Post-apocalyptic World: Stockpile Ten Billion Supplies at the Beginning-Chapter 152
Chapter 152
On the new base side, Chen Luo assigned Chen Guang and Fang Yu to supervise, with Xia Haoran in charge.
Chen Luo only needed to check on it every two days.
There was no rush; even if the zombies evolved to the fourth level, it wouldnt be too late to move.
In about half a month, the zombies would likely evolve to the fourth level.
It had been about a month since the crystal had shattered, and he could now reluctantly absorb crystals again (The change from March to January actually has no effect)
He could also use his abilities again, including Void Walk.
After absorbing more than sixty third-level crystals, Chen Luo sighed.
Third-level crystals had limited benefits for him, and advancing from sixth level to seventh level solely with third-level crystals was quite challenging. He didnt know when it would happen.
Third and fourth-level crystals were beneficial to others, but they didnt provide much help to Chen Luo himself.
Chen Luo muttered to himself, Time acceleration.
After using time acceleration, he thought about trying it again, but he didnt dare. It consumed too much energy, and using it once almost shattered his crystal.
He couldnt even begin to think about how to improve it or reduce the consumption.. At the very least, he would have to wait until he reached the seventh level to attempt it.
Chen Luo was about to continue practicing Void Walk with the cat when the Thunderbolt King began barking outside the door.
Woof, woof.
The Thunderbolt King wouldnt disturb him at night without a good reason. It couldnt be that he wanted to cuddle, could it?
The Thunderbolt King had a pleasing expression on its face and continued to bark, looking towards the meat.
Rice translated, Its asking for meat again. Give it ten pounds.
The Thunderbolt King wanted raw meat, but it wouldnt eat raw meat itself.
Without saying it, Chen Luo understood that it was for feeding the silver wolf.
Now, the silver wolf had become the Thunderbolt Kings sweetheart and had submitted to the Thunderbolt Kings dominance.
Chen Luo said, Didnt we just feed it ten pounds earlier tonight? Why is it hungry again?
Then, it struck him. He said with a sudden realization, Oh, I get it now. It ate its fill and is asking for more. Could it be for the gray wolf?
Youre helping someone maintain a mistress?
The silver wolf was the Thunderbolt Kings wife, so of course, Chen Luo was willing to provide for her. She could eat as much as she wanted.
But as for the gray wolf, well, Chen Luo dont want to eat its meat if he could help it. It was like expired beef.
The Thunderbolt King wasnt bothered, looking a bit sheepish with a lot of embarrassment on its doggy face. It gestured to Chen Luo and took the lead.
Following the Thunderbolt King, Chen Luo arrived at the silver wolfs residence. Chen Luo had built a relatively large doghouse for her, about a dozen square meters.
At the time, Chen Luo had ordered hundreds of warriors to construct the doghouse for her.
When the silver wolf saw Chen Luo, she immediately became alert and stood up from her lying position. She had accepted the Thunderbolt King but hadnt accepted Chen Luo.
The Thunderbolt King immediately approached and scolded her, instructing her to be respectful to its master. Then, with some embarrassment, the Thunderbolt King gently touched the silver wolfs belly with its paw.
Chen Luo was dumbfounded.
He saw the silver wolfs belly slightly protrude, something that was not easily noticeable without close observation.
Was she pregnant?
Wow, it had only been a short time. She was already expecting?
The Thunderbolt King, impressive as always.
The Thunderbolt King stuck its tongue out at Chen Luo, as if saying, Dont be petty. My wife is pregnant, so cant I have a little extra meat?
Chen Luo complied and gave the meat.
Hmm, was the Thunderbolt King going to have little puppies?
He wondered if the Thunderbolt King and the silver wolfs offspring would be powerful. In his previous life, the Thunderbolt King was truly a single dog.
Back in the room, Chen Luo took out his study materials and began reading the section on animals.
Wolves, he noted, could give birth in about two months.
That meant the little puppies would be born in roughly a month and a half.
Dogs were different from humans; they could run around by the time they were a month old.
An image popped into Chen Luos mind.
A pack of wolf-dogs surrounding him, all with exceptional talents and abilities. They might not be as strong as the Thunderbolt King, but they were more than capable. At his command, the special forces unit of dogs swarmed forward and tore apart their opponents.
There might be around a hundred and eighty of them.
Chen Luo burst into laughter and simply lay back.
Rice, who had probably been watching too many TV shows lately, whispered when the Thunderbolt King wasnt around, You think its possible that these puppies are from the gray wolf, and the Thunderbolt King is just stepping in?
Chen Luo was completely taken aback, giving a weird look to Rice. You werent like this before.
Nonsense! Shes a golden wolf, and wolves are loyal creatures with only one mate in their lifetime.
If the Law King hears you, he might bite you.
The next day, there was yet another piece of good news.
In the morning, Leng Chen, who was on duty, reported, Big brother, someone wants to visit you and they brought a gift. I saw it myself; theyre carrying a rooster.
Chen Luo was surprised. A rooster?
You may let them in.
With a rooster, Xiao Hongs eggs could hatch into chicks, and from there, the numbers would multiply.
Before long, a somewhat plump man with a bald head, accompanied by a few henchmen, entered the base.
The plump man had a smiling face, a somewhat subservient posture, and he extended his hands, reaching out for a handshake with Chen Luo.
Chen Luo glanced at the rooster held by the mans henchmen and courteously shook his hand.
The plump man said, Hello, Chief Chen Luo. My name is Lei Hao, and its a great honor to meet you.
Although were not from the same district, Chief Chen Luo, Ive heard of your name for a long time. Ive wanted to meet you, and today I finally have the opportunity.
It wasnt just Chen Luos district; even in the neighboring districts, there were rumors about a leader like Chen Luo, someone out of the ordinary with exceptionally strong power.
Lei Hao motioned for his underlings to place the gift they had brought down.
The gift box contained items that appeared to be sausages and fruits, though Chen Luo wasnt sure if they were still fresh.
The most eye-catching item was a large rooster, looking quite spirited.
For chickens and ducks, as long as they werent dead, their physical quality would be enhanced if they were well taken care of. Why wouldnt they be spirited?
Not every chicken suffered like Xiao Hong.
Lei Hao said with a smile, Just a small gift, a token of my respect.
The only thing that caught Chen Luos eye was the rooster. He hypocritically said, Oh, you didnt have to bring a gift. Youre already here; thats more than enough.
After some insincere pleasantries, Lei Hao explained the purpose of his visit.
He didnt come just to give gifts; there had to be a reason behind it.
Lei Hao raised his thumb and complimented, I know about your strength, Chief Chen Luo. Youre unmatched in this district, and you can be considered a local overlord.
Ive come this time to propose a partnership with you.
Chen Luo asked, What do you have in mind?
Just because you brought gifts doesnt mean Ill agree to anything.
Lei Hao explained, I have a wholesale food market in my territory, along with several warehouses. We have quite a bit of supplies there.
In addition, there are numerous seed shops. One of my underlings used to work there before the apocalypse, so he knows roughly how much supplies are available.
A thousand tons of supplies are no small amount, Lei Hao said with a meaningful look. Chen Brother, you wouldnt lack interest, would you?
But, there are plenty of supplies there, and a good number of zombies too. Plus, you have to cross two streets, which is quite risky.
Chen Brother, youre exceptionally powerful, so Id like to propose a partnership. What do you think?
After some brief consideration, Chen Luo agreed. Who would turn down a surplus of supplies?
