Chapter 487 The Eternal Night of the Western Province
"If there aren't any high-level zombies inside, then we've probably come all this way for nothing."
"Um."
People say they don't trust psychics, but deep down they do. If there aren't any high-level zombies inside, then there probably aren't any supplies either.
As for encountering another zombie with psychic abilities, the probability is extremely low.
A group of people cautiously entered the mall in a defensive formation. One floor, two floors, three floors, a total of five floors, and there were no zombies.
To their surprise, almost all the supplies on the five floors were still there.
Although there weren't many food supplies on these five floors, other items like computers and clothes were still there, and there were still plenty of edible supplies in the kitchens of the restaurants.
Rice and flour, even if infested with rice weevils, can still be eaten after being picked out and dried in the sun.
Because there were many restaurants and they had a lot of storage, a considerable amount of supplies were found.
One team member remarked, "Which superpowered squad is so generous? They cleaned the mall but didn't even bother to clean the kitchen."
"Hehe, we're lucky."
The captain thought for a moment and said, "Put the supplies in the car first, then we'll go check out the underground supermarket."
"yes."
To the surprise of this group of superhumans, the shopping mall below had been almost completely emptied.
After that, they picked up a lot of bargains in this blank area.
Supermarkets and convenience stores have been emptied, but the supplies in the restaurant kitchens are still there.
"Damn! A powerful team of superhumans must have come and cleared out all the zombies here, which is why the supermarket is empty. They don't care about the supplies we found."
"Yeah, this mission was like picking up money."
As they were talking, the group spotted a pharmacy that hadn't been cleaned up, and everyone got excited!
"Such a big pharmacy, how come the superhuman team didn't know about it?"
"Could it be that the space is full?"
"Who cares? We're getting a good deal!"
The superpowered team had a great harvest.
What they didn't know was that not only them, but many other teams of superhumans in the Weiyang base and safe houses encountered this strange phenomenon when carrying out A-level or higher missions.
When they went back and summarized the events, the first image that came to mind for both Hao Ren and Ding Haisheng was that person's face.
"Yes, sir!"
"That's right! It's an adult!"
"This is the route the adults took to the Western Province!"
Hao Ren was excited when he came to this conclusion and immediately began assigning tasks along the route.
Unexpectedly, even after the adults left, they still went out of their way to pave the way for her.
She really made me cry my eyes out!
Hao Ren held back his tears and continued the meeting.
Ding Haisheng shared the same idea as her.
Kong Ming said to Ding Haisheng with emotion, "My brother is still quite useful. This empire must have been built by the adults for my brother. What do you think, Lao Ding?"
"Yes, Lao Kong."
"Old Ding!"
"Old Kong!"
...
Ling Ran had no idea that her unintentional large-scale training exercise had given Hao Ren and Ding Haisheng such a misconception.
Once we entered the western province, the weather didn't change at all; it was just cold.
Pei Yi looked at his phone calendar and said, "The New Year is almost here."
Ling Ran leaned over and took a look.
Spring Festival.
The most important holiday in this country.
"The Lunar New Year is quite early this year, it's on February 3rd."
"We should be able to reach the base by now."
"Alright, it's getting late, everyone should go to bed early. Now that we've entered the territory of the Western Province, we'll definitely be able to find the base soon."
"Um."
It's cold, and there haven't been many entertainment options lately. Everyone goes to bed early, and if they really don't want to sleep, they go out to build snowmen, have snowball fights, or go skiing.
Anyway, we have all the necessary equipment.
When I woke up the next day, it was already past eleven o'clock.
Everyone overslept.
After coming out of the living room, everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.
Pei Xiu looked completely bewildered: "Isn't it 11 a.m.?"
"Yes, we went to bed at nine o'clock last night."
"It must be. I checked the time when I got up at 3 a.m., so it must be 11 a.m. now."
The reason people have this question is that it is clearly 11 a.m., but the sky outside is still pitch black.
This is also why everyone is staying up late.
I opened my eyes, thinking it was still night, but who would have thought it was already past midnight.
Chen Le frowned: "Do you think this is only happening in Xi Province, or is it happening all over the country? I'm more inclined to think it's only happening in Xi Province, after all, we only entered Xi Province yesterday. If it's happening all over the country, that would be too much of a coincidence."
“Agreed.” Shen Nian nodded deeply.
"If only the western province is like this, then has the western province entered polar night?"
"Probably, we should ask someone."
Perhaps due to the weather, I didn't see a single person along the way from Shaanxi Province to Xi'an Province, not even a flying superhuman.
The three cars started up and turned on their high beams, illuminating the area brightly as they passed.
Pei Xiu drove along the lane: "It's been a long time since I've driven at night, and I'm really not used to it. But these high beams are really... holy crap! Is that a horde of zombies ahead?"
All they could see on the left front of the car were densely packed zombies, but surprisingly, these zombies didn't pounce on them immediately after hearing the commotion coming from Ling Ran's car.
Something's not right!
Everyone realized it instantly!
"It's being controlled by a high-level psychic zombie!"
That's almost certain.
Otherwise, given Gu Zijing's psychic abilities, she wouldn't have been so close yet still not sensed the zombies.
There must be a zombie of the same or even higher level blocking the magnetic field.
Before them was a three-way intersection resembling a crossroads. The horde of zombies came from the left front, and when they saw Ling Ran and the others, they quickly stopped walking, then turned around in unison and walked away.
The group, who were just about to get off the vehicle and fight: "..."
"What does this mean?"
"They've left, haven't they? They saw the humans run away?"
"To be precise, it was the high-level zombies who were controlling those zombies who escaped," Gu Zijing corrected.
"It must be because that zombie sensed our power," Su Yimo said smugly.
"To be precise, it's because of the adults," Gu Zijing corrected again.
"..."
Alright, alright, she knows she's a good-for-nothing, but she doesn't need to remind her every time. It's really hurtful.
Su Yimo looked at Ling Ran: "My lord, should we go after them?"
"Don't chase, keep moving forward."
"OK."
Since Ling Ran said she wouldn't chase after them, there was no need for anyone to get out of the car. The car started again and drove straight ahead, not on the same road as the zombies.
