Post-apocalyptic World: Stockpile Ten Billion Supplies at the Beginning

To Chen Luo’s satisfaction, after absorbing the crystals, everyone didn’t idle around but instead started their training in evasion.

The death of a teammate in the afternoon had a profound impact on them, motivating them to work harder. They realized that the more effort they put in now, the greater their chances of survival in the future.

Chen Luo also began absorbing the crystals. As a Level 4, he could absorb around 65 pieces of Level 1 crystals at once. The Level 3 Thunderbolt King, on the other hand, could only absorb about 13 pieces.

For Chen Luo, the Level 1 crystals were of low quality since he had already reached Level 4. They barely had any effect on him. Chen Luo estimated that it would take him around 20 days to reach Level 5. In his previous life, he was lucky enough to achieve that level in just one month.

You’re right, the speed of Chen Luo’s progress wasn’t significantly faster than in his previous life because in his previous life, when he was at Level 4, he mainly absorbed Level 3 crystals, which couldn’t be compared to absorbing Level 1 crystals.

It’s like Chen Luo being at Level 40 and fighting Level 10 monsters. If he can level up from that, it’s already quite good.

On the second day, they continued to kill zombies. It was a good day as only one team member was seriously injured but was successfully rescued, and no one died. They also completed the task of obtaining five crystals.

However, the hearts of the team members grew heavier because the probability of encountering spellcasting zombies had doubled compared to the previous day.

Instead of encountering one spellcasting zombie out of three, they were now encountering two spellcasting zombies out of three.

The world is becoming increasingly difficult, and Chen Luo coldly observes that if they can’t keep up with the evolution speed of the zombies, the casualties will only become more devastating.

If it weren’t for the survivors constantly killing zombies, causing a drastic decline in their numbers, there would eventually come a time when there were more survivors than zombies. But before the terrifying monsters appeared, humanity would be completely wiped out.

On the third day, there was a noticeable increase in the number of survivors heading to remote corners. These survivors were mostly in groups. They should consider themselves fortunate that they had the opportunity to gain experience and become stronger by fighting against zombies before they evolved to Level 1. It also allowed them to gather information about nearby survivors.

Unlike Chen Luo, they had almost no chance of surviving if they had to face the challenges alone.

It’s better for them to unite and escape together, even if it means a slim chance of survival.

In the morning, Chen Luo witnessed two incidents. He killed one group because they brought it upon themselves by daring to harass his sister-in-law.

Chen Luo thought it necessary to strengthen the defense of the base and have more people stay behind, or perhaps have the mage guard the place.

Chen Luo and his group arrived near a bridge where several cars were parked by the grassy area. Around seven or eight men surrounded a man and a woman, while a few people near the cars pretended not to see anything, including female survivors.

The man and woman seemed to be father and daughter.

Chen Luo had keen hearing and twitched his lips as he overheard one man saying with a malicious tone, “Little sister, I’m sure you don’t want to see your father get hurt, right?”

Based on that statement alone, Chen Luo could infer what had happened.

Although Chen Luo was ruthless, he couldn’t stand for such things. He thought it would be a good opportunity to collect the crystals from the group, as there might be a few level two crystals among them.

Mi Li also saw what was happening and exclaimed, “That’s my classmate!”

Chen Luo was taken aback and asked, “Are you close?”

Mi Li nodded and said, “We have a good relationship. She’s my best friend. Brother Chen Luo, please go help them.”

To Mi Li, the strangers were not worth saving, but if they were her best friend, how could she stand by and watch them in danger?

Chen Luo wasn’t completely devoid of empathy either. After all, they were Mi Li’s best friend, so he naturally decided to lend a hand and save them.

Chen Luo had no intention of wasting any words. Since they were a group, none of them would be spared.

Fear not the god-like opponent, but fear the pig-like opponent. Although a few of them didn’t participate, they had only themselves to blame for their bad luck.

Without hesitation, Chen Luo summoned the Thunderbolt King.

“It’s a dog.”

The Law King’s allure seemed to be even greater than that of the young girl.

The group of people looked at the Law King with greedy expressions, completely unaware that this was the arrival of the God of Thunder and Death.

They also had no knowledge of the relationship between Chen Luo’s group and Mi Li’s best friend, so they didn’t consider using her as a hostage.

Su Dazhu and Mi Ling also took action, easily killing the group of people.

Mi Li happily ran up to Zhang Jingjing and said, “Jingjing, it’s me.”

Zhang Jingjing, who was still shaken, was pleasantly surprised to see Mi Li and exclaimed, “It’s Mi Li, and Mi Ling too.”

Zhang Jingjing had been to Mi Li’s house a few times and was acquainted with Mi Ling. Mi Ling had also met Zhang Jingjing’s father, Zhang Dongcheng, once before.

After comforting Zhang Jingjing, Mi Li brought her to Chen Luo’s side.

Chen Luo observed Zhang Jingjing for a moment. She was a sweet-looking girl, and if Mi Li was the school beauty, then Zhang Jingjing could be considered the class beauty. Although she wasn’t on the same level, she still looked nice.

Mi Li pleaded, “Brother, this is my best friend, Zhang Jingjing. Let’s bring her back with us.”

Chen Luo thought to himself, “What’s missing from this name?”

Chen Luo nodded, “Alright, as long as she follows the rules on our side.”

He had to give face to Mi Li, and it wasn’t like they were completely refusing new members. If Zhang Jingjing had some abilities and proved to be useful, it could be an unexpected gain.

In Zhang Jingjing’s mind, she wondered if Mi Li and the others followed this handsome guy in front of her.

Without asking Mi Ling, Zhang Jingjing directly asked Chen Luo, so it seemed.

Chen Luo said to Zhang Jingjing’s father, Zhang Dongcheng, “Can you drive? Follow us in your car.”

Zhang Dongcheng, who appeared to be a mild-mannered man in his forties, was grateful and said, “Thank you for saving our lives. I can drive.”

Chen Luo arranged for Zhang Dongcheng and his daughter to ride in a separate car.

Coincidentally, Chen Luo was planning to head back as well, as they had a good harvest in the morning.

Upon arriving at the villa area, Chen Luo said, “Mi Li, arrange for your friend to stay with Shu Yun. We can’t let her stay here.”

Mi Li nodded.

However, Zhang Jingjing ran over and said, “Mi Li, let’s sleep together tonight.”

They had slept together before, and Zhang Jingjing saw it as normal and a way to deepen their relationship.

Chen Luo coldly rejected her, “No, without my permission, you’re not allowed to enter this villa.”

Having one third wheel like Mi Fan was enough. Did they need another one?

Shu Yun quickly came over and took Zhang Jingjing away.

For lunch, they had potato stir-fried with sausages, which was even more delicious than simply steamed sausages.

Chen Luo didn’t know how many people would survive, but whoever managed to survive would have a good meal, if possible.

Zhang Jingjing gobbled down her food. In the past, as someone from a wealthy family, she never really cared about such things.

Then she remembered something and asked, “Where’s Mi Li? Why didn’t I see her? What did she have for lunch?”
