Chapter 20: Zombification?!
"Don't cry... It's not certain that anything will happen. What if I get lucky and become a mutant? Then, I'll kill as many zombies as possible, and we'll split the crystal cores equally."
This sentence cannot comfort Lin Luyan. She has survived two lives. How could she not know the consequences of being injured by zombies?
No one can survive in this situation, let alone develop superpowers and become a superpowered person.
"Qin Simu, I will do everything I can to save your life." Lin Luyan sobbed and crawled to the most obvious bloodstain on the ground. With the help of the tiny light, she carefully read her exclusive business panel.
Although she had already thoroughly studied every section inside, she didn't want to give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope.
The module types in the management panel include operations and restaurant security.
The only products in the [mall] are still ingredients.
Ingredients…
Ingredients…
Ingredients!
Lin Luyan remembered what Yu Min had told her before about the feedback after eating the restaurant food. The results of her several tastings were exactly the same as what Yu Min had said. She felt more energetic and her ears and eyes were clearer.
No matter what, the ingredients sold in the [Mall] should be Lin Luyan’s last hope.
With her many years of experience as a chef, Lin Luyan quickly thought of some ingredients that could be eaten raw.
Lettuce, cucumber, carrot, tomato...
At this moment, Qin Simu did not have the strength to chew food, so Lin Luyan could only buy the most expensive tomatoes, squeeze out the juice, and drip it for him to drink.
The man was in so much pain that he lost all five senses. The meridians in his body were screaming wildly and black energy was constantly wandering around.
The nails gradually become longer and sharper, and the teeth in the mouth also come out, with a tendency to become unstoppable.
Just when he was about to surrender, a cool and sour liquid dripped into his mouth, melting into every bone and blood and combining with it.
All changes leading to death are miraculously reversed.
The previous battle with the two-meter-tall zombie had basically exhausted all of Lin Luyan's strength.
Now she used her willpower to crush the tomato and squeezed it for Qin Simu to drink.
There are 6 tomatoes worth 5 points, each one is the size of two fists.
In a short while, half of it was used up.
With the help of food from the mall, Qin Simu's skin gradually returned to normal, but he suddenly lost consciousness and passed out.
His face was a little red. Lin Luyan reached out and touched it, and it was so hot that it was scary.
The two came here today for the weapons that might be hidden in this factory. In her previous life, Lin Luyan had overheard that a team of superpowers got a batch of weapons in the factory by chance, and they were selling them specifically to ordinary people, but the condition for the sale was that they had to exchange them for handsome young men.
At first glance, it is not a serious transaction.
When ordinary people need weapons for self-defense, they try to persuade good-looking girls and handsome guys among their friends and relatives to volunteer. If they cannot persuade them or have no resources, some of them will go to extremes and engage in human trafficking.
This chain reaction will sooner or later endanger the entire group of survivors. Half of the chaos in the previous apocalypse was caused by humans themselves.
Lin Luyan has always kept this matter in mind. At the beginning, when Qin Simu was the only one around her, she didn't think that the two of them would come here alone to get the arms. After all, they didn't have any special abilities, and they didn't know the specific situation here, so the safety factor was unknown.
The appearance of Xu Xiaojing and two elderly people with special abilities made Lin Luyan pick up the plan hidden deep in her heart.
She wants to take the weapons here to avoid disaster in the future.
The five-member team worked together for a few days, and then Lin Luyan blurted out the arms plan, using the excuse of instructions from the Wahada restaurant.
This factory, including the basement, has five floors in total. The basement has a very strange layout, more like a prison than a parking lot.
The steel fences are tightly connected to each other.
The fence was full of zombies, all wearing work uniforms or management uniforms with "Jin Wan" written on them.
It can be seen that the manager of this factory is neither superstitious nor inhumane.
Even though they had precious gold to escape for fifteen minutes before the apocalypse, they refused to let the factory employees leave. When zombies appeared in the factory and turned the employees into zombies, they locked them all up and locked the door.
But if you think about it carefully, with so many employees, couldn't they all just leave if they rebelled and fled? Why would they just accept their fate and stay here, being so "obedient" and locked up together?
Is it because they're worried about the number of arms being less than the number of employees, or is it something else...
Lin Luyan and the other four were quite vigilant. They did not rush to clear out the zombie army on the underground floor. Instead, they walked through the entire factory together and made sure that there was no problem before deciding to increase efficiency and split into two groups.
One team takes the munitions, and the other team collects the crystal cores in the zombies' skulls.
But no one expected that there would be a zombie like a scout, lying in ambush in the pile of metal parts, accompanied by munitions, to deliver a fatal blow in the dark.
If Qin Simu had not reacted quickly and blocked the fatal blow for Lin Luyan, her life would probably have been lost today.
Qin Simu tried his best, but he could only force the zombie back.
It was not advisable to stay here for long. If the zombie realized that it had seriously injured Qin Simu, it would probably come back for revenge. By then, it would be difficult for the two of them to survive.
But all they could do was wait. When the agreed time came, the three people downstairs would realize something was wrong and come find them.
Fortunately, Xu Xiaojing was smart. She glanced at the watch given by Lin Luyan from time to time. When she found that the time displayed was about to exceed half an hour after the two parties separated, she promptly called out to Zhang Juan and Wang Daquan to stop their supernatural long-range attacks and went up to find them.
Four people couldn't even gather a strong middle-aged man. Although Qin Simu was not fat, he was thin and tall, and his muscles were extremely tight and strong. It was a bit difficult for two people to lift him.
Everyone worked together to place the man on the bed in the RV. Xu Xiaojing then asked the question that had been pent up in her heart for a long time: "Sister Yan, was Brother Qin injured by the zombies?"
Lin Luyan nodded, her voice hoarse, obviously from crying. "Don't be afraid, he'll be fine. By the way, the three of you go back and bring back a few boxes of ammunition on a cart. That zombie won't be here for a while, but you all have to be extremely vigilant and be careful."
This decision was a bit risky, but she felt that now was the best time to get the munitions. The zombie injured Qin Simu, but Qin Simu also seriously injured it.
Xu Xiaojing, Zhang Juan and Wang Daquan pushed the cart and went back to move the arms as instructed by Lin Luyan, without any complaints.
If other people with special abilities saw this scene, they would be shocked.
What a joke! Even if a person with special abilities needs the care of a restaurant or a base, he will definitely use his special abilities to negotiate with the operators and reach terms that satisfy both parties.
