When Xiahe arrived at the center of the planet, the snowmobile was already covered in frost.
The hood, wheels, protective gear, and even her hat and glasses were covered in a layer of solid ice. Ice crystals formed patterns on her goggles, almost completely obscuring Xia He's vision.
Xia He took off her glasses, her breath freezing in the cold air, and her hair was covered with ice crystals.
Looking up towards the center of the planet, the shopping mall now resembles a giant ice crystal dome, reflecting a dazzling light. The giant sculpture at the mall entrance looks like a luxurious ice sculpture, seemingly from a fairy tale world.
However, the scattered bloodstains on the ground suggested to Xia He that this was a bloody fairy tale, so she put the two little ones into her space and went to the mall alone.
When Xia He entered the mall through the broken entrance, she saw that the shops inside had been vandalized and looted, a scene of chaos and destruction. The glass windows were smashed, broken merchandise was scattered all over the floor, and valuable items had been looted. The bloodstains, already frozen, the broken display shelves, and the shattered windows created a horrific scene.
Xia He carefully searched for jade shops, and tried to collect some useful supplies along the way. Unlike the neighborhood where Xia He lived, this was a wealthy area, and the situation of being killed and robbed was not serious.
This place was already destroyed by lawless elements when the order had just begun to collapse.
When Xia He found the jade shop, it had already been destroyed. She could only rely on Xiao Hua's senses to search for any remaining spirit stones.
Just as Xia He was focused on her search, Xiao Hua suddenly told her that a group of people were approaching.
Xia He quickly found a hiding place to hide. When the group of people approached, Xia He found that there were 5 people in total, 3 men and 2 women. One of the women said, "Brother Ma, this place has been completely looted. There are no supplies left. Why don't we go somewhere else? It's so creepy here, I'm so scared~" After saying that, she leaned against the man in a coquettish manner.
At this moment, another aloof woman with a high ponytail saw the situation and said, "Go back? Go back by yourself? You don't even look for supplies every day, are you just waiting to freeload? If we go back now, what are we going to eat today? Your flesh?" After saying that, she rolled her eyes at the woman who was acting coquettishly with her deep eyes.
Xia He's legs were starting to go numb from squatting. The weather was cold, and she had been riding a snowmobile and searching for supplies, so it was really cold. To avoid freezing her legs, Xia He shifted her feet.
Unexpectedly, there were too many shards of glass on the ground. As Xia He moved her feet, she stepped on a piece of glass with a crack. Then one of the men shouted, "Who's there! Come out!"
Helpless, Xia He could only sneak out from under the counter, intending to send her away with a few words. Unexpectedly, the woman who was acting coquettishly said, "Wow, Brother Ma, her clothes look so warm. Take her clothes and give them to me. She's going to freeze to death in this weather."
Xia He didn't deliberately pretend to be weak when she went out today, because she never expected to run into anyone. So, Xia He's face was radiant, showing no signs of the disarray one might expect in the apocalypse.
The woman was filled with jealousy when she saw Xia He's face, while Brother Ma, seeing Xia He's stunning beauty, was filled with wicked thoughts. "Oh, where did this delicate little lady come from? It's so cold, why don't you come back with me? I'll warm your bed for you, how about that?" After saying that, he glanced at the two men next to him and revealed a lewd laugh.
