Chapter 202: The representative of the Doomsday Fortress negotiates with Chief of Staff Xiao.
"Really? What's that feeling like?"
Lin Muyan was very curious about what kind of feeling she would have when she was about to awaken.
She had asked her father, but he only knew that he had a fever and felt very uncomfortable. After that, he felt delirious from the fever and did not feel anything special.
Lin Muyan was also very curious about what Fu Sinian's superpower was. The comments on the screen were usually full of all sorts of things, but when it came to Fu Sinian's superpower, they all tacitly kept quiet.
Fu Sinian nodded vigorously, looking at Lin Muyan with anticipation.
He did have a feeling, but it seemed he was always just one step away, unable to capture that crucial moment.
Lin Muyan is an Awakened One; perhaps she can help him.
Of course, being able to stay at Lin Muyan's house would also satisfy his selfish desires.
Now that Xiao Li has appeared, his sense of crisis has suddenly intensified.
Lin Muyan did not immediately agree to Fu Sinian's request, and the rest of the Lin family listened to her, so they were all waiting for her answer.
Although Xiao Li didn't show it on his face, his hands were already unconsciously clenched tightly, his heart filled with anxiety and disappointment.
He had not yet sensed any signs of awakening his superpowers, while Fu Sinian was already on the path to awakening them.
Looking at Lin Muyan's family members, Lin's father seems to be a superhuman. Although he looks simple and doesn't have much of an aura, he gives off a feeling that he could kill him in an instant.
Lin Muyan's older brother and mother also gave him the feeling that they were not ordinary people.
Looking at himself, aside from the silver wind that Lin Muyan gave him, he had made no progress whatsoever.
If everyone were just ordinary people, it wouldn't be so bad, but now the entire population is awakening, with a one in a thousand chance of gaining superpowers.
If he doesn't have that luck and can only continue to be an ordinary person, then he probably won't have the power to intimidate those privates in the future, and will have to give up his position as colonel.
The post-apocalyptic world of the future will belong to the awakened.
"Okay, then you can stay here for now and stay in the guest room."
Suddenly, Lin Muyan spoke up and agreed to let Fu Sinian stay temporarily.
Fu Ssu-nien immediately grinned, a slight smile on his face, but inwardly he was laughing out loud.
No one knows how excited he was at that moment; he had finally infiltrated the inside!
While he's waiting for his powers to awaken, living under the same roof as Lin Muyan will definitely spark some romance!
Look at how worthless he looks, he can't even suppress his smirk.
[He's not just unable to control himself, I bet he's secretly thrilled. It's obvious the Lin family likes him a lot. This guy looks a bit roguish, how come he's so popular?]
[Stop talking. Xiao Li is almost broken. He looks like he's watching other families living happily together while he's all alone, feeling incredibly lonely.]
[He's not bad off either. He has a grandfather who's the head of Special Zone S, and a wind-type mutated wolf. Even if he doesn't awaken his powers in the end, he won't live a bad life.]
Lin Muyan has already accepted him as a friend, and he will definitely have a spot when the Doomsday Fortress opens.
**
Fu Sinian smiled and chased Xiao Li out of the safe house, looking at him smugly.
Xiao Li had deep-set eyes and could naturally sense Fu Sinian's hostility towards him.
Lin Muyan rolled her eyes at Fu Sinian, said goodbye to Xiao Li, and went inside to help her mother tidy up the kitchen.
The two men were still talking at the door.
"Young Master Fu, some strange things have appeared on the sea surface at the port. Do you know what they are?"
Fu Ssu-nien remained calm and shrugged.
"I know, but I'm not telling you."
Xiao Li glanced at Fu Sinian with deep eyes and then turned and left.
In the evening, Fu Ssu-nien was summoned for a talk by the military.
The reason, of course, was about the situation at that dock; Xiao Huaifeng knew it was the Fu family's private dock.
These days, very few docks are privately owned. And since that dock was located in a remote area, there shouldn't be many places to go after the apocalypse.
But now, an unidentified object has appeared on the near-shore waters of that port.
Fu Ssu-nien was taken into the government office building.
In a closed conference room with a long table, a number of serious-looking officers were already seated.
Xiao Huaifeng sat at the front and nodded to his grandson as he led Fu Sinian in.
Fu Ssu-nien was not intimidated at all, as if he had already guessed that such a scene would occur.
Among all the officers, Xiao Li could only be ranked last.
Fu Sinian, however, remained calm and found a seat. He then went straight to the point with Xiao Huaifeng, who sat at the head of the table:
"Chief Xiao, I've already heard Xiao Li explain the whole story on the way here, so let me get straight to the point."
"A doomsday fortress is being built on that sea. What your people saw at first was probably the construction team's fence or something similar. The fog is also to prevent outsiders from spying on them."
As soon as Fu Ssu-nien finished speaking, the entire conference room erupted in an uproar.
Everyone was shocked. They hadn't expected Fu Sinian to be so direct. They thought he would try to subtly hint at it or use words of intimidation, but he went straight to the point.
Secondly, they were naturally shocked by what he said.
"Apocalypse Fortress? What kind of apocalypse fortress? How do you know? Could this be the work of your Fu family?"
"That's not right. As far as I know, no private company can master the technology for building structures at sea. I have some impression of the Fu family in S City. Real estate is not a very prominent business for the Fu family."
Everyone's curiosity was piqued, and their eyes were fixed on Fu Sinian.
Xiao Huaifeng was more composed, but even though he wasn't as surprised as the others, he was still momentarily shocked.
The plan to build doomsday fortresses was actually a secret operation planned by the higher-ups. They were to concentrate resources in several important cities to secretly construct doomsday fortresses to accommodate more people and ensure the survival rate of the population.
But how easy is it to build a doomsday fortress with a strong defense system that can also guarantee the basic livelihood of the people?
Leaving aside the defense system and how to withstand those ferocious mutated beasts, let's just talk about the recent discoveries by environmental experts regarding mutated plants releasing toxic substances, changes in soil quality making it unsuitable for planting, changes in water quality, and a sharp decline in drinking water...
These unknowns are still in their early stages, and taking all these factors into account will undoubtedly make the construction of the doomsday fortress extremely difficult.
But Fu Ssu-nien said that the doomsday fortress at sea was already under construction.
Xiao Huaifeng stared intently at Fu Sinian, unable to tell whether the other man was joking or if it was true.
But before that, they had done some research on Young Master Fu and decided not to believe everything he said.
After thinking for a moment, Xiao Huaifeng dismissed the others and took Fu Sinian to his office alone.
Xiao Li also listened in. Xiao Huaifeng was thinking about how to get information out of him to find out if the matter was true or false when Fu Sinian dropped another bombshell.
"Chief Xiao, I'm here on behalf of my boss to negotiate with you. Since it's just the two of us, let's get straight to the point. Our boss is the owner of this Doomsday Fortress. She means she can offer occupancy slots for the fortress to the outside world, and those of you who are the backbone of the fight against the mutants will naturally also receive corresponding slots, but on the condition that..."
