Doomsday Carnival: The Little Monster Only Has a Seven-Second Memory

As soon as Rona entered, the zombies on the second floor heard the noise and swayed down.

Low-level zombies are slow-moving and unresponsive, posing no challenge to her.

Lorna grabbed a fishing knife from the store, walked over and cut off the zombie's head, then plunged it into the skull and pried it open.

A red heteronucleus popped out.

Rona caught it crisply and put it into the small pouch at her waist. "It seems like there are very few wood-type alien cores? You might not find one even after killing a thousand zombies."

She currently has sixteen heteronuclei in her small bag, with zero wood-type heteronuclei.

Wu Zhe and Gao Lei's voices came from the bracelet, but neither of them had them.

Huo Ling only has one.

Lin Shuangshuang had already started using the new bracelet. She heard what her teammates were saying, looked down at her own alien core, and realized she didn't have any out of thirty. "Me neither." Moreover, her pockets were full of one-star alien cores.

It seems that the two-star zombies haven't multiplied in large numbers yet.

Lorna noticed that the fishing tackle shop had a very low level of pollution and a fairly complete selection of items. She wasn't sure what she could take and what she couldn't.

Just call in more people.

"Come on over, everyone. The shop's front door is intact, and there's only one zombie inside. It must be the shop owner. Everything is very clean."

She couldn't take all these supplies with her by herself.

Everyone said it was good.

So we met up here.

The small fishing tackle shop is fully equipped with all kinds of fishing gear.

Wu Zhe wandered around the store, "It really is true, these things are basically pollution-free."

Gao Lei took a liking to the knife, saying, "A multi-functional knife is useful; it's sharp and durable. We need a small, portable multi-functional knife like this when we go out."

It can be used to process various things, such as slaughtering prey and cutting ropes.

Lorna pointed at the axes and machetes, "It's outrageous that a fishing tackle shop would have these things. Those big buckets are fine, though."

Huo Ling looked around, took a picture of each item, and sent it to the group chat, tagging Zhao Pingsheng and Zhang Dapeng, asking them what items were useful. "It's not outrageous. Some fishing tackle shops sell large tools for clearing vegetation on the shore or breaking ice, so it's not surprising to see axes and machetes."

He indicated that these could all be taken away.

Also, scissors, wire cutters, bolt cutters—the more tools the better.

Nylon rope and fishing line: the former can be used to build shelters, set traps, climb, and tie supplies, while the latter has a wider range of uses, such as sewing clothes and equipment, making bowstrings, fishing, and even as surgical sutures.

Wu Zhe couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Brother Huo, how do you know everything?"

Lorna was speechless. "Tsk, people really do need to read more books and newspapers."

Gao Lei worked silently, using nylon ropes to sort and bundle the supplies.

As for Lin Shuangshuang.

She was very clever. While they were chatting, she went upstairs to check the situation. The second floor was a small warehouse. The shop was not big, so the warehouse had to be set up upstairs, together with the living area.

50/50.

Lin Shuangshuang's pink backpack is back online. She has already handed in yesterday's supplies, and now the backpack is empty, so she can repack it.

Since the boss turned into a zombie, he spent more time upstairs.

Most of his personal belongings were contaminated and unusable, but a few things were still intact, such as the food in the cupboard.

大米还有半袋，估算有个十斤左右，豆豉鲮鱼还有十盒（227g/盒）、榨菜五小袋（70g/袋）、未开封的香菇肉酱一瓶（200g/瓶）、土蜂蜜两罐（500g/罐）、香料八角两袋（55g/袋）。

Lin Shuangshuang packed these things into her backpack and then went to check out the warehouse.

The door had just opened.

A female zombie darted out, reeking of foul odor and covered in dense, red rashes, her skin resembling that of a toad.

Lin Shuangshuang instinctively kicked her away, and the zombie crashed into the warehouse wall. It tried to struggle, but the next second, the steel pipe pierced its head.

There was no sound at all.

"What's wrong? What's wrong?!"

Wu Zhe's voice came from downstairs, as if he was startled by the noise upstairs.

Lorna's voice followed closely behind, "Shuangshuang? Are you alright?!"

Huo Ling had already appeared on the second floor. He strode over, pulled Lin Shuangshuang aside, and then looked at the female zombie covered in red rashes.

"You stand there."

Huo Ling's voice was cold and hard. As he spoke, he casually tore off a clean curtain, wrapped the female zombie in it, and placed it to the side.

There were quite a few things in the small warehouse.

"There's still a zombie upstairs, but Lin Shuangshuang just dealt with it. The danger is over. There's still some stock in the warehouse on the second floor. One of you come up and help carry it."

Lin Shuangshuang watched him handle these matters swiftly and decisively, without even blinking. She stared straight at him and said, "You were worried about me."

Her tone was very confident.

Huo Ling, with a long face, said coldly, "It's just my imagination. I didn't."

Lin Shuangshuang couldn't help but smile, very happy, "You have it."

Huo Ling said, "No."

Lin Shuangshuang said, "Yes!"

Yes, it is.

He was still worried about her!

Huo Ling laughed angrily, too lazy to pay attention to her, "Make way, I'm moving my things."

Lin Shuangshuang was very helpful, saying, "I can help too."

Huo Ling stopped talking to her.

Lin Shuangshuang also worked very hard.

This fishing tackle shop has made a considerable profit, as they've managed to put all sorts of things to good use.

When Zhao Pingsheng and Zhang Dapeng received the news, they immediately video-called, both of them incredibly excited, insisting on bringing it back.

"Lead weights are valuable stuff, bring back as many as you can!! You know, you can melt them down to make bullet heads, right??"

"You all know what alcohol and disinfectant are used for, bring them all back. Don't forget the pliers, the pliers for removing fishhooks can also be used for surgery."

"You must have super glue too, right? Screws, nuts, adapters—bring back all those odds and ends! I need them!"

"I'll have Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu pick you up and help transport some back first."

It's rare to find a store with low pollution, so we have to take advantage of it.

The robotic puppy is on its way.

Wu Zhe was exhausted. He was busy packing things in the store, putting all the small items into large bags and moving the larger items together first.

"Help! This is exhausting! When will we ever finish moving all this stuff?"

He was about to break down.

As Lorna picked up the items, she sighed, "This is terrible! Making me do this kind of work is worse than fighting zombies. Why don't we have spatial abilities? This doesn't make sense; they're in novels!"

Gao Lei carried the heaviest items downstairs without complaining, only reminding him, "Aren't these things usually standard equipment for the main character?"

Rona was exhausted. "Aren't we the cream of the crop?! Aren't we powerful enough?! I really think we should be given a space-based ability..."
