I Am Cultivating in the Apocalypse-Chapter 1071 - 1170: Is This Normal? It Seems... Not Normal?
On one side is technology, on the other is primitiveness.
In the Hulk train car, Su Malie stirred the roasted potatoes and sweet potatoes, saying, "Ah Zhu, are we about to enter that legendary secret realm? Where’s the entrance? Is there supposed to be some kind of ceremony?"
Jing Shu yawned as she brewed milk tea and petted the soft, fluffy feathers of the fat chicken, "What ceremony? Aren’t we already at the entrance? I’m still a bit unaccustomed since returning to Wu City, even having a bit of insomnia. In the South Sea, with the high oxygen levels, I could sleep as soon as I lay down."
Su Malie shrugged, "I never knew what insomnia is. Anyway, those people online who are super envied for having lots of hair, fair skin, taking a minute for bathroom breaks, and two minutes to sleep, I happen to have it all."
Jing Shu rolled her eyes, begging her to stop.
As the two were chatting, various sounds came through the walkie-talkie:
"This is the first Power User team, all potential dangers have been checked, fully prepared, ready to depart."
"Second team is ready, can depart."
The two teams finally started to move, heavy and calm armored vehicles pushed forward, pressing the snow tightly against the ground, and the leader of another team was a giant Abdominal Foot Worm, with Guo Tou sitting on it, leading the Insect Clan army forward.
Soon, the armored vehicles overtook the second team’s Insect Army at a speed of 40 km/hr.
And the insects plunged into the endless snow at a leisurely pace, neither too slow nor too fast.
Su Malie, a bit disappointed, blinked at the view outside for a long time, but saw nothing but endless snow mountains, shrouded in gray.
Su Malie said, "Is this entering the secret realm? There’s no warning or anything else? Aren’t we still at the place we slept yesterday?"
Jing Shu nodded, "To make our task convenient, we landed near the energy point, and people from Wu City don’t dare come close, so as long as we keep moving forward, we’ll enter the new magnetic field. Don’t believe me, check your phone’s signal."
Su Malie checked, and sure enough, there was no signal at all.
She could hardly believe it, the legendary secret realm, the new world layer, they just swaggered in like this?
At that moment, she really wanted to say, "That’s it? That’s it?"
Still not giving up, she asked, "Then will we encounter any thrilling or exciting things next? Or any potential dangers?"
Looking at the nothingness, besides snow mountains, it’s just a world of snow, Jing Shu shook her head, "We probably might have to travel for two days to delve into the heart of the secret realm."
Su Malie’s fresh curiosity hasn’t faded yet; after the first team was out of sight, they checked in every three hours with positions using their built-in satellite signal.
Three hours later, the first team had traveled about 150 kilometers, while Jing Shu’s team had only covered 90 kilometers.
By noon, as the insects stopped, the logistics department’s Situ Xiaoye set up the tent, and the extraordinarily skilled Master Liang prepared a bowl of hot scallion oil noodles for everyone.
Although the ingredients were simple, the scallions, fried in pork fat, added with some simple soy sauce, were poured over multigrain noodles, making everyone sweat profusely while eating.
Even the Zombie People, who didn’t technically need food, ate some since they shouldn’t miss out on the perks they deserved.
Zhen Nantian quietly ate two big bowls, and the three new Power Users with him had already succumbed to the deliciousness of the food.
"I thought the captain had special feelings for Jing Shu, turns out I was wrong."
"The captain turned down an overseas mission to complete this task, there must be a reason, not to mention, the food is delicious!"
"Oh my god, this is tastier than anything I ate before the apocalypse!"
Taking advantage of the lunch break, Yang Yang held a bowl of noodles in one hand and knocked on the blackboard with the other:
"Alright, everyone quiet down, for a brief meeting, we’ve now entered the Wu City’s New Energy entrance. Each department should keep track of their duties and report everything they’re responsible for each day, and mention anything unusual ahead of time.
Because, a small detail can decide the dangers of our location. Danger usually lies where things appear normal, in this panoramic view of snow where nothing seems dangerous, anything can be a threat.
Logistics, please report your work and findings first."
Big Yellow Teeth let out a satisfied burp, saying he was right when he mentioned you wouldn’t go hungry following Miss Jing. He cleared his throat:
"All supplies are normal; the sheep, rabbits, and chickens we brought are all fine. According to protocol, we check all supplies twice daily. By the way, maybe it’s the cold weather, but I keep feeling the urge to use the bathroom."
At that, everyone around laughed.
Yang Yang nodded, "Wu City is colder than other places; after three hours deeper, the temperature dropped by 3 degrees Celsius. Everyone should drink more warm water, cold weather tends to make you want to use the bathroom."
Zhen Nantian stood up, grabbing a handful of snow outside the tent, and the snow slowly turned to cold water in his hand.
Zhen Nantian said calmly, "Our team is patrolling the surrounding environment, keeping scouts always two kilometers away. While everything seems normal, I have a feeling—"
