Apocalypse: I rescued the big boss with millions of supplies

Chapter Thirty-One: Torrential Rain

"Boom boom boom——"

Long Yangyang had just taken out dinner when there was a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Long Yangyang looked up in confusion.

"I'll go open the door." After setting out the bowls and chopsticks, Qiu Ling jumped off the chair and ran to open the door.

"It's you?" Qiu Ling's face twisted in displeasure as she saw the people standing outside the door, clearly indicating that she didn't have a good impression of them.

"Yes, is Miss Long here?" Liu Fang asked.

Qiu Ling nodded. One shouldn't hit a smiling face. Despite still having no good feelings towards these people who had tried to rob them before, Qiu Ling silently opened the door in the face of Liu Fang's gentle attitude.

After all, they were looking for Long Yangyang, and Qiu Ling still remembered that they owed Sister Long a lot of crystal cores.

Long Yangyang was clearly taken aback by the large crowd that had suddenly appeared.

"Oh dear, Miss Long, you're eating?" Liu Fang was probably not expecting this and was a little embarrassed. Seeing the sumptuous four dishes and one soup on the table, she subconsciously swallowed.

"Excuse me," Liu Fang scratched her hair and explained her purpose, "We're here to return the crystal core to Miss Long."

After Liu Fang finished speaking, she took out five primary crystal cores and placed them on the dining table.

As Liu Fang lowered her hand, the others followed suit, placing their own crystal cores on the table.

Looking at the food on the table, Liu Fang rubbed her hands together and smiled awkwardly. "Miss Long, um, we saw Wang Kun and the others exchange crystal cores with you for vegetables, so, could we also exchange some vegetables with you?"

Liu Fang pursed her dry lips and asked.

In the sweltering heat, ordinary vegetables would have long since rotted, and the obviously mutated fruits and vegetables seen on the road would be something that ordinary people would never dare to eat.

If you want to eat vegetables and fruits, apart from those put into the space by the space ability users at the beginning of the apocalypse, you can only exchange them with the wood-type ability users, who use seeds to accelerate growth.

However, in such hot weather, many seeds have rotted, making fresh fruits and vegetables even more precious.

"How many crystal cores do you have left?" Long Yangyang asked.

"There are still a dozen or so left." Liu Fang quickly took out the crystal cores from her tattered pocket. "Take a look, what kind of vegetables can I exchange them for?"

"Potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, cucumbers, what do you want?"

When Long Yangyang saw these people again, she found that they had changed. Their originally cloudy eyes had become more resilient, their resentful and bitter attitude had disappeared, and they were much more confident.

Since that's the case, Long Yangyang doesn't mind helping them out.

"Tomatoes, is that okay?" Long Yangyang took out twenty fist-sized tomatoes and placed them on the table.

"Thank you, Miss Long, thank you." Liu Fang took out a black plastic bag from her pocket and carefully put the tomatoes inside.

These tomatoes were enough for over fifty people, so each person could get about half a tomato.

They haven't been taking vitamin supplements, and lately they've been suffering from severe internal heat, with blisters on their lips and mouth ulcers. But with the world in such chaos, they dare not leave the team to find medicine.

Following the army at least ensures your survival, which is good enough.

As she was leaving, Liu Fang turned around and asked softly, "Miss Long, can we still exchange crystal cores for food from you in the future?"

Long Yangyang nodded. "Okay."

If crystal cores are offered to you on a silver platter, you might as well take them.

Long Yangyang's words stirred something within Liu Fang. "Miss Long, thank you."

The moment the door closed, Liu Fang turned her head, her face covered in grime, and glanced back at Long Yangyang. "Miss Long, we owe you an apology."

Also, I want to thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have known I could kill zombies on my own.

Watching Liu Fang and her group leave, Long Yangyang looked down at the pile of zombie crystals on the table. "It seems there are quite a few zombies this time."

Qiu Ling nodded. "Yes, the leader is a psychic zombie. He probably brought all the zombies from the vicinity with him, but most of them are low-level zombies."

"I see," Long Yangyang said knowingly. After putting the zombie crystal core into her spatial storage, she noticed that Qiu Ling hadn't touched her chopsticks yet and asked curiously, "What are you thinking about? Aren't you going to eat?"

Aren't you usually most enthusiastic about eating?

"I just feel that aunt has changed a lot; she used to be so mean," Qiu Ling replied.

Long Yangyang didn't care about this at all. Apart from the people she cared about, she didn't care about anyone else.

"People change, and they're strangers anyway, why bother caring so much?"

"Then Sister Long, why did you still give food to that aunt who treated us like that?" Qiu Ling asked, puzzled.

"Why? It's just an exchange of equal value. They give me crystal cores, and I give them food. We all need crystal cores anyway, so what difference does it make who we give them to?" Long Yangyang replied.

"Do people really change?" Qiu Ling tilted her head, clearly not understanding the question.

"Whether it changes or remains the same, it's all just about surviving," Long Yangyang replied calmly, stirring the seaweed and egg drop soup in her bowl.

Qiu Ling nodded as if he understood, then lowered his head to eat. This question was too complicated; he should just focus on eating.

"Crackling——"

"It's raining!" The sound of raindrops hitting the window quickly attracted the child's attention.

Hearing the sound of rain, a hint of seriousness flashed in Long Yangyang's eyes, but it quickly disappeared; what was meant to happen would happen.

The first rain after the apocalypse has begun, and soon the first evolution of zombies will arrive, with a large number of super-powered zombies appearing.

Ordinary people who do not become superpowered will turn into zombies if they are exposed to rain for a long time. Only a very small number of them will benefit from this misfortune and become superpowered.

After the heavy rain, zombie plants, zombie animals, and mutant animals and plants will appear in large numbers, making human survival even more difficult.

Long Yangyang felt the mutated rose seedling on her wrist stirring, so she stopped restraining it, walked to the window and opened it: "Go."

In an instant, a vast expanse of fiery red roses appeared outside the window, resembling a crimson carpet when viewed from a distance.

The bright red color was exquisite and the roses were in full bloom. Washed by the rain, they exuded vitality. The roses, which were originally as tall as an adult, sprang up from the ground and grew taller and taller like bamboo shoots after the rain, until they reached the height of a two-story building.

"The seedlings have grown so big." Qiu Ling looked at the suddenly grown mutated rose in disbelief and rubbed her eyes incredulously.

"This rain is not simple." Fu Muyu frowned as he sensed the increasingly active energy in the air.

I wonder what changes the world will undergo after the heavy rain.

“My superpower shows signs of a breakthrough, probably because of this rain. I’ll cultivate first.” Sensing the opportunity for a breakthrough, Fu Muyu said, “Only by improving my strength can I deal with any problems that may arise.”
