No one expected that Lan Ke, who looked so young, could be so ruthless. Seeing them leave as soon as they said they would, all those people were dumbfounded.
Some people hesitated for a moment, and seeing Lan Ke and his group walking further and further away, they quickly gritted their teeth and followed them. However, most people chose to stay, as they knew there were many man-eating monsters outside and they didn't dare to risk going out.
As soon as the people left, the corridor became deserted. The remaining people thought about it and simply went home. In such a crisis, only the closed doors and windows at home can give them a sense of security.
The fog was very heavy, and the neighborhood was unusually quiet, with no one to be seen. At a glance, all you could see was the thick fog and the vague landscape and buildings in the fog.
Because the distance was not far, they only drove a large truck. Zhao Dong acted as the driver, Sun Yong sat in the co-pilot, and the rest of them all got into the car. The people following them did not dare to walk at all, and when they saw them enter the car, they all begged to get in too.
Lan Ke glanced at the reactions of Bai Hu and the others, and for once was kind enough to let them get on the car after symbolically collecting some fares.
The back door was not closed, and one could clearly see what was happening outside. Qian Sheng and Bai Hu were guarding the outermost area with weapons in hand, so they could react immediately if anything unusual happened.
Qian Sheng looked at the thick fog outside and felt his scalp tingling: "There's no one outside! It's so creepy."
"Don't be distracted, be careful of the monster's sneak attack!" Bai Hu warned him, and then looked at the people inside, "And you, now that you're in the car, be honest and don't try to play any tricks!"
There were 15 people in total, mostly young people, both men and women. They must be wealthy to be able to live in that high-end apartment. After hearing Bai Hu's warning, many people changed their faces on the spot. However, these people knew how to handle the situation. Although they were angry, they did not show their dissatisfaction like the fat woman before.
A chubby young man squeezed beside Lan Ke, holding a card in his hand and trying to persuade her: "There is more than 1 million in this card, you can take it. I don't ask for anything else, I just want to join your team! How about giving me a favor, beautiful lady?"
"Do you think I look like someone who is short of money?" Lan Ke didn't even take his card. "You should keep this card for yourself. When you can withdraw the money from it and spend it smoothly, come back to me."
Lan Ke looked at him with amusement. Not everyone could join her team.
Soon, they arrived at the mall. The supermarket they were going to patronize this time was inside the mall, on the underground first floor.
The truck stopped in front of the mall. Lan Ke looked at the mall, which looked particularly gloomy after the power outage, and frowned - this place gave her a really bad feeling.
Bai Hu was the first to notice that Lan Ke looked strange: "What's wrong with Sister Lan? Is there something wrong here?"
Lan Ke nodded: "Be careful when you go in, I suspect there is an ambush here."
"Wait! An ambush?" Qian Sheng opened his mouth in surprise. "No way? Monsters can also ambush? Is there someone hiding in there on purpose?"
Lan Ke rolled her eyes at him speechlessly: "Animals can ambush, so why can't monsters do that? Don't forget, monsters are also transformed from humans and animals."
Most alien species do not have reason, only the instinct to eat. However, there are a few intelligent alien species among them. These alien species have memories before mutation, and they can not only lead other alien species, but also learn to deploy troops and battle formations!
"Qian Sheng, don't think that monsters only eat people, they may also have brains. Remember, never underestimate your opponent!" Lan Ke warned Qian Sheng, holding the Mo Lin knife tightly, and walked into the mall first.
Bai Hu and several others followed behind her. Bai Ling, the weakest one, was surrounded in the middle, holding an emergency light in her hand for illumination.
Lan Ke said as they walked: "There must be a trailer specially used for transporting goods in the supermarket. When we enter the supermarket later, look for this kind of trailer first."
Because of the power outage, there was no light in the mall, and it was pitch black and looked particularly eerie. Lan Ke walked quickly in front, her soft-soled leather boots stepping on the marble tiles, so lightly that there was no sound even.
Although Bai Hu and the others couldn't move as lightly as she did, they instinctively lightened their breathing and footsteps. However, the 15 people following behind her had heavy steps, and their footsteps always made dull noises when they moved.
But the mall was eerily quiet, making the footsteps seem extremely abrupt. One after another, they seemed to hit people's hearts heavily, making people instinctively nervous and uneasy.
Someone nervously gripped the weapon he had just found and carefully scanned all the dark corners, his eyes flickering with fear.
Some people also quickened their pace and shamelessly followed behind Lan Ke and others - such as the slightly plump young man who wanted to join the team.
There is still some distance from the mall gate to the supermarket. There are many shops along this road, selling mobile phones, ice cream, clothes, shoes and bags, and jewelry.
When people go shopping in the mall on weekdays, many of them can't help but stop when passing by these shops. But today is different. Even the girls who usually like clothes, bags and ice cream the most, now want to walk faster and leave these shops as soon as possible.
Suddenly, a glaring bloodstain appeared on the white wall illuminated by the emergency light, and just below the bloodstain, a skeleton that had been gnawed clean was lying there.
Torn pieces of cloth and bloody feathers were scattered all over the floor. Not far away, there was even a half-gnawed hand, with gorgeous nails visible on the remaining part. The originally exquisite and beautiful nails now only made people feel horrified. Some of the timid ones even collapsed and screamed, wishing they could find a safe place to hide.
Lan Ke frowned and said nothing. In the end times, only you can save yourself. Those who cannot overcome their fear will only be a burden. She will never stop these people from seeking death.
Not far from the corpse was the escalator leading to the supermarket, but the supermarket had also lost power, and all three escalators were now stationary.
Lan Ke chose the middle escalator and rushed down, Bai Hu and the other five ran after her. The people behind them were afraid of being left behind, so they also ran for their lives.
But when they arrived at the underground floor where the supermarket was located, everyone was stunned.
Apart from the remaining blood and bones, there were no monsters in front. Instead, it was empty without a single shadow.
"Sister Lan, why aren't there any monsters here?" Qian Sheng couldn't tell whether he was more disappointed or relieved. "It doesn't look like there's any danger."
As soon as he finished speaking, Bai Hu slapped him in frustration: "Stop talking nonsense and be alert!"
