Extreme Cold Apocalypse: My Shelter is Full of Beautiful Women

Chapter 32 The Disaster Known in Advance.

[Xu Qiang bought it? Then I'll buy it too!]

I want 5!

Save 10 for me!

Immediately afterwards, Ye Yan posted another message:

[Ye Yan: Selling Arrow Towers. 50 Firestones/tower. Effect: Automatically locks onto and attacks all enemy units within 10 meters. Installment payment available; installation requires only 10 Firestones as a down payment.]

The group was silent for three seconds.

Then it boils completely.

50 flints? That's way too expensive!

Installment payments? How do I pay in installments?

Can a single tower manage an entire building?

I want to buy it! Our whole building will chip in!

Liu the Blind sent a voice message in the group, his voice hoarse: "Hey, Mr. Ye, are you serious? 100 flints?"

Ye Yan: Seriously. Not a penny less.

Liu the Blind did not reply.

But everyone knew he would buy it.

Because he had already experienced the bitterness of not having arrow towers.

Just then, someone knocked on the door of 404.

Ye Yan opened the door, and Xu Qiang stood outside, still covered in snow.

"Come in."

Xu Qiang stepped through the door and then froze.

warmth.

Warm like spring.

The inside and outside of the door are almost two different worlds.

Room 404 was at least 20 degrees Celsius, and it was very warm and cozy.

Le Wuyou sat barefoot on the sofa eating strawberries, Qi Rushuang was pouring tea while wearing a thin sweater, and Ye Yan was lying on the sofa wearing a thin trench coat.

Outside the door, it was minus fifty degrees Celsius.

"This is?"

Xu Qiang hesitated, but his gaze quickly fell on the golden flame floating in mid-air in the middle of the living room.

That is?

His sequence ability?

It can create out-of-sequence items and also possesses a flame that snow cannot extinguish and can burn others to death—that is, this golden flame?

Upon closer inspection, the fire did not actually ignite the room; it was as if it were a holographic projection, yet the heat it generated was undeniably real.

It's like fire but not fire, what's going on?

Wait.

Perhaps this is why Ye Yan is not afraid of the cold, and why his arrow tower has a continuous energy supply?

"Is there a problem?"

Seeing Xu Qiang standing at the door, Ye Yan asked knowingly.

Ye Yan knew that he had many questions, including about the sacred flame floating in the living room.

But Ye Yan had no intention of explaining.

Similarly, there was no intention to hide anything.

"without"

Xu Qiang took a deep breath and didn't ask any more questions.

Some things are better left unasked.

"Sit down," Ye Yan said, pointing to the sofa.

Xu Qiang sat down, took the hot tea that Qi Rushuang handed him, held it in his hands, and sighed deeply.

"So refreshing—it's been so long since I've had hot tea."

"Speak, what is it?" Ye Yan sat on the chair opposite him, crossing his legs.

Xu Qiang put down his teacup, his expression turning serious.

"I've come today with three things to discuss."

"explain."

"First of all, thank you. You did me a huge favor today; those arrow towers saved the lives of many of my brothers."

Ye Yan waved his hand: "It's just a transaction."

"The second thing I need to do is buy torches."

Xu Qiang pulled a heavy cloth bag from his pocket.

"One hundred and ten flints, twenty torches, and I also want to buy an arrow tower."

Ye Yan raised an eyebrow: "You already have two."

"Not enough." Xu Qiang shook his head. "The wolf pack is getting weirder and weirder. I want to put one behind the building too."

"Can."

Ye Yan took the flint. He had no idea how much he was worth; if he still wanted to cooperate, he couldn't possibly lie to him about this.

For Ye Yan, the more arrow towers, the better.

That's why he introduced installment payment options.

And flint?

He certainly wouldn't complain about having too much.

Leaving aside the fact that upgrading the "Core Order Holy Flame" requires 5000 firestones, other things like the Holy Light Tower and the walls also require a large number of firestones.

