Just like the other survivors monitoring Su Ling and her group, Qi Ren had no intention of joining them to fight the zombies.
He was just waiting for Su Ling and the others to clear out the troublesome zombies, clean up the mess, and then he would make his appearance.
At the very least, he would pretend to run into them by chance, greet them, and try to get close.
With a bit of effort, he could join their ranks.
Once he joined their team, he wouldn't have to worry about food and shelter. He would be completely fine.
After the fight they were having today, and after scavenging the shops along the street, they would have no shortage of supplies.
As for him, he would conserve his energy, slack off a bit, and take advantage of the situation.
He could see that Su Ling and her group were in very good condition, and he guessed their mobile fortress was packed with abundant supplies.
Otherwise, they wouldn't all be so plump and rosy.
Their spirit and condition were something people like him, struggling to survive in the apocalypse, couldn't compare to.
If he could eat steaming braised pork, a whole chicken pot, spicy boiled fish, or roast chicken for dinner tonight...
Just thinking about it made Qi Ren's mouth water, and he wished his bread and milk could transform into the food he was imagining.
Even though he thought this, he knew it was unrealistic.
It had been a week since the apocalypse, and the kind of delicacies he imagined were basically impossible to achieve.
Right now, if he could just eat a bag of chicken legs or pig trotters, he would already feel very happy and touched.
Ideally, while gnawing on chicken legs or pig trotters, he would be served a steaming bowl of instant noodles with two fried eggs and a few slices of ham sausage.
And if possible, a can of ice-cold beer.
Wow, Qi Ren couldn't think about it any further. He was already starting to anticipate it.
While Qi Ren was lost in his boundless fantasies and expectations, Su Ling's zombie-slaying operation was still ongoing and intense.
As time passed, the zombies seemed endless, and Su Ling and her group's powers and stamina were gradually depleting to their limit.
Su Ling used her backpack to conceal and take out pre-packed spatial water. She first handed it to Gu Shangse, "Drink this."
After handing it over, she blocked a zombie attack for Gu Shangse.
At this critical moment, Gu Shangse didn't waste any words. He took the water, twisted off the cap, and drank it.
As he drank the water, he felt a warm current flow through his body, which had been exhausted by his powers and stamina.
Wherever the warm current passed, his body was cleansed and became light and comfortable.
The heavy feeling and weakness vanished, and he instantly felt fully revived.
After giving the water to Gu Shangse, Su Ling then gave it to Jiang Jiang and the others.
Once everyone had drunk the water and was fully revived, Su Ling finally stopped and stood behind them to drink.
As the water went down, her body felt full, instantly imbued with immense strength and boundless explosive power.
They didn't need to ask; they knew that the water Su Ling gave them, which could rapidly restore their stamina, must be a treasure from her personal space.
It was nearing noon, and the sun was very strong.
The street where Su Ling and her group were located was shaded by trees, blocking some of the intense light and preventing direct sunlight.
However, even so, due to their high-intensity physical exertion, everyone was sweating profusely, with sweat dripping from head to toe.
The night market was a connection of several streets, with a massive number of zombies. They couldn't be killed in a short amount of time.
Furthermore, they hadn't collected any crystal cores after killing so many zombies. This was a huge undertaking.
If they continued to drag this out, they would be finished before the zombies were all killed.
Su Ling glanced at the zombies at the entrance to another street. She withdrew her gaze and looked at Jiang Jiang, "Jiang Jiang, focus your psychic powers on the zombies in that street and make them fight amongst themselves."
After instructing Jiang Jiang, Su Ling looked at "Shouzi" (Thin Guy) and said, "Those cars, go and move them to block the road."
