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

Chapter 1356 - 689: Resources, Hotpot, and Vajra Leopards

”Mr. Liang, are you trying to obtain the brain core core of this Abyss Island?”

Jiang Ziyin immediately asked excitedly.

Liang Yuan smiled: ”If we can find the brain core core here, it would be ideal. However, I feel it’s unlikely.”

”This Abyss Island has been submerged for so long, with so many mutant beasts entrenched here, including incredibly powerful genetic mutation beasts. The brain core core is either already occupied by other mutant beasts or has vanished along with its former master upon their death.”

In fact, Liang Yuan leaned more towards the second scenario.

Because before becoming an Abyss Island, it was first a Floating Island, and then a drifting island.

Throughout all this time, it’s impossible that no other creatures have consumed the brain core core and refined it.

And as this Abyss Island sank, the master who refined the brain core core would likely abandon this island.

Of course, it’s also possible they couldn’t bear to part with it and went down with it into the water.

That would be similar to the situation with the shadow dragon at the Dark Abyss Mouth.

It had also refined the brain core first, but didn’t get to consume the heart core before Liang Yuan snatched it.

If the Floating Island became an Abyss Island, the island’s master would likely abandon it.

Not to mention whether the island master could survive underwater; even if they could adapt, the underwater mutant beasts are numerous and formidable.

Falling into the water, forming an Abyss Island, the abundant resources here would attract countless underwater mutant beast attacks.

This would also pose a threat to the island’s master.

Liang Yuan estimated that the heart core and brain core of this island should be long gone.

Otherwise, the master of this Abyss Island would have cleaned up the people on Spirit Jade Island and these mutant beasts long ago.

Upon hearing Liang Yuan’s analysis, everyone looked disappointed.

Without a brain core core, they couldn’t become the master of this Abyss Island, and since it was submerged, it’s not suitable as a survival base, greatly reducing its value.

Liang Yuan chuckled: ”Everyone, even without a brain core core, this Abyss Island is still rich in resources. Don’t forget that inside every giant corpse, there are plenty of blood crystals.”

”These blood crystals are crucial materials for condensing genetic species.”

”Even after reaching gene recombination, blood crystals can provide a large amount of energy for cultivation to enhance superpower energy.”

”By the way, have you all figured out what type of island this Abyss Island is?”

Each Floating Island has its own attribute characteristics.

For example, Mirage Snake Space is spatial attribute.

The Dark Abyss Mouth has a dark attribute.

Miyuan Rainforest, water attribute.

For the current Abyss Island, its type remains unknown.

”I know this.” Wang Yu’Er raised her hand immediately and shouted.

Everyone looked at her. Wang Yu’Er was young, appearing innocent, but her capabilities were greatly influential.

She is an Earth Attribute Superpower User, and initially, everyone depended on her Earth Element ability to explore outside.

Just listening to Wang Yu’Er, she said: ”I previously used my Earth Element ability to scope around. There’s a large amount of metal attribute blood crystals immersed in the vein pathways here.”

”I suspect this Abyss Island is likely to be of metal attribute.”

Wang Ling’Er gently nodded, saying: ”Indeed, the vein pathways on this Abyss Island are incredibly solid, with a crisp metallic sound upon impact.”

”It may be due to the longstanding infiltration of metal attribute energy.”

Jiang Ziyin also nodded: ”Certainly, there are many things related to metal attribute here. Unfortunately, none of us are Metal Attribute Superpower Users; otherwise, we’d thrive here.”

Liang Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly upon hearing this.

To think it’s a metal attribute Abyss Island!

Among his Five Elements Genetic Species, only metal and wood attributes haven’t been condensed yet.

The appearance of this Abyss Island stirred something within him.

Could this be a fortunate opportunity?

He was just lacking metal attribute genetic species, and now he’s come to a metal attribute Abyss Island.

”So, what do all of you think of my proposal? If you don’t wish to take risks, you can stay here and wait for a while. I’ll gather some blood crystals and bring everyone along when I leave.”

Liang Yuan immediately asked with a smile.

Wang Ling’Er instantly spoke: ”If we can follow you to mine blood crystals, how can we pass up such a big advantage? Hahaha.”

Jiang Ziyin and the others spontaneously laughed with goodwill.

After a few more exchanges, they all agreed to go mine blood crystals.

But before doing so, Wang Ling’Er’s stomach suddenly grumbled.

Liang Yuan was surprised and looked up at Wang Ling’Er.

Wang Ling’Er’s face turned slightly red, quickly saying: ”Has everyone not eaten yet?”

”Mr. Liang, our supplies were taken away with the giant tortoise. We don’t have much to eat here.”

”If you don’t mind, you can try some of the sashimi we made.”

With that, she pointed to the mutant fish meat hanging in the camp.

Liang Yuan was instantly taken aback and asked, ”Have you all been eating this all this time?”

Wang Ling’Er nodded gently, saying: ”Although resources are ample here, there’s limited edible stuff. Mutant fish and shrimp are abundant, but oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, and carbohydrates are practically non-existent.”

”Moreover, since none of us are Fire Attribute Superpower Users, we can only eat things raw.”

Hearing this, Liang Yuan couldn’t help but smile wryly.

Only then did he realize how much Wang Ling’Er and others have suffered here.

He asked, ”I recall you have space equipment. Didn’t store any food or water in it?”

