Chapter 164: Chapter 164: Is Suffering a Blessing?
“There might be a rat hole in this warehouse; otherwise, why would rats always be running out?”
Huang Yunxiang analyzed. Having grown up in the countryside, she often saw rats scurrying out of their holes. If they could find the rat hole, perhaps rats would no longer come out.
“I’ll go in and check,” Xue Wanyi said.
He could use his Wind Element Ability to levitate mid-air, which relatively speaking, made it safer for him.
Xue Wanyi followed the direction the zombie rats had come from and indeed found a dark rat hole behind several bags of rice!
“There really is a rat hole!”
Xue Wanyi found a wooden board and blocked the rat hole, but it could only seal it temporarily.
After the people outside had killed all the zombie rats that ran out, they dared to enter. Mao Zhihang used his Metal Element Ability to melt a nearby shelf into a metal plate to cover the rat hole.
Only then did everyone clearly see what the warehouse looked like—it was even bigger than the supplies area upstairs!
Su Jin signaled Guo Yang to continue collecting. He nodded and, grasping a crystal core in his left hand, started gathering supplies despite feeling a void in his body.
“It’s a pity about these bags of rice and flour, gnawed by rats. I don’t even know if they can still be eaten,” Lin Cheng regretfully said, looking at the bags of rice and flour next to the rat hole.
“It’s best not to risk it, in case they were contaminated by the zombie rats. Eating them wouldn’t be safe,” Su Jin said, as she had seen black blood stains next to the rice, and although food was precious, safety came first.
Lin Cheng nodded and continued guarding beside the rat hole, ready to spot any zombie rats that might appear right away.
Lin Xiuyuan had wanted to tear open a bag of chips to eat, but seeing his dirty hands, he refrained. Diseases enter through the mouth; it’s better to eat them later when he gets back.
The warehouse was quickly emptied by Su Jin and Guo Yang. By then, Guo Yang was too exhausted to continue, so Lu Hao had Yin Chengtian help him rest nearby, while Su Jin took the opportunity to collect the remaining few shelves from the supermarket section into her space.
Moving along the corridor outside the cashier toward the exit, there were a few lingerie and children’s clothing stores, which Su Jin also unhesitatingly took into her space.
By now, they had completely cleared out the entire supermarket, leaving only some spoiled food and a few fish and potted plants that had died due to lack of care.
“Let’s go; there are people waiting for us outside,” Su Jin said with a smile, curious to see what kind of people they were.
Mao Zhihang tore a big hole in the rolling door with his ability, letting the outside light stream in, which was somewhat dazzling. Just as everyone began to make out the scene before them, they were surrounded by a group of about twenty men and women.
When Jia Sheng saw Guo Yang, weak and being supported by Yin Chengtian, he immediately started laughing. As he expected, those with special abilities must have exhausted their powers!
“Hello there, did you enjoy your shopping trip?”
“Enough talk!” Beiting Huang raised his flexible sword, “You needn’t worry about such groundless fears, for a dead person won’t be on anyone’s mind!”
“Hmph!” It was not pleasant for the Third Elder to be referred to as a dead man, “It’s not certain yet who will die!”
The three elders began to mobilise the divine power in their bodies. As night descended, the edge of the Black Abyss Swamp lit up with three golden glows. The rules of heaven and earth manifested, and beneath the feet of the three elders, a seven-pointed star formation simultaneously appeared, with a Holy Cross Sword in the center of the formation glittering brightly.
If four or five months ago, the people of Central Continent would have been filled with fear and envy at the sight of the seven-pointed star formation, at this moment, witnessing the rules of heaven and earth signifying the Heaven Rank strength of the three elders, everyone wore an indifferent look, without a hint of emotion stirred.
The three elders, who were initially proud, did not receive the expected reactions of shock. However, their mental fortitude was indeed strong. The three snorted coldly in their minds, summoning their magical beasts. Three identical divine-level magical beasts, Polar Lizards, emerged from the silvery light formation, revealing their massive and grotesque forms, prompting everyone in the camp to step back in unison, all thinking to themselves, have all the magical beasts in the world died out? So ugly!n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Xue Wanyi also walked over and said.
“Come on, brother, suffering a loss is a blessing, right? We might even see each other again,” Jia Sheng still tried to negotiate.
“Why don’t…
I wish you fortunes as vast as the eastern seas?”
Su Jin raised an eyebrow and said, as if to scoff at the idea that suffering a loss is a blessing.
What do you think?
