Rebirth Stockpiling: The Little Girl Sweeps Through the Apocalypse - Chapter 80
Feng Xiaoshi’s face was pale as she gave a bitter smile.
“Little sister, can I ask you for one thing?”
“Go ahead.”
“Can you wait until I turn into a zombie before killing me? I’m… afraid of pain.”
Yun Xiaoxiao felt like there was a thorn stuck in her throat, unable to spit it out or swallow it down.
She truly wanted to take in this older sister.
In her previous life, aside from her big brother, she had never teamed up with anyone else.
Because in the apocalypse, human hearts were the most unpredictable and difficult to guard against.
She didn’t want to gamble.
Once you lost that gamble, you paid with your life.
In this life, she had originally only planned to find her big brother and rely on each other to survive.
But she unexpectedly obtained a system.
The system said that as long as she completed tasks, she could have the strongest fortress of the apocalypse.
Because of her memories from her previous life, she knew that ten years into the apocalypse, there would be no more small bases left. Those who survived would basically all be in large bases.
And those large bases would disappear one by one under successive waves of zombie hordes, mutant animals, and mutant plants.
So she knew how significant it was to have a super fortress of the apocalypse.
Although she didn’t want to be a savior, who wouldn’t want to live in a safe place rather than worrying every day about whether their home would be invaded by zombie hordes or attacked by mutant flora and fauna?
So she was eager to build this fortress in the shortest time possible, while mutant plants and animals hadn’t appeared yet and zombies weren’t particularly powerful.
She needed manpower.
And the Scumbag Detection Panel gave her the courage to recruit people.
She thought about trying to accept some people who suited her taste.
This older sister had a desire to live.
Although she had no supernatural abilities or combat skills, she had the courage to give it her all and fight.
She admired people like this.
And she was willing to give her a chance to pursue the light she wanted.
But reality was often so cruel.
Just when people were full of hope, it would crush that hope to dust!
Yun Xiaoxiao looked at Feng Xiaoshi’s pupils that had already started turning white, and silently nodded.
Feng Xiaoshi smiled apologetically.
“I’m sorry for causing you trouble.”
Yun Xiaoxiao was about to shake her head and say it was no trouble, when suddenly there was a violent collision sound from the direction of the community gate.
“What’s going on?” Nie Yizhou looked towards the gate. “I’ll go check it out.”
As soon as he finished speaking, he vanished.
This scared the Wang Rongmei couple half to death.
Just as Nie Yizhou disappeared, Feng Xiaoshi fully turned into a zombie.
As she lunged towards Yun Xiaoxiao, Yun Xiaoxiao sighed silently and swiftly dispatched her.
Her corpse slowly fell, completely motionless.
At this moment, Nie Yizhou returned.
His expression was very grim.
“The situation isn’t good. There’s a large horde of zombies surrounding us outside! They’re very agitated and are climbing over the walls one by one. We need to think of a solution quickly, otherwise the zombies outside are very likely to get in.”
Hearing this, Yun Xiaoxiao furrowed her brow.
Earlier when they had fired guns at the gate, the zombies outside hadn’t been this agitated.
Although the guns all had silencers, there was still some noise.
What was going on now?
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully eliminating the zombies in one residential community!
Reward: Ten similar residential communities!
Reward: 100 points!]
As the system’s voice sounded, Yun Xiaoxiao clearly saw ten identical residential communities spring up on the far left of the high city walls in the space.
The electronic display on the self-service shopping machine also showed the current points as 119.
Yun Xiaoxiao’s face lit up with joy.
The task was completed, so who cared if zombies got in or not.
Of course, it was time to leave!
“What, zombies are surrounding us?!”
A frightened voice sounded from nearby.
Everyone looked over to see a group of people standing there.
There were about seven of them.
Yun Xiaoxiao was very familiar with these seven people. She had encountered them earlier in one of the buildings.
Among the seven were a middle-aged couple, a young couple, a security guard, a female property manager, and a middle-aged man with a bald spot.
They had all been crowded on the top floor of that building.
They had survived these past two months by collecting supplies from the upper floors.
The one who just spoke was the balding middle-aged man.
He seemed angry. “It’s you who lured the zombies here. You must take responsibility and drive them all away!”
“You want to find the culprit who brought the zombies? There, go talk to her.” Yun Xiaoxiao pointed at Wang Rongmei, who was cowering on the ground.
With so many people looking at her, Wang Rongmei felt very guilty.
She stubbornly defended herself, “What? I just shouted a few times. How was I supposed to know the zombies had such good hearing that they could hear such a small sound!”
The balding man and the people behind him exchanged glances, their eyes flickering.
“Let’s go, the task is complete,” Yun Xiaoxiao reminded Lu Chen and the others that it was time to leave.
“You can’t leave!” The balding man immediately led his people to block their way.
“Although it’s mainly her fault, don’t you bear any responsibility? You need to take responsibility for this too!”
Yun Xiaoxiao looked at him with amusement. “Mister… missing-a-patch-of-hair-in-the-middle… uncle, do you know why you’re able to stand here and talk to me?”
The man held back his anger, managing not to explode at Yun Xiaoxiao for mentioning his hair loss.
She’s just a kid, kids say things without filters. He wouldn’t stoop to her level!
Otherwise, he’d look petty.
But still, it was infuriating!
“Why?” he asked in a deep voice.
Yun Xiaoxiao revealed her dimples as she smiled. “Because we killed all the zombies in the community, that’s why you can come down from your building without a care.
In that case, shouldn’t you be thanking us?
Otherwise, you might not even have been able to leave your building, you know~”
The middle-aged man’s face reddened, left speechless by Yun Xiaoxiao’s retort.
Because everything Yun Xiaoxiao said was true.
They had thought about coming down before, but there were too many zombies blocking the stairwell.
They had tried to break through.
But all attempts had ended in failure, and they had lost many people in the process.
They originally had fifteen people, but now only seven remained.
The other eight had all perished while trying to push downwards.
Since then, no one had dared to make any moves.
They all huddled upstairs, living off the few remaining supplies.
If Yun Xiaoxiao and her group hadn’t killed all the zombies in the entire building this time,
They would probably have stayed hidden upstairs, eaten through their supplies, and waited to starve to death.
They certainly wouldn’t have been able to stand here in the open, breathing fresh air.
Even so, however…
“You’ve already killed all the zombies in the community, what’s the big deal about killing a few more?” The female property manager said with a pout, her tone dissatisfied.
Yun Xiaoxiao blinked her big, innocent eyes.
“Auntie, have you ever heard a saying?”
“What saying?”
“People need face like trees need bark. A person without face is invincible in the world, but a tree without bark is doomed to die!”
The female property manager: !!!