Wang Ling’Er smiled bitterly: ”Yes, I have space equipment made from the stomach of an Autumn Sky Fish, but I didn’t store much food and fresh water. We exhausted all those resources already.”

”We can only make do with these now.”

Liang Yuan heard this and couldn’t help but shake his head, saying, ”No, eating too much of the mutant beast’s flesh is not good. Their flesh contains a lot of mixed genes, which will contaminate your own genes.”

”Eat what I brought.”

Liang Yuan directly took out various foods and utensils from the system, a stove powered by superpower stones, pots, bowls, pans, vegetables, meat, and even beverages and alcohol.

He laid them out directly, making Wang Ling’Er, Wang Yu’Er, and Jiang Ziyin stare wide-eyed.

Wang Yu’Er gulped involuntarily and exclaimed, ”My god, Mr. Liang, you... you actually have cola?”

”With the flood having passed for so long, how do you still have these pre-flood supplies?”

Seeing these supplies, everyone was stunned.

Liang Yuan smiled and said, ”It’s all stocked up before, you know I’m a Space Ability User.”

”Things in the space don’t spoil or expire, so you can eat with confidence.”

”Let’s keep it simple and just have hot pot, it’s more convenient and quick.” Liang Yuan laughed.

Upon hearing about hot pot, everyone’s mouths watered instantly.

Wang Ling’Er couldn’t help saying, ”You even have hot pot base?”

Liang Yuan laughed, ”I don’t have much else, just a lot of hot pot base.”

”The first place I settled after leaving our neighborhood was Ring City World Trade, where many supplies had already been looted, especially in some restaurants.”

”But in one hot pot restaurant, although the frozen beef and lamb, beef balls, and such were all taken, there was a heap of hot pot base left untouched, and I took it all.”

Saying this, Liang Yuan took out many packs of hot pot base from the Sumeru Space.

There were tomato pots and spicy pots.

Everyone’s eyes lit up with information on their faces.

Wang Yu’Er immediately picked a spicy flavored pack and shouted, ”Yes, yes, you must eat a spicy pot to enjoy it.”

”Sis, let’s eat the spicy pot, all the fish we caught, slice them into sashimi, I want to dip them in the spicy pot, wuwuwu, I miss hot pot so much.”

Wang Yu’Er got excited and even started speaking in her hometown dialect.

The two sisters were not from Linjiang, but had moved from Rongcheng.

Originally, they liked eating spicy food, especially hot pot.

”Okay, today we eat hot pot! After eating, we get to work!”

With Wang Ling’Er’s command, everyone shouted excitedly.

They immediately set up three big pots.

There was a Water Attribute Superpower User who directly condensed water and poured it into the pot.

And Liang Yuan’s stoves were driven by Fire Attribute Superpower Stones, not needing any open flame or fuel.

The fuel was the Fire Attribute Superpower Stone inside the stove.

After adding the hot pot base, water started boiling in the stoves, an aroma of spicy and fresh fragrance spread out, making everyone gulp uncontrollably.

Next to Wang Ling’Er, Wang Yu’Er eagerly added sliced raw fish.

Ling River washed and added the kelp and ferns they found in the corner.

Inside this Abyss Island, only these rare types of plants could survive.

With both meat and vegetables, although there were fewer types, the quantity was large.

Everyone couldn’t wait to start eating, one bite, the spicy and fresh flavor was truly moving to tears.

They couldn’t remember how long it had been since they last had hot pot.

Even in Yangshan, hot pot was quite a luxury.

After all, hot pot base needs beef tallow to refine, Yangshan’s supplies were abundant, even starting to breed Plum Blossom Pigs.

But there was no beef tallow, so these dishes like hot pot, were not available in the complex of Yangshan.

For Wang Ling’Er and others, the last time they had hot pot was before the great flood happened.

Mentioning it was far in the past, how could they not feel nostalgic?

The meal was bustling with excitement.

But while eating, Liang Yuan suddenly sensed something was wrong.

He couldn’t help but turn his head to look at the dark road they came from.

He saw on the artery path they came from, large mutant beasts appeared on the road.

These mutant beasts shimmered with a faint golden aura, each one two to three meters high, four to five meters long.

They looked like jaguars, but without tails, no spots, just streamlined golden muscle blocks.

Fur was slightly short, estimated just a few centimeters long, at first glance, it seemed like it had no hair, just a golden statue.

Its mouth full of sharp teeth, eyes also shone with golden light, at this moment, between intertwining fangs, a lot of mucus flowed out.

The bustling crowd gradually quieted down.

Wang Ling’Er saw these mutant beasts, her expression instantly sank, and said, ”It’s the Golden Jaguar!”

Liang Yuan heard this and looked at Wang Ling’Er, ”Golden Jaguar?”

”Yes, it’s the name we gave it, we don’t know what it was originally called.”

”Since it resembles a leopard and has a metallic sheen, we named it Golden Jaguar.”

Ling River stood up beside and said, ”Mr. Liang, each of these Golden Jaguars has the strength of a Genetic Species or above. We’ve been ambushed by them several times, but rest assured, they can’t threaten us...”

However, just as he said this, his breath suddenly halted, revealing a hint of surprise on his face.

Liang Yuan looked over and saw in the darkness, a larger Golden Jaguar slowly approaching.

The many smaller Golden Jaguars instinctively retreated, cowering on either side of it.

The incoming giant Golden Jaguar was over ten meters tall and more than twenty meters long!

Liang Yuan also squinted slightly, saying, ”Genetic Reorganization Level!”
