Chapter 652: Benefactor ( 1 )
The members said nothing and nodded when they heard Xiao Qi’s words, but their gazes clearly showed they misunderstood his meaning. Seeing this, Xiao Qi added, "I am really not interested in that kind of thing."
After he said this, Yuan Ruiye patted his shoulder and said, "You are still young. It is normal for you to like exciting play. We all understand."
"Brother Yuan, you misunderstand."
Before Xiao Qi could explain more, Jin Xuyan interrupted him. "Alright, clean up the area. We still have a lot of things to do."
Since his Captain had said so, Xiao Qi could only resign himself to his fate and be laughed at by his brothers and sisters.
While the members cleaned the area, Jin Xuyan handed the Mutant Tree’s branch to Lin Que and said, "I hope you will not tell anyone about what happened today."
Lin Que accepted the branch and replied, "I promise never to let a third party learn about what happened today. If any of my members leak the information, I will kill them myself."
Jin Xuyan glanced at the Blood Shadow members for a moment before saying, "If they really leak this matter, my Team will take care of them. There is no need for you to bother with it."
As soon as he finished his words, they felt a sting on their fingertips. The pain was like being pricked by a needle, and no one paid any attention to it.
Unbeknownst to them, Mo Junjie had already planted poison inside their bodies. The moment they spoke about Yin Yusheng’s ability to a third person, they would bleed from the seven orifices before turning into a puddle of blood.
Since they had completed their mission, Lin Que left Wanling City and went to Jinkui City to report their mission. As for the Phantom Team, they continued to clear the zombies and collect supplies from the red zone areas.
In the afternoon, the Phantom Team finally finished clearing the zombies in the city center and were currently collecting supplies when a group of people arrived in the outer area of the city center by trucks and buses.
Inside the biggest retail hypermart, Qin Luzi noticed a group of ability-users coming in their direction. Besides the ability-users, there were also a lot of ordinary people. Judging from their number, it seemed that these people were here for supplies.
Reaching this conclusion, he took out his walkie-talkie and said, "Captain, a group of people is coming. There are a total of fifty-eight people, with twelve ability-users."
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan used his walkie-talkie and said, "After we are done with this place, we will leave the rest for them."
"Understood," the members replied.
After they cleared the zombies, they did not collect the supplies from the stores and supermarkets in the city center, and went directly to the retail markets and hypermart.
While the supplies at those places were not as much as this hypermart, the combined supplies from these places and other areas should be more than enough for the survivors in this city for at least eight months to one year.
Since the hypermart was located at the heart of the city center, the group of survivors did not dare to go there rashly and decided to check the outer area first.
They parked their vehicles and went to check the nearby stores. Although there were no zombies, this area had been looted by the Phantom Team, leaving nothing but empty buildings.
Seeing this, one of the ability-users said, "Captain, there was nothing inside."
Not long after, the rest of the team also returned and shook their heads. Seeing this, the ordinary people were getting anxious.
The Captain thought for a moment and said, "Let’s go check another place. No matter how big their ability-users’ space is, there should be a limit. They would not be able to take all of the supplies in this area."
When the members heard this, they nodded and went to their vehicles. After everyone boarded, they drove toward the city center. This time, the Captain only sent two people to check the stores.
It was only when the sun had set and the sky darkened that they finally found a place where the supplies were intact. Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed.
The Captain looked at the dark sky and said, "We will stay here for the night and move the supplies tomorrow."
Everyone nodded in agreement and entered the supermarket. This supermarket was neither small nor big. It only had two floors and took up an area of two hundred square meters.
The first floor was where the goods were displayed, and the second floor was where the warehouse was. After they checked that there were no zombies inside, they finally locked the doors and windows and relaxed their guards.
Seeing so much food and water on the shelves, one of the ability-users could not help but swallow and asked, "Captain, can we have some food and water?"
It had been a month since they were able to get a proper meal. Every day, they were only able to have a pack of biscuits and a bottle of water. Now that some people had killed all the zombies, they finally dared to come here and collect supplies.
Since they still had to work tomorrow and needed strength, the Captain nodded and said, "Everyone can have two packs of instant noodles and two bottles of water."
After he said this, everyone cheered and thanked him. Even though they were eager, they still did things in an orderly manner. After all, no one wanted to cause trouble that damaged these supplies and ended up being expelled from their camp.
The supermarket sold portable stoves and pots, so they just used them to cook the noodles. When they were busy cooking, the Phantom Team arrived at the supermarket.
Looking toward the closed railing door, Xiao Qi asked with doubts, "Captain, we can just stay at the hypermart. Why did you want to come here instead?"
