Sitting in the main hall of the shop, Lu Sheng stared at the deathly silent city streets through the glass window on the street.
The city's power supply seemed to be damaged, and the lights couldn't be turned on. There was no water either.
Lu Sheng could only rest for now. He would search the area the next morning to see if he could find anything to eat.
The little food he had could only last him two days at most.
No one spoke, and there was no sound or movement. There wasn't even the chirping of insects.
Lu Sheng sat alone in the darkness, leaning against the long leather sofa in the shop. He lay on his side and slowly entered Meditation.
The tenth stage of the Assassination Fist required at least three days for his body to completely adapt, and then he could advance to the next level.
Time passed slowly.
Without realizing it, Lu Sheng meditated on the time and automatically fell asleep.
Even though it was only a light sleep, he would quickly wake up and be on guard if there was even the slightest threat outside.
But to his surprise, he actually dreamed.
In his dream, he was standing under a huge black sun.
He could see the black sun when he raised his head, constantly emitting a bone-chilling cold.
The black sun seemed to be sinking and getting closer. He felt like he was about to be frozen into a popsicle.
"Phew …"
Slowly opening his eyes, Lu Sheng was naturally awake because of the faint white light shining on his eyelids.
He turned over and ate some biscuits and water he had brought, straightened his clothes, and continued to explore the depths of Calford.
Soon, he found an intact van, moved a few barrels of gasoline from the gas station, and got ready to go. He began searching around the city for food.
The previous encounter made him realize that before his strength reached a certain level, it was almost a fool's dream to want to build a stable base.
Not to mention anything else, just that woman in white could easily destroy everything, causing all the effort he had put into building to go down the drain.
For two consecutive days, Lu Sheng didn't enter Pain Perception again. Even for him now, it was too dangerous.
In no time, Lu Sheng found two huge boxes of dry rations and drinking water in a large supermarket in Calford. There were also some nutritional supplements. They were used to prevent micronutrient deficiencies.
Driving the black van, Lu Sheng followed the map and drove at high speed in the direction of Aso.
After leaving Calford, there were fewer cars on the road, and only a few buildings could be seen on both sides of the road.
What replaced it was a desolate plain overgrown with weeds.
For the whole day, he kept driving, following the route on the map.
Without the Internet, phones and computers were useless. While Lu Sheng was searching for food, he also installed a solar panel on top of the car to meet the need for temporary charging.
On the afternoon of the third day.
The sky gradually darkened.
A small gas station gradually appeared on the side of the road ahead.
Lu Sheng slowed down the car and honked as usual.
Beep beep!
This was a reminder to the living that someone was coming.
If there was anyone alive in this place, they would be able to hear the noise and walk out on their own.
Opening the door, Lu Sheng put on his gloves and got out of the car.
The White Knight's gloves were made of soft white leather, made of an unknown material, after removing the Pain Perception.
Wearing it on his hand, he could faintly feel a burning sensation of corrosion. However, this was nothing to Lu Sheng, whose body had been strengthened.
The gas station was bathed in the afterglow of the setting sun, quiet and desolate.
A gust of wind blew past, blowing some leaves and grass on the ground into the air.
Lu Sheng sighed and strode toward the gas station's storefront.
"Hiss."
Unexpectedly, the electricity here was still on. The automatic door slowly opened with a crisp "ding dong".
At the same time, a pitch-black shotgun appeared, aimed at Lu Sheng's nose.
"Don't move!" A strong black man with a ponytail, with a twisted smile, aimed his gun at Lu Sheng.
"How lucky. Look, another fat sheep! So much meat on him, enough for us brothers to eat for a week! "
The black man chuckled.
A tall and strong white man in jeans and a black shirt walked out of the shop, holding a shotgun in his hand. He also aimed at Lu Sheng.
The white man licked his lips and said in a deep voice, "Don't be hasty. Ask him if there's anyone else with him!"
Lu Sheng looked at the two of them, a warm smile on his face.
"Only the two of you here?"
"Maybe, who knows? Who knows, there might be more in a few days, "the white man replied with a cold smile.
"Then, do you have food and drinks here?" Lu Sheng asked again.
"Of course, aren't you? Hahahaha! "The two of them could not help but laugh.
Lu Sheng scanned the inside of the shop. The rows of shelves were filled with all kinds of food and drinks.
There were six rows of shelves, all filled with all kinds of food.
"Then, can I take some?" Lu Sheng asked with a smile.
"Are you crazy?" The black man pulled off the safety.
Lu Sheng smiled and walked straight to one of the shelves. He completely ignored the muzzle of the gun in front of him.
"Crazy!! Stop! I told you to stop!! "
Bang!!
The black man's face twisted, and he pulled the trigger.
