Chapter 23
"Let\'s hear it," she said, popping a grape into her mouth.
[Kill 1,000 zombies and you\'ll be rewarded with a super city wall! This wall will be 100 meters high, indestructible, and capable of withstanding the strongest attacks from level 10 zombies and superhumans. Even an army of a million zombies couldn\'t breach it!]
"Is there a time limit?"
[No time limit, and you\'ll receive additional rewards upon completion.]
"Then of course, absolutely, definitely, certainly I\'ll accept it!"
It had been about a month since the apocalypse began.
Calculating the time, it was roughly the same point when, in her previous life, Yun Shaokai had abandoned her and she\'d ended up in the wolf\'s den.
It was about time she sought revenge on that group.
She had been thinking about them quite a lot, after all!
That night, Yun Xiaoxiao went to bed early.
Early the next morning, she drove her car down the mountain.
"By the way, do the thirteen zombies I killed earlier count towards the thousand?"
[No, they don\'t.]
Well, she shouldn\'t have gotten her hopes up!
Yun Xiaoxiao pouted and accelerated.
On the way, she encountered several wandering zombies, all of which were mercilessly crushed by her large vehicle.
[Ding! Congratulations, host has killed one zombie!]
[Ding! Congratulations, host has killed three zombies!]
[Ding! Congratulations...]
Every time she killed a zombie, the system would chime with a notification.
But there weren\'t many zombies on the highway outside the city. After driving for a while, she had only run over twenty-one.
Yun Xiaoxiao parked her car near a small supermarket by the roadside under an overpass and got out.
Looking at the familiar scene before her, her eyes gradually turned cold.
In her previous life, Yun Shaokai had originally planned to drive her and his mistress to the survivor base.
But when they passed by this place and saw a small supermarket on the roadside, he stopped.
At that time, they had been without water and food for several days and were starving.
Seeing the supermarket with no zombies around, Yun Shaokai was particularly excited.
He immediately told them all to get out of the car and go inside to gather supplies.
But almost everything inside had already been taken, leaving only inedible items like soap, laundry detergent, and such.
Yun Shaokai cursed a few times and then angrily called for them to come out.
However, as soon as they exited, two pale-faced zombies with lifeless eyes charged towards them.
Yun Shaokai reacted quickly, unhesitatingly pushing her towards the two zombies before grabbing his mistress and fleeing in the car.
Perhaps, in his heart, she had always been a burden.
He couldn\'t get rid of her during the divorce, and she had eaten his food after the apocalypse.
At that moment, it was the perfect opportunity for him to discard her.
At the same time, he could use her to block the danger, killing two birds with one stone!
She still didn\'t know how she had survived in the end.
At the time, she was terrified, her mind blank.
When she regained consciousness, the two zombies were dead, both with large holes in their foreheads.
Thinking back now, it must have been her wood-based supernatural ability that was accidentally triggered in that critical moment, killing the two zombies.
At that time, the five-year-old her, like an abandoned stray puppy, pitifully curled up in a small corner of the supermarket, silently sobbing.
After an unknown amount of time, when she was dizzy from hunger and on the verge of death, a group of people appeared.
In her hazy state, she knew she was picked up by someone, but she had no idea what they said or where they took her.
When she woke up again, she found herself locked in a small room.
There were other children locked up with her.
They were fighting over something to eat.
That something was dog food!
Recalling all of this, Yun Xiaoxiao\'s lips tightened, her eyes burning with bloodthirst.
She stored her car in her spatial inventory and walked into the small supermarket.
Just like in her previous life, all the food inside had been looted, leaving only things that didn\'t seem particularly important in the apocalypse.
But Yun Xiaoxiao didn\'t mind.
Soap, laundry detergent, liquid detergent, bleach powder, toilet cleaner, insecticide, toothbrushes, toothpaste, mosquito coils, thermos flasks, towels, mouthwash cups, cotton wadding, buckets, power strips, cutting boards, spatulas...
She collected basically everything that could be used.
After gathering everything, she found a place to sit down, just like in her previous life.
However, she wouldn\'t let herself suffer this time.
She laid out a layer of cotton wadding on the ground, covered it with a bed sheet, and then sprawled out on top of it.
Comfortable!
She didn\'t know when that group would come, so she could only wait here.
But she was also a bit worried. In this life, she had angered Yun Shaokai into the hospital, so he hadn\'t come here again.
Would her rebirth cause a butterfly effect, preventing that group from coming here?
After thinking about it without reaching a conclusion, Yun Xiaoxiao decided to stop worrying.
If they didn\'t come, even if she had to search the entire city, she would find them, and then... slaughter them!
***
Three days later, in the afternoon.
Yun Xiaoxiao was exercising in her spatial inventory when she heard the sound of a car braking outside.
She immediately became alert, quickly flashing out of her spatial inventory and sitting on the ground.
Soon after, the supermarket door was pushed open from the outside.
Several sets of heavy footsteps gradually became clear.
"Damn it, there\'s nothing to eat in here!"
"Who knows where Brother Leopard and his group went, we haven\'t seen them for so many days."
Several noisy voices rang out one after another.
"Boss, there\'s a kid here!"
Suddenly, a shrill voice sounded above Yun Xiaoxiao\'s head.
Yun Xiaoxiao looked up and saw a tall, thin man who looked like a monkey standing in front of her.
Her eyes widened, immediately putting on an innocent and pure expression.
"Uncle, are you here to save me?" she asked in a sweet voice.
With her adorable appearance and sweet voice, anyone would think she was just a harmless, cute little girl.
From the earlier conversation, Yun Xiaoxiao had already confirmed that these were most likely the same group of people who had taken her in her previous life.
Firstly, the timing matched, and secondly, they had mentioned Brother Leopard and his group.
The leader of the group that had tried to rob her earlier seemed to be called Brother Leopard, she remembered hearing his subordinates call him that.
If the two groups were together, they definitely weren\'t good people.
And the group that had harmed her in her previous life were the worst of the worst, the kind that were rotten to the core!
"Yes, uncles are here to save you," said a man with a face full of fat, the corners of his eyes crinkling as he gave a nauseating smile.
The other men also gathered around.
They looked at Yun Xiaoxiao as if she were a fresh chick, some even swallowing hard.
