In the apocalypse, a girl who dresses neatly must have powerful backing.
Otherwise, a girl would never appear in a crowd looking completely clean and tidy.
Because in the apocalypse, the law has zero binding force on everyone, and even Attorney Bai is unemployed. What fairness and justice can there be in this world?
Everything depends on strength.
Some thugs who used to bully girls during the apocalypse are now consciously staying away from girls who are dressed neatly.
They were afraid of provoking someone they couldn't afford to offend.
The Yunhua Security Base is very large; its living quarters alone are much larger than those of the Huofeng Security Base.
There are many people with superpowers, but first-level superpowered individuals are not popular; they can only be considered slightly above average.
Bai Xizhu even saw a first-level ability user sitting dejectedly on the ground in the living area, giving up on himself.
There are many zombies in Shanghai. People with first-level superpowers don't dare to venture deep into Shanghai. They can only look for supplies on the outskirts and carry out some relatively easy tasks.
Those less powerful Tier 1 ability users are similar to ordinary people elsewhere, and they don't feel superior in the safe base.
The two walked side by side, without stopping in the crowd, and went straight through the gate of the living area to wander around the Yunhua Security Base.
On the surface, Yunhua Security Base was the most apocalyptic-like place they had ever seen.
Occasionally, you can see a few children playing and laughing in the base, with bright smiles on their faces.
Youth is unaware of the taste of sorrow.
They probably don't even know the meaning of the apocalypse.
Judging from their clothing, they must be the children of powerful people.
Some children who don't have the protection of powerful figures can barely afford a full meal, so how could they possibly have the energy to run around?
Besides the children playing around, you can also see vendors selling cigarettes and alcohol.
Occasionally one or two people would inquire about the prices of cigarettes and alcohol, but after receiving the prices, they would shake their heads and walk away.
Even so, the vendor did not try to save his business.
There will always be people who buy these "luxury goods".
Perhaps it was because Bai Xizhu and her companion were dressed too neatly that the vendor quickly spotted them and approached them with his cigarettes and alcohol.
"Would you like some cigarettes or alcohol? I have all sorts of cheap, good stuff here. If you want, I'll sell it to you at a discount."
The vendor was a middle-aged man with a greasy smile plastered on his face.
"How much?"
Bai Xizhu casually pointed to a pack of cigarettes.
This is one of the more expensive types before the apocalypse, costing around seventy yuan per pack.
"One hundred ordinary crystal cores or one first-order crystal core." The man's smile became even more greasy.
Crystal nuclei are divided into ordinary crystal nuclei, first-order crystal nuclei, and second-order crystal nuclei, with no upper limit for now.
The conversion units between crystal nuclei are actually unstable; a first-order crystal nucleus can be used as one hundred ordinary crystal nuclei.
A third-order crystal core should never be used as one hundred second-order crystal cores.
The higher the grade of the crystal core, the more terrifying the energy it contains, making it difficult for high-level zombies to hunt and even more difficult to find.
Low-level crystal cores are often used to buy things or as currency, while high-level crystal cores are collected and stored away for ability users to absorb.
Therefore, it is rare for people to use higher-order crystal nuclei instead of lower-order ones.
Bai Xizhu glanced at Leng Yebai, who very consciously took out a first-order crystal core from his pocket and handed it to the vendor.
The vendor's eyes lit up, and he quickly reached out to take it, then handed the item to Leng Yebai.
Leng Yebai doesn't smoke or drink; he simply put the items in his pocket.
"Where is our black market?" Bai Xizhu finally asked.
"Just keep walking straight ahead and you'll get there." The middle-aged man had just made a small sale and was in a good mood. He glanced away and lowered his voice, saying, "You guys look like you've just arrived. If you're going to the black market, don't buy any meat from there."
Meat is a good thing; people will eat meat when they crave it.
However, there are no artificial breeding farms in the apocalypse, and the only source of meat is hunting.
If it were just ordinary mutant animals or common poultry, it would be fine to eat them, but there are always some unscrupulous vendors who use the meat of animals that cannot be eaten.
For example, animals whose mouths and stomachs contain the zombie virus.
Bai Xizhu nodded slightly, and then walked towards the black market with Leng Yebai.
In the black market, the best place to find out about the security base is at the center of gossip.
As we walked further, the number of people increased, indicating that the black market was quite popular here.
"Brother Leng!"
Suddenly, a clear and melodious voice came from behind, carrying a hint of excitement.
Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai were also visiting the safety base for the first time and didn't know anyone there. They didn't react at all when they heard the voice.
Leng Yebai isn't the only person with the surname Leng!
So Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai continued walking forward without stopping.
Bai Xizhu heard footsteps behind her, and soon, a delicate pink figure came to the two of them.
"Brother Leng! It really is you! I never thought I'd see you again!"
Before the delicate figure had even settled down, she pounced on Leng Yebai, seemingly preparing for a warm hug.
Leng Yebai frowned, and just as the delicate figure was about to crash into his arms, he quickly turned to the side.
"ah--"
With a thud.
The delicate figure collapsed to the ground, leaving a long trail of blood on her fair skin on the rough surface.
"Brother Leng, don't you remember me? I'm Ke Rou!"
