Jiang Yue's Little Thoughts

That night, Xiao Jun didn't dare to fall into deep sleep. In case any zombie that lost its way wandered in, he happened to be in deep sleep then, he might just become a wronged ghost.

In the hotel, Wan Qianya was also tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. She had gotten used to having Xiao Jun by her side, which gave her a sense of security in this doomsday world.

In the winter days, it turned dark early and dawned late.

It wasn't until after 7 am that Xiao Jun walked out from the warehouse.

If you wonder how Xiao Jun knew it was past 7 am, there were plenty of new mobile phones in the mall warehouse, he just picked one up at random and knew the time.

After killing all the zombies on the first floor of the mall, he not only avenged the dread from last night, but also earned several first-order variant crystals, making a blood profit.

There were more and more zombies on the road too. Today was the sixth day since the zombie appearance. The day after tomorrow, there would no longer be sudden zombie rain at midnight. Likewise, the air-dropped supplies would also stop.

In his previous life, after the zombie rain stopped, the humans were overjoyed, thinking that as long as no more new zombies appeared, they would be able to kill them all eventually.

But then they realized after the air-drops also stopped that they fell into panic again. The air-dropped supplies were the hope for human survival after all.

However...

In about half a month later, which was one month into the doomsday, zombie rain and air-dropped boxes appeared in the sky again.

The next day, the survivors discovered a large number of second-order zombies.

Afterwards, this kind of situation occurred a total of six times. Each time it ended, there would be higher-level zombies.

Before Xiao Jun died in his previous life, the highest-level zombie he discovered had reached the eighth order, while the strongest known person in Future City was only seventh-order.

Fortunately, that eighth-order zombie was quite far from Future City, and for some reason, it just guarded its own territory.

Before Xiao Jun died in his previous life, that eighth-order zombie had never come to Future City.

These were still quite far away from the present Xiao Jun. He just wanted to get back to the hotel quickly now. After being away for a night, he hoped Wan Qianya was alright.

As for his other female students, they were not so important to Xiao Jun for the time being. If they were gone, he could find more, no big deal.

When Xiao Jun hurried back to the hotel, Wan Qianya was sitting on the sofa in a daze. She didn't get good sleep all night, with somewhat red eyes. Hearing the sound of the door opening, she didn't even lift her head, thinking it was Jiang Yue or Li Jingyin.

"What's the matter? You look so listless."

The familiar voice floated into her ears. Wan Qianya looked up happily.

Xiao Jun, he had come back.

Tears flowed down uncontrollably like a cut kite string. Wan Qianya threw herself into Xiao Jun's arms, sobbing as she said,

"Why didn't you...come back...all night..."

Xiao Jun gently patted her back with his left hand while his right arm held her tightly.

"I ran into a little situation, but everything's resolved now."

He wouldn't tell anyone for the time being about the superpower talent, not even Wan Qianya.

The movement also alarmed Jiang Yue and Li Jingyin in the room. As they opened the door, they saw Wan Qianya crying in Xiao Jun's arms. In over two years of dormitory life together, this was the first time they saw Wan Qianya cry. She used to be the famous Ice Beauty on campus.

But still, they were happy that Xiao Jun was back. In the doomsday world, having a strong enough man who also seemed decent was comforting.

Jiang Yue was not some young girl. She liked reading doomsday genre novels before, and although exaggerated, she felt that human nature would only become more exaggerated if doomsday really arrived.

From the beginning when Xiao Jun saw her and Li Jingyin, there was never any strange desire in his eyes. Even later when he brought dozens of young women, he didn't make any extra moves.

She wouldn't rule out Xiao Jun having some indecent behavior in the future, but Jiang Yue believed that by then, she would also have built some capacity to fight back.

Jiang Yue thought to herself with her head lowered. Then she lifted her head and glanced at Xiao Jun again, and by chance, Xiao Jun's eyes also looked over.

Their sights met in midair. Xiao Jun smiled meaningfully then lowered his head to look at Wan Qianya in his arms again.

【What was that smile supposed to mean? I acted perfectly normal, he must just be smiling normally.】

But she didn't notice the subtle smile at the corner of Xiao Jun's mouth after he lowered his head.

