“Killed zombies: +5; experience gained: +25; points gained: +50”

Hao Jian and the others killed a total of seven zombies when they came out of the gas station. One of them was killed by Lian Ru Ning and helped Hao Jian kill another three, but the one who dealt the fatal blow to these three zombies was Lian Ru Ning. The system included these kills when calculating the rewards.

Hao Jian silently wrote down the calculation method of this reward. Now she has 81 experience and 91 points. There is no need to worry about food issues, she just wants to upgrade as soon as possible.

Thinking about upgrading, she asked the system, “Does your mall function only provide food?”

“Of course not. As long as the host works hard in upgrading, there are more items and functions waiting for the host to unlock!”

Hao Jian then said, “It seems that as long as it is a question that encourages me to upgrade or complete a task, you have the authority to answer me!”

Compared to their other problems, the system always said that it had no authority to answer, Hao Jian seemed to have guessed some of the rules. Even if it may be just the tip of the iceberg, it is a new discovery.

The system feels that it is about to shut down and doesn’t know if the host’s prying is a good or bad thing. Even though the system can detect the host’s thoughts, the host can actually reverse it!

It took Hao Jian and the others about three to four hundred meters from the gas station to the store that sells second-hand cars for nearly half an hour. Unfortunately, the second-hand car shop and the shop that sells electric cars next to it has no signs of useable cars.

“Go to the viaduct as planned!” Hao Jian’s expression was not relaxed.

Although they did not find the car, there is still good news for them on the road. They found a lot of zombie remains on the road, indicating that there are still some people who are able to fight against zombies nearby. This reduced the number of zombies they encountered.

When they searched for several more stores, they met a group of people, most of which were young men with weapons ranging from kitchen knives to sticks.

But they didn’t seem to be a team. They looked to be together out of necessity.

The two sides were full of vigilance, but they didn’t mean to provoke a conflict. After all, no one knew whether the other party was infected with the zombie virus.

Whether it is Hao Jian or Lian Ru Ning, they actually look embarrassed. Their clothes were a little dirty, and a lot of zombie blood and broken bones were stained on the crowbar and axe, and one of Xin Ting’s arm was still injured.

If it hadn’t been for Lian Ru Ning’s identity and initiative to show that they were good people, they would have been hiding far away.

After inquiring, they found out that they were all residents in this neighborhood, because they were running out of food at home and it was not safe at night, so they decided to come out during the day to search for food.

Because of their actions, Hao Jian and the others did not encounter many zombies along the way. They also told Hao Jian, “Don’t talk about cars around here, all the cars have been robbed!”

In fact, although the population of this town is not as good as that of the county center and urban area, there are still tens of thousands of people.

On July 23, when the zombie outbreak level rose to the third level, chaos has already occurred in the town. Quite a few people keenly smelled the danger and bought good supplies early and returned to their hometown.

When the rumors spread on July 24, another group of people returned to their hometowns, and the market order began to be chaotic.

On July 26, zombies appeared in their sight. When they discovered that the news had been blocked, they also sensed the crisis. At this time, the market order was completely out of control.

It is no surprise that the people vying for survival supplies have been robbed of their surrounding cars, from trucks to battery cars. Not even a single wheel is left.

After looting everything here, they all rushed back to their hometowns. Only those who have no houses in the countryside and no relatives or friends to live in continue to stay in the residential buildings.

After hiding for two days, they had eaten everything they could eat, so they chose to search for the remaining supplies, or leave, or continue to wait for rescue.

Xin Ting asked, “Why is there no one to grab the convenience store at the gas station?”

They frowned and said, “On the 24th, the gas station employees stopped working one after another. On the 25th, their employees took away a lot of things and locked the door. You also know that the windows and doors are all explosion-proof glass and it’s not easy to get in. not to mention that there are zombies wandering over there. No one wants to take the risk without knowing whether there are still supplies inside.”

After they knew that Hao Jian and the others came out of the convenience store, they did have the idea of robbing them of their supplies, but before that, Lian Ru Ning opened the backpack immediately and took out all the food. Seeing that they were also pitiful, they left some snacks for each of them.

The goals of the two parties were different, so they separated after exchanging some information.

Xin Ting has some regrets about their food, so Lian Ru Ning tried to cheer her up, “At any rate, we still have snickers. High-calorie food can support me a longer.”

“But they have searched the neighborhood, how can we solve our food?”

Hao Jian finished her talk with the system and said, “Don’t worry about this for the time being. It’s such a big place, you can always find food.”

They killed two more zombies in the short distance just now, so only two zombies were left and she would gather up to 100 experience points for upgrades.

As for the level 2 permissions, the system still did not disclose half of them.

As the sun rises, the temperature gets higher and higher, and the asphalt pavement gradually became hotter.

