Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Although Tian Qiu and Ye Zhou weren’t in the same courtyard, they quickly got to know each other and became friends. Coincidentally, Ye Xingchen put them in the same building when assigning their residences.

Moreover, it wasn’t just the two of them. There were also a few people who had previously worked for the government who were also here with Ye Xingchen.

Ye Xingchen had placed these technical talents together when he had assigned them. He had even specially instructed them to focus on protecting their safety. After all, Ye Xingchen had thought about it. Even if he had downloaded so many learning materials and read so many books, some things still needed to be done by professionals.

For example, the current experiment.

No matter how many books he read and how much knowledge he learned, he might not be able to use that knowledge in a short period of time.

Tian Qiu and Ye Zhou quickly carried a large bag of sea salt each and went back to the laboratory with the others to start their research.

Now that the sea salt was being researched by someone, it was the rats’ turn.

Lin Sijia arranged the cleaned crystals and the big black rats that had lost their heads neatly.

After leaving the small room, Lin Sijia carefully cleaned and disinfected her body before taking off her protective gear.

She was a doctor, and she did not have any professional expertise in research. Therefore, she only took three small crystals dug out from the heads of the mice and handed them over to the group of people who specialized in biological research.

Then, Lin Sijia turned her attention to the fish in the pond.

“Can you catch one?”

Lin Sijia looked at Ye Xingchen eagerly.

She was too curious. Although she didn’t see how these fish grew to such a huge size with her own eyes, she had seen Ye Xingchen bring back buckets of half-dead fish. Lin Sijia roughly knew what size these fish were originally.

Their original body size was already exaggerated. They were about one or two times bigger than the seafood they used to eat.

However, the fish in the pond were not only twice as big.

The originally spacious swimming pool was now filled with huge seafood.

“If they’re all edible, then these fish are enough for all of us to eat.”

Ye Xingchen looked at the pool full of seafood and could not help but tease.

It was hard for him not to suspect that there was something in the sea salt that allowed marine creatures to grow rapidly.

Perhaps it was radiation or something else, but Ye Xingchen felt that this was not a good thing.

He had a feeling that the extreme cold they had experienced and the extreme heat they were experiencing now were just the beginning of the end of the world.

Looking at the unusually huge rats and the ridiculous sea creatures in the pond, Ye Xingchen originally thought that if those fish could be raised, he might be able to buy more and raise them in the pool. After all, even if there were seafood in his space, they were almost all dead or dry.

Of course, dried and frozen fish couldn’t be compared to fresh fish. Ye Xingchen really thought of raising some fish.

However, he looked at the pool again. He really couldn’t eat the monsters in this pool. Who knew if there was something mutated in their bodies? If he ate them, would he also mutate?

It was faster than Ye Xingchen had imagined. Tian Qiu and the others came back on the fourth day.

It was Tian Qiu who spoke first.

“Although it’s hard to believe, the unanimous conclusion we came to after our research is that these marine creatures have evolved at the same time as the rats you sent over, Brother Ye.”

“We couldn’t believe it at first, but other than evolution, we have no other reason to explain the changes that happened to them.”

“Actually, since ancient times, all kinds of creatures have been evolving, including us humans. Of course, this includes any marine creatures and any mammals.”

“That crystal is something that was born from their bodies after they evolved.”

After Tian Qiu finished speaking, someone walked over from behind Tian Qiu with a small box in his hand.

“The ones in this box were dug out from the heads of the fish that Brother Ye sent over. The biggest one was dug out from the octopus.”

After Ye Xingchen listened to Lin Sijia’s request, he picked and chose by the side of the pool. Then, he grabbed up a few fish that were relatively small but were still the length of an arm. There was also a relatively small octopus, which he sent to Tian Qiu and the others.

Lying inside the small box were things the size of rice grains. Ye Xingchen put on several gloves and carefully picked up one of them from the box and pinched it.

It was hard. It was the same thing as the crystal that was dug out from the rat’s head, but the size was different.

Then Ye Xingchen remembered what he had seen in those doomsday novels.

“What do you think these crystals are for? Do you think there’s a possibility that these crystals can upgrade our abilities?”

Yes, Ye Xingchen wasn’t a very charitable philanthropist. The people he recruited either had special abilities or were professionals in some field. Only Zhao Hao’s underlings were regular people.

However, Zhao Hao’s underlings were also very self-aware. They deeply felt that they were useless and felt guilty for eating Ye Xingchen’s food for free. Therefore, they volunteered to be the guards of the safety fortress and took the initiative to start their daily patrol.

After all, the only good thing about them was their physique and the skills they had learned in the army.

After Ye Xingchen led everyone to live in the safety fortress, he took in many people and tested them. Ye Xingchen also clearly informed everyone about their special abilities and also made those special abilities public knowledge. However, Ye Xingchen didn’t tell anyone about their weaknesses. After all, it was enough for Ye Xingchen to know.

Of course, they all knew about Ye Xingchen’s possession of the alternate dimension, so they knew that Ye Xingchen was the most important person in their group.

Before the apocalypse ended, as long as Ye Xingchen was alive, they would not starve to death..
