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

Chapter 708 Kerry Company, Yang Mei Gives Birth

The investigation department acted quickly, and the results of the interrogation were obtained by the afternoon.

With a mind-reading expert like Zhuang Shuyuan, no one can keep a secret from her.

At this moment, at the Chief's Mansion, Zhuang Shuyuan was wearing a gorgeous cheongsam, her skin was as white and tender as snow, her hair was tied up in a bun, and a gold hairpin was inserted diagonally.

She wore a gold headdress on her forehead and was dressed in a traditional Chinese style.

This headdress is not merely decorative; it is inscribed with spiritual runes that can defend against external spiritual attacks.

Of course, more importantly, this headdress was a gift from Liang Yuan, so she naturally cherished it and wore it often.

At this moment, she exuded charm, handed over a stack of documents, and said, "We've already interrogated them all."

"This group of people comes from a force called Kerry Technology Company. Before the apocalypse, this company was a multinational technology enterprise, mainly engaged in artificial intelligence, biomedicine, photovoltaics, the Internet and other fields."

"It is said that they also do arms-related business abroad, with a wide range of operations. However, due to our national conditions, their arms business probably hasn't expanded here, but they certainly have the technology."

Liang Yuan looked at the documents while listening to Zhuang Shuyuan's introduction.

Where is this company located?

“Jiuhua Mountain in Yuzhou is also a high-altitude area. Before the great flood came, they were well prepared and had specialized laboratories and factories.”

"This company has now fully entered a state of military-style management. According to those people, most of the senior personnel are foreigners."

Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow: "A multinational corporation?"

"Ah."

Liang Yuan asked, "Who is their leader?"

"It was a white man named James."

"A white man? Does he have any special abilities?" Liang Yuan asked.

"These people don't know much about him. They only know that this white man is very strong, but no one knows exactly why he's strong."

Liang Yuan nodded slightly; this was not surprising.

Just like the people of Yangshan, they know that their leader is very powerful, but not many people actually know what kind of methods he has.

The lower the social class, the less clear they are about it.

"Did they build this spaceship themselves?"

"Yes, but I gleaned an interesting piece of information from them: this spaceship isn't entirely original; it has a prototype."

"prototype?"

Liang Yuan was stunned and didn't understand what it meant for a moment.

Zhuang Shuyuan said, "According to the information I read from their minds, this saucer-shaped aircraft was originally discovered as wreckage on a floating island. They then excavated it and developed a new generation of flying saucers."

"The supernatural runes on these runes have a form that is significantly different from modern supernatural runes, and that is precisely why."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan raised an eyebrow, revealing a hint of realization.

"No wonder I found it strange. Those wedge-shaped runes are different from any of the supernatural runes we've discovered so far. They're from a completely different era."

Suddenly, Liang Yuan had a thought: if people today have difficulty understanding the meaning of these runes, then could Jin Peng, as an ability user from ancient times, possibly know something about them?
Thinking of this, Liang Yuan immediately said, "I'll have the R&D department make copies of all the wedge-shaped runes, study them one by one, and make a copy for me."

"Ok."

"By the way, what's the connection between this Kerry Technology Company and Sprout Company?"

Zhuang Shuyuan said, "I was just about to report that Mengya Company and Kerry Company both belong to the refuge forces within the territory of Yuzhou, and the two have had fierce clashes and battles in the past."

"However, neither side seemed to be able to do anything about the other. Afterwards, the leaders of their respective companies negotiated and decided to stop fighting and make peace, and leave each other alone."

"However, with the emergence of the Heavenly Abyss Passage and the Abyss Island, the two had to face the threat of the Heavenly Abyss creatures, so they joined forces again and formed an alliance."

"However, although the two sides are on the surface an alliance, they are secretly competing with each other."

"Only after they all found a way to enter the thunderclouds and faced the terrifying mutated beast hordes above the abyss did they put aside their petty thoughts and truly seek cooperation and development, striving to gain a foothold in the sky and establish a city."

After listening, Liang Yuan nodded slightly. This development was unexpected, but also reasonable.

Only the emergence of a more powerful threat will bring these two originally hostile forces together to sit down and discuss cooperation in a peaceful manner.

It seems that the situation above the abyss is indeed not optimistic.

These two companies have a much higher level of rune technology development than the Yangshan and Guangfu military forces, but they can only barely stand firm by sticking together.

This shows just how powerful the mutated beasts in the sky are.

"Are there many forces capable of breaking through the thunderclouds and entering the heavens?" Liang Yuan asked.

Zhuang Shuyuan said, "It seems that there are only these two in Yuzhou. However, recently, Kerry Company's UFOs have been diving into the clouds and heading to other floating islands. During this process, they have successively discovered some floating islands where humans have built cities."

"Even further northwest, the mutated beasts seem to become scarcer. They suspect that humans have established a base in the northwest and driven out these mutated beasts."

"These mutated beasts are now being forced to migrate to low-altitude areas like ours."

Upon hearing this, Liang Yuan's expression became more serious.

"This guess isn't impossible."

Zhuang Shuyuan nodded and said, "I think so too. If there are more survivor forces in high-altitude areas, with our country's resources, the major forces in these areas will definitely transform quickly and adapt to the flood world."

"Of course, it's hard to say whether it will still be the same group of people in power."

"They may not have time to care about the lives of people like us in low-altitude areas, but I think it's still possible to use this time to develop supernatural technology and make a name for ourselves in the local area."

Zhuang Shuyuan analyzed: "Especially don't forget that there are also the Northern Theater Command and the Western Theater Command of the five major military regions of China in the Northwest."

