The host is dedicated to her career

Chapter 196 Survival in the End Times ([-])

After the dinner that day, neither Xu Muqing nor Yan Xiuran appeared again, and they seemed to be strangers to each other and had no enmity.

In a flash, more than two months passed, and the days were considered peaceful.

It's just that with the passage of time, human beings have finally realized from waiting for rescue that the once civilized world is no longer there, and now all that remains is the arrogance for survival and support for the supernatural beings.

The supplies in City S are simply not enough to support the survival of 10 people in Base S, and the lack of supplies has become the biggest crisis for mankind.

After finishing the mission and returning to the East District, the ordinary people who could still stare at the passers-by with vicious and greedy eyes before, are now all skinny, and their eyes are full of numbness and lifelessness.

Shen Changming didn't have the slightest sympathy for these poor people. She led Xu Baisheng back to 304, and saw a child who looked like a mummy lying at the door.

Her thin lips were tightly pressed, Shen Changming felt a little headache, and she kept on stepping.

The child was also self-conscious. When the owner of 304 came home, he consciously stepped aside and shrank from a distance to watch enviously.

The first thing Shen Changming did when he returned home from his mission was to take a bath. With the shortage of supplies, water is also precious. In the last days, it is simply impossible for ordinary people to take a bath.

Seeing people coming out of the bathroom and walking away, those around immediately rushed in with broken bowls and cups.

Shen Changming didn't go far, she stopped at the corner and looked back with complicated eyes.

It wasn't the first time those people had gone to grab her bath water.

Walking back to 304, the child has already cooked the food. The child is very good at cooking. The whole small area is full of the smell of the food. People around swallow their saliva, but no one dares to go forward.

After Shen Changming entered the room, he closed the wooden door smoothly, blocking the sight of those looking at the outside.

As always, Shen Changming couldn't eat human food. She sat at the table and took out the crystal to slowly absorb it, while Xu Baisheng stuffed his cheeks with his rice bowl.

In just two months, the boy's face has lost a little baby fat, and his height is also stretched.

night.

There were screams outside the house.

Shen Changming opened his eyes and glanced at the child who was sleeping soundly on the upper bunk and got up from the bed. She reached out and rubbed the space between her brows, opened the door and walked out.

Outside the house, several people gathered together in the inconspicuous darkness, and the scream came from between them.

These scenes are not uncommon in the last days. In order to live without food, some people will gather to choose the weak and treat them as food.

Cannibalism is the norm under any natural disaster.

There was a faint sound of breathing that almost disappeared, and Shen Changming turned his head to see the boy in the daytime. He was curled up on the ground against the wall, his eyes were full of fear, and he was tightly clutching the corner of his black clothes.

With a slight movement in his heart, Shen Changming took out a bottle of pure milk and bread from the space and threw them beside the boy, then turned his head and ignored them.

The bright moon is in the sky, and the stars are shining, like not knowing the sufferings of the world, but also like mocking.

But it didn't know when it began to rain lightly above the head, and the light rain gradually became heavier.

The boy in the corner nervously picked up the food on the ground and looked up at the woman standing beside him.

The rain avoided Shen Changming. Standing in the rain, she was as kind as a god but looked at the world coldly.

The child carefully tore open the packaging bag, swallowed the bread mixed with rainwater, his eyes were red, his face was water-stained, there were tears and rain.

When he raised his hand, he revealed the pitted arm that was bitten by others. Because he didn't want to become food for those people, the boy mustered up the courage to stay here in 304.

The child knows that the woman who lives in 304 is very powerful, and everyone in the East District is afraid of her.

There is water on the ground.

People in the East District took out their basins and filled them with water, with joyful smiles on their faces, and some even took off their clothes in the dark and took a bath for themselves.

When the heavy rain stopped, Shen Changming took another look at the child in the corner when he returned to the house.

It was past nine in the morning.

The subordinate hurriedly pushed open the door of the study.

"Boss, it rained in the East District yesterday."

Flipping through the documents in his hand, Xu Muqing didn't care, "It's just raining, so there's no need to make a fuss?"

"Brother Xu, there is no rain in City S today, not to mention that the moon was bright last night, so it won't rain." Yan Xiuran tilted her head, she already understood what the subordinate wanted to say, "That rain was caused by the water-type supernatural power .”

It is not just ordinary people who are short of water in base S, but also supernatural beings. Even if there are water-type supernatural beings among them, those supernatural beings can produce half a bucket of water at most before their powers are exhausted.

How tempting is a person with abilities that can cast rain?

