Chapter 351 A Perverted World
Everything went smoothly from then on. The building materials factory was really big, and there was a lot of oxygen-storing materials inside, so much so that even the space-type ability user they brought couldn't fit all of the materials in his space.
After all ten space-type ability users expressed their inability to help, one-third of the building materials in the factory still hadn't been loaded.
Long Wanzhi couldn't help but say, "Forget it, we should have enough oxygen storage materials. We can come back to move these next time."
Cheng Zhen shook his head in refusal, then looked at Jiang Wan and asked, "What do you say?"
Oxygen-storing materials are relatively rare and precious resources in the oxygen-deficient post-apocalyptic world, and it was really not easy for them to come all this way. They didn't want to give up just like that. What if they wanted to use these materials again in the future, but they had already been taken away by someone else?
Take Cheng Wenshan, for example, or the other survivors he had previously hinted at. In this oxygen-deprived apocalypse, it's easy to see the true nature of humanity in the midst of disaster. They've encountered so many disasters and unbelievable things along the way, he couldn't possibly hope that the other survivors would retain their humanity like they did.
Even though it was just a wall away in Zhusha City, he couldn't believe that Zhang Hao would stand firmly on his side, so he wanted to keep all the supplies firmly in his own hands.
In the post-apocalyptic world of Oxygen Not Included, besides having absolute superior combat strength, one must also have sufficient resources.
Jiang Wan nodded: "I'll give it a try."
She and Cheng Zhen shared the same idea: no matter what kind of supplies they were, they could only feel at ease if they had them in their own hands.
As expected, the tree hole space did not disappoint her. Jiang Wan gradually collected the remaining 1/3 of the materials from the building materials factory into the space.
In addition, they also found a small warehouse belonging to the factory, which contained a lot of food supplies, work clothes, and some professional tools.
Cheng Zhen went in and checked. Apart from some fresh ingredients that had long expired and spoiled, he sorted out the other items such as water, drinks, milk, instant noodles, bread, and biscuits. Then Jiang Wan put them all into her space, including the professional tools.
Then they prepared to rush back overnight. On this trip, in order to avoid the attacks of mutated plants in the wild, they took a long detour and specifically chose to drive on some very wide roads. All of their convoys drove in the middle of the road, one after another.
Even so, mutated plants would occasionally peek out from both sides of the road, trying to block the way, but Cheng Zhen's evolutionary ability kept them at bay.
As they approached Longxiang City, Cheng Zhen suddenly decided to check on the progress of the team that was developing the mountain road.
He instructed Long Wanzhi: "Take them back first, and build the houses according to the plans we discussed before."
Jiang Wan followed Cheng Zhen. She had heard Jiang Xiaoxin say that the rivers in the wild had become crystal clear and that all the mutated zombie fish had disappeared. She was very curious about what the rivers in the wild looked like now.
Their progress is also very fast. The mountain road has been cleared and is ten meters wide. One person and one vehicle can walk in the middle, and it is difficult for the mutated plants on both sides to attack them.
Their team is fetching water and transporting it into Longxiang City. It's not yet known whether the water is drinkable, but it should be fine for irrigating the soil.
Cheng Zhen and the others also joined the water-fetching team.
Jiang Wan stood by the river with the twins, observing carefully, and saw that there were indeed some swimming creatures in the water that looked like fish.
So these are the fish creatures of the New World?
Jiang Xiaoxin asked curiously, "Are these fish edible?"
It was just a child's curious question, and Jiang Wan didn't know how to answer it. When she turned around, she saw Yu Fen and the others looking at her with the same puzzled and eager expressions.
So they were also wondering if these fish in the river were safe to eat.
After all, creatures like Little Mobo and Little Mobi, which only appeared after the oxygen-deprived apocalypse, have very delicious flesh, and it wouldn't cause any harm for humans to eat them.
And then there are the creatures from the Classic of Mountains and Seas that suddenly appeared. Apart from Qin Yuan, which is highly poisonous, it seems that the other types can also be eaten, right?
Jiang Wan considered it for a moment, then asked Cheng Zhen, "Why don't you go down and get a few more, and we can try them out tonight?"
Cheng Zhen did not answer immediately, but in the blink of an eye he saw all his subordinates staring at him expectantly, their eyes full of longing, and he could even hear some of them swallowing their saliva uncontrollably.
Cheng Zhen chuckled and pointed to one or two water-type ability users: "Go and get a few fish."
These fish are all very large, and there are unknown dangers in the water, so no one dares to go in. They can only let water-powered people get the fish out of the water, which is very simple for them. They just need to manipulate the water to push the fish out.
They didn't make many, only four or five.
But these fish were all very large, each weighing more than 20 kilograms, which surprised everyone.
"What the hell kind of world is this? I'm starting to wonder if I've been transported to another world!"
Yu Fen couldn't help but complain.
Cheng Zhen glanced at him: "What's the difference between us now and being in another world? Before the oxygen-deficient apocalypse, did you ever think that we humans would have an oxygen crisis?"
In an oxygen-deficient post-apocalyptic world, have you ever imagined that while we're fleeing, we might encounter creatures that don't need to breathe oxygen, and could even produce oxygen for us?
Have you ever wondered if we might actually see some of those strange, fantastical creatures that only exist in books in real life?
None.
So, without a doubt, this world has truly become abnormal.
These minor incidents didn't cause any disturbance for anyone; in fact, everyone happily returned to town with their catch of fish.
On the way, one or two wild creatures suddenly darted out of the woods, and Cheng Zhen and his group caught them without hesitation.
As long as it's edible, it's meat to them now.
This trip out of the city to the wilderness was very fruitful, and their supplies were further replenished.
Of course, there are many potential dangers. For example, Cheng Wenshan, who has been reborn somewhere, is still coveting their military factory.
For example, there's Dragon City, where you never know when they'll issue another bizarre mission, and zombies that occasionally come attracted by the smell of fresh human flesh and blood.
But for now, at least everyone is happy.
They built new houses and happily ate meat, proving that the unknown species of fish in the wild rivers were indeed edible.
Although the meat was a bit gamey, it was delicious if handled properly. From then on, when people went out of the city, they not only killed off mutated plants, but also hunted creatures to supplement their meat supplies.
