Quick Transmigration: Reversing the Life of a Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character

"Time and Space Administration employee Chu Lanyu, mission complete. Ten points added, total points seventy-six. Emotions generated in the mission world have been cleared."

Despite clearing away her emotions, Chu Lanyu felt somewhat exhausted and rested for a long time in the quiet dormitory area before accepting her next task.

This is a post-apocalyptic wasteland after a nuclear war. The original owner of this body is a 25-year-old woman. Her father was an awakened warrior who died during a hunt, and her mother was an ordinary person who died of late-stage radiation sickness six months ago. The original owner also has a two-year-old son. Her mission this time is to raise this child to adulthood.

The time she entered the original owner's body was when she was out gathering things and was targeted by two scoundrels. These two not only wanted to steal her things, but also wanted to rape her. She dropped the basket containing two leaves with moderate radiation and ran into the edge of a high-radiation area in a panic. She was scratched by a pheasant with two heads. The wound was deep and to the bone. Combined with the high-radiation environment, the original owner died instantly.

Enduring excruciating pain, Chang Dongning dragged her weak body to the foot of a large rock. There was a recessed pit beneath the rock, which was more than two meters high. She tucked herself into the pit and bit her tongue to keep herself from fainting.

She took out some external wound medicine from her spatial storage, sprinkled it on the wound, and wrapped it with a clean cloth. After barely finishing bandaging the wound, Chang Dongning rested for about half an hour. The wound was still stinging, but she didn't pay much attention to it. She took out a jade bottle from her spatial storage, which contained mild and nourishing royal jelly. She opened the jade bottle and took a sip.

That sip of honey almost made her leave the mission world, and she barely managed to suppress the nausea with some ordinary water from the previous mission world.

It seems that the things from the cultivation world can't be used in this world. The power systems of the two worlds are incompatible. This body cannot accept things containing spiritual energy, or rather, this world cannot accommodate things containing spiritual energy.

Her space is mostly filled with things from the cultivation world. It seems she needs to find some time to organize the space, putting aside the unusable items and freeing up some space to collect things from this world.

In the original owner's memories, this world had spatial abilities and spatial sacs. Spatial abilities needed to be awakened, and spatial sacs were technological products that were said to be very expensive.

Looking at the time, Chang Dongning took out two more ordinary pastries and ate them. The real cause of death of this body was not external injury, but radiation sickness and malnutrition. External injury and high radiation area were just the trigger. The non-radioactive sweets quickly provided this body with the energy to enter the base before the gathering army returned.

It's not bad. The Chang family lives inside the base, not in the shantytown outside. Although it's the outermost area, at least it's within the protective shield, which filters out most of the radiation.

Whether we can stay in the safe zone next year depends on luck.

The houses in the safe zone aren't free. Even if you buy a house, you have to pay a safety tax every year. Chang's father was a genetic warrior, so that safety tax was no problem for him. Later, Chang's father and mother passed away one after another, but Chang's father's savings and the family's belongings supported the safety tax and expenses for two years.

If she doesn't accumulate enough safety tax to reach 350 points by next spring, she will be kicked out of the safe zone.

There are surveillance cameras and frequent patrols on the roads within the safe zone. The shantytown has nothing, and patrols won't go there unless there's a major accident. If a woman with a child goes to the shantytown, she'll be reduced to ashes.

Because of the protective shield, the safe zones in the wasteland world don't have tall buildings. The tallest buildings are government centers and trading halls, all three stories high. Anyway, the population is now less than one-tenth, there's plenty of space, and each household is a detached house with a small yard.

The Chang family lived on the outskirts of the south gate of the safe zone. Following the original owner's memories, Chang Dongning returned home. A thin, small child sat obediently on a small stool playing with pebbles. When he saw her return, he timidly called out, "Mom."

"Okay, go ahead and play." Before returning, she had already taken off the original owner's outer garment and wrapped it around her arm. Between the gauze and the outer garment, she also wrapped a circle of fresh-smelling grass leaves to prevent the smell of blood on her body from attracting unnecessary trouble.

Back home, she removed the protective gear from her arm, and the smell of blood immediately filled the air. Although the medicine from the cultivation world had barely stopped the bleeding, it kept stinging at the wound. She decided to wash off the medicine and replace it with the healing potion from this world.

"Mom, blood, pain?" Chang Xuan stood nervously at the door, his eyes brimming with tears that were about to fall.

"It's alright, it's alright, a little medicine will do, don't be afraid." Chang Dongning comforted the child. The little child was very thin, and because he was so thin, his head looked unusually large, while his face was round, which looked particularly disproportionate.

The child hadn't had a good few days since birth. Just a month after birth, the father passed away. The original owner was so heartbroken that her breast milk dried up. In the wasteland world, there are birth subsidies, but formula is a luxury. The safe zone government provides infant nutrition supplements, but in limited quantities. The Chang family lost their most capable earner and couldn't afford to buy it themselves, so they could only feed the child until he was half full.

When the child was learning to speak, his mother fell ill. The original owner was too busy making a living to teach him, which resulted in his speech being somewhat disjointed.

After using up the last of the medicine at home to treat the wound, Chang Dongning took a stroll around the house.

The Chang family's courtyard was small, with two small bedrooms, a storage room, and another room that had been divided in two, serving as both a kitchen and a bathroom. The courtyard was about 100 square meters, with a simple woodshed built in one corner and the rest of the floor made of rammed stone, which was perfect for drying things.

Why would someone with nothing to their name want to have a child?

Chang Dongning looked down at the child who had been following her, and thought to herself, "Why bother?"

The original owner's pregnancy was an accident. She was taken to the inner district black market to trade goods by a fake friend, and was pulled into a small dark room by a genetically awakened warrior. She had a wild night and didn't even see the other person's face clearly. She ran home without telling her parents the truth.

In the wasteland, survival is difficult, and there is a high tolerance for casual relationships. The original owner did not think losing her virginity was a big deal, but she found out she was pregnant a few months later.

The government encourages childbirth, and hospitals do not provide abortion services. There are other options, after all. An adult in this world can die at any time, let alone an unborn child.

But at that time, Chang's father was still alive, and the family's income was decent. In addition, there was a maternity allowance, so the family of three discussed it and decided to keep the child. As we all know, the stronger the gene warrior, the less likely it is to have offspring, but once a child is born, the chance of that child naturally awakening is very high.

Chang Xuan was born amidst this anticipation.

Unfortunately, there are no signs of awakening yet. Chang Dongning believes that even if the child is talented, he will not awaken if he is always hungry.
