Chapter 55 Business District
Central Plaza is one of the largest business districts in Baishi.
In the past, people complained about the traffic here on weekends and holidays.
After the natural disaster and zombie outbreak, this place became one of the most terrifying places in Bai City.
Unfortunately, no matter how many level one, two, and three zombies there are, they are just a blood mist under the laws of space.
In this road-clearing operation, Mo Fei reserved the crystal cores that were to be distributed to others, and the rest were transferred into the crystal cores of the space.
She listened to the constant reminders from the space: Space upgrade progress 35%, 37%...
It has now reached 55%.
Tens of thousands of zombies contributed thousands of crystal cores, but unfortunately the highest grade of these crystal cores was only B grade, and there were only a few of them, while most of them were C/D grade.
(D-level comes from level 1 zombies/mutants, C-level comes from level 2, B-level comes from level 3, A-level comes from level 4, S-level comes from level 5 and above, and so on.)
Mo Fei calculated it according to the progress of the space, 100 D-level = 10 C-level = 1 B-level = 1% upgrade. They are far inferior to the A-level crystal core of the killer willow, which can directly increase the progress of the space upgrade by 10%.
Mo Fei also grabbed a handful of crystal cores for Shen Mianmian, at least fifty or sixty in number. Most of these were D-level crystal cores from level one zombies, and a small portion were C-level crystal cores from level two zombies.
Shen Mianmian looked at the crystal core in front of her that had been washed clean and sparkling, "Sister, you don't have to share with me. I didn't do anything and I shouldn't take any of this."
She knew that not every zombie had a crystal core.
She used to be in the same team with Huo Shu and his team. Because they were all timid and didn't dare to go to any dangerous places, they often followed other powerful teams to pick up the leaks.
It's not easy to get seven or eight D-level crystal cores every day. Occasionally, if you're lucky, you can get two C-level ones.
Because Huo Shu and Xu Huiyuan were the main attackers, the crystal cores had to be used on them. After all, only when their ability levels were improved could their entire team be more secure.
In this way, what was allocated to Chen Mianmian was almost nothing.
The only two times she got the crystal core were when someone in the team was injured and she needed to use a lot of super powers to heal. The crystal core was used to replenish her super powers that were being consumed at a very fast rate. So this is why she is still a first-level superpower user after being in the base for several months.
But she hadn't done anything for Mo Fei yet, and Mo Fei had given her so many crystal cores. That was a whole bunch, not just one or two. With this whole bunch, after absorbing them all, she could completely upgrade to a second-level healing ability user.
Level 2 healing psychics can join the base's medical team and don't have to take risks anymore. Shen Mianmian was worried about Mo Fei. Wasn't Mo Fei afraid that she would just go back to the base after upgrading?
"Do you want it? If you don't, I'll lose it."
Mo Fei held the crystal core in his hand and reached out of the car window.
Although the CD-level crystal core has little effect on the progress of Mo Fei's space improvement, a fly is still meat no matter how small it is. She certainly can't throw away the precious crystal core. She just wants to use this method to make Shen Mianmian accept it.
Mo Fei could see that Shen Mianmian was not a person with a heavy mind.
Just now, she was putting handfuls of supernatural crystal cores into her backpack, but the little girl didn't even look at her. She just sat there nervously observing everything, just to tell them from time to time which direction the most zombies were coming from. She had no intention of getting a piece of the pie.
Mo Fei is a weird person. If you want these good things, I won't give them to you. If you don't want them, I will give them to you.
In the end, Shen Mianmian didn't refuse anymore and held it carefully in her hands.
The look she gave Mo Fei became even more determined, just like the enthusiasm and determination of people looking at banknotes before the natural disaster.
The zombies are still coming in an endless stream.
Lin Jiyuan took advantage of the gap when only a dozen or so were left in the vicinity and sped up and rushed over.
"Be careful. There may be higher-level zombies around here."
Lin Jiyuan reminded.
Mo Fei's spatial law is only effective within a range of 20 square meters.
If an intelligent zombie discovers this and launches an attack from 20 square meters away, they might suffer. Mo Fei also considered this and nodded as he got out of the car.
"The dog is following us." Mo Fei tilted his head back and signaled.
Everyone looked back following the sound.
The giant bull terrier followed silently and lingered about a hundred or two hundred meters away from them.
It has snow-white fur all over its body, except for its eyes which are black.
The body almost merged into the surrounding snow.
If Mo Fei hadn't looked carefully, no one would have noticed it.
Seeing that it was discovered, the dog did not move away.
A pair of eyes stared at Mo Fei eagerly.
"Why do I feel like it's looking at me?"
Mo Fei felt a little puzzled.
I don't understand how she got the attention of the dog among the four people in the group.
Is it because she cooks every day and smells like meat?
"Leave it alone for now."
Lin Jiyuan parked the car in a corner beside the square.
As long as no one passes by, it's hard to see that there's a car parked here.