"If they go all out, they should be able to react quickly and adapt to the flooded world."

Liang Yuan nodded slightly. China has a profound cultural heritage. Even in the face of a devastating flood, as long as it doesn't cause instant death, they can react in time.

Unfortunately, most areas in the east and south did not have much time to react.

It's estimated that this place has already been abandoned. As Zhuang Shuyuan's information was revealed, Liang Yuan gradually formed a general analysis of the national situation.

The high-altitude areas of the Northwest have not yet been flooded, giving them ample time to react, develop rune technology, collect materials for special abilities, and rapidly enhance their combat capabilities.

Even in these places, the search for the truth about the flood world has begun.

They broke through the clouds and even built cities on floating islands above them, driving away the powerful mutated beasts in the sky.

With nowhere else to go, these mutated beasts will fly to the low-altitude areas in the southeast.

This will make the southeastern region increasingly dangerous!

"By the way, can the floating islands move?"

Liang Yuan suddenly asked.

Zhuang Shuyuan was taken aback, then shook her head slightly: "It would be difficult to move unless there is a very strong power to move it."

"Otherwise, the location of a typical floating island should be relatively fixed, and even if it moves, it would be an extremely slight and slow movement."

"If they could move quickly, Sprout Company and Kerry Company would have left this area long ago and flown northwest."

Liang Yuan said, "Floating islands cannot be moved. Once occupied, without sufficient strength to protect them, they will become sitting ducks, at the mercy of mutated beasts."

He shook his head slightly: "Since the floating island can float, it must have a way to move; it's just a matter of the power system."

He thought of the pre-apocalyptic movie, The Wandering Earth.

Even the Earth can move, so why can't a mere floating island move?
"Have you extracted the spaceship's codes and operational information from the interrogation?"

"Um, not yet." Zhuang Shuyuan shook her head.

Liang Yuan said, "Interrogate them as soon as possible and provide the relevant information to the R&D department so that their personnel can disassemble this flying saucer."

"By the way, I don't know if this flying saucer has a positioning device. You can ask about that as well."

Zhuang Shuyuan's beautiful eyes flickered, and she suddenly chuckled, "Then do you have any reward for me?"

Liang Yuan looked up at her and saw her almond-shaped eyes filled with affection. He immediately understood that she was about to get an injection.

"Hmph, if I don't teach you a lesson in a few days, you'll start climbing on the roof and tearing off the tiles."

He reached out and patted Zhuang Shuyuan's plump buttocks.

This immediately caused Zhuang Shuyuan to gasp in surprise, her hips swaying wildly, her whole body trembling, and her cheeks turning red.

The next moment, Liang Yuan directly brought him into the Sumeru Space.

The rest of the time, things returned to their previous rhythm.

While guarding the bayberries, Liang Yuan used the psionic gene alert device to rapidly accelerate the gene recombination process.

The busiest department is undoubtedly the research and development department.

The R&D department now has too many projects, not only spaceship projects, but also wedge rune research, metallic blood crystal purification, and so on. It also needs to be responsible for training a large number of pilots.

These pilots will be needed for high-altitude combat in preparation for entering the Tianyuan World.

Liang Yuan's side also obtained the first batch of gene seed extracted from metallic blood crystals.

Without saying a word, he began to condense his own metallic gene.

Once this gene seed is condensed, he will have collected four-fifths of the five elemental gene seeds, only lacking the wood element gene seed.

Of course, he has also begun collecting wood-attribute gene species.

They are currently extracting the essence blood of wood-attribute mutated beasts every day, and it is estimated that it will not be long before they have collected all five elemental attribute gene seeds.

His strength will inevitably increase significantly at that time.

Time flies, and another month has passed in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Liang Yuan had just come out of the Gathering Spirit Tower. Thanks to his continuous efforts, the progress of gene recombination had finally broken through to 30%!

He also successfully condensed a metallic gene species.

However, before he could examine the various abilities and talents brought by this gene, he was still in the process of learning about it.

Lin Ya then sent someone to inform him that Yang Mei was about to give birth!
Without saying a word, Liang Yuan rushed home.

At this moment, not only Liang Yuan, but also Tang Ying, Yang Shenmin, Jiang Ziyan and other medical experts have arrived at the house.

Dong Yan, Ding Yan, Song Wen, and Aunt Li also arrived immediately.

Inside the room, Yang Mei's screams could be heard, along with Tang Ying's encouraging voice, a nursing graduate.

Liang Yuan's heart was pounding; he hadn't felt this nervous in a long time.

He walked to the door, not bothering to greet the others, and asked Yang Shenmin, "How is the situation?"

Yang Shenmin reassured him, "There shouldn't be any problems. The baby is fine, and the ultrasound has already checked the child's mental state. Everything is safe."

"Almost half an hour has passed. I estimate it won't be long before they come out."

Jiang Ziyan, who was standing nearby, also spoke up to comfort him: "The physique of people with superpowers is much stronger than that of ordinary people, Mr. Liang. You don't need to worry too much. Miss Yang Mei will be fine."

Wang Ling'er and the others also spoke up to comfort him.

Song Wen took the initiative to walk to his side, held his hand, and gently comforted him.

Ding Yan sat on the sofa, looking calm, but every few seconds she couldn't help but look towards the bedroom, revealing her inner tension and concern.

Less than ten minutes later, Tang Ying's voice was suddenly heard from inside.

"Come out, come out!"

"Wow, wow—"

As a loud baby's cry rang out, everyone's faces lit up with joy!
