Chapter 327 Overnight Stay in the Neighborhood

Zhou Chong was prepared. The dozens of level-three ability users who hadn't contributed much at the food street suddenly appeared on the truck bed.

The trucks led the way, and then the dozens of level-three ability users cleared out the zombies. Because the road was narrow, the terrain was advantageous to them.

This is a new residential area, not very large, with a total of eight buildings, each with thirty-three floors. The occupancy rate is quite high, and the total population should be around two thousand.

Excluding those who escaped and those who became zombies and wandered out of the community, there are at least 1,700 or 1,800 zombies in this community.

As long as there are no level 3 zombies, level 3 ability users can handle these zombies.

However, due to the large number of zombies, some still managed to squeeze into the back of the car through the narrow gaps.

Ling Ran and their car were quite far behind when a zombie suddenly appeared out of nowhere. A female zombie appeared through the car window; she was wearing revealing pajamas, which looked like they'd been torn apart, with only one strap hanging from her shoulder. She had no visible wounds, suggesting she had mutated naturally.

She bared her teeth at Ling Ran inside the car window, seemingly an unlucky soul who hadn't awakened any special abilities, and kept pounding on the window. Although she was strong, she wasn't strong enough to shatter the specially made glass.

Gu Zijing, in the driver's seat, quickly used her mental abilities to attack, and in a short while, the zombie fell straight backward.

Following that, a few more slipped through the net, but Gu Zijing dealt with them all.

Pei Xiu didn't forget to get out of the car and dig out the crystal cores from the heads of these zombies.

The superhumans in front probably couldn't handle it, and we can already see that many level-three superhumans have emerged from the carriages of the following vehicles, all fighting against the zombies.

The level-two ability users had exhausted their abilities in the recent battle at the food street and were now recuperating.

While the level three ability users still had some energy left, they also had pure crystal cores. If they needed to go back to the car to absorb some energy, they might be able to fight again.

It took more than two hours to finally get rid of most of the zombies in the neighborhood.

All the level-three ability users returned to the carriage looking as if they had been drained dry, their faces pale. They then held a steamed bun in one hand and a pure crystal core in the other.

The other level-two ability users watched with envy. They had also been allocated impurity-free crystal cores for this mission, but there were only three. Since there was no danger at the moment, they were naturally reluctant to use them.

It's already past four in the afternoon.

Although it was still bright at seven o'clock, everyone was exhausted, so Zhou Chong told them to rest in the car.

After everything is settled, we'll rest in this neighborhood for the night and go to the rice mill tomorrow.

Ling Ran hadn't expected to have to spend the night here. Upon hearing this, she got out of the car and decided to take a stroll around the neighborhood.

Everyone else got out of the car when they saw her get out.

At the front of the vehicle, there were countless zombie corpses. Many people had been injured by the zombies' supernatural abilities, especially those who were bleeding. They all returned to the carriage, where accompanying medical personnel provided first aid and bandages.

Others were digging for crystal cores.

Zhou Chong was leading his men to investigate the area when he saw Ling Ran approaching. He told the others to continue, while he himself jogged up to Ling Ran and asked, "Sir, what are your instructions?"

"I'll just browse around, you go ahead and do your thing."

"Yes, then please let me know if you need anything, sir."

After saying this, Zhou Chong hurriedly went to count the number of casualties for the day.
