Chapter 140 Battle Power

Since last night, Li Tianran began considering how to improve his combat effectiveness as soon as possible.

Of course, it was very difficult to improve an Evolver's abilities, and it required too many resources, so significant improvements couldn't be achieved in a short period.

And the enemies he currently faced were still within the scope of ordinary humans, so he was considering quickly establishing a combat team mainly composed of LV3 adult-level combat Berserkers!

LV3 combat Berserkers possessed excellent skills such as sniping and close combat fighting, and were at the top level of special forces soldiers even on a global scale!

And most importantly, their entire body was made up of machinery, so they had no sense of pain, and even if limbs were severed, they still had combat power. If there were enough of these combat machines, they could wipe out a small country!

"The price of an adult-level combat Berserker is 50,000 points. The farm can now harvest 500,000 points every day. After deducting some points saved for purchasing large-scale water purification pumps, we can buy five units per day..." Li Tianran frowned, calculating his income and expenses.

Based on the data in Ren Xiao's mind, he estimated the strength of the head office. If he wanted to confront the head office head-on, he would need at least a hundred or so adult Berserkers.

This alone was a huge expense!

"This group of people at the head office... are really giving me trouble!" Li Tianran became inexplicably irritable.

In order to deal with the head office, Li Tianran had to add some unplanned expenses, but in the process of dealing with them, Li Tianran didn't come away empty-handed.

The materials and reagents used by Tianrun Corporation to manufacture the most powerful neutralizing agent had all fallen into Li Tianran's hands and were now all hoarded in the warehouse.

"These things are useless to me and can't be recycled by the system. Stacking them here is no different from garbage..." Li Tianran raised his eyebrows, suddenly thinking of someone.

Bai Jingyan.

He wondered if Bai Jingyan had escaped Yanhuang by this point and arrived at Storm Island.

These precious medicinal materials were useless to Li Tianran, but they might be of great use to Bai Jingyan…

…

Dinner time came quickly again.

For Li Tianran, the most important and anticipated thing of the day was not working or going out to fight, but eating.

He always believed that eating was a very sacred thing, even on par with procreation.

Today's dinner was made by Ding Lu under Li Tianran's guidance.

There weren't many dishes, but they were exquisite.

A braised carp, a plate of braised pork with bamboo shoots, and a large pot of stewed meat filled the entire room with fragrance.

The three of them devoured the food like a whirlwind, quickly emptying the plates.

Li Tianran noticed that Ding Lu ate all the scraps very cleanly.

"The shelter doesn't have many resources. Each person is only allocated some compressed biscuits and a pitiful amount of water. I was starving," Ding Lu said somewhat embarrassedly, wiping the corners of his mouth.

The current world situation was very bad. The shortage of food was one aspect; more importantly, it was the distribution of water resources.

The residents of the Nancheng shelter were currently only able to allocate less than 500 milliliters of fresh water per day, which was only enough to prevent dehydration. In some cities that had not yet established shelters, some unscrupulous purified water companies were privately raising the price of large quantities of potable fresh water!

Take Li Tianran's dinner tonight as an example. If it were outside, its value might exceed 30,000 yuan.

Although the currency had depreciated severely, it was enough to illustrate the high cost and shortage of food resources.

"Big brother, the wine we brewed last time can be drunk..." Hanhan, with her small feet, brought out a wine vat filled with a wine-red liquid. When the seal was opened and gently shaken, a burst of fruity aroma and a faint aroma of wine wafted out.

The three of them each filled a cup and drank it extremely heartily, letting out satisfied sighs.

In this harsh environment, the farm's worry-free life of food and clothing was obviously a paradise.

If there were no external interference, life would be very happy just by farming, raising cattle, and drinking wine every day…

Li Tianran looked out the window, eagerly anticipating the arrival of that day.

…

Just as Li Tianran was sitting in the farm sighing about life, on a barren island a thousand kilometers away from the Yanhuang border, three figures staggered onto the land.

Their clothes were ragged, and their faces were covered with the dirt and fatigue of a long journey.

But the eyes of the person in the lead were extremely bright.

"Storm Island! I've finally arrived here!"

Bai Jingyan opened his arms as if to embrace his new life, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

Since the day he left Nancheng, he had embarked on the road of escape.

Unfortunately, since he was wanted by the Umbrella Corporation, his past contacts and friends didn't dare to continue contacting him. He arrived at the border city with trepidation, only to encounter a sea beast tide that almost killed them.

And since the sea beast tide, the entire city had fallen into a state of emergency avoidance, and he couldn't find a plane to Storm Island at all.

Helpless, he could only steal a diesel boat, risking his life to cross the sea with Nan Nan and Lan Ning, enduring storms, surviving countless hardships, and finally arriving at their destination!

"This place is too broken! My skills are useless here!" Lan Ning looked at the island in front of her. In the center of the island was a city, but its development level was not even as good as a fifth-tier city in the country, and it might not even have internet!

"This is an undeveloped primitive land, but we have come, and it will change because of us." Bai Jingyan looked at the city ahead, his eyes radiating excitement: "My dream will be realized here!"

…

"What is this?"

Miao Yu stood in the temporary command headquarters hall, looking at a document that Professor Nan was writing, frowning and reading: "A proposal regarding the analysis and research of Evolver genes… You're suggesting that the higher-ups develop and research superhumans?"
