The destructive aura of war made the green beetles feel like they were in big trouble. Countless green beetles were rushing around in the sky, looking very anxious.
He noticed a particularly large figure at first glance. It was so close that he could not see it with his naked eyes. He could only see its afterimage.
He had the urge to turn around and go back.
Fortunately, the gigantic creature had already gone mad from the noise in the distance. It did not care that a group of food walking right under its nose was an affront to its dignity.
Luo Yuan held the handle of his knife tightly in his right hand. He was on high alert as he ran towards the underground parking lot. The parking lot was located at the entrance of Jingyue District. It was only a few hundred meters away, but it seemed like a long way.
Wang Shishi was able to keep up with them at first, but as they sped up, it became harder for her to keep up. Her footsteps became heavier and her face turned pale. After all, she was still underage and a little girl who could be blown away by the wind. Compared to an adult, whether it was speed or endurance, she was far behind.
However, she still gritted her teeth and kept up with him without making a sound.
After running for about two minutes, they finally arrived at the underground parking lot. The parking lot was full of cars. These cars were now covered in dust, as if they had been abandoned by their owners. Luo Yuan looked around and killed a few green beetles like he was chopping vegetables. Everyone finally heaved a sigh of relief. They sat down on the dusty ground without a care for their image, panting heavily.
Apart from Luo Yuan and the other two, there was also a young couple. They were obviously in love. As soon as they sat down, they hugged each other and comforted each other. The other two were a middle-aged man with a big belly and a man with glasses.
"My name is Chen Guo Hua. How should I address you, my friend?" the middle-aged man asked as he moved closer to Luo Yuan.
"My surname is Luo."
The middle-aged man did not care about Luo Yuan's indifference. He continued, "Brother Luo, have you practiced before? You're so good. If I had known this day would come, I would have trained harder. "
"Yes." Luo Yuan smiled and did not say anything.
"Sigh, I wonder what will happen in the future. After this war, Donghu City will be ruined, "Chen Guo Hua sighed.
"The country will rebuild, right?" Huang Jiahui said in disbelief.
"Hehe, rebuild? With the current conditions, do you know how much resources it will take to rebuild it? I think the biggest possibility is a mass relocation! "Chen Guo Hua said with a face full of confidence.
Luo Yuan was also moved. Oil had been classified as an important strategic resource, and there was a shortage of electricity and transportation. Rebuilding a city was a huge project.
Chen Guo Hua showed a hint of pride. "I think the food will only get more and more expensive. Without money, we can only starve to death! By the way, can I see your saber? "
Suddenly, Luo Yuan looked at him and rejected, "No."
The middle-aged man did not expect Luo Yuan to reject him so quickly. His face stiffened, but he quickly smiled confidently and said, "Don't reject me so quickly. Maybe I can give you a good price to buy this knife. It will be enough for you to survive somewhere else. I'm interested in this saber. "
Luo Yuan looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot.
"What's wrong?" The middle-aged man was puzzled.
"Nothing? How much can you offer? "Luo Yuan, who had been suppressed for a few days, suddenly became interested.
The middle-aged man's spirit was lifted. Why did he waste so much time and effort to get close to him? It was all because he wanted to buy this knife. He had seen how sharp this knife was when it cut down the green beetles. It was definitely a treasure.
There was no sense of security without a weapon to protect oneself. Relying on the Heavens, the Earth, and the police was all useless. In the end, he still had to rely on himself. Of course, it would be best if it was a rifle, but he did not dare ask. He thought that the rifle was definitely not for sale. It would be more reliable to buy a saber.
He pondered for a long time, estimated the price, and said in a heroic manner, "Five hundred thousand!"
Huang Jiahui, who was sitting next to him, could not help but laugh.
"It seems like there are no rich people in Jingyue District," Luo Yuan sighed.
The middle-aged man could not stand being laughed at by a beautiful woman. He said with a pale face, "How about 1 million?"
"How many catties of rice can you buy with 1 million? Do you think it's still the same as before? 10 million? "Huang Jiahui interrupted.
Are you crazy? Why don't you just rob a bank? The middle-aged man was irritated. He cursed in his heart, but he did not dare to say anything. The beautiful woman was still holding a gun in her hand.
In fact, inflation had become very serious. The purchasing power of 1 million was less than 100 thousand in the past. Besides, there were many things that could not be bought with money. They could only be bartered with food. If you wanted to buy Luo Yuan's saber with 100 thousand, you would have to multiply it by 100.
The middle-aged man was so angry that he just sat there like the man in glasses. There were only two couples left in the parking lot, still kissing each other.
The barrage was getting closer and the ground started to shake.
Suddenly, Luo Yuan's heart skipped a beat. He quickly pushed Huang Jiahui and Wang Shishi to the ground. Before he could say anything, there was a loud bang above their heads.
"Boom!"
At this moment, a missile suddenly exploded in the sky above the residential area.
