Reborn: I Stock Up and Bully the Trash to Dominate the Apocalypse

Chapter 1231

Even in such a hellish situation, they can still rely on their own hands and do their best to survive.

Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun also looked out the window and were speechless with shock.

But gradually, everyone's hearts settled down again.

Fortunately, they still have family members. The family supports and protects each other, and even in the face of such a desperate situation, they still have the confidence and courage to live on.

At this time, every household in the base no longer had its glass windows.

Previously, even high-strength glass was no match for the tsunami. Now, without a suitable supply of glass, everyone had to find thick wooden planks or boiling-point alloys refined at the base to seal the windows tightly, thus blocking out the high temperatures and scorching sunlight from the outside.

The Zhou family's house still has intact glass windows.

Sunlight streams through the glass into the room, making it bright even without the lights on.

This was naturally thanks to Zhou Shuwan's space, which contained a lot of spare high-strength glass.

Just to be on the safe side, Zhou Shuwan specifically asked Qi Mingyu and Mu Mu to install a boiling point alloy plate on the inside of the window in the inner room. Normally, the plate can be opened so as not to affect the lighting.

If another disaster strikes, simply close the alloy panels quickly to secure the interior, achieving the best of both worlds.

The same approach was taken in the medical department, research institute, command center, and various outposts—all crucial locations for the survival of the base.

When Qi Mingyu returned the next day, his brows were furrowed and his eyes held an unyielding seriousness.

Zhou Shuwan then asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen at the base?"

She had exhausted herself collecting wave after wave of boiling water from the tsunami, and had been experiencing headaches for the past few days.

Therefore, she dared not casually investigate the activities within the base anymore, and was almost completely unaware of what was happening outside.

Zhou Jianghai and Zhong Tiyun also looked over, their expressions concerned.

Qi Mingyu nodded, his tone becoming more serious: "After the tsunami receded, a lot of things floated ashore, all of them ship wreckage. I went to the shore early this morning with Captain Chen and the others to check the situation."

Zhou Shuwan's heart skipped a beat: "What happened? Where did the wreckage come from?"

“It’s not ordinary wreckage.” Qi Mingyu spoke slowly, his tone carrying a hint of uncertain worry.

"The wreckage was connected by rusty iron chains, which showed that it had been tightly bound together. Therefore, it is speculated that this was a small base, not built on an island, but a ship-borne base pieced together from countless ships, which was able to stand at sea for a long time by being secured by iron chains."

Just like the civilian base organized by Xue Wuwen!

The room fell silent instantly upon hearing this.

Zhong Tiyun murmured softly, "A ship-based base? In this cataclysmic disaster, there are actually people who have managed to survive until now using ships?"

"These debris drifted here with the waves after the tsunami, and we couldn't tell where they were going. The sea was full of boiling water and white fog, and it was all a chaotic mess. We couldn't trace the source at all."

"Captain Chen and I carefully examined the markings on the wreckage. They weren't from China; the writing was in letters, so..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhou Shuwan instantly understood the worry in his heart.

In the apocalypse, people are already struggling to survive. Even people of the same race will fight to the death for supplies, let alone strangers from other races.

They knew nothing about the other party's background, strength, or intentions. If the other party had survivors or companions in the nearby waters, it would undoubtedly pose a huge hidden threat to them, forcing them to be extremely cautious.

Mu Mu frowned: "We survived entirely thanks to these islands, the base's fortresses, the air-conditioned suits and mobile pods made by the research institute. It is thanks to so much advanced technology and a stable foothold that we were able to barely hold on in this turbulent sea."
