As for the temperature regulator, in the original owner's memory, the summer was extremely hot, with the highest temperature reaching 80 or 90 degrees Celsius at noon and 50 or 60 degrees Celsius at night, making it impossible to sleep.

So, the ordinary people here have also mutated, otherwise how could they withstand the high temperature of 80 or 90 degrees?

After bringing Chang Xuan home, she went out again, sold three moderately irradiated beans, earned 95 points, bought some seasonings, and some flour.

The flour in the wasteland was brown and had a strange smell. She mixed some white flour from her space, made a few flatbreads, and stir-fried the remaining lichen-like vegetables to solve her lunch problem.

In the afternoon, Chang Dongning spent the whole afternoon making crossbows. These things are lifesavers in critical moments, and the more the merrier.

Once she has money, she'll go to the weapons shop to order a batch of weapons made with better materials, and she might even be able to buy an energy gun.

Around 4 PM, I received a message from Minister Zhang on my watch, informing me of the time and meeting point for tomorrow's data collection.

This was the first time someone had contacted her through a watch since she came into this world. Chang Dongning looked at the message twice before replying.

This isn't because the original owner was unpopular; this is the daily life of most people in the wasteland. They have to fight tooth and nail to survive every day, so where would they find the energy to socialize? Not to mention strangers, they don't even communicate much with their own family.

The original owner had a lot of contacts, mostly classmates from school, but since she became pregnant with Chang Xuan, she hasn't been in contact with them much.

The next morning, after leaving breakfast for Chang Xuan, I went to the meeting point according to Minister Zhang's instructions.

"Miss Chang, you've arrived."

"Minister Zhang, are you going too?" Isn't he a staff member of the trading center?

"I'm off today, and I'm going to collect samples with my family." Minister Zhang led her to the car where her family members were sitting.

The things she handed over were clearly good ingredients that could be used as staple foods, and Minister Zhang, who received the first-hand information, naturally wouldn't miss them.

"Oh, has that thing been named yet?" Chang Dongning felt it was a bit inconvenient that it didn't have a name.

"Nut tofu," Minister Zhang said. Actually, the safe zone's plan for this is to use it as a nutritional supplement, and the method will not be announced in the short term.

"Oh, do we need to hand in what we collected today?"

"unnecessary."

The official vehicles from the safe zone were much better than the previous bus; the ride was much smoother.

"Whose family are you? You look unfamiliar." The middle-aged woman sitting next to Chang Dongning asked curiously, "My name is Zhao Yuan, I'm the wife of the deputy company commander who's leading the team today."

"I'm not a family member; I'm the one who handed over this nut tofu." Everyone in the car was a family member of the soldiers, so her identity wasn't a secret.

"Oh? Wow, you're really amazing! I heard the method is quite complicated. How did you come up with it?" Zhao Yuan's voice was loud.

The other family members in the car all looked over, including Minister Zhang.

She had prepared this answer long ago, thinking that someone would ask when she submitted it.

"It's just a gut feeling, sometimes, a sense that something not on the record is edible."

"Have you handed in anything before?"

"No, this intuition is sometimes right and sometimes wrong. I've tried collecting unfamiliar things before, but I made my mother's whole body covered in bumps after eating them, so I never dared to try again. This is the first time I've handed over a new species."

Anyway, the original owner's family background and resume are easy to find out, they're very transparent. The reason I didn't dare to try before is because I'm poor.

Minister Zhang interjected, "Was this intuition something you developed after taking the awakening drug?"

"It doesn't seem so." Chang Dongning gave an ambiguous answer. She still wanted the awakening potion to take the blame for the space. In such a difficult world, she didn't want to keep the space a secret forever.

Disguised as having spatial abilities, she checked information about awakening potions and abilities on her watch. Awakening an ability requires a large amount of energy; otherwise, many situations will occur. One special situation is being in a semi-awakened state, where the ability works intermittently.

She wanted to use the space as cover, a space ability that worked intermittently, which could both explain her failed awakening of the potion back then and prevent her from being trapped by certain forces.

Zhao Yuan's family was well-off, and she had also tried the awakening potion, but the awakening failed.

"I also failed to awaken, but after taking the medicine, my physical condition seems to have improved."

Chang Dongning made his expression a little confused, but didn't say anything, and instead started talking about the collection.

Ten minutes later, she leaned back in her seat, closed her eyes to rest, and stopped talking.

Upon arrival at the destination, we passed through the bean field and headed straight for the forest. Because the authorities were collecting new species, the buses in the bean field area had stopped, and there was no one there. The people in the safe zone were used to it; there were only a few buses that traveled back and forth all year round, rotating between different collection sites. If a vehicle didn't come here, it would go to another collection site, so we would just collect in a different place.

However, the family members who came with the car today started testing as soon as they entered the bean field. Chang Dongning also followed the crowd and tested some beans, but her main purpose today was to go into the oak forest to take a look, so she didn't linger and followed the security team into the forest not long after they entered.

"Giving up after harvesting just one bean?" Company Commander Yan Xin greeted her.

"The beans are right there. You can get them tested whenever you want. I've been watching this grove for a long time, but I don't dare to go too far in when I'm alone."

Yan Xin nodded: "Be careful, don't let it out of our sight."

Some people may not become gene warriors or superhumans, but some are naturally intuitive or very lucky, and these people often get some unexpected opportunities.

There's no harm in befriending someone like that. As for whether this Ms. Chang, who has kept a low profile for twenty years, is actually that kind of person, who knows?

Chang Dongning knew this was for her own good, so he smiled and nodded, then picked up the testing shears and walked around under a few trees nearby.

Today, all the people who came were genetic warriors, and they brought all the necessary tools. Some of them have already climbed up the towering trees using folding ladders.

According to common sense, immature acorns shouldn't be used to make acorn tofu; mature ones would fall off. But Chang Dongning didn't say anything. Everything in this world has changed; what if?

There must be mushrooms in this secluded forest, right?

Hmm? It seems she really did have a stroke of luck. Just as she thought of that, she saw a cluster of mushrooms, the very common oyster mushrooms.

"Drip, moderate radiation, consume in moderation."

"Drip, low radiation, edible."

"Drip, high radiation level, not for consumption."

Chang Dongning tested all the mushrooms in this area and found two with moderate radiation and one with low radiation.

She then checked with her watch. "Beep, common fungi, moderate radiation, edible."

This type of oyster mushroom has been included in the catalog.
