all, and much less so toward other friendly marine creatures.

Su Mo did not miss with his first strike and he successfully caught four fishes in both hands.

He then flexed his legs, beating his tail against the water current, and surfaced.
After he made sure that his arms had cleared the surface of the water, Su Mo loosened his grip on the fishes and let them fall back into the ocean.

The fishes had to be caught and then released from midair.
Even if the treasure fishes were friendly by nature, they still swam away after being subjected to such treatment.

“Even if a fish was caught twice, only the first catch would only be counted, so I don’t have to worry about them swimming away!”

Su Mo floated on the surface of the water as it glistened under the sunlight.
The glow of the wasteland’s sun also began to soften as it painted a soft red color across the sky.

After Su Mo analyzed the situation on the surface briefly, he dived down once again.
Within just six minutes, he had completed the first step of the process.

At the same time, even though Su Mo noticed that the game panel had not issued any notifications, he did not panic.
Instead, he proceeded with the second step.

When the marine creatures appeared on the wasteland this time around, floating microbes and aquatic plants were included as well.

After Su Mo searched among the aquatic plants, he found a few white shrimp the size of a thumb latching onto the plants.

This type of shrimp was the treasure fish’s favorite food.

As for the second step of the process, as long as Su Mo could find enough white shrimp to feed 50 treasure fishes, he would complete the second step!

To other players on the wasteland, this was a very tedious task to perform.

Aquatic plants were often located ten meters below the surface.
With that kind of depth, few swimmers dared to risk it.

Thus, they could only float on the surface and use the most primitive fishing methods to try and uproot the plants or just head to the trading market to buy some white shrimp, which were currently very expensive, so that they could feed the treasure fishes.

However, to Su Mo, ten meters below sea level was no different from the depth of half a meter.
After four to five minutes of searching around, he found all the shrimp he needed to feed the treasure fishes.

As for feeding the fishes, that was also very easy.

The fishes that Moore caught were thrown into a large wooden barrel that floated on the water.
Moore had already captured 50 fishes and placed them into that huge barrel after just over ten minutes of effort.

After putting the fish food into the barrel, Su Mo looked on as the treasure fishes wolfed down the food.
He floated on the surface and stared into the distance, waiting patiently.

Approximately three minutes later, the game panel seemed to come alive, and a sweet-sounding notification rang in the air.

[The game has detected that player “Su Mo” has completed the requirements for the “Friend of the Ocean” title.
Designating a random mission to obtain the title.]

[Mission designation complete.
Your current mission is to save the treasure fishes inside the barrel.]

“Oh? So it’s this mission? Now that’s easy!”

After reading the game’s notification, Su Mo then shifted his gaze to the treasure fishes struggling inside the barrel.
He hollered out to Moore, consoled him, and then flipped the barrel over.

The next second, the treasure fishes frantically jumped into the water.
After they had swum about 25 meters away, the game then acknowledged that the mission had been completed.

[It has been detected that the mission is complete.
Congratulations to the player “Su Mo” for obtaining the title “Friend of the Ocean”.]

Su Mo focused his thoughts and switched the interface to the game’s title selection panel.
After switching from the “Hardworking Gardener” title to his newly obtained title, a sudden surge of power coursed through his body.

The power felt a little strange; it felt exactly like the power the three-pointed two-edged sword granted him as he held it in his hands.

Even though it belonged to him, it felt like there was still a barrier in between him and power, as if the game was reminding him that this was the function of a title.

Su Mo was not surprised at all.
After he realized he had activated the title completely, he got out of the water and sent a signal through his Bluetooth headset.

After a while, Su Mo looked on as Connie brought her vice captain, Li Li the black bear, with her along with approximately 40 other members of the foreign races.
They each held a wooden barrel similar to Moore’s.
Su Mo then delightfully waved at them, signaling that everyone could start the process as well.

Just like an amateur diving team, the foreign races’ did not look good going into the water, splashing water all across the surface.

As the vanguard, they did not know anything else other than swimming, which they were thankfully at least somewhat proficient at.

At that moment, as Su Mo observed the foreign races chaotically scrambling about looking for treasure fishes in the ocean, a smile suddenly appeared on Su Mo’s face.

Acts of kindness were required to level up his title.

According to the spirit of the notification Su Mo got when he received his title, these acts of kindness might refer to helping out the fishes in the sea.

After he waited more than twenty minutes, after Connie gave the signal, Su Mo quickly began to speed through the ocean, flipping over the wooden barrels of the foreign races.

Each basin contained around 60 fishes.

After he flipped over the 25th basin, the long-awaited notification finally rang out once more.

[Dear player “Su Mo”, it has been detected that you have reached the required kindness value.
Automatically triggering a mission to level up the “Friend of the Ocean” title.
Will you accept?]

“Yes!”

[Mission designation complete.
Your current mission is to, while in combat, defeat the mischievous lightning bear warrior!]
