Chapter 696: Unless It’s Headed Toward Me! Part 1

“This is a building from the Eastern Province of an era of human civilization.”

Seeing the shelter leader’s predicted expression on Feng Mengyue’s face, the soldier that remained silent secretly observed her behavior and walked forward confidently.

He pointed to the three-story building bathed in the sun’s rays and began introducing it.

“We found this small building when we stopped for a break.

“Initially, we thought that it was a trap set by some ghost or monster in the wild and were cautious of it. However, as you should already know, our shelter leader is someone who dared to go against a massive god that could cover the whole sky. Even if it was a ghost, it’d be walking to its own death.

“With a loud bang, we blew the door apart, but who would’ve thought that there was a monster hidden within the building? It charged at us, and we had no choice but to take it down. Ultimately, the small building was our spoils for defeating the monster!”

Upon uttering the words “our spoils,” the soldier puffed up his chest and subconsciously emphasized it.

Unexpectedly, Feng Mengyue, who stood beside him, could not hear a word he was saying and simply nodded stiffly, occasionally replying to him with “ah.”

It was not hard to see that her thoughts were occupied as soon as she saw the materials piled up like a hill in front of the small building. The question of where they came from was no longer relevant to her.

‘What a f*cking realistic reaction!’

The soldier secretly sneered in his heart but continued introducing the spoils’ types and quantities fluently.

They had limited storage space and had already taken away the electrical appliances. The soldiers had also consumed and used some of the materials previously, but there was still about 95% of the materials left behind.

From the introduction of basic fast food products to various snacks, candies, beverages, and convenience foods…

Then, moving on to the ordinary daily necessities, towels, toothpaste, toothbrushes, shampoo, body lotion, pots,pans, and all kinds of seasonings.

The soldier recited the items from the checklist very enthusiastically while Feng Mengyue listened, full of excitement!

Meanwhile, the Mountain Moon villagers had finally reached the high slope and saw the supplies. Immediately, all of them had very realistic reactions upon seeing the piles.

Their noisy chatter had disappeared because the tense atmosphere had begun to return, tens to a hundred times louder than before.

Everyone’s eyes were stuck on the pile of supplies, and it was hard to determine what was going on in their minds.

However, upon closer observation, their bodies trembled as if they were about to charge into the pile of supplies and snatch the goods if not for Feng Mengyue’s presence.

“Lord Feng, that’s all for the item list. The quantity of each item has already been recorded on this piece of paper.

“Please do have a look!”

After reciting the items listed for four to five minutes, the soldier finally completed his tasks and handed the paper to Feng Mengyue.

The handover of the paper seemed to have abruptly interrupted Feng Menyue’s imagination and forcibly pulled her back to reality.

She glanced at the supplies in the distance and the piece of paper in her hand, then shook her head calmly. “I’ll help Almighty Su store the items for now, and when he returns, we will…”

“No, Lord Feng. Our shelter leader wants you to have half of these things to compensate you for the hard work!”

Interrupting Feng Mengyue’s speech, the soldier raised his head like a proud peacock.

Feng Mengyue, who heard the great news, was no longer bothered with the soldier’s attitude and showed no signs of dissatisfaction.

She raised her head instantly in surprise.

“Really?”

“Of course! Lord Feng, you shouldn’t doubt our shelter leader’s words!”

…

Meanwhile, Su Mo, unable to see the face-changing performance of Feng Mengyue, had successfully led the team across Five Finger Mountain and was pondering on how difficult it was for him.

After entering the mountain, except for the cliff territory they first encountered that lived extremely miserably, with all their residents oppressed by the Liu brothers and the Murderer Territory, which had been plotted against by an unknown enemy, all the other gathering places that they had come across after seemed to be living…

Pretty good?

Feng Mengyue’s Mountain Moon Territory was full of stone houses, where villagers lived peacefully and content without worrying about survival or fighting for their lives outside.

As for the other two new gathering places on the Five Finger Mountain…

The first was Stone Cave Territory which had only 97 people, but each individual was physically strong. Not only did they have extraordinary combat skills, but they were also equipped with various unique survival skills.

They lived a prosperous life, and there was no shortage of supplies on Five Finger Mountain. They even managed to build a small mushroom cultivation base on the outer edge of the cave.

They were thriving, and the people’s hearts were filled with hope.

The second gathering place was San Chuan Territory, which was also flourishing.

Although they also had a small population of about 200 people, they had a great quality of life, just like Stone Cave Territory.

They accumulated resources from previous battles with foreign races and managed to trade some valuable items from other territories.

Similarly, San Chuan Territory has also opened up a suitable breeding base in the cave.

However, they did not breed mushrooms but a herbivorous animal that only existed in the wasteland, the Dachuan rat!

Dachuan rats grew very fast and took only two months to reach maturity, weighing about 2.5 kilograms.

Su Mo contemplated bringing a few to the territory but realized that they consumed a large amount of forage and would easily damage the territory’s environment.

After the comparison, Su Mo felt that he had such a great burden.

As the lord of the territory, although he could wander around, he also had to work extremely hard, unlike these territory lords who could enjoy comfortable lives inside their territories.

‘I hope Chen Shen, Shen Ke, Li Hu…can live up to my expectations.

‘Hopefully, the territory had developed as rapidly as these other territories when I return.’