A few of them felt a buzz in their heads. Suddenly, the surroundings became quiet.
The woman in the couple suddenly touched her ear and felt that it was somewhat slippery. She looked down and saw that her hand was covered in blood. She was stunned for a moment and suddenly felt a chill in her heart. Then, she screamed loudly but found that she could not hear any sound at all.
She wanted to stand up, but her boyfriend hugged her tightly. She could not help but cry.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! "
The missiles exploded one after another, and the entire underground parking lot was filled with heatwaves. The temperature in the air had already risen to 40 to 50 degrees. The high-intensity explosions consumed a large amount of oxygen in the air above the city. The oxygen quickly thinned, making people feel suffocated.
Fortunately, the explosions that fell above their heads only lasted for 30 seconds before they continued to move forward.
Luo Yuan lay there for a while, waiting for the explosions to fade away. Then he stood up from Wang Shishi and Huang Jiahui's bodies. Huang Jiahui and Wang Shishi also got up. Wang Shishi's face was red, but no one knew what she was thinking.
"Let's go out and have a look," Luo Yuan said softly.
"Yes!" Huang Jiahui answered. She grabbed his hand and walked towards the exit of the parking lot.
Seeing this, the rest of them followed suit.
The entrance had collapsed, and the ground was full of gravel. The thinnest part of the edge was broken and full of cracks.
Luo Yuan looked at the entrance and felt lucky. If there had been a large scale collapse, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
They walked out of the entrance and looked at the residential area. Suddenly, they looked like petrified statues.
The whole area was in ruins. The buildings had become dilapidated, and some of them had even collapsed. Luo Yuan's face was pale. He quickly walked towards the building where he lived. As soon as he turned a corner, he saw the 13th building where he lived.
There was a huge crack from the sixth floor to the first floor. The wall in front of him had completely fallen off, and some of the decorations in the house could be seen.
Even though the building was barely holding up and could no longer support its owner, Luo Yuan was still relieved and looked much better.
He had stored a lot of things in his room. Judging by the current value, it was definitely a huge sum of money.
They all lived in the 13th building, and they were all happy to see it.
They quickened their pace and walked to the ground floor of the 13th building. The metal door was closed, and there was no sound.
Luo Yuan felt a chill in his heart, and he slowed down.
Chen Guo Hua strode to the front and knocked on the door, but no one answered. He mumbled and took out the key from his pocket to open the door.
The next moment, his face turned pale as if he had seen a ghost. He took a few steps back and fell to the ground.
"Dead, they're all dead!" he mumbled to himself.
The few of them looked inside through the door. There were dozens of corpses lying in the hall. Their faces were twisted, and they were bleeding from their orifices. Obviously, they were killed by the missiles. What was even more shocking was that the hands and feet of these corpses were still twitching.
Wang Shishi was so scared that her face turned pale. She quickly hid behind Luo Yuan.
Luo Yuan had seen many dead people, so he recovered quickly. He said to Huang Jiahui, "We can't stay here anymore. Wait for me here. I'll move the things down."
"I'll move with you!" Huang Jiahui said.
"I want to move too!" Wang Shishi stood up from behind Luo Yuan and said stubbornly with her pale face raised.
"You and Sister Huang stay here. I'm worried that someone might get greedy. This is the most chaotic time in the city. Be careful," Luo Yuan said with a forced smile.
"Okay, you be careful too. This building could collapse at any time," Huang Jiahui said with concern.
"Okay!" Luo Yuan nodded.
He walked past the corpses and went to the fourth floor.
The staircase was broken, and some parts were broken. Even the parts that were intact were full of cracks. Fortunately, the gap was not too big. The biggest one was only five or six steps. It was not a problem for him, considering his physical fitness.
However, even though he was extremely careful along the way, he still almost fell a few times.
Ten minutes later, Luo Yuan finally reached the fourth floor.
The anti-theft door had moved away from its original position, and the corridor between the staircase and his room had fallen to the third floor.
Luo Yuan jumped into his room after jumping two meters down the corridor.
The living room had become a huge hole, and the only piece of furniture in the living room, the sofa, had fallen to the third floor.
However, the storage room next to the living room was still there.
There were eight 100-catty bags of food, medicine, snacks, some salted duck eggs, pickled vegetables, canned meat, and even a few big bags of toilet paper. Luo Yuan had bought everything he saw when he was shopping like crazy, so he still had a lot of food left. He could not use them all.
Looking at the supplies, it was obviously impossible to move them downstairs, so he could only throw them down.
Luo Yuan removed the wooden planks in the storage room and opened the window.
He asked Huang Jiahui to go downstairs. Then, he threw the bags of food down.
The bags were not sturdy, so most of them exploded when they reached the ground floor. However, he could not care less now.
After Luo Yuan had thrown everything down, he looked at the kitchen. It was a pity that there was still a lot of marinated rat king meat in the kitchen, so he had to give it up.
