Guangfu is not close to us; it’s across an entire district.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Yan’s excitement gradually subsided, and she nodded, saying, \"You’re right, Guangfu is too far from here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Even with a boat, getting to Guangfu means crossing districts, and there are more and more mutant creatures in the water. It’s really dangerous.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan nodded, \"Let’s gather information first, see if we can contact the outside world, and then make plans. The urgent task now is to go to Yangshan and find a place to settle.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Yan nodded immediately, \"I just told those women to keep this a secret to avoid causing panic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan hummed, \"You did the right thing, keep this information locked down for now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they were talking, Dong Jie had already turned the dial knob on the radio a few times, but apart from static, there was no useful signal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Brother Yuan, I didn’t pick up any signals.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan frowned, thought for a moment, and said, \"It seems like Wang Fang’s Radiation superpower is indeed working. With an ordinary radio, we can’t pick up any so-called military signals here.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What should we do then?\" Ding Yan couldn’t help but ask.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan shook his head, \"There’s nothing we can do for now. I guess it has something to do with the weather. When we get to the mountain, we can try again at the top to see if we can pick up a signal.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s all we can do.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone’s anxious and excited mood cooled down, and their emotions stabilized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan chatted with a few others for a bit, then left the radio with Dong Jie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He instructed him to keep trying in his free time, hoping for unexpected results.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing their conversation, Liang Yuan got up and left.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll take a look downstairs while everyone is resting.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He went all the way down from the 26th floor to the area submerged by the floodwaters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the floor where he and Gu Feng had climbed up from, and now the water level had risen a bit more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This time, Liang Yuan took the fire stairs, walking straight into the water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once he entered the water, he immediately activated his superpower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Warmth surged from his heart to behind his ears, where gills had evolved for underwater breathing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment of adjustment, Liang Yuan spread out his spiritual power while his eyes evolved protective membranes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The deeper he went, the darker it became underwater.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Floating debris drifted in the water everywhere, while denser objects settled on the corridors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most items soaked in water were no longer usable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only some vacuum-packed or well-sealed items made it into Liang Yuan’s inventory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next few floors were mostly regular clothing stores, with quite a lot of shells, crabs, and small mutant fish wandering around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for clothing, as long as it hadn’t been soaked for too long, it could still be worn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These floors had only been submerged in the past few days, so the clothes were still in decent condition.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan put everything into his inventory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the clothes in the lower floors’ stores were already faded, indicating they had been soaked for too long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These clothes could still be worn but lacked the appeal of new ones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan still took them all, not being picky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until industrial production is restored, materials for clothing will be scarce and could be valuable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he went further down, he felt the change in water pressure. Liang Yuan activated his superpower, adjusting the pressure in his internal organs to adapt to underwater survival.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Huh, this level is the cosmetics department.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the abundance of cosmetics around him, Liang Yuan couldn’t help but laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In a survival situation, no one pays attention to these things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But once basic needs are met, clothes and cosmetics will definitely become valuable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially for women, in a world ruled by superpowers, strength is paramount.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If women don’t awaken superpowers, it’s likely they would be reduced to using their appearance for favor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Makeup and beautiful clothes would then become highly sought after.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan quickly entered a store called Dior. Honestly, he knew nothing about cosmetic brands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many brands were in English, which he couldn’t differentiate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And as an office worker, his money went to mortgage payments, so he had little familiarity with such things.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even when his girlfriend asked for cosmetics, he just transferred the money.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he really didn’t understand cosmetics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it didn’t matter, the high-end cosmetics he couldn’t afford before were now at his disposal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Display counters were filled with various perfumes, lipsticks, and lotions, all casually packed into his inventory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides this store, there were others like Burberry and YSL.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looted them all, taking every sealed cosmetic product.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looting this floor took nearly half an hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of the time was spent packing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I used to think shopping was tiring, but it’s still tiring even when it’s free.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan sighed, composed himself, and continued downstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This floor turned out to be full of jewelry shops!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Brands like Chow Tai Fook and Lao Feng Xiang crowded the floor, with myriad gold ornaments soaking in the water, ignored by all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Yuan’s exhaustion instantly vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Men seemed to have an innate fondness for gold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He began looting again, filling his inventory with large amounts of gold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the saying goes, in chaotic times, gold prevails, and in prosperous times, antiques do.\u003C\u002Fp>",920,"2026-05-29T17:51:39.874Z","2026-06-01T04:29:53.098Z",1,"novelbin.me","6c4c022d5b2ea9ead5ad1af61fd0380f5012aa6dd54c57b56572e00112389bba","apocalyptic-flood-sexy-beauty-neighbor-s-midnigh-chapter-385","apocalyptic-flood-sexy-beauty-neighbor-s-midnigh-chapter-383",1292,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalyptic-flood-sexy-beauty-neighbor-s-midnigh-cover.jpg"]
