Chapter 12 - Collecting Materials

An insufficient blood supply to the brain caused by striking the carotid artery was medically known as carotid sinus syncope.

For example, chopping the back of the neck, hitting the temples or Adam's apple, pinching the ears, or hitting the abdomen, diaphragm, and lungs could knock someone out.

These were all very precious combat experiences that could allow people to survive longer in the apocalypse.

These were what Ling Yichen learned when he teamed up with a doctor before the apocalypse in his previous life. This doctor was a good person, but his life was a little short. He was not lucky enough to follow Ling Yichen to the end.

Perhaps the most terrifying factor in the apocalypse was the publicly acknowledged monsters, but Ling Yichen believed that it was the human heart.

The human heart was the most terrifying thing. The oppressive life in the apocalypse would change many people's civilized style, causing many people to have psychological distortions and even mental illnesses. No one knew if the person who teamed up with them was a psychotic psychopath.

Ling Yichen had met many such people, just like the current Li Jia'an. He was an incompetent and resentful person. He was the kind of person who had a dark heart and did not want others to be well.

Later, Ling Yichen threw Li Jia'an into the Insect Nest Demiplane, making him stay here forever and unable to make a comeback.

The Insect Nest Demiplane was a complete demiplane. It could accommodate living people, but the person who entered had to be unconscious or agree not to resist.

Once they entered the Insect Nest Demiplane, Ling Yichen could do whatever he wanted. He controlled all the rules here.

Even if Li Jia'an wanted to die soon, he couldn't even bite his tongue to commit suicide.

Ling Yichen walked around Li Jia'an's house and moved away some things that might be useful before leaving.

In the future, there would be a group of post-apocalyptic survivors called scavengers who would search for survival supplies in these uninhabited houses. This lifestyle lasted for a long time. Ling Yichen had also been a scavenger for a period of time. This was a habit he had developed in the past.

By the time he returned home, there were already eight Worker Bees.

Ling Yichen thought that he would stop after expanding his army to have ten Worker Bees. After he accumulated 1,000 units of organic matter, he would build the [Organic Matter Conversion Pool]. Then, he would expand his army and add the other combat-type insects to cooperate with him in battle.

Coincidentally, Ling Zixing had just finished her cultivation and opened her eyes to look at Ling Yichen.

Ling Zixing pouted. "Brother, did you sneak out? Why didn't you wait for me? What if you get injured?"

Ling Yichen shrugged and did not say what had just happened to him. He said indifferently, "Isn't it fine? Moreover, I have the Hidden Shadow Spider to help me. Nothing will happen."

"Humph." Ling Zixing snorted and asked, "Then what should we do next?"

Ling Yichen had already thought of a plan for the future. He said, "We should collect supplies. The more supplies we have, the better. The factory's assembly lines must have stopped running. Production will not resume for a long time in the future."

If they wanted to resume production, they definitely needed a stable place that was free of monsters from the outside world. Although the national machinery was powerful, the apocalypse occupied the entire world. Even if the various countries joined forces, they could not stop the arrival of a new era.

Ling Zixing nodded, indicating that she understood. She asked, "Brother, how are we going to gather supplies?"

"From the supermarkets and other shops nearby. The goods piled up inside are our first choice."

Although Ling Yichen had bought some food at the market, he had already accumulated a large amount of meat and vegetables in the Insect Nest Demiplane. Moreover, because he was the master of the Insect Nest Demiplane, he could control all factors there other than the flow of time.

He could control the temperature, oxidation, and other factors that would cause food to deteriorate. Even the growth of harmful bacteria could not appear on these foods.

To Ling Yichen, the Insect Nest Demiplane was also a natural preservation refrigerator in another sense. This made him very unconcerned that too much food would go bad and be wasted.

The reason why he had gone to the market to buy meat, vegetables, some seasonings, and some daily necessities nearby was simply because the market was far from his house. However, there was a supermarket nearby. He could just go over and take the supplies away.

As for why he went to buy daily necessities, it was because he was worried that an accident would happen. He acted cautiously like this. Regardless of whether he could find them later, he had some backups of all kinds of supplies.

"We'll set off now. If we wait until night falls, it won't be beneficial to our operation. Our target will be the nearby Nanda Supermarket."

There was something that Ling Yichen did not say, which was that the current zombies were still the weaker version. When they went over tonight, they would be completely transformed zombies, and their strength would reach Mortal Body Rank-1.

A human at Mortal Body Rank-1 could fight ten people alone, just like Ip Man on television.

The zombie virus would push ordinary humans to reach Mortal Body Rank-1 quickly. At that time, the zombies would not be able to move as fast as ordinary people.

"Then let's go now and move all the food and necessities out."

Ling Zixing did not say that it was illegal to rob others. She also knew that in the face of disaster, people who paid too much attention to the quality of civilization would not live long.

In this era, they were already extremely lucky to be able to survive. How could they expect more?

Ever since her parents had passed away, Ling Zixing had cherished Ling Yichen very much. She did not want to live alone.

Therefore, as long as she could live with Ling Yichen, no matter what she had to do, she would abandon the kindness of a civilized society and be an evil person.

Then, Ling Yichen prepared two watermelon knives for Ling Zixing. They were not heavy, but they did not require much skill. All she needed to do was to cut or stab.

Moreover, when facing zombies, Ling Yichen would not let Ling Zixing take the risk. After all, she did not have her own skills. She only needed to protect herself.

Ling Yichen had never thought of asking Ling Zixing to help him kill zombies and mutated creatures, as well as otherworldly creatures that had yet to appear from the spatial rift. He was just worried about letting Ling Zixing stay at home alone. At the same time, he wanted Ling Zixing to experience the horrors of the apocalypse.

The brother and sister went downstairs again. At this moment, two more zombies had wandered over unconsciously.

The Hidden Shadow Spider and Ling Yichen separated the two zombies and easily killed them before he put them into the Insect Nest Demiplane.

The two of them and the spider continued to walk towards the nearby Nanda Supermarket. Their movements were quite slow. This way, they could avoid attracting the attention of the zombies wandering around.

Before he left, Ling Yichen glanced at the few houses next door. There were some people standing there, staring at him and his sister. They were even recording them.

This group of people had been recording when he and the Hidden Shadow Spider killed the zombies. They were not afraid that the mutant birds would suddenly fly over and take their lives. Reality proved that their luck was not bad. There were indeed no mutant creatures that could fly to attack them.

Ling Yichen did not mind. If they wanted to record them, so be it. Could it be that he did not need to do anything after being watched by them?

However, what he did not know was that there was already an uproar in the group chat.

Furthermore the cause of this matter was precisely because someone had released the video of him.
