Chapter 47: Free Shopping is Really Cool
With a flash of dazzling light, the mutant turned into a human-shaped charcoal before he could even move.
Jiang Mi: “…”Okay.
With Jiang Xun as a powerful fighter, the two of them cleared out all the mutants in the supermarket in half an hour, and the huge supermarket suddenly had more than a dozen more cokes.
Jiang Xun was fighting monsters while Jiang Mi was looting in the supermarket.
All the food and water disappeared, and even the ice cream in the refrigerator was cleared out.
In the fruit and vegetable section, there was only some rotten food and a large number of buzzing flies.
The deformed fly looks like a bluebottle, but is twice as big as a bluebottle and appears even bigger than a wasp. Apart from being larger, there seems to be no obvious deformation.
Jiang Mi discovered that the most important feature of these deformed animals and plants is their body shape.
Almost all animals and plants will increase in size to two to three times their original size after being deformed, and their size will increase further as the infection becomes deeper or the strength becomes stronger.
The swarm of flies were frightened when they saw the two people and ran around everywhere. For a moment, there was a huge buzzing sound in Jiang Mi's ears, as if there were two high-horsepower diesel generators, which made Jiang Mi frown and cover his ears with his hands.
The sound made by a normal fly is already quite irritating, let alone there seem to be hundreds of them here. The sound made by flapping their wings together is simply a sonic attack.
Jiang Xun released several electric arcs in succession before he finally cleared out the group of flies. Without the huge deafening buzzing sound, Jiang Mi put down his hands that were covering his ears and breathed a sigh of relief.
There was no food in the supermarket, but there were a lot of daily necessities, such as batteries, basins, towels, etc. Most of them were lying on the shelves in a messy manner and untouched. Some shelves still maintained their pre-apocalyptic appearance, and no one cared about them except for a layer of dust.
Jiang Mi didn't mind these things and put them all into the space. Fortunately, the space has its own purification ability, otherwise she would be a little unhappy just looking at these supplies but not being able to take them away. Now she has completely realized the purchase for free, she is so happy.
After cleaning out the supermarket, Jiang Mi just walked out and set his eyes on the department store next to it.
The building looked to have about a dozen floors, so there must be quite a few mutants in it. She glanced at Jiang Xun, who understood and said calmly, "Go in, and clear the upper floors one by one. I can handle all the mutants now, as long as we don't gather too many together, there will be no problem."
Jiang Mi made an OK gesture and immediately went to the department store excitedly.
The building was also in a mess, with corpses lying all over the place every two steps, and most of them were mutants.
The apocalypse caused by nuclear pollution is not like the zombie apocalypse in novels and movies. In that kind of sudden outbreak, no one has time to collect many supplies. Although nuclear pollution is also acute, there is a buffer period after all. Many people rush to the streets to buy things when they see that the situation is not right. If they can't buy, they will grab them. If they can't grab them, they will rob them.
There was a tsunami along the coast. Although there was no tsunami in City P, the heavy rain brought floods. The entire city was flooded. In the face of disasters everywhere in the country, the law was completely useless. In order to survive, those people began to try every means to go out and search for supplies. Once they went out, there was a high probability that they would not be able to come back.
Jiang Xun led the way, and Jiang Mi followed behind, collecting whatever he saw. In ten minutes, there was not even a counter left on the first floor. Except for the charred corpses on the ground, the huge floor looked like it had just been renovated.
Most of the first floor was occupied by gold and jewelry counters, as well as some cosmetics and so on. Some people did take gold, but not much. As the third most valuable currency after the apocalypse, Jiang Mi naturally did not miss any of it. He even searched the ground with a flashlight to see if there was anything that had been missed.
The second floor still had some clothing stores, mostly women's clothing, and some boutiques. Jiang Mi didn't hesitate to put everything into the space, regardless of whether he could wear them or not. He cleared another floor, and Jiang Mi smacked his lips, thinking it would be nice if he could drink milk tea while shopping.
But unfortunately, she has not yet advanced to become a mutant, and her body is not immune to radiation pollution.
In my previous life, I didn't get super powers and I was struggling to survive under pollution. My body functions were seriously deteriorating. How could I go back to my old ways if I had a chance to start over? Now, no matter how greedy I am, I have to force myself to hold it back.
Just shopping without having a drink would be a bit unsatisfactory.
The entire third floor is occupied by restaurants and snack bars. This floor looks obviously much messier than the two floors below. All the glass shop doors have been smashed to pieces, not a single one is intact. You can see the situation inside the store at a glance, it is so messy, like a demolition site.
Jiang Mi was not in the mood to search this floor, so he just followed Jiang Xun and looked left and right, collecting whatever he saw useful items. It took less than ten minutes to finish searching one floor and collect things from the first floor. The most collected items were various pots, pans, and utensils. As for the reserve supplies in the kitchen, they had all been taken away clean long ago.
A lot of gas tanks were also taken. After all, these things are heavy and difficult to carry, and most people would not think of using them when looking for supplies.
After touring the third floor, Jiang Xun's brows showed a layer of fatigue, "Let's stop here this morning."
Jiang Mi looked down at the time. It was almost noon. It took them nearly four hours to go through a supermarket and a three-story department store.
"Okay, let's go, let's go back quickly, I'm starving."
Jiang Mi waved his hand and hurried back quickly.
The two were reluctant to leave Jin Lei and his group's base, so they returned after more than half an hour, and happened to run into Jin Lei and his group at the gate.
There were some black, red and green stains on their clothes, and they smelled bad. Jiang Mi subconsciously stepped back.
"Mr. Jiang, you guys are going out too?" Jin Lei asked casually.
Jiang Xun nodded and responded lightly.
Jiang Mi glanced at the backpacks on the shoulders of several people. There were only two bulging bags. He smiled and chatted, "Looks like we had a pretty good harvest this morning?"
Jin Lei was silent for a moment, and then he said in a hoarse voice: "More than half of the supplies in the entire P city have been divided up a long time ago, and now there is almost nothing to find."
Jiang Mi remained silent. What did this have to do with her?
Seeing that the two of them didn't say anything, Jin Lei also consciously stopped talking, and the two teams walked towards the top floor in silence.
Return to the room.
After purifying the radiation from his body, Jiang Mi took off the filter on his face and twisted his neck. "Jin Lei suddenly told us this, so he must have something else to say."
"If he doesn't mention it, let's not ask." Jiang Xun took two sips of mineral water to moisten his throat.
Jiang Mi rolled his eyes, wondering about Jin Lei's intention, when he heard the sound of hurried running outside the door, followed by a knock on the door.
"Mr. Jiang, Ms. Jiang, Xiao Si is awake!"
