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

Chapter 1276 - 610: Prize Pool for Increasing Attribute Points

It’s been about a month since Liang Yuan last exchanged for Genetic Attribute Points.

Currently, Liang Yuan’s Points have once again reached the level of 430,000 points.

To be honest, this rate of point accumulation is somewhat slow.

After all, Liang Yuan’s territory and population have both fully expanded by now.

Logically, the rate of point accumulation should have doubled rapidly.

Previously, he could earn 300,000 points in a month.

Now, even with more territory and population, he only has 430,000 points a month.

Liang Yuan sighed inwardly, but he wasn’t surprised.

”Winter is too troublesome; not only has the heavy snow frozen the floodwaters, but the mutant beasts underwater have all hidden, and even the animals on the mountains have gone into hibernation.”

”The number of mutant creatures I can capture has become so scarce that my point accumulation speed has become this slow.”

He furrowed his brows, unable to imagine if he still only had the Yangshan shelter, whether the monthly points income would even reach 100,000?

”Currently, most of my points come from raising mutant beasts on farms.”

”It seems I need to find new channels to earn Points.”

With a sigh in his heart, the first thing he thought of was the so-called Celestial Abyss passage, uncertain if it really contained many mutant beasts.

If it’s as Zhang Yujiang described, with abundant powerful mutant beasts inside.

Then the points value of each mutant beast would definitely be high, perhaps more worthwhile than hunting mutant fish.

”Ding, detecting your current Points at 400,000, the 400,000 Points prize pool has been activated.”

Looking at the prize pool, Liang Yuan directly skipped over the vast amount of living supplies and focused on superpower-related items.

400,000 in supplies is, frankly, still too little; a single Genetic Species costs a million Points.

Of course, the Genetic Species provided by the system are definitely more perfect than those refined by themselves.

Because the system-provided Genetic Species are said to be 100% pure, without any miscellaneous genes.

The Genetic Species they refined themselves inevitably contained some miscellaneous genes.

Miscellaneous genes relate to the risk level of subsequent gene recombination; of course, the fewer, the better.

Just this point, spending a million Points is extremely worthwhile.

”Search for items related to gene recombination improvement.”

Swish!

As Liang Yuan’s mind stirred slightly, the system prize pool quickly changed!

A series of items rapidly appeared in the prize pool.

”Recombination Fusion Agent (Initial Tier): Increases recombination efficiency by 0.4%, valued at 400,000 Points.”

”Gene Purification Injector (Initial Tier): Increases recombination efficiency by 0.3%, valued at 300,000 Points.”

”Gamma Ray Emitter: Small probability to induce gene recombination fusion, effects unknown, valued at 200,000 Points.”

”Surface Cell Analyzer: Recombines according to genetic analysis provided by the analyzer, improving recombination efficiency by 0.5%, valued at 400,000 Points.”

...

Various gene reagents, mutated fruit, and genetic instruments continuously appeared.

Liang Yuan watched for a while; there weren’t too many things available for his selection, just a dozen or so.

Each one valued at 300,000 to 400,000 Points, made Liang Yuan shake his head.

The enhancement in efficiency is so slow, fractions of a percent, too sluggish.

Spending so many Points to get such an efficiency boost, it’s not faster than his own cultivation.

”Still not enough Points; if I had a million Points, the prize pool would surely have more prizes available.”

Liang Yuan sighed, giving up the idea of exchanging.

It’s now winter, earning Points isn’t easy; better to save them for developing Yangshan.

”Let’s see if there are any prizes related to rapidly increasing Genetic Attributes.”

Liang Yuan felt a slight change in his heart, since there’s no expert to oversee Yangshan, he can only stay passively at Yangshan himself.

So the urgent task is to quickly increase the number of experts in Yangshan.

With this thought, Liang Yuan immediately issued a command to the system.

”System, display prizes that can increase Genetic Attribute Points.”

Swish!

The system interface quickly refreshed.

New prizes rapidly began to appear, with values arranged from high to low.

”Five-Colored Fig: A Five Elements Mutated Fruit, can enhance the main attribute of corresponding elemental life forms, valued at 400,000 Points.”

”Frost Blueberry: An ice-attribute mutated fruit, can enhance the main attribute of ice-attribute elemental life forms, valued at 400,000 Points.”

”Thunder Croaker Egg: Thunder-attribute mutant beast egg, can enhance the main attribute of ice-attribute elemental life forms, valued at 400,000 Points.”

”Spiritual Energy Vortex Rune: Energy-aggregating rune, can improve the intensity of Spiritual Energy richness within a region, valued at 400,000 Points.”

...

Various prizes boosting main attributes appeared in the prize pool.

Among these are mutated fruits that can directly enhance corresponding attributes.

There are also mutated beast meat or beast eggs that enhance the user’s main attribute values through consumption and absorption.

There are even spirit-gathering runes, which improve the intensity of Spiritual Energy within an area, enhancing the absorption efficiency of Spiritual Energy, thereby accelerating the improvement of main attributes.

Liang Yuan looked around; many things made him excited.

If not for the fact that he could directly exchange for Genetic Attribute Points, he would definitely be tempted.

Of course, these things are undoubtedly less worthwhile than exchanging directly for Genetic Attribute Points.

With 400,000 Points, Liang Yuan can exchange for 40 Genetic Attribute Points.

However, these items absolutely cannot achieve such an enhancement effect.

On the other hand, these items have another advantage, which is they can be exchanged and used by others.

Whereas directly exchanging for Genetic Attribute Points can only be used by Liang Yuan himself.

This is the system’s personalized benefit for Liang Yuan.

