Chapter 9. Doomsday Supermarket (8)

     The fire axe is sharper than a baseball bat, and it is very easy to chop zombies.

     Ye Mo killed five zombies in a row. When she handed the fire axe back, she was still thinking about how to forge one for herself.

     Afterwards, Wang Xue learned to kill zombies like Ye Mo, but found that it was not as easy as she thought.

     Or she smashed the zombies into a pile of zombies farther away, or encountered environmental obstacles while running away, or the power was not enough after two headshots… There are always various unexpected situations in actual combat.

     Finally, when she ran back to a safe place, if Ye Mo hadn’t stepped forward to pull her up, she might have tripped.

     “Huh——” Wang Xue waved her hands, indicating that she was too tired to talk.

     Snap!

     Crack!

     Bang!

     Although there were many zombies rolling down from the fourth floor, their bodies were more fragile than those of adult zombies. Ye Mo actually killed four zombies in a row. The fire axe was even more powerful in her hands.

 

   【Detected that the survivor Ye Mo’s mental power exceeded the critical value, mental attribute points +1】

 

     As they went back and forth, Wang Xue gradually realized that the most amazing thing about Ye Mo’s zombie-killing skills was that she made very few unnecessary movements, and was as precise as a machine.

     This required a precise and rigorous plan and a calm and rational mindset.

     She really couldn’t do it.

     As long as she didn’t just imitate her and applied the few points she learned to her own zombie-killing process, her zombie-killing skills would become more and more precise.

     There were many onlookers around.

     Among the onlookers, there were no survivors who came out to hunt zombies together. Only two people from this world appeared with their mobile phones to help illuminate.

     One and a half hours passed.

     Ye Mo and Wang Xue killed nearly 40 zombies in total.

     Wang Xue only killed less than 10, but she was quite satisfied.

     I thought it was a 50% chance of survival, but now I have easily completed the side quest 3 of killing 20 zombies.

     There was only one zombie left standing, one crawling at the escalator entrance, and two zombies that fell halfway on the elevator.

     “A-Da–“

     It was Wang Xue’s turn to hunt again. She was already a little tired, but she still showed an incompatible vitality and sunshine unique to young people in this fishy environment.

     “Who? What are you doing?”

     Ye Mo held the phone steadily in her left hand and kicked out a box of items with her right foot, successfully stopping the two people who sneaked out of the shadows to prevent them from affecting Wang Xue.

     “We will help you kill zombies.”

     Both of them were survivors, and they were also fully armed, so their appearance could not be seen.

     But Ye Mo knew that the knife in the gray clothes belonged to the yellow-haired young man who was beaten by the woman before, or one of them was the yellow-haired young man.

     Ye Mo directly refused: “No need.”

     “This is not your home–” The yellow-haired young man straightened his back.

     “Bullshit!” Wang Xue exploded the target zombie, the fire axe in her hand was still dripping with black blood, and she said angrily, “You didn’t even help to light a lamp just now, and now you come out with your mobile phone to pick fruits, how shameless are you?!”

     “Wang Xue, pay attention to the zombies.”

     Ye Mo spoke in a very calm tone, and her eyes did not leave the two people. The eyes behind the goggles stared at them, making them sweat coldly and their hair stand on end.

     Of course, she may not realize her special situation.

     “A dog bites Lu Dongbin, and he doesn’t know the kindness of a good person!” After saying these harsh words, the two walked away in disgrace.

     Ye Mo raised her eyebrows and loosened her left hand holding the bat.

 

…

 

     The last zombie was also successfully exploded.

     Wang Xue followed Ye Mo’s advice, and the two of them built a simple warning wall of goods on the south side before returning to the children’s area.

     Ye Mo put down the baseball bat in her hand, put the backpack aside, and stretched out her hand to stretch her shoulders, which were a little sore.

     “Sister Jing!”

     Wang Xue took off her mask and smiled brightly. Her facial features were not outstanding, but she was very recognizable when she smiled with her fangs showing. She looked cute, naughty, or bad.

     “Wang Xue.”

     “Sister Jing should call me Xiaoxue. How can you call me by my name? That makes our relationship look fake!”

     “…”

     Ye Mo turned off her phone to charge it.

     Wang Xue also turned off the flashlight on her phone and switched it to the power saving mode. Her physique had not yet risen to the point of midnight vision. She could only distinguish the outlines of objects in the dark.

     The two opened their backpacks and prepared to eat what they didn’t know was dinner or supper.

     Wang Xue took out an unopened bottle of mineral water, a can of Coke, a pack of plums, two bags of Xizhilang jelly, two packs of Danone Xianqu biscuits, and a bunch of spicy ham sausages and chocolate with liquor fillings.

