Doomsday Grocery Store

Tang Yu’an’s family ran a small grocery store, and every day after school, he would help out by watching over the shop.

That afternoon, his parents had gone out to buy supplies, leaving o...

Chapter 250

Chapter 250

The manager of Linhai Town is called Li Zhentian. After hearing the report from his subordinates, he calmed down a little and looked at the people around him.

"Shangshen Sect? Have you heard of it?"

Everyone around shook their heads, only a big man seemed to be hesitant to speak.

"Da Biao, what do you have to say?" Li Zhentian pointed at him.

"Reporting to the Lord, we discovered someone selling sea salt privately in Guanyu Village, but we couldn't find out how he sold the salt..."

This Da Biao was the one who dragged Xiao Hailan out from under the bed that day.

He said, "Our boss just captured this guy and is preparing to interrogate him. Could he be the one the mysterious man was talking about?"

Li Zhentian couldn't help but look at the team leader standing next to him.

"Li Peng, speak!"

Li Peng is Li Zhentian's adopted son - but Li Zhentian has dozens of adopted sons like him.

After being called, Li Peng quickly responded, "The man is on the way..."

"idiot!"

Li Zhentian slapped him on the head and said, "Go and bring him here right now!"

Li Peng opened his mouth, but finally agreed and left with his men.

What he actually wanted to say was...

It's probably too late now, as the steel behemoth has already headed towards Guanyu Village.

-

The tricycle was driving on the bumpy dirt road, and the people escorting Haijing were about to arrive at the center of Linhai Town.

"Why is it raining suddenly?"

The person sitting in the car seat looked up at the sky which suddenly became overcast and began to rain heavily.

"Great, just in time to cool down!"

"Look ahead! Is there something wrong?"

They saw in front of them that at first there were only a few people standing there stupidly, but in the blink of an eye, hundreds of them appeared out of nowhere.

The people on the truck bed couldn't help rubbing their eyes, wondering if it was because of the heavy rain that they were dazzled.

The driver braked immediately.

However, something strange happened. The people in front were approaching them at an extremely fast speed.

Every time they blinked, they disappeared. Every time they blinked again, they not only reappeared, but also moved closer to them, and there were more and more people!

The four of them were terrified, and Haijing was also stunned by the scene.

The rain blocked their vision, and they could only see a huge, blurry black shadow behind the crowd, moving closer and closer, as if driving the crowd away.

When a crowd appeared out of nowhere around them, the four finally reacted.

Just as they were about to abandon the car and flee, they disappeared out of thin air, leaving only the whale tied up with ropes, unable to move in the car bed.

Looking at the huge black shadow gradually approaching in the rain, Hai Jing was shrouded in despair.

At this moment, he seemed to be back in the sea again, struggling in the raging waves, as small as a speck of dust surrounded by giant mutant creatures.

only……

Thinking of his daughter who was still waiting for him in the village, Haijing's heart was filled with the courage to survive.

He tried hard to break free from the ropes and escape from here.

Finally, when he fell from the truck bed, the huge black shadow came to about ten meters away from him, and then... stopped.

Hai Jing was stunned.

He stared blankly at the steel giant in front of him. This... this is... He seemed to have seen something similar in compulsory education?

It seems... it's not a mutant creature!

Then, he saw a system message pop up: [You have obtained permission to stay in "Ping An Grocery Store"].

Then, the heavy rain suddenly stopped.

No, it didn't stop.

The rain was still falling, but it was blocked from above and not a drop could fall.

Haijing stared blankly at the steel behemoth that should be called a "car". The doors on both sides opened, the steps were lowered, and two figures walked down.

They wore black cloaks and had masks, one silver and one black, on their faces.

The two men did not step on the ground, but flew directly towards him after getting out of the car.

The whale stared at them blankly, at a loss.

"Sorry for the wait."

The silver-white masked man flew in front of him and landed. The clear and clean voice of the young man sounded gentle and warm, like a breeze blowing past the ears of a whale.

