Chapter 99 Crossing the Bridge
The mutant spider explosion dyed the affected area green with blood, and the smell was everywhere.
Seeing that the spider was dead, Xi Qing hurriedly called Yun Shuhuai: "Are you okay?"
However, there was no answer from the other side, and the walkie-talkie seemed to have lost the signal. Xi Qing panicked, took out the walkie-talkie and pressed it hard a few times, constantly calling Yun Shuhuai's name.
Yun Shuhuai was very close to the explosion and was likely to be affected.
After a while, the intercom regained signal, and Yun Shuhuai's calm voice came from the intercom: "I'm fine."
Xi Qing breathed a sigh of relief, "You scared me to death. I couldn't contact you just now, and I thought you were in trouble."
"I don't know what happened just now. Maybe the intercom is broken. We will replace it with a new one later. Okay, come back, we will go to the bridge in a while."
"Okay."
Xi Qing rode her bike back the same way and happened to meet Yun Shuhuai who was coming towards her.
Yun Shuhuai was also riding a bike. Her clothes were clean. Except for the soles of her shoes, she didn't have any green spider blood on her body. The building she was standing on before was clearly soaked by spider blood.
But Xi Qing didn't care too much, as long as Yun Shuhuai was okay.
The two of them met and confirmed that the other was okay, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.
"What are you doing?" Xi Qing asked.
"Looking for a crystal core. I sensed that it is nearby."
The spider's crystal core was very large and was not blown away too far. Relying on Yun Shuhuai's energy sensing, the two found the large crystal core.
This crystal core is as big as a tennis ball. After rinsing it with water and holding it in the sun, it sparkled.
Yun Shuhuai took it and tossed it a few times and said, "It's so beautiful, I can't bear to absorb it."
"Then keep it first. Anyway, we have so many crystal cores, and this one is not a big deal."
Yun Shuhuai put the crystal core into the space, and the two rode back to the bridge.
There were only cars blocking the bridge, not even zombies.
Yun Shuhuai first threw a few energy blades to cut the transparent spider silk on the bridge, and then the two of them crossed the cars and got on the bridge. While walking, Yun Shuhuai sensed that the people wrapped in the cocoons hanging under the bridge were almost all dead, including ordinary people, people with special powers, and many mutant animals. They had been dead for a long time, but they all had two blood holes on their bodies without exception, and they were all bitten to death by spiders and hung here.
Yun Shuhuai adhered to the principle of never wasting anything, and controlled Hunter No. 3 to fly under the bridge and dig out all the crystal cores of the dead people in the cocoons.
Yun Shuhuai walked while using energy to manipulate and move away the vehicles blocking the road, and the two of them soon reached the location of the scrapped armored vehicles.
They did not directly blow away the debris on the bridge as they did before, just for these armored vehicles.
Yun Shuhuai first roughly checked the damage to the car. From the outside, it was indeed scrapped. The body of the car was deformed, and the heavy doors were pulled down for some reason. The weapons on the roof were also completely destroyed.
But these are not a problem. Yun Shuhuai collected all the armored vehicles and the parts thrown everywhere into the space for repair, and it will soon be restored to its original state.
There are still a lot of shells stored in the armored vehicles. If there was a fire before, the bridge would definitely be blown up.
In addition, they picked up several more guns on the bridge, but most of them were broken, and Yun Shuhuai threw them all into the space for repair.
Fortunately, there were still a lot of ammunition in the armored vehicle, enough for Yun Shuhuai to have fun for a while.
After packing up the things to be taken away, Xi Qing blew away all the vehicles blocking the bridge on both sides, and the bridge was completely clear.
The two got in the car and drove east.
Since killing the fourth-level mutant spider, there have been no other major threats in this city. However, they saw a few fused zombies, which were shot dead by Yun Shuhuai from a hundred meters away.
However, Yun Shuhuai made good use of those fused zombies before they died. It was faster and safer for them to gather zombies than for the two of them to attract them personally.
While collecting supplies in the city, Yun Shuhuai also killed a lot of zombies, and they were almost enough crystal cores to upgrade to the sixth level.
These days, they not only killed zombies while collecting supplies,
but also let Guo Baorou out to train more when they were free. Although Yun Shuhuai would train it every day when he returned to the space, it was still too comfortable to stay in the space. Letting it out would allow it to get familiar with the outside environment and not be scared by the zombies and run around again.
Yun Shuhuai was puzzled. Since it was so afraid of zombies, how did it dare to rush up and fight zombies in its previous life?
Guo Bao Rou has grown a lot in the past few days. After finally coming out, Xi Qing was surprised to see it.
"Is this Guo Bao Rou?! How did it grow so big, hey..." Xi Qing went forward and picked it up with a lot of effort. The whole cat stood up and was almost as tall as a person.
"It weighs more than 40 kilograms now. It will probably grow bigger."
"Wow, can it carry people when it grows up?"
"I don't know, but now it has to practice its courage. I don't want it to get lost again in the future."
Yun Shuhuai put a sling on Guo Bao Rou and led it with a strong rope.
This rope is used to leash large dogs, and Yun Shuhuai is not afraid that it will break.
Although Guo Bao Rou has grown up, he is still clingy. Every time Yun Shuhuai returns to the space, this guy rushes towards her when he sees her.
But since Guo Bao Rou mutated, its size has gradually increased. Now it is like a medium-sized dog. In addition, it has awakened the ability of speed. It rushes towards Yun Shuhuai like a gust of wind, which makes Yun Shuhuai feel very threatened. It would be very uncomfortable if it hits it!
So now when Yun Shuhuai enters the space, as long as she sees it running over, she will immediately teleport to another place, and she will never let it hit her.
Yun Shuhuai tied the other end of the rope to the car, and no matter how fast Guo Baorou moved, it could not be pulled.
Yun Shuhuai's current goal is to train Guo Baorou's obedience, so that it can obey his orders even when it is extremely scared or angry.
Cats are not dogs, and it is much more difficult to train them, but the IQ of mutants is higher than that of ordinary animals, so in theory Guo Baorou can be trained like a dog.
But generally speaking, the main reason why mutants are difficult to train is that they cannot be provided with enough food. Their wildness is magnified, and they may even kill humans as prey.
Yun Shuhuai, as the owner of Guo Bao Rou, has kept him and fed him delicious food and drinks. He is absolutely close to her. Now she just needs to wait for Guo Bao Rou to improve his IQ, which will make training easier.
Guo Bao Rou is already familiar with Yun Shuhuai's various instructions in space, so now we have to see if he will still obey her orders outside.
