Chapter 636 No Need to Underestimate Yourself
After leaving the base, the vehicle drove smoothly on the road.
Inside the first car, Ling Ran was still sitting in the passenger seat as always, Gu Zijing was driving, and the three people in the back were Pei Xiu, Qiu Se, and a superhuman from the Lost City named Yangyang.
Sheep has a neat short haircut and ordinary features, but her eyes are very bright and she has two dimples when she smiles, which makes her very likable.
She looked out the window and was shocked to see the snow automatically retreating to both sides.
When she first got in the car, she was thinking that she would only be able to drive around the base, and once they got out, she would have to walk. She never expected this...
So this is how big shots travel?
I love it!
Just as I was wondering what was going on, I heard the Dragon King's pleasant voice from the passenger seat: "Little Sheep, how's the looting going at your base in Q City?"
lamb?
Is he calling her?
The Dragon King calls her Little Lamb?
Ahhhh, she's going to die!
This was the first time she had realized how beautiful her name sounded.
Sitting in the middle, Qiu Se nudged Yang Yang, who was lost in thought, and reminded him, "Yang Yang, the adults are calling you."
"arrive!"
The shout of "Here!" was very loud.
After Hongliang finished speaking, Yangyang felt embarrassed.
She then realized what had just happened and quickly tried to cover her embarrassment with a cough, but the fake cough turned into a real one.
Qiu Se, who witnessed her foolish behavior the whole time: "..."
Although she also admires adults, it's not as abstract as Yangyang. Adults just call you by your name!
After coughing, Yangyang answered Ling Ran's question with a flushed face: "Although Feng District is a suburb, it has a permanent population of more than 600,000. So we dare not go to bustling streets, large shopping malls and other places. But all the rural areas in Feng District have been cleared out, as well as some residential areas."
"So, you mean your base hasn't cleared out the supplies in the bustling areas yet?"
"Hmm." Yangyang nodded: "We usually take detours to search for supplies in rural areas of various districts, especially now that the zombies are of a higher level. They are basically in groups. We occasionally send people to scout some places. If there are no zombies in a place, we will go and loot supplies, but it is too dangerous, so we rarely do it."
Qiu Se concluded: "In other words, there are still supplies in the central areas of each district."
"Yes, if no one has looted everything right after the apocalypse started."
Qiu Se could understand what Yangyang meant.
At the beginning of the apocalypse, a relatively large number of people survived. Later, many were trapped in their homes, ran out of food, and were forced to go out, where they were either bitten by zombies or killed by humans.
If someone happens to be trapped in a supermarket or a nearby supermarket, not all of these supplies will be used up, but the amount that remains will certainly be greatly reduced.
In addition, at the beginning, zombies were not yet in such large groups, and they were easily attracted by sound. If there had been a smart and strong team at that time, they should have been able to find a lot of supplies.
Unlike now, where supplies might be scarce, the danger would certainly be at its highest.
Even so, if there's no other way, in order to survive, one must still search. Just like the predicament of being trapped at home with no food.
Upon hearing this, Ling Ran said, "It's alright, then let's take a walk."
Upon hearing this, Yangyang immediately clutched his heart with both hands: "As expected of the Dragon King, his words are so domineering."
Ling Ran: "..."
I can't stand it.
Ling Ran wasn't lying when she said to take a walk more.
Although we didn't see many zombies along the way, we could see dozens or even hundreds of them once we reached a busy street.
These zombies do not attack humans, but instead divide their tasks.
Half of the zombies followed Ling Ran's car, while the rest sneaked away. Without a doubt, they went to inform on him.
Gu Zijing watched this scene with astonishment: "This zombie king has actually learned to use zombies for surveillance."
It's really a bit scary.
Imagine a small team seeing only a hundred or so zombies here, thinking they can handle it, only to find themselves surrounded by zombies after they've killed them all.
Who would have thought of that?
While driving, Gu Zijing suddenly looked out the car window at the tall building ahead: "Sir, look at the top floor at ten o'clock."
Everyone opened the windows and looked out. Sure enough, there was a tall building at ten o'clock in the distance. It was probably a commercial building in this area, nearly twenty stories high. On the edge of the rooftop, there was a man. He was wearing black pants and a khaki trench coat that reached his knees. The wind made the corners of his coat flutter.
At that moment, that person—no, that zombie—was staring at their car.
"Holy crap! This is a zombie!" Pei Xiu exclaimed, noticing the zombie's signature white eyes. "It actually knows how to show off?"
Upon hearing this, everyone silently agreed in their hearts.
This zombie does look pretty pretentious.
"Stop the car, we're surrounded," Ling Ran suddenly said.
Gu Zijing immediately stopped the car and found that they were now at an intersection, with swarms of zombies running towards them from all sides.
The zombie on the rooftop to the left, looking all smug, remained motionless, seemingly in complete control of what was about to happen.
Gu Zijing closed her eyes slightly and used her mental abilities to probe the area. The probe was quickly bounced back, and her face paled slightly: "Level 8 Zombie King."
Sure enough, those who can become zombie kings in this bustling area are all of high rank.
No wonder the zombie horde in the Lost City only numbered a few hundred thousand the day before yesterday. It turns out that there was more than one level eight zombie in this area, or rather, there was no level nine zombie.
Otherwise, the zombie army in a region should all be under the control of a single zombie king.
Gu Zijing looked at Ling Ran: "My lord, we're counting on you. We probably can't be of much help."
Aside from dealing with a tiny fraction of the zombies, Ling Ran had to handle the rest.
Suddenly, he felt a sense of loss and guilt.
They relied on the adults and won all the way, even raising their superpower levels with ease, but they didn't seem to have anything to help the adults.
"Don't underestimate yourself. It's normal that you can't help me go where I want to go."
Ling Ran thought about how to comfort her navigation system: "But you guys are actually still very useful to me."
Realizing that the adult was comforting her, Gu Zijing's earlier distress instantly subsided.
She was able to realize her disappointment so quickly.
Adults actually care about them a lot too.
Otherwise, they are nothing at all, at most they are friends of her half-brother, not even as good as Uncle Chen, Aunt Liu, Hu Meiying and the others, but she has always been willing to take them with her.
Although she usually pretends to be indifferent, it has always been a facade; her heart is always very soft.
At this moment, Qiu Se and Yang Yang in the back seat perfectly illustrate this point.
