The Last Chef

"Baby, what did you think happened to that old man just now?" Zhao Yiyi asked as they walked.

"It cannot be confirmed at the moment, I guess he is a mutated zombie." said Xu Baobao.

"Well, he looks like a normal person, except that he speaks a little strangely." Zhao Yiyi said.

"Didn't you see the slightly red light in his eyes? I think he should be a mutated zombie, and his intelligence has initially awakened, but the level of intelligence is not high. Currently, he has a sense of territory like an animal." Xu Baobao said.

"So according to what you said, it is possible that mutated zombies can become like normal people?" Zhao Yiyi said.

"We don't rule out this possibility, but I don't know whether it's a good thing or a bad thing for the zombies to awaken their wisdom." Xu Baobao said.

"What should we do? We can't keep an eye on the zombies every day." Zhao Yiyi said.

"I think everything else is just floating clouds. The only thing that matters is making ourselves stronger. Even if the zombies awaken their wisdom, as long as we are stronger than them, we can ensure our safety." Xu Baobao said.

"Moreover, I think the number of zombies in People's Park is less than I thought. We only killed about a hundred zombies in People's Park today. I suspect that the other zombies were absorbed by the Tai Chi old man." Xu Baobao said again.

"Yeah, doesn't that mean that the Tai Chi master is stronger than us? The purple-skinned zombie in the hospital is only worth a hundred system coins, and it was very difficult for us to fight it. This Tai Chi master should be worth at least two hundred system coins." Zhao Yiyi said.

"Yes, so when it asked us to leave, I chose to pull you away without hesitation, before it attacked us. I guess if we met it at night, we would be in danger." Xu Baobao said.

"Well, that was a close call. I almost didn't have time to eat. Haha." Zhao Yiyi said.

"...Well, I never realized you like eating so much before." Xu Baobao said.

"It's because you've been cooking so well recently that I've gained a little weight." Zhao Yiyi said.

"Speaking of cooking, let's go get some seasoning. The ones we got from the hotel are running out." Xu Baobao said.

"Okay, then let's go to the nearby small supermarket first?" Zhao Yiyi said.

"I think it's a good idea. Let's see if there's anything usable and move it to the space kitchen." Baobao Xu said.

Xu Baobao and Zhao Yiyi looked at five small supermarkets on the nearby road and found that items like mineral water, toilet paper, beverages, instant noodles, salt, light soy sauce, and dried noodles were almost all gone. They might have been looted by nearby survivors.

However, all the leftover items will be packed up and moved into the space kitchen. In case they are useful in the future, we won’t have to come here specifically.

"Shall we open the space kitchen near People's Park and take a rest tonight?" Zhao Yiyi asked.

"It feels weird around here, let's go to another place." Xu Baobao said.

Afterwards, Xu Baobao and his companion rode their motorcycle to find a relatively secluded gas station. After filling up the motorcycle with gas, they opened the space kitchen two hundred meters away from the gas station and returned to the farmyard to rest.

What Xu Baobao and the others didn't know was that when the last ray of light from the setting sun disappeared, the only dozens of zombies left in the People's Park were fleeing for their lives, and the one chasing them was none other than the Tai Chi master they met today.

There was a bright red light in his eyes, and a thick black fog surrounded him within a 2-meter radius. All the zombies covered by the black fog were absorbed within ten seconds, without even a bone left.
