"Everyone, please keep your voices down."
Gao Shou said, "We might be being targeted by a mutant cat. Be careful tonight."
Upon hearing this, the people in the camp all showed expressions of worry, because they had encountered mutated cats before.
At that time, their camp was not here, but in a residential building. They went to great lengths to clear out the infected people in that building and settle down comfortably.
However, their good fortune didn't last long, because the windows were difficult to close completely, and mutant cats often broke in to steal things.
One day, a mutant cat broke in and was discovered. The mutant cat killed the person and ran away. After that, they were frequently harassed by the mutant cat, so they had no choice but to move to this underground parking lot.
Don't be fooled by the fact that even though mutated cats aren't very big, they are incredibly agile and have extremely sharp claws, making them even more troublesome than infected individuals.
At this moment, a small light bulb connected to a car battery was turned on in the underground parking lot. That kind of light bulb is very energy-efficient, and the car battery can last a long time.
"Everyone, check to see if there are any holes where rats have crawled out. Also, check the toilets. Remember to cover the steel plate properly."
After Gao Shou finished speaking, he said to the women, "Women, light the fire, boil water, and cook instant noodles. The four of us will cook separately, one packet each. The person on night watch will get two packets, and the rest of us will get two packets each."
bathroom?
Yang Shen was surprised. Did this underground parking lot even have a toilet?
He learned from his inquiry that these people, in order to avoid risking going out at night to dispose of waste and to prevent their living quarters from becoming dirty, had actually chiseled a hole in a corner of an underground parking lot to connect to the sewer.
That hole is the toilet.
The toilet was separated into a small cubicle. Normally, this hole is covered with a steel plate that is one meter long and wide and one centimeter thick. It is not something that an ordinary person can lift; it takes two people to move it.
This also prevents mutated animals from crawling into the sewers.
And on the wall next to that hole, there was even a steel pipe faucet.
At this moment, Gao Xue's wife came in to get water. Seeing Yang Shen's surprised expression, she explained, "This is not tap water, but rainwater from the roof of the bungalow. This used to be Brother Gao Shou's private parking lot."
Yang Shen suddenly realized, but he hadn't expected that Gao Shou was a wealthy man before the apocalypse!
After Gao Xue's wife went out to fetch water, Yang Shen quickly moved the steel plate aside to relieve himself. While doing so, he used his special ability to slowly peel off a neat, finger-thick steel strip from the steel plate.
After urinating, he put the heavy steel plate back down, took the steel bar, and left the cubicle.
He found a secluded corner, out of sight of others, and used his supernatural abilities to separate the steel bar bit by bit, then made the separated parts into steel needles.
Needles made from this type of steel are of better quality than those made from stainless steel spoons and steel bars.
But when Yang Shen looked at the upgrade data, he still only needed a little experience to level up to level one.
Yang Shen guessed that while the initial materials might affect the initial upgrade experience, there wouldn't be much difference unless the material levels were significantly different.
Soon, the water boiled. Yang Shen, the Gao brothers, and Chen Tao hurriedly found a bowl, tore open a packet of instant noodles, added the seasoning, and poured in the boiling water.
Suddenly, a long-lost fragrance wafted into my nostrils.
Yang took a deep breath, and before the noodles had even fully cooked, he devoured them. They were incredibly delicious.
After finishing the noodles, he also drank all the soup, and then looked completely satisfied.
"It feels so good to be full!" Yang Shen thought contentedly. He hadn't felt this fullness in a long time.
"Big brother, have you finished eating? I'll help you wash the dishes." At this moment, a girl who looked about fourteen or fifteen years old walked over and said to Yang Shen.
"Ah, thank you very much." Yang Shen hurriedly handed the bowl to the girl, who was almost skin and bones, perhaps due to long-term malnutrition.
"It's what we should do." The girl took the bowl, said this, and quickly headed towards the restroom.
Yang Shen noticed that the girl was licking the bowl as she walked, which made him stare blankly.
Only then did he notice that the other boys and girls seemed to have originally intended to help him wash the dishes, but the girl beat him to it, leaving them all disappointed.
"well……"
Yang Shen sighed. This is the end of the world.
"I wonder how my sister is doing?"
A deep worry flashed in his eyes, which then turned into determination: "I must get to Haishi as soon as possible. It was fine before I didn't have superpowers, but now that I do, I must find my sister!"
Haishi is not far from Heyang County, as Heyang County is also a coastal area, only about 500 kilometers away.
Before the apocalypse, it would only take a day to reach Haishi, but after the apocalypse, Yang Shen had no idea what was happening outside the city.
However, he could imagine that it must be very dangerous outside.
Even stray cats and pet cats in the city have mutated, so wild animals in the wild must have changed as well.
Yang Shen didn't think much of it and continued making steel needles. Under his control, the steel bar gradually disintegrated, shedding fine steel particles.
He then reassembled those steel pellets into toothpick-sized, three-centimeter-long steel needles.
Soon, the entire steel bar was turned into steel needles, totaling fifty needles.
Including the original ones, there are now a total of sixty steel needles.
LV2:
This is the current upgrade data for the steel needle pistol. It still needs more than 100 experience points before the next upgrade.
Yang Shen then coughed lightly, attracting the attention of many people. He then took out his steel needle pistol, removed the magazine, took out the steel needles inside, and put the outer steel needles back in.
Many people's eyes flashed with desire when they saw the steel needle pistol, but many more doubted whether such a pistol, which uses steel needles as bullets, could really kill infected people.
