Because the heavy rain kept falling, making it inconvenient to go out to fight zombies and search for supplies, Banxia and the others simply lit a campfire after finishing their meal and prepared to play games around it.
Su Yao stroked his chin and asked everyone, "Want to play Werewolf?"
Nanxing and the others had no objections; they were just killing time anyway, so they could do whatever they wanted.
Banxia raised her hand: "I want to go back to my room and sleep for a while."
Actually, I wanted to go into the space to take stock of the supplies and put away some things that were not suitable to be taken out in front of others, such as fresh fish, shrimp, meat and eggs, so as not to accidentally take them out and arouse suspicion.
Nanxing gripped her hand anxiously: "Are you feeling unwell, wife?"
"No, I didn't sleep well last night because of the loud rain. I wanted to catch up on some sleep," Banxia shook her head reassuringly. "You can have fun without worry."
Nanxing now understood that she was making excuses, and her heart slowly calmed down: "Then call me if you need anything."
Banxia closed the door and slipped into the space.
Four fluffy creatures and two mutated trees were working on the ranch when Xingzi greeted her happily: "Boss, the mutated hen laid fifteen eggs yesterday, and we'll be able to harvest another batch of chicks soon!"
The mutated eggs smelled extremely foul, so they never ate them, but instead used them all to hatch chicks. Chickens laid eggs, eggs hatched into chickens, and in just one year, there were already several hundred chickens in the space.
Banxia condensed a ball of supernatural power and threw it at the base of the apricot tree: "Thank you, apricot tree, you've worked hard."
"It's no trouble at all, thank you, boss!" Xingzi was so happy that the branches trembled. After a few seconds, she asked again, "I heard we lost our home. Where will we go now, boss?"
Banxia shook her head. Apart from the space, nowhere in this world is safe: "Let's wait for the rain to stop in City A first, and then we'll consider where to go."
She personally prefers to find a deserted place to build a house to survive the next wave of extreme cold and heat, and hopes to travel around during the month to fulfill her pre-apocalyptic wishes.
The Month of Hope appears in the third year of the apocalypse. Starting from the third year of the apocalypse, there are three months each year when the climate returns to normal, bringing people a brief hope for survival. Therefore, humans call these three months the Month of Hope.
Xingzi didn't really care where she lived; nowhere was as comfortable as the space anyway. She diligently gave her report: "Yesterday, the mutated sow gave birth to twelve piglets, and the mutated deer started fighting for some reason..."
Banxia took a stroll around the ranch, separated and fed the fighting mutant animals, and then went to check on the Devouring Tree.
"Tian Tian," Banxia tugged at the branch of the Devouring Sky Tree, "you've been asleep for three months, why aren't you awake yet?"
She thought this time would be the same as usual, with the Devouring Tree giving no response, but then a vague consciousness came from the tree.
Banxia focused intently and carefully discerned: "Upgrade... level..."
upgrade? !
Banxia looked at the Devouring Tree in disbelief: "Tiantian, you said we're going to level up again? But didn't we just level up?"
She and Tiantian are already at level five, which puts them at a huge disadvantage compared to others. Is leveling up again meant to make her rule the world?
The Devouring Tree continued to mumble indistinctly, "Sea...sea..."
"What sea?"
Banxia didn't understand what he meant, but she wasn't in a hurry to find out the truth. In any case, upgrading was always a good thing.
It was only then that she realized why she was so sleepy; besides the weather, it was probably because her body lacked energy. This was rather troublesome. Although she had exchanged quite a few crystal cores a few days ago, it was far from enough to meet the energy needed for the upgrade.
With the recent heavy rains, it's not a good time to go out and fight zombies.
The only known place with a large number of ready-made crystal cores is the base, so it seems that even if I don't want to, I have to make time to go there.
After Banxia finished looking at the Devouring Tree, she found a separate area to store the things that were inconvenient to take out of her space recently, and then left the space with a few furry creatures.
Nanxing and the others had stopped playing games and were now gathered around the campfire, roasting and eating.
As soon as Fang Yunyun saw her, she waved and said, "Banxia, come and eat some roasted sweet potatoes!"
Banxia waved her hands frantically in refusal: "Thank you, Sister Yunyun, but I don't like it."
Having eaten too many mutated sweet potatoes in her past life, she never wants to touch sweet potatoes again in this one.
Su Xiao pulled two charred potatoes out of the fire: "Do you want some roasted potatoes?"
"No," Banxia pulled out a handful of chestnuts from her spatial storage. "I'll roast some chestnuts, do you want some?"
Su Yao took a few from her hand: "Thank you!"
Banxia simply stuffed everything in her hand into his hands, and then took out a few more handfuls from her spatial storage and distributed them to Cai Yuan and the others: "Let's eat together."
Jinzi curiously sniffed the sweet potato in her hand, but it had no smell. She immediately lost interest and turned her head away, then moved closer to Nanxing and stared longingly at the sweet potato in his hand, drooling.
Nanxing suddenly felt as if the sweet potato in her hand weighed a ton: "...Gold, you eat it."
He stuffed the sweet potato into Jinzi's mouth, which Jinzi swallowed in a few bites without tasting it. He looked at the fire, then at Nanxing, still wanting more.
Seeing this, Yinzi, Tuanzi, and Heizi also gathered around Nanxing, indicating that they wanted to eat too.
Nanxing resignedly asked Banxia for a basket of sweet potatoes to roast for Uncle Mao and the others.
Nanxing and her pet were enjoying themselves, waiting for Du Heng to return to the base to find someone to pick them up, while the survivors who hadn't left were green with envy.
Humans have nothing to eat, so why are a few animals eating so well?
The women were alright; even though they felt a pang of jealousy, they knew it had nothing to do with them. To put it bluntly, it wasn't their problem whether the food was given to the pets or thrown away.
The men cursed inwardly: Just you wait, you'll get what's coming to you sooner or later...
Banxia and her companions had no idea what the others were thinking, and even if they did, they wouldn't care. Having power does indeed allow one to do whatever they want most of the time.
After roasting the sweet potatoes, the group decided not to eat lunch together to avoid causing any animosity, and then went back to their rooms to rest.
Banxia put the few furry creatures into her spatial storage and let them play by themselves. She then pulled Nanxing to lie down in the tent and told him about the Devouring Sky Tree.
"Tell me, what does the 'sea' you talk about every day mean?"
Nanxing seriously speculated: "Is it possible that space is about to evolve into an ocean?"
Banxia thought it was unlikely: "The sea has never appeared in this space."
She always felt that the space evolved according to her own needs. She wanted to be free from worries about food and clothing, so she created white fish that could be grown and black fish that could keep food fresh. She worried about the water shortage during periods of extreme heat, so she restored the water source.
But she doesn't lack seafood to eat right now, and she doesn't have any special feelings for the ocean, so what's the point of evolving into an ocean creature? It can't be that she's going to raise marine life, can it?
Nanxing patted her hair and comforted her, "If you can't figure it out, don't think about it. Just let nature take its course."
"Mmm," Banxia said, snuggling against him affectionately, "We agreed yesterday to make crispy pork and hot pot for lunch today..."
She had only eaten a few chestnuts, and had given the rest to Jinzi and Yinzi, and was still hungry.
"The flavor is too strong, let's make it at a different place."
