The Great Flood of the End of Time: Female Neighbor Comes to Borrow Food

Chapter 497 The Value of Gold

The aftermath work in Yangshan was quickly arranged.

Although people from Yangshan died in this battle, the number was not large, which surprised Liang Yuan a little.

After sorting and counting, only more than one hundred people were killed in total.

Some of them died because they were seriously injured and fell into the flood, where they were attacked and killed by mutant fish in the flood.

He couldn't help but feel fortunate that the population didn't suffer too much loss.

However, Yangshan's infrastructure was greatly damaged.

Not only were the ships severely damaged, but important buildings such as bunkers and pontoon bridges were also destroyed.

But as Liang Yuan said, these are external materials and can be repaired or directly rebuilt.

As long as people are alive, there is still a possibility of starting over again.

Among the three mountains, the one that suffered the greatest and most serious losses was not Meishan and Lingyunpo, which gave up their defenses first, but Yangshan!

Because the resistance here is the strongest, the fighting is also the most intense.

On the contrary, at Meishan and Lingyunpo, there were not many fierce fights because they did not spend any energy to defend themselves from the beginning.

After the people of the Earth Mother Cult occupied Meishan, they automatically regarded Meishan as their future territory and naturally did not destroy it.

This actually preserves the infrastructure security of Meishan to the greatest extent.

Even the sunroom in the mutant sunflower area is intact.

The situation at Lingyunpo is similar to that at Meishan.

The enemy did not cause much damage to Lingyunpo.

At the Yangshan Chief's Mansion, Liang Yuan invited Wang Ling'er, Wang Yu'er and other members of Lingyu Island to take their seats.

Jiang Ziyan met her old friend Yang Shenmin, and her handsome mixed-race face was full of sighs and emotions.

"Director Yang, I never thought we would meet again."

Yang Shenmin smiled bitterly and said, "Director Jiang, I didn't expect that we would meet again in this way."

The two looked at each other in silence for a moment, with a lot to say but not knowing where to start.

Wang Yuer, on the other hand, walked around the chief's residence and shouted excitedly, "Sister, Brother Liang Yuan and his family live much better here than we do."

"They have a lot of furniture here, and there's even a shopping mall."

Wang Linger naturally also saw the various facilities of Yangshan Shelter when she came in.

She was also filled with amazement.

Although Yangshan Mountain is not as movable as Lingyu Island, the material conditions on this mountain are much better than those on Lingyu Island.

Liang Yuan looked at Wang Yuer and said with a smile: "Xiaoyu, look around and tell me if you like anything. I'll have someone send it to you."

Wang Yuer immediately looked embarrassed and said, "No, no, I was just talking. I didn't mean to ask for anything."

Wang Linger was straightforward. She lifted her hair and said, "Liang Yuan, can I buy it?"

Liang Yuan smiled and said, "Buy whatever you want. You have helped Yangshan so much this time. Lingyu Island will be a good friend of our Yangshan in the future. If you want anything, just tell Yangmei and pick it up directly at the shopping mall."

Wang Linger waved her hand and said with a smile, "Brothers should settle accounts clearly. If I really need something, I will definitely not take it for free."

"As for helping, we have a grudge against the Water God Cult."

Liang Yuan also laughed: "You also said that, one thing is one thing, you have a grudge against them, but you don't have to help us. This time you chose to help us, I have to appreciate it."

"Oh, you didn't help much. You were the only one who dealt with those guys from the three major religions." Wang Linger smiled while covering her mouth with her hands.

Liang Yuan shook his head: "Without the giant turtle, I would not have been able to get back so quickly. Forget it, it's a pity that the plague priest escaped. This kind of supernatural person is always a disaster if he is kept."

Upon hearing this, Wang Linger nodded and said, "The Plague Priest is indeed a tough opponent. His fighting ability may not be that strong, but this guy is quite good at bewitching people."

"Especially with his special abilities. If he is allowed to hide in the dark, the consequences will be disastrous."

When Liang Yuan heard this, his face darkened slightly and he said, "Ling'er, do you know where the Water God Cult's lair [Miyuan Rainforest] is?"

Wang Linger shook her head slightly: "Miyuan Rainforest is the base of the Water God Cult, and it is also a floating island. They will not stay in one place. The last time I entered Miyuan Rainforest was more than a month ago."

"After we plundered the Miyuan Rainforest, I'm afraid it has moved to another location."

Liang Yuan nodded slightly without any look of frustration. The Psychic Sect disciple named Xing Feng had been taken to Yangshan Prison.

Once Yangshan is stable, I can ask them to take me to Guangfu to find out what's wrong with the three major religions.

Thinking of this, a murderous look flashed across Liang Yuan's eyes.

He immediately looked at Wang Ling'er and noticed the crown-like headdress on her head, and suddenly thought of the golden armor that Xing Feng was wearing on his head at that time.

At that moment, his heart moved, and he immediately asked: "Ling'er, you are not wearing this headdress just for decoration, right?"

Wang Linger touched her golden crown and said with a smile, "No, I'm not a nouveau riche, so I don't wear a golden crown to show off."

