Chapter 278

"But the way he is now, he can’t even recognize people, isn’t that..."0

The person wanted to say more but was stopped by Lei Ming.0

"Enough, San Tiao, what he said isn’t entirely unreasonable."0

Lei Ming’s voice grew heavier.0

He glanced at Ah Hao, whose eyes were vacant, and sighed.0

"At least he hasn’t completely turned into a zombie yet. Once Elder Zhong and the others develop the vaccine, there might still be hope."0

Hearing this, the others calmed down.0

Yes, just yesterday outside the city, Ah Hao was on the verge of transforming.0

It was Ling Jing who suddenly bit him, causing him to pause his transformation and fall unconscious.0

Though he’s now half-human, half-zombie and has lost his previous consciousness, it’s still better than becoming a mindless, incurable zombie that attacks anyone in sight.0

"Sorry, I was just too worried earlier, and I acted impulsively. Please forgive me."0

Realizing his recklessness, San Tiao sincerely apologized to Ling Jing.0

Ling Jing shrugged indifferently, not taking it to heart.0

He did what he wanted to do, and whether others were grateful or resentful wasn’t his concern.0

He lived by his own rules.0

With that matter settled, everyone went about their business—some eating, others resting.0

The night passed quietly.0

The next morning, after breakfast, Yun Xiaoxiao and the others began gathering supplies in the city.0

In such a large city, there was no shortage of resources.0

Most of the survivors volunteered to help.0

Seeing that they didn’t have any space-type ability users, Yun Xiaoxiao agreed.0

She divided them into more than a dozen groups, led by people from Yun City, and they began scavenging through the streets.0

All the usable supplies they found were gathered in the center of the streets.0

Finally, Yun Xiaoxiao and Liu Xiaohui took turns collecting them.0

Liu Xiaohui’s spatial ability had already been revealed, so it was natural to make use of it.0

The supplies they had previously allocated with Jiang Huai and the others were all stored in Liu Xiaohui’s space.0

Now, with so many outsiders present, Yun Xiaoxiao still needed her to help cover up.0

As everyone was busily moving supplies, the flower petal next to Yun Xiaoxiao suddenly lifted its head.0

"There are a lot of footsteps over there!"0

"How many?" Yun Xiaoxiao asked.0

Hua Bai shook his head, "The sounds are chaotic, hard to tell, but it’s clear there are quite a few people."0

"Roughly estimated, at least over three hundred," Liu Xiaohui adjusted her glasses, her expression calm.0

"Let’s go check it out."0

Yun Xiaoxiao quickly headed in that direction.0

Behind her were Hua Bai and Hua Ye, Liu Xiaohui, Han Bing, as well as Ling Jing and Ah Hao.0

Meanwhile, at the intersection of a main street in the west of the city.0

"Boss, see? I wasn’t wrong. The zombies in the city have all been killed."0

A small, sharp-faced man grinned proudly at a large, dark-faced man beside him, as if seeking praise.0

"Now all the supplies in the city are ours. There’s so much stuff here, it’ll last us a long time. Plus, we can move into the city. Just thinking about it feels amazing."0

The Black Face Man gave the small man an approving look.0

"Good job, Earth Traveler Sun."0

Earth Traveler Sun beamed, "It’s my duty to solve problems for you, boss."0

The Black Face Man patted his shoulder, then waved his hand.0

"Brothers, let’s go, move the supplies!"0

The people behind him immediately cheered.0

"Let’s go, let’s clear it out!"0

"Haha, I want to grab a cigarette first. It’s been so long since I’ve had one."0

"Today we’ll feast!"0

The three hundred or so people chattered excitedly, their faces filled with anticipation.0

"Uncles and aunties, where are you all going?"0

At that moment, a childlike voice, tinged with amusement, suddenly rang out.0

Then, a small figure slowly emerged from a street corner.0

She was wearing a white down jacket, with a pink bunny hat on her head, revealing only a round, adorable face.0

Her cheeks were soft and fair, and her cherry-red lips curled into an innocent smile.0n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Where did this brat come from? Mind your own business, kid. Scram."0

Earth Traveler Sun waved his hand dismissively.0

"Taking without asking is stealing. You’re stealing my things. How can I not care?"0

Yun Xiaoxiao’s lips curved into a smile, her tone slightly exasperated.0

"Your things?" Earth Traveler Sun scoffed, "Ha, such big talk for a kid. What makes you think these things are yours?"0

"The zombies in this city were all killed by my people. According to the rules of the apocalypse, these supplies belong to me."0

She could choose to give the supplies away if she felt like it.0

But if anyone dared to covet her things, well, she could tolerate a lot, but being taken advantage of wasn’t one of them.0

"Ridiculous. Your people? How old are you? Who do you have?" Earth Traveler Sun sneered.0

The people behind him burst into laughter.0

"Haha, exactly!"0

"Even if the zombies in the city were killed by your people, we’re taking these supplies anyway!"0

"Yeah, that’s right."0

"Kid, go home and ask your mom for milk. You’re not even grown up yet, and you’re trying to compete with us for stuff. Do you even know your own weight—ahhh!"0

Before the man could finish his sentence, a black mist wrapped around his neck, lifting him off the ground.0

"Boom!"0

The next second, he was flung into the air and slammed into an abandoned car by the street.0

He bounced off and hit the concrete ground, instantly spitting out a mouthful of blood.0

Everyone stared in shock at the scene.0

"Is my little one someone a lowlife like you can insult so casually?"0

A cold, lazy voice rang out.0

Everyone turned to see a few more people walking out from the street corner.0

The leader was a young man with a devilishly handsome face.0

Though young, his languid aura was striking.0

In his hand was a swirl of black mist that hadn’t yet dissipated.0

Clearly, he was the one who had just attacked.0

Ling Jing’s power, displayed in that single move, immediately intimidated the group.0

Earth Traveler Sun and the others, who had been so bold moments ago, now shrank back, not daring to speak.0

"See? We could have talked this out nicely, but you had to force us to act. That’s not very friendly."0

Yun Xiaoxiao spread her hands helplessly.0

"Since you’re so eager to move things, go ahead.0

But everything must be brought to this street. If even one item is missing, I’ll cut off one of your hands.0

If anyone tries to hide something, I’ll chop off a leg.0

How’s that for a proposal?0

See? I’m being so kind."0

The Black Face Man and Earth Traveler Sun: !!!0

Kind?!0

Kind enough to turn them into laborers?0

Kind enough to chop off hands and legs?!0

Is this your idea of kindness?!0
