The next day, I decided to search for survival kits with the class leader and the others. Although I don't know how to use firearms, I'm a strong man. Even if it's just carrying goods, I'm definitely better than Gong CaiCai.
Gong CaiCai was exhausted from yesterday's search, so she let Xiao Yin and her rest in the bunker. There was only one entrance to the bunker and it was sealed off with a metal door. You can't enter without a key, but it was enough to stop mutated beasts that feed on humans.
Of course, since this mission was more like a test of my mental stability, we were only 1500 meters away from the bunker. The class leader and Winnie could drag me back if anything happened along the way.
If the wind direction was right, Xiao Yin's sense of smell could pinpoint the location of the survival kit to within 10 meters. That was a rare advantage for us after the apocalypse.
Due to the abnormal weather, this world had a constant snowstorm. The exterior of the survival kit was white, so it was easy to hide in the snow. Without special detection methods, it was really difficult to find the survival kit by luck.
We usually traveled against the wind. It wasn't because we were arrogant, but there was an abandoned mountain road a few kilometers away. It might be because it connected two medium-sized cities, so there were a lot of survival kits left on the side of the road. Every time there was a strong wind, a survival kit would slide down the road and approach our bunker like skiing. Xiao Yin would then point out the direction and distance after smelling it, and we could then follow the map.
But today, there are no longer any cars on the mountain roads. The survival kits left behind by our predecessors will probably be used up one day. The Sword of Damocles has always been hanging over the class leader's head. It makes her worry about our future, and she doesn't dare to slack off.
"Gong CaiCai is cultivating some mushrooms in the cave below the bunker." The class leader who was walking in front said while facing the wind and snow, "There isn't enough sunlight all year round, so the only plant that can be harvested is mushrooms. But because she often goes on missions with us, she doesn't have enough time and stamina. If you can stabilize your mind …"
"Then I wouldn't have to eat until I'm half full all day." Winnie patted me from behind, "Also, no matter how lustful you are, you wouldn't dare to attack us while we're armed, right?"
Winnie and the class leader both carried an AK47 assault rifle on their shoulders. This was a large stockpile they found when they first found the abandoned bunker. There was also plenty of ammo and it was suitable for the current harsh environment.
In comparison, I only had a tactical sword with a 90mm blade. Since I firmly believed that I did not receive any firearms training at the refugee camp, the class leader could only give me this.
Winnie, on the other hand, was still worried about me holding a cold weapon.
"Hey, Ye Lin, are you going to stab us with a knife when you go crazy? With such a long blade, if he poked it, he would probably see the King of Hell! If you poke me with something else, I might not even care … "
"Enough!" The class leader interrupted Winnie's dirty joke, "I've measured it with my feet, it's around 1400 meters. We might be able to see the survival kit in another 100 meters, keep your eyes open!"
Winnie pouted. "What's the point of opening your eyes wide? When was it not you who discovered it first? I should be careful of my surroundings … it wouldn't be fun if I met a mutated grizzly bear. "
Suddenly, a thought flashed through my head.
"Winnie, isn't your real name Xiong YaoYue? Who gave you the nickname 'Winnie'? "
"Huh? I'm a forgetful person! "Winnie was flabbergasted," Didn't you give it to me! Since it doesn't have a bear in it, I've always used it — — do you have a problem with that? "
Wait … I felt something was off. I didn't give Xiong YaoYue the nickname Winnie, but I couldn't remember who was the first person to call her Winnie.
The class leader suddenly stopped and said worriedly: "It will be harder and harder for us to collect survival kits in the future. At that time, we might have to hunt mutated grizzly bears for food."
"But I heard at the refugee camp that you will also mutate if you eat mutated creatures!" Winnie frowned.
"That doesn't mean we can't just sit and do nothing." The class leader said in a deep voice, "Once the number of survival kits decreases, we will have to try eating mutated creatures. Maybe I should use myself as an experiment for half a year …"
As the self-sacrificing class leader was discussing this matter, we suddenly heard a sound that was comparable to a small avalanche. The three of us looked towards the direction of the sound and saw an empty jeep being carried by the wind and snow. It slid down the huge slope in front of us.
The three of us, who weren't bad in terms of agility, retreated to the sides. The Jeep also gradually slowed down due to the friction. Finally, it stopped after sliding 50 meters in front of us.
There was no driver on the jeep that was lying on the snowy ground. There was a cotton glove that was dyed red with blood on the steering wheel. The backseat of the jeep was filled with cotton balls of survival kits that were now mixed with the snow.
