Chapter 30 Zombie Totoro
Lu Lingfeng and Yang Yuxing went to the seventh floor, which is where the electronic products are sold in this shopping mall.
"There really are a lot of discarded electronic products." Lu Lingfeng looked at the various products on the shelves and thought for a moment, "The prices are really attractive."
"How expensive were mobile phones and smart computers in the past? But now? These discarded electronic products are worth 1 point per kilogram."
"Sold by kilogram." Lu Lingfeng said.
"It's pretty good. At least I can exchange them for points." Yang Yuxing said, "Otherwise, they would just be left here and no one would care about them. They would have no value at all."
"You also said that mobile phones and smart computers were valuable in the past, but now they are no longer valuable."
Lu Lingfeng shrugged, "That's true."
Lu Lingfeng packed up the electronic products. They didn't have that many space ability users, so they found a big bag to pack the things.
Lu Lingfeng was putting these things that could be exchanged for points into the bag, and the next moment he was pushed away, followed by a sudden noise.
"Bang--"
After being pushed away, Lu Lingfeng quickly stabilized his body, and the knife in his hand quickly blocked the next wave of attacks. He did not forget to look at Yang Yuxing beside him, "How are you?"
Lu Lingfeng was pushed away by Yang Yuxing. He looked a little embarrassed at the moment, but he was not injured.
"fine."
Seeing that he was really fine, Lu Lingfeng looked at the thing that attacked them.
"Mutated...rat?" Lu Lingfeng was a little stunned when he saw the thing attacking him and Yang Yuxing.
"It's a zombie transformed into a chinchilla." Yang Yuxing said.
The appearance of a chinchilla is a bit like a mouse. The chinchilla is also known as the golden mouse, so it is actually an animal of the rodent family.
This chinchilla is very large, a bit like the big chinchilla in the animation a hundred years ago. Although it is not taller than a human, it is still 50 centimeters tall.
This chinchilla looks a little decayed, with saliva flowing from its mouth and its pupils still red. It clearly looks like a zombie animal.
"Zombified?" Lu Lingfeng said irritably, "Zombified animals are much more difficult to deal with than mutant animals."
"Hasn't City F already carried out many cleanup operations? How come there are still such powerful zombie-transformed chinchillas?" Lu Lingfeng complained while fighting.
"Zombified and mutated animals are not unable to move. They will always come from somewhere else." Yang Yuxing said calmly.
Lu Lingfeng cursed out loud. The level of this zombie-transformed chinchilla was not low. It was at least at the peak of level 2 and was about to be promoted to level 3.
"Squeak--" The chinchilla didn't feel any pain when it was beaten by Lu Lingfeng and Yang Yuxing. How could zombies feel pain?
It was just crying because it was annoyed that it couldn't eat the fresh meat.
"Old Yang, help me tie it up!" Lu Lingfeng said.
"No problem." Yang Yuxing responded. As an earth-type mutant, he quickly used his supernatural power. A burst of earth chains emerged and tied up the chinchilla's limbs.
"Old Lu, hurry up! My earth chains won't hold me for long."
"No problem!" Lu Lingfeng also responded, raised the knife and attached the supernatural power to it, and chopped it hard at the neck of the zombie-turned chinchilla.
"Squeak--" The zombie-turned chinchilla screamed angrily a few times, and struggled to break free from the earth chains when Lu Lingfeng attacked.
Lu Lingfeng cursed again, and when he saw the chinchilla break free from its restraints, he quickly turned a corner to avoid its attack. On the other side, Yang Yuxing also quickly attacked.
"This Totoro is amazing!"
The two of them could fight the chinchilla with all their might, but they couldn't let it get close to them. If they were scratched or bitten, they would have to worry about turning into zombies.
“Squeak…”
Yang Yuxing and Lu Lingfeng worked in perfect harmony. Although this chinchilla was difficult to deal with, they managed to solve the problem after half an hour.
"Tsk." Lu Lingfeng dug out the crystal core of the zombie chinchilla and frowned, "It took only half an hour to earn 200 points."
The zombie chinchilla is at level 2 and has not yet broken through to level 3. The corpse and crystal core together are only worth 200 points. It feels like a loss.
"Not bad." Yang Yuxing said, "At least it's much better than collecting these things."
"Are you kidding? Although the price of these things is not high, I can collect hundreds of kilograms for you in half an hour, which will give you hundreds of points."
"I fought this zombie chinchilla for half an hour, exhausted myself and even in danger of my life, and I only earned 200 points." Lu Lingfeng said unhappily.
Yang Yuxing shook his head, patted him and said, "Alright, pack up the things, including the body of the zombie chinchilla, and bring them back to exchange for points later."
"Yeah." Lu Lingfeng nodded.
Lu Lingfeng and his team encountered zombie chinchillas, but the members of Fengxing team on the other side did not encounter zombies of too high a level. They only encountered a few scattered zombies that were less than level 2 and were easily dealt with.
The group quickly collected a lot of things and were surprised to learn that the captain and the deputy captain had encountered a zombie chinchilla that was almost level 3.
"It's time to report this to the base. There are indeed more and more high-level zombies and mutated plants and animals around here."
"Once those dangers are eliminated, some ordinary people in our base will be able to come out and collect things in exchange for points."
The Southern Base is very close to Wenjiu's hotel, so the base hopes that ordinary people can come out to collect various things that can be exchanged for points, earn points by themselves and exchange them for various supplies and food.
The official base never keeps idle people. Even ordinary people who have not awakened special powers have to follow the training and at least have the ability to protect themselves.
Want the superpowers to protect them forever? Sure, you can exchange them for various supplies.
Don’t think about letting the psychics protect them for free, and don’t think that the base can support them for free. Everyone has to support themselves with their own hands.
Now there is a hotel not far from the southern base where food can be exchanged, and maybe other supplies can be exchanged in the future. Ordinary people who have not awakened their special powers must also take action.
"That group of people with special abilities must be cheating us again. How can we exchange discarded rice cookers and abandoned cars for food? What kind of idiot would do that?" An ordinary person at the Southern Base said unhappily.
This ordinary person without any awakened superpowers was the one who was pampered by everyone in the family. Before the end of the world, he was the kind of person who was incompetent at anything and acted like a boss at home, being served by his family.
After the end of the world, it was his family who protected him, so he was able to survive in such a world.
He was very hostile to people with special abilities and the top brass of the base, and was deeply jealous. He felt that if he awakened his special abilities, he would definitely be much more powerful than them.
Now that the base is asking ordinary people to leave the base and collect things that can be exchanged for points, he thinks that the top management of the base is deceiving them and that it is a conspiracy by the psychics to kill ordinary people.
After all, ordinary people do not have special powers, and if they leave the base, they will be killed by zombies and mutated animals and plants if they are not careful.
That's what he thinks.