Even later on, there will be a shortage of timber, stone, and iron.

"And the third thing?"

Xu Qiang remained silent for a moment.

"I saved someone."

"Um?"

"On the way back, near the internet cafe, we found a person lying in the snow, half-dead. We brought him back."

Xu Qiang paused.

He said he escaped from an official base.

"Official base?"

Ye Yan hesitated.

Despite speculation, it is certain that the authorities will not remain inactive in the face of such a large-scale disaster.

Therefore, a base and a first aid station must be under construction.

As for when it will be completed or who will be the first to move in, Ye Yan had no expectations.

He was chosen because he couldn't possibly be an ordinary person.

Once the Sanctuary sequence is awakened, it can be entered.

but!

When entering someone else's base, follow the rules. Is there a safe haven for them there?

base?

He can build it too!

Therefore, Ye Yan had no interest in the official base from the very beginning.

just.

He was interested in the actions of the official base.

After all, it's an official body.

"That's right, I heard one."

Xu Qiang's gaze swept over Le Wuyou and Qi Rushuang, he hesitated for a moment, and then stopped midway through his sentence.

"What's wrong!"

Le Wuyou pouted in dissatisfaction and tightened her grip on the doll.

"What shameful things can't we hear?"

"I'll go prepare some food," Qi Rushuang said considerately, preparing to get up and leave.

Xu Qiang's meaning was quite clear.

Some things are not convenient to say in front of everyone.

"ah""

She had just stood up when Ye Yan pulled her back into his arms.

She slumped onto his lap, her back pressed against his chest, and one hand reached out from the side and gripped her waist tightly.

"What are you doing!" Qi Rushuang's face flushed red, and she instinctively struggled.

"Shut up and sit here."

Ye Yan's voice wasn't loud, but his tone left no room for argument.

"To put it simply, they are all my women."

"That's right, that's right!"

Le Wuyou proudly puffed out her chest, her chin slightly raised, like a princess who had just been crowned.

"Speak up, stop dawdling!"

Qi Rushuang lowered her head, her ears burning red, twisting the hem of her clothes with her fingers, and muttered softly, "Who—who is your woman—"

Having said that, he didn't struggle any further.

Xu Qiang's heart stirred slightly upon witnessing this scene. He didn't ask any further questions or look any longer, but simply nodded.

"I heard that the authorities had already started working on something before the snow even fell."

Xu Qiang shared his guess.

"I suspect the authorities knew about this disaster all along."

"What?!"

Hearing this, Yue Wuyou fumed and said angrily, "The authorities knew all along, so why didn't they tell us?"

"They're probably worried about causing a commotion and disrupting social order!" Qi Rushuang guessed.

"kindness"

Ye Yan nodded calmly and expressed his thoughts.

"It could also be that there isn't enough time, and the established base can't accommodate everyone, so it's better not to tell everyone, which serves as a screening process."

"kindness?"

Xu Qiang and Le Wuyou looked at Ye Yan and Qi Rushuang in Ye Yan's arms, and asked in confusion, "Aren't you surprised?"

"What's so surprising?" Qi Rushuang asked, puzzled.

"With so much high technology at the government level, it's normal for them to have methods to detect this disaster! What's so surprising about that?"

Ye Yan shrugged.

"Besides, before the Blizzard, prices fluctuated several times, and there were occasional news reports from the authorities hinting that we should stockpile supplies."

"In addition, many wealthy people disappeared before the snowfall."

"If we look at it from the opposite perspective now, it's likely that quite a few people knew about this disaster."

Wait!

Ye Yan's eyes lit up.

If that's the case, wouldn't it mean that some wealthy people have hoarded a lot of supplies?

If we knew, perhaps we could "distribute" it evenly.

"what!"

Le Wuyou shrugged.

"These people are so awful, they only care about themselves, and nothing else."

She was about to say something when she noticed Ye Yan's meaningful gaze and immediately shut her mouth.
