Chapter 719: Zombified Cockroach ( 1 )
While they were on their way to the next red zone area, the Phantom Team deliberately attracted the surrounding zombies and would stop to clear them out once in a while.
Because of this, when they reached the next red zone area, the sky had darkened.
Checking his watch, Jin Xuyan picked up his walkie-talkie and said, "Find a place to stay the night. We will clear the zombies tomorrow."
"Understood," Qin Luzi replied through the walkie-talkie. Soon after, the leading car gave a signal before it turned left.
20 minutes later, they drove into the gas station. After parking their cars, everyone got out of their cars and stood in the parking lot.
Qin Luzi checked his map and said, "Captain, there are a total of 7 people inside the convenience store. One of them is an ability-user, the rest of them are ordinary people."
Hearing this, Jin Xuyan nodded and said, "Fill up the gas and check the warehouse."
Receiving the order, the members split the tasks. Jiao Lizhi and Chen Wenwu went to fill up the gas, while the Wen brothers went to build a metal wall. As for the rest of the members, they went to the warehouse.
Inside the convenience store, several children looked at them from the one-way glass window. They squatted while they watched the group of strangers go to the warehouse area. They didn’t even dare to breathe too loudly, fearing that they would be discovered.
30 minutes later, they saw the two people who were filling the cars finally finish. They thought that the group would park their cars there, and they could steal one of the cars.
It had been months since they hid in this place, and the supplies had almost run out. They had to find a way to leave this place and get more supplies. Otherwise, they would starve to death.
Despite their careful plan, they never expected that the young woman would be a space-type ability-user. What’s more, they never expected her ability to be so strong. With just a wave of her hand, all of the cars were stored away.
The size of the armored cars was not small at all. To be able to store so many cars, her space must be at least 100 square meters!
"Brother, what should we do now?" the youngest child asked hoarsely.
A teenager, around 18 years old, waited until Jiao Lizhi and Chen Wenwu left before he replied, "We have to wait until tomorrow."
"If they leave, we will go out and see if we can get some supplies and leave this place. If they are not leaving, all of you will stay here, and I will go alone."
When the children heard this, a girl shook her head and said, "Brother, you can’t go out alone. What if you never come back like the other sisters and brothers?"
"Yuyu is right. Brother, we only have you now. If you are also eaten by the zombies, what should we do?" A boy grabbed the teenager’s arm tightly.
Feng Zirui looked at the children and said, "No need to say more. All of you have already trained for several months. As long as you work together, you are more than capable of killing a zombie."
"Our water and food are only enough for 2 more days. If we don’t find any supplies, we will die. By then, our friends’ sacrifice will be for nothing."
When the children heard his words, they recalled the brothers and sisters who risked their lives to go out and bring back food and water for them. Although they had no superpowers, they still went out and killed zombies.
Every time they went out and returned, they would be injured. Some of them were even eaten by zombies or turned into one. Recalling their words before their demise, the children couldn’t help but lower their heads.
Patting their heads, Feng Zirui added, "Live well and don’t waste their efforts."
"Brother, we understand," the children replied in a soft voice.
While they were discussing in low voices, Jiao Lizhi was sitting on the convenience store’s rooftop. From their conversation, she could more or less guess their situation.
"Gaia, can you check if any of them are infected with the zombie virus?" she asked in a low voice.
"Scanning subjects. Scanning complete."
"Host, out of 7 subjects, none of them are infected with the zombie virus. But one of them is in the process of mutating."
Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi raised her eyebrows and asked, "What is the chance for this subject to successfully mutate?"
"According to the data, the subject’s physical condition is under the lowest requirement. The chance for a successful mutation is 4%."
Jiao Lizhi looked at the red moon hanging in the sky and asked again, "Can you aid the subject to successfully mutate?"
"As long as the subject has sufficient energy and improves his body constitution, the mutation will complete successfully."
In other words, the person was lacking energy. She thought for a while before she leaped from the rooftop and landed in front of the one-way glass window.
As soon as she appeared, the children were startled and covered their mouths. They stared at her with wide eyes, full of fear.
Jiao Lizhi looked at her reflection on the glass window and smiled.
Even though the red moonlight reflected her figure, she could still see what was happening on the other side. Her eyesight was far superior to that of other level 4 ability-users. This kind of one-way mirror couldn’t hinder her vision at all during the night.
When Feng Zirui met her gaze, he knew that she had already seen them. Since she had found out, there was no point pretending not to know.
Standing up, he glanced at the children and said, "No matter what happens later, don’t go out."
The children were worried, but they knew that they were burdens. So they clenched their small fists and nodded. After giving them another glance, he finally opened the metal door and walked out.
