The woman knelt down and tidied the little girl’s hair.

She didn’t want the little girl’s hair to get into the soup.

After hearing Zhou Yuan’s question, she pretended to be calm and said,

“This information is worth a bottle of water!”

“That crystal, two bottles of water!”

Thinking of the horror she had experienced, the woman asked for a sky-high price.

She felt that these two items were worth the price.

Zhou Yuan laughed and said,

“That is quite an exorbitant price?”

“But I can only give you half a bottle of water for the information and this crystal!”

The woman’s expression turned ugly when she heard this.

She was extremely dissatisfied with Zhou Yuan’s bid.

Although she didn’t know what the crystal was for.

However, since it was dug out from a zombie’s head, it must be valuable.

She had read a lot of movies and novels in the past.

In her opinion, even if it wasn’t worth two bottles of water, he should at least give her one.

In the end, Zhou Yuan only offered her half a bottle, including the location of the zombie.

Was this bargaining?

He was clearly not sincere!

The woman’s face turned cold again.

“You can leave. I won’t exchange for half a bottle of water.”

Zhou Yuan shook his head helplessly.

However, he still patiently analyzed the situation.

“Although the zombies just appeared and very few people know about it.”

“However, you should also know that this thing will soon spread all over the world!”

“When that happens, it won’t matter if there’s any news or not.”

“And I can obtain this crystal at any time.”

“All I paid was some waiting time.”

“That’s why I’m already being very sincere by offering you half a bottle of water as an exchange. ”

After saying that, Zhou Yuan took out a bottle of water and gulped down half of the bottle in front of the woman.

Then, he took the remaining half of the bottle and said,

“Do you want to make the exchange? If not, I’ll just leave!”

The woman still said coldly,

“No, you can go!”

Zhou Yuan immediately turned around and left.

However, with his back to the woman, a smile appeared on his face.

Even though he said he didn’t want it, he definitely did want it!

Zhou Yuan was well aware of the woman’s thoughts.

As expected, the woman said after Zhou Yuan took three steps,

“Wait!”

“I want, I…”

As soon as the words left her mouth, the woman immediately felt that something was wrong and instantly changed her words.

“I’ll exchange for half a bottle of water.”

Zhou Yuan slowly turned around and calmly threw the half-filled bottle of water over.

Then, he bent over and picked up the zombie core that she had thrown away earlier.

Then, he looked at the woman and waited for her to tell him where the zombies were.

The woman took the bottle with a strange expression.

First, she felt that the man in front of her was too wasteful.

Half a bottle of water could last anyone for two to three days, but this man just drank it all in one go?

What kind of nouveau riche was this!

Secondly, she was a little disgusted that it had been drunk by someone else.

So, she decided to boil the water later to disinfect it.

Seeing that Zhou Yuan was still staring at her, the woman muttered,

“The last time I saw the zombie, it was in a building not far from here.”

“There were only two or three zombies at the time. I killed one to search for supplies in the house.”

“I’m not sure if the rest are still there.”

Zhou Yuan said impatiently,

“You just need to tell me the location.”

The woman walked to the window and pointed into the distance,

“It’s there!”

Zhou Yuan also walked to the window. After confirming the direction and appearance of the residential building, he turned around and left.

He was determined to get the zombies’ crystalline cores.

He couldn’t waste any more time.

If the zombies ran away, he wouldn’t even have a place to cry.

Even though he could obtain more later on.

However, the development of the base was a step slower.

What if the zombie virus broke out before his base was even built, and the number of humans decreased again?

By then, it would be even slower for him to build his base.

In addition, food, water, building materials, and so on.

The difficulty of obtaining these resources would be multiplied.

At that time, if he relied on himself, he wouldn’t be able to do it even if he died of exhaustion.

Moreover, even though he didn’t want to be a savior, he still had to be careful.

After all, if he wanted to live a comfortable life in the future, he could not do without ‘society’.

What was society?

To put it bluntly, they were humans!

With more people, society would naturally form.

If all human beings turned into zombies, he wouldn’t be able to live a comfortable life, then what was the point of him planning all these?

Therefore, it was necessary to build a base as soon as possible and save as many people as he could.

The crystalline cores of these zombies were very important to him.

After eating and drinking to his heart’s content, Zhou Yuan was full of energy.

Naturally, his speed was extremely fast.

Soon, he arrived at the building.

It was a super large residential building, but half of it had already collapsed.

As soon as he arrived downstairs, Zhou Yuan relied on his extraordinary hearing to hear the roars coming from inside the building.

Zhou Yuan was overjoyed. He immediately found the entrance and walked in.

Although half of the residential building had collapsed, the remaining half was still like a maze.

It took Zhou Yuan a long time to find the zombies by following the sound.

However, Zhou Yuan was surprised to see the so-called zombies.

The first zombie that appeared in front of him looked like an old man.

Its limbs were twisted, joints dislocated, as it staggered towards Zhou Yuan.

Although the way it roared and its strong desire for human flesh and blood was very zombie-like…

However, in general, it seemed very weak!

When he thought about the ‘low-grade zombie’ that the system had mentioned, he suddenly felt a sense of regret.

Zhou Yuan immediately asked,

“System, what is the grade of this zombie in front of me?”

[Scanning…]

[Scan complete!]

[This corpse has not condensed a crystalline core, so it does not have a grade.]

Zhou Yuan was speechless.

After all this time and effort, could all the zombies in this place be of no grade?

Zhou Yuan casually picked up a steel pipe, took two steps forward, and directly exploded the zombie’s head.

After that, he didn’t give up and fiddled with its head.

As expected, there was nothing but rotten flesh and blood.

At this time, the system automatically rang.

[Two energy fluctuations have been detected. They’re coming this way.]

[Host, please be prepared!]

Energy fluctuation?

Zhou Yuan’s eyes lit up.

The zombie’s crystalline core contained energy. What else could have energy fluctuations here other than zombies?

With that thought in mind, Zhou Yuan excitedly held the steel pipe with both hands and swung it twice like he was playing baseball.

A moment later, two howls, one deep and one sharp sounded.

Two zombies appeared at the end of the corridor.

Although their movements were exaggerated and their running postures were awkward due to dislocated joints, the two zombies were extremely fast.

Their roars shook the heavens, and black blood and pus spurted out of their mouth from time to time.

They looked very much like a zombie.

They were much more powerful than the previous one.

If an ordinary person saw this scene, they would probably be scared half to death.

However, Zhou Yuan was not afraid. Instead, he was overjoyed.

In his eyes, they weren’t zombies that could eat humans.

Instead, they were two shiny crystalline cores worth 400 system gold coins that could give him four evolution chances!

Thinking of this, Zhou Yuan let out a strange cry and took the initiative to charge forward.
