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

Chapter 1287 - 621: Mengya Company

There was a long list of goods and equipment on the tablet.

Among them, there was a striking item.

”Genetic Detector!”

And it was the usage description under this Genetic Detector that truly made Zang Haiyang’s face change.

”May I ask, is this Genetic Detector really capable of detecting genes according to the description here? Is it suitable for gene recombination?”

With these words, Zang Haiyang instantly drew the attention of Ma Gaoxuan, Shen Yan, and Mei Jingxuan.

Gene recombination?

That is the biggest cultivation obstacle they currently face.

Even someone as daring as Ma Gaoxuan, who repeatedly risked everything, suffered greatly.

Until now, he has barely pushed the gene recombination progress to 4%!

As for Zang Haiyang, he has been stuck at 100 points, unable even to start recombining genes!

It must be noted that during the competition at Dark Abyss Mouth, Ma Gaoxuan’s main attribute was already close to 90 points.

Yet, after all this time, his strength has only improved to a gene recombination level of 4%, which indicates the difficulty.

It’s not that Zang Haiyang doesn’t want to undergo gene recombination; the risks are simply too high, the difficulty too great. He has tried dozens of times, yet cannot find the correct gene fragments for recombination.

And this Genetic Detector mentioned on the tablet claims it can detect genes and identify whether they match!

What does this mean?

It means if one owns this Genetic Detector, those looking to undergo gene recombination and map their genetic map can save a significant amount of time selecting genes.

Faced with such an instrument, not only Zang Haiyang but also Ma Gaoxuan’s eyes lit up.

”Let me see.”

Ma Gaoxuan immediately said.

Zang Haiyang quickly handed him the tablet.

Ma Gaoxuan glanced at it, indeed spotting the Genetic Detector.

The introduction was clear.

Genetic Detector

Function Introduction: Utilizing DNA polymerase fixed to the ZMW hole, this device uses the principle of real-time fluorescent nucleotide incorporation (single-molecule real-time sequencing) and can effectively target similar gene markers.

Detection Range: Exome

Accuracy: 90%

”This...”

Ma Gaoxuan looked at the function introduction and felt somewhat overwhelmed.

Though he recognized the Chinese characters involved, stringing them together made no sense to him; he was merely struck by its formidable aura.

However, the 90% accuracy noted on the side made him realize this tool might be very capable.

Ma Gaoxuan immediately raised his head to look at Hu Peigang.

”Captain Hu, is this Genetic Detector really that powerful?”

Hu Peigang glanced at them, instantly understanding: at least one among them had surely reached the gene recombination stage.

Otherwise, they wouldn’t care so intensely about the Genetic Detector.

Hu Peigang’s attitude promptly became more serious.

Anyone capable of gene recombination, mapping genetic maps, and transforming into genetic organisms is remarkable.

Even in Mengya, such individuals are mid-to-high-level figures.

He nodded and said, ”The Genetic Detector is a significant invention of our Mengya Company and can indeed detect specific genes.”

”But unfortunately, our armored convoy does not have a Genetic Detector.”

”Genetic Detectors are not portable small devices, but rather take up an entire laboratory.”

Ma Gaoxuan and the others immediately looked disappointed.

Zang Haiyang couldn’t help but complain, ”Then why include it in these supplies?”

Hu Peigang smiled slightly, ”Please hold on, you may have missed the content afterward.”

”The list notes indicate usage times for the Genetic Detector.”

”In other words, you can exchange supplies for using the Genetic Detector.”

Ma Gaoxuan was stunned, ”Usage times? Didn’t you say your Genetic Detector isn’t here?”

”It’s not here; we can issue usage coupons, and you can go to our Mengya Company headquarters to use the Genetic Detector.”

”However, let me remind you all: the Genetic Detector involves master-level genetic mapping, so exchanging for usage is quite expensive. You really should examine the conditions first.”

Upon hearing this, Ma Gaoxuan and the others immediately looked at the tablet.

There, they saw a pricing table.

Each use of the Genetic Detector requires spending 10,000 Mengya Points Coupons.

”Mengya Points Coupon? What is that?”

Ma Gaoxuan couldn’t help but ask.

Hu Peigang chuckled, ”It’s a coupon introduced by our Mengya Company, usable within our company’s sphere of influence.”

Suddenly realizing he hadn’t asked about their background yet, Ma Gaoxuan inquired, ”Forgive my ignorance, Captain Hu, what exactly is the nature of your Mengya Company’s power? Is it official? Where specifically?”

Hu Peigang laughed upon hearing this, ”Now, where is anything official? The earth was flooded, superpower factors filled the world, many modern communication means are unusable.”

”Officials no longer exist; everyone is self-reliant now.”

”As for Mengya, before the great flood, we indeed had official backing.”

”You may not recognize Mengya, but our predecessor had a name: Green Leaf Biotechnology Group, which you might have heard of.”