The few people ignored the Bull Terrier for the time being, and naturally did not see the Bull Terrier digging among the zombies killed by combustible ice and Lin Jiyuan and digging out a few missed crystal cores.
Its eyes glowed blue and it ate the food with saliva drooling.
"There are 6 floors in total. We will split into 3 teams to search. Ke Ranbing and Shen Mianmian will go to the 5th and 6th floors, and Mo Fei and I will go to the 1st and 2nd floors. The things on the 2nd to 6th floors are not very important, so just take some of them. The main thing is the 1st floor. Let's move as quickly as possible and gather on the 1st floor in an hour."
Lin Jiyuan took out a few storage bags and a walkie-talkie from the trunk and handed them over, then briefly assigned the tasks.
"Why can't I be in a group with my sister?"
Shen Mianmian screamed wildly in her heart.
But she couldn't say it, what if they thought she was a troublemaker.
With tears in her eyes, she chose to obey the organization's arrangements.
Methane hydrate has no objection to this.
He glanced at Shen Mianmian and said, "You're lucky to be in the same group with me. I'll kill in the front and you'll pick up in the back. You better be quick and don't just stare at my handsome figure."
“…” After Shen Mianmian looked at Mo Fei reluctantly for several times, she silently followed with a small fruit knife.
Seeing the two of them walk in first, Mo Fei exchanged a glance with Lin Jiyuan, then waved his hand and put the black RV that Lin Jiyuan had just parked into his own space.
If we put such a large truck of supplies here and don't store them in the space, will they be stolen? God knows if there will be anyone else around here.
"Let's go." Lin Jiyuan signaled Mo Fei to go first and he would follow behind.
"The little girl was almost hurt by your arrangement, but she didn't object. There is no democracy under the rule of power." Mo Fei said.
Of course Mo Fei knew that Lin Jiyuan arranged it this way, first of all to make it convenient for her to use the space to search for supplies, but seeing Shen Mianmian's aggrieved look about to cry, she couldn't help but want to laugh.
Lin Jiyuan: "...it's still not too late for you to join her team now."
"..." Mo Fei rolled his eyes at him.
The total construction area of Central Plaza is 370,000 square meters, and the main building area is about 220,000 square meters. There are many shops on both sides, with all kinds of well-known brands of clothing and luxury goods, as well as many Internet celebrity food restaurants that must be booked in advance or you will have to queue up for a whole day.
But now the doors of these shops were smashed down at the beginning of the natural disaster, and almost all the things that could be moved inside were taken out.
There were even more than a dozen corpses lying there.
These corpses did not look like they were bitten to death by zombies, nor did they look like they died of heat. It seemed that some were trampled to death, while others were stabbed or strangled.
All of this reveals the reality that everyone acts barbarically and for themselves under natural disasters.
If she hadn't been blessed with that pot and obtained this magical space, would she and her family have ended up like this?
Mo Fei didn't dare to imagine that possibility.
After taking a quick glance, she walked around the corpses and entered the building in the center of the square.
The building has 6 floors in total. The 3 teams have 1 hour to act independently.
If there is danger, use the walkie-talkie to call for help.
As soon as he entered the building, Mo Fei felt very strange.
It's very big here, so big that it seems boundless, but it's extremely quiet.
It’s not like outside, where you can hear the roars of zombies anytime and anywhere.
Ke Ran Bing had already taken Chen Mian Mian to the 5th floor, where there were an observation deck, various specialty restaurants, and a movie theater. The 6th floor was a theme park and a children's training institution.
After saying "be careful", Lin Jiyuan jumped onto the escalator and went up to the fashion and home furnishing stores on the 4th floor. The weather was so cold, and Lin Jiye kept saying that he wanted a new down jacket.
Lin Jiyuan always remembered his brother's words, so his goal was very clear.
"Starbucks and Luckin Coffee? How did you two open rival stores?"
Mo Fei was attracted by the coffee shop at the door on the first floor.
Mo Fei was wearing a lamp cap on his head. The milk and purified water in the bottle had long been snatched away, but there were a lot of coffee beans and coffee machines that no one wanted.
Guatemalan Antigua coffee beans, Ethiopian coffee beans, Sumatran coffee beans... unfortunately they all deteriorated due to the previous high temperature disaster.
"I'm late." Mo Fei could only abandon them with regret, waving his hand to put all kinds of coffee machines, milk frothers, coffee cups, and even tables, chairs, benches, small sofas, and peripherals into the space.
The coffee shop only took up a very short time of hers, and Mo Fei quickly rushed to the entrance of the supermarket.
Next to the supermarket entrance are more than a dozen rows of parcel lockers, as well as some small display cabinets selling mobile phones and home appliance accessories.
What Mo Fei didn't expect was that the door of the supermarket had been destroyed.
A hole as tall as a person appeared in front of her.
I just don't know when this hole appeared.
Mo Fei squatted beside the cave and thought about it, speculating that this cave was more likely to be from the early days of the natural disaster.
At that time, the whole city was without water and electricity, and supplies were cut off, and a zombie tide broke out.
