Reborn Before the Apocalypse: Hoarding Billions of Resources

A super-widespread meteor shower descended upon Blue Star, reshuffling existing scientific laws. Various monsters arrived on Earth with the black rain, alongside the unknown black domains formed af...

Chapter 24 Buy some helpers

This time, everyone panicked even faster than in the previous life, perhaps because Gu Mingyue gave a premonition in her live stream.

Most shopping malls ceased operations, and pharmacies locked their doors. Some people angrily swung hammers at the doors and walls.

The lovely people are struggling to maintain the order that is about to collapse.

Gu Mingyue felt a pang of sadness as she watched the constant ambushes and pursuits on the road, but it quickly dissipated.

It seems there aren't many supplies available nearby, but she can use her space shuttle to buy some flooded disaster areas for free. These remaining supplies can be left for those who need them more.

Gu Mingyue did not set off immediately.

Nowadays, various food and medicine products are very popular, but in some places, no one visits them.

She first stored all the supplies in the car into her spatial storage, and then went to the pet and bird market.

After the apocalypse, in addition to humans differentiating into monsters and superhumans, plants and animals will also evolve.

Giantness is the least advanced stage of evolution; some animals even possess amazing superpowers similar to those of humans.

Ordinary people or ordinary superhumans would not want to raise these strange beasts.

In her previous life, after Gu Mingyue lost her sight, she survived until the extinction of humanity by controlling these low-intelligence beasts.

And what if she really manages to fix the space's time to 24 hours and never comes out?

Xinghe is such a wooden person, even if you look at his handsome face every day, you'd probably be bored to death.

This flower and bird market is very large. A few people were sitting on small stools, guarding the pets, not participating in the heated buying frenzy outside.

Gu Mingyue bought some chrysanthemums and hydrangeas.

Strolling around at a leisurely pace.

I only stopped when I saw a stall selling small pets.

She mainly chooses clean, easy-to-care-for, and quiet animals to buy.

Golden hamsters can usually be bought for a dozen or so yuan.

Its value has skyrocketed, and it's now selling for several hundred.

"Four hundred!" Gu Mingyue bargained.

The man's eyes darted around, and he nodded in agreement.

“Ten!” Gu Mingyue added casually.

"Hey, no, no, now a pound of cabbage costs fifty yuan."

"That's a huge loss! This is a small business!"

"Then I'm leaving." Gu Mingyue shrugged indifferently.

In a few days, mutant rats will appear in every corner of the world, and she can catch them in large quantities; they are not in short supply.

She only slightly disliked that they were a bit ugly and dirty.

Black fog is appearing all over the world, and doomsday prophecies are flying everywhere. Not many people have visited this place all day.

The woman in front of me was clearly a wealthy person who had stockpiled enough supplies.

Considering the sky-high grain prices, he gave in.

"Two more gray Totoro and two more hedgehogs."

"And that turtle, 2000."

"No, this really won't do." He deliberately lowered his voice as if afraid of being overheard.

"This is a Sulcata tortoise, which can weigh up to 200 pounds when it grows to adulthood!"

"And if you raise it well, it can even give you away. I wouldn't dare sell it when the regulations are strict. It would cost at least 100,000."

"Hmph." Gu Mingyue let out a disdainful snort, though in reality she was very eager to buy it.

After the apocalypse, turtle shells will become harder than steel, and exposed skin will become as hard as rock.

They also have extremely strong bite force, long lifespan, low mental strength, are easy to control and raise, have good attack power and extremely strong defense.

The outer edge of the Black Domain is almost invincible, except that they are lazy and extremely lazy; they won't work unless you urge them!

However, if they evolve superpowers, they will have no problem entering and leaving the Dark Domain on their own.

Perhaps she died in the Dark Domain, but the turtle beast with superpowers is still alive!

"Ten thousand? I don't have much money left." Gu Mingyue pretended not to care.

"And this turtle is quite ugly, and it has to eat a lot of things."

"Okay, deal, but you have to treat it well!" the man agreed with a pained expression.

That turtle was the size of two palms, and I heard it had been raised for ten years.

Gu Mingyue bought a large basket and put it in.

As she walked, she saw a vendor selling puppies stop.

That was a Czech wolfhound.

It had only been a month since birth and could barely stand, but its eyes were sharp and it had a wolf-like nature.

Intrigued, Gu Mingyue stopped and asked, "How much does this puppy cost?"

"Haha, just give me whatever you think is fair," the man said with a simple, honest smile.

"But it depends on whether it's with you or not. If it is, I'd give it to you for free."

Yoho!

Upon hearing that it was being given away for free, Gu Mingyue squatted down to get up close and personal with the puppy.

She reached out her hand, but the little dog didn't even look at her, turning its head to the side as if it disdained her.

"It seems that won't work. If a dog doesn't recognize its owner, no matter how many good things you give it, it won't follow you. But if it recognizes you, it will stick with you and only recognize you. If you tell it to go east, it won't dare to go west."

Gu Mingyue also felt it was a pity. If she had superpowers now, she wouldn't care about recognition or anything like that. She would just force the issue and accept it even if it wasn't sweet.

As she looked into the eyes of the little Czech wolfhound, the puppy didn't back down and stared back at her.

The two men stared at each other without blinking, like two wolves vying for dominance.

Gu Mingyue is a ruthless person; she can keep her eyes open for more than twenty minutes without blinking.

The puppy struggled to stay awake, but managed to blink first.

It let out a weak whimper, then took its little steps to Gu Mingyue's side and gently rubbed its fluffy head against her palm.

"Wow, that's amazing. Of all the puppies in the litter, this one is the most stubborn. It even bites me when I touch it, but it actually lets you touch it."

The man kept his promise and gave the puppy to Gu Mingyue.

The dog that bit the man couldn't be sold anyway, so the man didn't feel he had suffered much of a loss.

Then I bought a small, non-venomous green snake, which I use as a small bracelet when I'm not busy, and as a hidden weapon when I need to.

After the black rain, everything becomes highly poisonous, regardless of whether it was poisonous or not!

After buying another truckload of feed.

Gu Mingyue left with ten golden hamsters, two chinchillas, two hedgehogs, a turtle, a snake, and a puppy.

It was getting dark by then.

There is no moon tonight, and the dark area almost blends into the night.

Through the car window, Gu Mingyue saw that the Black Domain was surrounded by soldiers who guarded the edge of the black mist, preventing anyone from getting close.

At this moment, monsters beyond human comprehension are being frantically bred in the Dark Domain.

Outside the black zone, people continued to hold up signs and shout.

An elderly man pounded on the soldier's chest, wanting to go inside to see his children and grandchildren.

Young children tugged at their aunts and uncles, saying in their sweet, childish voices that they wanted to go home and find their mothers and fathers.

There are husbands and wives who, for various reasons, did not return home on time.

In one particular spot, the people were so enraged that they broke through the soldiers' fence.

Several soldiers were also innocently implicated and taken in along with the others.

A terrified scream came from inside.

The humans from beyond the realm were further agitated by the cries, and the soldiers' efforts to maintain discipline could not stop their desire to die.
