Natural Disaster Strikes: I Stockpiled Billions and Carved My Way Through the Apocalypse

Some people tried to confuse the issue: "What are you talking about? How could we eat people?"

A few younger kids immediately jumped out and exposed him: "He's lying! He was the one who shouted the loudest just now, and he even said that kids like us, around ten years old, are the tastiest!"

The man's expression changed instantly. He turned to look at the children, his eyes flashing with malice.

Mu Jiuyue smiled and said, "It's alright. Once you're here, whoever eats another dies. It's that simple."

Mu Jiuyue is not a bodhisattva with a compassionate heart, nor does she pity all living beings.

None of the people who survive to the final round of the apocalypse are saints or saints; they are all cold-hearted, calm, and self-possessed.

The reason for killing people who have eaten human flesh is that humans who have eaten human flesh will become the preferred nutrient source for mutated animals and plants to parasitize.

Mutant animals and plants love human flesh and blood the most, as it not only accelerates their evolution but also makes them more powerful.

Mu Jiuyue didn't want piles of petri dishes to appear around her shelter, so she had no choice but to ask them to die.

Without hesitation, Mu Jiuyue released the safety and aimed it at the group of people.

"Wait! Don't shoot, let's go!" The leader panicked when he saw that Mu Jiuyue was serious and really wanted to kill them.

"I promise we won't invade your territory." The man kept backing away. "We're leaving now!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his hand and waved, and a group of people hurriedly followed in his footsteps and left in a flurry.

Mu Jiuyue lowered her weapon and said to the twenty-odd people, "Has any of you ever eaten a human?"

"No, no, we would never dare to do such a thing." The group shook their heads like rattles: "We'd eat tree bark and grass roots, but we wouldn't dare eat people!"

Mu Jiuyue nodded: "That's good. You can go up to the nearby high ground. But no one is allowed to come over to these hills. Understand?"

"Understood! Understood!" The twenty-odd people were overjoyed.

Even if you can't join this person's group, living near him greatly increases your safety.

After these twenty-odd refugees moved to a nearby high hill, they imitated the shelters by digging caves and trenches to make their dwellings.

Mu Jiuyue then turned and called over someone: "Go and pick twenty men, bring plenty of weapons, and before those people get too far, get them all..."

Mu Jiuyue made a throat-slitting gesture and asked, "Do you understand?"

"I understand! But, Ah Jiu, why?" the other person asked, puzzled. "Didn't they already leave? Do you think they'll come back?"

"Whether they can come back, I don't know. But I will absolutely not allow a bunch of petri dishes to eye our shelter." Mu Jiuyue answered coldly and calmly, "Guess what they will do when they find out that they have been inexplicably chosen by mutated animals and plants and turned into petri dishes? Try to survive? Or will they drag others down with them?"

The people behind him were all jolted awake and reacted instantly.

"So that's what you meant when you asked them if they had ever eaten people?"

Mu Jiuyue retorted, "What else?"

Those men dared not waste any more time and turned back to call for reinforcements.

We absolutely have to eliminate those refugees beforehand; we can't let them pose a risk to the shelter!

When Mu Jiuyue returned to the mountain shelter, she saw Wei Lie having someone launch a drone.

"You're back?" Wei Lie handed the remote control to Mu Jiuyue: "Take a look."

Mu Jiuyue took the remote control and, after just a few tries, mastered how to use it.

"This is a brand-new, hand-built drone. Without satellites, it can barely operate for three hours, with a range of 200 kilometers. But that means it won't have enough power to return. The safe range is within 100 kilometers," Wei Lie explained. "What do you think?"

Mu Jiuyue gave a thumbs up: "Talent is power! This way, we won't need to send too many people out on patrol."

"Yes, we have limited manpower, and everyone's in a specific position," Wei Lie said. "Have you settled all those refugees?"

"Hmm." Mu Jiuyue tilted her head and replied, "Wei Lie, I have a bad feeling. The Central Shelter has caused trouble for our K City time and time again. These waves of refugees are probably just a test. The real trouble is probably yet to come."

Wei Lie smiled and said, "We really think alike. That's why I'm urging them to develop drones as soon as possible for comprehensive reconnaissance."

"The Central Shelter's behavior is rather unseemly," Mu Jiuyue said disdainfully. "They've completely lost their sense of shame."

"Who told us to be rich?" Wei Lie said with a smile. "But we're not pushovers either, are we?"

Mu Jiuyue returned control of the drone to Wei Lie and said, "Let's prepare for war. The Central Shelter is up to something, frantically drawing young men from nearby shelters. They'll do anything for power and profit. No matter what they do, if they cause trouble in front of us, we absolutely cannot let them succeed."

“Of course.” Wei Lie nodded solemnly in agreement: “This is our base.”

Mu Jiuyue yawned and prepared to go back to rest, but before she had taken a few steps, Wei Lie called her back.

"Huh?" Mu Jiuyue turned around and looked at Wei Lie with a puzzled expression.

"Here you go." Wei Lie tossed something to Mu Jiuyue, who caught it.

It is a very fresh apple.

This shows how carefully it was preserved.

"Get some rest." Wei Lie didn't explain.

"Thanks!" Mu Jiuyue didn't ask any further questions.

Mu Jiuyue walked back home while casually munching on an apple. When she got home, she saw Lao Hou diligently washing the bed sheets and curtains.

"Why hand wash? I've stocked up on a lot of washing machines, haven't I?" Mu Jiuyue asked, sitting down next to Lao Hou.

"This isn't ours." Old Hou's ears turned suspiciously red, and he stammered, "Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I'm finding something to do so I won't be idle."

Mu Jiuyue stopped eating her apple and leaned forward to look at Lao Hou: "Are you in a relationship?"

"Go away, go away, what nonsense are you asking about?" Old Hou said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense. How old am I? What do I need to talk about love!"

"Thirty-seven isn't that old," Mu Jiuyue replied. "Alright, alright, whatever makes you happy. Just remember not to get scammed this time!"

Old Hou grabbed a bar of soap and pretended to hit Mu Jiuyue, but Mu Jiuyue nimbly dodged and hid in the room.

"That brat!" Old Hou chuckled and scolded, but his eyes softened considerably.

Since the new version of the drone was introduced, Mu Jiuyue no longer needs to go through the trouble of leading people on patrols.

I had a comfortable few days.

However, on this day, a bonfire was suddenly lit on a distant mountaintop.

Moreover, it burned very quickly and rapidly, indicating that the matter was serious.

Mu Jiuyue led her people over and saw a child who said anxiously, "Brother, something bad has happened! I saw a lot of refugees heading this way today!"

"How much is 'a lot'?" Mu Jiuyue asked.

"Several thousand people? Maybe tens of thousands. A huge, dense mass." The child replied anxiously, "They're all coming this way!"

Mu Jiuyue's face immediately darkened.
