A Filthy Rich Hamster in the Apocalypse

Chapter 22.1 – WuYi's about to reach Fengcheng

Had to divide this chapter into two because it was so long ()Just this half is already 4k words.

Xiao Wuyi opened his eyes and glanced at the others around him in the dark of the night before sliding into the small sleeping bag, forming a large bulge on the lower half of it.

Taking advantage of everyones lack of attention, Xiao WuYi moved into his space with a single thought.

Inside the valley space which had green grass and blue sky.

Xiao WuYi squatted beside the field, his eyes gleaming as he looked at the fresh, green sprouts all over the ground. He couldnt help but stretch out his fingers to touch the young tender leaves, only to see the leaves shake and the seedlings grow a few centimeters tall in a flash.

Faced with such a miraculous scene, Xiao WuYis eyes couldnt help but widen as his mouth made an although-I-dont-understand-it-seems-pretty-awesome sound. He couldnt help but bow his head to look at his little hands.

He found out that this little hamster warrior seemed to have another incredible magic power!

To test it out, the young boy changed back to his little hamster form and quickly ran using his tiny legs, weaving in between the tiny sprouts.

Wherever he passed, all crops blossomed and bore fruit at a rapid speed.

After running several laps around the field, the little hamster was completely exhausted. He laid on the ground and panted softly, not wanting to move an inch. He saw a green leaf drooping down beside his mouth and without thinking, he took a bite with a chomp.

The refreshing and sweet taste made the little hamster squirm with happiness. He was immediately filled with vigor and energy.

Standing on the field ridge, he surveyed the entire field and saw the flourishing yield of fruits and vegetables hanging on branches and stems and the ears of wheat everywhere. The little hamster couldnt help raising his head and looking into the distance. Picturing Nie Xiaos portrait on the empty space, he earnestly clenched his two small claws into fists.

Daddy, you dont have to worry about your baby not being able to support this family anymore.

Finally, the hard-working little hamster harvested all the mature crops with his consciousness and then transferred them to the space with dark grid compartments to store and keep them fresh.

After all of this was done, the little hamster changed back into his human form and exited the space. He returned to the raised bulge at the end of the small sleeping bag and slowly popped his head outside to scout the surroundings before properly lying down and sleeping obediently.

In order to feed everyone, the little hamster did quite a lot.

Early the next morning, when Xiao WuYi was woken up by everyone, his sleepy and dozed off look made the surrounding crowd utterly confused.

It took a while before Xiao WuYi managed to properly wake up. He remembered what had happened in his space last night and immediately cupped his cheeks and looked inside his two little storages. Confirming that his hard work didnt disappear, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing that it was clearly not a dream, Xiao WuYi couldnt stop feeling happy again. He cupped his face giddily as his mind wandered about, causing his head full of bedhead to shake alongit looked extremely adorable.

Wu Wenyu couldnt hold herself back and all of a sudden stretched out her evil claws to rub him Ahhhh, my awesome nephew is so cute! Awewuwu!

Im obviously an elder brother! Xiao WuYi protected his little face and escaped the devils claws, complaining very unhappily.

Everyone saw this scene of the two being energetic so early in the morning and their eyes curved into a smile.

The group packed up their camp with a relaxed mood and after a simple meal, they set off again.

Advancing towards the direction of Fengcheng.

Kang Kang, Nana, and several other kids were added to the team. Together with the cute Xiao WuYi, the whole team looked more like a big family taking a touryoung and old alike living together.

Among the kids they picked up, little Nana liked to follow behind Xiao WuYi the most. Even her twin brother Kang Kang had somewhat fallen out of favor.

In this regard, Kang Kang was constantly eating vinegar.

Little Nana didnt know why she wanted to get close to Xiao WuYi. She could only hold a bunch of small flowers and appease Kang Kang who was eating vinegar. With her brother acting like a spoiled child, she assured him, Brother, rest assured. Nana still likes you the most. Its just that I feel very comfortable when Im next to Brother WuYi. Look, my flowers are blooming beautifully!

Kang Kang took the flowers which her sister had handed to coax him. He embarrassedly pouted his lips, and spoke to expose her frankly, I think you just feel that Brother WuYis looks are the best! Youre still saying hes a flower fairy but you obviously have a crush on him!

Nana suddenly couldnt say anything to refute it. She secretly glanced at Xiao WuYis face before blushing in secret, whispering in a very quiet voice, It goes without saying that Brother WuYi is good-looking. Hes just like a Royal Highness, Prince of a Fairy Kingdom!

The people around them listened to the lovely dialogue between the two siblings and were suddenly all brought to laughter.

