After Nan Xiangwan and the others laughed, they also started an important meeting.
"The main point of today's meeting is that our path ahead will be even more difficult. This bloody rain has not only led to another round of natural selection among humans, but it has also made the zombies even more powerful. Of course, the crystal cores will also be upgraded. We were hoping to take a shortcut north, but now we can't go through areas with large areas of vegetation and animals."
“That’s right, what Anan said is what I wanted to say too. In addition to traveling, collecting crystal cores is also very important. We can collect supplies on the side. After all, it’s been a year since the apocalypse, and there probably won’t be many usable things left.”
Although Zhan Siyu's superpowers have recovered to level 5, there are too many variables after his rebirth, and no one can guarantee that they will not encounter any abnormal zombies along the way.
The others fell silent and pondered after hearing this. Nan Haochen, on the other hand, was quite carefree. As long as his sister was alright, he didn't care about anything else.
At this moment, Liang Xuzhe asked, "Captain, I'd like to ask if our car is big enough to get us to our destination?"
"Don't worry, that's enough. If we come across a gas station on the way, we can check it out, but they'll mostly be empty. You know, there are plenty of smart people out there."
"Indeed, but as long as we have enough supplies, we will feel at ease."
Nan Xiangwan chuckled and said, "Don't worry, you definitely won't go hungry. However, we'll still need to recruit some people with special abilities along the way. But character is very important, so you can all keep an eye out for them."
"Yes, we understand."
"Alright, it's already noon. Let's eat and then continue on our way, wherever we end up."
"OK."
After having a simple bowl of noodles for lunch, they set off again.
Looking at the puddles everywhere along the way, Nan Xiangwan said with some irritation, "So much of the blood rain outside hasn't evaporated yet, it feels a bit awful."
Zhan Siyu listened to Nan Xiangwan's worried words and thought the same thing, but still said, "I guess it will take another day of sunshine for it to evaporate."
"Hehe, it's too late. By the time the animals have drunk this water, it will be too late even if it evaporates. It seems that the weather is really about to change, and so are the plants."
"Don't worry, I'm here. I'll tell you a secret: my superpower is now at level 5."
When Nan Xiangwan heard this, her eyes nearly popped out of her head, and her mouth gaped open as she stared at him in disbelief. She thought to herself, "As expected of a big shot, she wasted a year and her mental strength was only at level 3, and her other abilities were only at level 2. It's true what they say, 'Comparison is the thief of joy, and comparison is the thief of joy.'"
Then he swallowed hard and whispered, "Looks like I can latch onto someone's coattails now, hehe!"
"Well, you can hold me as you like."
Zhan Siyu looked at her lovingly and continued to concentrate on driving. After all, it was easy to overturn the car if you were not careful on the road nowadays, so he really didn't dare to lose focus.
When they passed through the village, Zhan Si braked suddenly, but still hit something.
"Holy crap, was that a child just now?"
Nan Xiangwan, sitting in the passenger seat, saw it clearly. She was thrown over there. Damn it, she was completely horrified.
Zhan Siyu had only seen a shadow, but after hearing Nan Xiangwan's words, his face turned dark. He thought to himself that once humanity is lost, one becomes truly insane and capable of anything.
"Sister, who can be so cruel as to throw a child away?"
"Don't talk. Wait and see what happens. There might be a fierce fight. Be careful." Then he picked up the intercom and said to Liang Xuzhe, "Stay alert. There's something going on."
"receive."
At this time, several refugees ran out from the front of the car, crying out in grief: "My children, you killed my children, you must compensate my children, wuwu..."
Nan Xiangwan and Zhan Siyu looked at each other and thought of the same word at the same time: "scam"!
"Let's go, get off the bus and take a look. People these days will do anything to steal supplies."
"Okay, be careful."
Seeing that the captain had gotten out of the car, Liang Xuzhe immediately took his gun and got out of the car as well.
"Woo woo, my child, you have to compensate me. The child is dead, you have to compensate me with supplies, otherwise I will never let you go."
"Tsk tsk, what a world! You threw the child here, do you really think we're blind? If you want to rob us, just say so. Using a child as a raft, how dare you even say that?"
"Pah, you bumped into the road yourselves."
"Yes, you hit our child. You should compensate us for your supplies, or we will not be polite."
"Distribute supplies..."
Nan Xiangwan, listening to the noise of the crowd, became annoyed. She pulled out her pistol and fired two shots into the air. Bang! The people on the other side instantly fell silent.
Then he looked at the child who was hit and found that he was still breathing, so he walked over and snatched the child away.
"Hey, what are you doing? You won't even leave the dead child alone?"
"Shut up, stop making noise!" Then he called out to those behind him, "Brother Xiao Wu, come here and check on the child."
After hearing this, Wu Zhi thought that she had just taken on the job as a wet nurse and had to start work, so she immediately walked over to take the child, and asked in a somewhat confused manner, "What should I do?" This was really her first time saving someone, and she had no experience.
Nan Xiangwan held her forehead in frustration, having almost forgotten that she was a newbie. "Put your hand on her wound and transfer your energy to her. She'll be your experimental subject. Just go for it."
"Okay, I understand. I'll give it a try."
"Hey, don't think you can be unreasonable just because you have guns. You killed my child, so you should at least compensate us."
The others echoed, "Yes, accompany us with our supplies."
Zhan Siyu looked at the laborers who, instead of finding food themselves, were using the child to stage an accident. He said with a dark face, "Heh, don't be in such a hurry. Once the child wakes up, I'll ask him what happened. You'd better pray that you're not lying, or we won't hesitate to send you to meet the King of Hell."
After Wu Zhi's initial treatment, the child who was hit finally opened his eyes, but he had too many wounds on his body. Even Wu Zhi was exhausted and covered in sweat, and his face was a little pale.
"Anan, the child has woken up, but this is all the treatment I can do right now; I have no more energy."
"Well, just wake up. Go to the car and rest."
"good."
Nan Xiangwan took the child and whispered, "Don't be afraid, child. We are not bad people. Now I want to ask you, are they your parents?"
Upon hearing Nan Xiangwan's words, the little boy immediately recalled what had happened before. His eyes turned fierce as he said, "Sister, they are all bad people. My family passed through here, and my parents were killed by them. They were going to eat me, but I had a fever yesterday because of the rain, so I escaped. But when I woke up today, I had no strength at all, and they threw me out. After that, I don't know what happened."
"Okay, I understand."
