Long before, Yao Qiubai had called the Jing family and subtly reminded them that the world was going to be in chaos and that they should store more food. However, her uncle criticized her for spreading rumors and misled the public, and scolded her.
Although Yao Qiubai was very sad, he still asked Lin Xiaoman to forward the post.
Lin Xiaoman is only responsible for forwarding the message. Whether people believe it or not is none of her business.
After another five days, the water and electricity had been cut off one after another. Only the mobile phone signal was stubbornly strong. However, most people did not have generators at home, so when the mobile phone was out of power, there was no way to get a signal.
Because the property was completely paralyzed, many people who fled from the city found an empty house after fleeing here and lived there.
Among those who fled, there were many virus patients, but most of the patients were in a coma and there was no apparent danger for the time being.
Those refugees who arrived early occupied the empty houses, while those who arrived late were crowded in the property complex. By the end of July, the property building was already packed with more than a hundred people.
There were so many people, and no one knew who bit them. It was like having onychomycosis, one person infected two. There were countless wisps of black air, and also foggy black air.
"This is only the first wave of the virus," said Butler Xiaobai. "It has a long infection period, and those who are bitten early are not fully mutated zombies. Those bitten by them will only experience cold symptoms, and some may not even experience the incubation period. On August 6th, there will be a second solar eclipse. By then, the virus will have evolved, and those who didn't survive the first wave of infections will be fully transformed into zombies. That's when the apocalypse truly arrives."
"Butler Xiaobai, do you think I should quietly purify all the infected people who can evolve?"
'No need. The zombie virus is a natural selection, and while the heterochromia purifies, it will also eliminate the chance of evolving into a mutant. So from a macro perspective, your saving people is meaningless.
Furthermore, I recommend that you avoid revealing your purification abilities in the early stages of the apocalypse. In the early stages, people won't be able to accept the apocalypse. If they knew you could save lives, they'd inevitably blame you for the deaths of their loved ones, and might even resort to extreme behavior. This would be detrimental to you.
Only when everyone accepts the end of the world and you choose a suitable time to step forward and save people, will they regard you as their savior.
You are just an ordinary person now, and the original owner does not require you to be a savior, so for now, just be prudent and protect yourself. At this stage, even if you stand up, it will be useless. No matter what you do, others will not be convinced and will only think you are crazy.
Ever since meeting her butler, Xiaobai, Lin Xiaoman feels like she doesn't have to think anymore. She can just consult Xiaobai about everything. Xiaobai will analyze the pros and cons for her, and plan the next steps to maximize the chances of completing a task.
The system's super brain is definitely much more powerful than the human brain.
Oh, oh, oh, she really wants an all-round housekeeper like this. Money is not a problem, the problem is that she doesn’t have money.
Why.
Butler Xiaobai said, "The master has ordered the four members of the Yu family to hide at home behind closed doors. They are not in danger. The master asks you, are you sure you can clear out the zombies in this villa area? If you can, he will not come back for the time being."
"Well, that should be possible. I'll try my best."
In order not to embarrass the tasker, Lin Xiaoman accepted the task.
With the help of the medicinal bath, she has cultivated internal strength. With her current skills, it is not a problem for her to fight against a hundred people at once. Of course, this "hundred" refers only to ordinary people.
Facing those early zombies with osteoporosis and slow movements, she should be able to fight 50 of them alone.
As more and more refugees came to the community, the food problem became apparent. From time to time, people would knock on the door to "borrow" food.
At first, when Yao Qiubai saw the elderly and children, he couldn't bear it and would give them a packet of instant noodles, a bag of biscuits, a bottle of water, etc. Lin Xiaoman didn't say much about it. After all, there are some things that you have to experience yourself to know what to do and what not to do.
As more and more people came to her house to "borrow" food, some even tried to break into the house and steal things by climbing over the wall in the middle of the night. However, order had not completely collapsed. Popi shouted a few times fiercely and scared them away.
After experiencing all this, Yao Qiubai obviously realized the problem and began to close the door tightly. Even if there were children crying outside, he would harden his heart and not open the door and ignore them.
A few days passed quickly. That day, after taking a medicinal bath, Lin Xiaoman waited for the solar eclipse in the yard according to the time.
It was still a mess outside. People were either crying and snotting as they went around "borrowing" food, or cursing and angrily at the bastards who stole the snacks.
It was almost noon when Popi became restless again, and within a minute it was dark again.
Here we come!!
The world suddenly became dark.
And suddenly there was a sharp scream in the darkness.
"What's wrong?"
"what happened?"
“Help!”
"What's going on?"
"Who the hell bumped into me!"
"It's so dark, don't run around! You might bump into me!"
…
When you can't see, the slightest movement will make you inexplicably frightened, and because of a scream, the crowd will panic.
Lin Xiaoman has already studied heterochromia thoroughly. During the day, these eyes can be used as a zombie location locator, but at night, she can't see them either. There's nothing she can do.
This solar eclipse was also short, ending in less than two minutes. Light returned once again, but upon closer inspection, Lin Xiaoman immediately thought, "WTF!"
This is black!
In the distance, above the property building, there was a thick black cloud. No one knew how many zombies were hiding there.
"Ahhh! Someone is eating people!" From upstairs came my cousin Yao Yao's high-pitched scream of terror, and accompanied by her voice.
Yao Qiubai, Yao Qiuzhi, Yao Yuan, Qin You, and even the little brat Yao Lele were attracted by her to the balcony on the second floor.
As the scene of cannibalism on the road in the community in the distance came into view, a chain of high-decibel screams suddenly rang out.
Each one shouted louder than the other, and even her uncle and cousin, two grown men, shouted at the high notes that broke their throats.
Lin Xiaoman, feeling like her ears were about to be shaken unconscious, quickly covered her ears, then ran to the basement and took out the weapon she had prepared early in the morning - a spear.
A long spear, a cold weapon.
She specially found a craftsman to make several weapons for her, and she liked this gun very much.
When he returned to the yard, several people upstairs were still screaming in fear. Lin Xiaoman dug his ears and directly opened the second large iron gate of the wall.
"Cousin! What are you doing?! Close the door, close the door! There's a pervert, there's a pervert eating people!"
Seeing Lin Xiaoman's actions, Yao Yuan upstairs didn't even bother to call out and shouted loudly to stop him.
Lin Xiaoman simply ignored him.
