Ice Age Apocalypse: I've Stockpiled Billions of Resources

"The person who threatened me, Liu Shanhai, hasn't shown up. Your Ye family wants to coexist peacefully with my Liu family. Does your Liu family have the right to do so?"

Liu Shanhai clenched his fists tightly, ready to teach the Ye family a lesson.

He ordered his men to arrest those threatening the Ye family and release his two younger brothers.

Liu Shanhai was never one to sit idly by and wait for death; he preferred to use violence to combat violence.

"I don't want any unexpected things to happen while I'm doing things."

"Don't worry, young master, I won't let anything happen."

Wei Zhengbo, along with Xiong Da, prepared to further stabilize the situation.

...

Resource island.

A submarine stopped at an open space below the cliff, and more than thirty people got out of it.

Lin Luo had just stepped out of the submarine and was looking at the cliff that was more than fifty meters high.

"I looked for many places to log in, and this is one of the better ones."

Hazuki said somewhat apologetically.

"It's okay, it doesn't matter where you log in."

Lin Luo didn't see anything wrong with it.

"This island is different from the other islands we've experienced. Those islands were all covered in dense forests, but from above, this resource island is all rocks, with valleys in the middle. It's hard to see above when you're inside, and it's also hard to see below from the sky."

Hazuki sensed that this resource island was far from simple, containing many dangers she had never encountered before.

"Be as careful as possible."

Lin Luo reminded him.

“Let’s go forward first; staying here isn’t a good thing.”

Old Ye planned to climb up first; at over fifty years old, he was in excellent physical condition.

"No need to rush up, wait a moment."

Before Lao Ye could ask Lin Luo why, one "goat" after another climbed down from above.

"Is that a blue sheep?"

Hazuki hadn't expected to find such a creature here; the argali is a special type of goat that lives in the Tibetan region.

The blue sheep leaped and bounded on the cliffs, searching for food.

Because their living environment is too dangerous, they have few natural enemies.

The blue sheep has yellow eyes with a vertical line down the middle of its pupils, giving it exceptionally good eyesight.

After a series of leaps, the ibex was very close to Lin Luo.

Hazuki asked, somewhat confused, "What should we do with these argali sheep?"

“Shoot them. These argali sheep are likely coming to drive us away. All groups are territorial, and our arrival has made them feel threatened.”

Lin Luo explained.

The Ye family bodyguards picked up their rifles and fired a burst of shots at the argali sheep.

The argali sheep collapsed and tumbled down the cliff.

A significantly larger ibex jumped down from above, and despite being shot two or three times, it did not fall.

This is likely the leader of the ibex; it jumped to the ground and immediately launched an attack on Hazuki.

The group tried to fire to protect Hazuki, but it was clearly too late.

At this critical moment, Lin Luo stood in front of Ye Yue and grabbed the ibex's horn with his bare hands.

Unlike ordinary goats, argali goats have more curved horns, making them more difficult to catch.

The argali leader was very strong, no less so than Lin Luo.

Old Ye couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Vice City Lord Lin is incredibly strong, much stronger than the average argali sheep. He can even fight against the argali sheep leader."

Lin Luo has become the second person in charge of the Ye family's underground city. The way people address him has changed; he has become the deputy city lord.

"Should we fire a shot to help?"

"I can't believe it," Hazuki said hastily.

"Let's not. The ram chieftain has already been shot several times. As blood continues to flow from his wounds, he will become increasingly weak. At that point, Deputy City Lord Lin will have the upper hand. If we fire, it might drive the ram chieftain mad."

Old Ye shook his head.

“Then let’s deal with the argali sheep up there. These argali sheep are hostile to us. When we fired our guns, they didn’t retreat; instead, they attacked us.”

The Ye family continued dealing with the remaining argali sheep, while Lin Luo was about to settle the score with the argali sheep leader.

His hand was free, so he slapped the ram leader on the head.

The ibex leader felt excruciating pain as its four hooves sank deep into the mud.

Lin Luo kicked the ram leader hard again, and finally the ram leader couldn't take it and collapsed.

Perhaps sensing the death of their leader, the remaining ibex stopped coming down from above.

Hazuki breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This resource island is quite dangerous. We were attacked before we even got on the island."

“There are many argali carcasses here, which are likely edible. Let’s call Uncle Jiang back and have him transport them out.”

"Okay, I'll contact them right away."

Ye Yue used a satellite phone to reconnect with Jiang Zhiming, and the submarine returned and stopped beside him.

Several people emerged from the submarine and carried the argali sheep away.

Jiang Zhiming said, "Vice City Lord Lin, we Ye family are so lucky to have you join us. We haven't even set foot on the island yet, and you've already brought back several hundred catties of mutton. Now my daughter is complaining that she's getting fat from eating beef and mutton every day."

"Look at what you're saying. I didn't do it all by myself; I still need everyone's help."

Lin Luo said politely.

Jiang Zhiming said, "Don't be modest. The Ye family used to explore islands often, but they often brought back few things and many people died. Now it's different; we can't even finish eating all the meat."

The submarine departed carrying more than a dozen Himalayan ibex carcasses, which, after being studied, were determined to be edible before being consumed.

"Let's go up. This place is too small. Some of the larger fish can still get up here."

Lin Luo was the first to climb up the cliff and reach the top.

Hazuki struggled to climb the cliff and was exhausted just as she was about to reach the top.

Just as she was about to rest, a strong hand reached out.

Hazuki reached out and took Lin Luo's hand.

Lin Luo was very strong and pulled Ye Yue up in one go.

"No wonder the blue sheep live here, the ground is covered with grass."

Hazuki saw a vast grassland that stretched as far as the eye could see.

Lin Luo could see further: "The valley is at the end of this grassland."

After a while, all the members of the Ye family climbed up.

Old Ye said, "We had no hostility towards these argali sheep, but we didn't expect them to attack us first."

“There are also some blue sheep there.”

As the group approached, the remaining ibex chose to leave.

Some of the slower ibex calves were abandoned on the spot.

This type of blue sheep is different from the blue sheep in Tibet. It is a completely new species and is much stronger than the common blue sheep. It is not afraid of guns or humans.

But having just experienced humans and guns, they have developed a fear of them.

"Vice City Lord Lin, what should we do with these lambs?"

Old Ye asked.

Lin Luo shook his head and said, "Let's not deal with them. These lambs will grow up to be argali sheep. If we lack food, we can come back. Besides, they have already developed a fear of us and won't attack us like before."

"You are still thoughtful."

The group continued their journey, heading towards the valley.

The valley walls are very high, about 100 meters or more, and the mountaintop is not visible at a glance.

Fortunately, the rock layers on both sides are relatively thick, so landslides are unlikely to occur.
