The moving work went on all night.
The convoy of vehicles from various city shelters did not gradually disperse until the morning of the following day.
On this very day, survivors in various shelters discovered an official notice on the bulletin board.
The first point of the announcement was quite provocative: the daily supply of marine mammal meat has been reduced by 35%.
Upon seeing this news, the survivors who were watching almost immediately began to complain.
The amount of sea monster meat allocated now is too little; it's simply not enough to fill our stomachs.
They're going to lower the price again?!
Of course, these were just unavoidable complaints, not a lot of dissatisfaction.
Those who survived have experienced the hellish heat that followed the thawing.
Knowing that surviving is already a difficult thing, I certainly won't ask for too much now.
But when they patiently read the second part of the announcement...
They looked at each other in disbelief, as if they had discovered something incredible.
Article 2: Each person shall be provided with two bowls of cabbage and rice porridge per day.
In an instant, a cacophony louder than the complaints resounded throughout the various shelters.
However, this time the noise was mainly exclamations.
Those are rice and cabbages! How come the government still has these things?
Everyone was initially skeptical.
It is speculated that the so-called "cabbage and rice porridge" is probably just a large bowl of water with a few grains of rice mixed in.
At lunchtime, everyone stared at the bowl of thick rice porridge in their hands and fell into deep thought.
There was meat, vegetables, and rice.
They couldn't even remember the last time they had enjoyed such treatment.
Everyone was filled with excitement, and some even burst into tears while holding their bowls.
They all expressed their gratitude to the unknown deity for protecting them.
Many people are reluctant to finish the white rice porridge at once, but instead sip it slowly, chewing and savoring the long-lost fragrance.
They only slapped their thighs in frustration when the rice porridge in the bowl froze into a lump of ice at low temperatures.
He quickly took a bowl of iced porridge home and heated it up again.
Such situations were so numerous that they caused a sudden surge in electricity consumption at various shelters.
Several shelter transformers even overloaded, emitting a burst of blinding sparks before being completely destroyed.
The authorities were so alarmed that they quickly issued a statement telling everyone not to play like that.
The sudden appearance of rice and vegetables sparked a flurry of strange speculations.
Some say that the ground has thawed in some areas further south, making it possible to plant crops.
Some say the authorities have successfully implemented large-scale hydroponics in extremely cold temperatures.
In short: the best is yet to come.
With a strong desire for the world to return to normal, everyone subconsciously tries to guess the best.
However, opposing speculations also exist.
Some even suspect that the government is about to collapse and is using up its last reserves just to give everyone a few last meals.
From then on, everyone should pray for their own good fortune, for life and death are predestined.
But soon, news spread that the grain had been discovered unexpectedly in Fenghai City.
All speculation and rumors have been disproven.
The lower the expectations, the greater the surprise; the higher the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Those who guessed that "the best days are yet to come" felt as if they had been doused with a bucket of cold water.
Those who speculated about the last meal before execution were not disappointed; instead, they were relieved that they could continue to live.
Regardless of what happens in the future, the changes brought about by everyone eating cabbage porridge are immediate.
When blood sugar levels rise, I have more energy to work.
Even going to the toilet, which used to be incredibly difficult, became easy and pleasant.
Public toilets in various areas were suddenly overflowing, with the number of people queuing even exceeding that during the previous large-scale constipation.
Cries of pure bliss echoed throughout the shelter.
However, too many people go to the toilet at the same time.
Even with the exhaust system running at full capacity, the odor still wafts out.
Moreover, it was freezing cold outside, so people didn't dare to open the windows for ventilation.
Eating fragrant rice porridge in such a foul-smelling environment made me deeply understand the meaning of "pain and pleasure go hand in hand".
Everyone else experienced both pain and pleasure, but Liu Kai only felt pleasure and no pain.
When lunchtime arrived, he suddenly felt many strange voices appearing in his head.
These sounds gathered together and gradually became noisy and chaotic.
They were all talking at once, so it was impossible to understand what they were saying.
Yet, one could also clearly sense gratitude, relief, and prayer...
Liu Kai knew that the time he had been waiting for, the time of faith power, had finally arrived!
These sounds were just too noisy and really annoying.
Fortunately, with a thought from Liu Kai, these sounds were automatically blocked.
Unless he releases the shield, not a sound can be heard.
As the sound appeared, wisps of inexplicable energy surged into his body.
These fine energy strands gathered together and gradually transformed into a golden stream.
The golden energy flowed in and traveled throughout my body, making me feel as comfortable as the warm sun in winter.
Ultimately, this golden energy, as always, returned to the storage space and dissipated without a trace.
At this moment, Liu Kai could clearly feel that his physical and spatial abilities were once again entering a slow enhancement state.
At the same time, it was also discovered that the enhancing effect of these golden energies was weakening very slowly.
It seems that the energy of "faith" also experiences a decay in effectiveness, just like other things.
Moreover, its strengthening efficiency is far inferior to that of directly absorbing life force.
Of course, this energy also has a unique advantage: it lasts for a very long time, 24 hours a day without stopping.
