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

Chapter 381: Chapter 177 Military News

The stormy winds raged, driving the heavy rain as it howled and danced between the heavens and earth.

Liang Yuan’s gaze fixed on the black dot vanishing into the rain curtain, his expression serious.

He didn’t recklessly rush to chase the other.

With his [Evolution] superpower, he could also evolve bat wings and instantly chase after.

But right now, there were still many things to deal with at the Henglong Building.

Besides, in the several hundred meters of distance, who knew if there were any Octopus Monster-like creatures underwater.

Flying across recklessly posed certain risks.

Another thing, he had no idea what might be in the building opposite. Should it house a Meat Mountain Monster, flying over unprepared would surely spell trouble.

The reason Zhou Ye chose to glide across wasn’t because he was brave, but because he had been driven to a corner.

”From such a height, gliding might not even be able to cover these few hundred meters. Zhou Ye is most likely going to fall into the water.”

”No rush. There are still many survivors in the Henglong Building who know about the radio news. Zhou Ye can’t be the only one aware; maybe we can gather information from others.”

With that thought, Liang Yuan extinguished the idea of pursuit and turned to leave the rooftop.

Before leaving, he took away all the clothes racks, water heaters, and other items on the rooftop.

Since the inventory had plenty of space, he took away all that he could.

He returned to the 26th floor of the building, rejoining the others.

”Brother Liang, how should we handle these people?”

Zhao Kai, having recovered significantly under Song Wen’s treatment, asked while being supported by Liu Feifei.

Liang Yuan said, ”Distribute them among the patrol teams; you manage them for now. Also, find all the girls Wang Weidong was occupying; I have questions for them.”

”Alright. By the way, Brother Liang, Brother Cai and Old Ma went to look for the raft; it seems the raft is missing.”

Zhao Kai looked troubled as he mentioned it.

That raft was hard-won, crucial for their journey to Yangshan.

With the raft gone, were they now trapped in this wretched place?

Liang Yuan chuckled, ”The raft is with me. Don’t worry; let everyone rest and recover. Once the toxins are mostly purged, we’ll set out. During this period, rest up. Sister Mei will handle food and water distribution.”

Zhao Kai’s face lit up with surprise, ”It wasn’t lost? Great! I’ll go tell Old Ma and Brother Cai.”

Liang Yuan reminded him, ”Remember to find those people I need to talk to. It’s important.”

”Got it.”

Zhao Kai hurried off, while Liang Yuan sought out Song Wen.

Song Wen, having recovered, was busy treating others.

Seeing Liang Yuan, she wiped sweat from her forehead and said, ”Brother Liang, you’re back?”

Liang Yuan nodded, offering her a towel, ”Why not rest a bit longer? How’s your health?”

Warmed by the concern, Song Wen smiled beautifully, ”I’m fine. My superpower not only controls plants but also has healing abilities. While my healing on others is mild, it works great on myself.”

Liang Yuan grinned, ”Still, don’t overwork yourself. These toxins aren’t lethal. Given time, the body can break them down naturally. No need to push yourself so hard.”

Song Wen nodded, ”I know. I just help out when there’s nothing else to do. I found using my powers regularly actually makes them grow.”

”After this battle, I feel my superpowers have increased a lot. They are much easier to control now.”

Liang Yuan laughed, ”Exactly like running. At first, you get winded, but with practice, you get stronger.”

Song Wen nodded happily, ”For the first time, I feel I’m truly powerful, not relying on my looks to keep people entertained.”

She had been an online beauty streamer, relying on her looks for tips.

Now, she depended on her own strength.

She loved this version of herself; self-reliant and resilient.

Just as Liang Yuan had taught her, she’s adapted to this apocalyptic world, becoming self-reliant, able to fight and lead teams against formidable foes.

Liang Yuan smiled, eyes full of appreciation.

He had watched her transform from a delicate streamer begging for food into her current self, strong and independent.

”Yet, I find your beauty more potent now?”

Song Wen was stunned, looking at him in shock, ”Huh?”

Soon, she realized Liang Yuan was complimenting her.

Her fair face flushed red.

”No way. If I were really that beautiful, why didn’t you lend me food back then?”

Liang Yuan smiled, ”Aren’t you more beautiful now?”

Song Wen, pondering the deeper meaning, gradually nodded, ”Yes, I think I’m better than ever now.”

Liang Yuan chuckled, ”You’ll only get better in the future.”

”I just hope to always be with you... and everyone,”

Her face flushed, pausing noticeably at ”you.”

This was perhaps her most forthright confession.

Liang Yuan, understanding her, looked around. Seeing no one, he stepped forward and whispered in her ear, ”When we reach Yangshan, we’ll have a new home.”
