Beloved Daddy In Apocalypse
19. Creating an Underground Crack

After listening to all of Yin Zhen's explanations, Jiang Yalan decided to go straight back to the European Health Center and ask some of his closest people to go back with him to China.

He himself was already not too concerned about that Magic Liquid, nor would he spread his talk with Yin Zhen. Who's gonna believe it anyway?

Yin Zhen himself on the other hand directly contacted Mei Qi's number, but unfortunately his mobile number was off even after he tried to call her several times, so he decided to send a message to Mei Qi, so he decided to send a message to her, ask him to call back when he receives the message.

In the living room, she saw the cool Yin Mei playing dolls alone while watching her favorite cartoon show. Yin Zhen walked up to the little girl and said, "May'er want to go for a walk?"

Yin Mei instantly stopped her activities and looked at her papa with both sparkling eyes, "Mau! Mei'er is tired of playing alone, Mei'er wants to go out with papa!"

"Alright, then bring papa will bring you a coat first, the weather outside is quite cold now."

Yin Zhen returned to his room and brought a small coat to Yin Mei, she also wore a coat that was thick enough to protect her from the cold autumn air.

While waiting for Mei Qi to reply to her message, she planned to build her own underground safe. Although it was a little tiring considering his strength was still quite weak, but he believed he could make a sizable room underground.

With the underground vault, he could keep all the food and other interests in there. After the apocalypse arrived, rice and other staple foods would become extremely rare, so he had to prepare from now on.

As for other purposes such as oil and candles, he had to buy them in large quantities as well. Once Earth receives Mana energy, forget electricity, modern civilization may have only vehicles left. It was also not very useful considering the conditions where mutant beasts could easily destroy cars.

During the journey, sometimes Yin Mei asked some random questions and Yin Zhen patiently answered them. Not long after, the two reached the forest near their home which was still in the construction stage.

The astonished Yin Mei clearly asked, "papa, why are we stopping here? Aren't we going to play?"

"We're gonna play baby... Did Mei'er see the land up ahead? Papa's going to make that giant room underground right now, Mei'er wants to help no?"

"The underground chamber? Is it like a house underground?"

"Right, Mei'er is very smart."

"Hehe! Well then, Mei'er wants to help papa!"

Before that, Yin Zhen came to Hu Lian and borrowed some digging tools to dig the ground. Hu Lian who saw that was of course surprised, but since Yin Zhen did not want to talk about it, Hu Lian chose to be quiet.

"We have a lot of digging tools here, mister Yin can bring you what you want."

"Then I'll bring these two, and this one. I'll return it this afternoon. Oh yeah, when will the construction be finished?" tanyakanya.

"The estimated construction of the house will be completed tomorrow after tomorrow. The entire foundation has been fully finished and the roof has also been completed. Just need to add a few small details inside and make sure that everything is sturdy," Hu Lian explained casually. Due to the amount of money that Yin Zhen had given him, he did not hesitate to hire dozens of workers at once for a hefty fee.

So that the construction of the house will take place more quickly and efficiently.

Yin Zhen who was listening to him only nodded his head lightly, "alright... By the way, I advise you and all your relatives to stay in this area."

"Eum? Why?"

"You'll know in time, but take these words seriously. Within a week, something will happen, and maybe only this area will be safe."

Hu Lian still frowned not understanding. Why is this man in front of him talking so convolutedly? Wouldn't it be better if he told her directly?

"I'll consider it. Thanks for telling me earlier..."

***

Hour after hour passed, Yin Mei was playing with sand with a small digging tool in her hand. He had been playing sand for almost four hours, and occasionally his papa would accompany him.

"Father! Look, I've made a spicy spice!"

Yin Zhen who was digging the ground rubbed his wet forehead gently with sweat sweat sweat, "woah! Mei'er is great. That must be so spicy!"

"Hehehe... Mei'er will make the most spicy food in the world, will definitely sell expensive. Papa should buy it!"

Yin Zhen chuckled softly as he continued to continue his activities. He had endless stamina, but in the face of the scorching sun, inevitably his body was full of sweat.

The Constellation's records let him know for sure the extent of his strength. With a Strength (STR) stat that almost touched the number 2,000, he did not worry about fatigue even after a week of work and also the process of digging the ground was much faster several times than ordinary humans.

"It's hot enough here. Fortunately I've made enough holes to be considered an underground safe."

He looked around him closely. The result of his four hours of excavation made him successfully dig a hole with a depth of 15 meters, a length of 20 meters and a width of 10 meters. At least with such a large room he could store several tons of food in it.

Fortunately his excavation site was quite far away with the location of his house, so Hu Lian and all the construction workers did not see it. If they all saw what Yin Zhen was doing, they would already be shocked.

"Now I just need to make the ground floor and the roof and some pillars inside to support the weight from above."

He looked around him full of trees.

"It shouldn't be a problem, right if I cut down some trees? Never mind, they won't notice it from this distance either."

Yin Zhen glanced at his little girl who was still playing, without Yin Mei noticing, one by one the trees began to fall, but strangely no noise was heard at all.

However Yin Zhen tried to minimize the noise that attracted the attention of people, it would be troublesome if others saw what he was doing now.

The tree branch was 1 meter in diameter and 40 meters long with ease Yin Zhen lifted. One by one similar type of trees were collected in one place.

"Yes... I've cut down 10 trees and this should be enough to make the roof of the safe."

Each process passed long enough, he had to cut the branch first, measure the length of the tree and make some other observations.

Yin Mei who was tired of playing also just sat quietly staring at her papa who was casually lifting a branch of a tree that should weigh more than 300 kg.

"I want to be like Dad! Become strong and be able to lift trees in the future!" yin Mei muttered to herself.

Until it did not feel the time passed very quickly, the sun had begun to turn yellow and night animals began to sound in the depths of the forest that signified the day began to afternoon.

Yin Zhen came out from the safe he had just made and patted his hands slowly, clearing away the remaining dust on both palms.

"Huh... Finally finished too. Oh yeah, what time is it?"

He looked at the sky that was starting to turn yellow, his two eyes slightly trembling as he recalled something. "Oh no, I forgot to have lunch with Mei'er. He must be very hungry right now!"
