I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World (Web Novel)
chapter-1149

Chapter 1149 Ceremonial Ship Launching A long time ago, the apocalypse only gave Jiang Chen the feeling of despair… and despair.The streets were blocked by zombies and mutants, the raiders and the cannibals raged, and the mutated humans occasionally ravaged the land. In order to explain the origin of his food, he must carefully weave lies and then create his own bloody road among the bloodthirsty mutants and cruel robbers.

Only when he returned to the modern world did he get an opportunity to breath.

From the leak of the X2 bacteria to the later mutant flood, from the Supreme rebellion to the subsequent war with the Northern Alliance Area, troubles forced him to move forward. He must protect the home he created, protect the people that loved him, and those that he loved…

Now, the situation seemed to be reversed.

Zombies had disappeared from Wanghai, and mutants migrated away to the wilderness without survivors. There were no complicated international relationships. There were no regional conflicts that must be handled with care. On this ruin, NAC was a well-deserved king, even something as strong as the Northern Alliance Area, left behind from the previous world, must surrender to NAC’s might.

The apocalypse became his peace.

Only in the apocalypse could Jiang Chen temporarily put down the fatigue accumulated in the modern world and enjoy the rare leisure…

…

On the east bank of Wanghai, next to Liuding Town.

The bright steel hull was pushed down into the sea water, and a brand-new destroyer floated beside the rusty Bohai.

The flag of the New Pan-Asia Cooperation (NAC) swayed in the sea breeze. The magnificent steel ship stood firmly in the rolling waves. The three electromagnetic pulse cannons were arranged in a stepped manner. They neatly pointed to the sky and highlighted their fierce firepower.

Jiang Chen stood on the dock and examined the warship not far from him.

The waves rolled against the coast and his heart rolled with it. The launch of the electromagnetic destroyer meant that the NAC Navy finally took its first step. Although there were still many shortcomings compared to the Beluga Station, NAC made a monumental breakthrough.

NAC had conquered the land and was destined to conquer the ocean and bring the world under its banner…

“Our first warship.” Cheng Weiguo walked to Jiang Chen’s side and looked at the brand-new destroyer, emotionally he said, “It is finally built.”

Under the name of building a dock for the maintenance of the Bohai Aircraft Carrier, the shipyard was built. The bottom line of the Beluga Station was slowly eclipsed, and the destroyer finally entered the sea. This was only the first one. There would be many ships in the future. Not only destroyers, but NAC also developed submarines and built the navy based on the standards of pre-war PAC.

“Is there a name for her?” Jiang Chen raised his chin toward the destroyer.

“Not yet, General, please give her a name.”

Jiang Chen thought for a moment and then looked up.

“Let’s call it Destroyer Ship Qingpu.”

The Fishbone Base built itself in Qingpu, Wanghai. Qingpu was the birthplace of NAC and was a fitting name for the first destroyer of NAC.

“DS Qingpu?” Cheng Weiguo nodded. “I will tell people to engrave this name.”

Cheng Weiguo paused and asked, “I don’t know which army the destroyer belongs to…”

“I will establish a new navy division, independent of the Army system. Just like AS Order, it will have its own system and will directly obey orders from the Central Military Department.” Jiang Chen looked at DS Qingpu and said, “The NAC trade route has been in the hands of outsiders for too long. It’s time to take it back.”

When Cheng Weiguo heard the General’s words, he solemnly straightened his back.

As the head of the First Division, he was the confidant around Jiang Chen from the very beginning. Of course, he knew the foreigner the General referred to.

“The next step is to build anti-aircraft cannons along the shore, echoing the electromagnetic pulse cannons of Chongming Island. We are currently not a threat to the Beluga Station at sea, so we must start from land infrastructures. Although we are on good terms with Beluga Station, you can never forget that this is the wasteland.”

“Roger,” Cheng Weiguo shouted.

“Good. I’m going to head back now.”

Jiang Chen nodded, turned, and walked to the armored car behind him.

