Chapter 110: Black Skull

Lin Chen and Xia Nuan leaned on the head of the bed, sleeping soundly until the sky was almost bright. Waking up again,

sunlight had already shone into the room through the window, the wind and snow outside had stopped, but the air still carried a bone-chilling cold. Lin Chen stretched,

stood up and walked to the window, pushed open the window and looked out—the ice sculptures in the courtyard were still there,

just covered with a thin layer of snow, the street in the distance was empty, unable to see a single person.

"Awake?

I'll go cook something to eat.

" Xia Nuan also woke up, rubbing her eyes and saying. Lin Chen nodded, turned and began to organize the weapons in the room,

checking the Purple Lightning Purification Gun and M416 rifle, ensuring they could be used at any time.

Xia Nuan walked into the kitchen, took out compressed biscuits and canned food from the Infinite Space, heated them and brought them to the living room.

Just as the two sat down to prepare to eat,

the villa's communicator suddenly rang—this was installed by Lin Chen earlier,

used to receive signals from nearby survivors. He pressed the answer button,

and a hurried voice came from inside: "Hello? Is anyone there? We are in the supermarket in the Chengxi area, surrounded by a group of mutated cockroaches, please save us!"

Lin Chen frowned and asked the communicator: "How many people are you? Are there many mutated cockroaches?

" "We have five people, all ordinary survivors, there are at least a hundred mutated cockroaches,

their shells are too hard, our weapons can't penetrate!" The other party's voice carried a crying tone, "Please come quickly, it will be too late!"

Xia Nuan looked at Lin Chen and said in a low voice: "Should we go? What if there is danger?" Lin Chen thought for a moment and asked the system: "System, detect the situation in the Chengxi supermarket, what is the weakness of the mutated cockroaches?" 【Detected 120 mutated cockroaches in the Chengxi supermarket, shells are hard, weakness is the soft part of the abdomen, no other dangerous targets in the current area】 the system replied.

"Let's go, go take a look." Lin Chen picked up his weapon, "Over a hundred mutated cockroaches, we should be able to solve it, and they are all ordinary survivors,

if we don't save them, they definitely won't survive." Xia Nuan nodded, followed Lin Chen out of the villa, got into the armored vehicle, and drove toward the direction of the Chengxi supermarket.

The armored vehicle drove on the snow for over twenty minutes and finally arrived at the Chengxi supermarket.

A few mutated cockroach corpses were scattered at the supermarket entrance, and fighting sounds and screams came from inside.

Lin Chen pushed open the car door, picked up the Purple Lightning Purification Gun, and shouted into the supermarket: "We're here! You guys hide in the back!"

The survivors in the supermarket heard the sound and hurriedly hid behind the shelves in the back.

Lin Chen and Xia Nuan rushed into the supermarket, seeing over a hundred mutated cockroaches scurrying around;

their shells were black, the size of an adult's fist, crawling toward the survivors. Lin Chen mobilized his Absolute Zero ability,

condensed an ice spike, and shot it at the abdomen of a mutated cockroach. The ice spike instantly pierced the abdomen, the mutated cockroach twitched a few times, and soon didn't move.

"Their weakness is the abdomen! Attack the abdomen!" Lin Chen shouted to Xia Nuan. Xia Nuan nodded,

picked up the sniper rifle, aimed at the abdomen of a mutated cockroach and fired. The bullet hit the abdomen, and the mutated cockroach fell to the ground. The two cooperated tacitly; Lin Chen used ice spikes to attack, Xia Nuan used the sniper rifle to aim accurately, and the mutated cockroaches fell one after another.

The survivors hiding behind the shelves also gathered courage, picked up weapons and attacked the abdomens of the mutated cockroaches.

Half an hour later, the last mutated cockroach was pierced in the abdomen by Lin Chen's ice spike, and the supermarket finally returned to calm. The survivors walked out,

thanking Lin Chen and Xia Nuan repeatedly: "Thank you! If it weren't for you, we would definitely be dead!"

Lin Chen waved his hand: "No need to thank, as long as you guys are fine. It's not safe here,

you guys follow us back to the Vault of Heaven Villa, there is defense there, safe for now." The survivors nodded one after another, followed Lin Chen and Xia Nuan out of the supermarket, and got into the armored vehicle. The armored vehicle's space was limited, only able to seat five people; Lin Chen let Xia Nuan and three survivors sit in the car, and he walked back with the other two survivors.

Walking on the way back, a survivor said to Lin Chen: "We encountered a group of people wearing black clothes in other places before,

they held special weapons, killed many survivors, and also robbed our food,

have you encountered them?" Lin Chen's heart moved, and he asked: "Did their clothes have any logo? For example, a black skull?"

The survivor nodded: "Yes! It's a black skull! They looked very fierce,

we ran away as soon as we saw them, don't know where they are now." Lin Chen frowned,

guessing in his heart—these people should also be "X"s subordinates, it seems "X"s power is even greater than he imagined.

Returning to the Vault of Heaven Villa, Lin Chen arranged for the survivors to stay in the rooms on the first floor,

and distributed food and water to them. An older survivor said to Lin Chen: "We know a place with a lot of supplies, didn't dare to go before because of mutated cockroaches,

now that you helped us solve the cockroaches, we can take you to get the supplies." Lin Chen's eyes lit up: "Really? Where?"

The older survivor said: "In the warehouse in the North City area, there are a lot of compressed biscuits,

canned food, and some medical supplies, enough for us to use for a long time." Lin Chen nodded: "Alright, we'll go together tomorrow, just in time for our medical supplies to be running out."

At night, Lin Chen and Xia Nuan sat in the living room and asked the system: "System, detect the situation in the North City warehouse, is there any danger?" 【Detected no dangerous targets in the North City warehouse, supplies are sufficient, suitable for going to collect】 the system replied. Lin Chen breathed a sigh of relief and said to Xia Nuan: "It seems we can successfully get the supplies tomorrow; with these supplies, we and the survivors can be at ease for a while." Xia Nuan nodded with a smile, stood up to pour a glass of hot water for Lin Chen, and the two sat in the living room, chatting about tomorrow's plan, until very late before returning to their rooms to rest. ===== CHAPTER 111 =====
