Without the chubby zombie's interference, Meng De cleared out the zombies much faster.
Within a few minutes, the entire group of zombies had been wiped out.
Unfortunately, none of these zombies had awakened abilities.
So none of them dropped Zombie Crystal Cores like the chubby zombie's.
He examined the Zombie Crystal Core in his hand, which was about the size of a quail egg.
A faint stream of energy slowly flowed into his body from it, where he absorbed it. It felt very comfortable.
Nourished by that energy, not only did the abilities he had expended in battle fully recover, but his ability level directly broke through the middle stage.
"Hm? This crystal core can help raise my level?"
Yes, Host. Both humans and zombies have a certain chance of awakening abilities. Their crystal cores can be absorbed to raise your own ability level!
Meng De was delighted.
Good, good, good. There was another way to raise his abilities now.
During this time, he could only work himself to the bone on Jiayi and Bai Jie to increase his level.
As someone who had inherited his family's mission, living like this was simply too degenerate (refreshing) and fallen (exhilarating)! (Hahaha, this feels amazing!!!)
Now that he knew what Zombie Crystal Cores could do, once Jiayi awakened an ability, he could even bring her out to hunt monsters. "Fortunately, you can absorb these crystal cores just by holding them. If you had to eat them, that'd be truly clean and hygienic."
After silently griping, he put away the Zombie Crystal Core.
Before the apocalypse, he often delivered food around this area, so he was very familiar with it.
If he remembered correctly, Donghai City's largest shopping mall—BaoLong Plaza—was nearby.
If he didn't go loot some supplies, he'd be letting his 10,000-cubic-meter Personal Space down! Since he had finally made a trip out here, he naturally had to stuff it full.
However, the SUV he had come in had already retired.
Fortunately, there were plenty of cars at the gas station.
Very soon, he found another AITO M999, the kind every handsome guy supposedly had one of.
This vehicle was hailed as the toughest SUV on land, boasting the hardcore Black Tortoise Car Body and the strongest pressure resistance at its limits.
Its ability to send zombies flying was absolutely top-notch.
BaoLong Plaza wasn't far from the gas station. After sending dozens of blind zombies flying, Meng De finally arrived.
Luckily, when the apocalypse broke out, BaoLong Plaza had not officially opened yet. Otherwise, electric scooters alone would have jammed his AITO to death.
Even so, there were still many zombies wandering around the plaza.
To save time, he directly used telekinesis to clear a path, quickly carving his way through the zombie horde.
The mall's entrance had already been destroyed, saving him the effort of prying open the door.
Once inside the mall, there were hardly any fewer zombies than outside.
Only because he had Virus Immunity did he not need to worry about infection at all.
If it were someone else, even finding a "mama's boy protector" wouldn't help.
The first floor of BaoLong Plaza sold gold, silver, and jewelry.
Shining jewelry lay scattered everywhere, yet no one paid it any attention now.
That was the apocalypse for you.
Before the apocalypse, if some century's money-making, action-oriented Brother Hao had seen this, he would probably already be finding a few Big Circle boys to get to work.
Knowing that all the handsome billionaires wouldn't care about this trash, Meng De headed straight to the second floor.
The second floor was all cosmetics. He had no use for them, but his women could use them! With a wave of his hand, he took everything.
Continuing upward, he finally reached the third floor he had been eagerly anticipating.
The third floor was the clothing section, and he went straight for his target.
Ba Li World Family!
The moment he stepped inside, he found every style of stockings imaginable.
Black stockings, white stockings, flesh-colored stockings, fishnets, glossy stockings, knee-high socks, garter stockings, pleated skirts, short skirts, hip-hugging skirts. Ba Li World Family truly deserved to be called the home that slowed men down.
Not only that, there were all sorts of little scraps of fabric in different colors nearby, all trimmed with lace. Meng De grinned from ear to ear.
This would be enough for him!
Over this period, he had nearly worn through Jiayi's stock of black stockings, as well as this mature woman Bai Jie's flesh-colored stockings, earning helpless eye-rolls from both women.
With no other choice, Jiayi had even been forced to wear her younger sister's white stockings. Now that he had collected enough stockings, the matching uniforms naturally couldn't be left behind.
Flight attendant uniforms, nurse uniforms, academy-style outfits, secretary outfits, maid outfits.
Take them, take them, take them!
Take them all!
These things could boost "bow stats" at crucial moments!
Not a single piece could be left behind!!!
Thus, after a flurry of waves from his hand, the entire third floor was quickly emptied out.
He had to admit, this feeling of getting everything for free was truly incredible!
The fourth floor was dining, and Meng De did not even bother looking at it.
The fifth floor was entertainment, filled with all kinds of arcade machines.
Considering that some entertainment in his free time would be nice, he took them too.
Otherwise, if he kept working the "speed bumps," even speed bumps could easily break down. Especially now that his physical fitness had improved again. If he did not occasionally sneak across the street to ask Bai Jie for help, Jiayi's hands wouldn't be saved just by being sore twice. Thus, after his sweep, the entire mall was as clean as if locusts had passed through it.
"Oh, right, there's one more place!"
Meng De looked toward the underground supermarket area.
That was today's main event!
However, just as he was about to head downstairs, a sense of danger instantly enveloped him.
A Flame Ball condensed from fire shot straight toward him.
"Not good!"
He instinctively dodged. The flames struck the wall and instantly exploded, scattering countless sparks.
Even the surface of the metal-reinforced wall began to blacken.
Meng De turned his head and saw a zombie behind the stairs, its entire body burning with flames as it stared straight at him.
Hah! Like a hunter spotting prey, excitement flickered in the Flame Zombie's eerie eyes.
Its skin had cracked and blackened under the burning flames, like dried tree bark.
Zombie: Flame Zombie
Level: Late First Tier
Awakened Ability: Blazing Fireball (E-rank)
Ability Type: Elemental Ability (one of the most common ability types, mainly including the nine basic elements of "metal, wood, water, fire, earth, wind, lightning, light, and darkness," equivalent to a mage)
Another First Tier zombie that had awakened an ability!!! Meng De had just collected a large amount of supplies, so in his excitement, he had not checked carefully.
Otherwise, this zombie would have been dead the moment he entered.
"Fuck! You sneaky bastard, you actually launched a surprise attack without any martial virtue, huh!"
"Die!"
Furious, Meng De directly activated Space Black Hole, pulled out his silenced Desert Eagle, and unleashed a barrage of gunfire. Five minutes later, the Flame Zombie had been shot full of holes and collapsed to the ground.
Even its Zombie Crystal Core dropped out.
It was a red crystal core!
It was about the same size as the one he had gotten before.
"Damn it! I almost capsized!"
Meng De did not dare let his guard down after that. He activated Telepathic Perception and made his way downstairs.
He soon arrived at level -1.
At the entrance to the underground supermarket, Meng De saw several charred corpses.
Their genders could no longer be identified.
He guessed the Flame Zombie from before had done it.
That made him even more vigilant.
He drew his Tang Sword and reached out, trying to push open the already damaged entrance.
Hm? It actually would not open with a single push.
Using Telepathic Perception, he saw that the supermarket entrance had been barricaded from the inside.
And there was a woman beside it, gripping a fruit knife as she stared fixedly at the door. But when Meng De saw the woman's breathtaking face clearly, he froze. "Holy shit!!!"
"Da Mi Mi!!!"
Ding! Innate Royal Sister Saint Body detected. It meets the system requirements. Please record her as soon as possible.
