Weird Apocalypse: Rebirth Starts with Trillions of Ghost Money

Before heading to the luxurious resort, Chen Mu gave Cha Cha some instructions.

If Zhao Xingyu comes looking for him, he should tell him to go to the luxurious resort.

Since the other party is asking me for a favor, I don't need to spend a whole day waiting for Zhao Xingyu to visit.

After giving the instructions, Chen Mu called the driver and headed to the luxurious resort.

There, the entire top floor was a leisure area prepared for Chen Mu.

After arriving at the top floor, Chen Mu first went to the restaurant to have brunch.

The restaurant's head chef was transferred from the Midnight Hotel; he is an executive chef specializing in teppanyaki.

Chen Mu sat at the counter, eating as the chef prepared the food.

Chen Mu could clearly taste that the texture of the ingredients had improved significantly compared to before.

In particular, the menu has added new ingredients such as beef tongue, snowflake beef, abalone, and foie gras.

These ingredients wouldn't actually be considered rare in the pre-apocalyptic world.

Whether it's a teppanyaki restaurant priced around 200 or an all-you-can-eat buffet for around 100, regardless of the quality, at least you can get something to eat.

In the bizarre post-apocalyptic world, production was severely damaged due to the disruption of order.

Even if these ingredients are of very poor quality, they are almost impossible to find; very few can be found frozen.

Chen Mu had also eaten frozen food about six months ago.

The only difference is that what we're eating now is fresh, as Chen Mu can grow it!

This means that the livestock, aquaculture, and deep-sea fishing industries in Wangjiang are beginning to recover rapidly.

With the help of refined and mysterious energy, the breeding speed should also be greatly improved.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to produce fresh beef in such a short time.

The texture of the beef is also greatly enhanced by the pure, mysterious energy.

See the big picture in the small details!

After the meal, Chen Mu had a good understanding of the industries related to Wangjiang Watch.

After lunch, he went to the outdoor poolside, lay on a deck chair, and sipped coconut water while sunbathing.

For Chen Mu, this was what a vacation and relaxation should be like.

He doesn't like going to tourist attractions; instead, he prefers to find a quiet environment where he can lie down and rest.

Sometimes, eating and drinking, and then lying down for a few days, can restore your energy.

In the afternoon, just as Chen Mu was about to have afternoon tea, the butler came up to him and said that a man named Zhao Xingyu wanted to see him.

"He's finally here."

Chen Mu got up, straightened his clothes, and asked the butler to invite Zhao Xingyu in.

Chen Mu's choice to meet at the luxurious resort was not only intended to provide a place for rest, but also to put pressure on Zhao Xingyu.

Back then, before an irrigation session, Chen Mu used a little trick, also in this luxurious resort, to successfully mislead Zhao Xingyu.

It was on that occasion that Zhao Xingyu, realizing he was in the wrong, made concessions to Chen Mu.

Now that they meet again, choosing this place will instinctively remind Zhao Xingyu of the past, making him feel unconvinced and lacking in confidence.

Using such subtle means, they dominated the status and aura of both parties.

This is something Chen Mu learned gradually after experiencing many things.

A few minutes later, the butler brought Zhao Xingyu in.

Zhao Xingyu's other subordinates were accommodated in private rooms downstairs, where they were treated to good food and drinks.

Upon seeing Zhao Xingyu arrive, Chen Mu immediately put on a smile.

"Chief Zhao, it's been a long time. Please have a seat and come have some afternoon tea with me."

Zhao Xingyu readily accepted Chen Mu's invitation.

The two sat down facing each other, drinking beverages and eating snacks while chatting about the past.

After chatting for a while, Chen Mu inadvertently revealed the matter of rotating black holes.

He wanted to test Zhao Xingyu's reaction to this.

However, Zhao Xingyu did not follow up on the conversation or mention Chief Xing. Instead, he changed the subject and brought up the irrigation issue.

"Mr. Chen, it's been a while since the last irrigation. When would be a good time for you to... irrigate it again?"

Chen Mu immediately showed a surprised expression, "What? We need to irrigate again? That's too fast."

I remember it's only been about a month since the last irrigation. And after the last irrigation, didn't your Lake of Fallen Gods recover quite well?

I noticed that after the last irrigation, the Lake of Fallen Gods began to fill with water.

Faced with Chen Mu's series of questions, Zhao Xingyu felt a little embarrassed.

He took a sip of tea and said, "Mr. Chen, this situation is a bit special. The Lake of Fallen Gods does indeed need another irrigation."

Rest assured, this is the last irrigation. After this, you won't need to provide any more pure, strange energy.

We will reward you handsomely for this irrigation, even more so than the last time.

"When are you available?"

Listening to Zhao Xingyu's words, Chen Mu remained outwardly calm, but his mind was actually racing.

According to Chen Mu's understanding, each irrigation helps the Lake of Fallen Gods to revive.

What does Zhao Xingyu mean when he says, "This situation is somewhat special"?

Does "special circumstances" refer to some kind of massive flood?

The rapidly changing situation before them, have they also noticed it at the Lake of Fallen Gods? That's why they're so eager to find someone to irrigate it.

Judging from Zhao Xingyu's words, this was the last time he would irrigate the area.

Will the Lake of Fallen Gods be fully restored after this irrigation?

Even if Chen Mu didn't want to think about it too much, he couldn't help but connect it to the current situation.

The great flood is very likely to recur, and all parties are stirring up trouble, making various plans for this catastrophe.

Even the Lake of Fallen Gods, which had been dormant for thousands of years, couldn't hold back any longer and wanted to make a move in this catastrophe.

Interesting... Things are starting to get interesting...

All factions will make their appearance.

Chen Mu wasn't particularly interested in the "reward" Zhao Xingyu mentioned.

To be honest, when it's a major catastrophe, when you're going all in, who cares about small returns?

What Chen Mu was most concerned about was the division between friend and foe in the Lake of Fallen Gods.

Friend or foe?

If the Lake of Fallen Gods is a friend, then everything is fine.

If it turns out to be an enemy, allowing the enemy to revive at this time would be a huge problem for me.

If they threaten you then, what's the point of talking about giving back?

Chen Mu pondered for a moment and then said, "I wonder what exactly Chief Zhao meant by 'reward'?"

Chen Mu wasn't really concerned about the reward; he just wanted to try to determine the allegiance of the Lake of Fallen Gods through indirect inquiries.

Zhao Xingyu didn't think much of it and cupped his hands in greeting, saying:

"I regret that I cannot guarantee you the specific details of the returns at this time."

What the Lake of Fallen Gods can produce actually depends on the effectiveness of this irrigation.

The specifics will depend on the results after irrigation.

Chen Mu laughed, "Are you planning to get something for nothing? Or are you threatening me indirectly?"
