Chapter 152 Distributing Supplies
Having just awakened her water-based superpower, Lin Muyan naturally wanted to study it on her own and familiarize herself with it.
She spent a few days figuring out some of her thoughts.
Like fire, water has both practical uses in daily life and applications in combat; the key is for her to master the techniques and power herself.
Fire can start a fire, and water can create water from nothing, directly solving the water source problem!
Lin Muyan had already tested it, and the water produced and sold by herself tasted sweeter than tap water, and was extremely similar to the spring water in the blue space.
However, with her current water-based abilities, the amount of water she can release is extremely limited. If she tries to force water to be produced, her body will begin to dehydrate. Overuse of this ability could endanger her life.
Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, Lin Muyan does not plan to use her water-based abilities for domestic water use, but only for combat.
Once her strength improves, she might not need to pay attention to these details anymore.
Having already researched fire-based abilities, Lin Muyan was much more adept at using water-based abilities to create skills.
She thought for a moment, then imagined the water as an arrow in her mind, condensed the water into a water arrow, and used the explosive force to shoot it out.
Although not as powerful as a fireball, water arrows seem to easily penetrate human skin; at least on the moving targets in the shooting range, she hits them every time.
Furthermore, Lin Muyan discovered that the places pierced by the water arrows would not leave any traces, and would disappear without a trace as the water evaporated slightly, making it very suitable for assassination.
Besides water arrows, Lin Muyan has also developed many other water-based abilities, but her level is still at the lowest level, stage one. Even with a variety of skills, they are still somewhat impractical.
Lin Muyan is now eager to obtain a large number of crystal cores, but the mutation has not yet broken out on a large scale, and the probability of digging out crystal cores with the golden shovel is not high.
Unfortunately, we have to postpone improving our strength.
After mastering water-based superpowers, Lin Muyan stopped training herself intensely and planned to relax for a few days.
Another round of high temperatures has begun outside, and the scorching heat has already turned the icy and snowy weather into a furnace.
The water that had been painstakingly accumulated on the surface evaporated completely once again.
Fortunately, the government's first batch of emergency supplies began to be distributed, and the hillside villas were fortunate enough to be among the first areas to receive the supplies.
Early that morning, the loudspeakers outside began broadcasting repeatedly, instructing each household to send a representative to collect supplies.
After discussing it, the Lin family members also decided to queue up to receive supplies.
Firstly, if we reduce their share, the extra supplies will be a drop in the bucket and won't save many people.
Secondly, if the Lin family doesn't step in, everyone will assume they have no shortage of supplies.
It's one thing if the people living in the hillside villas know, but if the government finds out, things might change.
After careful consideration, Lin's parents decided to send Lin Xiao out.
Lin Muyan thought for a moment but didn't express her opinion. To be honest, her family still doesn't know that she has a mobile treasure trove, which contains everything imaginable. The Lin family's resources are far more than they can use.
All Lin's parents knew was that they had a lot of supplies at home, all stored in the basement storage room.
But there is a limit; it's not inexhaustible, and it will eventually run out.
Just before Lin Xiao was about to leave, Lin Muyan called him back.
Lin Xiao thought his sister had something to say, so he walked up to Lin Muyan with a smile.
Lin Muyan took out a vial of medicine from her spatial storage and handed it to Lin Xiao.
Looking at the thing that appeared out of thin air, Lin Xiao showed no surprise. He already knew that all awakened beings would simultaneously obtain a personal space.
Lin Muyan doesn't need to hide anything, as long as the four-color space isn't exposed.
She placed the medicine in Lin Xiao's hand and said:
"Brother, this is the body enhancer I drank before. Drink it first before you go line up to get supplies. This stuff works immediately after you drink it."
Lin Xiao's eyes flickered slightly as he stared intently at Lin Muyan.
He knew how precious this vial of medicine was; if the outside world knew of its existence, even the government might ask his sister for it.
But his sister gave him such a precious thing.
Lin Xiao didn't act coy. Instead, he tilted his head back and drank the body enhancement drug in front of Lin Muyan, looking at her with a firm gaze.
"Little sister, thank you for thinking of me first when you have something good. I will definitely live up to your expectations and make good use of it."
Lin Xiao turned and went out the door. As he walked, he felt a change in his body. Not only were his steps lighter, but he also felt a surge of energy within him.
He has been diligently working out to build muscle and has developed some muscle mass. He can now make a heavy punching bag sway back and forth when he hits it.
But now, he feels like he could punch right through a sandbag.
Lin Muyan had already arrived at the monitoring room, intending to remotely control a greenbottle fly to watch the excitement.
Two supply distribution points were set up at the hillside villa, the closest of which was only about a ten-minute walk from the Lin family's residence.
Under the scorching sun, the streets were filled with people struggling to keep up with the high temperatures, all holding umbrellas as they made their way forward.
A few individuals got smarter and consciously stocked up on commercial ice at home during the extremely cold weather a few days ago.
Those ice cubes are more resistant to melting than ice made in a refrigerator. Wrapping them in a towel and stuffing them into your clothes can cool you down considerably.
Lin Xiao went out wearing the protective suit given to him by Lin Muyan. It was a protective suit inside and a sun protection suit outside. It was not visible from the outside. Only his head was not protected and felt hot, but his body was cool and he could withstand it completely.
By this time, the distribution point had been surrounded by a lot of people. Everyone automatically kept a certain distance from each other, because getting too close would not only cause an explosion of heat, but also allow you to smell a sour odor.
Many people have been sweating too much these past few days without showering, and they're practically marinated.
Shen Jiaojiao stood in the crowd, her gaze frequently drifting towards the place where the supplies were piled up, her eyes burning with desire.
She's had a tough time these past few days.
Although she had dealt with Wang Qiang, once she got home, she and her parents took control of Wang Qiang's mother and made her work as a nanny.
As for those two old geezers, even Wang Qiang's mother didn't care about them anymore, leaving them to fend for themselves.
As long as they don't rot at home, let them be.
However, ever since her parents found out about her spatial abilities, their attitudes towards her have become polarized.
Shen Shiqiu harbored resentment because Shen Jiaojiao had kept such a big secret from him, and because she had previously gone to the Rong family to "enjoy life" while leaving the two of them to suffer in the Shen family.
This time, Shen Jiaojiao recommended herself to that officer and was invited to join the army, but she didn't think about taking them with her, which made Shen Shiqiu even more dissatisfied.
However, Mrs. Shen treated Shen Jiaojiao very well, even praising her daughter's abilities repeatedly.
Her daughter has the ability to awaken superpowers that others cannot.
Moreover, they can cooperate with the military, which will surely lead to a bright future, and their parents will also benefit.
Mrs. Shen felt excited at the thought that she might go from being a wealthy housewife to a military wife, which would be very prestigious. She had been urging Shen Jiaojiao to contact that officer for the past few days.
But Shen Jiaojiao was also in a dilemma. The colonel hadn't left her any contact information, and she was very anxious.
She wanted to enlist earlier so she could enjoy superior treatment sooner!
