Doomsday Paradise

Chapter 9 Doomsday's Supermarket doesn't cost money
too hot.

This kind of heat, if you are not in it, I am afraid you can't imagine it at all - the sweat just came out, and it evaporated immediately, followed by another layer of hot sweat.Lin Sanjiu only felt that his body system seemed to have become an old dog lingering, struggling to survive in the hot air.

In comparison, Lu Ze looks much stronger.Even though he was carrying Mather on his back, no matter how he looked at it, he seemed calmer than Lin Sanjiu.He saw it himself and asked loudly, "Hey, are you... physically strong...?"

"What?" Lin Sanjiu also raised his voice.The sound of the surrounding car engines was too loud. Lu Ze was only on the other side of the car, so she couldn't hear it clearly.

"I said—" Lu Ze took a few steps around the car and came over.Mather on his back was taller than him, with both feet dragging on the ground. "Aren't you physically strengthened?"

Lin Sanjiu just spit out two words, but Lin Sanjiu felt that her tongue was dry, and it went all the way into her throat. She didn't dare to speak any more, so she shook her head and motioned for Lu Ze to leave quickly.Lu Ze looked surprised, as if he wanted to say something - but now is the time for small talk?He nodded hastily, and began to arduously pass through the traffic that was constantly blowing out the steam.

Every few steps, Lin Sanjiu raised his hand to wipe his eyelids.She sweated so much that it dripped into her eyes just now, and it was hot and uncomfortable - she couldn't help but doubt herself: Is that "high temperature adaptation" time-sensitive?Otherwise, why was she not so hot at first, but now she is sweating like rain?

If it goes on like this, can I rush to the supermarket before getting dehydrated?

The two looked around in silence - there was a guardrail in the middle of the road, which was intended to divide the traffic in two directions.But when the crisis comes, there are too few people who can still obey the traffic rules. At this time, the cars on both sides are entangled in different directions, some are going in the right direction, some are going in the wrong direction...

If you climb over the guardrail, it will not only be a physical burden and inconvenient to carry Mather on your back, but it will also mean you have to pass through a hot stream of traffic - which is really terrible.

At the same time, both of them walked towards the end of the car dragon.

The driver of the Land Rover was a thin woman; when the two passed by, Lin Sanjiu found that she had fallen into the car, her eyes were sunken, and her personnel was unknown—I am afraid that she had been dehydrated all the way, and had already suffered from dehydration and depression. With the symptoms of unconsciousness, he crashed into the car in a panic.

In the car whose front was smashed by Land Rover, the air conditioner can no longer be used; but thanks to the previous air conditioner, the middle-aged fat man who was driving miraculously remained awake. stared at them closely.

When Lin Sanjiu passed by his car, the fat man slammed at her and banged on the window several times.

To be honest, Lin Sanjiu is not a hard-hearted person; but at this time she is about to heat up, and it is still a question of how long she can last, and she can't squeeze out any excess compassion, she only frowns and looks at it. A look at the fat man.

Through the glass, the fat man's voice was indistinct: "It's... hot outside... can you go?"

Lin Sanjiu probably guessed what he meant, and shook his head to indicate no, and walked away.The heat from the car made the already bad situation even more unbearable, and she couldn't bear to stop.

Seeing that she was leaving, the fat man suddenly became anxious and pushed open the car door: "I'm talking to you, you stop - aren't you just walking outside, I..." Before he finished speaking, he suddenly said A piercing scream.

There was a tingling pain in the scream, and it even drowned out the sound of the engine.Lin Sanjiu turned around and found that as soon as the exposed skin of the fat man came into contact with the exhaust gas, a series of blisters burst out——

The bright red blood-filled blisters squeezed and exploded on his skin. The fat man's face and hands seemed to have been splashed with hot boiling water, and pieces of broken skin burst out shockingly.His screaming continued, Lin Sanjiu couldn't bear it any longer, he supported Lu Ze to stabilize his body with one hand, raised his foot, kicked him back into the car, and then slammed the door shut.

The screams of pain suddenly became lighter, and seeing that the fat man's scald didn't seem to continue anymore - Lin Sanjiu took a breath, and exchanged a frightened look with Lu Ze.

It turned out that it was not her ability that had declined, but the temperature outside had risen to a terrifying level: when ordinary people were exposed to the air heated and transpired by the exhaust gas, even their skin had a scalding reaction—

"Don't think about it, let's go!" Lu Ze, who has always been talkative, also began to cherish words like gold.

The two hurried out of the car dragon and left hundreds of thousands of engines, which made it feel a little better.After crossing the road and onto the sidewalk with trees, the two of them did not dare to delay, and rushed towards the shopping center.

The leaves on the roadside had already lost their green color, scorched black and withered, curled up under the trees.Every now and then, Lin Sanjiu would see a few people lying motionless on the ground—every inch of their skin was burnt, and their bodies had already stopped moving.

