Chapter 9: Wall-breaking
At this moment, Mu Jiu could clearly feel the changes in space with his consciousness.
Outside the wall of 33 wordless monuments in the space, the white mist dissipated, revealing a large area of black land.
The fluffy black color surrounded the tombstone and stretched as far as the eye could see.
Beep—a familiar voice sounded:
[Space upgrade, adding 2,000 acres of fertile black soil. ]
[Black soil requires the owner to collect crop seeds or plants from the outside world, and can be planted indefinitely. ]
[There is no need for the owner to fertilize, water, or pollinate the crops; the space will grow them automatically!]
"Sister, these two treasures...are returned to you! Thank you!"
Ivan's voice rang out, bringing Mu Jiu back to reality.
She wiped the Five Emperors' Coins that she had just held in her mouth with her clothes, and handed them to Mu Jiu together with the peach wood sword.
Mu Jiu waved his hand and said, "These two items are given to you.
From now on you are mine, and this is just a small reward for following me.
My name is Mu Jiu, just call me by my name from now on."
Hearing that it was a gift for her, Aiwen's face lit up with joy, "Thank you, Mu Jiu! Thank you!"
"Don't thank me too quickly, I want to tell you something.
Now that weirdness is in vogue, the most important thing is to become immune to scary things as soon as possible. Objects that ward off evil spirits are only auxiliary.
If you keep being afraid of those things, you will lose your life sooner or later, and then I won't be able to protect you."
After hearing these words, Alvin shuddered and nodded pitifully.
"But I have a question..." Alvin said timidly.
"you say."
"You killed Gui to get the beads, but what are these beads for?"
"To survive."
"ah?"
"You'll understand later. In a nutshell, the more beads we have, the greater our chances of survival."
“Oh…I understand!”
After explaining everything, the two of them went downstairs together.
When I walked out of the hospital physical examination building, I saw corpses lying everywhere on the road and in the green forest.
There were dried corpses that had been completely devoured, just like the ones in the cafeteria.
Some people would pick up sharp branches or keys from the roadside and stab people in the neck.
There were also people who scratched their entire faces with their own nails, and finally dug out their eyeballs with their own hands...
The causes of death varied, but it was obvious that they had all suffered extreme intimidation before their deaths!
Almost every corpse died with its eyes open.
Mu Jiu walked in front, holding the peach wood sword tightly in his hand, killing all the ghosts he saw along the way, and walked towards the outpatient building.
The first floor of the outpatient department has the city’s largest outpatient Chinese medicine pharmacy, and Mu Jiu will definitely not miss it.
She is a doctor, and also someone who has experienced the end of the world.
She knew that medicine was absolutely important at all times, besides food and water.
Now is the early days of the end of the world, and supplies are abundant. As long as you take steps and are brave enough, supplies will be readily available.
If we wait until all the large and small bases start to gather manpower, it will be difficult to collect supplies.
Even if she doesn't want these important supplies, someone will come to take them away. Even if she doesn't want them, she won't let anyone get them for free.
The closer you get to the outpatient building, the more bodies you see lying on the ground.
There are many freshly baked and strange things floating around.
These were people who wanted to rush into the hospital to grab medical resources because of physical abnormalities when the horrific apocalypse was about to begin.
I thought it would be first come first served, but unfortunately, the doctors couldn't cure their illnesses, so they could only hope for the best.
"So many...ambulances collided in a chain reaction!" Ivan's surprised voice came from behind.
Mu Jiu looked in the direction that Alvin mentioned, which was the hospital entrance.
There were about seven or eight ambulances heading in different directions, which collided with other vehicles into a large ball, with flames everywhere.
Surrounding this major car accident were a large number of strange creatures with missing limbs, floating in the air and watching the excitement.
They were probably still confused and didn't know they were already dead...
At this moment, in the huge hospital, there was no sound of screams from any living people, it was eerily quiet.
"That's a trick wall." Mu Jiu explained softly, "They're all dead. There's nothing to see. Let's go."
The most common thing you can do when driving in a horror apocalypse is to hit a wall.
Driving a vehicle on the road without talisman paper is not much different from lying in a coffin, allowing yourself to be toyed with by the evil.
People in the car will have hallucinations and will be unable to get out of the circular route. They will not be able to see the real world outside the car windows.
That's why you might bump into other vehicles blindly if you step on the accelerator or brake too hard.
Mu Jiu didn't stay outside for too long and walked straight towards the outpatient hall.
Although he had prepared himself mentally, even Mu Jiu swallowed hard when he saw the crowded, no, eerie scene inside.
This is too much and too dense!
As if they smelled the scent of a living person, all the weird creatures in the hall, who had their backs to the door, suddenly turned around!
With a dark, eyeless face, he looked at Mu Jiu and Ai Wen, then suddenly stretched out his arms, intending to float towards them...
ah--
Before Alvin could scream, Mu Jiu covered his mouth tightly.
This kind of grand scene, faced with hundreds or even thousands of strange creatures turning back to pounce on their food, is indeed not something that an ordinary person's heart can withstand.
It’s pretty good that I didn’t faint on the spot!
After all, fear is human instinct.
Just like your fingers will automatically retract when they touch boiling water, it is a conditioned reflex and the body's alarm mechanism.
If he wants to make people numb to fear, it will take a long time for Ivan, a newcomer.
Shh-!
Mu Jiu whispered, "Don't be afraid, they can't get out!"
Sure enough, the monsters that were about to pounce on us, when they reached the door of the outpatient hall, were blocked inside as if by an invisible force.
No matter how hard they jumped, they couldn't break through the door.
On the contrary, due to the crowding, the outermost layer was weird and completely flattened, like the office workers squeezed on the glass door of the subway.
Ivan took a few deep breaths before he calmed down. "They can't get out?"
"These are probably sick ghosts. They died of illness in the hospital. After death, they are trapped here and can never get out."
"So wherever you die, you'll linger there forever?" asked Alvin.
"This is what a primary weirdness is like. Because you don't have enough power, you can't go anywhere else."
"Huh? Primary weirdness, so there will be advanced weirdness?" Alvin seemed to have grasped some important point.
"Yes." Mu Jiu gave an affirmative answer, "Beginner, intermediate, and advanced."
Ivan...
"Okay, wait here, I'll go in."
Mu Jiu did not waste any more time. He reached out and touched the jade ring on his neck, then walked in with the peach wood sword in hand.
She tried to rush directly to the pharmacy relying on the red light of the jade ring... but she was stopped!
Because the hall was so crowded with monsters, even with the jade ring, there was no way to go in without killing a monster!
"Mu Jiu, I, I'll go in with you!" Alvin trotted to catch up with Mu Jiu.
Although Alvin's body was very resistant to entering this strange hall.
But reason told her that in this apocalypse where even a machine gun couldn't hit a single living person, the only way to survive was to follow Mu Jiu!
Mu Jiu had no time to care about others at the moment.
Because just now, after she swung her peach wood sword at the strangeness in the hall for the first time, she clearly noticed something different!
