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

Chapter 140: Improving The Defense



This morning, the temperature outside has now dropped to minus twenty-two degrees Celsius. Anyone with a brain knows they need to stay indoors to survive. However, in this situation, Lu Hong actually took the initiative to patrol the Ling Yuan apartment complex.

Yao Ran couldn't help but become suspicious of his strange behavior.

Based on Lu Hong's past actions and decisions, she knew that something was fishy and that something big was brewing in the shadows.

Yao Ran thought for a while and said, "We have to be careful of him. Now that the water is frozen, it is more difficult to find supplies. The last time we came back, we brought a lot of things, and Lu Hong always spies on us. He might collude with other building managers to target us."

Long Yu agreed with her and said, "Then I will find ways to increase our defense."

Yao Ran nodded, "Alright. I will leave this matter to you."

After talking for a while, the two then separated and returned home.

Back in the bedroom, Yao Ran quickly turned on the electric heater and lit the coal stove. She checked the temperature and noticed the temperature dropped to minus twenty-three degrees Celsius.

When the temperature in the bedroom slowly rose, Yao Ran turned on the solar light and took out a pot of potato plant from her space. As soon as this pot of potato plant was exposed to cold temperatures, the leaves turned yellow and withered at a speed visible to the naked eye. Yao Ran observed the potato plant for a moment before calmly injecting wood element energy into it. A few seconds later, the yellow and withered leaves fell off the branches, and new leaves sprouted.

Twenty minutes later, the potato plant she had just planted yesterday was ready for harvest. Yao Ran harvested the potatoes and looked at the round and plump potatoes. Each one weighed more than five hundred to six hundred grams, totaling about twenty kilograms. Seeing this result, Yao Ran smiled with satisfaction. Although she does not have an ability detection machine, she knows that her wood element ability is almost reaching level one. After planting the potatoes again, Yao Ran continued to practice her wood element abilities until her wood element energy was exhausted. Then, she put the pot of potato plants back into her space.

In two hours, she harvested 120 kilograms of potatoes.

If she continues to practice her wood and water element abilities, she will have no problem feeding a large number of people in the future. By then, maybe she can form her own force to fight against The Ark.

After achieving good results in her wood element ability training, Yao Ran took out several extra large buckets from her space. Then, she moved the buckets to the living room and began to train her water ability.

With the current temperature at minus twenty-three degrees Celsius, the moment she created water with her water element ability, it would turn into ice.

Yao Ran's training plan today is to control the shape of water and make a large number of ice cubes. When the extreme heat comes, she needs lots of ice for her daily use, and now is the perfect opportunity to make ice cubes.

Not only can she train to improve her control over her ability, but she can also store more ice cubes. She can just save time and kill two birds with one stone.

With the determination to improve her abilities quickly to the next level, Yao Ran concentrated on practicing.

While Yao Ran was training hard, Long Yu went to find his friends.

Sitting inside the warm guest room, Long Yu looked at his friends and said, "Quan Yuanwei just came over and told Yao Ran and me that Lu Hong is working with other building

managers. It seems that he is planning something big."

"Most of the people living in the corridor and the elderly died last night, and Lu Hong led his people to visit the patrol from door to door. When they found that the owner of the apartment was dead, they broke in and looted the supplies."

"Judging from what they did, the peace and balance between the buildings will soon be broken. We may become Lu Hong's first target when that happens."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

After Jia Xiang listened to Long Yu's words, she said, "Captain, should we ask Quan Yuanwei to make thermal sensors and install them around the stairs and windows? At least when someone comes to attack us, we still have time to get ready for battle."

Hearing this, Shi Xuan nodded, "I agree with Jia Xiang's suggestion."

Long Yu looked at Huang Qian and asked, "Huang Qian, what do you think?"

Huang Qian thought for a while and said, "Before installing the thermal sensor, shouldn't we find a way to regenerate electricity?"

Long Yu pondered for a moment and said, "I think we can ask Quan Yuanwei to see if he can make something that can regenerate electricity. If he can, we can also ask him to make a thermal sensor. Of course, we will pay him for his work."

"What about Lu Hong? Should we do something to him?" Jia Xiang asked.

Long Yu shook his head, "We will just observe the situation for now."

"First, we need to collect information about Lu Hong's activities and what he planned with other building managers. When we collect enough information, we can then decide what to

do."

As soon as these words came out, Shi Xuan, Jia Xiang, and Huang Qian all nodded in agreement. They discussed countermeasures for a while, and then Shi Xuan went to Quan Yuanwei to talk about thermal sensors and regenerating electricity matters.

In the afternoon, Shi Xuan came back, and they had another meeting.

Looking at his friends, he said, "Quan Yuanwei said he could modify his old bicycle to generate electricity and made three thermal sensors. However, he wanted twenty kilograms of food in exchange for those items."
