Apocalypse: The Primordial Pearl Recognizes Its Master, Starting with Infinite Space

Wang Laoda and his group turned to look at the newcomers.

The figure walked leisurely, as if on a picnic.

The group of people were stunned for a moment.

The person who arrived was only wearing a simple winter coat, the fabric of which looked thin and light, not at all like someone who could survive in such extreme cold weather.

Even more strangely, he had a faint smile on his face, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, as if he were strolling in his own backyard.

He was accompanied by a giant panda.

It was round and plump, with bright fur, and was walking with its toes pointing inwards, looking around.

The person who came was, of course, Lin Chen.

After arriving in the west of the city, he and Yuanzai asked around among several people before finally finding this shelter hidden underground.

Wang Laoda and his group exchanged glances subconsciously.

Yesterday's rumor was that someone was chasing a mutated giant panda that was suspected to be a fourth-tier creature... Could it be this one?

And that person who chased the giant panda all over the city actually came knocking on our door today?

"This is indeed the Silent Night Sanctuary," Boss Wang said, forcing himself to sound calm. "What...is there for you?"

Lin Chen's gaze swept over the three men, finally settling on Boss Wang.

"I'm looking for the leader of your shelter... Gu Yan."

The tall, thin man stared at him warily: "Who are you? What do you want with our Lord Gu?"

He felt that this person had come with ill intentions, and even dared to call Lord Gu by his name!

Lin Chen glanced at him.

His gaze was indifferent, as if he were looking at something insignificant.

"What do you want with him?" Lin Chen's smile widened slightly. "It's not something a nobody like you would know."

The tall, thin man was instantly choked, his face turning red. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.

Old Wang quietly tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to keep quiet.

This person can chase a fourth-tier mutated beast all over the city, can stroll leisurely in the extreme cold wearing such thin clothes, and even dares to find this place alone... They can't afford to mess with this kind of person!

Lin Chen didn't waste any more words.

His gaze slowly swept across the three faces before he activated his mind suggestion ability.

The three of them were only slightly dazed for a moment before their eyes regained their clarity.

But the wariness and hostility in his eyes had completely disappeared.

"Come with me." Boss Wang nodded. "I'll take you to Lord Gu."

He turned and walked deeper into the underground parking garage.

The tall, thin man and another companion naturally followed on either side, as if they had come to guide Lin Chen.

The group entered the underground parking garage.

This is a shelter converted from an underground parking lot.

Fires of all sizes were scattered everywhere, their dim light illuminating numb faces.

Many survivors, men and women, stood or sat around each fire, and everyone was disheveled and dirty.

Since the blood rain began, these people have not even had enough water to drink, let alone wash or bathe.

In the corner, someone was curled up, barely alive, with only a thin layer of cardboard beneath them.

Everyone's eyes were vacant; they didn't even have the energy to look up at the man and bear who had just arrived.

Lin Chen and Yuanzai followed behind the group, calmly watching everything unfold.

The group continued downwards, arriving at the entrance to the next level.

A thin, weasel-faced man leaned against the doorframe, a cigarette butt in his hand, squinting at the people coming and going.

When he saw Boss Wang and his group, he frowned, stubbed out his cigarette, and walked over in a few steps.

"Wang Dazhi, what are you doing?" His voice was sharp and condescending. "This floor is not a place where you can move in with your meager rent."

Wang Dazhi immediately put on a smile, and his waist was bent at a ninety-degree angle.

"Captain Zhang, this young man is here to see City Lord Gu; he has important business to discuss."

Captain Zhang turned his gaze to Lin Chen, looked him up and down, and his eyes were scrutinizing.

But when he saw the round panda next to Lin Chen, his eyelids twitched, and the arrogance on his face lessened a bit.

"Brother," his tone softened, "what business do you have with Lord Gu? I can inform him for you."

Lin Chen looked at him.

An F-level ability user. In this apocalypse, they are indeed a bit stronger than ordinary people, but only a bit stronger.

He didn't bother with any more words and activated his superpowers again.

If he wasn't worried about scaring away that coward Gu Yan again, he would have already barged in.

Captain Zhang was stunned for a moment.

Immediately, a smile, ten times more obsequious than Wang Dazhi's, appeared on that pointed, monkey-faced man.

"Oh dear, young brother, since you've come to see City Lord Gu, how can you just stand here!"

He eagerly stepped aside to make way, "Come, come, follow me, I'll show you the way, I know this place well!"

Lin Chen nodded slightly and followed.

As for Wang Dazhi and the others, they stayed where they were.

That's the end of their hierarchy.

With Captain Zhang leading the way, the rest of the journey went much more smoothly.

We soon arrived at the next floor, where the situation was significantly better than the previous one.

Most of the residents here are low-level ability users, at least they can get enough to eat, and their complexions have improved a lot.

Moreover, deeper underground, more fires were lit, and the temperature was even warmer.

Captain Zhang led Lin Chen down the road with practiced ease. Most of the guards of the same rank along the way just glanced at his face and then ignored him.

They all stared wide-eyed at Yuanzai next to Lin Chen.

Occasionally, someone would try to ask a question, but Captain Zhang would shut them down with a "distinguished guest of Lord Gu," and they would shrink back and move aside.

Lin Chen swaggered along behind Captain Zhang, heading towards the deepest part of the area.

Before long, the two arrived near a basement.

The guards here are noticeably more numerous, standing ramrod straight with wary eyes.

Lin Chen glanced at them and saw that the lowest level was D.

This is the core area of ​​the shelter.

Captain Zhang stopped in his tracks.

He was just a small leader responsible for collecting supplies from ordinary people; getting this far was already his limit.

He wasn't qualified to go any further.

As soon as the two approached, a guard strode up to them, looking at Lin Chen with some wariness.

Especially the giant panda next to him, looking around curiously.

"Zhang the Rat!" he shouted sternly, "What are you doing here?"

Zhang Laoshu bowed and scraped, a fawning smile on his face: "Brother Huang, this gentleman is here to see Lord Gu."

Lin Chen looked at the guards opposite him and activated his supernatural ability again: "Is Gu Yan here?"

The guard was stunned for a moment.

Immediately, the wariness and arrogance on his face vanished, replaced by respect and obedience.

"Yes, they are," he said calmly. "Lord Gu and several other commanders are discussing matters inside."

Lin Chen nodded.

"lead the way."

The guard immediately stepped aside and led the way.

Yuanzai followed Lin Chen, walking with his toes pointing inward, looking around.

It doesn't quite understand what this human is doing.

But it had a vague feeling that something good was about to happen.
