Chapter 009: Fully Loaded with Supplies

More than an hour later, the sky had gradually darkened. Xiao Yu returned to the starting point, with four short spears tied to his back, indicating that he had successfully hunted four goblin warriors, and his physical strength had increased by one third compared to when he first entered the initial stage

A series of footsteps approached slowly. Judging by the sound of the footsteps, they seemed to be heading towards the entrance of the supermarket. Based on Xiao Yu's experience in interpreting the sounds, there should be three goblins. The absence of clanking chains indicates that all three are goblin warriors

This is a big problem

Xiao Yu rushed over with two large backpacks, waving his hand and calling out loudly: "Don't be nervous, it's me!"

Three formidable goblin warriors were unexpectedly killed without even having the chance to fight back. The commotion here clearly alarmed many goblins, and various strange cries could be heard from outside.

Xiao Yu placed two backpacks and five goblin short spears on the ground. He unzipped one of the backpacks, and a large pile of knives spilled out. There were five kitchen knives, and the rest were various sizes of fruit knives, totaling more than forty. Additionally, there were several large bags of edible salt. The other backpack contained six to seven jin of assorted candies, over one hundred Dove chocolates, and several packs of compressed biscuits

Darkness gradually enveloped the surroundings, but for Xiao Yu, who had activated the "Eye of Insight," it posed no impact whatsoever. Cautiously, he emerged from the woods and silently infiltrated the street to the south, discovering several goblin slaves wandering about. The street was littered with many abandoned vehicles, which he used as cover to approach carefully. Suddenly, he launched an attack; before they could react, the flash of blades ended their lives.

Gibberish

Jinshi is directing the person picking fruit from the tree, while a group of people stands around to keep watch over the surroundings

Among them, that man and the *illustrator* stared wide-eyed, their hollow eyes filled with resentment and fear

Damn it! Xiao Yu took out the Bone Blade and looked around, "There must have been goblins here; I must leave as soon as possible"

All three goblin warriors were startled and rushed over with their short spears, successfully locating the source of the sound. It turned out to be a kitchen knife tied to the floor with a rope, dragging along. As it was dragged, the knife made a crisp sound upon contact with the floor. The poor intellect of the goblins could not explain this bizarre phenomenon, and instinctively, they followed the knife until they stopped in front of a shelf filled with various iron pots and furniture.

Gibber! Gibber! The three goblins called out twice, seemingly unaware of any anomalies. However, they showed no intention of leaving, standing at the door in a daze.

Jinshi nodded and said: "The harvest is quite good. Following your instructions, we have already picked a large batch of wild fruits to take back, and everyone has eaten something. We are now picking another batch to store, so that we won't run out of food in the future"

Almost simultaneously

The ground was covered with various brands of snacks. I randomly grabbed several handfuls of Alpen candies, and then stuffed all one hundred pieces of Dove chocolate from the shelf into my backpack. Before long, my large backpack was completely full.

Xiao Yu cautiously arrived at the southern part of the school, where there were numerous human corpses, and it was estimated that many goblins would be present. However, the entire street outside the southern school gate also appeared here along with half of the campus, making the southern street relatively safe. According to memory, the shops on the street mainly consisted of internet cafes, bookstores, copy shops, and supermarkets. The scale of those supermarkets was quite large, and many useful supplies could be found there, which was precisely Xiao Yu's main objective.

They are lingering at the entrance, highly alert at this moment. In other words, any slight movement from Xiao Yu is bound to attract their attention. With Xiao Yu's skills and experience, dealing with three goblin warriors at the same time would be challenging, but not without a chance of victory. However, this place is filled with goblins, and if a fight breaks out, it will surely alert other goblins. Ordinary goblins are manageable, but if a goblin leader notices, it could lead to dire consequences.

Everyone be careful, something has happened. It's coming over!

After Xiao Yu killed the goblin warrior, he forcefully pulled the short spear out of the tree. This short spear was still relatively sharp, and given the current shortage of weapons, it could be taken back for others to use. He did not rush into the ruins of the school; first, he dragged the goblin's corpse into the bushes and covered the traces of the battle on the ground with dirt. After wiping off the blood on his body, he once again stealthily entered the woods to hunt.

I went to hell! Standing on the container, Xiao Yu would never give him a chance to resist. I forcefully stepped on the face of the goblin below and swung my knife again to end its life.

At that moment, a voice suddenly came from within

The power of a single strike is so shocking; this is the difference between the first level and the initial level

Xiao Yu patted his bulging backpack and said, "What do you think? How are things on your end?"

However, Xiao Yu ended the battle too quickly. From toppling the shelves to pinning down three goblin warriors, and then killing them, it took less than twenty seconds. After that, he grabbed the spoils and made a swift escape. There were not many goblins wandering the streets, and the goblin warriors in the surrounding forest had been completely cleared out.

A voice suddenly echoed in the supermarket

Gurgle! Gurgle!

Han Kexin said: "Today, we harvested a large quantity of fruits from Jinshi, enough for each person to have one on average, with a surplus remaining. This is all thanks to the location you provided; otherwise, it would have taken an unknown amount of time to find it. Just relying on the food you brought back would not suffice for everyone's consumption"

Xiao Yu's action froze for a moment, immediately halting the motion of stuffing several packets of peanut compressed cakes into the bag. Carefully, he took them out and placed them at his feet, then gently reached out to pull up the zipper of the backpack, little by little, slowly securing it.

