Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 844 Extreme Apocalypse 8

Seeing how stupid they were, Brother Lu's eyes blazed with anger: "Useless trash, all of you climb up! If you can't manage, drag the two of them down with you."

Some people, in pain, let go and sank into the water, while others took the opportunity to pull the two people's legs, trying to drag them into the water as well.

Li Xinyan appeared weaker than Gao Mingcheng, and soon someone made a move against her.

"Let me go, let me go."

She took a baseball bat and hit the person who was holding onto her ankle with all her might, but the person held on tightly.

Upon seeing that she was about to use a knife to slash someone, the person immediately let go and then switched hands to continue pulling.

"Xinyan, are you alright?"

Upon hearing the noise, Gao Mingcheng wanted to help, but his foot was also grabbed, and he couldn't get away for a moment.

He could only speed up his escape from these people, and in his haste, he inadvertently gave someone an opportunity to help him out.

Just before falling into the water, Gao Mingcheng immediately sat down to steady himself.

Because the watermelon knife wasn't long enough, Li Xinyan had to bend down to stab the person.

The people in the water were waiting for this opportunity, and they seized the chance to forcefully pull the person into the water.

Once Li Xinyan was in the water, she couldn't hold onto the baseball bat and knife; she had to swim upstream.

Before she even surfaced, she felt someone coming to grab her.

She could only swim to other places and play chasing games with people.

After Gao Mingcheng finally dealt with two people, three others continued to harass him, and Li Xinyan was exhausted in the water.

Ruan Chutong and Li Yanjing finally returned. After packing their things and swimming up, they realized something was wrong.

After looking closely, it became clear that everyone in the water except Li Xinyan was a stranger.

Li Yanjing gestured to her, indicating that she would deal with the larger group on the other side.

When asked to help Li Xinyan, Ruan Chutong nodded.

She swam up to the person chasing Li Xinyan, grabbed his neck, and twisted his neck with her hands.

When Li Xinyan realized there was no movement behind her, she turned around and felt a tightness around her waist.

Before she could even resist, she had already floated to the surface of the water.

"Xinyan, are you alright?"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Li Xinyan realized that Ruan Chutong had returned.

"Sister Tong, you're back! Where's that person from earlier?"

"He's drowning and sinking." Ruan Chutong climbed onto the speedboat and pulled Li Xinyan up with her.

As they were talking, Li Yanjing and Gao Mingcheng worked together to take care of the remaining three people.

After the four people sat on the speedboat, Li Xinyan realized: "There's still one person here, and the kayak is gone too. He actually got away."

"Well, it was a close call today. Your clothes are all soaked. Let's go back first," Gao Mingcheng said, panting.

He was also a bit exhausted and felt that he was still lacking in exercise.

Li Yanjing went to start the assault boat: "What just happened?"

“That group saw that we had a speedboat and supplies, and that there were only two of us, so they got the idea to gang up on us. Luckily you came back in time.”

Li Xinyan was still shaken, but she didn't forget to ask about the results: "Sister Tong, did you find everything down there?"

"Found it. We've taken all the diving equipment from the store."

"That's good. I almost drowned just now because I was too exhausted."

Upon hearing this, Li Yanjing said, "Go back and train hard."

"I understand, I understand. Today I know how important physical strength is. I should also learn some self-defense techniques so that next time I encounter this situation, I can beat them to a pulp."

Ruan Chutong almost laughed at what she said. It's good to be a broad-minded person; at least you're less likely to be traumatized.

Back in the residential area, the group still had to climb thirty floors.

Li Xinyan was completely dejected: "I feel like these legs don't belong to me anymore."

Ruan Chutong pulled her aside: "Give it a massage tonight to improve blood circulation, and the soreness will lessen a bit tomorrow."

"I want to soak my feet, but there's no water available right now so I can't boil any."

While rainwater can be collected and used, boiling it consumes too much fire and resources.

"I collected several portable gas stoves and several boxes of gas canisters today. We can boil some water to wash ourselves and soak our feet."

Li Xinyan was initially happy, then hesitated: "Really? Won't that be a waste? Shouldn't we save it for cooking?"

"It's alright. You forgot that I also collected a lot of furniture and other items that can be started with fire. We can use them to cook meals later."

"That's great! I'll splurge on a foot bath tonight, haha."

"Ah."

When they arrived at her doorstep, Xu Zhenzhu opened the door and saw the group: "Why are your clothes wet again? Did you go swimming? Go change your clothes quickly. I'll make you some ginger tea to warm you up and prevent you from catching a cold."

Li Xinyan happily shared their harvest of the day: "Aunt Xu, we collected a lot of supplies, and also a lot of diving equipment. We can go into the water to retrieve supplies in the future."

"Good, good, you're all doing a great job. Come in quickly and go change your clothes."

Ruan Chutong spoke up, "Mom, could you help me boil some rainwater? We need to wash ourselves and soak our feet."

“No problem, I’ll go burn it right away. I collected a lot of rainwater during the day.”

Li Dayuan also went into Li Yanjing's room: "Was it alright going out today?"

"We encountered a group of people trying to steal a speedboat on the way, but nothing serious happened."

Li Yanjing took off the wet clothes that were sticking to his body, revealing his muscular upper body covered in water.

He used a dry towel to dry his body before putting on his clothes, waiting to wipe himself with water and then change into his pajamas.

Hearing his words, Li Dayuan frowned: "How did the order fall apart so quickly? No one dared to do this just two days ago."

After saying that, he added worriedly, "How about we take a day off tomorrow? Let's not go out."

"Dad, we can only intensify our training. More and more people are going out to find supplies now, and if we don't go, we'll fall behind."

Knowing he had a point, Li Dayuan sighed.

"Okay, I'll go tomorrow too, so Yan Yan and Tong Tong can rest at home."

Li Yanjing didn't agree immediately: "You'll have to ask them about that."

Upon hearing this, Li Dayuan glared at him: "Aren't you worried about your two younger sisters? You still want to take them out."

"It's not that I'm not worried, it's just that I can't persuade them."

With the new space, it's very convenient for Ruan Chutong to store things.

I don't think I can persuade her, and she's been more aware of the crisis than anyone else from the very beginning.

"How could that be? Tongtong and Yanyan are both so obedient."

Li Yanjing didn't try to dissuade her: "Why don't you give it a try later?"

As expected, when Li Dayuan suggested that Ruan Chutong and Li Xinyan take a day off...

Neither of them agreed, so Ruan Chutong directly told the two elders that she now possessed a spatial ability and that collecting resources would be much more efficient than if they did it themselves.

"So, Mom, Uncle Li, if I go, I can collect more things."

Upon hearing this, Li Dayuan and Xu Zhenzhu were both surprised, but also happy for her.

Seeing that they were only focused on having fun, Li Yanjing didn't forget to remind them.

"Dad, Aunt Xu, we can't let anyone else know about this, otherwise Chu Tong's situation, including ours, will be very dangerous."