Xu Muqing closed the document in his hand, and he looked up at the subordinate: "Since this is the case, I will leave it to you to find that water-type supernatural user, and he must be recruited into our team."

"Yes, boss."

After they left the office, Yan Xiuran threw herself into Xu Muqing's arms, and her soft voice sounded close to the man's ear: "Brother Xu, I've been so bored recently, I also want to visit the East District."

Recently, their team took on a big task. A professor of zombie virus research from the Protection Institute successfully arrived at Base S. This task was completed a few days ago. Now she should take time to deal with the bitch who ruined her space.

"The east district is just a slum, where are you going to do it?" Xu Muqing certainly didn't forget about the destruction of his lover's space, and he also knew that Shen Changming lived in the east district.

But Xu Muqing likes to blatantly make trouble, and will not do things to harass behind the scenes. This is why no one has troubled Shen Changming for more than two months.

"Okay then, listen to Brother Xu." Yan Xiuran responded with her mouth, but she already had a plan in her heart.

After consuming his abilities last night, Shen Changming felt drowsy for the first time, and slept for the first time in this world.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Shen Changming was woken up by Xu Baisheng.

"Sister Shen, this person seems to be dead."

Hearing Xu Baisheng's voice, Shen Changming suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes were clear.

The young man squatted beside the ragged child, looking at the mud-stained packing bag next to the child, he understood instantly.

Shen Changming came out last night.

Steady footsteps approached, and the first thing Shen Changming saw was not the dying child, but the torn and tattered milk package in the distance.

It seems that she gave it to the child, but the child was reluctant to drink the milk hidden in his arms and was robbed.

Withdrawing her gaze, she said that she turned her attention to the child. The bruises on the child's face were all new.

In the last days, such a helpless child would only be food for mad humans.

"Want to save him?"

A woman's cold voice sounded from above, Xu Baisheng was taken aback for a moment.

She asked him if he could save this little one?To be honest, he didn't want to save at all.

"Can sister save him?" Xu Baisheng looked up at Shen Changming obediently, and said something against his will, "Sister, can we save him?"

The woman didn't agree right away, her eyes moved between Xu Baisheng and the child, and she nodded in agreement after a while.

When I woke up during the day, I found myself lying in a soft blanket and put on clean clothes, but the clothes were baggy and a bit big anyway.

A boy who was not much older than him was sitting at the table, blowing the hot porridge with his head down, seeing him wake up, he quickly tasted the hot porridge to his mouth.

He didn't dare to open his mouth during the day, he ducked his head to the side, and stared at the boy opposite him defensively.

Xu Baisheng grinned, and his whole body was full of youthful vigor: "Don't be afraid, my sister and I saved you. Now your body is very weak and you need to eat."

The child swallowed and was very hungry. He nodded before opening his mouth.

The boy seemed to be taking care of someone for the first time. The hot porridge in the bowl was not cooled to the right temperature, and it was fed into Tiantian's mouth one after another. It was a little hot, but he didn't dare to pick his mouth during the day.

After feeding a bowl of hot porridge, Xu Baisheng helped the child lie down and was about to wash the dishes when he heard a small voice behind him.

"My name is Tiantian..."

The voice was so weak that it was almost inaudible, but Xu Baisheng still turned his head and showed a big smile: "My name is Xu Bai, you can call me brother."

Looking at the smile on the young man's face, he felt his back go numb during the day, and he grabbed the sheet tightly with his hands hidden under the quilt.

304 has an extra thin boy, he is taciturn, always huddled in a corner by himself, watching anyone with a guard.

There has always been a group of supernatural beings hanging around in the Eastern District recently. They have been staring at the people in the Eastern District, as if they were looking for someone.

However, the other party left after a few days in the Eastern District, probably because he didn't find what he was looking for.

At the same time, the weather in the last days is getting hotter and hotter. There are people who die of thirst in the base every day. These dead people will not be buried. Just throwing them into the slums is a ration for dozens of people.

Cannibalism in Base S is more common than eating before the end of the world.

After getting acquainted with Shen Changming and Xu Baisheng, he was much more courageous during the day. He would take the initiative to watch Xu Baisheng play games, and would take out a book from the shelf and sit next to Shen Changming while reading.

Perhaps this boy was too obedient and quiet, Xu Baisheng's hostility gradually disappeared, and he would take the initiative to play games during the day.

The quiet days did not last long.

The S-base Research Institute claims to have discovered mutated plants, which are more dangerous than zombies, but edible.

A week later, Xu Muqing brought Yan Xiuran into the Eastern District to visit.

