The Apocalypse Was Great Too

"Quick, look around this dorm for any supplies we can use. If you find anything, put it in a bag and take it with us."

As Shen Yi spoke, he quickly walked to the first bed and began searching through it.

Xu Wanting reacted as well, realizing Shen Yi was here to scavenge supplies. She picked a nearby bed and started searching through it.

As Shen Yi pulled apart the bedding, he messaged Ma Tianming to ask where the drone was.

Ma Tianming from the Sports Department: "Under the bed! It's under the first bed near the door!"

After getting the reply, Shen Yi quickly found a drone under the bed, packed in a white box. It looked brand new.

It was a DJI drone, and judging by the packaging, it was expensive.

After taking the drone and searching for a while longer without finding any useful supplies, Shen Yi and Xu Wanting left.

Their original purpose had been to get the drone anyway, so they were not too disappointed by the lack of other gains.

The moment they reached the stairwell, a series of loud bangs suddenly came from downstairs, as though something was pounding against the walls. The sound was extremely rapid.

"W-What was that sound?!" Xu Wanting jumped in fright and tightly grabbed Shen Yi's arm, nearly crying out.

"I don't know. Go upstairs first."

Without the slightest curiosity, Shen Yi immediately quickened his pace upstairs.

Having curiosity at a time like this was just asking to die!

When they reached the sixth floor, Shen Yi heard faint noises coming from several dorm rooms. It seemed there were people inside.

Shen Yi silently noted the two dorms where the sounds had come from.

In this situation, no one knew whether survivors might ambush others for a single bite of food.

After quickly returning to Dorm 606 and locking the door behind them, Shen Yi finally let out a breath.

"I need to unlock supplies as soon as possible and get some firearms!"

"I also need to find a way to awaken supernatural abilities as quickly as possible!"

"Only then will I have the power to protect myself in the apocalypse!"

Shen Yi made up his mind.

As long as he unlocked any kind of firearm, he could stack it infinitely. Then he would never have to worry about lacking the means to defend himself again.

Opening the box, Shen Yi found the drone's instruction manual and began reading it. He had never used a drone before and did not really know how to operate one.

After reading for a while, it did not seem all that complicated.

"Are you going to fly the drone?"

Xu Wanting asked curiously.

"Yeah, but I don't know whether this drone can carry three bottles of water."

If the drone could not do it, then Xu Wanting would have to go downstairs and complete the trade herself.

There was risk involved, but it was still better than taking the risk himself.

"It can. This model can carry around five kilograms. Three bottles of mineral water would weigh, at most, one and a half kilograms," Xu Wanting replied.

"Really? You've used drones before?" Shen Yi looked at Xu Wanting.

"Mhm, mhm. I used to film scenery and short videos. My Douyin account even has over a hundred thousand followers!"

Shen Yi's eyes lit up.

Then Xu Wanting could operate the drone. That would save him from messing up the controls and awkwardly crashing it into a wall.

"Then you operate it. Help me deliver a few bottles of water to a classmate." Shen Yi handed the controller to Xu Wanting.

"Deliver water? Okay, let me see if it has enough battery." Although Xu Wanting was curious which classmate Shen Yi wanted to give water to, she did not ask further and immediately began adjusting the equipment.

Judging from her movements, she was quite skilled.

Shen Yi took out his phone and messaged Ma Tianming, telling him to choose a location for the trade.

Of course.

Shen Yi was not about to give him the water first.

What if that guy was lying to him? Wouldn't that leave him at a loss?

Although three bottles of mineral water were not important to Shen Yi, he did not want to suffer a pointless loss, much less be deceived.

Shen Yi from the Foreign Languages Department: "The drone is ready, but I only have three bottles of water right now. You need to let me make sure what you said is true first. Otherwise, there's no way I'll give you all the water I need to stay alive!"

About two or three minutes later, the other side replied.

Ma Tianming from the Sports Department: "The way to obtain supernatural abilities is to eat something... As for what it is, I can't tell you yet unless you let me see the water first!"

Ma Tianming from the Sports Department: "And don't even think about tricking me. If I don't tell you what it is, you definitely won't find it! Don't think about breaking the deal!"

Shen Yi from the Foreign Languages Department: "Heh, that thing you're talking about is hard to find, isn't it? Otherwise, you would've eaten it yourself already, and you wouldn't be using it to trade with me."

Ma Tianming from the Sports Department: "Uh... that's true, but I can guarantee I'm not lying."

Ma Tianming from the Sports Department: "The value of this information is definitely extremely high right now. Even the authorities haven't announced it yet, so you could trade it to other people for supplies! You definitely won't lose out!"

Eat something to gain supernatural abilities?

Shen Yi frowned.

What could it be?

"Shen Yi, it's ready. The drone still has more than half its battery left, so it should be enough," Xu Wanting's voice came from nearby.

"But the Black Fog outside is really thick right now, and visibility is low. If it's too far away, I don't know whether I can deliver the water."

"Yeah, just try your best. It's fine if it can't make it."

Shen Yi was not particularly concerned with whether the water reached Ma Tianming.

He had already gotten the rough information anyway.

"Fly toward the gymnasium."

"Okay!" Xu Wanting walked onto the balcony and launched the drone, with three bottles of water hanging beneath it by a towel.

Shen Yi took out his phone, snapped a picture, and sent it to Ma Tianming.

Shen Yi from the Foreign Languages Department: "The water will be delivered in a few minutes at most. You can tell me the answer now."

Ma Tianming from the Sports Department: "Wait a little longer. At least wait until I can see the drone!"

Shen Yi glanced at Xu Wanting, who was controlling the drone with the remote. Her brows were slightly furrowed, her lips pressed together, and her expression was serious.

"How is it? Can it reach the gymnasium?"

"It can. I just didn't expect the Black Fog to be this thick..."

Shen Yi leaned closer and looked at the feed transmitted by the drone's camera on the controller screen.

From the drone's view looking downward, the entire world was blanketed in layers of rolling Black Fog.

The Black Fog was at least fourteen or fifteen meters high, swallowing up most of the low-rise buildings.

"What an astonishing sight," Xu Wanting murmured.

If this were not a disaster, it would have been quite artistic. Filmed on camera, it would have had a uniquely pleasing beauty.

But,

Who knew how many mutated monsters were hidden beneath that thick Black Fog!

Looking at Xu Wanting's delicate profile and serious expression, Shen Yi could not help kissing her.

Fine.

He admitted that he liked beautiful things too!

Especially thoroughly ravaging beautiful things!

Like that exquisite little face.

A beauty he could never have gotten close to before—now he could play with her however he wanted.

In a sense, the apocalypse really was great!

Xu Wanting's face reddened. She glanced at Shen Yi, then continued operating the drone seriously.

Shen Yi's hands did not stay idle.

As he made Xu Wanting blush furiously and unable to stop the sounds from escaping her lips, Shen Yi also sent Ma Tianming another message.
