Liu Nian tightened her travel bag, which aggravated her back injury, causing her to wince in pain.
Most of the infected were attracted away by the crows, but a small number remained in place.
This is only what the torch can illuminate. It's nighttime and visibility is poor. We don't know how long the torch will last. To avoid any mishaps, Liu Nian plans to find a room to rest.
Moreover, even Liu Nian, a veteran of countless battles, felt a chill run down his spine in the third-floor corridor.
The remains of numerous infected individuals littered the ground, with bits of flesh and blood splattered throughout the passageway; it was no exaggeration to call it a living hell.
How about the manager's office? There's a bed there!
Thinking of the beautiful woman in the manager's office, Liu Nian felt a little excited.
But the corpse on the third floor dispelled his lingering thoughts.
He knew he didn't have the ability to remain calm and composed even when in enemy territory.
No trace of living people was found in the makeshift room on the fourth floor, but there was a lot of food.
The travel bag was filled with the rare foods that Liu Nian could find at the moment, but he naturally didn't care much for them.
He went upstairs and casually grabbed a bed sheet to cover the corpse in the hallway.
The woman remained lying in bed, lost in thought.
Seeing Liu Nian turn back, he was so startled that he quickly jumped off the bed.
The woman was now dressed neatly, which made Liu Nian a little disappointed.
The roast chicken on the table has long since disappeared and is probably gone forever.
Still unsure what to say, he decided to say nothing at all, threw his travel bag on the bed, and jumped onto it.
I lay down on the bed, carefully avoiding touching my lower back, and chose a comfortable sleeping position.
The intention is quite obvious, isn't it? Liu Nian closed his eyes to himself.
The woman gritted her teeth, seemingly wanting to say something but then stopped, and ultimately left the room without saying a word.
As she was leaving, she noticed that the person on the bed didn't express any other thoughts. The woman began to doubt her own attractiveness, as his gaze had clearly revealed other intentions.
She turned to look at Liu Nian on the bed, and after confirming that he had no other intentions, she sneered, "Thank you, you're a good person!"
Upon hearing this, Liu Nian smiled wryly: "A good person?"
He admitted that for a moment he wanted to pounce on the woman, but reason stopped him. It's better not to have a love affair with someone you've only met once and have no feelings for.
I wouldn't call him a good person, but the upbringing he developed in peacetime has given him a bottom line in his actions.
What if the other person makes the first move? Would I refuse? Could I refuse?
Liu Nian didn't know the answer.
The upbringing I received was that if you can't dress a girl in a wedding gown, don't take off her underwear.
It seems out of step with the times; perhaps being single until death is the destiny of this old-fashioned person!
With her thoughts in turmoil, Liu Nian tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.
He used the remaining mana to summon skeletons, and after his mana was depleted, he finally fell into a deep sleep.
His skeleton guards stood outside the room, while ghouls spontaneously patrolled the corridors.
Tiffany and her skeleton stood guard beside him, as quiet as statues.
Liu Nian slept soundly through the night, perhaps because the battle had taken a toll on his mental energy.
I woke up and it was already eight o'clock!
The bruises on my waist have not faded, and I still feel some pain when I breathe. Even accidental touches cause me pain.
"It seems I have to see a doctor." Liu Nian frowned.
This is troublesome; I don't know how long the back injury will last.
He quickly ate some breakfast and then prepared to leave.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I went down to the third floor, someone blocked my way.
The one in the lead was clearly the woman from the fifth floor.
Liu Nian was a little surprised. Seeing that the other party did not speak, she planned to wait for the other party to state their purpose first.
Seeing the black brim of the hat looking in their direction, Lin Feng knew he was watching her. She nervously swallowed and said, "We packed up the supplies last night. Here's the list. Please take a look."
"?" A huge question mark rose in Liu Nian's mind. What's going on? I don't want to take over this place.
Although you can fantasize about the fun of being a king, when it's actually your turn to take the stage, you'll feel completely drained in less than three days!
But it's not visible on the face, and it's not visible even when wearing a hat!
He reached out and took the list. As expected of a shopping mall, there were quite a lot of supplies. Unfortunately, his backpack was already full, so he couldn't take much more.
As for moving back to my own home, the streets are packed with vehicles, so it will require pure physical strength.
The workload is too much, I'm too lazy to do it!
Since they've been so generous, at least ask them about their future plans!
"What will you do after that?" Liu Nian asked.
“We plan to stay here, of course, if you allow us,” Lin Feng said respectfully, unaware of Liu Nian’s thoughts.
After last night's encounter, she felt that Liu Nian wasn't a bad person, just that his clothes were a bit scary!
"Okay, sure," he said curtly, clearly lacking in communication skills.
What the hell? Do I need to give permission for something like this?
After explaining the characteristics and importance of the level of infection to them, I asked them to find some painkillers for themselves, as a lesson learned!
Liu Nian turned and walked out of the mall.
The mall was clean and tidy, with neatly arranged items displayed along the way.
I have to say, the family really needs a woman. How about we pack up a wife and take her home?
They had guns, which they must have found by looting the dead people on the third floor, but they didn't have much ammunition. It's possible that Lin Long had distributed it all beforehand, so there wasn't much left for each person.
Liu Nian had no intention of making them hand over their ammunition; he had enough firearms for himself, and their usefulness to him was diminishing.
As for supplies, we have enough at home for several months, why would we need so many? Will they get moldy?
Considering they are law-abiding citizens, let's keep them to build a good relationship!
It wouldn't be bad to trade with them if there were a food shortage someday.
Surprisingly, a new leader emerged here in just one night.
I hope they can continue to live on this land!
One last glance at the shopping mall that had been left behind.
After taking another painkiller, Liu Nian tightened her backpack and headed home.
Under the blazing sun, the Northern Expedition came to an abrupt end due to his physical injury.
The power of just one strike is terrifying!
Liu Nian was a little envious of the warrior profession, at least they had a strong physique.
As for my 444 attribute points, sigh, it's all tears when I talk about it!
On the way back, Liu Nian did not choose any other route and obediently returned the way he came.
I don't want to encounter inexplicable enemies anymore.
Liu Nian thought of the Spider Queen, who was just a block away.
Sometimes ignorance is bliss.
The journey, which was originally going smoothly, was interrupted by a Licker that appeared out of nowhere.
Liu Nian hid under the shady eaves, watching the lone Licker surrounded by the skeleton army.
"You picked the wrong opponent!" Liu Nian complained as he looked at the Licker and drew a [Iced Watermelon Juice] card.
Sipping the ice-cold juice with bliss, what kind of warrior class is this? Did I ever say I envied it? Go away!
Tiffany, who was kept by Liu Nian's side, was leaning on her staff and tilting her head to look at Liu Nian.
He swore he could see contempt in Tiffany's soulfire.
Another ghoul appeared, and the Licker was no match for it. It soon met its end in the Northwest!
[Congratulations to player Liu Nian for successfully killing the Licker and gaining 15 experience points]
Ignoring its dying screams, he leisurely strolled over to the corpse.
Liu Nian saw it burst forth with a twisted resentment and a pile of game coins.
With a total of 25 game coins, Liu Nian's game coins have once again surpassed the 200 mark.
Two twisted resentments have accumulated; one more is needed to complete the mission.
It seems that not only Bursters can unleash resentment, but Lickers can too.
I wonder if horned monsters will drop it?
I shook my head; if I couldn't figure it out, I wouldn't think about it anymore!
Picking up her resentment, Liu Nian quickly walked towards home.