Compared to the hundreds of meters that took nearly half an hour in the morning, their way t the viaduct was much smoother. It was because there were some people who came out of the viaduct just now, clearing many zombies first.

Hao Jian was a little depressed, thinking that the monsters which are her source for experience to upgrade has been robbed, but soon she thought that she almost got influenced again. It was, in fact, the best situation that she hadn’t encountered a zombie!

They did not find any cars along the way, but saw many cars that were scrapped due to traffic accidents parked on the road. The door of the shop by the roadside was a mess. Either the lock was picked or the shutter door was torn down.

Hao Jian and the others didn’t waste time to search, because useful materials might have been cleaned up by the surviving residents a long time ago.

It was almost noon, Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning killed another zombie separately and finally stood on the viaduct.

The view above the viaduct is very wide, from the left and right are vast fields and scattered houses. A highway traverses, staggering and crossing the viaduct one by one.

There are many zombies wandering in the fields, and there are many zombies who have been hungry for several days in front of the houses. Obviously, the movement inside attracted the zombies.

On highway below, it seems that there have been many very tragic traffic accidents, but there was no congestion. After all, it is very far from the entrance and exit, and the general congestion is mostly in the sections before and after the intersection.

“It seems that too many people have poured into the countryside and the number of people infected with the virus has also increased. Now, the countryside is not necessarily safer than here.” Hao Jian said.

“That seems to have to go first.” Lian Ru Ning licked her dry lips. They had already drunk the water just now, so they had to find some water to drink first, or they would have heatstroke sooner or later because of dehydration.

After they got off the viaduct, they walked for a while, and when they saw the zombies in the field seem to be running towards them. In order not to get caught up by the zombies, they had to run ahead again.

At an intersection, Hao Jian recalled the map. She remembered that there was a river nearby, and the river was the bank. This is already regarded as the junction between counties. There are more farmland on both sides of the river and relatively fewer people.

So she took Lian Ru Ning and Xin Ting and turned into the fork road. After crossing some low houses, she saw the river behind.

Xin Ting saw that the surroundings were very quiet. There was no sound the zombies make when walking, there were no buildings blocking the view, and there was no transportation to block the way. Finally, she asked, “Where are we going?”

After observing the environment, Lian Ru Ning understood why Hao Jian had brought them here.

The river is five or six meters wide, and the water level is several meters above the embankment. It seems to be caused by excessive sand pumping. Because the embankment is more than one meter higher than the ground level, and the road surface is full of potholes, judging front he lush weeds and reeds, there are few cars passing by, and not many people usually walk here.

Because of these, this road will be much safer.

Xin Ting admired and was curious, “You know so much.”

Lian Ru Ning smiled, “I am from the school of Geology and Engineering, and I usually do some field work on these.”

After that, she looked at Hao Jian and felt that Hao Jian had brought them into consideration.

Thinking of this, Lian Ru Ning realized that although the two of them had developed a good understanding in the past few dats, she didn’t seem to know Hao Jian. Apart from knowing her name and bereaved mother, she didn’t even know what she did.

At that time, they had just met and were in a dangerous situation, so Lian Ru Ning hadn’t bothered to understand Hao Jian.

Of course, although she couldn’t think through what Hao Jian confessed to her, she didn’t take it to heart. After all, if Hao Jian really fell in love with her at first sight, her attitude should not be like this.

So what if Hao Jian accompanied her back to Southern City. She though, could there be other reasons for this?

Feeling Lian Ru Ning’s gaze, Hao Jian turned her head and looked at her, “You keep looking at me. Could it be that you’re moved by my confession and feel that you’re falling in love with me?”

Lian Ru Ning and Xin Ting staggered, almost tripping over the pit under their feet.

Lian Ru Ning was very sure that Hao Jian’s confession to her was just empty words, and she had no such thoughts at all!

Xin Ting was surprised, “You turned out to be. . . “

Lian Ru Ning rolled her eyes at Hao Jian then looked at Xin Ting and raised her eyebrows, “Woman, I’ll give you another chance to reorganize the language.”

This old classic line of the overbearing president Mary Su gave Hao Jian a familiar feeling/ She hurriedly called out to the system, “You’re the one who chose my partner. Isn’t it because you’re like-minded? You all like to read the overbearing president’s post?”

The system ignored her, but Xin Ting on the other hand was overwhelmed. Seeing her laughing, Lian Ru Ning couldn’t help but laugh as well.

They seem to have not laughed so openly for a long time. In the Past few days, which moment hasn’t been spend in panic, fear, and suffering?

Seeing that Hao Jian’s face also has a smile directed towards Lian Ru Ning, the strange feeling in her heart seemed to be more obvious.