     It was quite hateful.

     “…” Ye Mo silently took out the few remaining fruits – tangerines and cherry tomatoes.

     “Sister Jing, I’ll give you the water. Take the orange in exchange. I don’t like tomatoes.” Wang Xue handed over the mineral water and took an orange from the fruit box. She smiled and said, “Except for compressed biscuits and water, all the other snacks in my backpack are what I like. But it’s not that I’m picky. I took them from the warehouse. There are a lot of things there.”

     “Warehouse?”

     Ye Mo hesitated for a moment, took the mineral water, and drank it very cherishingly. She really wanted to cry. When she was thirsty, she realized that water quenched her thirst many times more than other drinks.

     “Yes, the warehouse on the second floor. I was lucky at the beginning. I found the warehouse on the east side of the food supermarket on the second floor. I also got the fire axe near the warehouse. I thought I would hide there for 10 days.”

     Wang Xue looked a little depressed. She sighed and continued: “But there were too many people hiding in the warehouse. The escalator exit was narrow and crowded. There were not many people on the second floor and the first floor at that time. Instead, there were a lot more zombies. Many people hid in the warehouse, at least five or six hundred people.”

     “Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes. People become zombies, or check wounds, or tie them up, and there are betrayals… If I didn’t have a fire axe, and killed two zombies at the beginning to level up, I might have been killed by someone earlier.”

     Ye Mo silently handed over the last sugar orange. The value of mineral water was worth two oranges.

     Besides, there was so much information attached.

     Wang Xue took it with a smile and squinted her eyes. While peeling the orange, she said, “Anyway, the situation was chaotic in the end. I came out and they closed the door. I could only escape to the third floor. The luckiest thing was that I met you, Sister Jing, the God-throwing Hand, on the way. You are my benefactor!”

     “Be quiet.”

     Listening to the tune that took several turns at the end, Ye Mo got goose bumps all over the floor.

     Wang Xue used her hand to zip up the invisible zipper on her mouth, physically silencing her.

     In the dark night, the two forced themselves to eat the food.

     With the tacit understanding of hunting zombies together, they signed a real companion contract. When they slept together, they could relax their tense nerves a little.

     For example:

     “zzZz… Huhululu…”

     Ye Mo: “…”

…

     In the early morning, sunlight shone in from the glass skylights on the east and west sides.

     The supermarket was no longer pure darkness.

     The terrible scene in the south appeared in front of more people. The fishy smell and corpse smell made the whole supermarket shrouded in a bloody hell.

     Even though there is no hope of survival, people are still struggling to survive.

…

     Ye Mo and Wang Xue still went to the second floor to kill zombies, and they had time to rest together at noon and night.

     It was the morning of the fifth day, and Ye Mo heard the system voice,

 

   【Complete side mission 6: Kill zombies (100/100), strength attribute +1, agility attribute +1, constitution attribute +1.】

     Then, 【Open side mission 7: Kill zombies (1/200)】

 

     Ye Mo: “…”

     It is getting harder and harder to upgrade the mission.

     At night, I found that my night vision ability has been enhanced a little bit, and I can see words within three meters and not the size of a fly in the dark.

     On the sixth day, in front of the elevator on the third floor, Ye Mo found something wrong. Two shaking zombies appeared at the entrance of the corridor below. It was not only the appearance of zombies, but also the speed of these zombies was obviously much faster.

     They are evolving!

     Looking at the food supermarket, it is not just two unique ones, the speed of all zombies is accelerating.

     Their current speed is close to the average speed of ordinary people walking, and when they collide with obstacles, after multiple attempts, they will not obviously show animal instincts such as bypassing.

     Ye Mo’s palms were all sweaty.

 

     Bang——

     Bang!

      Bang!

     【Side Quest 7: Kill Zombies (61/200)】

 

     Yesterday afternoon, I could shoot the head once, but today, it was a bit difficult to shoot twice.

     Strength and weapons are not variables.

     This shows that the zombies are not only faster, but their nails are also sharper, and their bodies are obviously hardened.

     After collecting some basic data, Ye Mo no longer wanted to fight and returned to the daily necessities supermarket.

     Wang Xue, with cotton stuffed in her nostrils, spoke a little strangely, “Sister Jing, how did you here?”.

     “Zombies have evolved.”

     Ye Mo said this calmly and put down her backpack.

     Then she took out “The Little Mermaid” that he had read to kill time last night, turned to the page with the most blank spaces in her memory, took out a black pen from the watercolor box, and wrote and drew on the blank space.
