Ten minutes later, we arrived at Happiness Park.

The park gate was in a state of disrepair, and the horizontal plaque hanging above it was now dangling precariously from the beam after the pieces fell.

However, the road in front of the entrance is clear, and the tire tracks on the ground indicate that there is frequent traffic here.

Ye Lei ordered the enraged assassin to guard the park entrance, then drove his Mercedes SUV into the park.

Surprisingly, there was a sign by the roadside that read "Crystal Core Collection Point" and even indicated the direction—so blatant!

Following the signs, Ye Lei quickly arrived at an antique-style building. He hadn't encountered a single zombie along the way, perhaps because these people had already eliminated them.

He saw a table in front of the building's main entrance, where several people were chatting leisurely. When Ye Lei's car drove up, they stopped and looked in his direction.

Ye Lei smiled slightly. He could handle these people on his own; he didn't need Chen Xue'er and Xu Jiao's help. They could just stay in the car.

He didn't turn off the car, after all, the weather was scorching hot, and air conditioning would make it much more comfortable.

Then, Ye Lei opened the car door and walked towards the group of people.

Hello, how can I help you?

One of the other people, who looked like he was in charge, asked.

"Aren't you people who collect crystal cores?"

Yes, how many do you have?

"How did you redeem it?"

Ye Lei wasn't in a hurry; he wanted to find out more before making a decision.

"Five ordinary crystal cores can be exchanged for a bag of instant noodles."

"Oh, what if I don't want instant noodles?"

"Other items of equal value are also acceptable, as long as we have them here."

Unexpectedly, in this apocalyptic world, instant noodles have become a form of currency.

"Then tell me, what can I exchange these crystal cores for?"

Ye Lei took out a thousand crystal cores that he had prepared in advance and placed them heavily on the table.

"Okay, please wait a moment while I take a look."

After the manager finished speaking, he opened the bag and was shocked to see how many there were.

"Boss, you have way too many crystal cores. I'm afraid even all the resources we have here wouldn't be enough for you!"

They spoke quite politely, but this only further demonstrates that this is a very organized group.

"So what do you suggest we do? How about we just go to your company?"

Ye Lei thought that if he could, it would save him a lot of effort.

"Boss, please wait a moment. I'll have someone from the company deliver the supplies right away. You won't need to make the trip."

After the manager finished speaking, he went inside, followed by one of his underlings. Ye Lei could only wait helplessly.

He had just finished making a phone call and was about to leave when his younger brother stopped him.

"Boss, did you see it?"

"What do you see?"

"Luxury cars and beautiful women!"

"Oh, you mean the person who came to exchange supplies?"

"Yes, you might not have noticed what you were saying, but I saw it clearly. There were two stunning beauties sitting inside. It's been so long since I've seen a woman!"

The younger brother said with a lewd grin.

"Alright, we're working, so don't get any ideas."

"Boss, the company truck is coming to deliver supplies anyway, it'll take a while. You go and stall him, we'll go chat up some pretty girls and satisfy our cravings."

It seems this underling has already made his plans.

"I'm telling you, don't cause trouble out of nothing, do you hear me?"

The manager said with a serious expression.

"Boss, we're just going over there to chat with the pretty girls, that's all."

It's probably not that simple. This kind of person is capable of anything when he sees a woman.

"Okay, remember, don't make a big deal out of it."

The person in charge took it as agreement, after all, it was the end of the world, and such an opportunity was rare.

"Got it, thanks, boss."

Ye Lei saw that they had been inside for a long time and hadn't come out yet, so they must have been discussing some shady affair. But that was fine, at least he wouldn't have to make up an excuse.

After waiting for ages, it finally came out.

"Boss, I've already notified the company, and the supplies will be delivered soon. Please come in and have a seat; it's quite hot outside."

The person in charge always speaks very politely; this kind of person is the most difficult to deal with, and you can never figure out what he's thinking.

Is this a good idea?

"No problem, there's a fan inside, it'll be cooler."

"You guys have a great place, it even has electricity."

"We brought our own generator, please excuse the poor quality."

"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony."

Ye Lei walked into the room out of curiosity, wanting to see what they were up to. As soon as he sat down, the manager brought him a cup of tea, apparently treating him like a VIP customer!

However, those henchmen quickly left, and Ye Lei, seeing the direction they were heading, instantly understood.

Perfect timing! This is a good opportunity to train Chen Xueer and Xu Jiao. If they can't handle it, they won't be so stupid that they don't even know how to shout. Ye Lei then leisurely picked up his tea and started drinking.

The four of them walked and laughed cautiously until they reached the Mercedes SUV.

Chen Xueer knew their intentions at a glance.

"Bang bang bang..." They knocked on the glass. Xu Jiao was about to press down on the glass when Chen Xue'er quickly stopped her and pressed down on her own side of the glass.

"What's up?"

Chen Xueer asked.

"My beauty, let's have a chat!"

"What should we talk about?"

Chen Xueer smiled charmingly, and the young man was almost bewitched.

"Tell your brother, what's your name?"

What's the benefit of telling you?

What benefits do you want?

The younger brother had already placed his hands on the glass, worried that Chen Xueer would roll it up, and then there would be nothing he could do.

"It's so hot! Is there any water to drink?"

Chen Xueer even deliberately pulled her clothes down a bit; she truly is a little devil.

"Water? Yes, there is. Go and bring the beautiful lady a glass of water."

My little brother is completely infatuated with Chen Xueer.

Soon, another person brought him a glass of water.

"Come, my beauty, have some water."

The younger brother handed the water in, and Chen Xueer touched it gently with her hand.

"Oh dear, it's so hot, I want some ice water!"

"There's no ice water here. You'll only get some if you come back with me!"

After the younger brother finished speaking, he was about to touch Chen Xue'er's face with his other hand. At that moment, Chen Xue'er grabbed the hot water and splashed it all over his face.

"You...you bitch!"

Just as the younger brother was about to retaliate, Chen Xueer pulled out a pistol and pressed it against his forehead, which terrified everyone.

"My beauty, don't joke around, is this real?"

The little brother was startled by the sudden change; that cold, hard feeling was definitely not plastic.

"Fake? Want to try it?"

Chen Xueer changed her charming attitude, her face turned serious, and she sneered.

"No, no! It might go off!"

"A lowlife like you is lucky to have met me, and you still dare to lay a hand on me."

"Bang..."

Without hesitation, Chen Xueer pulled the trigger. The gunshot startled the others, who scattered and fled. Chen Xueer and Xu Jiao were not about to give them a chance.

"Bang bang bang..." After a burst of gunfire, everyone lay on the ground, no longer moving.
