Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies

Chapter 296: Devouring Each Other



Having settled on a plan, Shi Xuan flew the drone back. Working together with Jia Xiang, he carefully secured the C4 bombs onto the drone before flying it toward the city center.

As Shi Xuan skillfully controlled the drone, everyone anxiously watched the laptop screen.

More than ten minutes passed, each second feeling like an eternity.

Finally, the drone hovered directly above the mutant rat king. Shi Xuan adjusted its position, ensuring it was out of the blast radius, then slowly tilted the drone's container.

As the C4 bombs fell, everyone held their breath.

Just as the explosives were about to hit the mutant rat king's head, its two glowing red eyes snapped open, and it opened its mouth wide. In an instant, it swallowed all C4 bombs into its stomach.

The next second, its eyes widened in pain, and a deafening explosion resounded throughout Juncheng City.

Boom!

The scene on the laptop's screen shook, leaving everyone momentarily speechless.

Huang Qian was the first to react. He burst into laughter so intense that tears appeared in the corner of his eyes.

"Ha ha ha ha! Did that mutant rat king think we were feeding it a treat? Ha ha ha ha!"

While Huang Qian was laughing uncontrollably, Shi Xuan stabilized the drone and then zoomed in on the mutant rat king's location. When the dust settled, the screen revealed a vast, scorched ground covered in minced meat and blood.

Seeing the mutant rat king's remains, along with countless dead mutant rats in the area, Jia Xiang cheered excitedly. "Great! Now that the mutant rat king is dead, the next step is to wipe out the mutant rats."

She turned to Yao Ran and asked, "Yao Ran, do you have more C4 bombs?"

Yao Ran replied, "I still have some, but they are back at the air raid shelter."

Hearing this, Wu Lian said, "Miss Yao, could you sell the C4 bombs to me? I can trade supplies for them."

Yao Ran still had plenty of C4, as well as other explosives she had purchased from Grandpa Xu, stored in her space. She agreed and said, "As long as the price is fair, I don't mind selling a few to you."

Wu Lian's eyes lit up at her response, and he smiled, "Don't worry. I will give you a fair price."

With their main mission completed, all that remained was to eliminate the mutant rats from Juncheng City. However, having used most of their ammunition and explosives, they decided to return to Long Yu's air raid shelter to resupply before coming back to finish the mission.

As they packed up and left the suburbs of Juncheng City, the first rays of sunlight stretched across the eastern horizon. In the city center, black vines could be seen slithering under the ruins as they retreated underground.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

With the death of the mutant rat king, other mutant animals outside Juncheng City swarmed into the area. Without their king's protection, the mutant rats had become prey for other mutant animals and plants.

Unaware of the battles raging between mutant creatures in Juncheng City, Yao Ran yawned and leaned against her boyfriend's shoulder.

She closed her eyes and said tiredly, "A Yu, please wake me up when we arrive. I'm going to take a nap."

Long Yu glanced at the bluish shadows under her eyes and felt a pang of heartache. He wrapped his arms around her and helped her adjust her position so she could rest more comfortably.

Seeing sunlight falling on her face, he raised his palm to block it and whispered softly, "Sweet dreams, Ran Ran."

Watching their interaction in the rearview mirror, Wu Lian shook his head helplessly and looked away. It was incredible how love could transform a cold and ruthless man into a gentle and considerate boyfriend.

On their way back to the air raid shelter, they encountered several groups of mutant animals, but none paid them any attention.

When Wu Lian saw the fifth group of mutant animals rush past them as if they were invisible, he scratched his head, his eyes filled with doubt, and muttered in confusion, "Is this car invisible? How could those mutant animals just pass us without even sparing a glance?" "...." Listening to his questions, the soldier who was driving the SUV was speechless. After a moment of silence, the soldier asked, "Captain, isn't it a good thing those mutant animals ignored us?"

Before Wu Lian could reply, Long Yu said, "If something unusual happens, there is always a reason behind it. Since those mutant animals ignore us, there must be something more attractive to them at this moment than eating us."

"Judging from their direction, the destination of those mutated animals must be Juncheng City. But what could be more attractive for those mutant animals than human flesh?"

Hearing Long Yu's words, Wu Lian fell into thought. After thinking about it, his eyes lit up. He looked at Long Yu through the rearview mirror and saw Long Yu nod to him.

After receiving Long Yu's confirmation, Wu Lian's face darkened. He clenched his hands and said, "Those mutant animals are fighting and devouring each other to choose a new king."

The soldier was surprised when he heard this. After a few seconds of silence, Wu Lian added, "Speed up. We must clean up Juncheng City as soon as possible."

"Yes, Captain." The soldier nodded and stepped on the accelerator.

With Yao Ran asleep and Wu Lian's mind preoccupied, they spend the rest of the journey in silence.

When they arrived back at the air raid shelter, Long Yu didn't wake Yao Ran but carried her to her room. He carefully wiped her face, hands, and feet before filling the portable air conditioner with water and ice and then turning it on.

After ensuring she could rest comfortably, Long Yu quietly left, closing the door behind him.

When Yao Ran woke up, it was already evening. After taking a bath and changing into clean clothes, she headed to the dining room.