Hiding on the other side of the shelf, Xiao Yu dropped the rope and suddenly charged headfirst into the shelf. With a loud crash, a massive metal cabinet toppled over, crushing three unsuspecting goblin warriors beneath it. Xiao Yu sprang up, stood on the shelf, and swiftly severed the neck of one goblin warrior with a single stroke of his knife, cutting through the stainless steel frame of the shelf. He then raised his knife with both hands and plunged it fiercely into the heart of another goblin. The last goblin warrior was struggling to push away the heavy shelf that was pinning him down. With immense strength, he managed to shift the thousand-pound shelf slightly. Xiao Yu sprang up again, stood on the shelf, and with a swift motion, severed the neck of another goblin warrior, cutting through the stainless steel frame. He then raised his knife with both hands and stabbed fiercely into the heart of yet another goblin. The last goblin warrior continued to push against the heavy shelf, and under the tremendous force, the massive shelf was surprisingly moved a little.

Everyone immediately followed him back to the underground cave. Han Kexin, seeing Xiao Yu return with a full load, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Jiang Xiaowen even smiled for the first time. They gathered together to discuss the distribution of supplies and the next steps in their plan

Clang clang ... ... ! ''

Xiao Yu first arrived at a place selling stationery, where he found several brand new large backpacks. He then went to a furniture supplies store, where he picked up various kitchen knives, fruit knives, ropes, and a few large bags of table salt, stuffing them all into the backpacks. Finally, he moved to the snack area, where the shelves were in disarray and the floor was littered with various temporary food items.

Xiao Yu remained motionless, beginning to observe the surrounding terrain, calm like a predator quietly lurking in the darkness, akin to a venomous snake poised to strike.

It is almost time; the goblin leader possesses some rudimentary intelligence. If too many are killed at once, he may notice. If the goblins all gather together, it will be much more difficult to sneak back in the future. It is still crucial to focus on gathering supplies

As soon as he stepped into the supermarket, he was met with a strong smell of blood.

Xiao Yu quickly jumped down, randomly pulling out a short spear from the bottom of the container. There was no time to retrieve the other two that were pressed inside. He turned back, picked up two backpacks from the ground, and fled towards the forest as if his life depended on it. A large group of goblins frantically chased after him, among them was a tall figure wearing a wolfskin helmet and wielding a large knife, the very goblin leader.

At this time, Jinshi was leading more than twenty people in the woods searching for food. Following Xiao Yu's instructions, they found this area. First, they picked several bunches of fruits similar to bananas, but larger than bananas. Then, they discovered several large fruit trees growing close together. Each of these wild fruits was about the size of a fist, somewhat resembling apples. Perhaps due to being unripe, they were green in color and tasted somewhat sour and astringent, but were barely edible.

The speed of the goblin leader was unbelievable; in just a few leaps, he reached the street, but the invaders had long since vanished. In his fury, he let out a loud roar towards the sky, swinging his large blade. A green blade of light slashed down, sending a small car flying backward for five or six meters, producing a sharp, piercing sound as it scraped against the ground, leaving a long trail of sparks. It finally crashed into another vehicle before coming to a stop. The small car was utterly wrecked, with a shocking gash visible on it, nearly cleaving the entire vehicle into two-thirds.

Xiao Yu glanced back and then said to everyone: "It is getting dark, and the forest is not safe. Let’s discuss this when we return."

It can be said that Xiao Yu left without any hindrance, confidently moving forward.

Xiao Yu wiped the blood off the blade and walked over to an overturned BMW. Looking through the shattered window, he saw two people inside. One was a young man with dyed yellow hair, and the other was a flamboyantly dressed woman. She was wearing a revealing low-cut camisole that had been torn, exposing one of her ample breasts. However, both of them had faces twisted in agony, bloodied and unrecognizable, their bodies severely contorted, making it impossible to discern their true identities.

A woman wearing a supermarket uniform lies on the ground, her death gruesome. More than half of the flesh on her neck is missing, and her yellow clothing is completely soaked in blood, which has already congealed into a dark red color. Her abdomen has a large gash, with most of her intestines removed, and a string of intestines is still exposed.

Jinshi was immediately overjoyed, "You have returned; I trust the harvest was substantial!"

Finally arriving at one of the supermarkets, which has three floors, half of it has collapsed at this moment. Fortunately, a portion has not completely fallen. This also saved Xiao Yu the effort of moving stones as he entered the supermarket in search of the necessary rooms

Candy ... ... Chocolate ... ...

A bead of sweat appeared on Xiao Yu's forehead as he contemplated his strategy for dealing with the situation, shoving pieces of torn Dove chocolate into his mouth, swallowing them before he could even savor the taste. He hoisted his backpack and cautiously approached, just in time to see three goblins armed with short spears scanning the area; their hearing was exceptionally keen, clearly drawn by the noise from earlier.

Xiao Yu seemed not to notice, reaching into the car to rummage around. As a result, he found an exquisite windproof lighter, half a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, a wallet filled with cash, and a few boxes of condoms. He directly ignored the condoms and the wallet, taking a few packs of cigarettes and the lighter to put in his pocket, and continued to feel his way toward the supermarket.
