Chapter 558: Apocalypse True Daughter Cannon Fodder (29)

Upon hearing the message from the radio, Yu Wei was quite shocked.

He had never expected that path to truly be a dead end, nor that Luo Ning was actually capable of the so-called divination.

He quickly calmed down and had everyone stop the car ahead.

Moments later, all of them disembarked onto a safe patch of ground.

They couldn’t help but turn to look at Luo Ning, who appeared calm and collected, seemingly unsurprised by the message on the radio.

At this time, everyone couldn’t help but admire Luo Ning a bit more.

Although they had never believed in divination before, the evidence was right before their eyes, Luo Ning must indeed be skilled at it.

Yu Wei smiled and walked over to Luo Ning to thank her with a raise of his hand.

"Thanks for earlier, if it weren’t for you, we might not have escaped the danger of the rat swarm."

Luo Ning smiled back, "You’re welcome."

Then others came forward to thank Luo Ning as well, simultaneously apologizing for their previous misunderstanding.

The Luo family members were even more surprised that Luo Ning had such a talent, which meant that during the year and a half she was home, they truly had not understood her fully.

Seeing everyone coming forward to express their gratitude, they felt pride but also a hint of bitterness.

Father Luo and Mother Luo couldn’t bring themselves to step forward and give thanks, so they had Eldest Luo act as their representative.

To Luo Ning, just as she had with the others, she gave a casual nod.

Watching Luo Ning’s demeanor, Luo Baomiao felt discomfort in her heart, cursing the upstart, yet she had to remain wary and didn’t want Luo Ning stealing the limelight again.

At dinner, the smell of food wafted through the air once more.

Everyone cast longing gazes, wishing they could partake.

Although Luo Ning continued to draw resentment, due to the earlier events, everyone had become a bit more tolerant towards her.

Yu Wei felt distressed smelling the delicious aroma every day, after all, since the apocalypse dawned, they hadn’t eaten a proper meal.

Therefore, he was extremely envious of Lu Xun, who could rely on his good looks to freeload meals daily.

Although he was handsome, he couldn’t compare to Lu Xun’s excessively attractive face and had to make do with bread, relying on his abilities.

Too embarrassed to freeload, he only approached after Luo Ning and her group had finished their meal.

"Luo Ning, could you do another divination to check if that road is still dangerous?"

Luo Ning raised an eyebrow, "You still want to go?"

Yu Wei shook his head quickly to explain, "Not me, remember you had me send a telegraph to the other scattered teams, right? They didn’t believe it."

"But after today’s event, two teams were killed in the rat swarm, and now they’re stuck in a dilemma, so they sent a telegram asking for your opinion."

He had just had his moment of triumph, those guys had previously taunted him over the telegraph, and now they were pleading, showering him with kind words.

Luo Ning took out a piece of paper, "Write the names of those team leaders on this paper, and I’ll give divination a try."

Yu Wei picked up the pen and wrote the names of the leaders of those teams on the paper.

Luo Ning began the divination from fate reading.

"This team is in grave danger, it’s best not to stop and rest tonight, or they’ll be wiped out."

"This team can take a detour immediately, there’s still time."

"This team, if they speed up tomorrow, can avoid danger and rendezvous with the main group."

"This team..."

The several teams were heading from different directions to meet up with the main force, so while the main road was the same, the side routes were different.

Not every convoy would encounter a rat swarm, she told Yu Wei about the divination results.

Although Yu Wei felt that the divination was quite mystical and didn’t seem reliable, he was still half-doubtful and half-believing when he sent her results out via telegram.

The leaders of the few teams that received it decided it was better to be safe than sorry, and followed the advice.

No one wanted to die, after all.

A team that had already stopped to rest and had finished eating was preparing to let everyone get back into the vehicles to sleep when they saw the telegram from Yu Wei; the leader gritted his teeth and told everyone to skip sleep and hurry along.

Some people in the team opposed, thinking the so-called divination was nothing more than superstitious nonsense, and betting Luo Ning was guessing wildly last time.

Still, more people valued their lives and felt that if they didn’t move and really encountered a rat swarm, they would be the ones crying.

So, the minority agreed to the majority, and they continued on their way, tired as they were.

While Luo Ning and her group were sound asleep, the location where the traveling team had just been was indeed overrun by a rat swarm.

Kyoto Base had restored some satellite surveillance thanks to the efforts of scientific and technical personnel and was constantly monitoring the movements of the rat swarm and broadcasting it on the radio.

When the fleeing team heard the latest news, they were first shocked, then overwhelmed by the fear of a near miss.

Especially the leader who was grateful he had chosen to heed the advice from Yu Wei’s telegram.

During a break, he sent a telegram to express his thanks.

Other teams also received the news and did not hesitate to follow Luo Ning’s divination advice.

And indeed, just like her divination had suggested, those who took a detour perfectly avoided the rat swarm, and those who didn’t detour also just missed it.

Because of this, the name Luo Ning began to circulate among the higher-ups of Kyoto Base.

Survivors from the other few teams also remembered the name Luo Ning.

Yu Wei even went to thank Luo Ning again.

Consequently, everyone in the team also knew that Luo Ning’s divinations were all correct.

That was impressive.

The way everyone looked at Luo Ning had changed, now with a layer of inquiry and awe that hadn’t been there before.

Since they didn’t meet up with the main force due to taking a detour, Yu Wei led everyone to continue heading north.

A few days passed, and the already hot weather turned hotter.

While air conditioning could be used in the vehicles, everyone felt almost suffocated by the heat during rest stops for meals.

Then they saw Luo Ning take out two ice fans from her space and started blowing cool air after hooking them up with solar charging panels.

That wasn’t all; Luo Ning also took out a juicer and watermelon, tossed in some ice cubes, and made several glasses of chilled watermelon juice.

Lu Xun sat in the armchair next to Luo Ning, enjoying the cold breeze and sipping on the watermelon juice, utterly comfortable, ignoring the resentful gaze of his assistant. He was used to it.

Shen Yan knew that the resources his sister had were all collected before the apocalypse, so they were quite comprehensive, and he calmly enjoyed the breeze and watermelon juice.

Fei Wenxi and others didn’t quite know how to describe their own feelings.

"Ningning, you’re really well-prepared."

Mi Yan took a sip of the iced watermelon juice and felt the heat in her body dissipate.

"You actually have ice in your space," she couldn’t help but exclaim.

Luo Ning smiled and said, "When I was collecting supplies, I stuffed two freezers in there, and the ice inside hasn’t melted."

"Space is static, so the ice could be preserved."

Because she knew after the apocalypse, the temperature would be extreme in summer and winter, she had frozen a lot of ice cubes.

This revelation once again turned everyone green with envy; having a glass of iced fruit juice in this weather was sure to be refreshing.

Unfortunately, they could only look on enviously, including the Luo Family members...
