?74: Chapter 74: Mummified Corpse 74: Chapter 74: Mummified Corpse Ao!

Suddenly, a beastly roar erupted as a Butcher charged at Su Mo and his team, iron hook in hand.

“Watch out for the Butcher!”

Zhou Qian’s heart leaped.

Su Mo raised his firearm and unleashed a barrage of shots at the Butcher’s head!

Bang, bang!

Two shots obliterated the fleshy growths on its face, exposing its skull, followed by three more that decisively shattered its skull.

The rotund Butcher stumbled and crashed heavily onto the ground.

It hadn’t caused them any real damage.

“Awesome!

That’s Su Mo for you.”

“So cool!”

…

Qin Wang and the others watched Su Mo’s swift and decisive combat and couldn’t help feeling their blood boil and they excitedly shouted.

“Zinuo, are the other Mecha Drivers in our team this badass?”

Zhou Qian watched Su Mo’s smooth moves, her throat going dry as she asked.

“You’re well aware of our group’s Mecha Drivers’ skills.

They could kill a Butcher, but to do it so effortlessly, with just a few shots?

Forget it.

I reckon even the Mecha Drivers from Team 1 can’t match Su Mo’s strength,” Lin Zinuo confidently affirmed.

Zhou Qian immediately lowered her voice and said to Zinuo, “Then we need to be careful, so we don’t get poached by Team 1.

Don’t forget, there’s no compensation for poaching within the same Legion.”

“I got it.”

Lin Zinuo felt a bit uneasy upon hearing Zhou Qian’s words.

However, as they reached the edge of the town, the leading Mecha suddenly stopped.

The cockpit opened, and Su Mo flipped out from above.

“Su Mo, why did you stop the Mecha?”

Zhou Qian and the others were also taken aback.

“Out of fuel.”

Su Mo deftly swapped the magazine in his QBZ-171.

“Ah, what do we do now?

The Zombies are coming this way.”

Zhou Qian and the others were dumbfounded.

“Follow me.

We shake them off, or we’ll just keep killing more and more.”

Having said that, Su Mo ran towards the side.

Lin Zinuo and the others were speechless and hurried after him.

Su Mo had hoped that if the Mecha had just a bit more fuel, they could have charged straight into battle and avoided all this trouble, but it wasn’t to be.

Soon after, Su Mo and about a dozen people appeared in a narrow alley.

Sticking close to the wall, Su Mo peered out onto the street.

The quiet street was filled with Zombies, wandering in search of food.

“Where do we go now?”

Lin Zinuo asked Su Mo in a low voice.

“Head to the public transportation hub.

There might be some fuel there, and we might be able to get the Mecha up and running again,” Su Mo shared his thoughts.

“Don’t get your hopes up on that,” Lin Zinuo instantly quashed Su Mo’s fantasy.

“Mecha don’t use regular fuel; they require a military-grade special synthetic blend.

Normally only supply bases or special facilities will have it.”

After a moment of silence, Su Mo spoke, “In that case, let’s search the nearby buildings.

Maybe we can find some supplies or a map to ascertain our location.”

“Yeah.”

Lin Zinuo nodded.

Then, seizing an opportunity, Su Mo led Lin Zinuo and the others across to the opposite street and quickly entered a two-story house.

Once inside, Zhou Qian immediately closed the door.

Gun in hand, Su Mo checked every room and corner to ensure there were no Zombies or monsters hiding inside.

After confirming the safety, Lin Zinuo turned to Qin Wang and the rest and said,

“You guys search the house carefully, see if there’s anything useful, okay?”

“Okay,”

Qin Wang and the other lifestyle players immediately scattered and began rummaging through boxes and cabinets.

It turned out that every one of the lifestyle players in the Dawn Guild was adept at their task; before long, everything valuable inside the house had been found.

A pile of gold and silver jewelry, canned food, and some trinkets.

“Sister Zinuo, that’s all there is, nothing else.”

Qin Wang shook his head as he spoke.

“That’s to be expected.

If we could find something good so easily, that would be really strange,”

Lin Zinuo didn’t show any signs of annoyance or disappointment.

“No problem, we’ll go through the back door.

There are many more houses behind.”

Su Mo stood beside the window next to the back door, looking out.

The buildings in the town were different from city buildings, as cities have apartment blocks housing many residents.

Here, almost every household is a separate dwelling, and they are all clustered together.

“Hmm, let’s do that then, keep searching!”

Lin Zinuo agreed and gave the order.

Several hours later, Su Mo and his group were hiding in a very ordinary house.

They were tallying the loot from their search.

Without a count, they wouldn’t have known, but after tallying, they were shocked – piles of gold and silver jewelry.

“It’s incredible.

This town doesn’t look like much, but how can every household be so wealthy?”

Zhou Qian was amazed as she spoke.

“These pieces of gold and silver jewelry.

I will convert them all into gold points and silver points.

When this mission is over, I will tally all the earnings and distribute them according to our shares to everyone, whether they are alive or dead.

Consider it an extra subsidy.

Do you have any objections?”

Lin Zinuo said to everyone.

Normally, these earnings should be turned over to the guild.

However, the guild also had an unspoken rule that generally, small rewards are divided privately, as a subsidy.

“Sister Zinuo’s word is final,”

Zhou Qian chimed in with a smile.

“Alright, then it’s settled.

We’ll stop searching for today and rest here.”

After Lin Zinuo spoke, she converted all the gold and silver jewelry into gold points and silver points.

“Great!”

Zhou Qian and the others echoed in agreement.

“Since we’re staying here, I’ll do a round of reconnaissance to ensure there’s no danger,”

After some thought, Su Mo made the suggestion.

“Okay, take this gun.

It’ll be less of a burden,”

Lin Zinuo took off a maxin9 collector’s edition integrated silencer pistol from her waist and tossed it to Su Mo.

Su Mo caught the pistol and examined it; it looked high-tech and felt great in his hand.

“Mm,”

With the silencer pistol in hand, Su Mo left.

“Not bad, isn’t that your favorite pistol?

You’re really willing to part with it.”

Zhou Qian teased Lin Zinuo with a nudging gesture.

Lin Zinuo cast a side glance at Zhou Qian and responded, “I’m only lending it to him for a bit.

We can’t have him face an enemy with a rifle and attract a horde of zombies.

How would we rest then?”

“Alright, alright, you’re right,”

Zhou Qian answered with a laugh.

Thump thump~~

A series of hasty steps descending the stairs were accompanied by a shout.

“Sister Zinuo.”

“What’s the matter?”

Zinuo looked up in confusion at the sister who was in a fluster.

“We found a mummy in the attic,”

The sister reported with a bit of panic.

“Let’s go take a look,”

Lin Zinuo frowned slightly and made her way upstairs; mummies were rare these days, as most corpses had mutated.
