The Reborn Otaku's Code of Practice for the Apocalypse

Chapter 56 - 60

56

Due to changes in the fence perimeter, when the car drove past the area where brick walls were being built, the number of earth ability users was significantly higher, almost one per section. When they built a wall, although they also needed a lot of raw materials, such as concrete and other things but with the blessing of crystal nuclei and a large number of people, could cover a lot of land in one short morning.

And that was before the walls being pulled together, at this time people only left a small part responsible for handling the heavy, physical work. The remainder were inside the outer wall, working with the soldiers to clean up buildings and debris for the safety of people after the wall was done.

There was a lot of land space between the outer and inner wall, which would inevitably have zombies that had been missed. The main goal was to collect nuclei from the zombies and scavenge other resources.

In addition, there may not be enough housing so these people had to participate in residential housing construction. There was always work to do.

The two people's harvest today was good, they were happier than usual on the way home. Yan Fei consumed less nuclei than anyone else, some of the extra crystals were stockpiled and the rest were absorbed on weekdays. Yan Fei tried to elevate his abilities as quickly as possible.

His ability was better than others right now but if he stagnated while others struggled, his advantage would be gone.

Yan Fei knew this better than anyone, it had been taught to him from childhood. If one did not want to be a loser or bullied, they had to stay on top all the time, even if on the surface he was at ease, as if everything was done casually.

Wanted to install force, just needed desperate people vomiting blood in realization. One would gently offer their hand, the collective would bend the knee. No pains, reaping what one had sown or resting on laurels, that would lead to being a joke.

So in spite of not being able to eat Luo Xun's tofu at home this evening because he would be tired/exhausted. He also had to empty his spiritual energy before going to bed.

It was the end of the world and he wanted to protect this unexpected home which let him feel incomparable happiness. He must to his best to keep the peace and his loved ones protected. In the event of an unexpected circumstances his strength needed to be enough to have the last laugh.

Luo Xun was driving slowly through downtown towards their neighborhood. He saw people selling things at random on the roadside while passing, suddenly he felt a hand at his head. Luo Xun turned to see Yan Fei in the back seat holding his hair.

"What's up?"

"Nothing, your hair is a bit long. Do you want to tie it up when we get back?" Yan Fei asked lazily.

Luo Xun's expression twisted as he shook his head. "No, help me cut it back home."

Tie it up? He was not a woman, not mainstream, definitely not an art director, did not need a ponytail!

"Me? Cut your hair? Are you sure?" Yan Fei involuntarily stared wide eyed. He had learned to cut cloth but hair...other than that time in primary school where he used craft scissors to cut a girl's pigtail, he had never dealt with another's hair. Luo Xun was not afraid to go out the door with a bad haircut?

"No problem, if I did it myself it would be worse." Luo Xun added brightly. "I can also help you cut at home!" He regretted in his past that life he had no place to use his washing and cutting skills!

There were barbers after the apocalypse but the job had no future. Technology was good enough that once the base people had money, men and women seeking beauty would look for more technical hairdressers. However if the technology was not good, one could earn some chips or cookies from a day of work.
