"Tsk, I need to pick up the pace."
Li Xuanzu irritably swept away the pieces of flesh on the ground and stared ahead.
There are also many zombies there with spirit cores inside their bodies.
"What kind of monsters are being raised here?"
"Let's ask someone."
After saying that, Li Xuanzu transformed into a mass of blood and rapidly traversed the abandoned buildings.
He needs to find the nearest surviving human settlement and ask around.
In about ten minutes, Li Xuanzu arrived at a dilapidated house that looked very inconspicuous.
It blends seamlessly into the surrounding mess, but beneath it lies a hidden world.
It was an underground air-raid shelter covering nearly 10,000 square meters, but it had been carefully modified.
There was an abundance of food, water, and medicine.
They even have a complete water and electricity recycling system, as well as vegetable gardens, orchards, and livestock pens.
All kinds of furniture, entertainment facilities, and fitness equipment are readily available.
This large, well-equipped, and self-sufficient place is inhabited by only one woman.
Oh right, and a whole bunch of ferocious-looking dogs.
The woman had long, wavy blonde hair, and her muscular physique suggested she exercised regularly.
Moreover, unlike others who suffer from various forms of malnutrition due to a lack of vegetables, [it is different].
Who is it?
The other person spoke fluent American English, their voice coming from the dilapidated house on the roof.
The other party also has a monitoring system and a walkie-talkie.
"I won't compete with you for territory or steal your resources; I'm just here to ask a question."
"Tell me what's going on in the US right now, and why those zombies are different from those elsewhere."
Li Xuanzu was certain the other party could hear him, so he stopped and stood in front of the half-damaged door.
Seeing that Li Xuanzu really didn't make any moves and had no weapons on him, and didn't seem like a psychic, the woman lowered her guard considerably.
"From abroad? Didn't they know the US launched a nuclear missile?"
The woman's name was Emory.
What Li Xuanzu didn't know was that she also had a system.
Yes, it's very similar to Liang Lezhan's system.
It's not about controlling zombies, but it's still a similar nurturing system.
[Ding! The enemy's combat strength has been detected to be extremely formidable. Try not to provoke their hostility, otherwise the probability of your base being captured is 100%!]
Emory's system voice sounded in his mind.
A voice that is androgynous but leans towards masculine.
This system approached Emory before the apocalypse began.
Like Liang Lezhan, Emory was informed about the zombies in advance, but was not given the ability to control them.
Yet she was still able to avoid being attacked by zombies.
Otherwise, how could a weak woman like her defend such a large underground base?
Those dogs and the firearms in the base are fine for keeping people at bay, but once zombies discover them, this air-raid shelter will become a giant coffin.
"What?! The other person doesn't seem like a psychic either!"
Emory exclaimed in surprise, without even replying to Li Xuanzu's question immediately.
[Ding! Please do not question the system's judgment!]
The system's voice sounded again.
"Can it only transmit sound?"
Li Xuanzu took a few steps forward and found a small loudspeaker.
Emory's voice likely originated from this.
"Wait, I'm telling you now, please don't come any closer."
Seeing that Li Xuanzu had made a move, Emory quickly spoke up.
"Okay, then you go ahead."
Li Xuanzu indeed stopped in his tracks.
After all, finding another person would be quite troublesome, and this woman has ways to observe the outside world, so she must know more.
"In the early days of the apocalypse, this place was abandoned by the US government because it was too remote, so they dropped nuclear bombs here."
"Many zombies were killed, including quite a few humans."
"The blast radius of this nuclear bomb was not large, but the residual nuclear radiation was basically no longer viable for human survival."
"Huh?!"
Emory rummaged through some distant memories, talking to himself.
But she soon realized something was wrong.
Why was Li Xuanzu able to talk to her outside?!
Having ignored external information for so long, Emory's judgment had become considerably slower.
"Don't worry, I'm still human, just with special abilities. You can continue."
Li Xuanzu knew what the other party was worried about, and replied.
He said he had been feeling very uncomfortable since he arrived here, and it turned out to be due to nuclear radiation.
This thing affects a person's blood-producing function, so Li Xuanzu's abilities were somewhat limited.
Of course, it's just a small amount, so we can ignore it.
"oh oh."
"After the US government detonated the nuclear bomb here, it cleared away a large number of zombies, but not all of them."
"Many zombies survived the nuclear explosion and underwent secondary mutations."
"If ordinary zombies still possess certain human characteristics, these things are nothing more than deformed pieces of rotten flesh."
"They have strong radiation all over their bodies, and their body structure has nothing to do with humans."
"I don't know what will happen if I get bitten by this kind of zombie, but this place has been abandoned by the US government, and I'm probably the only survivor left in the vicinity."
After Emory finished speaking, he stared intently at the screen.
The figure of Li Xuanzu was clearly displayed above.
It's surveillance.
Li Xuanzu stood still, lost in thought for a long time, without making a move.
"Okay, thank you."
After leaving these words, Li Xuanzu departed.
Right in front of Emory, it melted into a pool of blood, flowing away into the distance.
This gave Emory quite a fright.
"Wow, my God, what kind of ability does this person have? How can he move freely in air contaminated by nuclear radiation without developing any abnormalities?"
"Even a Class A psychic in the United States might not be able to do this, right?"
"Class A psychic" is the term used in the United States to refer to psychics.
Rank D corresponds to a first-tier psionicist, Rank C corresponds to a second-tier psionicist, and so on up to Rank A, which is the fourth-tier psionicist.
[Ding! The other party does not seem to have any malicious intent towards the host. Congratulations on escaping unscathed.]
"Hey, what do you mean by 'escaped a disaster'? By the way, what about today's sign-in reward?"
[Ding! Congratulations on successfully checking in. You have been rewarded with a certain amount of energy. Your current strength is approximately that of an A-level psychic.]
[Ding! It has been detected that the host has checked in for more than 300 consecutive days. As a reward, a dog with the strength of an S-rank psionicist has been sent to the system space. Please check it in time.]
Wow! S-rank! I love you to death!
Li Xuanzu could not hear Emory's conversation with the system.
The dogs on the ground were all around the level three or four psychic level.
Li Xuanzu had noticed this, but since animals could absorb spirit cores, he didn't take it to heart.
Although he was very curious about how the other party had managed to do this with just one person and a group of dogs, his immediate priority was not to care about others.
(This is where we're about to introduce the Heavenly Dao.)
