Chapter 25 Zombie World 4
Chapter Twenty-Five
Lin Xia took out a portable gas stove, boiled a pot of water, made two bowls of instant noodles, two braised eggs, and a bag of beef. She planned to leave after eating; she couldn't stay in this place. She didn't know why that big monster had suddenly come to chase her.
She could only make the worst-case scenario: the biggest difference between her and others was that she had a better physique and higher attributes, so perhaps... she was better able to replenish her energy than others?
Whatever the reason, that monster must be from XX Group. She needs to stay far away from here, otherwise she won't be able to handle a few more monsters that big.
Suddenly, her phone lit up. She picked it up and saw a message—a recruitment message.
She looked up at the sky. It seemed that the world was indeed still functioning normally; only L and S cities were not functioning normally.
They saw many people with superpowers in the two city districts, and as Lin Xia had thought, XX Group was indeed a hub for all the big names in the medical field, not only in medicine but also in the biological field.
They were sending people to rescue them and hoped she could help. Lin Xia calmly put down her phone. Why should she go and die? It seemed they were safe until they were rescued, thanks to them.
The world was extremely quiet. In broad daylight, it was the first time she had ever felt such extreme quiet, making even slurping her instant noodles sound incredibly loud.
After putting away her belongings, Lin Xia went to the kitchen, took a boning knife, weighed it in her hand, and felt that she was not strong enough. She exchanged for 4 [Attribute Cards: Strength +1] to increase her strength to 20, which should make it easier to chop.
She jumped onto the wall using the debris piled up beside it, without making a sound. The zombies outside the wall wandered aimlessly, but when she suddenly appeared on top of the wall, they didn't even look at her, which suggests that their eyesight is also very poor.
Lin Xia took out her phone, looked at the offline map, confirmed the direction, and lightly jumped off the wall, quickly passing through the alley.
While the zombies are slow, have poor hearing, poor eyesight, and slow reaction time, she needs to run far away.
Just around the corner, I saw a woman holding a girl who looked about four or five years old, pleading softly for someone to open the door: "Please let the child in, I don't want to go in, please, you're the child's father, please..." The little girl covered her mouth, tears streaming down her face.
Lin Xia, who didn't want to meddle, paused in her tracks. She scanned the room with her spiritual power and saw a man embracing a woman, doing something indescribable.
The small convenience store diagonally opposite had its doors and windows locked, but there was only one zombie inside. Lin Xia slashed at the zombie that approached the mother and daughter, then used her mental energy to open the door of the convenience store by going through the crack in the door. The zombie inside rushed out, but Lin Xia killed it and threw it a little further away.
She waved to the stunned mother and daughter, and the mother burst into tears. She gently carried her daughter into the convenience store and knelt down before Lin Xia. Lin Xia handed her the knife in her hand and said, "Lock the door and don't open it for anyone."
Seeing Lin Xia walk away, the woman realized what was happening, quickly locked the door, and blocked it with her belongings.
Lin Xia glanced at the girl's father's door with disgust. If the zombies were attracted, the mother and daughter would probably be in trouble too. She used her mental energy to open the door. Seeing that the door was slightly open, she thought, "Whether they live or die is up to fate."
After leaving quickly, Lin Xia checked the time. She had been running for almost 3 hours. It was getting dark and almost 6 o'clock. She needed a place to spend the night.
There was a slightly larger supermarket here, but it was quite crowded. Just as she was about to leave, she suddenly saw a white light hurtling towards her out of the corner of her eye. No matter how she dodged, it still hit her.
"Ring ring ring ring..." A piercing alarm clock rang on her body, and a new status update appeared:
[Alarm clock: Guaranteed to wake you up if you want to stay in bed; the sound lasts for 5 minutes.]
Backup successful: Alarm clock *1, survival points required: 10
The surrounding zombies gathered around, and Lin Xia coldly looked towards the window from which the props had been thrown.
There were three men there. One of them, a young man with blond hair, pointed a pistol at her and shouted, "Hahaha, run! The zombies are going to surround you! Hurry up, I need to get supplies from the supermarket across the street. Lure the zombies away, hahahaha..."
The other two also looked at her with smug and malicious smiles.
"Yeah, you might still be able to escape if you run now, but if you wait any longer, you really won't be able to escape."
Lin Xia casually slashed at the approaching zombies, mimicking their wicked smiles. He took out the [Basic Protective Shield] card, activated it, and rushed towards the small second-floor apartment where the three men were. To their astonishment, he kicked open the door.
The three men then panicked and started yelling at her, "If you don't want to live anymore, don't kill me!"
"You shameless wretch! Get out of here, get far away from me!"
The blond-haired man raised his gun, his hand trembling: "Run that way, or I'll kill you."
The ringing noise hurt Lin Xia's ears, but at this moment, she was filled with rage. Without stopping, she rushed to the second floor, blocked the three people who wanted to escape at the door, and kicked them back one by one.
Backup successful: Backup space ring *1 (3 cubic meters), survival points required: 300
[Backup successful: Backup necklace: Constitution +10, requires 1000 Survival Points]
Upon seeing the notification, Lin Xia revealed a mocking expression. No wonder he was so arrogant.
The blond-haired man's eyes widened in fury as he raised his pistol and began firing wildly. The man next to him also threw a fireball, but it was all blocked by the protective shield.
Huang Mao was stunned for a moment, realizing he had kicked a hornet's nest. Lin Xia jumped out of the window and climbed directly onto the roof. He heard gunshots coming from inside for a while, followed by screams. Because the alarm clock was still ringing, more and more zombies were gathering around.
Those hiding nearby, seeing so many zombies, some couldn't contain themselves and started cursing, but this only drew the zombies' attention to them, and soon the cursing stopped.
The throwing knife flew in through the window and killed all the zombies inside. Lin Xia climbed into the house and saw the terrible scene inside, but she still had a necklace with +10 physique and a space ring, which was worth 1300 survival points.
He found two items among a pile of scraps of flesh. The gun was out of bullets. Just as he probed his spatial ring with his mental energy, he heard a notification: [An existing bound space detected. Merge?]
Lin Xia first looked at the contents. There were many bottled water bottles, making it look like a water store had been robbed. The rest was a pile of gold and silver jewelry... Lin Xia was speechless. It seemed that these were new players who had come in this batch, otherwise they definitely wouldn't have wanted these things.
Throw the items out, then put the water into the space first, [merge].
[Integrated; current space size is 6 cubic meters.]
Lin Xia took out the necklace with some disdain, but it was truly a fine item. She rinsed it with water for a long time, then washed it with alcohol. After thinking for a while, she threw the necklace into her spatial storage. It took her a while to take it out, and it was now a clean necklace. Only then did she put it on.
She climbed from the window onto the roof. As darkness fell, Lin Xia leaped between the rooftops. She needed to find a place to stay quickly. As for the zombies here, there was nothing she could do. The grievances had their perpetrators, and the debts had their debtors.