Little Wuyi was also very clever. With small ears upright, he heard Nanas whispering voice from afar and couldnt help but touch his small face. For the first time ever, he was made aware that his appearance was actually good-looking to other people.

He always thought that he had to be tall and manly like his father to be considered good-looking.

Finally, having realized the correct attractiveness index, the little hamster couldnt help but cover his face as he turned pink with steam, feeling shy.

If this was the case, then Daddy will also like what he looks like, even now

Chi! This baby couldnt wait to see Daddy.

***

At this moment, Harbin Airport.

Nie Xiao and his men have already completed the final inspection and overhaul of the airplane, thoroughly confirming that theres no problem and that everything is ready. All that was left was to prepare for flight and take off.

The troops had already selected candidates to send to the capital. Among them were Major General Wu Qingfeng and Luo Yunhai from the border town. It was only then that Nie Xiao and the others were made aware that the two were actually ability users.

Wu Qingfengs ability was Flying Flowers. He could summon countless bright-red, fresh rose petals with a wave of his hand, using the flowers as knives and its thin petals as blades. Together with his military identity, it appeared romantic and sentimental and he could even be called a veritable Major General Flying Flower.

Luo Yunhais ability was Sandification which has something to do with the earth system. Any form of ground he touched could become flowing dark sand, which was exceptionally dangerous. It was precisely because of this ability that he was able to successfully escape from the border town with his comrades-in-arms.

In this regard, Nie Xiao and the others who didnt notice anything strange about the two since the beginning could only lament with the phrase: Deeply hiding, never showing.

Sure enough, those who could survive the apocalypse would most likely not be an ordinary person.

Wu Qingfeng was actually quite embarrassed to show his ability but when his gaze fell on the petals that fell in his hand, his eyes couldnt help but show a bit of tenderness and nostalgia.

My ability is probably the doing of my deceased wifes spirit, making me a big man do such a feminine thing as flying flowers. She liked flowers the most when she was still alive. If she were still here, I reckon everyday would be noisy just so I could give her a rain of fresh flowers. Wu Qingfeng said with a smile, the rim of his eyes suddenly turning red.

At that very moment, the flying flowers in the air had not the least bit of femininity, only the endless tenderness of a valiant man.

Nie Xiao and the others who were watching this scene became quiet. In this apocalypse, it was unknown how many such relationships had been broken. It was already a lucky thing to be alive.

After that brief episode, the group quickly got on the plane. Nie Xiao and Duan Wenyu entered the cockpit and immediately piloted the plane to fly towards the direction of the capital.

The planes huge rumbling caused everyone to look up at the sky.

In addition to Nie Xiao, Wu Qingfeng, and the others, some civilian survivors were also inside the huge passenger plane to go to the capital to find their loved ones. In account of their courage of wanting to go and search for people, Nie Xiao and the others took these people along.

In any case, they were all going the same route. Taking a group of people along is the same thing as taking just one person, the number doesnt matter.

Wu Wenqi sat inside the first-class cabin, looking pensive about what he was holding in his hand.

Beside him, Xiao Yan couldnt help but lean over and look at what he was holding in curiosity. She then saw that Wu Wenqi was holding a small stone, turning it into sand one second and turning it back to stone the next.

It was like playing with a piece of rubber clay.

Xiao Yan couldnt help but be shocked.

Wu Wenqi was strangely embarrassed as he smiled. He confessed in a low voice, I accidentally succeeded in copying Luo Yunhais ability, and now Im thinking if I can do other tricks using my earth system ability.

Youre awesome. Xiao Yan gave him a thumbs up.

The two continued their conversation and it didnt take long for Duan Wenyu to come out and for Wu Wenqi to substitute for him. Wu Wenqi walked into the cockpit and sat on the co-pilots seat.

Nie Xiao was looking at the sea of clouds in front of him, peacefully flying according to the route Duan Wenyu planned when he suddenly heard Wu Wenqi speak.

Boss, say, I cant do a flower rain, but can I do a sandstorm show for a person? Will it work?

Nie Xiao:

Outside the cockpit, Xiao Yan who was chatting with Ning Feng suddenly sneezed.

Aside, Ning Xiao Feng instantly told her facts, Jie, Wu Wenqi must be saying bad things about you to the boss!

Xiao Yan:

Duan Wenyu couldnt help but smack Ning Fengs head, smiling as he scolded, Dont cause trouble.

A few hours later, the plane successfully arrived at the airport on the outskirts of the capital. Unfortunately, its loud rumbling attracted hordes of zombies, hindering them from disembarking, and also simultaneously alerted the remaining survivors in the capital. 

