The warehouse is also well-arranged, although it's dark, but not damp.
Ling Mo let Ye Lian release Shi Bin, and he himself sat down on the only single bed in the room without any politeness.
His eyes are still a bit sore now, and he won't feel comfortable for a short time if he doesn't rest: "Thanks to your chili powder, I have to take a break here and study how to compensate for my loss."
"Haven't you already beaten Shi Bin once? It looks like more than once, what else do you want to compensate for..." The girl's tone was somewhat helpless, but Ling Mo and his group were too strong, and under the circumstances where she couldn't resist, her objection naturally had no effect.
She's absolutely right, Shi Bin wasn't just beaten once. After being released, not only did his arm movements seem very strange, but he also walked with a limp.
Shi Bin cautiously looked at Ling Mo, then slowly walked towards the girl. Although he had brushed past Ye Lian and Xiang Na, he seemed to have lost his confidence in resisting. These two seemingly weak girls were both people he couldn't contend with.
What's more, his dagger was still in Ling Mo's hand at this moment. Without a weapon, for an ordinary person like him, it was equivalent to having no combat power at all.
However, when Shi Bin reached out to help the girl up, she shook her head and refused. Shi Bin didn't insist, apparently understanding the girl's personality well. Ling Mo watched with a cold eye, also vaguely understanding that this girl was probably very resilient and strong-willed. But when she spoke just now, her tone was very gentle, giving people a completely different feeling from when she fought. Once that sharp edge was retracted, it was impossible to tell that she was actually an ability user.
Ling Mo was initially able to completely block her first attack, thanks to Ye Lian's special reaction, which allowed him to prepare in advance. Even so, he almost fell into a trap, from which it can be seen that if this girl could recover, her strength would not be underestimated.
The girl struggled to prop herself up and slowly walked over to Ling Mo's side, sitting down on the edge of the bed: "Don't mind, do you? You've seen it too, I'm not in good health."
"It doesn't matter." Ling Mo thought that if you don't care, why should I? Now the one who can't resist is you, not me...
Shi Bin hastily followed, staring angrily at Ling Mo, but having learned from past experiences, he didn't dare get too close to Ling Mo and didn't dare show his hostility too openly.
Watching him struggle, Ling Mo couldn't help but find it a bit amusing.
Just when Ling Mo was fighting with Shi Bin, he had already realized that this person was good at sneak attacks and was very cautious, but if he were to let him go out onto the main streets to face so many zombies, it would probably be very difficult.
Looking at the food he collected, it's clear that he doesn't have the ability. The girl's body also doesn't allow her to go out, and it seems like she has been barely holding on until now. Getting sick in a post-apocalyptic world is a very dangerous thing, because there are no doctors and it's hard to find suitable medicine. Especially when you don't have the ability to collect medicine, all that's left is to rely on fate. However, looking at this girl, it seems like she won't be able to hold on by herself.
However, Ling Mo always felt that Shi Bin was a bit overreacting, probably related to the "last time" he mentioned.
"Actually, I have some impression of that sister." The girl suddenly stretched out her hand and pointed at Ye Lian, saying.
Ling Mo was taken aback for a moment, then looked at the girl again: "Are you also from X City University?"
"Uh-huh. I think she was the school belle or something." The girl smiled slightly and said, "My name is Lin Wanqiu, I'm a freshman in the English department. Shi Bin is from the physical education department. Don't mind him, he's actually a good person. He's just a bit...high-strung."
When Lin Luoqiu said this, Shi Bin didn't show any signs of anger, but instead spoke fiercely: "It's not that I'm overthinking, it's just those people last time..."
Shi Bin repeatedly mentioned it, and Ling Mo probably guessed some of it. I reckon this girl must have met someone like Guang Tou before.
If it were really like this, then Shi Bin's view of other survivors, especially men as fierce as flood beasts, would not be something that can't be understood.
To know that in the end of the world, almost everyone's heart is tight with a string. Especially when the end of the world just arrived, even Ling Mo himself was full of confusion, every day muddled and struggling to survive like a mouse. There may be people with very good mentality in this world, but they are absolutely not the majority. Ling Mo stepped over this hurdle because he still had Ye Lian in his heart, while some people would become psychologically distorted because they couldn't step over it.
But most people are still very normal on the surface, but once that string in their heart is plucked, they will fall into a hysterical state.
Shi Bin estimated it was like this, while Lin Luoqiu had obviously already crossed that threshold.
"They all said they weren't that kind of person anymore...... Ah, how did you guys end up here? Also escaped from X City University?" Lin Luo asked again. Her tone was calm, seemingly not worried at all about what Ling Mo might do.
Ling Mo shook his head: "No, I'm planning to enter X City University. How about you, did you escape from inside?"
