Chapter 420: Level Up ( 1 )
Pei Yixie returned the point card to him and said, "Brother, we have cleaned up the house. Now, we only lack furniture and supplies."
Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi let out a chuckle and said, "I almost forgot about this matter."
After asking Pei Yixie's preference for furniture, she waved her hand and took out furniture that was similar to her request. It took them two hours to finish furnishing the house.
Before leaving, Jiao Lizhi took out enough supplies to last them for a few days and said, "If you have run out of supplies, just let me know. I will give you more."
"Thank you, Sister-in-law," Pei Yixie replied with a bright smile.
After the apocalypse, she was finally able to experience the comfortable living style. Her decision to come find her half-brother was the best decision she ever made in her life!
While she was feeling happy, Fu Guai suddenly grabbed her hand and said, 'I want chicken meat and my octopus.'
Hearing his thoughts, Pei Yixie said, "Brother Fu, where did we get the chicken meat and octopus?"
'Jiao Lizhi still has my octopus. Ask it from her,' he thought.
Pei Yixie looked at him for a moment before she let out a sigh and said, "Sister-in-law, Brother Fu said you still have his octopus and chicken meat. He wants to eat it."
When she heard this, Jiao Lizhi was speechless. The mutant chicken and mutant octopus were clearly caught by her and her fiancé. Since when did they become Fu Guai's belongings?
Meeting his yearning gaze, she recalled that this man was not the usual person. As a mutant, his diet was different from humans. Thinking about this, she took out a big chunk of octopus's tentacle and three mutant chicken's eggs from her space.
"There is only chicken egg, no chicken meat," Jiao Lizhi said before leaving.
Even though there was no chicken meat, the taste of the mutant chicken egg was as delicious as the normal chicken meat. So, Fu Guai had no complaints at all and turned to Pei Yixie.
'I'm hungry. I want to eat scrambled eggs and grilled octopus,' he thought.
"Brother Fu, I didn't sign up to become your chef. I'm just your voice," Pei Yixie reminded him.
'I'm hungry.'
Facing this stubborn man, she could only roll her eyes and resigned to her fate, "Alright, alright. I will prepare your dinner. Go wait on the couch and don't bother me."
As soon as he heard this, Fu Guai let go of her wrist and sat on the couch. With his hands on his knees, he stared at her back as she prepared the meal.
With enough seasonings, even a simple grilled octopus smelled heavenly. Taking a deep breath, he couldn't help but salivate. But recalling her warning, he could only wait obediently on the couch with a rumbling stomach.
When the food was ready, the two of them ate their dinner before they took a shower and went to sleep. With the Phantom Team members living in the same buildings, it was convenient for them to get water from Chen Qianfeng and supplies from Xiao Qi or Feng Yun.
While the members shared their night peacefully, another day had passed.
Early in the morning, Jiao Lizhi and Jin Xuyan went to the Hydroponic Farm area. In just one night, the reservoir had been built, and they were working on setting up the farm and building the walls.
As the two of them rode on the bicycle, they looked at the layers of hydroponic farms.
When they discussed this farm yesterday, Jiao Lizhi only felt that the number was enough to support everyone. But now that she saw the farm slowly taking shape, she realized how massive the farm was.
It took them forty minutes to reach the reservoir from the entrance of the farm. After they arrived, Jiao Lizhi stored the bicycle in her space and went to check the newly built dam.
Seeing them coming, Wen Hanli walked over and greeted them, "Captain Jin, Comrade Jiao, you are here."
Noticing the dark circles under his eyes, Jiao Lizhi asked, "Comrade Wen, are you staying here the whole night?"
Wen Hanli nodded and replied, "The time is limited, so the Commander ordered us to complete the dam as soon as possible. Thanks to everyone's hard work, we managed to finish the dam within a day."
Since the dam was ready, Jiao Lizhi said, "I will start filling the dam then."
"We have posted a notice to recruit every water-type ability-user to help fill the dam," Wen Hanli said.
Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi nodded and walked to the edge of the dam. Unlike the cylindrical-shaped dam in the Water Reservoir area, this dam was built in a circular shape.
After they climbed the stairs and stood at the top of the wall, Wen Hanli explained, "The wall of the dam is fifty meters high from the ground, but the dam was actually built deeper.
The actual height is 100 meters. The length of the dam ring is 45 km, and it can hold around 16 billion liters of water."
Looking at the massive building similar to a small sea, Jin Xuyan said, "Vice Commander Wen, I never expected your team to be this efficient. Not only are you able to gather so many ability-users to build the dam, but you are even able to get an engineer."
Hearing this, Wen Hanli smiled and replied, "This time, we are lucky. The Yunshan City Base sent a group of engineers to help us build our wall. Amongst them, there is one person who worked for the government and was responsible for building a mega project in the desert before."
"When the apocalypse arrived, he was in Yunshan City to report the project progress and escaped with the design. This time, we used the design directly, which saved us lots of time and trouble."
When he heard this, Jin Xuyan raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh? What is this engineer's name?"
