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

Chapter 285: Chapter 145 Announcing Departure, Yang Mei’s Thoughts

The lake’s surface surged with waves, large chunks of ice freezing the water flow.

On the sixteenth floor of Building 76, Zhao Kai took a deep breath, staring at the movement on the lake.

Liang Yuan stood beside him, his expression gradually relaxing.

”Looks like he’s done for.”

Zhao Kai also let out a sigh of relief, saying, ”With so many mutated creatures underwater, even if that old bastard isn’t eaten by the frog monsters and those creatures, he’ll definitely die of oxygen deprivation.”

Liang Yuan still felt uneasy. He watched from the top for a while longer and only relaxed after confirming Zheng Guoqiang hadn’t surfaced.

He said in a serious tone, ”We’ve learned a lesson this time. That old bastard Zheng Guoqiang has long been dissatisfied with me, hiding among the residents and has even awakened a mutant ability.”

”If he hid his intention and ambushed us, the consequences would be unthinkable.”

Upon hearing this, Zhao Kai imagined Zheng Guoqiang covered in bone spikes, ambushing him.

His back turned cold, ”Indeed, if his ability was used for close combat ambushes, it would be truly hard to defend against. Among us, probably only Sister Ding could react in time.”

Ding Yan’s ability was empowerment. With a thought, empowering energy would automatically appear on any part of her body, protecting her.

But the others didn’t have this capability.

Of course, Liang Yuan could also react. His spiritual telekinesis was also a matter of a thought to create a telekinesis wall to block the opponent.

If there was just a bit of time to react, Liang Yuan naturally had countless ways to kill Zheng Guoqiang.

The reason Zheng Guoqiang escaped this time was because Liang Yuan unexpectedly awakened his mutant ability, causing him to be distracted.

Speaking of mutant abilities, Liang Yuan felt somewhat impatient, eager to study his superpower immediately.

But now was not the time. He took a deep breath, suppressing his impatience, and said, ”Notify everyone to go to the rooftop.”

Zhao Kai quickly nodded, ”Okay, I’ll have each team notify the others.”

Liang Yuan nodded and walked upstairs.

At this moment, Ding Yan came rushing down urgently.

Seeing Liang Yuan, her anxious expression instantly relaxed.

She quickly walked over and asked, ”Are you okay?”

Liang Yuan smiled, ”Don’t worry, I’m fine.”

Zhao Kai, standing by, laughed, ”Brother Liang, Sister Ding heard the old man said you were ambushed and immediately rushed to find you.”

Ding Yan glared at him, ”I have faith in you. You can deal with him by yourself.”

Zhao Kai teased and chuckled.

Liang Yuan naturally knew she was worried about him. He stepped forward, looking at her slightly reddened eyes, and softly smiled, ”Don’t worry, I still have a lot of things to do. How could I fall here?”

Ding Yan felt a tremor in her heart as she met his gaze. She turned her head away, not looking at him, and said, ”I knew you were tough. Alright, if there’s nothing else, I’ll be going.”

Feeling a bit flustered inside, she quickly found an excuse to leave.

...

Half an hour later, on the rooftop.

Amidst the storm, a plastic tent was set up on the rooftop.

Almost all the residents had gathered under the tent, discussing among themselves.

”What do you think Mr. Liang called us here for this time?”

”I don’t know. Could it be related to that mutated old man earlier?”

”Probably. I never expected that we have people awakening superpowers among us, and hiding so deeply. Clearly, they have ill intentions.”

”I think I know that old man. Isn’t he Zheng Yuanyuan’s uncle?”

”Hey, now that you mention it, I remember too. Isn’t Zheng Yuanyuan Wang Ze’s woman? No wonder the old man hid. He must have really intended to target Mr. Liang.”

”That old man is truly blind. Mr. Liang is far stronger than Liu Erlong and Wang Ze. Targeting Mr. Liang is just looking for trouble.”

”Hey, do you think Mr. Liang is upset about this and called everyone up here to raise prices?”

”Huh? Really? What’s that got to do with us? We don’t even know Zheng Guoqiang.”

”Exactly. This has nothing to do with us. If Mr. Liang raises prices because of this, it wouldn’t be fair.”

”Remember last time with Liu Changfa? It wasn’t our problem, but the prices were raised.”

”So... are we just innocent victims again?”

”Yeah, this isn’t right. How can this be allowed?”

Many people started murmuring, with many suspecting that Liang Yuan intended to raise prices again.

The last time with Liu Changfa, Liang Yuan had used the opportunity to raise prices.

Now with this incident involving Zheng Guoqiang, everyone couldn’t help but connect the dots again.

After waiting for a while, Liang Yuan soon came up with Old Ma, Cai Zhi, Ding Yan, Zhao Kai, and others.

Alongside him were members of various patrol teams.

This group consisted of more than a dozen people, many of whom were also mutant ability users.

The previously indignant residents immediately fell silent.

Everyone looked towards Liang Yuan and his group.

Liang Yuan, confident in demeanor, didn’t feel uneasy under everyone’s gaze.

With his enhanced attributes, especially his significant increase in the spirit attribute, his aura had long surpassed that of ordinary people.

At this moment, his presence was the strongest among them all.

Liang Yuan stood still as the others lined up below, maintaining order.

He scanned the crowd and slowly began, ”Everyone, the reason I called you here today is to inform you of an important matter.”

”It’s been raining for half a year now. The water level of the flood is rising day by day. I remember half a month ago, the water level was only at the eleventh floor. Now it has risen to the fourteenth floor.”
