Chapter 36: Reunion with Little Friends (3)
“Heh heh heh…” The scarred man standing at the door chuckled until then. But after just two chuckles, a “bang” came from downstairs, and even the second floor shook.
Lu Weiyi always used his mental power to observe his surroundings when he went out alone. Coupled with the quiet street, separated only by a road, Dean’s voice, although not loud, was clear enough for him to hear. He quickly sent out his mental power.
Across the street were seven or eight shops. Lu Weiyi hadn’t paid attention at first, but now looking closely, he noticed that all the doors in that row were sealed by an earthen wall. This was clearly the work of an earth-type ability user.
Being able to do this much with an ability that had just appeared was quite a talent.
Thinking this, Lu Weiyi drove his car towards the earthen door of the small supermarket at the very end.
The ability wasn’t strong enough; the earthen wall was only one layer. Human strength couldn’t break it, but the car had no problem. After one impact, the earthen wall collapsed with a crash, revealing a small supermarket of about a hundred square meters inside, quite well-stocked.
Dean naturally heard the commotion downstairs. He froze for a moment, then instantly jumped up and shouted Lu Weiyi’s name as he rushed towards the door. At the same time, Lu Weiyi had already reached the second floor.
The scarred man blocking the doorway grabbed Dean’s hair and violently dragged him back. At the same time, he chuckled and took out a pistol, pointing it in Lu Weiyi’s direction in Dean’s startled gaze.
“Gun!” Dean shouted.
“Bang!”
Facing several burly men, with a hostage in their hands, Lu Weiyi alone had no intention of reasoning with them. While swinging his watermelon knife towards the nearest man, the little green branch and his mental power had already launched a sneak attack towards the scarred man. When Dean warned about the gun, Lu Weiyi was indeed surprised. He quickly set up a mental barrier around himself and rolled on the spot. The bullet grazed his back, and the sneak attack failed.
Seeing that his shot missed, the scarred man became serious. He grabbed Dean and directly threw him into the bedroom, while preparing to shoot Lu Weiyi again. This time, prepared, Lu Weiyi directly used his invisible mental power to pierce his brain.
This was at least a B-level ability, but fortunately, his current mastery of mental power was enough to barely cope.
The scarred man’s eyes widened, his finger still on the trigger. He fell straight backward, two streams of blood slowly flowing from his nostrils, and with a “bang,” a cloud of dust erupted.
The air was silent for a while, until Lu Weiyi turned his head to look to the side. The remaining few men simultaneously took a step back, looking at Lu Weiyi warily.
They had no intention of attacking. Lu Weiyi wasn’t necessarily trying to kill them either. He covered himself with a layer of mental power and walked towards the bedroom. Dean had been thrown with all the scarred man’s strength, and his head had directly hit a cabinet, knocking him unconscious.
Lu Weiyi helped him up and saw a small, not very serious cut on the back of his head. He breathed a sigh of relief and looked again at the group of people standing silently outside.
“This place is mine now,” Lu Weiyi said very calmly, pointing to the stairs. “You guys leave.”
Looting supplies was something seen every day in the apocalypse, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp. Moreover, the few people opposite didn’t look like good people at all.
“We’re leaving, we’re leaving…” Seeming not to have expected that they could leave, the few almost pushed and shoved each other as they ran out.
Lu Weiyi followed behind them, watching them get into the few cars parked on the roadside not far away and quickly drive away. He then got back into his car and rammed the door shut against the broken entrance, blocking any zombies that might come over, and happily went to collect his spoils.
Lu Weiyi took several large bags and filled them with various instant foods and drinks from the supermarket, storing the rest directly into his space. He then used his mental power to clean out the shops on both sides that the scarred man had occupied.
A pharmacy, a liquor and tobacco store, two restaurants, a cake shop, a mobile phone store, and a convenience store at the very end.
Although he felt he didn’t lack anything, spoils of war had a faint taste of glory, so when the two stores at the very end were beyond his mental power range, Lu Weiyi patiently walked a little further to collect them.
After collecting everything, Lu Weiyi filled the trunk and passenger seat with the packed bags. He then ran upstairs and carried the unconscious Dean and Antonio to the car, casually pocketing the scarred man’s pistol before driving back.
