Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 77: Chapter 75 I guess they must have done that

Liang Yuan said, ”That’s exactly what I wanted to talk about.”

”The mutation process is not irreversible.”

”This process seems to be forcibly interrupted by external forces.”

”When I killed Liu Erlong, he was also in the process of mutation.”

”But in the end, he failed to complete his mutation and awakening, and I killed him forcibly.”

”I learned from that battle that treating a dead horse as if it’s still alive, I disrupted Ding Yan’s mutation process and restored her sanity.”

”So... I don’t suggest that everyone rushes to awaken their mutant abilities. At least, until we find a way to overcome the drawbacks of being controlled by emotions, we shouldn’t easily try to awaken our mutations.”

His words made everyone nod in agreement.

Although everyone felt a bit regretful, they really didn’t want to take the risk.

No one wanted to gain powerful abilities only to become a madman who knew only how to kill and destroy.

”I’ve said so much because I want to say that we now also have an expert with awakened mutant abilities. Facing Wang Yanmei, we are not completely without a chance.”

”What do you all think?”

Old Ma said, ”Can we wait for a few days before taking action? Wait for my injuries to heal, then I can help out.”

Zhao Kai said somewhat dejectedly, ”My hand... won’t recover quickly, but I still have my left hand. Brother Liang, Sister Ding, if you need me, just say the word.”

Liang Yuan smiled, ”Old Ma, Zhao Kai, you two focus on healing. To deal with Wang Yanmei, it’s not good to have too many people.”

”She is very fast. If we have too many people, we will just be targets.”

”Two or three people should be enough.”

”Just me, Brother Cai, and Ding Yan should be enough.”

”After dealing with Wang Yanmei, we will still need to check if there are other mutant creatures in the building.”

”You also have tasks. Try to find out which households in Building 76’s six units have pets. Units 3, 4, 5, and 6 have not been explored yet. What’s the situation over there? Are there any small groups or bullies like Liu Erlong? These all need to be investigated.”

”After dealing with Wang Yanmei, we will need to come back and do these tasks as well.”

”Also, we need to collect wood, batteries, fans, and similar items.”

Liang Yuan said a lot in one breath.

Everyone understood the front part, but couldn’t help but feel puzzled about the latter part.

Only Ding Yan understood what he intended to do and quickly asked, ”Are you planning to make a boat?”

Liang Yuan said solemnly, ”Making a boat is not easy. We don’t have the expertise here. My idea is to make a raft first.”

”We can’t stay in this building forever.”

”The food here will eventually run out, and we can’t survive on fish alone.”

”Without vegetables, without vitamins, we will get sick and die.”

”We need to find some land to settle on to truly survive.”

”This heavy rain, who knows when it will stop.”

Liang Yuan sighed, causing everyone to feel a sense of dread.

Yes, if this heavy rain never stops and the world is still mutating...

They can’t stay hidden in this building forever.

”But... to find land, the floodwaters have already reached the tenth floor. Where can we find land?” Granny Li asked worriedly.

Before Liang Yuan could respond, Zhao Kai answered, ”Brother Liang, are you planning to go to Sun Mountain or Meishan?”

His words made everyone’s eyes light up.

Old Ma couldn’t help but slap the mattress, ”That’s right, in the entire Linjiang City, the places with relatively high elevation are those mountains.”

”Although the highest mountain is Cangqiong Mountain, Sun Mountain nearby isn’t low either. I remember the official data, Sun Mountain’s elevation is around 340 meters, right? Just below Cangqiong Mountain, it’s the second-highest in Linjiang.”

Cai Zhi couldn’t help but say, ”That’s right, Sun Mountain is indeed high enough. I remember there are scenic spots, temples, and inns for tourists on the Sun Mountain peak. If we can get there, no matter how long the flood lasts, it shouldn’t submerge that area anytime soon.”

Liang Yuan nodded, ”Yes, if Sun Mountain gets submerged, Linjiang will be completely flooded.”

”It’s not just the high elevation; the main thing is there’s land.”

”With land, we won’t starve.”

Everyone felt a slight stir upon hearing this.

Chinese people have a special attachment to land.

No matter how good the city is, they can’t abandon the countryside.

Living off the land is an ingrained concept and awareness in every Chinese person’s genes.

Even in cities, ground-floor units with yards are more expensive than regular prime floors.

Why?

Isn’t it because of the piece of land that comes with the yard?

”Let’s not get too ahead of ourselves. This is just our current plan. Right now, the urgent matter is to gather resources.”

”Everyone rest for now. I invite you all to have lunch at my place later.”

”Sister Mei, I might need to trouble you later.”

Yang Mei was feeling troubled, thinking she was the most useless person in the team.

Even Ding Yan had awakened a mutant ability, while she could only rely on her looks, tagging along Liang Yuan like a vase.

Even if no one said anything, she herself felt guilty.

She worried about becoming a burden to the team again.

Hearing Liang Yuan assign her a task, she immediately felt a surge of joy. Instead of being unhappy, she was full of joy.

Being assigned a task meant she was useful, not a burden.

She nodded quickly, ”Yes, yes, everyone come over for lunch. I’ll cook something nice for everyone.”

Wu Qian quickly added, ”Don’t make it too lavish. We still need to save our food supplies.”
