Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food
Chapter 160 - 103 Strange Bird, Negotiation_2

Yang Mei asked joyfully, "Is there really rescue?"

Liang Yuan shook his head, "The plane crashed."

"What?" The joy on Yang Mei’s face visibly froze as she looked at Liang Yuan in disbelief.

Liang Yuan said solemnly, "This world has undergone unimaginable changes. Mutant creatures are popping up everywhere. It’s not just humans; fish in the sea have mutated, and even birds and beasts flying in the sky have mutated."

"Just a moment ago, a strange bird of an unknown species, only slightly smaller than the transport plane, dived down from the clouds and tore the plane apart."

Yang Mei’s face turned pale, and she asked, trembling, "How... how could this happen? Didn’t they have weapons? Military planes don’t have weapons? How could a strange bird stop them?"

Liang Yuan shook his head, "I don’t know. That strange bird was too fast, and the pilot had no time to react."

"Also, I find it strange. With floods everywhere, where does such a huge bird build its nest?"

Liang Yuan frowned. The appearance of the strange bird gave him a new understanding of this world.

Such a large mutant bird, able to traverse the clouds.

Where would its nest be?

On top of a building? Or on a mountain?

If all creatures have undergone evolutionary mutation, might there be many such land and aerial creatures gathering on the remaining high mountains like Sun Mountain and Meishan?

Wouldn’t that make those places very dangerous?

"Knock, knock, knock..."

The door was knocked, and Liang Yuan patted Yang Mei’s shoulder.

Yang Mei quickly got up, tidied her messy hair, and said, "I’ll go open the door."

The door opened, and Cai Zhi, Old Ma, Zhao Kai, and Ding Yan all arrived.

Liang Yuan first looked at Ding Yan and asked, "Awake? How are Zhang Peng and the others?"

He had left in a hurry before, only placing Ding Yan and a few others in Wang Ze’s room before rushing off to gather supplies.

Ding Yan, with a look of lingering fear on her face, nodded, "I’m fine. Zhang Peng and the others have also woken up. Wang Ze’s group is all dead. Zhang Peng and Wen Lili said you did it?"

Liang Yuan nodded, "Yes, I killed them."

Ding Yan sighed, "What kind of mutant ability did Wang Ze have? It was really powerful. I never got close to him the whole time."

Liang Yuan said, "He had spiritual power, the ability to create illusions. Your empowerment talent enhances bursts. It has some disadvantages against him."

"Creating illusions?"

Ding Yan couldn’t help but change her expression, "No wonder I couldn’t hit him, no matter how I fought. So it was all an illusion?"

"Such mutant abilities are really... quite terrifying."

Liang Yuan nodded, "Human individuals are complex, and the directions of evolution are myriad. Spiritual power mutant abilities are indeed tricky and hard to defend against."

Ding Yan also nodded, suddenly asking, "By the way, when I came just now, Old Ma and they said a rescue plane came?"

Liang Yuan looked at Old Ma and the others, "You all told her?"

"Yes, I just told her what happened upstairs," Old Ma sighed.

Cai Zhi said, "Liang Yuan, what was that strange bird? How could it tear a military transport plane apart before they had time to react?"

"It should be some kind of flying mutant creature, though what it originally was, I don’t know."

"Will there be many such creatures?" Ma Guocai couldn’t help but ask.

Liang Yuan shook his head, "I don’t know, but one thing is certain: the country has not been able to send effective rescue so far, probably encountering some obstacles."

"Amidst the floods, there are more giant mutant creatures. Mutant birds in the sky will intercept aircraft. It seems land, sea, and air transportation are paralyzed, making travel impossible."

"Furthermore, remote communication means like the internet and radio seem to be restricted. Otherwise, with radar detection, the military transport plane would have had some reaction time."

"By the way, has radio communication been restored?" Liang Yuan suddenly asked Yang Mei.

Besides grilling fish, he had given Yang Mei the task of monitoring the radio.

She would spend some time each day searching for radio stations.

Yang Mei, hearing Liang Yuan’s question, replied dejectedly, "No, it’s all static. Not a single station."

Liang Yuan’s face grew even more grave. He said to everyone, "Looks like even radio is severely interfered with."

"Because of this, the military may not be able to use many high-tech weapons other than gunpowder weapons, especially things like map navigation."

This statement made everyone’s hearts sink even further.

Without navigation, in such a huge city, who can know the way?

Not to mention the military, even people who have lived in a city for decades would find it hard to navigate with only isolated buildings left after a flood.

Liang Yuan thought for a moment and took out his phone, turning on the compass.

Only to see the compass needle on the phone wobbling violently, unable to point south.

Liang Yuan’s expression grew even more serious, "Even the compass doesn’t work. This means the magnetic interference is severe."

Their worry deepened, and they couldn’t help but start asking questions.

Old Ma couldn’t help but ask, "What on earth happened? Isn’t it just a big flood? How is the Earth’s magnetic field affected?"

Cai Zhi also couldn’t help but ask, "Does the country really have no solutions?"

Ding Yan remained relatively calm and said, "Old Ma, this is obviously not an ordinary flood. It’s very likely some unknown disaster has caused global changes."
