Apocalypse: I'm the Landlady of the Refuge-Chapter 54 - The Vinegar Jar Overturned
Chapter 54: Chapter 54: The Vinegar Jar Overturned
Chapter 54: Chapter 54: The Vinegar Jar Overturned
Hearing the System finish speaking, Ji Wanwan couldn’t help but give a thumbs up.
That was quite comprehensive; at least she couldn’t think of anything to add for the time being.
With that said, the System completed the upgrade, and the refuge formally became a Level 1 Ecological Refuge Base.
System: [Rewarding a bonus of +20 points to four body functions, please choose from: Physical Strength, Endurance, Strength, Agility, Spirit, Charm.]
As soon as the System’s voice faded, an attribute panel popped up in front of Ji Wanwan.
[Physical Strength: 335 Endurance: 15]
[Strength: 45 Agility: 15]
[Spirit: 295 Charm: 20]
Seeing the lagging attributes of Endurance, Strength, Agility, and Charm, Ji Wanwan didn’t even need to think before choosing these four.
System: [Okay.]
[As the refuge upgrades to a base, the host’s superpower also undergoes an upgrade.]
[Current Superpower Level:]
[Space Manipulation: Level 6, able to manipulate space within 600 meters, current Experience Points 658/12000, superpower upgrade +150 spiritual power.]
[Equivalence Healing: Level 6, consumes 60% of equivalent materials to heal others, current Experience Points 568/12000, superpower upgrade +150 Physical Strength.]
[Current Attributes are:]
[Physical Strength: 485 Endurance: 35]
[Strength: 65 Agility: 35]
[Spirit: 445 Charm: 40]
A familiar warm current spread to her limbs and bones, and Ji Wanwan comfortably shivered.
Awesome!
After the upgrade, Ji Wanwan could clearly feel her physique was much stronger than before, and the feeling of weakness and shortness of breath had completely vanished.
At this moment, she felt like an agile rabbit, full of energy from head to toe.
As her surroundings returned to normal, Ji Wanwan appreciated the scenery of the base while slowly walking towards the Inner City.
There were six suites in the Inner City.
Family members were living in Suite No. 1, Qi Hao and his grandma in No. 2, Xia Li in No. 3, Xu Siming in No. 4, Zhou Kai in No. 5, and No. 6 was temporarily vacant, so Ji Wanwan moved in.

Before Suite No. 6 was decorated, it belonged to her.
She planned to take a bath first, let herself and the small team members rest well, and then gather everyone in the evening to have a barbecue in the waterside pavilion and hold a combat summary meeting.
As for the other matters in the base, she entrusted everything to 001 and 002.
As long as there was no life-or-death situation, 001 and 002 could make decisions on their own.
When she woke up, it was already nighttime.
According to Ji Wanwan’s arrangement, 001 had already prepared the ingredients in the waterside pavilion in advance.
Wearing a comfortable nightgown, Ji Wanwan lazily walked toward the pavilion, dragging her feet.
By then, everyone had already arrived, except for Zhou Kai.
Ji Wanwan was a bit surprised.
That wasn’t like Zhou Kai’s character to be late!
Just as the thought crossed her mind, Zhou Kai arrived covered in blood.
Hearing footsteps, Ji Wanwan turned around and saw the man’s gloomy expression, his body emitting a stench. She frowned slightly, “Did you go out to kill zombies by yourself?”
Zhou Kai nodded silently.
After this morning’s battle, even Qi Hao, the wealthy and idle scion, had realized his superpower, but he had not!
How could he be content with that!
Ji Wanwan saw the man’s stubbornness, “Brother Kai, there’s plenty of time to become stronger. Being so impetuous, be careful not to defeat your own purpose.
If you get injured by zombies because you’re too exhausted, that would be a loss beyond recovery.”
This was the first time Ji Wanwan had called Zhou Kai Brother Kai.
The man was taken aback for a moment, and his brooding eyes softened slightly, “I’ll go back to take a shower and come over quickly.”
Ji Wanwan nodded slightly, “Okay, we’ll wait for you.”
