Jian Ning gave him a coquettish glare, pretending to be innocent after getting the benefit.
"Are you hungry? Let's get something to eat. I won't take you to the cafeteria; there's really nothing good to eat here."
After hearing what Xiao Lingfeng said, Jian Ning realized it was time for lunch. She took out a bunch of delicious food from her spatial storage; she needed to help Xiao Lingfeng regain the weight he had gained.
Looking at the table full of meat and vegetables, Xiao Lingfeng smiled.
"My wife is still the best to me. I haven't eaten meat for more than half a year."
"Then eat more. Here, this big pork knuckle is all for you. I also refined quite a few fasting pills myself, so you can have some too."
"You can give each soldier a few grains later. In this critical moment, when there's nothing else to eat, they can maintain basic energy levels and could be life-saving."
"Wife, you are so good to me!" Xiao Lingfeng put down his chopsticks and put the dozens of bottles of fasting pills that Jian Ning had taken out into his space.
"If Fu Mengfan sees this, he'll definitely want to investigate its ingredients. We'll have to come up with different explanations, otherwise it'll be hard to explain to him."
"Just say it was from me and you don't know how it was made. This thing isn't difficult to make, but it would probably take a lot of effort for an ordinary person to make it. Besides, he can't find all the materials."
Jian Ning wasn't being secretive; it's just that without spiritual power, spiritual awareness, and the necessary alchemical fire, it's truly impossible to refine pills unless he can devise a substitute method, which is probably not easy to achieve.
"Stop studying this, eat quickly, don't let it get cold. This fish is very flavorful, eat more to nourish your body." Jian Ning picked up a large piece of fish and put it in Xiao Lingfeng's bowl.
He looked up and smiled, then began to eat heartily. The taste was simply divine; it was all delicious.
After finishing their meal, the two discussed it and decided to go out and explore. Last time they went to the island nation, so this time they planned to go in a different direction.
Let's go check out Russia. It used to be cold there year-round, but we don't know what the situation is like now.
Having decided on the direction, they set off directly in the afternoon. First, they flew out of the area on their swords, and once they reached the edge of the city, Jian Ning took out the helicopter. Xiao Lingfeng piloted it, flying straight north.
Because of the long distance and the small size of the plane, the flight took nearly 10 hours, with a short break in between.
The further north you go, the colder the air gets. Jian Ning took out a thermometer, and it cracked instantly upon contact with the outside air. The temperature here must be close to minus seventy or eighty degrees Celsius.
Looking down from the plane, it truly was a scene of thousands of miles of frozen land and endless snow.
Everywhere was covered in snow. Fortunately, neither of them was afraid of the cold, and their spiritual energy shields protected their bodies. When Jian Ning got off the plane, she subconsciously shivered.
"Are you cold? Wear more clothes?" Xiao Lingfeng asked with concern.
"It's nothing, I just feel cold inside. What's wrong here? Is it always freezing? It's so cold, I doubt there's anyone alive left."
Jian Ning looked at the city before her, utterly desolate. Snow covered everything, even the rooftops of the houses were barely visible. There was no trace of human footsteps on the streets.
"Let's go in and take a look. Is that a residential building?" Xiao Lingfeng pointed to the tallest building in front of him.
"Okay." Jian Ning pulled Xiao Lingfeng along without using their swords, and flew over using their light footwork. They didn't know how deep the snow was below, so it was best not to step on it.
The residential building was covered in ice and snow. Thick icicles clung to the windows and stairwells. Perhaps the ice and snow here had briefly melted during the summer, only to freeze again.
The two walked to the third floor, and Xiao Lingfeng kicked open the door of a room, causing the surrounding snow to fall in a loud crash.
After taking two steps inside, I saw a man with a full beard frozen into an ice sculpture, assuming a running posture with his hands outstretched, his face filled with terror and despair.
Behind him was a young woman with golden hair that had turned white.
She reached out and tightly gripped the man's arm in front of her.
It seemed that when the freezing weather arrived, they tried to run out of the house but were instantly frozen solid. Jian Ning couldn't quite grasp how cold it was.
"Judging from this situation, there is no one left alive in the entire city."
They must have been dead for at least two years. But this place seems unaffected by the flood; the items aren't badly damaged. Let's go to a shopping mall and see if they have any usable supplies.
I'm sorry to bother you!
Xiao Lingfeng sincerely apologized to the two ice sculptures inside the house. When he left, he put the door he had kicked down back on before pulling Jian Ning out of the residential building.
Judging from his expression, he must be feeling terrible. Regardless of their nationality, everyone is a living, breathing human being.
"The shopping malls are all located in the city center. Let's walk a little further in."
There might be survivors there. The surface temperature might be very low, but there might be people surviving underground. You know, it's cold here all year round.
"It's impossible to be completely unprepared for extreme cold weather," Jian Ning said softly, holding Xiao Lingfeng's hand.
"Yes, let's take another look. In the face of natural disasters, the power of humankind is truly insignificant." Xiao Lingfeng felt a deep sense of powerlessness in the face of this.
"There is always hope. A single spark can start a prairie fire. As long as we are here, humanity will continue to thrive in this world. I assure you."
Jian Ning held Xiao Lingfeng's hand, and the two flew forward for a while until they saw a particularly magnificent building with a huge plaque on it bearing letters.
Although I don't understand Russian, this must be a shopping mall, because the square in front is very large and there are giant sculptures. It's clearly a commercial street.
They couldn't find the main entrance at all. So they simply broke open a window on the roof and entered the building.
The architecture here is vastly different from that in China. Huge arched glass curtain walls serve as roofs. Both sides are lined with cafes and restaurants, as well as various high-end clothing brand stores.
However, the place was deserted, and it was unclear whether this was due to the evacuation of people or because the disaster occurred at night.
However, it's better without ice sculptures; at least it won't cause psychological discomfort. Jian Ning couldn't wait to plunder each shop one by one. Whatever it was, she collected it all into her immortal abode.
The space there is huge; it could probably hold all the supplies for Russia. The clothes here are all about warmth and style. The food is high in calories. You can't overlook any of these things.
Xiao Lingfeng's focus was different; he mainly looked for women's clothing and baby products, preparing for the children after marriage.
