Reborn with Nothing but My Farm and Vengeance in the Apocalypse novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255: Chapter 255

These two structures, much like The Arcadian Ranch and The Arcadian Warehouse before them, had materialized out of thin air right after the system’s notification sounded. It was simply magical.

Melody Summers found one of the rectangular structures to be very familiar. She thought for a moment and recalled seeing something similar on TV before—an Underwater Oil Rig!

Next to the Underwater Oil Rig, a square, white platform had appeared. From a distance, a ship-shaped building stood upon it.

Melody’s heart began to race at the sight—

’An Offshore Oil Field?!’

’The Odyssey Station?!’

She quickly dropped the scallops in her hands, ran back along the pier, and climbed aboard her yacht.

She then piloted the yacht all the way to the front of the Underwater Oil Rig.

The Underwater Oil Rig was like a steel behemoth, supported by countless thick steel pillars rooted firmly in the seabed. It blended seamlessly with the surrounding ocean, as if it had grown from the depths itself.

The platform was fully equipped with all sorts of facilities. Enormous oil tanks, towering drilling derricks, and a complex web of pipelines intertwined to form a magnificent industrial tableau.

"How incredible..."

Melody marveled, tilting her head back. This was far more breathtaking than anything she had ever seen on television!

She had always thought the rigs on TV looked like small little things, but the real one was so immense!

Just then, the system’s voice sounded again—

[The "Offshore Oil Field" area is equipped with professional machinery responsible for extracting petroleum energy from the seabed.]

[The extracted petroleum undergoes refining processes such as crude oil distillation, catalytic cracking, thermal cracking, and hydrocracking to produce various fuel products, including gasoline and diesel.]

[In addition to fuel products, petroleum can also be refined into various other products, such as petroleum solvents, chemical raw materials, lubricants, paraffin wax, petroleum asphalt, and petroleum coke.]

[Please select, Host: Begin underwater petroleum extraction and processing?]

Melody quickly replied, "Begin!"

[Acknowledged. The "Offshore Oil Field" area has commenced underwater petroleum extraction and processing.]

[All products resulting from petroleum processing will be synced to a dedicated area in the "Dimensional Warehouse".]

Melody was overjoyed. The system had given her a mine before, and now it had given her an oil field!

’From this day forward, I’m someone who owns oil!’

’I’ll never have to worry about running out of energy again!’

Melody was so overcome with joy she was seeing stars. She hugged Albus in her arms and mused, "We have our own oil field now! Do you think the US military would attack us immediately if they found out we had oil here?..."

...

Seeing the machinery of the Underwater Oil Rig begin to RUMBLE to life, Melody steered her yacht toward the square, white platform nearby.

This white platform had to be the "Odyssey Station" the system had mentioned.

Compared to the massive and majestic oil rig, the Odyssey Station seemed delicate and small.

The entire Odyssey Station was composed of two parts: the platform and the building on top of it.

From a distance, it looked like a model ship placed on a white marble tabletop.

This white marble platform was about half the size of a soccer field. Its surface was as smooth as a mirror, glinting and sparkling as it reflected the sunlight. The edges of the platform were smooth and even, as if they had been meticulously polished.

The ship-shaped building resting on the white marble platform reminded Melody of The Valerius Opera House, which she had seen in textbooks before.

Melody moored her yacht at the pier in front of the Odyssey Station, then hopped off and set foot on the white platform.

Waves lapped against the platform’s edge from time to time, sending up sprays of white foam.

Melody crossed the white platform and walked to the entrance of the ship-shaped building. She studied the wave-like patterns on the exterior walls as she stepped inside.
