Apocalyptic Flood: Sexy Beauty Neighbor's Midnight Plea for Food Chapter 1449 - 782: Lu Dayou’s Experiences

By this time, people were arriving one after another to check the situation.
Seeing more and more people gathering, it wasn’t the time to reminisce. Spirit immediately said to Shi Haizhu, Zhan Peng and the others, "I’ll leave things here to you."
"The one who activated the base self-destruct program is the dark administrator of Kerry Technology. He has a long‑range imaging Skill."
"Dark administrator?" Shi Haizhu asked in surprise.
Spirit said, "Kerry Technology set up two administrators in this base, one in the open and one in the dark."
"In normal times, everything is decided and handled by the open administrator, while the dark administrator supervises him from the shadows."
"Once the open administrator does anything that threatens Kerry Technology, it’s immediately reported back to Kerry Technology, and the base might even be destroyed."
"In the Kerry Technology base on Hell Island, the open administrator is Wang Tian’an, and he’s already defected to our side."
"The shadow administrator is called Zheng Yuan. He’s probably still hiding somewhere on the island, and he’s the one who activated the base self-destruct program."
"You must be extremely careful. His gene recombination progress should be quite high, and he’s very good at hiding."
At this moment Wang Tian’an stepped forward, grinding his teeth, and said, "Mr. Liang, I’ll go find him!"
Spirit gave a slight nod. "All right."
Just then, Lu Dayou spoke up. "Mr. Liang, you’re looking for someone? We might be able to help."
Spirit couldn’t help turning to look at Lu Dayou, and his heart stirred.
Lu Dayou controlled the Heart Core of this island, and the Brain Core was in their hands as well.
You had to know that once you controlled an island’s Brain Core, you could sense the presence and aura of every living creature on the island.
He immediately laughed. "I was just about to ask for your help. The Brain Core of this island is with you?"
Lu Dayou smiled. "It’s with Minru. Come with me, I’ll take you to her."
Spirit at once smiled and said, "Good."
Then he gave orders to the others. "Keep handling things here. I’ll just go with Brother Lu."
Everyone nodded in succession.
With Spirit personally taking the field, that dark administrator called Zheng Yuan would almost certainly not escape.
After that, with Wang Tian’an’s cooperation, Zhan Peng, Tu Long, Shi Haizhu and the others quickly gained full control of the base.
They not only copied and took away all of the base’s core technology, but also brought several research personnel onto the ship, planning to transport them to Flying Manta Island.
On the other side, Spirit followed Lu Dayou and the other two, walking all the way into the forest.
Only then did Lu Dayou and Spirit pick up their previous topic and continue chatting.
"Mr. Liang, Yu Yan didn’t cause you any trouble, did she?" Lu Dayou couldn’t help asking.
Spirit smiled. "No, she’s a very good girl."
"Did she awaken a Healing Superpower?"
"Yes, a Spirit Class Healing Superpower. She can transform into a two‑dimensional girl and, through dancing, transmit Spiritual Energy that radiates around her and heals everyone’s Spiritual World."
Lu Dayou’s face immediately broke into a smile. "That child has liked all those pretty anime shows since she was small. I was always busy with work and had no time to keep her company, so all I could do was buy her anime figures and comic books to read."
"She’s been obedient since she was little, and when something happens, she doesn’t make a fuss. I didn’t expect that after awakening a Superpower, it would be related to that as well."
Spirit couldn’t help but think of this little girl, Lu Yuyan.
She really was kind and lovable. She’d gone through storms herself, yet never complained about how unfair the world was. She still loved life, and loved this world.
That’s why she awakened a Healing Superpower and not a combat‑type Superpower.
Generally speaking, what kind of ability you awaken is closely related to your subconscious.
The fact that Lu Yuyan could awaken a Healing Superpower more than proved that she was kind deep down inside.
"You’ve protected her very well," Spirit said with emotion.
Lu Dayou also laughed, and said, "I’m just a big rough guy, raising a little girl. I don’t know much, but whatever’s best for her, I’ll risk my life to give it to her."
"Her mom ran off with someone else when she was twelve. Back then she was mocked at school—people said she was a kid without a mother."
"That very night I chased that brat down and beat him so badly even his own mom wouldn’t recognize him."
"He didn’t call the police?"
"Heh, brats like that only dare bully those weaker than them. Call the police? Not a chance."
"And even if he did, nothing would happen. I picked a spot with no surveillance cameras on purpose."
Spirit couldn’t help letting out a laugh.
"By the way, you still haven’t said how you ended up here. This is a Floating Island, thousands of meters above ground, with Thunderclouds blocking the way. Even I wouldn’t dare claim I could just pass straight through the Thunderclouds."
Spirit asked curiously.
Lu Dayou said, "Roughly a few months ago, we were living in the Shelter of the Zeng Family Garden District."
