Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food Chapter 1266 - 600: Arrangements and Pregnancy

The conference spanned an entire day, encompassing the staffing of the three Floating Islands and the administration of mountains such as Cangfu Mountain. Discussions also covered future collaborative efforts with the Dove Faction Military, alongside population management plans for these territories. In essence, the scope of this gathering was substantial, with numerous items on the agenda.
Despite the full day of deliberations, many intricate details remained unresolved. Nevertheless, the overarching strategies and objectives were clearly defined, leaving the finer points for the respective departments to finalize. As the territory of Liang Yuan expanded and its population grew, the complexity of its affairs naturally increased.
During this conference, Zhuang Shuyuan put forth a highly beneficial proposal: the creation of an Internal Affairs Office within the Leader’s Mansion. This office would be dedicated to organizing governance and serving as a think tank to bolster Liang Yuan’s influence. Liang Yuan expressed considerable interest and intended to delve deeper into the matter. However, Zhuang Shuyuan, with her captivating presence, mentioned that she had already prepared documentation and would present it to him personally after the meeting. Her serious demeanor suggested a level of confidentiality that others readily accepted without much scrutiny.
Liang Yuan, however, immediately grasped her underlying intentions. He exchanged a knowing glance with Zhuang Shuyuan, whose alluring eyes met his. Their understanding was unspoken but clear.
Shifting focus, the topic moved to personnel assignments for the Three Great Sects. Liang Yuan declared, "The standard procedure applies: one month of service. Your respective teams will determine the specific duties."
Beyond administrative matters, the policy regarding the exchange of Genetic Species was also introduced. This proposal ignited palpable excitement among many attendees. It is common knowledge that, to date, most Genetic Species within Liang Yuan’s domain originate from the blood essence of Genetic Mutation Beasts found in the Mirage Snake Space. The limited daily yield of blood essence from these beasts meant that only one or two Genetic Species could be refined weekly. For the numerous Superpower Users in Yangshan, this was a minuscule amount, hindering substantial progress. Consequently, Yangshan faced a significant deficit of various attribute Genetic Species.
With Liang Yuan's recent acquisition of the Miyuan Rainforest and Yellow Earth Divine Origin Floating Islands, scarcity of Water Attribute and Earth Attribute Genetic Species would no longer be an issue. The Dark Abyss Mouth, rich in Dark Attribute Blood Crystals, ensured a plentiful supply of Dark Attribute Genetic Species. Furthermore, the abundance of Genetic Species Level Mutation Beasts on these newly acquired Floating Islands presented an opportunity; their blood essence, when extracted after artificial breeding, could be used to refine Genetic Species of various attributes.
Additionally, on the Dove Faction Military’s side, Cloud Mist Island appeared to be a distinct type of Floating Island, likely producing a unique set of Genetic Species. Mutual exchange and sharing would thus introduce yet another variety. The Celestial Abyss Passage, frequented by Celestial Abyss Parasitic Beasts descending from above, offered another source; their blood essence could also be refined into Genetic Species.
In summary, the issue of Genetic Species would cease to be a limiting factor for Superpower Users in Yangshan moving forward. This news was incredibly welcome, particularly for those Superpower Users who had reached the 50-Point threshold but lacked the necessary Genetic Species for advancement.
The conference hall buzzed with lively discussion, especially among the Captains who had accompanied Liang Yuan from Mist City. These individuals had approached mastery of their primary attributes back then and, upon arriving in Yangshan, had intensified their cultivation using the Yangshan Gene Activation Technique, which effectively doubled their cultivation speed. They had long since perfected their attributes to the 50-Point mark.
Except for a select few individuals with exceptional confidence who relied solely on their own genetic condensation for breakthroughs, most had remained in place, awaiting the opportunity to acquire Genetic Species to facilitate their advancement. This caution stemmed from the inherent risks associated with self-induced breakthroughs, especially after consuming substantial amounts of mutated flesh and blood containing a high concentration of mixed genetic material. During attempts at self-induced breakthroughs, these latent mixed genes could surface, potentially leading to failure.