Confronting the swarms of zombies in the airport, Nie Xiao and Wu Wenqi controlled their yokes without their faces changing in complexion. They rammed straight into the zombies and crushed their remains, gliding through them while landing.

Ning Xiao Feng hearing these crackling and rattling sounds made by the plane hull due to it ramming into the ground had his seat belt on and was leaning towards crazy angles due to inertia. He felt desperate and his heart was nearing a breakdown.

This fucking plane needs to be fucking fixed before it fixes my death instead!

Duan Wenyu couldnt help but touch Ning Xiao Fengs head and say with utmost pity and sympathy, Isnt this expected early on? Its already a blessing to be able to land safely. If it really cant be fixed, we can just change to another one!

There are many planes at the airport anyway.

Ning Fengs eyes were red as he listened to those cynical remarks that came from someone who stood while talking and never experienced the back pain. Looking at the zombies outside made him gnash his teeth in anger. These ghosts are to blame for getting in the way! This little master will blow them all up later.

Good boy, dont cry.

Urgh. Ahhhh, I cant stand this grievance!!!

It was also the others first time being on a plane with such an unstable landing. Fortunately, it was parked in the end and they couldnt help but feel relieved.

If they died in a flight landing accident, everything they had done so far wouldve all been for nothing.

The cockpits glass windshield had cracks spreading out like a web after the plane was parked. Nie Xiao and Wu Wenqi didnt stay idle and immediately broke through the glass and rushed out, using their upgraded abilities to knock down the zombies who approached them.

Duan Wenyu, Ning Feng, and Xiao Yan did not fall behind. They went out of the cabin to join in massacring the zombies.

At the side, Wu Qingfeng and Luo Yunhai saw these supreme abilities, and their hearts were incessantly shocked. These people said that the two of them werent honest because of concealing their abilities, but now, it seems that these people were the actual liars.

While everyone was fighting with the zombies in the airport, several green army pickup trucks suddenly arrived outside the airport.

The soldiers with live ammunition came down one after another for a rescue.

Nie Xiaos group flew the plane through the skies above the capital, and with the big movements coming from such a large battle, it made it difficult for them to ignore it. In this apocalyptic era, those who could manage to fly in an airplane are bound to be people who should not be trifled with.

The military in the capital was dispatched almost immediately to the airport to see the situation.

Nie Xiao and the others heard the sounds of fighting outside the airport. They all turned their heads to look in the sounds direction and saw the camouflage green that made people feel cordial and reassured from afar.

With the joint efforts of both parties, the zombies at the airport were temporarily wiped out. However, due to the immense rumbling of the airplane earlier, there was a continuous stream of zombies in the distance advancing vigorously towards their location.

With no other alternative, they could only abandon the airport here, get on the armys big pickup trucks, and speedily drive towards the capital base.

Sitting in the truck, Ning Feng couldnt help but look back at the direction of the airport and feel that this trip was a big loss. If they cant find a serviceable plane after they were done here, they would really have to walk back south.

In this regard, Wu Qingfeng and Luo Yunhai could only touch their noses in embarrassment.

Now that it had reached this point, Nie Xiao and the others could only go and follow the troops back to the base in the capital and take a look.

As the team captain of this operation, Yue Pengcheng took the initiative of introducing himself to Nie Xiao and the others so the two groups could establish rapport.

Nie Xiao and the others learned about the current situation of the capital through what Yue Pengcheng had told them and couldnt help recognizing that the capital was indeed deserving of being called the political center of China. In terms of base construction and rescue, their efficiency was faster than Harbins.

Its all thanks to Chief Xia, otherwise, the situation would be far from the present and we would still be in confusion like a sheet of loose sand. Yue Pengcheng smiled both in bitterness and gladness. The capital is one of the most densely populated cities in the country causing the density of zombies there to be more serious than that of other places.

Nie Xiao heard the words Chief Xia and couldnt help but recall his face that had often appeared on Huayang Satellite TV. Only a few people in the country wouldnt be able to recognize him.

Yue Pengcheng didnt hide it. He nodded and admitted it outright, his tone slightly heavy as he spoke. Hes precisely the one youre thinking of. At present, the chief is the only one our country has left.

Hearing this, the hearts of Nie Xiao and the others suddenly plummeted. The arrival of the apocalypse caused almost all of the leaders of the entire country to fall, what a huge loss.

How could this happen?

Wu Qingfeng was somewhat unable to accept it and his eyes couldnt help but turn red with tears. Anyone who grew up under Chinas banner would not be able to easily accept this fact.

Now everything at hand is practically being kept under control by Old Xia. The capital has not been completely stabilized and we have no time to contact the other regions. Chief Xia will certainly be very happy to see you.

