Apocalypse: Hero of Potato Fields

Chapter 101: That's What They All Say When They're Blown Up


Shelter.

Lin Yi woke up from sleep and, after breakfast, plunged into intense work.

His first decision was to check on the rabbit population.

Amazing!

The shelter's rabbits were reproducing at an astonishing rate, with four hundred new rabbits each day, but the butchers could barely handle one hundred of them.

Therefore, he temporarily decided not to expand the rabbit breeding scale.

Next, Lin Yi went to check the meat processing plant.

The workers here had already developed an efficient assembly line workflow.

The first step was managed by two workers responsible for skinning, gutting, and bleeding.

Then, some rabbit carcasses were sent to the cold storage for preservation, while the rest were sent to the butcher's table, where they were cut into rabbit legs, rabbit chops, and small pieces of abdominal meat.

The shelter's rabbits were much larger than those on Earth, with an average weight of about 20 pounds, and around 17 pounds of that was edible meat, so processing them was laborious.

After the rabbit carcasses were cut, the meat was categorized and sent to the cold storage for refrigeration. Like the cellar, the meat could be preserved indefinitely there.

Finally, some parts of the rabbit corpses—like viscera and bones—remained, which were hard to consume.

Everyone in the shelter had gone hungry before and couldn't bear to waste anything edible.

Lin Yi came up with an idea and established a recycling mechanism.

In the process, the cleaned viscera and bones were packaged and placed in the refrigerator.

If the opportunity arose, he would distribute these items to the starving children for free.

After leaving the processing area, Lin Yi went to the community dining hall.

Each small block had its own dining hall, accommodating four hundred people, in a buffet style.

In Lin Yi's opinion, only well-fed and happy workers could engage in their work effectively. So he was never stingy when it came to providing food.

The residents, who were hungry a week ago, were very grateful. But it goes without saying that people easily forget hard days and gradually adapt to a good present,

so their gratitude would eventually wane.

However, Lin Yi never expected the people to worship him; he just wanted outstanding and loyal employees.

The dining hall was a bit simple, with basic furniture, and the floor and walls were brick-built.

The chandeliers for lighting were scavenged from apartments in the real world; although they looked somewhat amusing, they sufficed.

The chefs were authorized to use the cold storage and cellar, so they didn't have to transport food everywhere; they only needed to issue a command in their minds, and meat or potatoes would appear before them.

Speaking of chefs...

The majority of the kitchen staff lacked professional cooking experience; they were all homemakers before.

During his inspection, Lin Yi listed down the problems he identified, ready to make improvements.

Then, he moved towards the garage.

The shelter currently had four civilian vehicles and three military jeeps, two of which were used for combat and one armored vehicle for officers.

The other three jeeps were under maintenance.

Additionally, the shelter had several motorcycles, but most were broken or had been dismantled.

Lin Yi circled a military jeep that now only had its chassis, shouting loudly.

"Old rascal, where are you?"

"Right here, boss!"

Lin Yi followed Louis's voice and found him focused on welding something.

"What are you working on?"

"Sorry, boss, I'm making a bomb with a timer; it will be ready in an hour." Louis was deeply focused, sweating profusely.

Lin Yi nodded and turned towards the barracks.

The shelter had two barracks.

Each barrack could accommodate forty people, but since there were only 53 soldiers, and they took turns guarding the perimeter of the shelter, the barracks were rarely used.

At the shooting range, Solomon was teaching his soldiers how to accurately hit their targets.

Even those who could transform and use magic, and the archers, had to undergo training.

The soldiers started by learning to use handguns, gradually progressing to submachine guns and shotguns, with the best being equipped with assault rifles.

Solomon didn't ignore close-quarters combat training, which was particularly important for the Beastmen.

They grew up in the comfortable western environment and didn't know what real "combat" was—perhaps an occasional drunkard hit his old wife...

They also engaged in significant strength training.

This was a paradox of the system, a boxer with a Power value of 15 could easily defeat a regular person with a Power value of 25 or even 30.

The system would alter people's skeletal and muscular structure based on their attributes.

But if someone didn't exercise and lazed around all day, the strength they could exert would be at most 18%.

Professor Mark, after extensive research on system users in the Louvre and the shelter, concluded this precisely.

Agility attribute would also affect a person's muscle nature, as well as their nervous system and sensory organs.

This attribute could enhance flexibility, speed, reaction time, and even increase vision and scent.

Endurance attribute could expand the lungs, improve blood circulation, and oxygen supply.

Life Value attribute would generally make a person stronger, bolster the immune system, accelerate healing speed, improve the resistance of the internal organs to damage, and make bones more resilient.

As for the Magic Attribute, everyone knew it affected the strength of magic skills and magic power, but no one knew specifically how it worked.

After wandering in the shelter for a while longer, Lin Yi returned to his laptop.

After capturing the Space-Time Fragment, the shelter earned 2000 Experience Points, reaching level 11.

The variety of items in the store increased.

After searching for half an hour, Lin Yi finally discovered an intriguing new item.

[Portable Camera]

A badge that can be pinned to clothing.

Depending on the number of laptops and badges, it can simultaneously observe two or more people.

[Price: 500 coins]

Lin Yi bought three badges, a few walkie-talkies, and a bunch of headsets.

Then he asked Melanie, who was beside him, "Did you find someone to operate the camera?"

"I found only one girl; she's very patient and attentive, the others are no good."

The black girl recalled those peculiar candidates with an expression of helplessness.

Operating a camera involved the owner's security and was arguably the strictest position in the shelter.

Lin Yi stroked his chin, suddenly thought of something, and said, "It doesn't necessarily have to be a girl."

"Boss, I don't quite understand…"

"If someone has skills in this area, I don't care about their age or gender. This is a very important job. Once we operate in Paris… hmm, you know what I mean, right?"

Melanie didn't really understand what the boss meant, but she nodded anyway.

Fifteen minutes later.

A tired Louis came running over.

He was dragging a huge canister, with an electronic device welded onto it.

When Lin Yi saw Louis, he quickly stopped him, shouting, "Hey, hey, hey, is that a bomb?!"

Amateur bomber Louis froze in place.

After a moment, he grinned and replied, "Yeah, but don't worry! It's only going to explode when I press this button."

"That's what every damned person who's been blown up says!"

Lin Yi shouted angrily...
