Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food

Chapter 329: Chapter 159: Attack of the Mutated Aquatic Creatures_3

Liang Yuan nodded slightly upon hearing this: "I almost forgot this, fine, you and Tang Ying go down and take a look."

"Hmm."

With Song Wen’s help, the treatment process became simpler.

The owners who had fainted from lack of oxygen quickly regained consciousness and were deeply grateful to Song Wen and Tang Ying, continuously thanking them.

Others also praised the two women while anxiously looking at the raging floodwaters.

There were just too many mutant creatures in the water, both visible and invisible, all capable of killing.

At this moment, many people hoped that they too could awaken a mutant ability, so they wouldn’t be completely defenseless.

Liang Yuan then used telekinesis, trying to capture a water spider for study.

Just as he moved one of the spiders with telekinesis, he suddenly felt something was off.

It looked small, but when he lifted it with telekinesis, it felt surprisingly heavy.

Liang Yuan quickly sensed with his spiritual power and found that this spider, though seemingly floating on the water’s surface, had something like a water tank hanging beneath its abdomen.

"Huh, what’s this?"

He was intrigued and strengthened his telekinesis.

The spider along with the tank-like thing was slowly lifted and floated towards the second level of the raft.

Liang Yuan reached out and grabbed the spider and its bell-like water tank.

Overall, the spider along with the bell tank was only about the size of a palm.

And the spider’s body was just one-third the size of the bell tank.

Upon closer inspection, he realized that the tank was actually woven from spider silk.

Inside the tank, there were tiny fish, waterweed, and other things the size of fingernails.

It seemed to be its storage tank.

Liang Yuan marveled at the wonders of nature, these spiders had evolved such bizarre structures to adapt to the flood.

This bell-like tank seemed full of tiny holes but didn’t leak water.

Liang Yuan took out a dagger and lightly slit it.

With a pop, the bell-like tank burst open, releasing a rush of pure oxygen.

His eyes widened: "Oxygen?"

"These spiders can store oxygen in these woven tanks."

"Does that mean they can hide in these tanks and submerge underwater at any time?"

"Also, they could be extracting oxygen from living organisms, causing short-term hypoxia and unconsciousness, then storing the oxygen in these tanks?"

Pondering, he suddenly thought of another idea: "Could we capture these spiders, cut small holes in their tanks, and place them over the mouth and nose of unconscious individuals to alleviate their hypoxia?"

"Indeed, undoing a knot requires the one who tied it, there’s always an antidote within seven steps where venomous snakes appear."

"This principle works on these water spiders as well."

Liang Yuan marveled again at the wonders of biological evolution.

He also thought about his own [Evolution] superpower.

If he were targeted by these water spiders and had his oxygen drained, could his [Evolution] ability evolve to save his life?

"Liang Yuan, look over there, it seems to be Henglong Building."

As Liang Yuan was pondering, Old Ma suddenly shouted in delight.

Simultaneously, people on the raft also began to excitedly discuss.

"It’s Henglong Building, I used to come here shopping often before the flood."

"Henglong Building has over forty floors, with numerous shops, it must have plenty of supplies. Look, at least twenty floors are still above water."

"How many supplies must be inside? I remember the top floors have high-end hotels, shopping malls, cinema complexes, there must be food in there."

...

Many people were visibly excited, eager to enter Henglong Building to scavenge for supplies.

Liang Yuan looked up and saw the building too.

The building was tall, even though the floodwaters had reached the fourteenth or fifteenth floor, there were still over twenty floors above water.

There were many advertisement boards on its exterior.

On its rooftop, there was a huge sign with the words [Henglong Building].

However, perhaps due to heavy wind and rain, the ’Heng’ character had its vertical part blown off, becoming [Genlong Building].

Liang Yuan took one look and sternly said, "Ignore it, check the map, find Yangshan first!"

If he were alone, exploring this building wouldn’t be a problem.

After all, he could come and go freely, with at least some self-defense capability.

But with the three rafts and over a hundred people here, any mishap could mean the death of ordinary people. noveldrama

He wasn’t foolish enough to risk staying in the dangerous floodwaters just for some supplies.

Old Ma was startled but didn’t hesitate, immediately shouting to Cai Zhi below: "Don’t stop, keep moving!"

Others on the three rafts couldn’t help but start discussing.

"Hey, why are we leaving? There’s a lot of good stuff in Henglong Building."

"Mr. Liang, don’t go. Let’s stop here for a while and go inside to find some food."

"Yes, Mr. Liang, even when we reach the mountain, we’ll need food. Why not search here first?"

Everyone became anxious, especially those who hadn’t caught any fish or received supplies from Liang Yuan, they became even more desperate.

On the third raft, a resident couldn’t hold back and shouted to Daoist Lin: "Daoist Lin, could you persuade Mr. Liang to stop for a bit? Let a few of us go up and take a quick look, we’re only a few dozen meters away."

"Yes, Dr. Yang, please help persuade Mr. Liang, just stop for a bit, ten minutes is all we need, we can bring down a few bags of rice."