After crying in Xiao Jun's arms for a while, Wan Qianya finally remembered that there were two other people in the room.

Under the teasing looks from her two roommates, Wan Qianya's pretty face turned red. She quickly wiped her tears and left Xiao Jun's embrace.

"Do you still have energy to go out with them today?"

"Yes I do!"

As a first-order variant, an overnight lack of sleep wouldn't affect her too much. Besides, Wan Qianya did sleep, just not too well.

"Then continue going out with them today, focusing on the air-dropped supplies.

The day after tomorrow, the source of air-dropped supplies will temporarily stop, so we must seize the time to find more in these two days."

Xiao Jun had already envisioned the scenes afterwards of large numbers of survivors searching all over the city for air-dropped supplies.

Without replenished zombies, humans would prevail in Star City no matter how many were left, killing them off would just be a matter of time.

"I'll take them out first then. Here's the information I gathered yesterday, left on the table." Jiang Yue walked over and placed a notebook on the table.

"Okay, go ahead."

Knowing Xiao Jun was fine, Wan Qianya also resumed her original temperament, with the aura of a haughty goddess. She only became an obedient girl in front of Xiao Jun.

Hm, Jiang Yue seemed to have her own ideas.

Also, Xiao Jun noticed something. Apart from that first meeting when Wan Qianya asked them to call her Sister Jun, she didn't seem to have called him that anymore. Yet Li Jingyin called him quite intimately.

Shaking his head to dispel these thoughts, it was fine if Jiang Yue showed no anomalies, but if she took initiative inwardly, he might have to ruthlessly crush the blossoming flower.

Roughly flipping through the notebook, they found a total of six air-dropped supplies yesterday, gaining 74 first-order variant crystals with no casualties.

There was power in numbers indeed, nothing wrong with that.

And this was just a group of ordinary humans, females at that.

Thinking this way, how many air-drops must that survivor group obtain daily in order to establish Future City later on? No wonder they could do so in the later period.

The first-order crystals must be inside Wan Qianya's Spatial Equipment without even thinking about it. He should have let Wan Qianya advance to second-order before going out, knowing they got so many yesterday.

He still had 41 crystals himself too from killing quite some zombies yesterday.

Thinking that they just went out, Xiao Jun hurriedly chased after them.

At this time, they were clearing zombies in the lobby. Wan Qianya didn't make a move, instead helping command them from the side, jumping in whenever somewhere got dangerous.

He didn't know how Jiang Yue trained them, but this group of seemingly weak women yesterday could now battle zombies without fear.

Although they still lacked coordination, the effect was pretty good.

"Qianya."

Seeing the battle winding down, Xiao Jun beckoned Wan Qianya over.

"Brother Jun, why did you come down?"

The other female students also looked over. Many revealed looks of adoration upon seeing Xiao Jun, but they dimmed again when spotting Wan Qianya next to him.

"I have 41 crystals here, level up before going out."

Without pretense, Wan Qianya acknowledged that although the previous 74 crystals were obtained together, she didn't feel the need to get approval from everyone, Xiao Jun's consent was enough.

"From today onwards, you can directly use crystals gained to level up, according to each person's contribution decided by Jiang Yue."

Xiao Jun's words excited the young women.

Wasn't Wan Qianya powerful precisely because she was a first-order variant? Now they had the chance too, wouldn't that mean they could be equally amazing?

"Jiang Yue, there are also two steel knives and a dagger here, distribute them."

Xiao Jun called Jiang Yue over again and took out the weapons he had found yesterday to hand over to her.

"From now on, you can distribute the weapons you obtain among yourselves, but you must record all the data, understand?"

Jiang Yue nodded.

Since Xiao Jun was willing to do this, it showed his trust in her, and it also indirectly increased everyone's chances of survival. Jiang Yue was filled with gratitude.

After finishing all the instructions, Wan Qianya also happened to finish leveling up, becoming a second-order variant, moreover one who had taken the Mutation Compound, so now Xiao Jun could rest assured about her safety as well.

"Work hard."

Giving encouragement to everyone, Xiao Jun turned around and went upstairs to catch up on some sleep he hadn't gotten the night before.