He looked at the masked man stupidly as he reached out his hand to him.

His hands were covered in snow-white velvet gloves, which looked clean and elegant. To Hai Jing, it was a shocking beauty that he had never seen before.

The hand reached out to him, landed on the rough and dirty hemp rope around him, and then twisted it gently.

“Snap—”

Along with this crisp sound, the hemp rope tied to the whale, which was as thick as a finger, broke.

If I say that the shock I just felt was because it was the first time I appreciated that kind of clean and visually impactful beauty.

Now, this shock is mixed with awe of the powerful force.

The string in Haijing's mind was finally connected.

He glanced at the message board, then at the silver-white mask of the cloaked man, and said in a trance, "Are you, are you Lord Silver Light?"

The cloaked man nodded slightly and reached out as if to help him up.

Hai Jing was so frightened that he stepped back repeatedly, "Lord God's Messenger, I, I can get up by myself!"

Then he got up from the ground.

Haijing still felt like he was in a dream at this moment. Did the messenger of God really appear in front of him and rescue him from danger?

His gaze turned to the silent man in the black mask.

So this is... Lord Wu Yue?

"Are you not hurt?" The clear and gentle young man's voice sounded again, bringing Haijing back to his senses.

He shook his head hurriedly: "No, no..."

Then, he saw the silver-masked man stretching out his hand towards him, and a bright light appeared from the palm of his snow-white glove.

Then, he gently threw out the ball of light, and the ball of light enveloped the whale.

The whale had never felt so warm and relaxed.

The bruises on his body from the beatings were disappearing, and the blood marks from the hemp rope were healing quickly.

The pain and fatigue faded away, and Haijing's anxious heart slowly calmed down.

As he gazed devoutly, the man in the silver mask threw another ball of light at him, this time taking away the filth on his body.

When the light faded, the whale's body was clean except for being wet from the rain, and there was no trace of dirt on it.

"Go change into clean clothes."

Tang Yu'an had a new set of clothes in his hand and handed it to Hai Jing, asking him to change out of the wet clothes to avoid catching a cold and getting sick.

Hai Jing took it with great trepidation, but did not dare to do anything offensive in front of the messenger of God.

He ran behind a nearby tree with the clothes in his hands.

Tang Yu'an ignored him and looked at the back of the RV. Because he had turned on the "closing store" mode, the RV became invisible again.

The people outside couldn't see or get close, so they all gathered outside the protective barrier and watched.

"The person has been rescued. What should we do next?" Zhou Qi asked him.

Tang Yu'an thought for a moment and asked, "The administrator of Linhai Town...are you sure you can handle him?"

They had no experience fighting against mid- to high-level human psychics, and Tang Yu'an didn't know how strong the other party was, but...

"If we defeat him, can we take over Linhai Town and become the administrators here?"

They naturally try to find ways to cooperate and win over managers like Hongli and Lan Yunqing, but the managers of Linhai Town not only engage in monopoly, but also exploit ordinary fishermen.

It is better to cut the Gordian knot and eradicate such evil forces directly.

They don't have to be restricted when building a branch here, they can just let go, just like a home in a deserted city.

"Try it?" Zhou Qi did not object.

Tang Yu'an smiled and nodded. He did not rush to find anyone, but opened the 3D map of the RV and started operating.

The protective barrier can be retracted after being upgraded and expanded.

Tang Yu'an retracted the protective barrier to a distance of five or six meters.

Hai Jing, who had just changed his clothes, saw the RV and the two messengers suddenly disappear from his sight.

He ran forward subconsciously, and at a certain moment he passed through an invisible barrier, and saw that the steel behemoth and the messenger of God who saved him were still standing there.

The whale was stunned and ran away hesitantly, then ran back.

After trying two or three times, he was finally sure that he was not dazzled. He couldn't help scratching his head. What kind of magical method was this!

Because the rain outside had stopped, the whale was no longer wet.

