Apocalypse: Transmigrated with an Overlord System
Chapter 153: Convenience Store Opening!

Chapter 153: Chapter 153: Convenience Store Opening!

The system’s prompt sound was still echoing in her ears, but Liora did not take action immediately. She lay on the brand new alloy seat, looking up at the gradually darkening sky, muttering to herself:

"Is it necessary to complete task one first? No hurry, I can deal with goal one later. Let’s get the second one done first."

She turned over and sat up, and her spirit recovered a little, and then called out the system interface.

"System, how to upgrade and activate this ’primary food factory’?"

The system responded quickly, and the tone was as calm and efficient as ever. Liora realized even the system had become more tolerant towards her, and it was particularly more active in building the base.

[This factory is a virtual function module, and no physical construction is required. It is currently at Lv.1 and can only produce 100 instant noodles per week.]

[Upgrade method: Consume resources and complete designated tasks to increase productivity.]

[Just build a sales terminal to sell the factory products to the outside world, without building a physical factory.]

Liora was stunned, "In other words, I only need to build a store selling instant noodles to complete the activation?"

[Yes, building and linking a ’functional sales building’ is considered to have completed the food factory activation task.]

"... This is too simple." She paused and frowned again, "But only producing instant noodles is too simple. In the future, the base will expand, and this amount of food is not enough."

She immediately thought of something and immediately asked:

"System, how can I get more kinds of food? For example, compressed biscuits, canned food, dry food, etc."

The system paused for half a second before responding calmly:

[New food production modules can be obtained in the following ways:

Complete the relevant tasks issued by the system.

Explore the world and obtain the lost complete food production equipment module.

Note: In the post-disaster world, most factory equipment has been damaged and scrapped, making it difficult to identify and repair. Please choose the acquisition method carefully.]

Hearing this, Liora was silent for a moment.

She certainly knew that in this apocalypse, large factories were almost all ruins, and the machinery and equipment scattered among the ruins were in tatters. Even if they were picked up intact, they might not be usable. What’s more, she was not an expert, and she couldn’t recognize most of the equipment at all.

She lowered her head and sighed, "Then it’s more reliable to take the task route."

She opened the system task bar and flipped through the side quests related to food unlocking. Sure enough, almost all of them were construction tasks or sales volume tasks.

Her eyes fell on one of the tasks:

[Task name: Basic food expansion]

[Task goal: Sell more than 1,000 instant noodles]

[Task reward: Unlock a new food type - compressed biscuit module]

"As long as the noodles are sold, it can be unlocked?" Her eyes lit up, and then she calmed down.

"In other words, just wait for someone to come and buy automatically."

The task is big, but not difficult. The most important thing is that she only needs to build an automatic sales building to achieve uninterrupted operation all day.

She immediately opened the mall to search for a suitable building. Finally, she found a small convenience store frame with a complete structure.

System prompt:

[Do you want to purchase the building construction right: Doomsday Convenience Store (Automatic Sales Type)]

[Survival points required: 25,000]

Liora did not hesitate and clicked "Confirm".

Then, a new requirement popped up immediately:

[Materials required for construction:

Wood × 500

Stone × 100]

She stared at the two numbers and her mouth twitched violently.

"500 wood? 100 stones?" She suddenly felt her scalp tighten, "Why does it need wood and stones now..? But she immediately answered herself—is it because she was building the store from scratch and not just renovating an old building?"

She looked around, the entire base was only land with few buildings. Wood and stone could only rely on her to go out to collect or find ways to dig.

She pinched her eyebrows with an irritated look, and suddenly remembered that she still had shadows. So, she immediately summoned several shadows.

"Go, help me collect wood and stone." All of them nodded obediently. Now they were used to strange orders from their master.

Several black shadows turned into streams and scattered under her command, looking for available resources in the ruins.

A few minutes later, the shadows returned one after another, carrying broken wood and broken stones on their backs, and some even dragged old door panels and dismantled beams and put it in front of her.

Liora was really impressed with their speed of work. She sighed, if not for her shadows, she would have to collect this material by herself. But not now... her shadows were all very reliable and cute... they worked too efficiently...

So she generously praised them, and one shadow gently wrapped around her wrist and rubbed against her... it was happy and shy... Liora only laughed at their interaction and rubbed them... soon the shadow disappeared and returned back to the soul realm, and the others followed too. But not without affectionately rubbing against her... she also generously patted them...

Liora was really attached to them... after the strange parasite was removed from their soul, they were all very clingy to her... Liora smiled at the thought and opened her system panel again after storing all the items in her space.

And the items instantly disappeared as soon as they were stored in the space, and a new notification popped up.

[Current materials: Wood 513, Stone 108]

[Construction conditions are met. Do you want to start building the "Doomsday Convenience Store" immediately?]

Liora smiled gently, "Let’s get started."

After a while, the ground shook slightly, and an area seemed to be activated. Several mechanical arms rose from the ground, quickly assembled, welded, and finalized. A simple-looking automatic convenience store was completed in a few minutes and stood not far from the dormitories or buildings.

The signboard read: "Dawn Convenience Store."

She clicked on the building status interface:

[Connected to the factory production line]

[Current inventory: 100 instant noodles]

[Sales price: Crystal cores ×50]

[Functional status: In operation · Automatic replenishment · Open all day]

Liora nodded with satisfaction.

She knew that with more and more people in the future, this convenience store would be her source of wealth. And it was only a matter of time to complete the task of "selling one thousand copies".

Looking at this brand new and modern little store, she suddenly felt unreal and was very happy. She could not wait to bring her friends here.
