Zombie Apocalypse: Reborn With A Farming Space-Chapter 189: Exchanging Supplies ( 1 )
When they heard Jin Xuyan's words, one of the survivors raised her hand and said, "C-Comrade, our brothers, husbands, and fathers were taken away by a group of men."
After she said that, a young boy nodded and added, "They weren't from our farm and came suddenly. They not only robbed us, but they also took away my sister and brother-in-law."
Hearing this, Jiao Lizhi asked, "Besides that group, was there anyone else?"
The moment she asked this, the Phantom Team members understood she was referring to the group they had seen hiding near the entrance of the farm.
The young boy shook his head and replied, "I don't know."
After thinking for a moment, he added, "But the farm's owner gathered everyone before to look for a safer place, before that group of men came. My sister and brother-in-law said it was safer to stay home and wait for the rescue team. So, we didn't go with them."
Jiao Lizhi looked at the survivors and said, "Rather than waiting for the government to send people to rescue you, it's better to rely on yourselves."
"Sister, what do you mean by that?" the young boy asked.
"Our current situation isn't just happening in this area—it's a global apocalypse," Jiao Lizhi replied.
When everyone heard her words, they were shocked and began murmuring in panic.
They had always thought this was a temporary crisis, and that they would return to their previous lives once the government arrived to rescue them. But if this situation were global...what should they do then?
Jiao Lizhi waited a moment before continuing, "Those monsters are zombies, and they act purely on instinct. They are sensitive to sound and scent. So if you get close to them or make a loud noise, they will detect you immediately."
"When ordinary people are wounded by zombies—even just a small cut—they will be infected. Aside from that, there is a chance of infection through digestion, such as contaminated food or water. Once you are infected, the mortality rate is as high as 99%."
As she finished speaking, the survivors' faces turned pale. Most of them had already experienced the horror of being nearly killed by their loved ones. Some had even been forced to kill family members who had turned into zombies.
After a long silence, one of them asked, "Comrade, is there any chance of survival after infection?"
Jiao Lizhi nodded and replied, "If your immunity is strong, you might survive. But the chance is only 1%. And if you do survive, there is a 0.01% chance you will awaken an ability."
As she spoke, she opened her palm, and a ball of water suddenly appeared out of thin air, floating above her hand.
When they saw this, their eyes widened in amazement. Some, parched and weak, couldn't help but lick their chapped lips as their gazes were glued to the ball of water.
Seeing this, Jin Xuyan said, "Xiao Qi, give them some water."
At his command, Xiao Qi nodded and took out several boxes of bottled water from his space, distributing one to each person. As for food, they would wait for their captain's decision.
"Let's go to the warehouse first," Jin Xuyan said.
They followed him into the warehouse on the chicken farm. As soon as they entered, they wrinkled their noses at the strange smell lingering in the air.
Seeing that they had finally returned, the survivors already inside breathed a sigh of relief. They had waited for hours without knowing what had happened to the young couple, but fortunately, they came back alive.
The Phantom Team members weren't surprised by the survivors' condition. After seeing so many people in similar states, they had become somewhat numb.
Even so, their eyes darkened when they saw the three women's condition. They also noticed the black ashes on the ground and understood that their captain must have killed something or someone.
Jiao Lizhi walked over to Xiao Qi and asked, "Xiao Qi, do you have women's clothes?"
Hearing this, Xiao Qi nodded and replied, "Sister-in-law, I collected some at the factory before. How many sets do you want?"
"Give me three sets of T-shirts and pants. Also… do you have women's underwear?" she asked.
At first, Xiao Qi nodded. But when he heard the second part of her sentence, his eyes widened, and a blush crept onto his cheeks.
He opened and closed his mouth several times before replying in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, I'm not a pervert. How could I have women's underwear?"
Jiao Lizhi glanced at Jin Xuyan. He had given her several pairs of underwear before—did that mean he was a pervert?
Noticing her look, Jin Xuyan smiled and replied calmly, "Ah Zhi, I'm different. I'm your man—it's only natural for me to prepare things for you."
The moment they heard his words, the Phantom Team members looked at him speechlessly. Only their captain could say something like that with such confidence. His skin was indeed thick!
Jiao Lizhi didn't want to continue the topic. So, she turned to Xiao Qi and said, "Then just give me the clothes."
Xiao Qi quickly handed her the clothes and asked, "Sister-in-law, do you need anything else?"
Jiao Lizhi nodded and said, "Give the survivors some food. When we find a survivor camp, we will let them stay there and part ways."
"Understood!" Xiao Qi replied and left to carry out the task.
Holding the clothes, Jiao Lizhi discreetly took out three sets of women's underwear from her space, concealing them beneath the clothes so no one would notice.
Standing in front of the elderly couple, she said, "Here, help your daughter get dressed."
The old couple accepted the clothes and bowed to her. "Thank you, benefactor."
"I'm not a good person, and I'm not your benefactor. So don't call me that."
After saying that, she walked away and handed the clothes to the other women.
Not long after, they heard a series of footsteps outside. With Qin Luzi and Shen Jinzhe standing guard outside, no one could approach unnoticed. So, they didn't panic and continued with their own task.