He wore comfortable and clean clothes and came before the two divine messengers with some restraint, "Lord Yin Guang, Lord Wu Yue..."

Tang Yu'an nodded and said to him, "Go to the car first."

He will lift the closure of the store later. It is daytime now, and the aftermath of the battle may involve Hai Jing, so it is safer to hide in the car.

Hai Jing was about to respond when he suddenly caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye, and a fire of hatred suddenly ignited in his eyes.

It turned out that Li Peng, Da Biao and others were chasing after them.

"What's wrong?" Tang Yu'an looked at the pursuers, "Do you know them?"

"It was that bald guy... Hai Lan was hiding under the bed at the time, and he dragged her out. If it weren't for the leader next to her... Hai Lan would have..."

Haijing clenched his fists and couldn't help trembling all over when he thought of the scene at that time.

Since that day, he has often had nightmares, dreaming of... Hai Jing couldn't help but grit his teeth, "Such a beast, I have to kill him with my own hands, so that no more innocent children will be harmed!"

"Do you want to join the fight?"

Tang Yu'an watched Hai Jing take out a gun from his personal storage.

When they first met Chi Hao, they also got a gun from him, but they have never used it yet.

He did not try to persuade her any further, but instead looked at the group of people who had just arrived.

Li Peng and his men stopped. He didn't know why he and his men were able to get close to this steel behemoth.

Looking at the two masked men, he couldn't help swallowing and felt an indescribable sense of oppression.

"You are indeed in the same group!" Da Biao, who was standing next to him, spoke first.

Li Peng cursed him in his heart, "Idiot!" Just as he was about to speak, the man wearing the silver mask said, "You are the one who touched our Shangshen Sect's people?"

It was clearly a clear and pleasant young voice, but Li Peng's heart trembled when he heard it.

Just as he was about to apologize, he saw the silver-white masked man gently wave his hand. Li Peng thought he was going to attack, so he subconsciously took a step back, only to find out——

The opponent's attack was not directed at him.

Da Biao, who was beside him, suddenly squatted down, holding his stomach.

"you……"

“Haha ...

A burst of laughter suddenly rang out. Da Biao covered his stomach, laughing uncontrollably and crying out in pain.

At this time, the masked man waved again.

Da Biao, who was still laughing, suddenly burst into tears again. He laughed and cried at the same time, as if he was crazy. Everyone around him quickly stayed away from him.

Tang Yu'an waved his hand again, which was of course just a cover-up. In fact, he was using his visual sense to make the magic marbles fall on the man.

This time, he hit the unlucky marble.

Haijing raised his gun and pointed it at Da Biao, but his hands were shaking violently. It was obvious that this was his first time killing someone.

There is no rule prohibiting killing in the "rules" of the Shangshen religion.

Because it is unrealistic to completely ban killing in such a doomsday situation, Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi did not add this rule.

Seeing Hai Jing raising his gun, Tang Yu'an did not stop him, but just turned his head slightly.

He felt that the bald man deserved it, just like the two men who had attacked them at night at the foot of Mount Jufeng.

However, he still felt sorry for such a scene.

At this time, Zhou Qi gently held his hand.

Tang Yu'an took a deep breath and shook his hand back.

No one present noticed their little action, because...

"Bang--"

With a gunshot, Haijing fired the shot. However, due to the strong recoil, he inevitably missed the target the second time he fired.

However, Da Biao, who was lying on the ground crying and laughing, suddenly raised his head and the bullet hit him right between the eyebrows.

A bloody hole appeared on his forehead, and he fell to the ground, as if he was seeking death.

After firing this shot, the whale fell to the ground.

Having said that, Li Peng and his men were frightened by this scene and took a few steps back. The person standing at the end of the team took the opportunity to escape.

The way the people from the Shangshen Sect fight is so weird!

However, when the rest of the people wanted to escape, a powerful voice sounded behind them.

"Who dares to run?!"

