The group arrived as usual, and on the cleaned main road, Xu Xing took out his fully charged phone.
He opened the Jinghai City map that he had already downloaded, and this factor was one of the major guarantees that made him dare to come out.
With a map, you can avoid dangerous areas and quickly find supply points in various locations.
Jinghai City, where Xu Xing is located, is a relatively large urban area with a diverse mix of people, so he must always be on guard against sudden dangers.
Xu Xing scanned the map of Jinghai City and, considering his own situation, decided to go to a medium-sized hospital not far from here first.
In the apocalypse, besides food, the most precious thing is medicine.
Although superhumans have physical abilities that surpass those of normal people, some injuries do require external medication.
Moreover, most people today are normal, ordinary people. In such harsh conditions, a common cold could be fatal.
The most direct reason is the lack of medicine.
Before the apocalypse, it was virtually impossible to obtain a large quantity of medicine through legitimate channels.
For all kinds of controlled drugs, real-name registration is required in order to purchase small quantities.
Now that the opportunity to get something for free was right in front of him, Xu Xing couldn't resist going over to search for it.
Moreover, the distance isn't too far, only about ten kilometers, which a pickup truck can cover quickly.
Having chosen their target, Xu Xing didn't hesitate any longer. He told the group to get into the car quickly and head towards the hospital.
After driving for a while, the pickup truck turned right at the intersection ahead, crashing into a car blocking its way. The loud noise made Xu Xing feel uneasy.
There were actually wandering zombies on the road and even all around, but because of the pickup truck's speed, they were basically left far behind before they even got close.
Xu Xing didn't intend to waste time with these zombies. After all, even though he was a superhuman, he still consumed a lot of physical strength every time he used his powers.
If we conserve our energy now, we can be prepared to deal with any unexpected situations later.
After turning right onto a shortcut, Xu Xing discovered that it was actually a commercial street. Judging from the various advertisements on both sides, Xu Xing knew that this was most likely a place selling all kinds of snacks and restaurants.
In such places, there must be a lot of supplies in the kitchens, but most of these are made and eaten on the spot.
Putting aside the issue of existing stock, in the past two or three days, some things may have already rotted away.
What's strange is that this commercial street, despite its seemingly bustling atmosphere, should still have quite a few people around at midnight when the apocalypse begins.
But the entire street was eerily quiet. There wasn't a single living human in sight, nor even a wandering zombie.
While Xu Xing was still thinking, he suddenly heard a series of creaking sounds. These sounds were very sharp and made people feel uncomfortable.
Xu Xing looked up but didn't find anything suspicious.
Only then did they realize that these sounds were coming from underground.
Xu Xing suddenly thought of a chilling possibility.
Considering the surrounding environment, with its various snack stalls and restaurants, there must be a lot of food waste, much of which vendors will dump in the sewers.
Where there are people, there is a world of intrigue; where there is food, there will be all sorts of rats.
This means the entire sewer system will definitely be teeming with rats, and now that the zombie outbreak is starting, then...
A swarm of rats!
Susie, sitting in the back seat, urgently reminded him.
The creaking sounds around them grew louder and louder, and the manhole covers in the surrounding area began to tremble slightly.
With a series of sharp cracking sounds, the surrounding manhole covers were violently blown off, and a dark mass of creatures emerged from the bottom.
If you look closely, it doesn't look like a mouse at all!
The most common of these are two to three times larger than the rats we usually imagine.
There were even quite a few large rats, about the same size as ducks, mixed in with them.
Even the rat king at the very front had glossy black skin, a thick and powerful tail, and sharp claws growing from the bottom of its four legs.
Zheng Xiong stood proudly at the very front of the line, while a continuous stream of rats kept emerging from the rear.
Seeing this shocking scene, Xu Xing already felt a pang of regret.
Although he and Ye Kai were very capable, even capable of instantly killing these rats, they couldn't withstand the sheer number of them.
If there were only a few dozen or a hundred, there might still be a chance to solve the problem, but judging from the current situation, it's estimated that a large area of mutated rats are gathering here.
Although Su Xixi already had the ability to control mutated beasts at this time.
However, for social creatures like these, it is difficult to control their thoughts as long as their rat king is still around. Besides, Su Xixi has only just advanced and has no experience at all.
Judging from the energy fluctuations and size, the rat king in front should be at the same level as Xu Xing, both being mid-level 2.
Of course, with their talent, even if they were at the mid-stage of level two, they probably couldn't beat Gouzi, who had just advanced to level two.
The most troublesome are the secondary mutated rats on the periphery.
Although there are many of them, none of them have even reached level one, but in terms of vitality, they are extremely tenacious.
The rats were so fast that they even surrounded the path the pickup truck was trying to retreat.
Xu Xing had already planned to charge forward, but he was afraid that the mutated rats would bite his tires out without thinking.
