Chapter 194 Sunday Shopping Mall 2·Begin
The parking lot was quiet at night, and despite the sweltering summer heat, the air was damp and chilly.
As the sun sank completely below the horizon, the streets finally welcomed their visitors and became bustling with activity. The eerie screams of the mutated humans and the desperate running of the survivors mingled together, eventually culminating in heart-wrenching screams.
Even inside the RV, one can vaguely imagine some of the tragedies described above.
But none of this concerns them.
Miao Yin released the second RV, chased away most of the people, and comfortably occupied the large bed herself. Bai Niangzi was sitting cross-legged at the head of her bed, while Yan Shuzhou was outside the room.
As for how the items were distributed in the other car, she had no idea.
Time always flies when you're sound asleep; soon it's dawn.
While Miao Yin was getting dressed, Yan Shuzhou got out of the car and woke everyone up, telling them to pack their things and prepare to face the unknown ahead.
After everyone finished breakfast and got off the bus, Miao Yin clapped her hands, put away the car, and walked back onto the same passageway.
Although it was already bright outside, the places where the sun couldn't reach were still dark, so Miao Yin gave each of them a flashlight and some weapons for self-defense.
Under the flashlight beam, the burnt-out lock still hung halfway in its original position, but when the door was pushed open, the inside was different.
I remember the last time I came here, the emergency exit was full of corpses, but now it's clean, not even a bone fragment is left.
It seems that some clever mutant found this place and had a good meal.
Even without the corpses, the stench of decay lingered in the passage, and the gruesome black bloodstains on the walls were enough to send chills down one's spine.
In an instant, the drowsiness from just waking up vanished completely, and everyone became alert and vigilant about their surroundings.
"Everyone was very focused today," Miao Yin said sincerely.
They went up the stairs and saw that the escape route door, which should have been closed, was completely broken, and there were still traces of dragging corpses on the white floor tiles.
The dazzling sunlight outside shone through the glass, illuminating the mall, and they could finally turn off their flashlights.
"Why did we come here? Is there anything here?" Yao Yue couldn't help but ask, looking at the mess in the mall.
“The mall has a large flow of people. When the apocalypse came, the people here didn’t have time to escape and became food for the mutants. And those mutants couldn’t leave because the doors were locked,” Miao Yin said as she walked.
"Isn't this place very dangerous?" Upon hearing her say that, Yao Yue immediately realized the situation in the mall and couldn't help but feel a little scared.
During these days of struggling to survive in the city, food became increasingly scarce. As a local, I naturally knew about the famous Yakubi Department Store and had considered coming there to find some supplies.
After all, no one could have imagined that the mall's doors would be locked during the day, trapping tens of thousands of people inside and causing them to die, thus creating a large number of powerful mutants.
Fortunately, in order to get to the base, they abandoned this direction and took another route, eventually arriving at the zoo.
Looking back now, I'm glad I didn't come here, otherwise I would have been skinned alive.
"It's precisely because of the danger that we're here. As people with superpowers, we need a lot of crystal cores."
Yao Yue wore an expression that was hard to describe.
Admittedly, for a powerful person like Miao Yin, there is no fear of moving around in such places, and she might even take the initiative to seek them out, just like when she went to the zoo.
However, for people like them who don't have strong supernatural abilities, solving their basic needs for food and clothing is more urgent than improving their strength.
As for the eccentric Miao Yin and those other superpowered individuals who look like they're not to be trifled with, they probably won't come to her rescue when she's in danger.
Especially since her special ability has no practical value.
Yao Yue couldn't help but worry.
"I... don't really need these crystal cores..." she muttered.
For someone whose life is in her hands, even if she manages to obtain some crystal cores by chance, they won't end up in her hands. Even if the other party is merciful and lets her leave the crystal cores, what good will it do for her if she evolves to the top level with her special abilities?
Upon hearing this, Miao Yin grabbed her ear and said sternly, "Yao Yue, this is wrong of you. How can you be so unambitious?"
"what?"
"Like rowing against the current, if you don't move forward, you fall behind. As someone with superpowers, how can you be so self-destructive? I won't allow it. You must fight back and summon the courage you had when you tried to assassinate me!"
Yao Yue was held so tightly by her that she dared not move, her head buzzing.
The last assassination attempt was the most regrettable thing she had ever done. Not only did it leave no trace of harm, but she was also tortured half to death.
The other party, on the contrary, found it amusing and looked forward to her doing it again.
She smiled wryly and said, "Okay, I... I'll try my best."
Miao Yin then released her hand with satisfaction.
They are now in the center of Building A, and looking up, they can see the entire tenth floor.
The unseen layer is where the Laughing Slave was born.
"Get ready, I'm going to wake them up," Miao Yin said, taking a red alarm from her spatial storage.
Yan Shuzhou stared at the alarm for two seconds before looking away, pretending he knew nothing.
The machine turned on, and a piercing alarm broke the silence, instantly alarming the entire mall!
What followed was the sound of countless creatures moving through the ruins.
These noises came from all directions, making it impossible to find any direction.
The two summoners had already summoned their offensive creatures. Ling's thorns first circled around You Wenwen, keeping her away from the battlefield. Tu Hao was the furthest away from them, but his sharp wolf claws were still visible.
“The quantity is wrong,” he said, frowning.
The next second, hundreds of palm-sized deformed people emerged from the glass display case next to the toy car.
They all look exactly alike, with a body the size of a palm, a round green head, and a green skin covered with rugged black spots and sticky mucus.
"Croak!" xn
They all croaked like frogs.
Upon seeing that familiar face, Miao Yin immediately recognized it.
These are the children that hatched from the eggs laid by the frog-human mutant she killed.
These little creatures, with their large numbers and small size, have taken over this area.
“Too many,” Ling said.
After a few croaks of frogs, the other side launched its attack first.
Frogs the size of a palm rushed forward one after another!
Like the frog before, they have sharp teeth and an unusually long tongue, which they can use to attack.
They quickly dispersed, and Miao Yin casually grabbed a frog that pounced on her and burned it to death; it was obvious that it did not have a crystal core.
Of these numerous, small-sized mutant humans, only two or three are typically able to evolve a crystal nucleus.
Knowing that the little deformed people were worthless, Miao Yin stepped on the ground and jumped up to the second floor.
The fire easily burned down the little frog on the second floor. She sat on the handrail, swinging her legs as she watched the fight below.
Let these little guys practice.
After all, upgrading superpowers is never simply a matter of relying on crystal cores.
