It was only now that Wei Huo understood that the Luck Severance Skill was indeed extraordinary. It could turn clouds and rain with a flip of a hand. It could even change the situation by sending out some luck and making something rotten magical.
Zhang Yuwen’s luck was really strong. In just a few hours, she had gotten lucky. Not only were there many women in the shelter, but there were also many men who had fought over her.
The heat wave hit, and the temperature outside the shelter reached 70 degrees. Many places were set on fire, and birds, animals, and insects had nowhere to run. They were all burned to ashes, but the small mountain with the Dragon Lock Well was still safe.
It was impossible to stay on the top three levels of the shelter. The temperature on the fifth level was already 50 degrees. One could imagine how high it was higher.
The weather was getting hotter, and people were getting more restless. However, Zhang Yuwen’s chances of victory were getting higher. At that moment, Zhang Yuwen disappeared!
Many people started panicking as the temperatures rose. Who would seek justice for the women now that Zhang Yuwen was gone?
Many men were hesitant. They had always been at the bottom of the hierarchy and had never come into contact with real power. Hence, they were unwilling to give up. Now that Zhang Yuwen had disappeared and the higher-ups had regained control of the space, Liu Bayi said that he would leave after the shelter overcame its difficulties.
Wei Huo naturally knew where Zhang Yuwen was. She had been caught by the head chef and hidden in a secret chamber. The head chef was fat and rotund. Few people in the shelter had a body like his. That was enough to show that he had filled his own pockets and had reserved the best for himself.
The head chef dragged Zhang Yuwen into the secret chamber. It looked like an interrogation room. There was a table, a cup of water on it, and a chair. Zhang Yuwen was tied to the chair, and her mouth was sealed with tape. She was not unconscious, and she was still shouting.
The fat chef stood in front of her with a lascivious look in his eyes.
“Zhang Yuwen, you’ve been very arrogant these past few days! You’ve controlled all the women in the shelter. Why, are you not satisfied? So what if you’re not? It’s good enough that you guys have a chance to survive this Doomsday. Why are you asking for so much?” The chef spoke nonsense and even found excuses for his behavior. “To tell you the truth, you basically have no hope of living anymore. However, before you die, I can let you experience what it means to be happy in the world!”
As he spoke, the head chef started unbuckling his belt. However, because he was fat, his belt got stuck.
Zhang Yuwen panicked, but she could not speak because her mouth was sealed. She could only whimper.
At that moment, the secret chamber’s door creaked three times as if someone was knocking on it repeatedly.
The head chef raised his brows. He was about to explode, but someone had come to disturb him again. He was furious.
He walked to the door but did not lower his guard. He took out a kitchen knife and carefully opened the door. He only opened it a crack, but the head chef did not see anything through this crack.
There was a tunnel outside. Although there were lights in the tunnel, these lights were dim, making the tunnel also seem dim.
The head chef felt a chill in his heart and started to feel a little afraid. Very few people came to this secret room. It was rumored that this was a place where prisoners were being held and interrogated. It did not seem very auspicious.
In fact, Wei Huo had accidentally found a mineral vein when he’d built the underground shelter. After digging up, he had thought that it was too empty. He had thus built a tunnel and a few more rooms at the end of the tunnel.
That was why this place was very remote. No one would come here, and bad rumors had started spreading.
Humans liked to scare themselves.
The head chef was a little afraid, but he still closed the door. No matter what happened today, nothing could stop him from doing what he was about to do next.
