Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

Li Yu nodded and said:

”It’s possible, but Ma Di said this Outer Space Meteor might have been taken away by the Government or the Western Alliance, or it could still be at the original pharmaceutical company.

But after the Doomsday, the Government collapsed; I went to the Western Alliance before, and there was no trace of the meteorite there.

The pharmaceutical company was in M City, and who knows what that place is like now.

Moreover, after the Doomsday, it was so chaotic, who knows where that stone ended up, it’s hard to find....”

He knew very well that until two years later, before he was reborn, the whereabouts of the rumored Outer Heaven Meteorite were still unknown.

Searching now was akin to looking for a needle in a haystack, the chances of finding it were slim.

Hearing Li Yu say this, Second Uncle sighed with a bit of disappointment and said:

”Take it slow, we’ll find it eventually. Even if we don’t, as long as we keep researching, we’ll manage to develop a solution for the zombies one day.”

”Hmm.” Li Yu nodded silently, not continuing the conversation.

Some things can only be left to fate.

....

Coming down from the duty room, Li Yu went to the First Outer City.

After nearly two months of recuperation, He Chao and Gongsun Jing’s wounds had long since healed.

”How is it? Are the injuries completely healed?” Li Yu asked He Chao with a faint smile on his face.

Hearing Li Yu ask this, He Chao immediately dropped to the ground and did over twenty push-ups in one go.

After finishing, he said, slightly out of breath, ”Director Li, absolutely no problem now, see, I can handle this easily!”

Li Yu smiled and said, ”Alright, stop showing off. Since you’re better now, you’ll need to take over the matters in the Outer City and get things moving.”

”Sure, hehe.” He Chao replied with a simple smile.

During He Chao’s injury, Second Uncle had been managing the Outer City, but he also had to take care of things in the Inner City, like planting, breeding, and various other trivial matters, which kept him extremely busy.

Now that He Chao was back, it could lighten Second Uncle’s load.

Leaving the First Outer City, Li Yu passed by the greenhouse and saw the Noble Consort walking to the door from the greenhouse.

In the heavy rain, the Noble Consort seemed to be holding an iron basin to fill it with water. Upon seeing Li Yu, she quickly waved, and Li Yu waved back, then returned to the Inner City.

Back in the Inner City, Li Yu flipped through the inventory from the Big Camphor Tree Base that Li Yuan brought over.

Rice: 978 tons.

Corn cobs: 356 tons.

...

Salt: 59 tons.

Sugar: 45 tons.

.....

After taking a rough look, he had a good idea of things; whenever he saw these supplies, he always felt a deep sense of happiness.

He had endured the hardest days, so seeing a warehouse full of supplies, he no longer worried about starving to death.

This feeling is something many Cooperative Personnel might deeply understand.

Looking at the torrential rain outside, Li Yu put down the iPad in his hand and murmured, ”This rain, counting the days, should be about over.....”

The continuous heavy rain for over a month; the base’s drainage system was perfect, with no flooding.

But if they went outside to have a look, they’d find many originally low-lying areas turned into lakes.

Even some national highways were submerged, with fallen trees floating on the water’s surface.

Occasionally, a frog or two would leap onto a piece of wood to rest, only for a hand to suddenly emerge from the water beneath, grabbing the frog and stuffing it into a mouth.

In Doomsday, whether for humans or animals, it was a terrifying disaster.

.....

In Wuyi Mountain.

Tui Zi weakly said to Chen Delong:

”Brother Chen, let’s just slaughter this squirrel; if we don’t, there really won’t be any meat on it soon, see how thin it is.”

An Sheng eyed the squirrel intently, his eyes glowing green.

Even Zhuo Jun licked his lips and swallowed hard.

Seeing them like this, Chen Delong got up and walked to the bag of grain, lifting it up.

Very light.

At most eight pounds!

And a sixth of a piece of smoked black pork.

These foods were their last lifeline; they were waiting for the rain to stop to have a satisfying meal and, while they had strength, think of every possible way to hurry back to the Big Camphor Tree Base.

They still stored some food in the base, and as long as they got back, they would survive! They wouldn’t starve to death.

Originally, the mission should have been completed in at most two weeks, but it was dragged out to nearly two months.

The main issue was they found those supplies but didn’t transport them back, and even if they hadn’t, they still lost so many team members.

Even with the loss of so many members, they questioned if the remaining four of them could still manage to get back.

The more they thought about it, the more frustrated they became.

”Eat, eat, eat! This small squirrel isn’t even a pound, barely enough to fill a dental gap.” Chen Delong stated.

Upon hearing this, Tui Zi’s face broke into a blooming smile, and he quickly got up, picked up the piece of wood beside him, and with a smack, he killed the squirrel that was so starved it weighed only a few ounces.

Chirp, chirp.

Bam!

The squirrel met its end.

Tui Zi tossed the furry squirrel into the fire.

”What are you doing? Aren’t you going to pluck the fur? Who eats it like that?” An Sheng asked somewhat agitatedly.

”You don’t understand; you don’t know how to eat it. Burn off the fur with fire, then wash it with rainwater, isn’t that faster?” Tui Zi explained.

With that, he glanced at the pine tree forest.

The others also cast their sights over.
