Yang Shen frowned, quickly turned around and entered the underground parking lot, closing the large iron gate behind him.
Although he is no longer afraid of infected people, there are still many ordinary people behind him.
Most importantly, the previous battle must have awakened many infected people. If an infection wave were to form, even he would be in danger now.
“…Superhuman…” Wang Yanbin said, trembling with fear.
"Dispose of the body properly."
Yang Shen then noticed the strong smell of blood in the underground parking lot. He frowned slightly and said, "Throw out the bodies of Gao Xue and the others after dawn, or bury them somewhere. As for the mutated cat's body, you can roast it and eat it if you're not afraid."
After saying this, Yang Shen had already replenished the 'bullets' of the steel needle pistol, then picked up the corpse of a mutated cat, roughly tore off its fur, and gathered firewood to prepare for a barbecue.
He hadn't eaten meat in ages, and tonight he was going to indulge in a meat feast!
Upon hearing this, everyone around them had their eyes light up.
"Can we...eat this too?" Wang Yanbin asked in surprise.
Besides the three students from Gao Xue, two more people died in the previous mutated cat attack, but no one is saddened by their deaths. This is the cruel reality of the apocalypse.
Yang Shen snorted coldly: "Don't say that I, as the boss, don't take care of you. From now on, listen to my orders carefully. As long as I have food, you won't go hungry."
"Yes, yes, we will definitely obey the orders of the superhuman!"
"Yes, yes, we will definitely obey."
"Anyone who dares to disobey me will have to ask if I'll allow it!"
Immediately, everyone spoke up, swallowing hard, their faces filled with surprise.
Although few people ate cat meat before the mutation, now that it's the apocalypse, it's good enough to have something to eat, and no one will complain.
"First, plug the hole in the wall," Yang Shen said.
“Okay, right away!” Wang Yanbin replied immediately.
Even the injured Gao Shou struggled to get up and helped with the simple repairs to the hole in the wall. They were quite experienced, so they used plastic to wrap up the mud and sand that came from who-knows-where and sealed the hole tightly.
Meanwhile, the screams of infected people could be heard outside, clearly indicating that even though the door was closed, infected people were still being attracted there.
Gao Shou, Wang Yanbin, and the others immediately fell silent, not daring to breathe.
Yang Shen had already started a fire, washed the cat meat with water in the small cubicle, and then began to grill the meat.
Because of his exceptional hearing, he could tell that there were only three or five infected people outside, and their footsteps were not hurried, so they were probably just wandering over.
With his current strength, he doesn't need to worry about these infected people at all.
However, Yang Shen did not make any noise, so the infected people outside gradually wandered to a distance.
Soon, the aroma of roasted meat filled the entire underground parking lot, and everyone, including Yang Shen, swallowed hard, as they hadn't eaten meat in a long time.
Yang Shen found some salt stored in the camp, rubbed some on his hands, and then began to eat it heartily.
Surprisingly, the cat meat wasn't sour as rumored online before the apocalypse; on the contrary, it tasted delicious, perhaps because it had mutated, he guessed.
After a frenzied munching session, Yang Shen finally stopped, satisfied, after devouring the entire roasted mutated cat meat.
This time, I was truly full, and it was so much more satisfying than eating instant noodles before.
Meanwhile, the others started their own fires and began grilling the prepared cat meat over the flames.
In today's environment, nobody cares about the smoky smell; as long as it's edible, that's all that matters.
Yang Shen searched the underground parking lot and found that there were quite a few bottles of mineral water, which Gao Shou and the others must have found and stored.
In today's environment, not only have wild cats mutated, but even microorganisms have mutated. Someone in this camp once drank water indiscriminately and died tragically after being parasitized by microorganisms.
Mineral water is just as precious as food.
The people here only dare to drink the rainwater collected from the roof of their bungalows when cooking; otherwise, they drink mineral water whenever possible.
Yang Shen didn't stand on ceremony, grabbed a bottle, unscrewed the cap, and drank it down in a rage.
Yang Shen finished a bottle of mineral water in one gulp, threw the bottle away, and continued to browse the underground parking lot.
Unfortunately, there's nothing precious left.
Yang Shen pondered that although this place seemed safe, it was not suitable for living, especially with so many people crammed together.
Moreover, the recent incident of the mutant cat digging a hole and invading had made Yang Shen secretly wary.
Looking back now, I realize that I only awakened my superpowers three years after the apocalypse. This was probably because the virus had a certain impact on the environment of the entire planet, subtly altering the genes of the organisms on Earth.
Perhaps other animals are also beginning to mutate gradually, and the number of mutations will only increase.
Tonight we only encountered a mutated cat; who knows, we might encounter mutated rats, mutated birds, and so on in the future.
"Tomorrow...clean up the infected people outside!"
Yang Shen secretly made up his mind that he definitely couldn't stay here forever. If he wanted to lead these people out, he would have to clear out the infected people outside to prevent further casualties.
These people are his sources of experience.
Because everyone can gain experience multiple times, each person is a valuable asset in Yang Shen's eyes.
Yang Shen glanced at the data of the steel needle pistol:
LV3:
My experience points have reached over 300 again, but I'm still far from the 5,000 experience points needed to upgrade the Steel Needle Pistol.
Yang Shen glanced at the distance and saw everyone gathered around the fire, swallowing hard.
