I'm the Villainess in the Apocalypse
Chapter 107. Departure

Chapter 107: 107. Departure

"I have prepared at least two places where we can stop midway." Dylan smiled.

"Your family’s building?"

"Yeah." Dylan shrugged. "My family main business is in real estate but there are also several other businesses. For these businesses, there will definitely be some company buildings."

Mark nodded in understanding. In terms of money, Dylan was actually very rich. After all he and Lucy’s family mostly invested in military. There were only a few other businesses that the uncles or others did.

So if one counted it, Dylan was actually the richest.

But he was also the one who made trouble the most.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

"The loss during this flood will be very significant," Mark remarked.

"Everything is insured," Dylan said. "But I’m sure that insurance company people will run away very quickly. The amount of money they had to pay out for this matter is very significant."

The flood had caused a lot of losses. Based on the principle of the property loss due to accident and not manmade disaster.... The company will pay in full for them.

If it was a small accident, some insurance company was still very kind and willing to compensate in full. But some other insurance company only cared about money they earned and will never want to compensate these people.

They will use their own terms, arguments, and so on, making one angry.

But there was nothing that they could do.

They could only eat their dumb loss.

Some people will move to other insurance company while some others just simply drop out because they didn’t have any money left. The so called insurance that these unscrupulous companies mentioned was nothing more than lies.

They were only willing to pay the small fees and the big fees were all pressed away with various reasons, which simply push people who had already despaired into further despairs.

"I see." Mark nodded.

Considering how big this flood caused the damage, it would be stranger instead if these insurance company could pay the money they ’owed’ to their customers. If they still wanted to live, they might not be willing to fork out the money at all.

Lucy and Anna came to the two boys. "What are you talking about?"

"We’re talking about the insurance company."

"Insurance company?" Anna had a strange expression. "Are you sure that the currency would not be changed after this incident?"

Changed currency?

The others looked at each other speechlessly.

"While it’s possible to change the currency, it’s definitely would not be done overnight. Do you want to cause chaos by changing the currency just like that?" Dylan asked and shook his head.

Anna stuck out her tongue.

She thought about this because of the many apocalypse themed books that she had read in the past. Those were only novels, but they provided her with interesting view.

Well, in those books, the end times happened because of zombies and other mutations, though. It was definitely very different from the so called apocalypse that she experienced right now.

At that time, money was indeed worthless.

But in this situation, what they experienced was still categorized as natural disaster. Even if the value of money was depreciated, it could still be used temporarily until the government decided whether to make new currency or something.

However, it would definitely not be done overnight.

There will be a transition period between the new currency circulation and the old circulation still being used.

This was to prevent their economy from collapsing.

Though... Anna honestly thought that it had already collapsed by now.

"Ok, let’s go."

"Yes."

Anna had packed everything in two bags for herself. On the other hand, Dylan carried three bags. The last bags were filled with plastic bags that contained water. No matter what, they would need a lot of water on their journey.

"We’ll help carrying the boat." Lucy pointed at the big boat they had pumped.

"Ok."

With that, the four of them made their way down again. This time, no one came out and bother them. It seemed as if these people had the determination not to go out before they could confirm the situation was safe.

The chaos at that time had caused shadow in many people’s heart.

Splash!

Putting the boat down, Anna and Dylan also put their bags down.

"The water had decreased," Mark said as he pointed at the water mark on the walls. After the rain stopped yesterday, the water had already dropped by more than half a meter. It seemed like a good thing.

Dylan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the mark. "It’s too fast."

"Is it?"

"If the entire world is submerged in the water, where can this water flow? Unless there are places that are lower or the water evaporated into the air once more at such rapid speed." Dylan looked at Mark. "Pay attention to the temperature later."

"Ok." Mark nodded solemnly.

If the temperature increased rapidly and caused the water to evaporate faster, they would also need to maintain their daily necessity water. The amount of water they kept from the rain distillation and the water from before was not much.

They still had to pay attention to how much water they consumed each day to sustain their body’s need.

Serious dehydration could lead to death.

"We’re going now." Dylan handed the paddle to Anna and also took another pair for himself.

Anna slowly tried to row the boat but it turned the opposite direction from what she wanted.

Anna: "..."

It’s harder than it looks.

"I’ll row for the time being." Dylan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry when he saw Anna’s lost appearance.

"Ok."

Splash! Splash!

Mark and Lucy watched the boat slowly disappear from their vision and then turned back.

"Will there be any danger outside?"

"There are definitely dangers, but they would be able to handle it," Mark comforted Lucy.

"I hope so," Lucy mumbled in a low voice but Mark could still hear it. He also nodded silently.

They hoped Anna and Dylan would be alright.
