In the apocalypse, you start with two knives, and all your equipment depends on drops.

Chapter 150 New Business

The next day at dawn, everyone ate some dry rations and set off again.

We traveled at various stops, and five days passed in the blink of an eye.

Fortunately, the snow stopped on the third day after everyone set off.

With their view no longer obstructed, everyone could move forward more smoothly.

Sang Yu, who had been reprimanded by Chi Heng, wanted to get closer to him several times, but after thinking about it, she held back.

I'm scared.

The team has been attacked from time to time these past few days.

Yu Yao gained experience, acquired equipment, and treated her wounds while exchanging crystal cores.

He was arguably the one who benefited the most from everyone!

What's unsettling is that all the zombies they encountered were ice-type.

Ice-type zombies evolve extremely quickly in frigid weather; the group even encountered two level-four zombies.

But... what about the other zombies?

Don't even mention freezing to death, nobody would believe it!

The only explanation is that they're hiding somewhere, asleep, or quietly leveling up!

If it's the latter, things will be even more troublesome after the extreme cold passes!

In his previous life, the original owner almost didn't survive the extreme cold and was bedridden for several months.

Therefore, my memory of the months following the extreme cold is completely blank.

All I remember is that during that period, Lin Fengmu and his group often went out and rarely returned to their residence.

Even when they come back, they only get a quick one-night rest before setting off again.

He barely interacted with Yu Yao.

Therefore, she cannot draw any conclusions based on the current situation.

But it's most likely to be bad.

......

Perhaps sensing her heavy silence, Luo Mei asked, "What's wrong?"

Yu Yao replied, "I feel uneasy that none of the other zombies have appeared."

Luo Mei tugged at Yu Yao's wrist, gently squeezed it to comfort her, and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid, we are also making progress."

Right.

Her teammates and she are both improving rapidly, so there's no need to worry.

Yu Yao nodded and said out of the blue, "There's a mine ahead."

Luo Mei was about to speak when her expression suddenly changed, and she looked at Chi Heng: "Boss, there's an underground mine about 100 meters ahead, and it's about to collapse."

"What kind of mine?"

"Coal mine."

After hearing this, Chi Heng strode towards Lei Xuanqing's direction.

Seeing this, Lei Xuanqing knew without even thinking that something must be wrong.

So they immediately stopped the procession and went to meet them.

"What happened?"

Chi Heng said directly, "There is an underground mine ahead that is about to collapse, it's very dangerous."

"What kind of mine?"

"Coal mine."

Lei Xuanqing's eyes flickered. "You change your route, and I'll take some people to collect some. Coal is an essential and scarce resource right now."

"It's about to collapse, it's too dangerous."

"Alas, fortune favors the bold."

Chi Heng: "......"

It seems everyone likes this saying.

"I'll go with you, but come back quickly."

"That's a good feeling."

After returning to the team and giving instructions to the others, Chi Heng left the team with Lei Xuanqing and a spatial ability user.

The remaining people, led by Lin Fengmu, took a detour.

With Chi Heng gone, Sang Yu came back to life.

She strode over to the white tiger and said to Yu Yao, "Sister, can I borrow your white tiger for a ride? I'm really exhausted. I can pay you with crystal cores."

Luo Mei clicked her tongue, "Big sister, you've got the wrong name. You're several years older than A Yao!"

"Huh?" Sang Yu was taken aback. "Really? I thought it was my older sister, judging from her appearance..."

Luo Mei narrowed her eyes, "She looks much younger than you, so don't lie through your teeth."

Sang Yu bit her lip in grievance and said to Dongfang Jin beside her, "Brother Jin, why does Sister Luo Mei still dislike me so much? What did I do wrong?"

Dongfang Jin said gently, "Your mistake was coming in front of us and getting in our way. Do you really think that we won't kill you just because the boss isn't here?"

His voice was gentle and clear; if you didn't listen to what he was saying, you would think he was whispering something loving.

Tender and moving.

Sang Yu instantly lost all desire to pretend. After glaring at Dongfang Jin, she turned and left with a cold face.

Yu Yao yawned, feeling a little bored.

"How much longer until we reach northern Shanxi?"

