Doomsday: Humanity shrinks 100 times

Chapter 122 Glimmer
As the number of people suddenly increased to nine, the accommodation in the shelter was obviously not enough.

Lu Yuning wanted to take this opportunity to expand the shelter and build some of the previous facilities.

But before that, he planned to improve the shelter's protective capabilities.

That guy with the triangular eyes always made him feel uneasy.

Even though he was anxious, it was already dark when he returned from a day of running around, so Lu Yuning had to put the construction work aside for the time being.

Han Yingying and the other two walked around the shelter for a few rounds, and were curious about everything they saw.

The three of them stopped in front of the huge steam pump, pointing and talking from time to time.

The water pipes from the steam pumps had been removed, so they had not yet discovered the buildings above their heads.

This shows that the aerial platform has good concealment.

"How is it? Not bad, right? If you need anything in the future, feel free to tell Yuning." As a guide in the shelter, Zou Yunxin took on the job of a contractor and was also preparing to help Lu Yuning get some engineering projects.

"I want to ask"

"Hmm? What's the problem, Sister Yingying?" Zou Yunxin asked.

"Can we build a bathroom? I heard from Yu Ning that your entire shelter is connected to the water system, so..."

“Oh, we already have this.”

"Really?" Han Yingying's eyes lit up.

It seems that most girls are more fond of cleanliness. Like Zhang Xinyue, the first thing they think of is hygiene.

"Of course, and we also have hot water," Zou Yunxin showed off proudly.

Han Yingying's eyes were already starting to see stars.

“You can experience it after dinner.”

Han Yingying nodded frequently.

Liu Rui and Xia Fei were somewhat uninterested and obviously not that concerned about this matter.

"By the way, how did you kill that nest of spiders before?" Liu Rui asked a more interested question.

Zou Yunxin felt a little more proud, and then told them how to destroy the spider's nest.

The three of them were naturally extremely shocked and looked in the direction of the sniper platform above their heads, although they could not see anything.

Under Zou Yunxin's leadership, the three of them gradually became familiar with some of the facilities in the shelter.

Others are busy.

Zhang Qian started cooking again, and bursts of aroma wafted from under the shelter.

Lu Yuning was not idle either. Since the rescue plan was rather hasty, he just randomly wrapped up the mutant eggs he got from the spider's nest and placed them under the roots of the tree.

Became neighbors with the earthworms I had met before.

Lu Yuning had never had time to deal with the earthworms he had collected before, and recently everyone discovered a few fireflies.

After the end of the world, as humans disappeared, this less common insect began to appear more frequently.

With the spider silk I collected earlier, I might be able to start making an insect trap.

As for the mutant spider, Lu Yuning has not yet figured out how to deal with it. It would be great if it could be tamed.

Although Lu Yuning still has some arachnophobia, he feels a little itchy when he thinks of the terrifying power of the mutated spider and the precious spider silk.

Of course, strong strength naturally means danger, so it must be kept in captivity with care. If that doesn't work, then let Xu Qi come over and see if he can communicate with it.

However, Lu Yuning had no idea how to hatch it, so he could only leave it there and see if it could hatch on its own. It seemed like a breeding area could be dug out under the tree roots to house any creatures that needed to be kept captive.

A livestock area will be planned later.

Later, we can catch some edible insects and raise them, so we will have a stable source of meat.

After Lu Yuning fed the earthworms and put the spider eggs back in place, it was almost time for dinner.

As the number of people in the shelter increased, Lu Yuning temporarily opened a restaurant. At this time, the nine people were eating the new walnut porridge made by Zhang Qian in this restaurant.

Liu Rui and Xia Fei hadn't eaten such delicious food since the end of the world, and they didn't care about their image at all and gobbled it up voraciously.

Although Han Yingying's eyes were also shining, she was still a little reserved as a girl, but she still ate three bowls in the end.

After everyone had eaten, they sat on the stools in the restaurant and started chatting. The shelter suddenly became very lively.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Lu Yuning stood up and clapped his hands for everyone to be quiet.

The restaurant suddenly became quiet, and eight pairs of eyes looked at Lu Yuning.

"Ahem, first of all, let me formally welcome our three new friends," Lu Yuning cleared his throat and said seriously.

Everyone applauded in unison.

"Since the number of people has increased, we will need to expand our shelter. However, considering the threat of Spark, I plan to upgrade the sniper station tomorrow."

As usual, Lu Yuning talked about the next work plan, but unlike the previous situation, with Han Yingying joining, the next construction work would not be done by Lu Yuning alone.

"How do we do it?" someone asked.

"The previous attack surface had a blind spot and the range was a bit short, so I plan to modify the projectile and make it movable, so that it can reach 360 degrees without blind spots."

Everyone nodded in understanding.

"Although we successfully rescued the people this time, I noticed that the Starfire crew were all wearing strange plant-based armor. While it looks thin and light, it can actually block the impact of thermite rounds at close range. Furthermore, it doesn't seem to affect their movements, which effectively weakens our strongest attack by more than half. I have to say that the Starfire crew is much better at individual defense than we are, so we might need to develop some new weapons later."

Lu Yuning told everyone about the next key construction project, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Finally, before dark, Lu Yuning was ready to end the meeting.

"I have an idea," Wu Xiao said.

"What do you think?" Zou Yunxin curled his lips in disdain.

"Don't interrupt, let's get serious."

Lu Yuning paused and looked at Wu Xiao with some curiosity.

"We have a lot of people now, it's time to come up with a team name"

When everyone heard him speak, their eyes lit up immediately. They were obviously very interested in this proposal and soon started to discuss it actively.

"How about calling her Yunxin, like the Yun of Zou Yunxin and the Xin of Zhang Xinyue?"

Everyone was sweating, and Zhang Xinyue pinched Zou Yunxin with a blushing face. In the end, this proposal was naturally ignored by everyone.

"They call it Spark, so let's just call it Fiery Fire," Xia Fei said.

Although this name is better than Spark, it always reminds Lu Yuning of a game before the apocalypse.
In the end, he was the first one to shake his head and reject it.

Lu Yuning also thought hard for a long time, and finally an idea suddenly came to him. He said: "Weiguang, how about it? Although people are small, they can still shine brightly."

This name was something he made up on the spur of the moment when he first met Team Spark. Now that he thinks about it, it has a good meaning.
