Chapter 54 – Searching places (1/2)

Just when the first light appeared over the horizon, Ling Mo was already awake.

He had too many things that needed to be done today: hunting mutated zombies, refilling the viral gels that were running out, and…… stocking up on food!

The food he collected before was running out, but he had found half a box of instant noodles the night before. However, in the long run, it was far from enough.

Spending most of his time fighting, and walking, and using his spiritual energy had made Ling Mo’s appetite even more scary.

Of course the majority of this hunger was because the food he collected were mostly not nutritious. It would not have refilled his energy no matter how much he ate.

To just fill the stomach was far from enough.

Before going out, Ling Mo would always be well prepared. When he got up from bed, he immediately started to pack his backpack.

His destination was X City University; this place right now was already close. While on the way here, Ling Mo already discovered that to move through the downtown area was very difficult.

With a complicated terrain, numerous buildings, an amazing number of zombies, all these factors mixed together had resulted in this area becoming extremely dangerous.

Compared to head diving into X University with unknown situations, Ling Mo was much more willingly to use this building as his base while getting to know the surrounding area, then planning again.

Of course during the process of searching areas, you could also collect materials. If you were lucky, most likely you could find some places with possible mutated zombies.

Considering the fact that the number of zombies in this area was double the number near The Third High School, Ling Mo decided to leave behind some things he would need to use, to reduce his weight.

The on-site parking lot and construction site all had zombies wandering around, even if there were survivors coming through, they would most likely not have thought that the residential building was occupied. Thus, there was no chance of theft.

A knife and a dagger were tied to the waist and the last few chocolate bars were also stuffed into his shirt pocket. Lastly, he also dug out a military canteen, and filled the pot with mineral water. The rest of the stuff was poured out from the backpack, and piled together with the instant noodles.

For a long time, he had not carried an empty backpack. Although assignments were arduous, Ling Mo still could not help but feel much more light weighted.

To be precautious, before taking Shana and Ye Lian out, Ling Mo had specially hidden all the things in the room under the bed, then messed up the bed, disguised it as if it was uninhabited. He then opened the door widely, then reassured himself and gone out.

As part of the downtown area, although this place was not part of the main streets, the number of zombies was already outrageous, and the extent of damage to surrounding shops had also increased significantly. Just the amount of abandoned cars, and the residual trace of explosions already made people feel frightened, not to mention after the plasma coagulation that gave the floor a layer of red carpet.