Yue Pengcheng spoke from the bottom of his heart, This is probably the best news we would bring since the arrival of the apocalypse.

It didnt take long before the car drove into the capitals military area of command. This military area had been cleaned up and had become the capitals current survivor base.

When the pickup truck entered the base, a lot of survivors immediately noticed its arrival.

Then, a face familiar to the Chinese people walked out from behind the crowd.

Old Chief Xia was already very old. His gait was somewhat staggering as he walked towards everyone, holding someones arm for support. He looked at Nie Xiao and his group, smiling with gratitude. His kind, amiable face revealed the aura of someone occupying a high position for a long time.

Everyone looked at Old Chief Xia as he walked towards them. They couldve never imagined that one day, they would be received by the other party in this manner.

Wu Qingfeng and Luo Yunhai couldnt help but feel a little excited. They straightened their postures and performed the most standard salute. Nie Xiao and the others were not in the army, and couldnt perform like this but they also stood up straight to show respect.

Beside them, Ning Feng was also looking at the grey-haired Old Chief Xia. Seeing the others eyebrows locked in a permanent scrunch with the constant worries about the country and its people, Ning Feng suddenly wanted to make the old man happy somehow.

A line circulating the Internet came to mind and he immediately blurted it out.

Chief Xia, the survivors of Harbin are sending you a congratulatory message! Wishing you good health!

The solemn atmosphere was broken in an instant. Old Chief Xia was slightly taken aback with this witty remark. Looking at Ning Feng this energetic young man his countenance suddenly changed and he smiled, his eyes revealing affection for the younger generation.

The worry lines between his eyebrows disappeared in an instant.

The congratulatory message has been received.

The news that Harbin was already building a base was indeed the best and most exciting news that Old Chief Xiao had heard during these past days.

The national communications network was still paralyzed, the capital had not yet settled in, and other countless matters were weighing on him. But even if he was worried about the circumstances in other regions, he didnt have the ability to contact them.

Now that a region has initiated contact, even the other ordinary survivors in the base couldnt help but feel excited and encouraged.

The civilian survivors came to the capital from Harbin to look for their loved ones, and fortunately, they found them right at the capitals base. The scenes of their reunions moved everyone to tears and brought a touch of hope to everyone.

Nie Xiao and the others communicated with Old Chief Xia and exchanged bilateral information.

Old Chief Xias ability was known to everyone.

Looking closer at this base that was beginning to take shape, each and everyone had their own duties and everything was in order. Everyone knew the reason for this and sighed even more for Old Chief Xiaos hard work.

I actually like my sound transmission ability. Before the apocalypse, I was always afraid that my voice would only reach the surface and wouldnt be able to arrive until the innermost layers, but now I am completely not afraid. Everyone can hear what I say no matter how far away. Chief Xia couldnt help but say this with a smile. At that very moment, an officer suddenly entered the room.

Even while talking with Nie Xiao and the others, the old chief didnt forget to use his ability to spread the word and arrange various affairs of the base.

Why the capital was like what it was now was not completely without reason.

Its a pity that my voice can only be transmitted around this small area. It cant be transmitted further into other regions. A shame, really, we couldve done so much more with it. Old Xia said sadly in regret.

At this point, Nie Xiao admired Old Xiao practicality from the bottom of his heart and after hearing this, he finally couldnt help but console him, Actually you, sir, have already done a very good job.

Chief Xia sighed sadly, and no longer continued this topic, instead, he looked at Nie Xiao and the few other people with him and said with a smile, Then lets continue, are you intending on staying in the base? There are many, many matters that I can arrange for you to work on!

The identity of Nie Xiao and others being mercenaries had been exposed, but Chief Xia didnt mind this one bit. In this era, capable people with strong survival abilities were what the country was most lacked.

Although they also wanted to share some of Old Xiaos heavy burdens, they still could not set aside Wu Wenyu and Xiao WuYi, and could only shake their heads to decline.

Grandpa Xia, we have to go back to the South to find someone! When we find them, well come back to help you at once. Ning Feng said kindly to Old Chief Xiao, but soon after, his face couldnt help but show bitterness. But you might have to wait a little longer because we dont have an airplane.

Old Chief Xia had already understood early on that these people had set their sights somewhere else and he doesnt have such feelings of retention for them. He smiled and said, Going to the South is also fine, its convenient that I also had planned to survey the situation over there. I hope you can find the important people you need to find without a hitch. Also, there is no need to worry about the airplane. It just so happens that I have a gift for you here, to thank you for bringing me good news from Harbin.
