Ice Age Apocalypse: I've Stockpiled Billions of Resources

Shi Cheng sneered, "If I hadn't said that, why would you have given us the gray fruit to eat?"

Zhu Ju laughed triumphantly, "What a turnaround! We were eaten by the squirrels and used as food. There couldn't be worse than that. If you hadn't saved me, I wouldn't have dared to eat the mutated fruit in this state."

"I really need to thank you all."

Shi Cheng nodded.

"You two are really despicable."

Cao Mao spat.

Shi Cheng smiled and threatened, "We two are indeed despicable. You will hand over the mutated fruit to us. In the meantime, don't even think about eating it. The mutated fruit needs time to take effect. If you do anything unusual, I will kill you immediately."

Zhu Ju laughed loudly, "I've seen fools before, but I've never seen fools like you. I thought the people the Liu family was targeting were incredibly powerful, but I didn't expect them to be this weak. You believed just a few words."

Shi Cheng agreed, saying, "We will have to reassess the strength of the Liu family in the future; they are much weaker than we predicted."

"I agree."

Zhu Ju nodded.

"Let's make our move before things get complicated."

Shi Cheng took a step forward and swung his massive fist.

A flash of light appeared, and Shi Cheng stood still, ceasing his attack.

His face turned pale, and there was a deep wound on his neck from which blood was flowing.

His entire head fell off, and Shi Cheng's lower body slammed heavily onto the ground.

"This...how is this possible!"

Zhu Ju stared at the headless corpse, unable to believe what had happened.

Shi Cheng ate the mutated fruit and became much stronger than before, but Lin Luo beheaded him with a single stroke.

He was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, emanating a foul stench of excrement and urine.

Cao Mao exclaimed in surprise, "I felt that Lin Luo was already very strong when dealing with the purple monster, but I didn't expect that the purple monster would limit Lin Luo's performance. Lin Luo's true strength is even greater."

Cao Shengnan exclaimed excitedly, "As expected of the man I admire, he is indeed powerful enough."

Lin Luo said, "I originally wanted to find two people to experiment with the gray fruit, and two of them happened to come along. The results were quite good, and the experiment was successful."

Hazuki said angrily, "Those two are despicable. We kindly saved them, and as soon as they gained power through the Gray Fruit, they tried to attack us."

Old Ye said, "This Zhu Ju isn't a good person either, let's kill him together."

Zhu Ju begged for mercy, saying, "Spare my life! I'll do anything you ask if you'll let me go."

Cao Mao stroked his chin and said, "Zhu Ju's flying ability is quite good for us, but he is uncontrollable. If he flies away suddenly when we relax, we will be completely helpless."

Cao Shengnan said, "Uncle is right. If it's uncontrollable, it's better to just kill it."

Zhu Ju hurriedly said, "You can plant a controllable explosive on me. If I try to escape, you can detonate the bomb."

Hazuki nodded and said, "This method is quite good."

"You better behave yourself."

Old Ye personally installed the bomb on Zhu Ju.

"Let's move forward."

After drinking some energy drinks, the group regained some strength and continued walking forward.

Cao Shengnan sighed, "I don't know how far we have to go before we get out of this godforsaken place."

The events she experienced on the human island left her feeling neither excited nor at ease; it was fraught with danger, and one wrong step could mean her death.

Cao Mao said helplessly, "Let's just keep going forward, there's no other way."

"It's getting dark soon, let's rest after we cross this point."

Lin Luo wanted to rest in the squirrels' territory, but the squirrels became afraid of humans.

In addition, the squirrel population has decreased significantly, reducing their need for food.

They have enough food and will not attack humans.

This is the territory of the squirrels; most animals don't come here.

Even the black python devours prey outside the squirrel colony and doesn't come into the squirrel colony's territory to devour them.

A horde of frenzied squirrels can be terrifying; even a giant black python might not be able to withstand them.

However, everyone had psychological trauma and didn't want to stay there, fearing they wouldn't be able to sleep at night.

After walking a while longer, Lin Luo thought the place was good, and the group began to set up tents there.

Having weathered many storms, everyone was adept at setting up tents, and one tent after another was erected.

Lin Luo and Ye Yue finally broke the ice and ended up sleeping in the same tent.

Cao Mao was about to start a fire when Lin Luo stopped him.

He asked in bewilderment, "A campfire can effectively deter wild animals."

Lin Luo shook his head and said, "In the past, lighting a fire would have been an effective way to keep wild animals away, but now the area is full of dangers. Some wild animals are very powerful and are not afraid of fire at all. Lighting a fire will not keep wild animals away, but will only attract more of them."

Cao Mao nodded and said, "I didn't think it through. The creatures on Human Island are not only more terrifying than before the cataclysm, but also much more terrifying than the creatures on many other islands. Flames are like signposts to them."

Lin Luo said, "Everyone, try not to emit any light and get a good night's rest."

Hazuki asked, "Aren't we even leaving anyone on night watch?"

Lin Luo replied, "We need people on watch. We'll send out drones to patrol the area. If there's any danger, you can use walkie-talkies to alert us so we can stay alert."

Cao Mao nodded: "You've thought things through more thoroughly."

Lin Luo thought that wasn't enough, so he had everyone disguise themselves as tents.

The tent was covered with black cloth, blending into the night.

One tent is for night watch, and it also needs to be lined with light-absorbing fabric to prevent any light from getting through.

After all this was done, it was almost dark.

It was the first time everyone had spent the night on islands filled with human bodies, and they were all terrified.

Lin Luo brought out some delicious food, which put everyone at ease.

Cao Shengnan changed her form of address and said, "Brother Lin, I don't feel safe sleeping alone in the tent, and I have a hard time falling asleep at night. Why don't I sleep with you?"

Cao Mao said irritably, "Why are you meddling in their little love affair? Just go to sleep by yourself. Besides, with your abilities, if others aren't afraid, why are you?"

Cao Shengnan retorted defiantly, "Although I am more powerful, she is still a girl and needs someone to protect her."

"Come on, someone who's more boyish than a boy."

"No wonder Uncle can't find a wife, there's a reason for it."

“If you bring this up again, I’ll go back and talk to your parents and find you a boyfriend.”

Cao Mao, enraged and embarrassed, said...

"No, I know I was wrong."

Cao Shengnan quickly said, "The people they found are not as good as Brother Lin. I would still be very willing if Brother Lin were available."

The uncle and nephew argued briefly, and after everyone finished eating, they returned to their tents.

Everyone cooperated well, entering the tent to block out the light.

You can't see anything from inside the tent, but it's better than being in danger outside.