A secure advancement to one's genetic activation level is only achievable by absorbing external Genetic Species of the same attribute, thereby creating a personal Genetic Map.
Beyond this significant development, the Dove Faction Military's decision to unveil their Superpower Technology also stirred considerable excitement.
Departments focused on research, such as the research institute and medical department, were particularly thrilled.
The military's expertise in Superpower research vastly surpasses that of other factions.
As the primary force to first encounter mutated organisms, they possess inherent advantages in research conditions.
Their methodologies for dealing with Exotic Beasts and their array of weaponry are unmatched by other powers.
The military's decision to share these research technologies with Yangshan will undoubtedly lead to a rapid enhancement of Yangshan’s capabilities.
However, Li Hanzhong couldn't help but voice his doubt, "Mr. Liang, will the military truly share their technologies with us?"
Liang Yuan responded with a slight shake of his head, stating, "I doubt they will disclose the most core and advanced technologies."
"Nevertheless, the materials they have provided me contain numerous technologies that we currently lack in Yangshan."
"For us, even these technologies are sufficient grounds for learning and research."
"As for any other core technologies, we cannot expect to obtain them all; our research department will need to put in the effort."
"Furthermore, on this occasion, I eliminated the Hawk Faction Military and secured their laboratory along with a significant number of researchers."
"No way!"
Li Hanzhong's face instantly lit up with joy.
Liang Yuan nodded with a smile and continued, "I will handle the arrangements. These individuals will first be vetted by the Inspection Department to ensure there are no infiltrators before they can be officially integrated."
"I understand. Such measures are necessary," Li Hanzhong agreed, nodding repeatedly.
Liang Yuan then addressed the assembled group, "Everyone, there is another vital piece of information: the Dove Faction Military has indicated that Celestial Abyss frequently manifests at the initial points where Floating Islands descend."
"Numerous Celestial Abyss Passages are created during the process of these Floating Islands impacting the sea."
"Thunderclouds gather in the sky, and only when these colossal Floating Islands fall can they breach such thunderclouds, forming these passages."
"Once these Celestial Abyss passages materialize, a vast number of Floating Island Parasitic Beasts will emerge."
"The Mutant Beasts that inhabit the Floating Islands often possess formidable individual strength, with many reaching the Genetic Species level."
"Any among you who wish to earn Points by hunting Genetic Species Mutant Beasts and returning them to the relevant department in Yangshan are welcome to do so."
"Naturally, as per the established rule, it is preferable if they are captured alive."
"Even if deceased, you should endeavor to collect their blood essence. However, the Points awarded for blood essence will be somewhat reduced."
For Liang Yuan, the primary objective remained the acquisition of live Mutant Beasts. Once returned, the slaughterhouse machinery would process them, and the corresponding Points would be credited to his account.Naturally, Liang Yuan had also contemplated that once the factory commenced production, he would personally implement the causal Damage Transfer.
This way, any individual purchasing weapons from the factory to hunt Mutant Beasts would have their earned Points tallied under his name.
At that juncture, his accumulation of Points would become extraordinarily rapid!
This particular announcement did not garner widespread interest.
Who among them would willingly venture out to risk their lives when a peaceful existence was within reach?
Only a select few individuals inclined towards combat displayed thoughtful expressions.
The entirety of the meeting continued until the stroke of midnight before reaching its conclusion.
Liang Yuan then dismissed everyone, and they dispersed.
Liang Yuan also proceeded home, and upon his arrival, he was greeted by a delightful aroma emanating from the kitchen.
Yang Mei had dozed off while resting on the sofa.
Yet, a soup seemed to be simmering in the kitchen, releasing waves of savory, meaty fragrance.
Gazing at his beautiful neighbor on the sofa, Liang Yuan felt an overwhelming sense of tenderness.
She was nestled on the sofa, her legs drawn up slightly due to the chill, enveloped in a blanket.
Despite the presence of numerous Mutated Sunflowers planted within, the ambient temperature remained somewhat low.
