While others are struggling to survive and slaying zombies in the apocalypse, I'm hoarding supp

"Researcher Bai, this is base property. You can't move it without approval," a staff member carefully stopped Bai Yu.

Bai Yu held the machine in both hands. "This is what I researched, and I bought the materials. Why can't I move it?"

The staff were in a dilemma; they had no idea where this thing came from.

But they are in charge of all the goods in this machine. If something is lost without approval, what will they say when they are questioned by their superiors?

"Researcher Bai, if you want to move out, you must have the approval slip. I can't let you move out without the slip."

Bai Yu has been working at the research institute, and every time he develops something new, someone else will take over the work.

She had no idea what other procedures were involved.

She handled everything from the research methods to the materials for this machine.

When she first started preparing for this project, no one believed in her, and no one was willing to help her.

She wanted some rare materials, but they wouldn't give them to her; she had to find them herself at her own expense.

This thing belongs to her, so why can't she move it now?

When Bai Yu gets stubborn, not even ten oxen could stop him.

As soon as Cheng arrived, he saw her hunched over the machine, locked in a standoff with someone, and rushed over.

They pulled away the people who wanted to attack Bai Yu.

"What are you doing?"

Cheng Rang was a soldier before the apocalypse, and experienced many things after the apocalypse.

A stern face can still intimidate people.

Although the staff didn't recognize him, they were still intimidated by his imposing manner and let go of Bai Yu's hand.

As soon as Bai Yu saw Cheng Rang, he immediately said to him happily, "Cheng Rang, look, this is the machine I researched, but they won't let me take it with me."

Cheng was having a headache; the scene was exactly as he had imagined.

"You can't move this."

Cheng Rang tried to persuade her, but Bai Yu was puzzled. "Why? I researched this, I built it. Why can't I take it? Didn't Cheng Rang tell me before that what's mine is mine and I can't let others take it?"

"It's true that you researched and built these things, but theoretically these things belong to the base. You are a researcher hired by the base, so the ownership of these things does not belong to you."

"Why doesn't it belong to me? I built the building, I found the materials, and the research institute was just temporarily holding them for me. I didn't give them away."

Bai Yu's eyes were red with anger. She couldn't understand why something she had built from start to finish didn't belong to her.

Cheng Rang wanted to persuade her further, but when he heard Bai Yu say that she had found all the materials, he immediately stopped.

"What did you say?"

Luo Ning leaned against the outside with her arms crossed. "She said she found all the materials. Are you deaf?"

Luo Ning only remembered later that in his previous life, each base had an intelligent disinfection zone, which was continuously being upgraded.

However, the intelligent disinfection device stagnated after its third generation upgrade, as a new type of virus would appear every now and then in the post-apocalyptic world.

These viruses require constantly upgraded disinfection equipment to disinfect them, and once the disinfection equipment stops being upgraded...

People then learned that the person who researched the disinfection device had been arrested. After investigation, it was discovered that the disinfection device was not researched by him at all, but by someone else.

But the person who actually researched disinfection equipment was already dead.

At first, she didn't realize what was going on, but after hearing what Bai Yu said, she immediately understood that she was the one who was actually researching disinfection devices.

Cheng Rang grabbed Bai Yu's shoulder and asked, "You just said that you found all the materials for this machine."

Bai Yu nodded, "Yes, it took me a lot of effort to find the materials. I spent all my money and it still wasn't enough. I even borrowed from my colleagues, and I still haven't paid them back."

Bai Yu thought about how every time she received her salary, she had to give a portion to the ordinary people affected by the disaster and return a portion to her colleagues, so she didn't have many points left.

Fortunately, the research institute provided room and board, and the few points she had were just enough for her.

Upon hearing her words, Cheng Rang's face darkened immediately, but he still softened his tone and asked.

"Aren't these materials provided by the research institute? Why are you going to find them yourself?"

"You could apply before the apocalypse, but after the apocalypse, supplies are very scarce, and many documents simply cannot be obtained. Xiaokang said I had to find these documents myself, and it took me a lot of effort to find them."

Bai Yu lowered her head, pestering Luo Ning to find out how to control superpowers, hoping to find a specific method as soon as possible so that every superpowered person could use it.

After that, they will be able to ensure their safety when collecting supplies outside, and they will be able to collect more supplies. Then she can apply directly for what she wants.

By exchanging his current crystal core points for future free applications, Bai Yu considered himself to be very good at calculating and to have gotten a great deal.

Cheng Rang's eyes turned cold. Every acquaintance he encountered now was a comfort to him.

What's more, she's the little girl he's protected since she was a child. She might be bullied without him even knowing it.

Cheng Rang was both angry and resentful. He was angry that the little girl had been sold out and was still happily counting money for them, and he resented those people for bullying a simple and honest little girl. How could they be so heartless?

Luo Ning looked into Bai Yu's eyes; they were indeed very pure.

The fact that someone like her has survived to this day in the apocalypse is entirely due to her good luck and her foolishness, which prevents her from blocking anyone's path.

Otherwise, they would have been wandering around in some unknown corner long ago.

Cheng Rang grabbed Bai Yu's hand. "Come on, take me to your boss."

Bai Yu looked at the disinfection device with reluctance, "But, the disinfection device..."

"That's alright, just leave it here. I promise, no one can take what belongs to you."

Looking at Cheng Rang's dark face, Fu Xing suddenly realized that he seemed to have come to life.

Having gained some popularity, although he couldn't tell anything on the surface before, he was like a walking corpse inside, numb to everything.

But then again, aren't they all like walking corpses? How can they adapt to a scene like this, watching their loved ones and friends turn into zombies right in front of them? How can they find peace with that?

Live well—such a simple blessing, yet many people can't do it; they even wish they were the ones who died.

Bai Yu looked at Luo Ning, who nodded. "I have plenty of time now, it doesn't matter if I take a little longer."

Hearing her words, Bai Yu smiled and let Cheng Rang pull her away.

Xiao Jie looked at Cheng Rang, thought for a moment, and then removed him from his list of threats.

But seeing him holding that girl's hand, he felt a little envious.

But then he thought, he couldn't stand it if she were bullied like that.

So he wanted her to be even more capable and intelligent, so that she would always be the one bullying others, and no one could bully her.