No matter how strong she was, it was the first time that Lin Sanjiu had seen so many dead people—she swallowed with fear and nausea, but her mouth was dry and there was no moisture at all.

"Let's drink the rest of the Coke!" Lu Ze's hoarse voice came from behind.

Lin Sanjiu thought about it and took out the last can of Coke.Coke does not replenish water, but there is drinking water in the supermarket, so there is no need to suffer this kind of sin outside.In the past, I couldn't finish drinking Coke in one breath, but at this time I felt that it was too little - the two of them didn't care whether it was good or not, so you and I drank half of the hot Coke.

Throwing away the jar and walking for a while, the main entrance of the shopping center gradually revealed a clear appearance.

The fountain pool, which never stopped in the past, was dry and cracked, as if it had never been wet.However, several corpses lying face down in the pool showed that this fountain was their last hope.After the death, the corpses whose skin was scalded again fell to the ground in every place, shocking.

Lin Sanjiu lowered his head, carefully avoiding the corpse on the ground, and hopped forward.Occasionally raised his head, only to find that Lu Ze was carrying Mather on his back, and he had walked in front of him at some point.

Just wondering how he walked so fast, he immediately had the answer: Lu Ze didn't care at all, stepped on the back of a young mother's corpse, and walked into the gate of the shopping mall as if walking on the ground.

Lin Sanjiu hurried a few steps, chased after him, and slapped him angrily on the arm: "Can't you be more respectful to the dead?" His throat was sore after he said a word.

Lu Ze was startled by her, his expression was a little confused, and then he reacted: "Oh, oh! That ah... I'm sorry, I've seen too many dead people, I'm probably a little numb." He embarrassed Showing a rabbit tooth: "I just started, and I am the same as you."

Seeing that he had a good attitude, Lin Sanjiu didn't say anything even if he was uncomfortable, and changed the subject: "Go over there, there is an elevator to go down!"

Lu Ze nodded, then looked up at the shopping center, and praised softly, "This place is really beautiful..." Without stopping, he followed Lin Sanjiu all the way to the supermarket.

It is said that this shopping center was designed by a famous French architect: a total of five floors, the middle is empty, planted with dense tropical plants.Probably because of the layers, the tropical trees have grown high up to the elevator on the fifth floor. When you walk here, you feel as if you are walking in the virgin forest.

But now there is no time to appreciate it.Lin Sanjiu quickly glanced at the tropical forest, only to feel that something was wrong, and he couldn't say why, so he shook his head and rushed down the elevator.

However, when they saw the supermarket, both of them couldn't help taking a breath.

The situation was worse than what Lin Sanjiu had expected—she was definitely not the only one who could think of this supermarket; but the situation in this supermarket still made her feel unexpected.

The supermarket was apparently open last night when it was unusually warm, so it was packed.Of course, these people couldn't move or speak at this time, they fell on the ground and turned into corpses.The chaos of last night seemed to be solidified: there were empty bottles rolling down everywhere, mineral water bottles, beverage bottles... The beige floor was splashed with traces of dried fruit drinks.The drink rack looked like it had been looted, with the last few bottles of water lying in a mess, while the arms of several dead people on the ground were holding a pile of drinks stained with blood and body fluids.

The most astounding thing is that the cause of death of one cashier was obviously not dehydration - the back of her head was sunk deeply, and the cash register in front of her was open and empty.

Lu Ze clicked his tongue twice: "People who steal money should be stupid now!"

"If he's not dead yet." Lin Sanjiu had already lost his dry tongue. He took out a bottle of water from the arms of a corpse at the door, drank half of the bottle without any hesitation, and handed it to Lu Ze. .

It seems that although the supermarket is full of corpses and has gone through some chaos, at least it should not be a problem to maintain drinking water for three people.Lu Ze was tired after walking all the way with Mather on his back. He put her on the floor and muttered, "It's not a real flesh and blood, why is it so heavy..."

Lin Sanjiu was resting on a cash register without dead people. Hearing this, he couldn't help but asked curiously, "I wanted to ask... I wasn't too embarrassed when Mather was there before. That degenerate said that she It's fake blood and fake meat, what do you mean?"

"She is a personality differentiated from me, and in a sense, an independent person." Lu Ze said while drinking water, "However, her true degree depends on my ability... Now I am not capable enough. , so a lot of things about Mather aren't quite...well, realistic."

Lin Sanjiu nodded and didn't ask any further.The two replenished their water and rested for a while, and then they felt that the empty stomach was feeling uncomfortable.

"Let's go to the food area?" Lin Sanjiu suggested.

"Wait." Lu Ze stopped her, looked around, and asked, "Is there anything I can use as a weapon here?"