With just one glance, Liang Yuan decided what items he wanted.

”System, targeted extraction of the Spiritual Energy Vortex Rune.”

”Ding, you don’t have enough Points.”

Liang Yuan was taken aback for a moment, then realized that the Spiritual Energy Vortex Rune was worth 400,000 Points.

Moreover, targeted extraction requires additional Points.

”Let’s wait a few more days.”

Targeted extraction requires only 10,000 Points, which can be gathered in one day.

While pondering, laughter suddenly erupted from outside the door.

Liang Yuan raised his eyebrows and couldn’t help but get up to open the door.

Only to see Song Wen and Dong Yan laughing heartily.

Lin Ya and Yang Mei were also covering their mouths, laughing.

They were talking about something that made them laugh this much.

Liang Yuan was surprised; Lin Ya seemed to have blended in with them without inciting hostility from Song Wen and Dong Yan.

”What are you talking about that’s so happy?”

Liang Yuan came out with a smile and asked.

Yang Mei chuckled, ”Didn’t disturb you, did we?”

Liang Yuan shook his head, picked up a cup and poured himself some water, laughingly saying, ”No, just heard you laughing and came to take a look.”

Song Wen laughed, ”Brother Liang, come and see, is this you?”

Song Wen waved at Liang Yuan with a smartphone in her hand.

Liang Yuan was curious and walked over, seeing that the phone was well kept.

Shown on the phone screen was a photo.

In the photo was a tired-looking young man, slightly overweight, talking to an extravagantly dressed woman.

It seemed like they were arguing. The woman’s back was facing the camera, but her mini-skirt showed her long, white legs.

She seemed to be quite a beauty in terms of figure.

The young man’s face looked haggard, his belly slightly protruding, and his expression was somewhat unpleasant.

This young man looked 70% to 80% similar to Liang Yuan.

Upon seeing the photo, Liang Yuan was momentarily dazed.

His memory involuntarily drifted back to the time before the Great Flood apocalypse.

It was an evening when the sun hadn’t set yet, a day he remembered very clearly. He came home early from work, planning to finish the floor renovation of the house.

Unexpectedly, his girlfriend Yu Xue called, asking him to come downstairs.

As he got downstairs, covered in dust and tired from a day’s work, he saw his girlfriend from university days wearing a jk mini-skirt and white shirt, still a goddess from their student days.

Instantly his fatigue disappeared, he was about to say something.

One sentence from Yu Xue left him stunned.

”Let’s break up, Liang Yuan.”

Liang Yuan still remembered her tone was calm, her expression unperturbed.

It wasn’t out of anger; it was a well-considered statement.

Finding it hard to accept, he asked, ”Why?”

Yu Xue simply shook her head, ”Why? Aren’t there enough problems between us?”

”Your down payment was borrowed, the loan is over 1.2 million, with interest over ten thousand a month, how much is your salary?”

”I... I have provident funds, and the mortgage rates are decreasing now, the state is regulating... If we work together, we can get through this...”

Yu Xue was silent, and after a moment, she spoke, ”How would we manage? My salary is 6,500 a month, yours is 12,000, just the mortgage takes away over ten thousand, how much is left?”

”Are you planning to use my salary to support both of us?”

Liang Yuan patiently explained, ”Xue, listen to me, our company is in a growth period, my boss said that after this project finishes, I will try doing another project as a manager, my pay and benefits will improve.”

Yu Xue interrupted him, ”Even so, what about my betrothal gift? You know the rules in our place, my betrothal gift can’t be less than 300,000.”

Liang Yuan was silent.

Yu Xue bluntly said, ”According to the rules there, I can’t bring the betrothal gift back; it’s for my parents who raised me tirelessly to adulthood. This money is for their retirement.”

”You bought this house, to be paid off over 30 years; I’ll have to live these 30 years looking at this kind of life, Liang Yuan, why don’t you ask me if I’m willing to live this kind of life?”

”During school, I was the class belle, the belle of the faculty, everyone was around me, I can’t bear running around every day for mundane things like mortgage and living expenses.”

”Sorry, I don’t want to deceive you, we might really be unsuitable.”

Liang Yuan’s face turned grim, raising his head to try to keep her, ”Is there really no chance?”

”Han Shaoyu invited me for a meal; he said he could help me find a big boss who can save money in our bank, as part of my achievement; I have to go.”

Yu Xue didn’t answer, turning and leaving directly.

Liang Yuan wanted to go forward to hold her, but his steps halted halfway.

He knew that he might be able to keep her now, but what about the future?

They say college love is pure, without impurities.

But the purer the thing, the easier it is to be polluted.

It took only a few years after entering society for Yu Xue to change.

Of course, not only did she change, but he also changed.

The once spirited self also learned to greet with fake smiles at work, became adept at ingratiating and flattering.

He became the type of person he used to hate the most.

”Brother Liang? Brother Liang?”

Dong Yan’s voice sounded in his ears, bringing Liang Yuan back to his senses.

He moved his gaze away from the photo on the phone’s screen, asking, ”Where did you get this photo?”

Dong Yan immediately excitedly responded, ”From Sister Lin Ya’s phone, haha, is this you?”

Lin Ya quickly stood up and said, ”Sorry, Mr. Liang, I didn’t take this; it’s from our owners’ group.”

”Someone mentioned a couple quarreling downstairs breaking up, and an owner took a photo for the group.”

”I was curious and took a look at the time because the group chat record wasn’t deleted... After the Great Flood, I kept the phone that way...”

Liang Yuan was speechless, unable to imagine that he became a joke in the owners’ group back then.
