Anyway, now that there’s enough water, wasting it a bit doesn’t really matter.
There’s a washing machine, but no detergent. Lin Yue got some water and started a wash; it’s about all he could do right now.
"Gawu." Bai ran over and called out to Lin Yue.
"Alright, let’s eat something delicious today!"
Lin Yue pulled out the Lion-headed Bear’s carcass from the Storage Space.
"Look, we’re going to have a big party, a Lion-headed Bear feast!"
The meat of the Lion-headed Bear was cut into small pieces with an incredibly sharp dagger, and under Lin Yue’s hands, it was slowly marinated with the flavor of the spices.
After skewering it, Lin Yue placed each skewer onto the barbecue grill.
Soon, as the oil sizzled, the fragrant aroma spread throughout the Shelter under the influence of the charcoal fire.
For this meal, Bai, the Little Ice Lizards, and everyone else ate with great excitement.
Especially Xiao Meng, Lin Yue had never seen this guy eat so much, it was as if it had never been injured at all.
Even though it was still wrapped in bandages, its eating speed was not slow at all.
It didn’t take long for the whole Lion-headed Bear’s meat to be completely devoured by these foodies.
Luckily, the grill was big enough, and his hands were quick, otherwise roasting over a hundred pounds of meat wouldn’t have been easy at all.
But after eating and drinking to their fill, it was already close to midnight.
Xiao Meng ate a lot, seemingly unaffected by the injury, and the Little Ice Lizards all had their bellies up, each one thoroughly satisfied.
Bai, however, seemed to have something on his mind. Unlike before, he didn’t eat a lot but instead helped Lin Yue with cutting and marinating the meat.
Lin Yue could tell that Bai was still worried about Xiao Meng’s injuries. Although Xiao Meng seemed to be recovering rapidly, who knows how it will be tomorrow.
"It’s okay, Bai. I’ll sleep next to Xiao Meng tonight, so if anything happens, I’ll know right away."
Comforting Bai, Lin Yue went back to the basement for a look. Xiao Meng was already fast asleep.
Lin Yue placed a bed next to Xiao Meng, reassuring Bai to head back. After sending the Little Ice Lizards upstairs, Lin Yue turned off the basement light.
Come to think of it, the last time I slept in the basement was before the first disaster.
Back then, because the furnace was too hot, I had to come to the basement to cool off. But because of this, I managed to get through the first disaster fairly easily.
Next up, around this time tomorrow, the second disaster will arrive.
This disaster is completely different from before.
A Category 5 hurricane coupled with thunderstorms.
Its intensity is even greater than any in the past.
However, this kind of disaster is relatively speaking only a "surface-level" disaster, and unless extremely unusual circumstances arise, it generally won’t affect the underground.
Typically, a simple underground Shelter is enough, you just need to waterproof it and secure all the valuables to weather it through.
But now, everyone is basically huddled together in the Refugee Village, and many even use iron shelters; there are even some high-rise buildings.
The Survivors’ possessions and other important items each hold considerable value too.
So this time, the disaster seems particularly challenging.
However, perhaps this disaster is one of the main reasons that prompted the appearance of those beggars.
Last time, some managed to survive in the Underground Ruins, and more people discovered this loophole.
And some have thus given up trying.
"Speaking of which, the rankings should be out by now, right?" Lin Yue opened the system panel.