Cheng Weiguo looked at the back of the armored car and watched it disappear at the end of the street.

…

When Jiang Chen arrived home, the aromatic smell of cooked meat lingered in the mansion.

Every time he came back, the mansion was always bustling.

Not only the NAC granary was filled, but the fridge in the mansion was also full. Although they never lacked food, items such as seafood which can’t be stored for long, could only be enjoyed during Jiang Chen’s return.

Today was no exception.

When Jiang Chen passed through Coconut Island, he brought a fridge-full of fresh seafood with him.

Therefore, the girls voted unanimously to eat hotpot for dinner that night

Yao Yao prepared her original hotpot soup base in the kitchen. Sun Jiao, who only knew how to serve the plates, helped to bring the hotpot to the table.

All eyes stared straight at the bubbling hotpot soup. Lin Lin’s little hand squeezed her fork tightly as she swallowed.

Xiaorou held her face with her hands and smiled while she swayed her slim legs under the table. She was hymning her favorite song that she wrote.

“… beef rolls, mutton rolls, and delicious cuttlefish, which one to eat first~”

Hotpot was really more delicious with more people.

The soup boiled, and Lin Lin who couldn’t wait tossed a plateful of mutton roll into the boiling hotpot, and soon the fragrance spread over the house. All eyes stared at the meat rolls rolling in the soup, and even Jiang Chen couldn’t wait for the meat to boil.

Amongst the cheers and laughter, the family ate hotpot and left a mess on the table.

After everyone cleaned the dishes together, Yao Yao returned to her room to read, Lin Lin went to the “Lin Institute.” As for Xiaorou, she went to the backyard. Every night, she practiced her ability to detonate crystals in the backyard as she tried to unlock her the third hidden gene code.

It was already her habit.

A habit that cost a lot of crystals.

There weren’t really many things for entertainment in the apocyalpse.

Other than enjoying food, there didn’t seem to be many interesting activities. Most people chose to spend their extra time at work. Even if they don’t have a job, they often found something to do, such as practicing shooting and learning.

In fact, Jiang Chen also thought about unlocking his hidden genetic code, except he couldn’t find a suitable way to practice his “Fury” ability. He couldn’t just lose his temper everyday. He thought his temper was pretty mild…

“This year, six hundred babies were born.”

After Sun Jiao entered the office, she grabbed two cans of beer and walked to Jiang Chen. She handed him a can and leaned against the bookshelf.

“Does this count as a lot or too little?” Jiang Chen asked.

Sun Jiao smiled and said with a sly voice, “This is considered a small baby boom. Four years ago, it was rare to see a few babies at the Sixth Street. Thanks to this, the Sixth Street has recently opened a baby goods store and has started to sell things like diapers.”

Jiang Chen nodded as he showed a pleasant smile.

“This is great. It indicates that our survivors have settled –”

“It doesn’t matter what happens to other people,” Sun Jiao interrupted. She stared at her toes and whispered, “I mean, I’m thinking, we should also have a child…”

Jiang Chen sighed slightly, and after a moment of silence, he whispered, “Let him be born in the last days?”

Sun Jiao’s lips were closed, and her eyes showed a hint of confusion.

She also knew, perhaps it would be better to wait just a bit longer, but just watching more and more children in the base strung a string in her heart that was never tough before.

Yes, this family was very big and warm, but she always felt like something was missing.

If she must say what, it may be a little life full of joy. Although she did not have the confidence to become a qualified mother, she vowed that she would work hard, give the maternal love she has never experienced before to her child, give her child a childhood that she has never enjoyed, and find all the irreparable things in that little life that she regretted before…

“Let’s wait.” Jiang Chen rubbed her soft hair.

“How much longer?” Sun Jiao pouted, her mood seemed to be down.

“When everything is over,” Jiang Chen looked at Sun Jiao and looked at the yellowish-green sky outside the window and sighed softly. “Someone must inherit all of this.”

Of course, maybe this was just his excuse.

It was just that he also didn’t have the self-confidence for the time being, to take up the responsibility of being a father…
