Apocalypse: The Supporting Actress Made a Comeback-Chapter 731 - 391 The man of Qi fears the sky falling
Chapter 731: 391 The man of Qi fears the sky falling
Walking out of the conference room, Qiu Hongsheng kept looking at his son with concern. After hesitating for a moment, he still couldn’t help himself and leaned in to ask worriedly, "Yiming... this place is too far from Beishi City, and who knows how many dangers there might be on the road. Do you really plan on going?"
After speaking, he carefully watched Qiu Yiming. Seeing that his son was unwilling to utter a word, his worry deepened. In truth, to resolve the food crisis, it wasn’t necessary to go all the way to Beishi City. Just not far from Market, there were vast fields. Of course, he knew that except for the safely guarded fields within the Base, other lands were most likely already abandoned and their conditions, corrupted by the zombies, were unknown.
In Qiu Hongsheng’s view, going to the Beishi Base was not a good idea at all. Even if it was better developed there, after their arrival, they would be subject to others’ control. Better to stay in the Market Base where they had more freedom.
However, currently faced with a food crisis, they must find a way to secure food!
Qiu Yiming had been silent until he returned to his own place. Then he suddenly said, "The Market Base is no longer a place to stay; it’s not a place for us to linger."
Upon hearing this, Qiu Hongsheng’s face changed drastically. He looked at Qiu Yiming, puzzled, "What do you mean by that? Why can’t we stay for long? Don’t just leave me hanging... Yiming, tell me the truth, have you discovered something?"
As Qiu Hongsheng spoke, he kept looking at Qiu Yiming, only to see Qiu Yiming staring out of the window. He felt puzzled and followed Qiu Yiming’s gaze outside, but he saw nothing out of the ordinary. The same old houses and streets; nothing was amiss. He looked again at Qiu Yiming, and suddenly realized the depth in Qiu Yiming’s gaze. He wasn’t just looking at the houses and streets outside the window, but... at something far beyond.
Qiu Hongsheng couldn’t understand what his son was looking at and thought he was thinking about Fang Yuxin again; this wasn’t a pleasant thought for him. Recalling what Qiu Yiming had said during the meeting, his resentment towards the departed Fang Yuxin grew even heavier, and he couldn’t help but ask, "Yiming, what did you mean just now? Make yourself clear!" ƒгeeweɓn૦vel.com
Only then did Qiu Yiming withdraw his gaze to look at Qiu Hongsheng, saying, "Dad, have you never considered that nowadays the animals on land and birds in the sky are mutating. So... what about those fish in the water?"
Qiu Hongsheng shuddered momentarily, but after giving it some thought, he frowned and said, "I understand your implication, but... aren’t we worrying without cause? What does it matter if creatures in the water can mutate? They can’t come on land. How could they pose a threat?"
Qiu Yiming’s lips slowly curled into a cold smile, "What if the sea level rises? Market is right by the sea, and it’s very likely that the fish there have already mutated. Once the sea level rises and submerges Market, the Market Base will have no chance of surviving!"
Qiu Hongsheng still found it hard to believe. If that were true, then the situation would be terrifying! Could such a horrifying disaster truly happen?
Qiu Yiming saw the hesitation in him and added more fuel to the fire, "Dad, haven’t you noticed? There have been a particularly large number of natural disasters this year, especially after the apocalypse; several disasters have occurred already. Although Market has not been affected yet, once the sea level rises, Market could very well be submerged. By then, no one here will be spared!"
Listening to his words, Qiu Hongsheng’s expression became increasingly grim. Finally, he sighed and said, "You’ve wanted to go to Beishi for a while now, haven’t you? You didn’t dare before because you weren’t confident in your power, but now that you are a Third-level Peak superpower user, you want to go to Beishi City, right?"
Qiu Yiming, without speaking, made his meaning quite evident; he indeed wanted to go to Beishi City. Fang Yuxin had originally left with Bai Ye, so she must have gone to Beishi City with him. This meant that as long as he went there, he would surely find Fang Yuxin!
Now, his feelings for Fang Yuxin had become extremely complex; intense love and hatred intertwined, making him want to find Fang Yuxin and keep her by his side, yet at the same time, wishing he could destroy her himself! So, he was eager to leave the Market Base for the Beishi Base.
However, the words he had just spoken to Qiu Hongsheng were not concocted merely for the sake of going to Beishi Base; he truly was worried! Market was close to the sea; if the sea level rose and submerged the Market Base, there would be no hope for the people inside to survive.
