Natural Disaster: I Started By Hoarding Tens Of Billions Of Supplies

Chapter 32: Power Outage



People living in the Ling Yuan apartment complex also stopped showing off their food after witnessing people die and realizing the situation would only get worse.

Yao Ran put away her phone, went to take care of the plants, and started another day of cooking. After cooking until noon, she ate a bowl of chicken noodles.

While she ate, she took care of the crops and fed the livestock in her space. After she was done, she opened the community chat group.

More people are asking for help and buying food than there were this morning. However, as the rain gets heavier and the water levels continue to rise, no one is willing to sell their food anymore.

Before she could finish her lunch, the lights suddenly went out, and faint screams of fear and surprise could be heard. Yao Ran lit up the room with her mobile phone and walked to the balcony.

Under dark skies and pouring rain, the world plunged into darkness. After a few seconds, a faint light slowly lit up inside the buildings. Looking from a distance, the scenery is stunning, like a carpet covered with diamonds.

She walked back to the sofa and frowned, "Even the power outages came earlier. Is it because of the tornado yesterday?"

Yao Ran took out the solar emergency light and turned it on, then continued eating lunch. While eating, she looked at the community chat group again. This time, more people are joining the conversation.

[0302: Oh my God! Why did the power suddenly go out? What should we do? When will they send someone to rescue us? I live on the third floor, and it's terrible! The water had already flooded the first floor, and we had just lost power. I'm scared!]

[0504: Didn't you see the warning alert on your phone? This is a global torrential rain, and it did not happen just in Juncheng City. Rescue? We may have to wait for a long time before they come.]

[0601: How much supplies do you have in stock? I only have two cabbage heads left.]

[1406: Yesterday, I went to a supermarket, but the shelves were empty. After three hours of journey, I only got two chocolate bars.]

[1701: I also can't get much yesterday. I bought two bags of flour, but I can't cook.]

[0104: I seek shelter and am willing to pay generously.]

[0601: You'd better go out and book a high-rise hotel. They even provide meals.]

Someone started, and many others followed. Some people even invited beautiful girls to eat hot pot together, but they were ruthlessly rejected.

There were many onlookers, but no one was willing to help until someone offered to exchange items. Five expensive face masks were exchanged for a pack of instant noodles, and soon, someone responded. With a successful exchange as an example, more and more people began to take out their items to exchange.

The messages were overwhelming, and Yao Ran quickly scrolled down. She saw someone posted a video and opened it.

A car was caught in the torrent, and firefighters risked their lives to save people in the typhoon. However, the torrent engulfed the car, and it disappeared in an instant.

Following the video, more people posted videos in the group, and Yao Ran watched them calmly. Some people were successfully rescued, while others suffered devastating losses.

Watching those videos, her expression didn't change at all. Nothing is more important to her than her survival and revenge. She respects those firefighters, police officers, and soldiers, but she can't completely trust them.

After the last message was sent, the signal suddenly disappeared. A few minutes later, it was restored, but Yao Ran knew that it wouldn't be long before they would lose the signal completely. By then, the situation where people could remain calm and rational would be broken in an instant.

Yao Ran thought for a while and then sent a message to the group asking for food. Seeing that no one had responded to her request for help, she asked to buy a pack of instant noodles for 5 yuan, but there was still no reply.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Seeing this, she raised her brows slightly. There seemed to be more people without food than she had imagined.

It didn't matter to her that no one wanted to sell her food. She just wanted to join in the fun and make others believe that there was nothing to eat at home.

Outside, the typhoon raged, shattering many windows. Howling winds carried rainwater into homes, leaving panicked homeowners cursing their bad luck.

Meanwhile, water levels continue to rise. Many people felt uneasy, and the lively atmosphere in the chat group disappeared.

Seeing that she couldn't get any more helpful information, Yao Ran put away her phone. She stood up and returned to the kitchen with the emergency light.

After a power outage, gas and water will also be cut off. She didn't know how long it would take, so she had to cook more food before that.

Thinking of the current situation outside, Yao Ran decided to change the menu. She no longer makes food with strong smells but instead makes steamed buns, meat buns, fried dough sticks, scallion pancakes, egg pancakes, and other convenience foods.

When she has time, she also prepares food and puts it in lunch boxes. She has bought tens of thousands of lunch boxes before. She packs food into these lunch boxes and stores them in her space so that it will be easier to eat in the future when she can't cook.

While Yao Ran was busy cooking in the kitchen, most people were staring at the heavy rain outside while rubbing their empty bellies, hoping that rescue would arrive as soon as

possible.

After spending a whole day in the kitchen, Yao Ran had cooked a lot of food. After taking a quick shower in the space, she came to the planting room and decided to start to train her water and wood abilities.
