The vehicle stopped by the roadside, and the four of them, along with a zombie, fully armed, walked toward the granary.

Once again, it was a journey of zombie extermination. The four of them instinctively protected Manyu in the middle, while she had no chance to use her chainsaw.

At the large gate, they got stuck for a moment, but fortunately, in this post-apocalyptic era, they used a little ammunition to blast open the gate, successfully gaining entry.

Surprisingly, there were no zombies inside.

However, they didn’t let their guard down. Chen Xiaofei, the most agile of them, was the one to scout first. After making sure it was safe, he signaled for the others to enter, and they successfully stepped inside the granary area.

As soon as they stepped in, they realized how dry it was here, no wonder the food could be preserved so well.

The granary area was filled with rows and rows of neatly arranged granaries. Chen Xiaofei quickly took a tour and found thirty-two of them.

“Wow, this place is huge! Do you think the little squad leader can handle it?”

Qin Luo folded his arms and nodded toward Chen Xiaofei, indicating for him to take a look. “I think she can.”

Chen Xiaofei turned around and saw that Manyu had already started collecting food, like a mouse in a rice barrel. She was using her unique ability to collect items by touching them. No matter how many things, if she was close enough, she could take them all at once.

For her, thirty-two granaries meant collecting thirty-two times.

It was way more convenient than in a supermarket or snack store. With a little swipe of her zombie claw, all the food was packed and taken away! It was just too satisfying!

White Shu had nothing to do, so he checked the quantity of the food reserves here. He was stunned when he found out.

One near-cylindrical granary could hold 7,500 tons of food.

And there were 32 of them here…

Qin Luo couldn’t help but exclaim, “Our lifetime supply of food is secured, and we can even feed many people at the base.”

White Shu nodded happily.

Wang Weihu was so shocked he couldn’t find the words, “The little squad leader is amazing!”

The little zombie didn’t know anything. She just knew she was happily hoarding things. She was lost in this happiness, and before she knew it, all thirty-two granaries were empty.

But her multi-faced cube space was filled with little compartments, and she felt a sense of satisfaction, a very, very happy feeling.

It was all food!

Various grains!

And rice was the most abundant! It seemed like it was of very good quality.

After finishing her collection, Manyu was content and dizzy, her eyes sparkling. Finally, Qin Luo picked her up and carried her away, “Why do you look drunk? Are you drunk on food?” he said, chuckling warmly.

Everyone was in a good mood.

Including Wang Weihu, White Shu, and Chen Xiaofei. It was a relief to have successfully collected so much food. Though it wouldn’t be enough for the entire base, it was better than letting it rot here.

The world after the apocalypse had become abnormal every day. No one knew what might happen next, so it was better to collect resources as soon as possible.

They also asked Manyu for some food, as they couldn’t explain it to the headquarters otherwise. After all, someone had seen them asking the children for maps.

To avoid trouble, they planned to sell the food from the space storage cards to the base for credits. This way, they could earn credits for daily use while also helping the base in a time of need.

After successfully leaving the granary, they continued to search for other survivors and scavenge additional resources from the area.

There were also several stores and malls in the small town.

However, there were no rescue teams nearby, and they were ready to return.

So, they directly took the survivors with them. The vehicles Manyu had collected earlier came in handy. The big truck was used to transport the survivors’ things, and the bus carried them.

The modified off-road vehicle led the way, with the other vehicles following closely behind.

They had been out for several days now, but the events they had encountered in just these few days felt more intense than the past few months. It was so “colorful” every day—nothing like their previous routine of commuting to work or school.

Manyu felt like she had been out for a long time, but in reality, it had only been three days.

It took some time on the road, and finally, on the fourth day, their team returned to the base. They felt a strange sense of relief when they saw the tall walls in the distance.

Then, it was business as usual.

They parked the vehicle for inspection, and the other survivors went to line up for quarantine before entering the base.

Many survivors, upon seeing the workers at the city gate, wearing red coats and name tags, couldn’t help but break down in tears.

They had finally escaped death. The days since the apocalypse started had been unimaginable.

The workers were very patient, offering some comforting words and guiding them inside.

Qin Luo and the others stood by their vehicles, waiting for them to be inspected. The vehicles would be taken away for cleaning and repairs and then delivered to the parking lot near their residences.

When they went out on missions, they could just drive them away.

Chen Xiaofei, as usual, stretched lazily and yawned, “Ah, so tired.”

White Shu, looking exhausted, moved his neck and sighed, “I’m going to take a shower and then sleep.”

They didn’t even feel like eating.

Wang Weihu went to find a place to smoke. He didn’t like to smoke during missions because of the stress, but once they were back at the base and relaxed, he couldn’t stay away from cigarettes and alcohol.

Qin Luo, as the team leader, went over to report to the city staff, registering the food they had brought back from the granary. “We kept two hundred pounds of rice for ourselves, the rest you can take.”

Du Chunjiang, the young lady in charge, was amazed. “Oh my god, really? You guys are amazing! Every time you go out, you complete several missions, but this time, you fought with a three-star mutated monster, and still managed to bring back food? Luo Shen, your team is truly my heroes! By the way, the forum has been talking about you guys lately.”

They were really impressive. While other people struggled to complete a single mission, even two skilled people were a challenge, and the 3A team was undoubtedly combat maniacs. Who could match their four? Now they even had a cute addition!

Du Chunjiang couldn’t help but glance at the little zombie and whispered, “She’s really so pretty and obedient… a bit cold though.”

She didn’t really like talking to her.

Qin Luo stepped back slightly, “Tsk, what’s with all the close talk?”

Du Chunjiang rolled her eyes, “Big brother, if we’re being honest, I should be calling you cousin. Why are you so nervous?! I just want to get to know her.”

Qin Luo smiled and said, “If you want to get to know her, just do it. Why whispering? And she’s not cold, she just can’t speak right now.”

He murmured to himself.

How cute was the little zombie?

She wasn’t cold at all!

Manyu had been waiting for Qin Luo for a long time. Initially, she wanted to leave, but the scent on him was so tempting that she decided to stay a little longer, just to smell it a bit more. She hoped it would help her sleep better at night.

The little zombie didn’t think her behavior was strange at all.