Shi Bin hummed and added: "Lin Luo Yang and I both escaped just a few days ago."
"I advise you not to go." Lin Ranqiu's eyes seemed a bit complicated, "With your strength, it shouldn't be difficult to take them and escape to the suburbs. At that time, find a secluded place, stock up on some food, and hold out until the country sends rescue teams. Although there are no rescue teams now, and all messages with the outside world have been cut off, I think they will eventually integrate a part of their strength."
Lin Ruanqiu was indeed a girl with ideas, but she didn't know that Ye Lian and Xia Na following Ling Mo were zombies. Without the gel, they would not be able to survive.
Suburbs also have zombies, but mutant zombies are rare, and higher-level zombies are almost non-existent.
Facing Lin Luo's good-hearted advice, Ling Mo shook his head and refused: "I have something to do, I must go in. Since you just escaped from inside, can't you tell me about the situation inside? The more detailed you are, the more I'll consider it as compensation for me."
"Ah-choo... Ah-choo..." Lin Luo Autumn started coughing again, her face once more flushing with an unhealthy crimson color. Ling Mo couldn't help but feel a pang of worry in his heart, fearing that she might just cough herself to death like this.
She just used up all her energy to save Shi Bin and probably made her illness worse.
So when Lin Ruanqiu coughed, Shi Bin glared at Ling Mo with a scowl.
Ling Mo secretly rolled his eyes and thought that if you weren't so dishonest, I wouldn't have had to bring you in like this, nor would it have provoked Lin Ran into taking action...
Lin Ran coughed for a while before regaining her composure, then slowly said: "It's okay, just now Shi Bin was wrong, I didn't ask clearly about the situation and took action, it was also my fault."
"You're lucky, Lin Ruanqiu was a key member of X City University's self-rescue team before, she knows the situation in school best." Shi Bin added another sentence, provoking Lin Ruanqiu to glare at him again.
Ling Mo secretly thought that Shi Bin's skills were decent, but his brain wasn't very bright. Now they were at a disadvantage, and this kind of "self-rescue team" was not intimidating at all, instead it exposed their own trump cards.
Moreover, if they still maintained contact with the self-rescue team now, Lin Luoqiu would not have ended up in this situation.
"What Shi Bin said is right, I used to be in a self-rescue team. But this self-rescue team was just a temporary gathering of some students and teachers. After discovering my special abilities, I was pulled into the so-called higher-ups. But I don't have as many ideas as they do, I just want to hold on until rescue arrives." Lin Luoqiu explained his background simply with a hint of helplessness.
It's normal for a school of this size to have an emergency response team like that. Ling Mo nodded and asked, "About how many survivors are left at X City University? How many zombies?"
Lin Ruan thought for a moment and said, "The number of students at X City University was approximately 550,000 before. Considering that some students were not on campus at the time and some escaped, there may be around 40,000 survivors and zombies left."
The number of zombies is already terrifying, but Ling Mo is very satisfied with this. The more zombies there are, the greater the possibility of giving birth to variant zombies or even advanced zombies.
"I don't know the exact number of zombies, but I estimate it's over 30,000. There are approximately over 3,000 survivors." Lin Luoqiu gave a relatively accurate number after a moment of silence.
30,000! As expected, coming to X City University was the right decision! With so many zombies, how many mutant zombies will be born inside?
Entering X City University means entering a zombie den. Although the danger is great, there are countless virus-infected gelatinous creatures!
"Then your self-rescue team has as many as three thousand people?" Although he felt it was unlikely, Ling Mo couldn't help but ask.
Lin Ran smiled and shook his head, saying: "How could that be? With more people, it would be very chaotic, and no one has the ability to control the scene. We are basically scattered all over the campus, like the self-rescue team I'm in, there are only thirty or so people. But the supplies that can be found in school are getting less and less, so I and some others came out to find a way out, didn't expect something unexpected to happen..."
As she said this, a hint of sadness flashed across her eyes, as if she didn't want to say any more.
"So you're familiar with the route too?" Ling Mo's gaze flickered for a moment, but he immediately shook his head with a bitter smile. With Lin Luo Autumn's body, it would be too difficult for her to lead the way as well.
In fact, Ling Mo had been wanting someone to lead the way for a long time. Although he could control the zombies to scout ahead, in the end, it was still him who was slowly exploring. The campus was so big, and wandering around like a headless fly was quite troublesome.
However, he hadn't expected to run into a survivor from the university so soon, and Ling Mo hadn't considered this possibility.
But at this time, although they met Lin Ruanqiu and Shi Bin, one had a bright mind but his body was not good, the other had a good body, but his brain was not bright enough...
In a certain sense, these two are indeed complementary... Ling Mo thought with some malice.
