Chapter 217 The Abandoned Cannon Fodder Beauty in the Apocalypse (6)
Shen Chumo agreed to team up with Ying Chu precisely because of this idea; relying on herself alone was ultimately not safe.
Although she is now very strong and can attack with talismans, she still does not have any supernatural abilities.
The superpowered individuals in this post-apocalyptic world are incredibly powerful. The text describes how, if those superpowered individuals reach level nine in the later stages, they can destroy a building with a single punch.
Those with natural abilities and special abilities are even more difficult to guard against.
Seeing Shen Chumo's confident demeanor, the five exchanged glances and fell into deep thought.
Qi Yaotian pushed up his glasses. "This matter is of great importance. I'd like to ask you a few more questions."
His gaze, peering through his glasses, was fixed on Shen Chumo, his eyes filled with caution and inquiry.
“Okay.” Shen Chumo nodded calmly.
"First, you say you know the password to that supply depot, but where did you get it? Such confidential information wouldn't be easily leaked; we need to ensure the reliability of its source."
"Secondly, since this supply depot belongs to the military, why doesn't the military send people to take the contents away, but instead just leaves it there unattended?"
Qi Yaotian's gaze was sharp as an eagle's, staring intently at Shen Chumo, not missing a single subtle expression on her face.
"The source of the password is a secret of mine, and I cannot tell you that. As for the second question," Shen Chumo crossed her arms.
He explained, "As far as I know, the apocalypse broke out too suddenly, and the military's forces were also severely dispersed."
At that time, most of the troops were deployed to maintain order in major cities and to carry out rescue operations.
This supply depot was located in a relatively remote area, and in the early stages of the chaos, communication was disrupted and information was not transmitted smoothly, which disrupted many resource allocation plans.
In addition, the rapid spread of zombies and the blockade of surrounding transportation routes have made it even more difficult to send people to transfer supplies.
Moreover, the existence of this supply depot was rather hidden, and without clear instructions and sufficient manpower, it could easily have been temporarily forgotten amidst the chaos.
"I can tell you, now is the best time to go. I'm not the only one who knows about this supply depot; they're just not in a hurry to retrieve the supplies because they have a coded door."
Once they settle down, they'll definitely start acquiring those supplies immediately. At that point, it will be much harder for us to get a share.
Shen Chumo shifted her gaze from Qi Yaotian, scanned the crowd, and continued, "I understand your concerns; after all, this is a risky decision."
But in the end times, risk and opportunity always coexist.
If we can successfully acquire the supplies in this base, especially the weaponry, we will have a stronger ability to protect ourselves in this dangerous world and will be better able to find other resources for survival.
Wu Chong scratched his head, hesitated, and raised his hand. "I have a question."
"There are so many supply depots, how much can just a few of us move?"
Ying Chu tapped the table lightly with his well-defined fingers, the rhythmic tapping sound particularly clear in the quiet room.
"If this news is confirmed to be true, I can go and get two trucks first."
"No need to bother."
Shen Chumo's lips curled up slightly. She reached out and put the bowl on the table into her spatial storage. The bowl seemed to disappear into thin air, vanishing without a trace in an instant.
Then, with a gentle wave of her hand, the bowl reappeared perfectly intact on the table, as if it had never left.
After doing all this, Shen Chumo raised the corners of her mouth and said, "I have spatial abilities."
Ying Chu raised an eyebrow, a clear smile playing on his lips. "Mo Mo, you really have surprised me... so much."
Li Ge jumped up from his seat, excitedly shouting, "Wow! Chu Mo, you actually have spatial abilities! That's amazing! Does that mean we can free our hands?"
Who understands? Every trip is like moving house. Every time we come across supplies, we have to pick and choose, and we have to give up some less important items because the car simply can't fit them all.
However, if spatial abilities exist, many things become much less convenient.
In comparison, Qi Yaotian remained relatively calm, asking, "How much space do you have?"
The space in the jade ring was originally only a dozen square meters, but in the previous world they unexpectedly obtained a top-grade jade containing spatial power.
Shen Qianyu helped her re-refine the jade ring and the jade together, and now the space in the jade ring is about one hundred square meters.
She has already used about 20 square meters of it.
Shen Chumo replied truthfully, "It's not too big, it's still a few dozen square meters."
Although the space is a bit small now, it will be more than enough once she gets the original owner's jade pendant back from Su Yao.
"Vote now. Raise your hand if you're willing to go," Ying Chu said.
Li Ge was the first to raise his hand, "I want to go. I can never have too many supplies."
As Li Ge raised his hand, the rest of the people followed suit. They were originally together, so they would naturally leave together.
"Unanimously approved. In that case, let's pack up and prepare to send it to H City tomorrow."
The food on the table had been completely eaten, and Li Ge began to clean it up on his own initiative.
Shen Chumo wanted to step forward to help, but Li Ge stopped her, flashing a set of white teeth.
"No need, Chu Mo. I have water-based abilities, and I'm the only one here who can wash the dishes. Just leave it to me."
Shen Chumo didn't stand on ceremony, a smile playing on her lips, "Then thank you for your trouble. I'll cook tomorrow."
Li Ge looked at Shen Chumo's smiling face, his earlobes turning slightly red. He touched his nose.
"Then I'll assist you tomorrow."
Ying Chu sat lazily on the sofa, his posture relaxed. He had a cigarette in his mouth and squinted as he watched the two chatting happily.
Li Ge suddenly felt a chill down his spine. He instinctively stopped talking and turned his head slightly, but found nothing unusual.
After Shen Chumo went upstairs, Qi Yaotian sat down next to Ying Chu and lowered his voice, saying, "Ah Chu, this Shen Chumo has a mysterious background. Do you really believe her?"
Ying Chu understood Qi Yaotian's meaning. He felt that Shen Chumo was using them. She just happened to be on that road, just happened to know there was a supply depot nearby, just happened to know the password, and just happened to have spatial abilities.
With so many coincidences combined, it's no longer a coincidence, but rather a premeditated act.
Upon hearing this, Ying Chu did not respond immediately. He simply took a slow drag of his cigarette, the tip of which instantly glowed bright red. Then, he slowly exhaled a thick cloud of smoke, which spread between the two of them, blurring their vision.
"Yao Tian, I was the one who invited her first, do you understand?"