There were far fewer zombies here than there are now. It was understandable that some capable and opinionated people got there first. It was not like now. There are so many zombies outside now. If you want to break through the zombie defense line, you don't have a cheating skill like Mo Fei's "Law of Space".
Since the hole was created at the beginning of the natural disaster, it is natural that some supplies in this super supermarket of more than 10,000 square meters would slip through the net.
Mo Fei looked inside the cave, but because there was no electricity, not only could he not see anything, but he could also smell a foul odor.
I guess the things in the seafood area and the cooked food area were rotten because they were not processed in time due to the high temperature.
Once we go in, I'm afraid it will be no less than a biochemical crisis.
The laws of space will only work if an external object attacks her. If this is poison gas, she will die.
"Hello, this is Mo Fei. Please reply if you receive this."
Mo Fei shouted into the intercom.
Mo Fei told them that she found a few gas masks and placed them at the entrance of the supermarket. When they came to look for her an hour later, if they saw that she hadn't come out yet, they should remember to put them on before going in.
After getting the reply, Mo Fei put on a gas mask and protective clothing and quickly went in.
Mo Fei had seen the layout of this supermarket on the Internet.
Entering from this entrance, the first thing you see is the cosmetics counter.
Needless to say, cosmetics that have been exposed to high temperatures of 60-70 degrees will definitely deteriorate.
Mo Fei walked in without even looking.
Next to the cosmetics display cabinet is the fruit, dried fruit and fresh milk area.
The smell of rotting fruit was overwhelming.
At the same time, what made Mo Fei feel creepy was a huge buzzing sound.
These sounds exploded above her head. Mo Fei looked up and saw at least fifty or sixty mutant fruit flies as big as fists flapping their wings and flying over her.
They should have hibernated after winter came, but were woken up by Murphy coming in.
Naturally, Murphy was regarded as "food".
After seeing what it was, Mo Fei was no longer afraid. After all, she had the law of space. These fruit flies were nothing to be afraid of.
She continued walking forward, trying to find something useful in the empty display cases. She squatted down to open the cabinet below, and heard the sound of something falling behind her.
Mo Fei turned around and picked them up. He didn't expect that there were two with supernatural crystal cores among these fifty or sixty fruit flies.
Mo Fei searched carefully and actually found a sack of vacuum-packed pecans and pistachios. These were probably brought in by the stackers and not put on the shelves yet. Because something went wrong, they were hastily stuffed into the cabinet below.
Now it's a bargain for her.
"Not bad. Still edible." The taste of pecans and pistachios had changed a little, but Mo Fei cherished food, so he didn't waste any that was still edible. He peeled a pecan and started eating.
If she had come a little later, these things would have been completely spoiled.
What surprised Mo Fei was that the dry goods area next to it had a lot of harvest.
The things that others look down upon the most are seasonings, but these are also the most indispensable things for Mo Fei when cooking.
Mo Fei was so happy to see the huge amount of Sichuan peppercorns, peppercorns, chili peppers, fennel, cinnamon, star anise, dried ginger, tangerine peel, bay leaves, lemon leaves, etc. that he almost flew away.
She picked up some and smelled and tasted them. These seasonings were all dehydrated and could be kept for a long time, even in the combination of high temperature and extreme cold without spoiling.
In addition, Mo Fei also harvested a lot of dried vermicelli, dried mushrooms and dried black fungus.
These things need to be soaked in water.
When the temperature is high, people generally lack water, which may be why no one pays attention to them.
Mo Fei walked through the dry goods area and came to the canned goods shelf.
It's empty here, there's nothing.
There were four rows of shelves, but there was only one bottle of Lao Gan Ma left.
Is this reasonable?
Reasonable. Mo Fei breathed a sigh of relief.
Forget it.
She didn't expect to find much food here, and what she found just now was enough to make her happy.
Mo Fei decided to look at the shelves that "no one was interested in."
For example, the daily necessities area.
During high temperature disasters, water resources are extremely scarce.
Taking a shower once a month was considered a luxury, and no one dared to use laundry detergent, shower gel, or other such things. No one would want them at that time.
But now it’s different. It snows every day and there is no shortage of water.
Everyone started to love cleanliness.
This time, the people in the town specifically asked Mo Fei to find some more toilet paper to bring back.
It's really painful when toilet paper is out of stock.
After all, we are not primitive people, and no one wants to wipe their butt with sticks or leaves.
The supermarkets in town are running out of stock.
Mo Fei walked slowly towards the daily necessities section, but unexpectedly heard the sound of fighting.
Mo Fei was startled and immediately turned off the lamp cap.
She took out the intercom, flipped the switch and tapped it three times.
This was the secret code they had agreed upon. Knocking three times meant that it was inconvenient to talk to someone when they met one, so please come quickly.
After giving the signal, Mo Fei lightened his steps and walked towards where the fighting sound came from.
She didn't expect that Lin Jiyuan and Combustible Ice were attacked at this time. They didn't even have time to send her a signal.
