207 The Exhibition Center
It was another sunny day.
The group exercise on Eastlake Island started early in the morning.
Wang Ran led all the girls and started a large-scale vegetable planting.
Some of the greenery that had been left behind had been dug out, leaving a lot of space for planting vegetables.
Perhaps it was the tomatoes and cucumbers that gave them strength, but the girls worked especially hard.
Even Xiao Jin and the gorilla were helping to dig.
Naturally, Wang Ran was able to skive at the side.
“Shiyao, isn’t the variety of vegetables a little too monotonous?
“Can other crops be cultivated?” Wang Ran asked Liu Shiyao.
Liu Shiyao had rolled up her trousers and was planting seedlings on the soil while barefooted. When Wang Ran leaned over and exhaled, her body almost went soft, and she sat on the soil.
“You have to get the other crops first before I learn whether I can cultivate them!”
Liu Shiyao rolled her eyes.
As the boss of the camp, he was not working properly.
It was bad enough that he was slacking off, but he even came to disturb her, hmph…
“Where am I supposed to get that…” Wang Ran muttered.
Previously, he had gotten these seeds and fruit seedlings from the agricultural department in a college, and that place had long since been emptied.
As for the other places…
The exhibition center!
Wang Ran suddenly thought of the place where he had died once.
Before the apocalypse, the exhibition center happened to be holding an agricultural product exhibition.
There was definitely no lack of seeds inside.
There might even be a large amount of food.
It seemed like a trip was in order.
It would be best if he could find the white-haired man. If he couldn’t find him, he would just treat it as a supply run.
“Everyone, work hard!
“I’m going out to find some seeds.”
Wang Ran dusted off the dirt on his hands, even though there was not much dirt on them.
“Xiaoyu, you’ll come with me this time.
“We can move faster if there are fewer people.”
Wang Ran had no intention of flying the helicopter over.
He might meet the white-haired man this time. He was afraid of alerting the enemy with a helicopter.
“Why don’t you bring me along too?
“I shoot well. If anything happens, I’ll be able to provide timely assistance.”
Lu Shuangshuang volunteered and raised her hand.
She was constantly trying to find a sense of presence and value. Otherwise, she would be too ashamed to continue staying here.
“Alright, then you can be the driver and coolie.”
Wang Ran nodded.
He couldn’t bear to order the other girls around, but he didn’t feel any pressure ordering Lu Shuangshuang around.
The three of them got into the armored Hummer and drove toward the exhibition center.
Lu Shuangshuang had no choice but to drive with a red face.
This was too much!
Wang Ran and Su Xiaoyu were actually in the back seat…
If it wasn’t for the fact that Lu Shuangshuang had developed a strong heart these past few days, she might have crashed many times…
In a lounge in the exhibition center.
A zombie with golden eyes was holding a human hand and gnawing on it like a chicken feet.
A bald man was sitting opposite him.
“Brother Lee, business has been pretty good these past two days, right?
“Can you give me more food?”
The bald man didn’t seem to be afraid of the golden-eyed zombie at all.
“Alright, take one bag of peanuts and two bags of rice.
“You’re smart. Fortunately, I didn’t eat you.”
The golden-eyed zombie let out a burp.
At that time, he was occupying the exhibition center when he met the bald man who was looking for supplies.
He was planning to eat the man.
However, the man’s words made him change his mind.
In order to survive, the bald man had proposed a cooperation.
After following his suggestion, the golden-eyed zombie ordered all the zombies under his command to stay somewhere in the exhibition center, making the exhibition center look like it was deserted.
When someone came, they would directly launch a sneak attack and eat those unlucky people.
The bald man’s role was to wander around the exhibition center and let others see a supposedly friendly human face.
Usually, zombies wouldn’t be very strong in places with human activity. Otherwise, this person definitely wouldn’t have lived that long.
By using this method, the bald man had already attracted dozens of unfortunate souls to the golden-eyed zombie, allowing it to eat happily.
The man had also gotten quite a lot of food from the Golden-eyed zombie.
Sometimes, when he tricked female survivors into coming in, he could have some fun first.
It was a win-win situation.
“Brother Lee, the next time there are female survivors, can you let me play with them for a few more days?
“I’ll find a few more men for you to eat,” the man suggested.
“That won’t do!
“Men’s feet are not tender and not tasty.
“If you catch a woman, I’ll let you have fun for one night at most. You can eat the next day. Is that enough?”
The zombie glared at him.
“Sure, thank you, Brother Lee!”
The man nodded.
One night was better than none.
It was time for work again.
He wondered how many unlucky people would be tricked into coming in today.
“Brother Lee, I’m off to get you more food!”
The man carried a bag of peanuts and walked out of the exhibition center.
“Brother Lee… Hehe…
“Wait until my strength surpasses yours, then I’ll let you know who’s the real deal.”
The man muttered in his heart as he carried the peanuts to the entrance of the exhibition center.
He was only a rank-two Awakened One, so it would be difficult for him to kill the golden-eyed zombie.
However, he had already started to eat zombie meat in secret, and his power had been increasing rapidly.
He estimated that in less than a month, he may end up as a rank-four Awakened One.
At that time, he could free himself.
The man stood in the square at the entrance of the exhibition center and deliberately scattered the peanuts all over the ground. Then he squatted down and picked them up.
This was his usual trick, and also a reasonable excuse to stay at the door for a long time.
Previously, many people would come up to him and ask him questions when they saw him picking peanuts.
The man would tell them that there was a lot of food inside and that he would come a few times a day to renew his stocks.
Once those people believed the man and lowered their guard, what awaited them would be the bloody mouth of the golden-eyed zombie.
Just as the man was picking up the peanuts, a few figures appeared not far away.
The man smiled. Business was here!
From their figures, they seemed to be a few strong men.
There were no women, but strong men were meaty. The golden-eyed zombie would reward itself with something when it was happy.
Just as he was feeling smug, he suddenly felt that something was wrong.
Not far away, the man who was leading the group…
He had ridiculously long claws!
His eyes seemed to be glowing red…
“F*ck! It’s a mutant zombie!”
The man shivered in fear. He immediately left the peanuts behind and fled back to the exhibition center.
He had never seen a red-eyed zombie before, but he had a vague feeling that the zombie leader was much more powerful than the golden-eyed zombie that he had been working with.
What was such a powerful guy doing here?
Looking for territory? Finding someone to chat with?
He didn’t have time to think about it. The man quickly found a place to hide in the exhibition center.