Everyone looked back, then showed fear on their faces, and quickly retreated to both sides, revealing a path for people to pass through.

It turned out that Li Zhentian discovered that they could get close to the RV, so he brought his men to chase after it.

To the people of Linhai Town, Li Zhentian is like a big devil. They are willing to follow him not only because they can abuse their power, but also because of his special abilities.

As the manager of Linhai Town, his abilities extend beyond just making it rain.

His water-based ability can instantly drain a person of their moisture! As long as they are covered by his rain, they are under his control.

With such strength, Li Zhentian has ruled Linhai Town for so many years, like a local emperor.

However, he met his match today.

It was unknown what means these two mysterious people from the Shangshen Sect used to prevent them from getting close to him and also to isolate him from the rain. It could be said that they completely restrained him.

Li Zhentian was still thinking about how to solve this difficult problem, but he didn't expect that these two people would take the initiative to cancel the method they had just used.

Without any nonsense, he waved his hand again to make it rain, and at the same time asked the five sixth-level psychics who followed him to attack together.

Tang Yu'an quickly grabbed the whale, and the umbrella that had been waiting nearby flew over and covered their heads.

It blocked their figures and also blocked the rain.

Tang Yu'an opened the car door and stuffed Haijing in. The moment the door opened, the four pets that had been waiting for a long time ran out.

In the blink of an eye, they all grew to enormous size.

When the four mutant creatures suddenly appeared, Li Zhentian and others were stunned.

But after all, they were all sixth-level psychics, so they quickly regained their composure, each picked one, and started fighting.

Li Zhentian's eyes were fixed on Zhou Qi.

He controlled the rain to pour down on him, but for some reason, the water evaporated as soon as it touched his skin.

A fire-type mutant?

Li Zhentian's eyes flashed with disdain. "So what if he's a fire element? Look how he puts out this fire with water!"

This Shangshen Sect, which appeared out of nowhere, really doesn't take their Linhai Town seriously.

Although they do have some strength, they are not pushovers!

He controlled the rain to gather and form a huge ball of water, wrapping Zhou Qi around.

On the other side, Tang Yu'an was also assigned a sixth-level mutant, but as mentioned before, he now has too many methods.

Happy, sad, unlucky!

After being hit by three marbles in turn, the sixth-level mutant fell down in less than a minute.

After all, when facing an invisible enemy, the opponent can still attack you through visual inspection, and once hit, you will be controlled for ten minutes.

Just tell me how to fight?

Seeing the other party fainting after hitting a rock, Tang Yu'an shifted his target and looked at other battlefields.

There's no need to worry about black pearls, gold ingots, or lucky money, but silver coins...

Surprisingly, Tang Yu'an found that there was nothing wrong with the silver coins.

Because Li Zhentian was concentrating on dealing with Zhou Qi, the heavy rain stopped again. The big white dog, which was soaked all over, jumped around the psychic, shaking off the water droplets.

It was grinning with a happy smile, as if it was playing with the psychic.

The psychic also had a weird silly grin on his face, chasing the silver coins and having a lot of fun.

Tang Yu'an observed for a while and found that whenever the psychic showed a look of clarity on his face and wanted to launch an attack, Silver Coin would shout at him.

Then, the psychic would smile foolishly again and continue playing the chasing game with the silver coin.

Tang Yuan: 0.0

Huh? Is this the power of silver coins?

Usually Wangcai chases and plays with it, so he shouldn’t be controlled by it, right?

If it's true, then this ability... seems a bit interesting?

Tang Yu'an observed for a while and found that Silver Coin seemed to be a little tired of playing, so he used magic marbles to deal with the psychic.

He casually threw the person next to the first unconscious mutant.

Yuanbao and Black Pearl have already finished the battle.

First of all, the difference in size is difficult to make up, and Yuanbao and Black Pearl are very smart, and they often go to the Giant Forest to hunt.

They have been with Tang Yu'an and Zhou Qi in the giant forest for more than two years, and they are no longer the same as before.