Luo Mei said, "At the current speed, three days."

"I'm not going to dawdle anymore, I'm annoyed."

As Yu Yao spoke, she looked at Dongfang Jin and said, "Second Brother."

Dongfang Jin understood her emotions almost immediately.

"If we don't want to waste time, let's go first."

Yu Yao sighed, "What if the people behind us get injured?"

Why bother with them?

"Never mind, at least we'll finish what we started."

Luo Mei instantly understood what she meant and immediately took out a megaphone from the shared space.

Upon seeing this, a hint of unease flashed in Yu Yao's eyes.

Sure enough, the next moment Luo Mei's voice was broadcast to the entire team through the loudspeaker.

"Anyone want to ride a mutated beast to northern Shanxi quickly? Sign up! 50 level 2 crystal cores per person, or 10 level 3 crystal cores will do!"

Yu Yao felt so embarrassed that her scalp tingled, and she almost couldn't control her expression!

Sure enough, no matter how much she trained, she was still no match for Luo Mei, who was born with a natural talent, and could only be treated like a toy!

However, although this method is too flamboyant, it has to be said that only her sisters truly understand her.

Jiang Yi shook his head, "This pricing is really outrageous..."

Luo Mei raised her chin condescendingly, "They can sit or not, it's not like A Yao has any trouble controlling the mutated beasts."

......

Luo Mei's shout caused a huge stir, instantly igniting a frenzy among the rest of the team.

Some were tempting, while others thought they were too expensive.

Some people found it unbelievable.

Cen Yuemian was the first to pull three girls out and stand up, looking at Yu Yao: "Beauty, count the four of us."

Luo Mei pointed to Dongfang Jin, "Register with the second brother, he understands things clearly."

What's the point of figuring out just a few crystal cores?

I'm just lazy!

Dongfang Jin tried hard to control the twitching corners of her mouth and smiled as she looked at Cen Yuemian.

"Miss Cen, just come here to register..."

Cen Yuemian laughed heartily, readily handing over the crystal cores to the four people, and then asked, "Can I make a small request?"

"Just say it."

"Could we choose a beast that's as elegant as possible?"

"..."

A moment later, Ye Xuanmin walked over leisurely, his eyes gentle, looking like he was kind to Yu Yao.

"Little Fish, isn't it a bit too much of a show of force? It'll attract a lot of jealousy."

Yu Yao turned her head to look at her.

The moment she summoned her mount, Ye Xuanmin's malice level suddenly jumped from 80 to 88.

When it comes to envy, whose eyes can be as red as hers?

However, Yu Yao wanted to make her envious.

Checking Ye Xuanmin's status in the friends list, the malice value is 88, and her physical condition is poor.

Don't die, sis! Wait until your malice level reaches 90 or higher before you die!

We'll have to see what this seemingly sweet but actually bitter woman will reveal!

Yu Yao gave a fake smile, and instead of answering, asked, "Do you want to rent a pet? You can register with my second brother."

Ye Xuanmin's expression froze for a moment, then she smiled again: "I'll discuss it with Feng Mu. He's probably quite angry, Xiaoyu, so be prepared. But I'll try to persuade him, so don't worry too much. He won't really have the heart to scold you. After all..."

"My brother wouldn't even scold me, right? Thanks for reminding me, I understand."

Yu Yao caught up with what Ye Xuanmin was about to say and suddenly felt that she wasn't very clever either.

The original owner was manipulated in her previous life because she was too naive and too sensitive.

Ye Xuanmin paused for a moment, then smiled and turned back to Lin Fengmu's side.

After saying something, Lin Fengmu's expression changed repeatedly.

A moment later, Lin Fengmu came to Yu Yao's side and asked directly, "Have you thought it through?"

Yu Yao nodded.

Lin Fengmu pursed his lips. Although he was a little worried about the consequences of her actions, he did not choose to lecture her. Instead, he took out a large bag of crystal cores from his space and handed them to Yu Yao.

"There are fifteen of us. If we need more crystal cores in the future, you can tell me. Don't... make such a dangerous decision."

"I understand." Yu Yao only responded to the first sentence, pretending not to hear the second.

......