In the pavilion.
Qi Hao had spotted Zhou Kai and Ji Wanwan talking from a distance, but they were too far away for him to hear what they were saying.
After his awakening earlier in the morning, Qi Hao had felt a bit light-headed, thinking he’s become capable once again.
He quickly rose to his feet and rushed over to Ji Wanwan to show off: “Wanwan, I’ve made a little mud dog, does it look like Changsheng?”
Changsheng was the puppy Ji Wanwan had found on the street on the day the apocalypse erupted.
She had named it Changsheng because she hoped all the people she cared about would live long and healthy lives.
The young Changsheng was mostly taken care of by 001 these days.
In taking care of the little puppy, 001 could be said to have spared no effort.
The plump and round Changsheng had at one point become the mascot of the refuge, and almost everyone couldn’t help but pet him a couple of times.
Looking at the little mud dog in Qi Hao’s hand, Ji Wanwan couldn’t help but laugh: “It’s very cute.”
Qi Hao was over the moon: “It’s for you~”
Ji Wanwan took the little mud dog, smiling so her eyes crinkled: “Then I won’t be polite~”
“Xiao Wan! Come for kebabs! I’ve already grilled them!”
From the pavilion, Xu Siming’s voice came through, and Ji Wanwan was slightly startled.
Seeing her look over, Xu Siming raised the kebabs in his hand: “Crispy and aromatic! It’s the flavor you like!”
At the mention of food, Ji Wanwan’s nose twitched.
The aroma of the grilled meat wafted over, and she indeed started to crave it.
She quickly went to the pavilion and when she saw a bowl piled high with meat in front of her, she couldn’t help but break into a smile, biting into a skewer of mutton straight away.
The fat and lean meat was crisply charred on the outside and tender inside; the juice burst on her tongue with one bite.
Ji Wanwan’s eyes lit up: “Delicious!”
Xu Siming timely passed her a cup of ice-cold soda.
Ji Wanwan took it naturally and took a big gulp with gusto, her eyes lighting up again: “Refreshing!!!”
Xu Siming: “Haha, keep eating! Eat the meat!”
Qi Hao: “…”
Ji Xing: Hehehe, there it goes, the vinegar pot has overturned~
Xia Li: ? Something feels off?
When Zhou Kai came back, the rest of the small team was already having a blast.
Qi Hao and Xu Siming each held a cup of soda, both boldly declaring: “Old Xu, let’s get this straight before we begin, no backing out if you lose, you must down this cup! Whoever doesn’t is a sissy!”
Xu Siming stiffened his neck: “Who do you think you’re looking down on? If I lose, I’ll guzzle down a whole bucket! You dare?”
Qi Hao’s face turned red and his neck thickened: “I’m not afraid of you! A bucket it is! Come on!”
Zhou Kai: “?”
Am I seeing things? Are they not holding soda? Could it be wine??
But that can’t be!
Where would the bubbles in wine come from?
Over there, Qi Hao and Xu Siming rolled up their sleeves: “Rock paper scissors! Haozi loses! Drink!”
Qi Hao was so exasperated that he collapsed: “Ah! The heavens want me dead!”
He heroically picked up a large bucket of soda and started chugging.
Zhou Kai: “…” Is this deep ice well?
Ji Wanwan: “6”
Ji Xing: “Brother Haozi is a real man! Chug chug chug!”
Xia Li: “Ah… my soda…”
Xu Siming: “Hmph, kiddo, you’re still too young to compete with me!”
Maybe it was the excitement of being on the edge of survival after a hard fight; the small team continued their lively chatter until late into the night before calming down.
The wood-element superpower awakener who was guarding his sister in the operation room heard the noise and couldn’t help but be drawn to it, quietly walking outside to look over at the pavilion.
Seeing everyone so happy, he felt a touch of envy, and his melancholic eyes suddenly sparkled with a hint of anticipation.
In the pavilion, Ji Wanwan clapped her hands to signal everyone to sit down and began the evening’s battle summary meeting…