The remaining mutant still has the ability to fight, but he is covered with spiders, so it is only a matter of time before he is defeated.

At this time, Tang Yu'an walked out from under the umbrella.

He threw the four psychics together.

Li Peng and others were pushed to the edge of the battlefield, but they didn't dare to leave. They could only huddle together, trembling and looking at Tang Yu'an and his four giant beasts with fear.

The Shangshen Cult is so powerful...why have I never heard of it before?

Hai Jing, who was stuffed into the RV by Tang Yu'an, was now leaning on the window and looking at the battle outside. He was also stunned.

He was still worried. Although he was saved, what would happen to the villagers of Guanyu Village in the future?

It's impossible for the two divine messengers to stay and protect them forever...

However, now, he found that he seemed to have no need to worry about this at all. The people who should be worried were clearly the managers of Linhai Town!

At this time, the battle on Zhou Qi's side also came to an end.

Li Zhentian is undoubtedly the most powerful psychic in Linhai Town, and he has rich combat experience.

After discovering that the water ball could not do anything to Zhou Qi and could not suck him into a dried corpse, he fought and retreated, using the terrain as cover.

"You are basically human! Stop playing tricks!"

Zhou Qi said nothing and just kept on attacking.

Although he couldn't compare to the old man in terms of single-system strength, he felt that he should be around level five.

However, due to the existence of multiple superpowers, he had too many means of attack, and when combined, Li Zhentian was unable to withstand them!

Finally, they fought to the seaside.

"Don't push me, you little brat!" Li Zhentian stood on the shore, pointing at Zhou Qi and yelling in a timid manner.

He had been dominating Linhai Town for twenty or thirty years, and never imagined that one day he would be forced to this point by two young men.

Their methods are truly bizarre! But... gods? Pah! These are clearly two humans, and they're definitely not very old. He can sense them through his supernatural powers!

"Hand over the power of Linhai Town, and I can give you a way out." Zhou Qi said in a calm voice, holding the flying sickle in his hand.

"You're dreaming!"

Li Zhentian sneered, "Even if I destroy this place, I won't hand it over to you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he hugged his body in pain, but still let out a wild laugh.

Then, under the gaze of Zhou Qi and the fishermen on the beach, Li Zhentian's body began to swell and mutate rapidly.

In the blink of an eye, a giant sea monster seven or eight meters tall appeared on the beach.

All the people who saw this scene screamed and fled in all directions.

Tang Yu'an, who had just chased after him and was halfway there, could no longer maintain his demeanor as a "God's messenger" and started screaming in panic.

“No!”

Hearing his shout, Li Zhentian, who still retained a trace of rationality, burst into hearty laughter.

The deafening roar of the sea beast instantly spread throughout the entire Linhai Town, plunging everyone into fear.

However, Li Zhentian gradually discovered that something was wrong.

The young man who had been chasing him and fighting him all the way did not have any special reaction after he turned into a strange beast.

He was still suspended in mid-air, watching him quietly.

If he lifted Zhou Qi's mask at this moment, he would see that his eyes had turned red.

Li Zhentian felt a sudden surge of fear in his heart, which prompted him to raise his giant palm and slap Zhou Qi.

However, Zhou Qi dodged his attack with just a slight dodge.

The next moment, just when Zhou Qi was about to attack, the sea beast transformed by Li Zhentian turned around and dived into the sea!

The panic prompted it to flee, and Li Zhentian, who only had a trace of rationality left, could not resist the body's instinctive reaction.

Why did he run away? Was that young man really that scary?

Soon, he knew the answer.

because--

The young man actually chased after it directly. He was obviously not even as big as the sea beast's hand. However, when he stood on the sea beast's head and put his hand on it, the huge creature froze.

A bit of blue fluorescence struggled, but was sucked out of the sea monster's body without any resistance.

The author has something to say:

An An: Brother Xiaoqi, don’t eat anything randomly!