Ma Gaoxuan paused for a moment; he honestly hadn’t heard of it.

Before the great flood, Ma Gaoxuan was just a sports teacher, specializing in track and field events.

He didn’t know much about various domestic enterprises.

However, Mei Jingxuan beside him suddenly spoke up, ”Is it that subsidiary with a state-owned enterprise background, Green Leaf Biotechnology?”

”Have you heard of it, sir?”

”Yes, I bought your company’s stock and lost an apartment worth.” Mei Jingxuan remarked in a deep voice.

Hu Peigang immediately chuckled and shook his head, saying, ”You can’t blame us for that. Green Leaf is Green Leaf, and Mengya is Mengya.”

”Currently, our Mengya Company’s headquarters is located in Yu Province, Jiangbei, adjacent to Jiangnan Province.”

”Where in Yu Province?” Zang Haiyang immediately inquired.

Yu Province is vast, and Jiangnan and Jiangbei refer to the former Yu River.

But after the great flood, the Yu River vanished without a trace.

Today, although Yu Province is north of the Yu River, its total area is still significant.

The northernmost part is already close to the Huangsha River.

Hu Peigang laughed, ”Not as far as you might think, just by the Yu River on Chi Mountain.”

Everyone realized it immediately upon hearing this.

Chi Mountain is right by the Yu River, and Linjiang is actually a branch of the Yu River.

That being said, it’s indeed not far.

However, the terrain of Chi Mountain is high; in fact, north of the Yu River, the terrain gradually rises.

Moreover, there are plenty of mountain ranges north of the Yu River.

Chi Mountain is one of the significant mountain ranges in the Central Plains.

The Mengya Company is established on Chi Mountain, so even if the great flood continues to this day, it’s unlikely to submerge Chi Mountain.

Although it’s said to be not far, the straight-line distance on the map is estimated to be nearly five hundred kilometers.

Five hundred kilometers, even by car, would take most of the day.

No one knows how long these people, relying on their armored convoy, would take to get here.

Of course, now that everyone has awakened superpowers and the water surface has frozen, covering that distance at full speed of 500 kilometers is not considered too far.

Superpower users nowadays can run as fast as cars at full speed.

However, the energy within superpower users is limited, so they can’t sprint incessantly without breaks.

Even so, it would probably take only two to three days to reach it.

Of course, that’s under the condition of not getting lost.

After the flood inundated the land, the biggest issue was actually the problem of distinguishing directions.

Because the water stretches as far as the eye can see, there are no markers at all.

In such circumstances, superpower users can easily get lost too.

After a bit of exchange, Ma Gaoxuan and others gradually gained some understanding of this Mengya Company.

The predecessor of Mengya Company was the Green Leaf Biotechnology Group, with a state fund background, strong and powerful, and had its own tech building.

After the great flood outbreak, powerful superpower users immediately thought of relocating the company to higher ground.

So, the Mengya Company came to be on Chi Mountain.

Of course, today’s Mengya Company is no longer under the leadership of the former Green Leaf Biotechnology Group.

And the naming of Mengya Company is meaningful. According to Hu Peigang’s account, Mengya signifies hope.

With the arrival of the great flood, Mengya did not see the despair of human extinction, but rather the hope of human resurgence.

Because with the emergence of superpowers, humans were about to break through genetic limits and tread a stronger path.

They didn’t see this as an apocalypse, but rather as the hope for humans to surpass themselves.

Thus, the company was named Mengya.

From the depths of despair, the sprout of hope was born.

Ma Gaoxuan quite agreed with this notion, as he was the best example himself.

Initially, he was just an ordinary sports teacher, a teacher at a private school.

He didn’t have a permanent position, his salary wasn’t high, and he needed to do part-time work to repay loans.

After the great flood, he awakened his superpower and gradually grew to become the leader of Furong Valley.

Though the profession of a sports teacher was decent, without a government position status, it didn’t really score points when searching for a partner.

Therefore, his matchmaking prospects didn’t yield relations, probably still considering him.

After the great flood, having become a superpower user, what kinds of women were there not for him?

For him, after the great flood, he did not feel despair but instead felt hope.

Especially after breaking through gene recombination, his life level made a leap.

The feeling of breaking through genetic shackles is what truly gave him hope in life.

He had a premonition that unraveling the mystery of genes and recombining the genetic map, he could one day achieve immortality and transcend beyond this planet!

Thus, he was quite in agreement with Mengya Organization’s ideology.

Having this agreement, he developed some affection for the other party.

”Captain Hu, may I ask what your purpose is in this southward journey?”

”It’s like this, if it’s a small amount of supplies, we can spare some, but if the destination you are heading to is too far, we might not be able to provide more resources here.”

Hu Peigang smiled slightly and said, ”We don’t need much; we’re almost at our destination.”

”Oh? May I ask where you are heading?”

”Yangshan.”

Hu Peigang chuckled lightly and did not hide it.