"That day, a thick vine suddenly fell from the sky. The vine was already somewhat withered, and it was hollow inside."
"I was curious at the time, so I climbed into the vine and went upward."
"Because I have a Wood Attribute Superpower, I’m abnormally sensitive to plants."
"I could sense that it still had some Life Force, and that made me really curious—what kind of lifeform could drop such a thick vine from above the clouds?"
"Back then I thought, maybe there’s some sort of Divine Tree up there in the sky, and maybe that place holds our hope of survival."
"I climbed all the way up along the vine, kept climbing until I reached the top, and then realized I was inside a pitch‑black passage."
"I followed the passage forward and discovered a Green crystal."
"Only after I touched that crystal did I realize this was a Floating Island, and that crystal was actually a Heart Core!"
Liang Yuan was somewhat surprised when he heard this.
Divine Tree Island had lowered its own vines, guiding Lu Dayou to the Heart Core so he could refine it?
He didn’t know how to comment for a moment.
Was it that Lu Dayou’s luck was just too good, or was this plant-type Floating Island simply too special?
This way of obtaining a Heart Core was far too simple.
"And then?"
"Then I went back, and brought Minru, Xiao Wen and the others up with me."
"Back then it felt like we were dreaming, like Heaven had given us a way to live."
"Because I’d refined the Heart Core, I could sense the distribution of the bloodline pathways inside the whole Divine Tree Island."
"It was like a map, incomparably clear in my mind."
"I led everyone, crawled out from within those bloodline pathways, and discovered this was actually an island floating in the sky."
"That terrifying cloud layer where it had been pouring rain nonstop was now actually beneath our feet."
"There were far too many flying Mutant Beasts in the air, so even on the island we had to move very cautiously."
"But there was soil here, there were trees, enough for us to survive."
"So we built a new Shelter here, and everyone thought we had finally escaped the desperate plight of the Flood World’s apocalypse."
"But Xiao Wen kept talking about wanting to find Zhang Peng; she believed Zhang Peng was definitely still alive."
"Oh right, is Zhang Peng still alive?"
Lu Dayou hurriedly asked.
Liang Yuan sighed and said, "Yeah, he’s still alive."
Lu Dayou immediately burst into laughter. "That’s great, if Xiao Wen finds out she’ll be over the moon."
Liang Yuan smiled but didn’t speak.
He feared that if Wen Lili really did find Zhang Peng, she might be a bit disappointed.
Liang Yuan asked, "So how did you end up running into people from Carey Technology Company?"
"We’d been living on this Floating Island for several months. About a month ago, several ships suddenly came to the island."
"Because I had refined the Heart Core, I sensed those ships the moment they arrived."
"But out of caution, we didn’t rashly make contact with them."
"After experiencing the apocalypse, I’m very clear that the most dangerous thing might not be the apocalyptic crisis itself, but attacks from our own kind."
"We observed them several times. After those people arrived on Divine Tree Island, they immediately started frantically searching for something and began building a base."
"Seeing that, some of our people wavered and felt that maybe they were a state troop."
"After all, this was the first time we’d seen anyone with the ability to build ships and come up onto a Floating Island."
"You remember, we saw a military plane when we were on the rooftop back then."
"That plane gave us a lot of hope when it appeared, but the scene of that flying beast ripping the plane apart left a deep impression on me."
"Now these ships can not only fly in the air without fearing those flying Mutant Beasts, they can even pass through Thunderclouds and build a base here."
"So we all suspected these were state ships, that maybe the country had developed some kind of super technology to overcome the problem of Mutant Beast attacks."
"In the end, someone among us couldn’t hold back and went to make contact with them."
Speaking of this, a hint of regret appeared on Lu Dayou’s face.
"Mr. Liang, you told us back then that if the country really had the ability to rescue everyone, they would have done it long ago."
"I always remembered that, so at first I didn’t dare believe these were state ships."
"When I discovered someone had secretly gone to contact them, I immediately took the others who were willing to follow me and hid in the underground bloodline pathways."
"Facts proved my analysis was correct."
"Those people captured our people and forced them to reveal the location of the Heart Core."
"Fortunately, Minru and I had never mentioned the Heart Core and Brain Core to outsiders."
"Our people were tortured—some died, some were crippled."
"Those people from Carey Technology Company suspected the Heart Core and Brain Core were still on us, so they kept hunting us down. We could only survive underground."
"Up until now, when I saw your ship coming, I thought I’d come check out what was going on."
"By chance I heard them mention Yangshan, and I immediately remembered that you’d planned to take us to Yangshan, so I rushed over to have a look."
"I didn’t expect to actually run into you."
"By the way, Mr. Liang, have you established a foothold at Yangshan now? And how do you have a ship? What’s the situation outside now?"
"Is the country still there? Has the government sent people to rescue everyone?"
