After getting ready, the group prepared to leave.

As soon as Luo Ning stepped outside, he felt the heat.

The weather is almost like summer before the apocalypse; it's already September, August. But she knows it's not the hottest time yet.

The weather now is so much more comfortable than it will be in the future.

As soon as she got on the train, Luo Ning turned on the air conditioning. It was hot and people were easily tired, so she put a lot of drinks and ice cream in the small refrigerator in the carriage.

The digital group opened a box and started licking an ice cream cone. Luo Ning wanted some too, but with Xiao Jie nearby, she didn't dare to be so presumptuous.

I brought back the candied apples feeling dejected, but thankfully they were ice-cold.

It was just ice cream; she enjoyed it slowly in her room when she got back that night.

Although she could eat whatever she wanted, seeing Xiao Jie standing next to her hesitant to speak, she decided to be considerate of his feelings. She was afraid that if he kept glancing this way, they might get into a car accident soon.

Seeing that she didn't speak, Xiao Jie quietly breathed a sigh of relief. He later learned how severely her body was depleted.

She looks so capable on the outside, but her body is extremely weak, and she herself doesn't seem to care.

The zombies outside are evolving very quickly; there are many fourth-tier, and even some fifth-tier and sixth-tier ones.

However, what Luo Ning was most worried about was not the zombies, but the mutated birds circling in the air and the mutated animals following behind the car.

This RV system also has a bug: it can block out human scents so that zombies can't smell them.

However, this has no effect on mutant animals. Mutant animals can not only smell human scents, but they are also conscious and can see cars. Moving cars will become their prey.

Luo Ning wasn't too worried. This wasn't the most difficult time yet, and these mutated animals wouldn't easily attack people.

Her heavy truck is 12 meters long, a large target, and unless it is extremely hungry, they will not dare to attack it easily.

But it should be soon. Nowadays, mutated animals are so hungry that they become so clever that they will even eat low-level zombies.

However, when they become extremely thirsty, they will frantically search for water. In a state of extreme thirst, they may go berserk and lose all rationality.

Luo Ning took a bite of the apple; she had explored almost the entirety of Ningcheng during this period.

She had collected almost all the usable supplies, and she decided that after delivering this batch of takeout, she would not go out again.

People tend to be lazy when it's hot, so she wanted to stay home to escape the heat.

Anyway, 123 and the others can earn crystal cores now, and she doesn't lack crystal cores.

People aren't really lacking in supplies right now, but business isn't doing very well. Things should get much better after the New Year.

So Luo Ning isn't worried about the current poor business; the official grain reserves are still plentiful, and they'll wait until there's a shortage later.

In order to reduce food consumption, they would develop all kinds of energy bars and energy liquids. Although they wouldn't starve people, they really didn't taste very good.

Moreover, these things are in limited supply, and there are too many survivors. Even if they don't starve to death, they are not far from starving to death.

In a few years, resources will become even scarcer, and many people, even with points and crystals, won't know where to buy them.

She'll believe her voice isn't bad by then.

Before that, all she needs to do is stockpile enough supplies and improve her abilities. Otherwise, if so many of her supplies are stolen, who will she cry to?

Luo Ning had traveled this road many times before, and each time it had gone smoothly without any danger.

Luo Ning felt someone was following him even though the store was only half open today.

After the upgrade to 123, her vision range is now 1000 meters. Within 1000 meters, she did not find anything unusual.

But her intuition was right, so she took out a drone and launched it.

Soon, Luo Ning collided head-on with a drone in the air, and a little further back, there were three armored vehicles following on the ground.

It was an official vehicle, but Luo Ning was certain those people weren't official.

She exchanged a glance with the drone in the air, and seeing that it didn't react, she didn't move either, continuing to control the drone to monitor it.

She wasn't sure if those people were spying on her or just happened to be going the same way, but it was better to be careful.

This road leads to the Xuanwu Base, and almost everyone at the Xuanwu Base knows her, assuming the people behind her don't have any ill intentions.

They certainly don't care about her drone.

Just as she was about to reach the Xuanwu Base, those people finally stopped following her and took a detour around the Xuanwu Base.

Was Luo Ning's retrieval of the drone really just a coincidence?

There are many private bases near the Xuanwu base, and they may be private bases.

"Is there a problem?" Xiao Jie asked.

"I'm not sure, but it's better to be safe than sorry," Luo Ning replied.

Upon entering the Xuanwu Base, there were five or six people waiting first, with Ji Zhoubai at the very front. There weren't many people, but dozens of people surrounded him from behind.

Every time Luo Ning comes, he sees this scene: few people buy things, but many people look.

Luo Ning showed no impatience whatsoever. The people behind her were all potential customers, but they were still observing, or rather, people's understanding of the apocalypse was not yet profound.

It's only been a few months since the apocalypse began. Who here doesn't have some supplies? With the government's subsidies, they can barely make ends meet if they're careful. But later on, even if they have crystal cores, they won't be able to find anywhere to buy supplies.

"Here it comes, here it comes."

People cheered as soon as they saw Luo Ning's car. Even though they didn't have any crystal cores to buy, it didn't stop them from watching what others had bought.

Dean Ji, in particular, always buys a lot of delicious food. They can't afford it, but they can at least smell it.

With their meager food reserves, how could they possibly make such delicious and visually appealing food?

Xiao Jie parked the car directly at the gate, and Ji Zhoubai brought over the people who had bought things.

The group walked proudly past the crowd's gaze. The Xuanwu Base was so large, with so many people, yet only a few of them could afford the supplies.

What does this mean? It means they have no shortage of crystal cores and are very powerful.

"Hurry up, can you guys always be a little more on time?"

Ji Zhoubai knocked anxiously on Luo Ning's car door. Couldn't this guy have come earlier?

It's only a two-hour drive, but she always arrives around 1 or 2 pm. Don't think he doesn't know; it's just that heartless girl Luo Ning can't get up.

It's the apocalypse, everyone's busy every day, just trying to earn a few more crystal cores.

Only Luo Ning can sleep until noon every day, and someone will prepare meals for him.

Ji Zhoubai was filled with envy, jealousy, and hatred!

What difference would it make if he lived like this for two more days?

God knows, it's been several months since the apocalypse, and he hasn't had a single full night's sleep. The number of wounded is increasing, and there's no way to save them all.

I wonder when he'll be able to retire and live a life like Luo Ning's for a couple of days.

Luo Ning opened the car door and got out, retorting without any politeness, "You're always rushing me, rushing me to my death! Who told you to wait so early? I didn't say I wanted to come early."
