Zheng Yongnian was in a similar situation to Li Xiao; he also joined Li Xiao in using force to kill zombies.
Similarly, Zheng Yongnian, like Li Xiao, has made great progress in physical fitness.
The two fought with increasing vigor, wielding their curved blades with ferocious power.
Accompanying the two of them was Shao Jie, who was originally a superhuman, but not very effective in attack, so he could be considered a support type.
They could only follow Li Xiao and the others in terms of force, relying on weapons to kill zombies.
The three of them stood together, looking out for each other, and the effect was quite good.
Now even Tian Tian is a key player. Before, she underestimated herself, thinking she had no fighting power and could only hold the line. But now it's different; there has been a qualitative leap.
A water whip, as thick as an arm, wrapped around the zombie's neck and yanked it off, sending the zombie's head crashing to the ground.
In the rain, her special ability is the most useful and best suited for this kind of weather.
She was the main player, after all, the team's original main player, Vice Captain Cheng Shaolin, was now affected by the rainy weather and could not perform at 100% of his ability, maybe only 60%.
Yu Yanbin and Xiao Peng were not greatly affected. Meng Yang and Qiu Fengyu were at the back of the group, helping to clean up the mess.
Even after killing so many zombies, they still need to retrieve the crystals from the zombies' heads.
Nothing beats the use of wood-based abilities.
Thin vines were inserted into the zombies' heads, rummaging through them. If there were crystals, they were scooped out; if not, they were replaced with another one. It was a very quick process, much faster than searching by hand.
A team of people methodically began to expand outwards from the industrial park, and by the end of the day, they had cleaned three streets.
The speed isn't exactly fast; this place is close to an industrial park, surrounded by places to eat, drink, and have fun, but there aren't many residential areas.
Perhaps to make life more convenient for the people in the industrial park, there are many snack shops here.
Perhaps they thought these snack shops were too small, or perhaps they had already searched the area, but none of the superhuman teams had come here.
They didn't mind that it was small.
As long as there's something to gain, it doesn't matter if it's small or big.
I went into a few places and saw that they had all been cleaned up before leaving. That makes sense; whatever is usable, they wouldn't leave it behind.
If it's not there, it's not there; it was expected.
Just consider it clearing out zombies; there's nothing to regret.
Besides the snack shops, there are also several small supermarkets, clothing stores, internet cafes, hair salons, beauty salons, and so on.
After the zombies were cleared out, they all went inside for a look.
Some places still have some items left. For example, clothing stores have some clothes left; supermarkets have some unwanted daily necessities; hair salons have some shampoo products; beauty salons have some beauty tools and supplies; and internet cafes have some computers.
They only picked up things that were usable, and left the computers behind because they were useless and would just take up space.
They still needed the shampoo and conditioner from the hair salon, so they took some usable ones, and discarded the expired or spoiled ones.
The beauty salon is the same; it used to be a beautiful salon. Now it's dusty and grimy—dust everywhere: on the floor, the tables, the treatment beds.
The green plants at the entrance had long since withered, leaving only some withered yellow leaves broken in the flowerpots.
As the group entered the shop, the rainwater on their clothes slid off their raincoats and dripped onto the thick layer of dust on the ground, quickly mixing together to form a muddy mess.
The floor quickly became dirty and dusty, so I didn't stay long. I took what I could and left the beauty salon.
Looking at this row of empty shops, even the signs are almost illegible, some are blurred, and the lettering has faded.
The place where I used to live must have been bustling with people. But now it's dilapidated, like ruins, and nobody sets foot there.
Life is unpredictable; who could have imagined that one day humanity would face such a situation?
If I had known earlier, would I have cherished what I have now? Would I have loved the city and environment I used to live in even more?
Who can say for sure?
That's how people are; they only start to regret things when they're already in the mood. But by then, what's the use?
Walking in this environment every day, Li Xiao and the others were completely numb.
After seeing it so many times, it doesn't feel so sad anymore.
I've seen this scene countless times every day. I'm busy dealing with zombies, so I don't have time to think about anything else.
Having gone through so much, they now understand the importance of strength even more.
Only with greater strength can one survive in this cannibalistic apocalypse.
They are all working hard and making progress little by little.
Li Xiao understood very well that her special ability only played a supporting role; she had no combat power and was in great danger when she was alone.
If you work hard now, it will be fatal when you have to rely on yourself later.
She's making the most of every moment, being exceptionally focused with every swing of her knife and every exertion of force.
"Xiaoxiao, are you tired? Do you want to take a rest?" Cheng Shaolin asked with concern, not far from her.
I've been chopping for over an hour now, and my arms are already sore and my muscles are aching.
Li Xiao also felt that she should take a rest, as physical fatigue was affecting her movements. So she nodded in agreement.
Cheng Shaolin could tell that Li Xiao was really tired. He told Yu Yanbin, and soon everyone fought and retreated, clearing away the zombies in the vicinity. They then went into a relatively spacious restaurant nearby.
The restaurant's first floor was quite spacious, with seven or eight tables. However, it was dusty everywhere, and there was trash and debris on the floor, making it look very dirty and messy.
One of the glass windows on the first floor facing the street is broken; a large piece of glass is cracked, and some fragments are missing.
We definitely can't stay here anymore, so we all headed up to the second floor.
There were even more tables on the second floor, which Li Xiao also collected; they would be good for future firewood.
After removing all the table legs and tabletop, and piling them together with the firewood we had collected, there was quite a large pile.
With the current rainy weather, these are excellent supplies; we can't let them go to waste.
I don't know if the base will want this, but exchanging extras for points at the base is a good idea.
If we don't use them ourselves, we can sell them to others. The base should really need these things.
Li Xiao is now paying close attention to collecting things that ordinary people need, such as clothes, shoes, firewood, and daily necessities.
Previously, it might have required less, but now things have changed, and the demand is completely different.
Being able to exchange for points gives Li Xiao a lot of motivation right now, and she won't let go of any resources that can be exchanged for points.
