Ice Age Apocalypse: I Hoard Billions of Supplies

Chapter 358: Satellite Phone

Zhang Yi listened to Liang Yue's words nearby and thought to himself: what Liang Yue needed was a spiritual refuge, a reasonable explanation to let go of those students.

This was Liang Yue; if it were anyone else, Zhang Yi wouldn’t have bothered wasting time on her.

However, he couldn’t bear to lose this powerful martial arts expert who could also be his teacher in national martial arts!

So Zhang Yi stepped forward to mediate, “Let’s not discuss this matter for now. Keran, we need to quickly repair the outer wall of the shelter. You go prepare the materials!”

Zhang Yi changed the subject, not giving Liang Yue the chance to continue her discussion.

If they talked further, the situation might develop in a direction he didn’t want to see.

So, he took Lu Keran away while giving Liang Yue a reassuring look.

A warm feeling surged in Liang Yue's heart.

Zhang Yi and Lu Keran went to the workshop and took out the materials.

“How long will it take to process these materials and repair the shelter?”

Lu Keran replied, “The damaged area of the outer wall is only about a dozen square meters. If we don’t consider aesthetics and just focus on reinforcement, it can actually be done in two or three days.”

The most troublesome part of repairing the outer wall was making it seamless, ensuring that others wouldn't see any signs of damage.

Zhang Yi waved his hand; he didn’t care about the wall’s appearance at all.

“I only require it to be sturdy; the rest is irrelevant.”

“Got it!”

Lu Keran nodded and went to change into work clothes, preparing to start.

“Can you manage alone?” Zhang Yi asked.

With so many materials, even an adult male would find it somewhat troublesome to operate alone.

Lu Keran blinked and smiled, “Big brother, you all have things to do! Don’t worry, I might be a bit slow by myself, but I’ll definitely ensure the quality.”

Zhang Yi and the other superhumans needed to build the outer defense line, so they wouldn’t have time to help her; Lu Keran understood this very well.

Zhang Yi put his hands in his pockets, and several figures flashed through his mind.

He smiled, “I’ll call over Yang Siyah and the others to help you.”

The other women in the house weren’t able to contribute outside, so they might as well lend a hand now.

Lu Keran couldn’t help but laugh, “But they’re too weak! I’m not sure they can handle this kind of work.”

Zhang Yi sighed lightly and pinched her plump little cheek.

“Sometimes don’t forget, you’re also a girl. If you can do it, why can’t they?”

Lu Keran’s face turned slightly red as she nodded, “Then... let them help me with moving the materials!”

Zhang Yi nodded, turned, and went to find Yang Siyah and the others.

They had nothing to do at home, so when they heard Zhang Yi’s request, Zhou Haimei and Yang Siyah went over to help Lu Keran.

Everyone inside and outside was busy working vigorously.

Zhang Yi estimated that ideally, the outer wall would be repaired in three days, and a solid firepower defense line would be established.

By then, even with a large arsenal at his disposal, he wouldn’t be at a disadvantage even if he faced the forces of two bases simultaneously.

Moreover, with Yangsheng and Chaoyu bases at least a hundred kilometers away, their combat effectiveness would be diminished from the long trek.

“Even if it’s one against two, the advantage is still in my hands.”

Zhang Yi’s mood relaxed a bit; at least he wouldn’t feel anxious about the impending war.

He walked to Yang Xinxin’s room and knocked on the door: “Xinxin, it’s me.”

“Brother, wait a moment!”

Yang Xinxin's sweet voice came from inside the room.

Only when facing Zhang Yi did she show her obedient and cute side.

The door opened from the inside, and Yang Xinxin, wearing a light beige pure cotton nightgown, looked up at Zhang Yi with innocent eyes.

“Brother, welcome back!”

Zhang Yi smiled and pushed her wheelchair into the room, then turned around to close the door.

“Xinxin, we encountered some interesting things again on this trip.”

Zhang Yi told Yang Xinxin about their encounter with the people from Yangsheng Base and how he killed them all.

Yang Xinxin was more intelligent than Lu Keran and had deeper thoughts, so there was no need to worry about her accidentally leaking anything.

Moreover, Zhang Yi needed Yang Xinxin’s help to deal with the students from Xu Family Town.

As expected, after hearing what Zhang Yi said, Yang Xinxin immediately understood why he had come to find her.

“Brother, you’ve killed people from both Yangsheng and Chaoyu bases in just a few days!”

“Oh dear, they’ve lost some very important superhumans. In this tense situation, they can’t possibly ignore it, right?”

“So they’ll be coming to kill us soon!”

Zhang Yi smiled faintly: “I’m not afraid of them; those people aren’t my biggest trouble.”

At most, it would be like facing the West Hill Base, unable to go out freely for a long time.

However, with the forces of the two major bases, it was impossible for them to break through the defenses and the shelter Zhang Yi had set up.

Yang Xinxin nodded, “Indeed, they don’t have the military background like Chen Xinian; they are all insurgents and can’t bring in heavy bunker-busting missiles as weapons. So they don’t pose much of a threat to the shelter.”

“Then can we take this opportunity to get rid of the students from Xu Family Town?”

Yang Xinxin’s tone was very calm.

She didn’t have any hatred towards those students; after all, she hadn’t suffered much at Tianqing Academy.

On the surface, she seemed weak, but in reality, those who had ever attacked her had already been taken care of by Hua Hua.

She just disliked those selfish fools, believing their existence was meaningless.

Now that they had become a problem for Zhang Yi, Yang Xinxin naturally wanted them dead.

Zhang Yi laughed: “We need to use a knife to kill someone; it wouldn’t be good for any of us to take action. After all, Liang Yue is still very useful to me.”

“Though it’s a bit troublesome, it’s worth it for her.”

After saying this, Zhang Yi took out a signal jammer from the spatial storage and placed it in the corner to connect the power supply.

Then he retrieved the satellite phone from the members of Yangsheng Base he had confiscated and handed it to Yang Xinxin.

“These are the satellite phones of the Yangsheng Base members. Help me analyze whether there is any important information in them.”

“After transferring the data, give it back to me; I have a use for it.”

Yang Xinxin smiled: “This is easy!”

For a top hacker like her, this kind of work was extremely simple.

She transferred all the data from the satellite phone to her computer and said to Zhang Yi, “Brother, I’ll analyze the data carefully and get it sorted out for you afterwards.”

Zhang Yi nodded, packed up the satellite phones again, and left Yang Xinxin’s room.
