Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 230: Chapter 126 Yang Shenmin’s Ability_3

The two quickly exited and found Elder Lin.

Elder Lin counted the previous day’s fish catch. Because time was tight and they were later attacked by the Frog Monsters, last night’s catch wasn’t much, totaling just over a hundred.

Liang Yuan immediately unleashed a Spirit Shock, instantly killing all the fish.

He then instructed, "Use the rail to trade these fish back later. Also, for the fish you owe me, trade them through the rail too. Zhao Kai and I plan to head back right away."

Elder Lin was surprised and quickly tried to persuade them to stay. "So soon? Aren’t you going to rest a bit? It’s not even dawn yet."

Having just experienced the Frog Monster attack, Elder Lin was naturally worried. He definitely wanted Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai to stay.

What if more monsters crawled up to attack everyone?

Without these two experts, he’d be truly insecure.

Liang Yuan naturally saw his concern and said, "Daoist Lin, the Frog Monsters are probably not a random occurrence."

"They are originally amphibious creatures. After staying in the water for too long, they naturally think of coming ashore."

"Now that the land is submerged, only these tall buildings remain above water. They will surely find a way to climb up."

"It’s not just frogs; other amphibious creatures will have the same habits."

"You need to be extra careful in defense."

Elder Lin’s face turned bitter and he said, "What good is my defense, Mr. Liang? You saw those Frog Monsters. They are terrifying. My Golden Light Technique might scare people, but it won’t scare those monsters."

"No matter what, please stay for a couple more days to calm everyone down."

Liang Yuan shook his head. "Zhao Kai and I live in building 76, and they need us there too."

"Daoist Lin, if I were you, I would immediately arrange for people to lock the corridor doors downstairs and ensure the corridors below are disconnected."

"That way, even if mutant creatures climb up, we can effectively control them within a limited area."

"Moreover, Shi Haizhu and Dr. Yang have already awakened their mutant abilities. They also have combat power. Develop their abilities well, and I believe you can defend building 75."

Elder Lin was speechless. "This... this..."

Liang Yuan said no more and called Zhao Kai, "Let’s go back."

Zhao Kai nodded, and the two immediately ran to the rooftop. noveldrama

Without giving Elder Lin a chance to hold them back, they climbed the rope rail and slid directly to the opposite building.

In no time, the two had disappeared into the stormy night.

Elder Lin stood in the rain, watching this scene with mixed emotions.

He couldn’t help but stomp his foot. "Sigh! Why don’t we have such talent in building 75?"

Looking at the pitch-black water, he suddenly panicked.

"I hope Xiaoyang and Zhuzi recover quickly. Relying on this old Daoist alone is too hard."

Elder Lin pulled a bitter face and rushed back inside.

...

"Squeak—"

The sound of the rope friction came, and Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai moved quickly.

With the help of the height difference and gravitational acceleration, they soon slid to about the 19th floor of building 76.

The rope here was tied to a load-bearing pillar, making it quite secure.

The two went through the balcony and jumped into the room.

The two homeowners on watch inside were shocked.

"Who?"

"Shit, someone’s here!"

The two homeowners immediately shouted and quickly called out.

One of them quickly took out a lighter and lit a torch.

The firelight illuminated the living room and revealed Liang Yuan and Zhao Kai’s figures.

"Mr. Liang, Captain Zhao!"

The two were immediately overjoyed and hurriedly greeted them.

Liang Yuan recognized them and smiled, "Wang An, Wu Ying? Why are you two here?"

These two were Wu Ying, who had initially defected to Liang Yuan, and Wang An, whose child had sepsis.

Wu Ying had offered Chen Hong’s supplies as a pledge to join Liang Yuan and got the role of a patrol captain.

Later, he proactively recruited Wang An, who kept a Golden Python, and Huang Han. Together, they formed a patrol team.

With Liang Yuan’s support, the three of them fulfilled their patrol duties well.

Liang Yuan hadn’t expected that they would be guarding the ropeway at night after patrolling during the day.

Wu Ying hurriedly said, "Mr. Liang, this is Unit Five. It’s our duty to watch over it."

"You don’t need to watch personally. You could hire any homeowner and pay them, right?"

Wu Ying felt a bit embarrassed and didn’t speak.

Wang An proactively explained, "Mr. Liang, I wanted to do it."

"Oh? Why?"

Wang An gave a bitter smile. "My daughter contracted sepsis because she didn’t eat vegetables, right? Now, although she’s received enough vitamins, she’s still weak."

"As the saying goes, illness strikes like a landslide but heals like reeling silk. Her resistance hasn’t recovered. I thought of doing more work to earn more food to nourish her."

Liang Yuan was silent for a moment, then asked Wu Ying, "How are the rewards for guarding the ropeway?"

"You can get two buns for a night’s work. Many people fight for the job." Wu Ying smiled.

Now, fish were a standard currency in the building, but buns were a highly sought-after item.

Who wouldn’t want to eat some hot buns?

Liang Yuan nodded and said, "If you have difficulties, tell me. If your daughter needs more vitamins, I have some left."

"Thank you, Mr. Liang." Wang An said gratefully.

Liang Yuan then asked, "Since I left, has there been any trouble in the building?"

Wang An opened his mouth but hesitated to speak.

Wu Ying’s eyes flickered too, and he didn’t say anything.

Liang Yuan immediately frowned and said sternly, "Are you hiding something from me? What happened?"

Wu Ying quickly replied, "Mr. Liang, we wouldn’t dare hide anything from you. It’s just... we don’t know how to explain."
