Chapter 368 Corpse Pile



The dilapidated scenes on both sides of the street tell the story of yesterday's chaos.

Occasionally, a gust of wind would blow by, stirring up the discarded trash on the ground and making a rustling sound.

Xiao Jin's eyes were sharp, and she was constantly alert to her surroundings.

However, when she escaped yesterday, Xiao Jin had already memorized all the supply points along the way, knowing which places needed to be searched and which ones to skip.

The shops on both sides of the street were the first to be affected.

Regardless of what it is, Xiao Jin's main principle is to never leave empty-handed. She hadn't collected many resources in the previous worlds, and now she was just throwing them away for nothing.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xiao Jin planned to collect more.

Including food, tools, building materials, and gasoline, Xiao Jin collected as much as he could until the space was full.

Especially gasoline.

Although Xiao Jin had received an oil tanker during the extreme cold, he left half of the gasoline inside to Jian Yiqiu as agreed.

Also, in the previous game world, Xiao Jin left, but secretly planted a huge 'landmine' for the amusement park.

She placed gasoline barrels and bombs around the park, and left paper puppets to set on fire, blowing the park upside down.

So after all that fuss, there wasn't much gasoline left in her storage space, not to mention she now had another gas guzzler in there—an off-road ambulance.

Xiao Jin remembered seeing a gas station by the roadside when she left yesterday, where there should be plenty of gasoline.

As he walked, Xiao Jin would go into any supermarkets or convenience stores he encountered, and deal with any zombies he came across, taking away half of the supplies inside.

She doesn't limit herself to food or household items; she even takes toothbrushes, towels, and soap.

Of course, some shops had their doors tightly closed, and it was obvious that there were people inside. Xiao Jin would turn around and leave in those cases.

We finally arrived at the gas station, which was completely silent from a distance.

The door of the 24-hour convenience store stood open, all alone, like a black hole.

On the glass door, several irregular cracks crisscrossed, and the faint traces of blood shimmered ominously in the dim light.

Xiao Jin's steps unconsciously slowed down. Just as she approached the convenience store entrance, a low and eerie "hoho~" sound suddenly rang out.

Xiao Jin quickly looked around; the sound seemed to be coming from under an overturned car.

She approached cautiously, holding her breath.

Looking down, through the gaps in the car body, Xiao Jin was shocked to discover that on the other side of the car, a pair of legs covered in mud and blood were slowly moving.

The owner of those legs had his upper body almost completely obscured by the car body, with only a part of his clothes visible, and bloodstains on the tattered trousers.

Xiao Jin slowly moved backward along the car body, trying to make her movements as silent as possible.

She circled around to the other side, and just as the zombie seemed about to fully reveal itself, Xiao Jin seized the opportunity and pounced out like a cheetah hunting its prey.

With a single slash, the zombie didn't even have time to react before Xiao Jin severed its head.

Having dealt with the obstacle, Xiao Jin quickly removed the oil nozzle and then rummaged through his spatial storage to retrieve several large oil drums.

These oil drums were basically the ones Xiao Jin used to store gasoline before. They weren't thrown away, so they're being put to good use now.

Xiao Jin inserted the fuel nozzle and started filling it with gasoline. While she was doing this, she planned to go and check out the convenience store in the back.

Stepping over the broken glass and scattered goods in the convenience store, Xiao Jin carefully walked around the cold corpses.

Because it was the height of summer, and only one night had passed, the air was already filled with a pungent smell of blood and the stench of decay, making people want to vomit.

Upon seeing the situation inside, Xiao Jin frowned, a sharp glint flashing in his eyes.

The once ordinary convenience store is now filled with piles of corpses in a corner.

Humans and zombies were mixed together, piled up like a pile of garbage.

The human victims had distorted faces, disheveled clothes, and their exposed skin covered with horrific bite marks. Some had been gnawed down to bones, without even the chance to become zombies.

The corpses of those zombies, on the other hand, presented a bizarre posture.

Their heads were all violently twisted off, and the blood spurting from their broken necks had long since dried, leaving shocking marks on the walls and surrounding area.

Why do you say it was twisted off?

Because the cut surfaces of these heads are unusually uneven, it is even less likely that they were the result of Xiao Jin's clean and neat slashes.

Xiao Jin squatted down and carefully examined the cuts. The fibers and flesh strands on the cut surfaces were clearly visible, showing an almost savage tearing sensation.

She had already made up her mind; the person who could have caused such a wound must undoubtedly be a player.

And there's another point that corroborates this.

All the supplies in the convenience store were taken away, completely empty, not even a sunflower seed shell was left.

At this point, the national machinery has not yet collapsed, so the only ones who can offer free purchases are gamers.

As for why the gasoline outside wasn't all pumped out, well, not everyone is like Xiao Jin, who has the cheating ability to store gasoline.

The other players would just drive around and load a few buckets, and it's normal to have some left over.

Seeing this, Xiao Jin slowly stepped back.

There's nothing of value here anymore.

While waiting for the gasoline tank to fill up, Xiao Jin simply hunted down zombies around her. She moved extremely quickly, often killing her target and turning away before the other zombies even noticed the commotion.

Xiao Jin stayed at the gas station for a full hour, but the results were quite good.

She not only filled three large barrels with gasoline, but also completed the side quest of killing level 1 zombies.

After putting away the oil drum, Xiao Jin continued on his way, and when he came across a clothing store and a shoe store, he bought a lot of clothes and shoes from them.

The same applies to pharmacies.

Although ordinary medicines are basically useless to Xiao Jin, these things are worth trading in the game world later.

………………

Before they knew it, it was noon. Xiao Jin found a safe place to have lunch.

She didn't touch the cookies Liu Xin brought her, but instead took out a few insulated containers from her personal space.

A stir-fried bamboo shoot, a large portion of spicy red oil noodles, and charcoal-grilled steak, all served with an icy cold strawberry milkshake...

After finishing her meal and cleaning up the trash, Xiao Jin thought for a moment and then headed towards Linhai Middle School.

Liu Xin and her husband are a good couple. Since she has to go back and forth to collect supplies and kill zombies anyway, it's just a convenient thing for her to take a look.

I heard gunshots over there while I was eating; the rescue team must have arrived.

It really shouldn't be mentioned.

Not long after the rescue team was mentioned, Xiao Jin encountered them.

From afar, she heard the crackling of gunfire, accompanied by the howls of zombies.

Xiao Jin climbed to the top of the neighboring building, where it was bustling with activity. It seemed that the survivors had gained confidence after seeing the rescue team arrive.

They actually ran out of their homes one by one.

Like Xiao Jin, they either peered out the windows or stood on the rooftops, secretly watching the rescue team kill zombies.