"To be honest with you, Brother Liang Yuan, this crown is not a simple golden ornament. It has a spiritual defense rune array engraved inside it, and the gems on it are not ordinary gems, but spiritual power stones."

"In general, this is a piece of supernatural armor that can resist attacks from psychic supernatural beings."

Although Liang Yuan knew the answer, he couldn't help but sigh when he heard these words, and asked: "Are there many such protective gears in Guangfu?" Wang Linger nodded: "Quite a few. Now the gold price in Guangfu has been rising all the way, even more exaggerated than before the flood."

"Why is this?" Yang Shenmin on the side couldn't help but ask.

He didn't know the function of gold yet.

Wang Linger said: "Don't you know? Gold is a famously inert metal and is difficult to be corroded by other elements."

"Someone in Guangfu discovered that when spiritual power penetrates gold, the resistance becomes very large, so someone took advantage of this characteristic and designed gold-based supernatural protective gear to specifically prevent spiritual power from attacking the sea of ​​consciousness."

"Of course, this is only a defense against the mind. If it is mental power that manipulates matter, it is actually a physical attack."

"The combination of gold and spiritual defense runes forms a very powerful supernatural armor."

"You also know that the most bizarre thing about psychics is that they are hard to defend against mental attacks."

"With this kind of armor, I can resist many mental illusions, mental manipulation, mental attacks and other skills."

"Even if it can't block it, it can weaken mental attacks, so gold has become as precious as supernatural substances."

"It's a pity that I have searched a lot of places in the city center during this period, but I haven't found the former gold shop underwater. Otherwise, I would definitely be able to get a lot."

When Liang Yuan heard this, his heart moved slightly.

When he first came out of the Hang Lung Building, he directly cleared out all the gold shops inside, such as Chow Tai Fook and Lao Feng Xiang.

So he actually has a lot of gold!
But what he was more concerned about was that, in this way, wouldn’t the attack ability of psychics be greatly weakened?

You know, among all the people with superpowers, psychics are the best.

Back then in Midu Garden, Wang Ze almost unified the entire 76 buildings with the help of mental illusion.

The big-headed doll mutant monster in the Hang Lung Building is also a mental mutation, and its strength is terrifyingly powerful.

But now that everyone is wearing golden armor, wouldn't it greatly weaken the attacks of psychics?

Thinking of this, Liang Yuan couldn't help but frown slightly. He had always cared about the improvement of spiritual attributes.

Not only is the spiritual attribute the core attribute of spiritual skills, it is also the core of various elemental skills.

Even cause-and-effect skills are directly related to mental strength.

Now that the golden armor has appeared, won’t it put many people with purely psychic abilities into trouble?
Wang Linger glanced at Liang Yuan and saw that he was frowning, so she naturally guessed what he was thinking.

He smiled and said, "Do you think that gold-type protective gear will cause great harm to psychic-type psychics?"

"Is not it?"

"Hahaha, then you underestimate the psychics. If each psychic ability has only one use, then that psychic is incompetent."

"Generally, a psychic whose main attribute is mental power may rely on mental illusions and mental attacks to protect themselves at the beginning."

"But as long as their spiritual power continues to grow and reaches a certain level, they will eventually realize the extent to which their spirit can interfere with reality."

"That is telekinesis."

As she spoke, Wang Linger waved her hand, and the teacup on the table suddenly floated up.

She smiled and said, "My ability is to control beasts, but my main attribute is also spiritual. I can't master something as advanced as telekinesis at the beginning."

"It wasn't until I broke through the gene species that I naturally mastered this power."

"Of course, this should be different from the psychics who have already awakened their telekinesis."

"At least pure psychic psychics who have awakened their telekinesis must have other special abilities after they awaken their gene species."

"In short, there are no useless superpowers in this world, only useless superpower users."

Liang Yuan couldn't help but laugh and praised: "Well said."

"The power of a superpower does not lie solely in their superpowers. Only those who learn to develop and utilize their abilities are the most powerful."

Liang Yuan has met all kinds of people with special abilities along the way. As long as they can become the boss of a group, they must be powerful people who have deeply explored their special abilities.

So he agreed with these words very much.

As they were chatting, Liang Yuan suggested taking everyone to visit the Yangshan Complex.

Wang Linger, Wang Yuer and others followed Liang Yuan to visit the Yangshan Complex.

There was no need to visit other places because a lot of things were destroyed, which made Liang Yuan feel sad.

The only intact buildings are those within the city walls of the Yangshan Complex.

There are not only complexes and sunrooms here, but also farms and slaughterhouses.

This was a blessing in disguise. Zhao Kai made great contributions by defending the city wall and preventing the three major sects from breaking in.

Looking at the dazzling shopping complex, which even has electricity supply, Wang Linger's eyes suddenly turned red.

"You still have electricity here? Where does it come from?"

She asked hurriedly. God knew how much she wanted electricity to be available on Lingyu Island.

If there were electricity on Lingyu Island, the island's small population would definitely be able to live a middle-class life.
