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

Chapter 128: Chapter 92: Trading with Building 75, Add More!_3

”Mutants? What mutants?”

”Just like those mutant fish in the flood, humans can mutate too.”

”What? Humans can mutate?”

”Yes, and let me tell you something scary—not only did Wang Yanmei mutate, but there are mutant creatures in Unit Two as well.”

”You mean those mutant cats on the eleventh floor?”

”Weren’t those mutant cats staying downstairs, catching fish to eat?”

”That’s old news. The mutant cats were killed by that tough guy from Unit One, and even Wang Yanmei is dead.”

”So what mutant creature are you talking about?”

”It’s on the thirty-first floor. Xu Lihua, you know her, right?”

”You mean that chatterbox Xu?”

”Yes, she turned into a mutant and killed many people. She was feeding her dog with live humans at home. Luckily, that tough guy from Unit One intervened and killed Xu Lihua, or who knows how many more people would have died.”

”What? No wonder there have been so many people disappearing in Unit Two. Wang Younian, Zhang Dazhi, Zhou Xin—everyone said they were killed by that ghost woman from Unit One. Now it seems like they were probably killed by Xu Lihua.”

”My god, what is happening to this world?”

...

The atmosphere in Unit Three is very strange now. People who didn’t dare to step outside are now all gathering in the hallway.

On the twenty-first floor, a few old men are sitting together, discussing today’s events.

”Old Zheng, the news is spreading like wildfire outside. That guy from Unit One did something huge.”

”Yes, Guoqiang, I’ve heard. That young man even talked to you once. Do you think we can go back to Unit One now?”

”Old Zheng, we’re all getting on in years. Living in the hallway like this isn’t a solution.”

”Yes, people in Units Four and Five are also asking about it. I heard there are still people selling buns in Unit One.”

”Guoqiang, your niece’s situation might finally have some hope.”

”Yes, Old Zheng, people from Unit Six are probably scared now. I heard that young man has already publicly announced that anyone who dares to bully or harass women will be dealt with by him. Maybe he can help your niece.”

...

Zheng Guoqiang rubbed his temples, feeling a rush of anxiety as he listened to the discussions around him.

Since Liang Yuan released them from the rooftop, they had fled to Unit Three to hide, fearing that Liu Erlong and his group would capture them again.

They never expected so much news to come out of Unit One in just a few days.

Not only was that bastard Liu Erlong dead, but new horror stories had also emerged.

The mutant cats from Unit Two had already become common knowledge.

Then gunshots were heard in the hallway, and that guy named Liang Yuan had swept through Units One and Two, showing a determination to restore order in Building 76.

He fled to Unit Three with the intention of reaching Unit Six.

His niece lived in Unit Six, and he originally wanted to seek refuge with her.

But the hallway between Units Three and Four was already locked.

After some inquiries, they found out that a group in Unit Six had taken control of Units Four, Five, and Six.

And it seemed like his niece had been captured by that group, and he couldn’t contact her.

He wanted to go to Unit Four but was too afraid, fearing they would treat the elderly like slaves on the rooftop, just like Liu Erlong’s group did.

”This can’t go on. That young man seems to have a gun. Maybe finding him can solve the issue with the people in Unit Six.”

With this thought, he gritted his teeth and said, ”Alright, let’s go find that young man!”

...

Unit Six, Room 3212.

The owner of this room was Wang Ze.

Before the great flood, he was a migrant worker doing projects. During the day, he was on construction sites, and at night, drinking with clients.

Despite his young age, he was already in poor health.

He didn’t earn much money, and his body was falling apart.

It was a struggle just to make the down payment and barely buy a top-floor apartment, thinking it would give him an edge in future marriage prospects.

But he never expected that even though he bought a house, he still failed in over ten blind dates.

The reason was simple—he owed over a million in loans, had aging parents without pensions, and a younger brother to support.

Many women rejected him outright after hearing his situation.

The few who reluctantly agreed to a meal were pressured by their families.

No woman in her right mind would willingly shoulder such a heavy debt, take care of elderly parents without pensions, and support a younger brother constantly in need of money.

Moreover, with housing prices falling in recent years, he was considered foolish for buying at a high price.

Women were smart—why would they date someone like him?

So, he remained single and turned thirty-two without a girlfriend.

Then the great flood came, changing everything.

At first, like everyone else, he thought the heavy rains were just a seasonal monsoon.

A month later, the water level rose to nearly half a person’s height.

Everyone started panic-buying food, but he remained unconcerned.

As a young person, he thought they were overreacting, believing the government would soon step in, making stockpiling food unnecessary.

But then the torrential rains continued, with leaders on TV urging unity and self-care.

At that point, he panicked and rushed to buy food.

But it was already too late—stores were submerged, with nothing to buy.

He had no choice but to catch fish to eat.

He was clever enough to be among the first to catch mutant fish.

Not only did he catch fish, but he also grilled and preserved them while there was still electricity and gas.

Living off these mutant fish, he survived for two months.

Then the outside world descended into chaos, with people looting, seizing homes, and abusing women.

As a humble worker, he wouldn’t dare break the rules and stayed home.

Until one day, his neighbor, the girl he secretly admired—Zheng Yuanyuan—was forcibly taken by a few men.

Her screams of terror pushed him over the edge, and he rushed out.

That time, he got beaten badly and almost died.

But it was also during this near-death experience that he awakened his mutant ability.

And so, he became the de facto ruler of Units Four, Five, and Six.
