Chapter 1 Jiang Chuxue Cries Heartbrokenly

Even though Fantuan had Level 5 strength, it had mysteriously disappeared. In this time of meat shortage, the outcome was obvious.

The thought of Fantuan becoming dog meat filled Jiang Chuxue with grief.

Jiang Tiancheng spent an hour and still couldn't figure out how the grain had vanished.

It was the world's eighth unsolved mystery.

The person Chen Luo had knocked unconscious woke up, stammering incoherently and looking ashamed.

It would be a miracle if they could explain it.

The base members were all awake. With no evening entertainment, they could only sleep early and rise early.

They thought it was almost time for a meal, but who knew they would have to go hungry?

Starving for one or two meals was fine, but if the grain problem wasn't solved, some would run away the next day.

Jiang Tiancheng lay in his chair, rubbing his head as he pondered a solution.

H City's situation was very unique.

It was common knowledge that it had a large grain reserve.

After the apocalypse, survivors from other provinces and even other countries bordering the nation came in groups to seize the grain.

Most of the grain had been looted.

Fellow countrymen were one thing, but if it were survivors from other countries, all the bases in H City would unite to resist.

Having fought alongside each other, Jiang Tiancheng couldn't bring himself to rob them.

Furthermore, Jiang Tiancheng was very strong; he was Level 6, and his daughter, Jiang Chuxue, was also Level 6, but they deliberately kept it a secret to maintain a low profile.

However, being a Level 6 and actively recruiting people had already made him a target.

If he dared to rob, he would break the current delicate balance.

Chen Luo was also a target, but who didn't want to live longer?

Jiang Tiancheng was Level 6, but definitely not invincible. A dozen Level 5s could hold their own against him.

Grain was the main reason he could expand, and although he had a lot of grain, he still rationed it.

Jiang Tiancheng murmured, "This situation is unsolvable, unless we can find the mysteriously disappearing grain."

Jiang Tiancheng shamelessly borrowed ten tons of grain from a friendly base and actually got it.

Chen Luo, this Level 5, was assigned to escort the grain.

Ten tons of grain were transported in a large truck, with Jiang Tiancheng personally leading the escort.

Jiang Tiancheng decided that after the grain arrived at the base, he would personally guard it.

This ten tons of grain should be enough to last a week.

Chen Luo rolled his eyes, even one day was a waste of time.

I'll show you what despair is.

Chen Luo directly used Void Banishment to move the truck more than a hundred *li* away. Banishing inanimate objects consumed very little energy.

Now you're dumbfounded, right!

Jiang Tiancheng was indeed dumbfounded. Where was his truck?

The members who were waiting for lunch were also dumbfounded. They hadn't even had breakfast.

Was this how the grain disappeared?

It disappeared right under their noses.

Jiang Tiancheng collapsed to the ground, a chill running through his heart. It was incredible, like something out of a ghost story.

If this kept happening, he would never have any grain.

Someone was sabotaging him in the dark.

But could a human do something like this?

Jiang Tiancheng really couldn't understand.

Jiang Tiancheng stubbornly borrowed another two tons of grain, but it disappeared as well.

Jiang Tiancheng completely gave up.

That day, everyone went hungry.

Morale was already collapsing, and there were even rumors that Jiang Tiancheng had offended the heavens.

Chen Luo watched gleefully, wondering how many days this base could last, and how much grain he could collect.

If the base didn't collapse under these circumstances, he would truly admire Jiang Tiancheng.

Chen Luo took some time to check on the Samoyed. It was very well-behaved, wagging its tail non-stop when it saw Chen Luo.

In a good mood, Chen Luo gave it two braised pork hocks.

Chen Luo laughed, "Following me is the path to glory."

The next day, a third of the base members left. Staying any longer would mean starving to death.

There was no future here. Even if they temporarily obtained some supplies, what would they eat in the future?

What good was Jiang Tiancheng's strength? Could it be eaten?

Chen Luo stroked his chin. In at most two days, Jiang Tiancheng would become a lone wolf.

In the apocalypse, supplies were the most important thing.

With Chen Luo, meals were guaranteed, which was what attracted talent. Chen Luo's strength only played a supplementary role.

As expected, everything was a piece of cake in his hands.

Without lifting a finger, he had brought down a base.

But something suddenly happened, disrupting Chen Luo's plans.

H City was on the border, next to the neighboring Kimchi Country. Kimchi Country was short on supplies but had a large population.

They had organized many raids to seize supplies from H City.

Jiang Tiancheng led his people to resist.

They could be considered to have some ties as fellow countrymen; otherwise, Jiang Tiancheng would have already led his people to rob other bases for supplies.

Inside a base in Kimchi Country.

A man with thick eyebrows opened his eyes, a chilling killing intent emanating from his mouth.

"Jiang Tiancheng, it's time to settle our score. Heaven is helping my Kimchi Country, helping me, Kim Hao Yu, to obtain a high-level crystal, allowing me to reach Level 7."

"I am invincible!"

"Gather the troops and invade H City."

A man excitedly said, "With Mr. Kim taking action, we will surely win a great victory and kill them all."

Kim Hao Yu's brother had died in the joint attack of Jiang Tiancheng and Jiang Chuxue.

Jiang Chuxue froze him, and Jiang Tiancheng used his lightning ability to kill him.

With time stopped, Chen Luo couldn't even resist, let alone others.

They couldn't even mobilize their abilities and could only endure it.

A dozen Kimchi Country bases on the border, upon learning that Kim Hao Yu had advanced to Level 7, chose to join forces, intending to seize H City on a large scale.

A large base closest to the border was caught off guard and surrounded, with only a few managing to escape.

Kim Hao Yu sneered disdainfully, "They are so vulnerable. I will slaughter H City to avenge my brother."

"First, find Jiang Tiancheng. I want to kill his daughter in front of him, hehehe."

The Kimchi Country's actions were discovered by the people of H City, as they were vigilant.

Several neighboring bases immediately chose to unite to resist, while also notifying other bases.

Internal struggles were common, but in the face of foreign enemies, they set aside their grievances and immediately united.

Jiang Tiancheng snorted, "It's that bastard Kim Hao Yu. I'll take care of him."

A middle-aged man frowned, "Brother Jiang, I heard that Kim Hao Yu's strength has greatly increased, and no one can withstand a single blow. He's come prepared."

"Otherwise, they would have been scared witless; how would they dare to come?"

Jiang Tiancheng waved his hand, "No matter what, every inch of our land is bought with blood. We will never retreat. We'll use numbers to overwhelm him."

"I'll be at the front."

The others nodded solemnly. What else could they do?

Chen Luo heard their conversation word for word.

Level 7?

Jiang Chuxue could also stop time, but would she be able to kill Kim Hao Yu during the time stop?

Could it be that this was how Jiang Tiancheng died in his previous life?

Should he save Jiang Tiancheng at his moment of crisis?

Wouldn't taking Jiang Chuxue be easy then?

Suddenly, Chen Luo slapped himself hard, his cheek turning red and swollen.

Chen Luo murmured, "Although I, Chen Luo, am a bit of a scoundrel, I can't be like this when it comes to matters of right and wrong."

Clearly, he had the ability, but he wanted his own people to bleed?

You're still scheming when it comes to right and wrong?

Chen Luo's eyes flashed with cold light. He would take on this battle for them.
