Chapter 69: The Scattered Corpses

While Tan Wei, Ji Yang and Xiu Wu were still making eye contact, Zhu Lin had already finished the simple cloak. She put down the needle, stood up, and put on the cloak. Touching the cloak, she was satisfied that the ice silk fabric felt cool and smooth to the touch, and could completely protect the skin from the hot temperature.

Tan Wei saw Zhu Lin picking up the scissors on the low table and trying to cut the cloak short, so he quickly stopped her.

"Xiao Lin, don’t!"

Startled by Tan Wei’s sudden shout, Zhu Lin stopped her hand, and then looked at him with questioning eyes.

"Don’t cut it. Can you sell me this cloak instead?" Tan Wei asked as he looked at Zhu Lin expectantly.

Hearing his request, Zhu Lin looked at the cloak that was too long for her, and at Tan Wei who was taller than her. A few seconds later, she handed him the cloak and calmly said, "Here, you can have it."

As soon as she said this, Tan Wei grabbed the cloak from her, then looked at Ji Yang, and happily said, "Lao Yang, help me pay Xiao Lin."

Ji Yang rolled his eyes at him, and then took out a backpack containing Tan Wei’s crystal nucleus from his space. He threw the heavy backpack to Tan Wei, then looked at Zhu Lin, and asked, "Xiao Lin, can I buy one from you too?"

Before Zhu Lin could answer Ji Yang’s question, Tan Wei put a pile of first rank crystal nucleus in front of her, and said, "Xiao Lin, I only have this much first rank crystal nucleus at the moment. I will give you more when I can go out to hunt zombies."

When Tu Tu and Zhu Lin saw the number of first rank crystal nucleus in front of them, they couldn’t help but lament on how poor they were. While Zhu Lin was still staring at the crystal nucleus, Ji Yang had already taken out Xiu Wu’s backpack and handed it to him.

The two of them then took out a lot of crystal nucleus from their backpacks and put them in front of Zhu Lin. Xiu Wu even gave her a few second rank crystal nucleus that he had collected. With this move, he gave her almost all the wealth he had collected over the past three months.

"Give me one too." Xiu Wu said after returning the almost empty backpack to Ji Yang.

Holding Xiu Wu’s backpack that felt light, Ji Yang glanced at him and sighed. Indeed, people who fall in love are crazy. He believed that if Zhu Lin wanted Xiu Wu to sell his liver at this moment, he would do it without even batting an eye.

Looking at the bunch of crystal nucleus in front of her, Zhu Lin felt delighted. She smiled at them and said, "No problem. I will make it immediately. Please wait a moment."

She didn’t waste any more time, took out three pieces of ice silk cloth, and began to sew cloaks for Xiu Wu, Ji Yang and herself. She even sewed one for Tu Tu from the remaining ice silk cloth.

Zhu Lin also embroidered a few defensive formations on Xiu Wu’s cloak, because Xiu Wu gave her a lot of second rank crystal nucleus. Two hours later, each of them had put on the same ice-blue color cloaks, including Tu Tu.

Looking at the super cute rabbit, Tan Wei felt itchy in his heart. He picked up the rabbit from the low table, then hugged the rabbit gently, and stroked the rabbit from time to time. Seeing his infatuated look, Ji Yang shook his head helplessly.

Standing in the middle of the living room, Xiu Wu glanced at his watch and said, "It’s only ten o’clock in the morning, but it feels hotter than yesterday."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked out the window and fell into silence. If the temperature continues to rise, it will not be long before the temperature reaches the highest temperature in human history.

After a long silence, Ji Yang said, "Since we have new cloaks today, how about we try the effect by going out?"

After listening to what he said, everyone agreed with him. No matter how hot the temperature is, they still need to go out to collect more materials and crystal nucleus, and increase their rank. Otherwise, when higher rank zombies appear, they will be helpless.

In addition, they also want to capture some mutant beasts and mutant plants after learning that the meat is edible, and other parts of mutant beasts and mutant plants can be made into equipment. They need to gather more information before they can share it with the base.

After making their preparations, the four of them plus a rabbit left Zhu Lin’s apartment in high spirits. When they walked out from the apartment building, the streets were deserted. When they walked towards the entrance gate of the second ring area, they only met a few supernatural beings walking very fast with umbrellas.

Walking under the scorching sun while wearing the cloak, Tan Wei said, "This is amazing! After wearing this cloak, I don’t feel hot at all. Besides, the hood can also protect our face and skin from sunburn. This is very convenient."

Not long after, they had arrived at the entrance gate of the second ring area. When they walked through the gate, they were very surprised by the situation in the outer ring area.

It has only been a few days since the last time they walked through this area, and the situation is already like heaven and earth. Looking at the scattered corpses on the street and smelling the pungent smell in the air, Zhu Lin frowned slightly.

She lowered her eyes and thought: ’The situation here is really bad. If no one takes care of these corpses, plague could happen anytime. If that were to happen, then humanity would have another bigger problem than zombies or mutants. I wonder why the base didn’t do anything about this problem.’
