Chapter 16 Strategy

“That isn’t too accurate though…” Chang knew that he could fight more than two or three people given the sensitivity and perception of his body he currently had.

“But that’s exactly how much danger I can sense from you.” The girl carefully calculated again and nodded with determination.

“Really?” Chang thought again and realized that vitality didn’t necessarily represent how good someone or something could fight. It definitely had some impact, but couldn’t fully determine how dangerous one was. For example, his vision and hearing had significantly improved, so his vitality had also increased. However, no one could predict how much these sensory improvements would benefit him in a fight.

“Tell me, what’s the danger level inside the hospital?”

“I’d say about 129…oh, no, it’s 130 now and it’s still increasing.” The little girl quickly peeked to the direction of the hospital, and her eyes revealed a trace of fear.

“Oh, that’s certainly a horrifying monster.” Chang nodded calmly and turned away, “Let’s go.”

The little girl also nodded. Though she didn’t know where Chang was going, she still followed him closely.

“About how far away can you sense danger?” Chang asked the girl as he was walking.

“About 100 meters…beyond that, the feeling becomes very blurry.”

“Is your face is still hurting?”

“Yes…but I can bear with it.”

“You’re a brave girl.” Chang kept pulling the gra.s.s aside. As long light from the Sun hit the Earth – even just the smallest amount – the plants could manage to thrive in it.

“How old are you?”

“12.”

“You must be kidding me.” Chang looked at the girl in surprise, “You look like you’re 7 or 8! Don’t lie to me!”

“I’m not lying to you! I’m just short… Although I’m 12, I’m only 4’4’’ tall…But don’t worry, you don’t need to take care of me that much; my physical strength is much better than an average kid. I promise I won’t weigh you down!” She anxiously said.

“Ah… Don’t worry, just stay with me. I won’t abandon you any reason.” Chang turned away to avoid her bright eyes, “Let’s go to a convenience store, someone I know is there.”

The girl didn’t say anything after hearing his promise, and followed Chang even closer.

They both stopped talking after the short conversation. With help from the girl, they avoided a level 35 organism far away. After walking two blocks, they finally returned to the front of the convenience store.

Chang knocked the door gently, then someone in the store carefully opened it.

About half of the people who stayed at the store yesterday had left, but luckily there were still people here that he knew.
