Chapter 29

Just as he was about to leave, Chen Luo instructed Ma Yu:

Regardless of who it is or what excuse they give, do not open the door. Even if someone is about to die in front of you, you must not open it.

Close all the doors and windows tightly, do not stick your head out, and absolutely do not leave the house. Take responsibility for your own safety.

After the incident at the hotel cold storage, Ma Yu became fearful and nodded solemnly.

Chen Luo, Su Dazhu, and King were going out to collect crystals, leaving Ma Yu alone at home.

It was impossible to take her along as she would be a burden; her responsibility was to take care of the logistics.

It was also impossible to leave someone behind to protect her, including King.

King was a very capable assistant, and in case of danger, he might be able to turn the tide.

Chen Luo gave Ma Yu two electric batons for self-defense, which should be sufficient.

Once they left the residential area and arrived at the spot where the heavy truck was parked, Chen Luos face darkened.

The window on the right side of the trucks cabin had been shattered, and he wondered who could have done it.

The damage was extensive, indicating that someone had entered the truck, probably to search for supplies.

What a blind move! Even from outside the window, it was clear that there were no supplies inside.

The trucks cargo area had also been opened and left unclosed after they left.

Considering Chen Luo hadnt left the house for three days, it wasnt surprising that the truck had attracted attention.

Chen Luo felt sorry for King and didnt bother letting him out to guard the vehicleit wasnt worth it.

Two zombies lunged at him.

Chen Luo swiftly kicked them away, sending the zombies flying.

What the hell, why are you checking the truck? Whats it to you?

Zombies: ???

Grumbling and cursing, Chen Luo got into the heavy truck, determined to find out who was responsible for the damage.

He inspected the truck and fortunately, apart from the broken window, everything seemed fine.

Chen Luo drove the truck onto a sparsely populated street nearby. If he could ram through using the truck, he would; otherwise, he and Su Dazhu would get out and kill the zombies.

In just over an hour, Chen Luo collected over three hundred crystals.

While killing zombies, Chen Luo deliberately moved closer to the residential area where Mi Ling and Mi Li lived.

After collecting over five hundred crystals, Su Dazhu was panting heavily. They took a short break before Chen Luo entered Mi Lis residential area.

It was just past 6 oclock in the evening, the sky was already slightly dark.

Before the apocalypse, Chen Luo had specifically gathered information about Mi Ling and Mi Li, not only knowing their general preferences but also their specific address.

Before the apocalypse, Chen Luo had wanted to buy a cat as a companion, but he wasnt sure if it would turn into a zombie afterward. He didnt want to risk being bitten by a cat he had brought home, so he abandoned the idea.

Chen Luo thought to himself, If youre good-looking, Ill take you back with me.

But if youre not good-looking well.

King held the cat by its scruff and trotted over, wearing an expression of accomplishment.

Chen Luo observed the cat and was pleasantly surprised.

Upon closer inspection, the cat was a silver gradient color, measuring over twenty centimeters in length, with sky-blue eyes.

Its fur was smooth and free from any stray hairs.

Overall, it had an exceptionally high level of cuteness, like a little fairy among cats.

Of course, it could also be a male cat.

The cat struggled in Kings grip, but it couldnt break free.

Chen Luo was about to caress its fluffy little head when he suddenly heard a voice.

Meow meow meow, make this stupid dog let go of me!

Chen Luos pupils contracted as he stared at the cat in astonishment.

The voice didnt come from the surroundings but appeared directly in his mind.

This ability was not unfamiliar to Chen Luo. Powerful supernatural abilities allowed one to communicate with others using their mind, without the need for spoken words.

The Thunderbolt King was a dog who possessed the ability to control electricity. Why couldnt other cats and dogs possess supernatural abilities?

The silver gradient cat before him clearly had the power of telepathic communication. It was intelligent and knew that Chen Luo was in charge, hence pleading with him to release it from Kings grasp.

Chen Luos eyes gleamed with excitement. What an unexpected discovery!

Stick with me, and youll have plenty of big fish and meat every meal.

Chen Luo scolded the Thunderbolt King, saying, King, how could you be so rude? Release the cat immediately.

Despite his words, Chen Luo firmly held onto the cats body, afraid that it might run away.

King, feeling guilty all over, nodded in acknowledgment. Yes, it was his fault.

The cat didnt struggle when it was in Chen Luos hands. It looked up at him with its wide sky-blue eyes, and at the same time, Chen Luo heard a voice in his mind.

I didnt provoke or do anything to it. This dog just decided to bite me for no reason. How annoying!

Chen Luo agreed, Yes, its so annoying.

Su Dazhu scratched his head, looking at Chen Luo strangely. Why did it seem like his brother was having a conversation with a cat?

The cat used its abilities again, seemingly sensing something.

Do you have any small dried fish? I have a feeling that you do.