"Miss Shen, our mission in the outer forest this time is to capture mutated plants. It is best to capture them and domesticate them. Then we will solve the shortage of supplies one by one."

Shen Changming sat by the table and didn't speak. She was playing with a red zombie crystal nucleus in her hand. She didn't know if she was thinking about the other party's words or she didn't pay attention to the other party at all.

Mutated plants can be eaten. This conclusion, which should have been raised in the last three years, is now being talked about, and it should be pushed by the heroine.

Not only mutated plants, but also mutated animals can also be eaten, but it is also accompanied by zombie plants and zombie animals.

I don't know if the male lead only revealed half of the news to her on purpose, or the female lead didn't convey all the news to the research institute of S base?

"Miss Shen?" Xu Muqing's voice rose a little as there was no answer.

"Go." In the apocalypse, Shen Changming needs to train her skills, and she doesn't mind seeking benefits for human beings by the way.

"Then thank you Miss Shen." The man breathed a sigh of relief. Mutated plants are more difficult to deal with than zombies. He brought Shen Changming for safety reasons, and of course he also wanted to replace the dead ghost.

The first day Xu Muqing came to visit the Eastern District, and the next morning someone came to 304 to welcome Shen Changming and the others.

On the way out, because of the heroine's cultivation space, the three of Shen Changming and Xu Muqing were not arranged to ride in the same car, but were arranged at the back of the convoy.

Shen Changming wasn't the only one who went out to capture the mutated plants this time. Almost everyone with some ability from base S came. After all, mutated plants are related to the future life and death of human beings.

Shen Changming made an open-air truck, and she took Xu Baisheng and four other supernatural beings to squeeze behind the truck.

The four supernatural beings were all looking at Shen Changming and him with disdain and curiosity.

I heard that among this pair of people, only these two came from the eastern part of the slums. What strength can people living in the slums have?But who told them that these two were invited by Xu Muqing, the captain of the first team of S base.

The convoy did not enter the urban area, but bypassed the urban area and headed towards the suburbs, shuttling between the mountains along the highway.

In the last days, human beings flee for their lives outside the city, but zombies are gathering towards the city.

The convoy stopped at a mountain road, and everyone got out of the car under the command.

More than 100 teams were divided into groups of five, and went to the mountain from different directions to look for mutated plants.

After Shen Changming got off the car, someone came to ask her to leave.

Walking forward, the person who led the way told her that the task Xu Muqing gave her was to protect a doctor who came out of the laboratory. This doctor is very important in finding mutated plants this time, and the other party will distinguish the mutated plants that can be eaten.

The man brought Shen Changming to a white Buick, and beside the Buick stood two men in black, wearing sunglasses and dressed as bodyguards.

Between the two men was a woman in a short skirt and white shirt with her hair cut to her ears. The woman wore a diamond ring on her ear, which did not look like a person in the last days.

Seeing this woman, Shen Changming frowned, as if seeing the word "trouble" on the woman's face.

The woman also saw Shen Changming, who was three points prettier than her, with a forceful aura all over her body, which made her very uncomfortable.

"Are you the person Boss Xu sent to protect me?" The woman looked at Shen Changming critically, "Are you a supernatural person? Are you capable of protecting me?"

That tone seemed to be a great honor to protect her.

Squeezing Xu Baisheng's hand, Shen Changming only glanced at the woman and then looked away. She said to the supernatural being who brought her, "When are we going?"

"You can start now." The superhuman replied with a smile.

"Hey, what's your name?" Being ignored for no reason, the woman seemed very dissatisfied. She stepped on high heels and walked up to Shen Changming. I want to sue you!"

Shen Changming pinched the hand on his shoulder and pulled it back. The woman's complexion turned pale from the pain before he exerted any force. He turned his cold eyes around the sky high on the woman's feet, and his eyes stopped on the woman's delicate makeup.

"Are you here to play?" The slow tone, each word turned into a cold knife, cut on the woman's chest, "Change a pair of shoes, or you can choose not to wear shoes."

Shaking off the woman's hand, Shen Changming leaned back and leaned lazily on the Buick. She saw the plastic hang tag on the woman's chest.

Zheng Xiyi, this woman's name.

"Crazy!" Zheng Xiyi glared at Shen Changming viciously. She didn't take off her high heels, but raised her feet and walked up the path, "I will complain to you when I get back!"

The bodyguard in black followed behind Zheng Xiyisheng, and the superhuman who brought Shen Changming smiled awkwardly and followed closely behind.

Others didn't care, and Shen Changming didn't care. She raised her eyelids indifferently, and followed behind these people, keeping a distance of three or four meters.