"Damn! What a great harvest! " Winnie shouted in disbelief, "Xiao Yin said there was a strong smell in this direction, but I didn't expect it to be a whole car full of survival kits! Did the driver abandon the car and escape? "
Winnie threw herself on the snow without confirming if there was any danger. She picked up one survival kit after another and looked at them before putting them down and laughing loudly.
"Hahahaha! Class leader, I told you you were too pessimistic! There's no need to eat a mutated grizzly bear! It would be fine even if we don't go out for a month with this great harvest! "
Although I strongly denied the reality of this world, I was still in a good mood after the unexpected harvest.
"Class leader, there are at least 50 survival kits here, why don't we transport them in batches back to the bunker …"
Suddenly, I felt a strange dizziness and a slight pain on my arm. But when I rolled up my sleeves to check, there was no wound, not even a red dot.
"What's wrong?" The class leader asked me vigilantly, "Are you going to lose your mind again?"
"No, my arm just hurts a bit." I said doubtfully, "Did mosquitoes also mutate in this world?"
"Mosquitoes? How can there be mosquitoes when it snows every day? "Winnie sat on the snow and laughed at me," Are you trying to avoid doing labor? Let me tell you, you have to take at least 25 of these 50 survival kits! "
"Boom, boom, boom!"
At a place even further away than the mountain road, the sound of footsteps shook the entire world. The jeep slid down a few meters in the tremor. Winnie had to roll and crawl to avoid being scratched by the jeep.
I looked at the huge Godzilla like shadow, shocked speechless.
Separated by the snow and wind, I could vaguely see a humanoid creature, but its size surpassed the Monarch Building described in the 'Dong Shan City Tourist Guide'. It could practically swallow the entire building whole.
Also, that thing actually spoke.
"Fish … fish … fish …!"
Its voice sounded illusory and distant, as if it was even further away from us than I expected.
What does it mean!? Does it like to eat fish because it's the same species as Godzilla? It's horrifying to watch a giant monster call out to its favorite food from the bottom of its heart!
The giant monster called out for a while, but it lowered its head in disappointment and gradually walked away, perhaps because no one was kind enough to feed it fish.
But when its giant shadow disappeared into the snow and wind, it was still stubbornly calling out: "Fish … fish … fish …"
"What is that?" I was so scared my legs went soft and I asked the class leader who was barely able to maintain her calm.
The class leader adjusted her breathing before answering: "No one knows what it is, but the refugee camp was destroyed the first time it appeared. Xiao Zhe might have also …"
The class leader's black pupils ignited with flames of hatred.
"It might not be its doing, right?" Winnie patted the snow off her body and stood up. "This thing always runs in circles far away from each other. Because it's always shouting 'fish', it's nicknamed 'Yuslar'. Including this time, it's the third time we've seen it. It didn't hurt us or tried to get close to us."
"I think it's an ominous creature." The class leader shook her head, "I don't understand how the current food chain can allow such a large creature to exist. Maybe one day it will completely destroy the world."
Because of Yuslar's appearance, we didn't dare to stay outside for too long. We only did our best to bring back five survival kits and left the rest for another day. We haven't seen other humans for over a year, and the animals can't stand the smell of the foam on the outside of the survival kits.
"What good luck!" Winnie boasted to Gong CaiCai who was staying behind. "We found 50 … No, about 60 survival kits! We'll go get it tomorrow! There might even be chocolate in the survival kit we brought back today! "
"Ah, you're really lucky." Gong CaiCai said enviously, "We ran so far yesterday and only found one survival kit. So it's because I'm a burden to everyone …"
"Don't say that." The class leader meticulously hung the gun on the wall, "The mushrooms you grew in the cave are very important to everyone. We can't eat fresh vegetables, and if we didn't have mushrooms to increase our immune system, we would have already fallen sick."
Everyone came in and out, but Xiao Yin was still sleeping soundly on the bed. I blushed when I thought about how I had to sleep on the same bed as her last night and how she shamelessly rubbed against me, hoping to tempt me into taking the initiative to attack her.
But I held it in because the bunker didn't have any soundproofing, so we could hear each other even if we were slightly louder. I didn't want the class leader to laugh at me.
I can't believe I've been in an abnormal relationship with Xiao Yin for a year. Why don't I have any memories of that? Am I shameless enough to roll in the sheets with a loli even if the class leader, Gong CaiCai, and Winnie eavesdropped on me every day?
After I calmed down, I held a tactical knife and imitated the class leader from yesterday. I planned on cutting the five survival kits to see what was inside.
