Apocalypse: Resources Consumed by Women Returned Ten Thousandfold-Chapter 35: Community Supplies Exchange Convention

Chapter 35: Chapter 35: Community Supplies Exchange Convention

In the dense grass.

A flash of cold light!

A small tuft of grass leaves fell down.

"Ugh!"

A young man sat down with a thud.

"We’ve been at this for so long, and we’ve only cut this little? At this rate, it’ll take us forever to finish cutting all the grass."

A few other young men also sat down in succession.

The "Light of Righteousness" encouraged:

"Come on, brothers! As long as we keep cutting, we’ll finish one day!"

But someone said:

"The question is, why us? Look up, you’ll see so many people just sitting comfortably at home watching us work. Are we their servants?"

"It’s because we’re Superpower Users! The greater the Ability, the greater the responsibility!"

"Hmph! This neighborhood isn’t full of just us Superpower Users! Isn’t that woman of Lin Bulang a Superpower User too? Why don’t we see her down here?"

"I’m even beginning to suspect that the mysterious benefactor who gave us the Superpower Fruit did it on purpose! He had Superpower Fruits yet didn’t eat them himself, giving them to us instead? Clearly, he wants us to do the work for him, be his manual labor!"

"Don’t say that. We decided to go out and cut grass ourselves! Without the mysterious benefactor’s support these days, we would’ve starved long ago!" 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺

"You have a point..."

...

The group complained for a while.

But they stood up again.

And continued working...

Suddenly.

Someone shouted:

"Hey! Brothers! Look at what I found!"

The group followed the sound and looked over.

They saw someone had picked up a strange plastic package.

They gathered around and opened the package.

Inside was a can of luncheon meat, a pack of compressed biscuits, a bag of purified water, and some emergency medicines!

"This is rescue supplies!"

Someone exclaimed!

They suddenly remembered that the authorities had organized a helicopter supply drop action before.

It was intercepted by a Demon Beast on the way.

Resulting in the supplies being lost.

Turns out they ended up here!

The group was ecstatic:

"Let’s hurry and look around! There must be more nearby!"

Immediately!

They had greater motivation.

Frantically searching in the grass!

"I found one!"

"Me too!"

"Here’s another one!"

...

In no time!

They found more than a dozen supply packages!

However.

Just as they wanted to continue searching.

They heard rustling sounds from afar.

"Hmm? Has the wind picked up?"

The surrounding weeds didn’t move.

But the weeds in the distance quickly collapsed towards them.

As if something was approaching!

And at this moment.

Those standing on higher floors could clearly see, a black python at least twenty meters long was slithering towards the group!

"Damn!"

Countless people screamed in panic!

The group cutting grass also sensed something was wrong, hurriedly gathering the supplies on the ground to prepare for a retreat.

But just then...

Hiss!

The giant python suddenly burst through the grass, its bloody mouth wide open!

"Damn!"

The group immediately abandoned the supplies and sprinted towards the entrance of Building C, Unit 1!

Fortunately, they had all consumed the Superpower Fruit by this time.

Their reactions and speed far exceeded ordinary people.

So none of them lagged behind, rapidly closing in on the doorway!

"Hurry up, guys!"

The Light of Righteousness was running at the front, daring to look back for a moment.

He saw that the python’s head was about the size of a small car!

It could probably swallow two people in one bite!

He immediately realized, this was a true Fierce Beast!

The rat they had killed in the building before, and even those insects, didn’t even count as Fierce Beasts!

Not just them.

Even if there were a hundred more people, they might not be enough to fill this giant python!

...

[Black-Scaled Python]

[Combat Power: C+]

[Ability: Tearing Bite (Level 2); Entanglement (Level 3); Eye of Deterrence (Level 1)]

Lin Lang stood at the window of 2202, calmly observing everything happening below.

The young men were running for their lives.

Finally, they ran to the gate without any danger.

It looked like they were about to escape to freedom.

But.

"Light of Righteousness" was the first to run to the gate and reached out to pull the iron gate open.

However, the iron gate had been exposed to the damp Red Mist for such a long time without maintenance, and it was covered in rust!

Or perhaps "Light of Righteousness" used too much force!

He unexpectedly pulled the iron gate off its hinges!

Bam!

The iron gate slammed to the ground.

It also meant their hearts finally sank!

Now, even if they ran into the building, it couldn’t protect them.

Moreover.

If the giant serpent was drawn into the building, it would kill more people.

At this moment.

The giant serpent was already behind them, its huge shadow engulfing them.

They only felt.

As if death’s shadow had enveloped them.

The serpent’s pair of blood-red vertical pupils, like the eyes of a Demon, stared fixedly at them.

Run?

The strength in their bodies seemed drained, and they couldn’t move at all!

They just stood there blankly.

Waiting to become the serpent’s dinner.

"Eye of Deterrence? It’s about suppressing enemies with a gaze so they can’t move, huh? Quite interesting."

Lin Lang smiled slightly.

Downstairs.

The serpent opened its gaping mouth, lunging at a person before it...

"It’s over!"

That person thought only this and involuntarily closed their eyes.

But in the next second!

Boom!

Pieces of floor tiles exploded directly!

A huge plant root broke through the ground!

Like a giant green python, it whipped through the air, then crashed down heavily!

Bam!

The massive root slammed hard onto the Black-Scaled Python’s vulnerable spot.

The python was directly smashed into two halves!

"Hiss—"

Both halves of the python writhed.

But after a short struggle, they stopped moving.

Lin Lang watched as the serpent’s Superpower Core went dim and sat back down in his chair.

"Tweet, tweet, tweet!"

Xiaohu stood on the computer desk, tilting its head to look at him.

"Although you’re a Fierce Beast, you can’t just eat people randomly. Otherwise, that would be your fate, understand?"

"Tweet, tweet, tweet!"

...

After the giant plant root killed the serpent, it burrowed back underground.

Leaving only a deep trench on the surface!

Everyone was shocked!

The young men stood dumbly in place, splattered with the serpent’s blood.

They could hardly believe everything that had happened!

By following the trench’s trail, it was easy to deduce that the towering tree had saved them!

They looked at each other, unable to process it all at once.

It took quite a while before they came back to their senses.

They entered the building.

They picked up the fallen gate and propped it against the door frame.

Though it wouldn’t do much.

It gave them a sense of safety.

Meanwhile, in the community, those who witnessed everything firsthand were inwardly exclaiming:

"Wow! That’s amazing!"

"The tree saved them!"

"This! This is a Divine Tree!"

"I just captured it on video! I got it! I’m going to post it online!"

"Could this tree have gained sentience? Has it become a Demon? I don’t think we should keep it around!"

...

Not long after.

In the WeChat residents’ group, Light of Righteousness posted some pictures.

They were of the rescue supplies they found today:

[The last helicopter rescue left supplies in the community, everyone can go pick some up!]

Today, they realized the terror of external Fierce Beasts!

If they had to go out alone again to clear the weeds, they wouldn’t dare.

So, they decided to release the news about external supplies to attract the entire community to join the efforts in weed clearing!

This way, it wouldn’t take long.

To clear all the weeds in the community!

Meanwhile.

Lin Lang was also planning to hold a community resource trade assembly once the weeds were cleared!

This way!

They could exchange for more varieties of supplies!
