Apocalypse: Stockpiling After Divorcing the Overbearing CEO

In her previous life, she was a full-time wife to a CEO, but was tragically robbed of his love by an internet influencer. After the apocalypse descended, she was left to wander the streets.

F...

Chapter 157 The Hoarding Ends

The zombies pounced on Ye Ning like madmen, swarming towards her like locusts. Ye Ning felt as if her heart was about to stop.

"Absolute Territory!" At this critical moment, a deep voice rang out.

A huge, crackling light screen enveloped the two of them. The crazed zombies crashed into the light screen, their bodies instantly going limp, as if their spines had been suddenly removed. They lay on the ground convulsing, unable to move.

The remaining zombies, fearless of death, continued to charge at the light barrier, and soon collapsed into a pile of rotten flesh on the ground.

The grayish-blue zombies twitched on the ground, some with half their heads smashed off, yet they still struggled to stand up.

"Ugh!" Ye Ning finally couldn't hold back and vomited. No matter when, these zombies were always so disgusting.

"Ye Ning, are you alright?" Xiao Jingchen quickly put down the tube in his hand and came over to pat Ye Ning's back.

"Jingchen, I'm fine!" Ye Ning took out a thermos from her spatial storage and rinsed her mouth with warm water.

"How could nothing be wrong? It's all my fault. I should have insisted that you go back right away!" Xiao Jingchen tenderly tidied Ye Ning's hair at her temples.

"Jing Chen, how long can your Absolute Domain last now?" Ye Ning asked.

She remembered that Xiao Jingchen's superpower in his previous life could only last for ten minutes at most. Now that it had been upgraded, she wondered how long it could last.

"I haven't tried it myself, but it's probably around 30 minutes!" Xiao Jingchen picked up Ye Ning in a princess carry.

"Ye Ning, let's go back!" He was starting to regret it; he should have let Long Fei come over in the first place, at least he could have protected Ye Ning.

"But what about the oil tanks?" Ye Ning hesitated.

"We're almost done filling; there's a little bit left in the last jar."

The number of zombies increased, and they kept crashing into the light barrier. Under their suicidal attacks, even the electric light on the light barrier dimmed considerably.

Ye Ning jumped off Xiao Jingchen and put the remaining oil cans into her spatial storage.

Their haul this time was enormous; they stockpiled at least 300 tons of fuel, which is priceless and unavailable in the era of superpowers.

"Jingchen, let's go quickly!" Ye Ning urged.

"Silly girl, are you finally scared now? What about when you were greedy for money?" Xiao Jingchen picked Ye Ning's nose.

At this moment, the zombie's corpse outside the light curtain was already over a meter tall.

Ye Ning lifted her foot and walked outside. She carefully tried to avoid the zombies, but found that there was nowhere to put her foot. She stepped on a zombie's arm as soon as she took a step.

With a "plop!" sound, a stream of dark green pus and blood gushed out from the broken arm.

Luckily, Ye Ning dodged quickly, otherwise she would have been covered in splatter. Even so, her little leather boots were still stained, and the entire boots were covered in dark green, foul-smelling pus and blood.

"Oh dear!" Ye Ning looked at the zombie corpses surrounding the perimeter, which resembled a fence, and was puzzled.

She wasn't too scared, but these zombies were just too disgusting.

"Come on, let me carry you!" Xiao Jingchen decisively reached out his hand to Ye Ning.

This time, Ye Ning did not refuse. She decisively took off her shoes and climbed onto Xiao Jingchen's back.

"Hold on tight, my little princess! We're off!" Xiao Jingchen firmly supported Ye Ning's legs and walked steadily towards the door.

Ye Ning nestled against his broad back like a kitten, feeling his strong heartbeat, her fingers playfully drawing circles on his shoulders as if she were playing a gentle piano piece.

"Alright, stop fooling around!" Xiao Jingchen grabbed Ye Ning's playful fingers.

Throughout this process, zombies relentlessly attacked them like locusts, but thanks to the protection of the Absolute Domain, they were unable to truly get close.

Xiao Jingchen carried Ye Ning all the way onto the helicopter.

Meanwhile, the parking lot was also filled with zombies. When they saw living people, they attacked them like leeches smelling blood.

The Absolute Territory was growing dimmer under their attacks. Like parasites, they clung tightly to the helicopter, the glass, and the propeller, their eyes filled with greed as they watched Ye Ning and the others.

"Ye Ning, hold on tight!" Xiao Jingchen carefully fastened Ye Ning's seatbelt and then turned the key.

Under Xiao Jingchen's control, the helicopter took off, and a cloud of blood mist instantly rose above it. This was because the zombies that had been lying on the rotor blades had been smashed into pieces by the high-speed rotating rotor blades.

Then the helicopter suddenly turned around, spinning 360 degrees, and the zombies clinging to the helicopter windows and roof were instantly thrown to the ground.

"Ye Ning, are we still going to the coal mine? Or should we go straight back to the shelter?" Xiao Jingchen asked tentatively.

"Of course I'll go!" Ye Ning answered without hesitation.

“But…” Xiao Jingchen hesitated and looked at Ye Ning.

"I'm fine. Since we're already out, I might as well stockpile everything!" Ye Ning said nonchalantly.

Seeing Ye Ning's insistence, Xiao Jingchen, who had already planned to turn back towards the shelter, quickly turned around again and headed southeast.

The coal mine is the furthest from the direction of the zombie outbreak on the map.

Although the location is also in the suburbs, it is exactly the opposite of the path of the zombie outbreak.

With the helicopter accelerating, the two quickly arrived at their destination.

The coal piled up like mountains was directly dumped on a huge playground.

This time it went very smoothly; Ye Ning directly stored all the coal into her spatial storage.

Thus, this trip to stock up on goods has come to a successful conclusion. Although there were some twists and turns along the way, at least the result was good.

"Jingchen, let's hurry back to the shelter!" Ye Ning urged impatiently. She didn't know how things were at the shelter, and all she wanted was to get back as soon as possible.

With the roar of the engine, Ye Ning and Xiao Jingchen returned fully loaded and sped towards the shelter.