The bullet brushed past Lu Sheng and hit the fridge, leaving a black hole in the metal surface.
By then, Lu Sheng had already found a plastic bag and was stuffing food into it.
"F * ck your mother!" This time, the white man could not hold it in any longer. He started shooting wildly at Lu Sheng.
Bang bang bang bang bang!!!
Bullets rained down around Lu Sheng, but strangely, none of them hit him.
This was the power of the Ten Rings of Obsession. The moment they saw Lu Sheng, the two of them had fallen for his Ten Rings of Obsession.
This special hypnotic ability would not only cause visual disorientation, but also auditory hallucinations.
Bang!!
All of a sudden, the gunshots stopped.
Unbeknownst to him, the white man had already shot the black man's forehead.
Brain juice burst, and blood splattered everywhere.
The black man's face was lifeless, and his face was full of bloody holes. The gun in his hand also fell to the ground.
Lu Sheng put away the food and drinks, stood up, and slowly walked out of the shop.
The white man behind him was shooting wildly with his shotgun.
Finally, he raised the muzzle and pointed it at his own face.
"How dare you steal my food, go to hell!!"
Bang.
Everything was quiet.
Lu Sheng walked out of the gas station, and when he was about to get into his car, he suddenly heard faint shouts.
He stopped in his tracks. His sharp five senses quickly located the source.
"It's the underground here."
He turned around and quickly returned to the shop, ignoring the two corpses at his feet, and walked into the room inside.
Inside the room, there were piles of goods. In the corner of the room, there was a wooden cover for a basement.
Lu Sheng walked over, crouched down, and opened the cover. Inside, there was a row of stone steps that led downwards.
"Help!!"
"Help me!!"
"Please!!"
"Help!!"
A bunch of voices came from underground.
Lu Sheng slowly walked down. Below was a very spacious basement.
The rectangular basement was like a prison, and there were many large black iron cages.
Most of the cages contained one or two living people.
There were men and women in these cages, old and young. But most of them were young people.
As soon as Lu Sheng came down, the group of people became abnormally agitated, and began to shout crazily.
Looking at more than ten living people, Lu Sheng's face showed a gentle smile.
"Does anyone know how to get to Mother Aso?" Faint white vortexes appeared in his eyes.
The voices quickly quieted down.
Everyone's emotions were strangely suppressed by an inexplicable pressure, and gradually, they did not dare to make a sound.
"No one knows?" Lu Sheng was a little disappointed.
"We don't need to go to Mother Aso!" An old man in the cage raised his voice. "This is an emergency shelter that I designed, and it can accommodate up to fifty people."
"I came from Mother Aso." Another young woman screamed, "Only people of the second stratum can enjoy everything there. Ordinary people can only live there, and everything else can only be like dogs! I couldn't stand it, so I escaped. "
"It's all because of those two perverts, Victor, they drugged us!"
"Large colonies are all the same. I came from Baelgar, and it's the same there. People of the second stratum won't be punished even if they kill someone! This is crazy! "
Many of the others began to complain about the oppression of ordinary people in other colonies.
From their words, Lu Sheng also understood that this was originally a small colony, and the leader was the old man who spoke first.
The old man's name was Buck, and he was already seventy-nine years old. He was a university professor in physics and engineering. He was the one who led the people to build this temporary shelter.
However, he did not expect to be drugged by the black man and the white man who took them in later. They knocked everyone out and threw them into the cage.
"So, what do I get out of letting you guys out?" Although Lu Sheng was not a bad person, he was not a good person either. He was just a young man with a bottom line.
He would not do bad things on purpose, nor would he take the initiative to do good things.
He could let the people go, but he had to get enough benefits first.
The people in the cage quietened down, and everyone looked at Old Barker.
The old man touched his bald head and smiled bitterly.
"We can elect you as the leader. I can see that you easily took care of those two bad guys. You have to know that one of them used to serve in the Marine Corps. You must be very strong to be able to take care of them so easily. "
Lu Sheng thought about it.
"Is there anyone who practices the Illusory Mind Style here?"
The Illusory Mind Style was very popular here, like Taekwondo, Jujitsu, and Boxing on Earth.
At his question, the man and woman quickly stood up.
"I learned it!"
"I'm an Illusory Mind Style instructor!"
Lu Sheng laughed.
"Actually, I'm a master of the Illusory Mind Style who has been training hard for many years. I've lived in seclusion in the mountains for many years. Now that the world is dark, and the people are in misery, it's the best time for us martial artists to restore order and restore martial arts! "
The two were dumbfounded when they heard this.
In fact, they treated fighting as a hobby. However, the person in front of them seemed to have mental problems, but they had to fool him first.