Fortunately, all occupants were Superpower Users with enhanced resistance to cold.
Even though she was clad in a thick down jacket, her ample bust was still noticeably prominent.
Liang Yuan approached the sofa and tenderly placed a kiss on her forehead.
Yang Mei promptly awoke and, upon recognizing Liang Yuan, exclaimed with pleasant surprise, "Little brother, are you finished with the meeting?"
Liang Yuan smiled and replied, "Mm, just now. Why don't you go inside and get some rest?"
Yang Mei announced, "I was preparing some soup just in case you might be hungry after the meeting. Where are Ding Yan and the others?"
"They've returned to organize the meeting's content today. Tomorrow, they must conduct smaller meetings within their respective departments," he replied.
A sigh escaped Yang Mei's lips. "So much to do. Allow me to serve you a bowl of soup first. It's quite chilly outside; this will warm you up."
Liang Yuan extended his arms to embrace her, whispering close to her ear, "While they're still absent, let's head to the room first."
"Huh?"
Yang Mei's face immediately flushed, her understanding dawning from Liang Yuan's suggestive words.
With a blush, she voiced her concern, "What if they return unexpectedly?"
"Hehe, if they do, they do. You won't be able to keep up, which would be just right, wouldn't it?"
"You're naughty!"
Yang Mei playfully struck him, admitting with embarrassment, "It might not be possible this time."
"Why not?" Liang Yuan inquired, surprised.
A flicker of joy crossed Yang Mei's face as she gently touched her belly. "I'm expecting."
Those three words struck Liang Yuan like a bolt of lightning!
His eyes widened in disbelief, his hands trembling as he reached towards Yang Mei's belly, hesitant to apply too much pressure lest he harm her delicate form.
"Are... are you serious? Sister Mei, is this... is this really true?"
Observing his overwhelming excitement, Yang Mei felt her eyes well up and her nose tingle. "Mm, it's true. I visited Dr. Yang a few days ago to see Little Tang, and Dr. Yang checked my pulse."
"Who would have thought he'd immediately detect the happy pulse!"
"I cried the moment I found out."
Liang Yuan could easily imagine the sheer elation Yang Mei must have felt at that precise moment.
Yang Mei had often spoken to him about her desire for a child.
Ever since they had settled in Yangshan, among all the women, only with Yang Mei had he abstained from taking any protective measures.
Never in his wildest dreams did he expect that in less than half a year, Yang Mei would already be pregnant!
For a brief instant, Liang Yuan's emotions swirled in a complex dance of exhilaration and apprehension.
He was thrilled at the prospect of becoming a father. Before the great flood, he had been overwhelmed by crushing debt.
His girlfriend had a major dispute with him over the wedding gift, and the burden of the mortgage left him utterly drained, with no capacity for new relationships.
He had resigned himself to a life of solitude, having abandoned any thoughts of marriage.
Unexpectedly, a cataclysmic storm swept in, irrevocably altering the world.
With the onset of the flood apocalypse, he not only gained a beautiful neighbor, a downstairs female streamer, and a female student from the building across the street.
Now, he even found his beautiful neighbor carrying his child!
How could he not be filled with a potent mix of joy and trepidation?
Yet, beneath the waves of happiness, a subtle current of panic flowed.
In this desolate post-apocalyptic realm, the child, upon birth, was inevitably destined to face the perils of the doomsday scenario.
This was the end of times, a far cry from the tranquil era before the great flood.
Liang Yuan remained uncertain if this world offered any true advantage for the child's future.
Thus, a sense of unease settled upon him, a pang of guilt for the potential inability to provide the child with a better life as a parent.
Prior to the great flood, regardless of societal pressures, people lived without constant worry, with readily available food and drink.
Young people could navigate life freely, unburdened by the need to purchase a home or commit to marriage.
But now, they confronted not only widespread scarcity and monstrous creatures lurking within the floodwaters but also the ever-present dangers of interpersonal betrayal and conflicts between human factions.
