Reborn: I Stock Up and Bully the Trash to Dominate the Apocalypse

Zhipeng was so perceptive that he immediately noticed the omission in the words: "The fleet we encountered... was it a friendly group?"

Qi Mingyu shook his head calmly: "There was a fleet that wanted to rob us. We didn't bother them and just walked away."

"Humph, those who can survive the apocalypse are all ruthless!" Xue Dong sneered and asked hurriedly, "Did you fight? Are you injured?"

"There was a battle, but we have torpedoes on the cruise ship, so how can they defeat us?" Mu Mu continued, "My dad was only hit by a bullet, but it's okay, he just needs to recover slowly."

"Uncle, are you okay? Are there any sequelae?" Xue Tao hurriedly looked at Zhou Jianghai.

Zhou Jianghai smiled and waved his hands: "It's okay, it's okay. The bullet grazed my shoulder. With doctors Wanwan and Mumu here, I'll be fully recovered."

Everyone couldn't help laughing again.

The atmosphere in the room gradually became cheerful again.

Zhong Tiyun changed the subject again: "Let's not talk about these depressing things. How have you been on the mothership for the past six months? Did you get hurt when the salt fog came?"

Mentioning salt fog, Zhipeng's face grew serious: "In fact, when the salt fog suddenly broke out this time, we all had lessons learned from the past. The mother ship also treated it as a major enemy and forced everyone to stay in the cabin and not open the windows.

All the cracks in the doors and windows were covered tightly with plastic sheets and rags. However, the salt mist was so dense that it slowly seeped in through the cracks in the doors and windows, and anyone who accidentally got it would immediately develop redness, swelling, and ulcers...

It was only then that we realized the harmfulness of salt spray!"

Xue Tao took over and said, "Later, we discovered that salt spray is very corrosive to the metal on the ship, and the atmosphere on board suddenly became tense. The fact that we are still alive today is thanks to the mothership! If the machinery and metal on the mothership are corroded by the salt spray, we will be in danger. So, after several salt spray attacks, the two captains began to discuss leaving..."

Xue Tao smiled bitterly as he spoke: "We have no way to deal with the salt mist, so we can only flee..."

Zhou Shuwan's heart suddenly tightened.

Captain Shang, just as he was about to leave, was unfortunately hit by salt spray and developed a severe lung infection, which is why...

"Captain Shang went out that day." Xue Tao's voice was choked with sobs: "At that time, many people, including Captain Chen, kept trying to persuade him not to go, saying that sending a small team would be enough, but he insisted on going alone.

When he came back, his body and face were covered with red pimples, and he was coughing so hard that he couldn't even stand up straight..."

The room was so quiet that you could hear the sound of the waves outside the window.

"Then, on the day the ashes were scattered," Zhipeng said softly, "everyone on the ship stood on the deck, no one spoke. When the boat was leaving, the wind suddenly picked up on the sea, and everyone said it was Captain Shang saying goodbye to us."

"Captain Chen seemed to have aged ten years overnight," Xue Dong said. "During that period, everyone was in a very low mood. There were even several suicide attempts. Only later did things slowly recover."

The Zhou family was a little surprised.

Zhong Tiyun hurriedly said, "It's better to live than to die. We are so lucky to be alive today. Zhipeng, Yuxuan, you guys are not allowed to do anything stupid."

"Don't worry, aunt, we are not that stupid!" Zhipeng and the others laughed.

Zhou Shuwan's heart skipped a beat and he glanced at Mu Mu imperceptibly.

Mu Mu was looking out the window, with an indescribable emotion in his eyes.

She was worried about being discovered, so she quickly looked away.

She looked at Zhipeng: "Let's not talk about that anymore. Let's talk about you. How have you been doing in the past six months? Are your supplies still sufficient?"

"Enough! We all have jobs, and if we do our work honestly every month, we will get a salary. This salary is enough for two people to eat and drink, and we can save it slowly. Yuxuan also has a subsidy, so we have no shortage of food and drink." Zhipeng said in an orderly manner.

Zhou Shuwan nodded: "That's good."

Zhipeng hesitated for a moment, then asked again, "Wanwan, when you returned from Captain Chen, did he mention anything about building a mid-air fortress?"

Everyone's expectant eyes were on Zhou Shuwan.

Zhou Shuwan knew that they, like himself, were also very concerned about matters concerning their own mid-air fortress.

She shook her head and said, "We just talked to Captain Chen. I'm afraid Island 2 won't work. The foundation is too loose to build a fort."

Zhipeng and the others looked like they had expected this.

"I saw divers going to Island 2 at that time, and I guessed that they were going to test the foundation of Island 2!"

Because of the rising global sea level, even if they came to Hope Island No. 2, they could not see the island. The island that had become a ruin was completely submerged by the sea.

At this time, it was less than a few hundred meters away from the mother ship.

After exploration, they finally chose to anchor here.

"What should we do?" Xue Tao sighed. "We can't just drift on the sea forever, right? The sea temperature is getting higher and higher. Who knows, one day the bottom of the boat might not be able to withstand the heat."

Qi Mingyu said solemnly, "Captain Chen said he would continue to send people to explore the nearby waters. We'll eventually find a suitable location. The most urgent task is to process the minerals and volcanic soil and refine the boiling point alloy first. Only then can we discuss the next step."

"That's all we can do." Zhipeng brought in several large bags from outside the dormitory: "Aunt, Uncle, these are the food I brought for you.

This is smoked fish, kelp, seaweed, and the like. These are the things we have the most in stock. We gathered them together, so you can make do with what you have for now."

Zhong Tiyun hurriedly stood up and stopped them: "Keep it for yourselves, we still have..."

"Auntie, please don't be so polite." Xue Tao put the things on the table. "You must have consumed a lot on this journey. We don't have to run around on the mothership, and the supplies are enough. Besides, these are just our little gifts. You can't let us take them back, right?"

Yuxuan also smiled and nodded. "Auntie, please accept it. I also pickled some kelp shreds with vinegar and soy sauce. The taste is very different. I was in a hurry today. I'll send you a jar later."

Zhong Tiyun looked at the things on the table, then looked at the sincere faces of the young people, and her heart felt warm and sad.

Things and money are very expensive in the end times. They are able to take these out, which means they really treat them as their own family.

Zhou Shuwan came over and said, "Mom, since this is a gift from Zhipeng and the others, let's accept it. We'll return the gift later."

Zhong Tiyun smiled and said, "Okay, then we'll accept it."

"Wanwan, you have made great contributions this time. There must be a lot of rewards from above. If there are any rare materials, I would be very interested." Zhipeng joked.

The serious atmosphere in the room gradually dissipated.

"That's a must. Just wait." Zhou Shuwan smiled heartily.

Zhong Tiyun also smiled and said, "After we pack our luggage, we'll invite you guys to come for the reunion dinner. Don't refuse!"

"Okay! I'll definitely come!"
