There were 20 large cardboard boxes in the back of the pickup truck belonging to that group of people.
Inside were ten full boxes of instant noodles, five boxes of rice, two boxes of drinking water, one box of various meats and vegetables, and a box full of gold. The price tags hadn't even been removed! It was clear they had specifically looted it when they passed a gold store.
Ashira saw the abundant, 30 or 40 carats of gold and sincerely sighed, the love for gold was truly etched into these people's bones.
However, it was correct for them to take gold, even in the Apocalypse, only gold had circulation value. She sorted these supplies and sent them into her warehouse, in addition, she also confiscated a pistol.
It was a police model. It seemed this group of thugs had definitely looted places they shouldn't have. Ashira felt she was truly a 'good person' who eliminated harm for the people.
After all, there weren't many enthusiastic citizens full of righteousness like her, which normal person encountering this group of rioters wouldn't quickly run away from, fearing they couldn't avoid them, only she, besides going up to bravely counterattack, repelling the enemy, also thoughtfully gave them a Zombie package.
Preventing them from harming others. Otherwise, she could have simply scared them away and driven them out of her territory. Where would she need to lure the enemy deep in, insisting on killing them.
A 'good person' as bad as her, a righteous as her was already rare. Let these be the reward for her seeing injustice and acting bravely. Otherwise, she couldn't have stood it! Ashira gladly accepted her spoils of war.
Just then, the system's notification sound rang in her mind.
[Ding—Detected Base defense battle - 1]
[Successfully defeated enemy - 6 people
Confiscated 20 boxes of supplies!
Congratulations on obtaining 26 points!
System Mall activated!]
Ashira's eyes lit up, A Points Mall!
She was surprised to see a mall panel appear in her mind. A pile of supplies appeared within it. Inside were food, medicine, as well as firearms and weapons, and things for Base construction! Each item also had attributes.
For example, in food, Energy bar-1, quickly fills stamina! Resists hunger for 10 hours! Price 5 points!
Bread-1, quickly fills stamina, resists hunger for 20 hours! Price 8 points!
Pain reliefs-1, stops the relieves pain, effective upon application! Price 20 points!
She flipped to the weapons interface, in the weapon categories, various firearms were readily available! There were even additional damage and additional hit rate! Each of these was a treasure, But the price was too expensive! She currently only had 26 points!
Ashira looked at these with envy, she even felt herself starting to look forward to someone invading her territory next.
Just then, her monitor sounded an alarm again.
Ashira walked to the computer and saw the already dim sky outside, several large vehicles stopped outside her surveillance. The infrared camera could only see a group of people getting out of the cars after they stopped.
They observed the surroundings and cleared out the nearby Zombies. Ashira was delighted. No way, they're coming to give her heads so quickly?
She carefully observed the actions of this group of people through the camera, planning to act as soon as they invaded her territory, but saw these people only killed Zombies.
They were by the roadside, attracting all the nearby Zombies, after killing them, they opened the back door and released a group of Dogs from inside!
Ashira couldn't see their appearance and clothing at the moment, she could only judge these through the heat source shapes from the infrared detector. She could confirm one thing, they really released a group of Dogs!
After they released the Dogs, several people seemed to have a dispute. But soon, everyone got back into the cars, Only that group of Dogs remained in place.
The group of Dogs watched the vehicles drive away, they all chased after them at full speed. In Ashira's infrared camera view, both the vehicle and the running Dogs were heading towards the City.
A trace of doubt was revealed. What was this doing?

Early the next morning...
Ash woke up early as usual to warm up. Even if there were no system rewards now, the warm-up activities should continue.
Just as she was preparing to run a lap around the edge of her territory, her surveillance camera alarmed again.
This time, Ashira connected her phone to the computer, all the footage could be viewed on the phone. When she picked up her phone to look, she saw a group of Dogs appear on the road outside the air-raid shelter.
Approximately 14 or 15 in number. Each one was wearing a uniform. This group of Dogs ran to the place where Ashira saw the strange scene yesterday, and all stopped. They circled around in place, as if waiting for their owners to return.
Just then, a public message came through on her phone.
[Ding— City A rescue operation begins! Rescue vehicles have entered City A, survivors please gather at the following assembly points as soon as possible!]
Ashira heard this. Then she understood.
Those who passed by her door yesterday were the rescue team. Their Dogs. Ash drove her car to the outskirts of her Base.
At this moment, all the Zombies on the main road outside her place were cleared out, the surroundings were a rare safe zone.
A group of Dogs guarded Ashira's road entrance, constantly looking towards the City. These Dogs were not in good spirits, they almost all had injuries on their bodies. Either they had been scratched or bitten, abdominal scratches were common, their ears and tails all had nicks.
One was the most severely injured, both of its hind legs had been bitten and torn, exposing half of the bloody and mangled leg bone, it couldn't even be described as limping, it could barely walk using only its two front limbs, dragging the leg bone behind it, following the group of Dogs, looking yearningly towards the City.
Ashira got out of the car and saw the current state of these 15 Dogs, knowing they must have chased all the way into the City last night and encountered a large horde of Zombies.
But it was obvious, they did not find their owners. They were deeply in danger, and didn't wait for their owners to turn back, after a desperate struggle, they returned here. It seemed, they still wanted to wait for them to return.
"In the Apocalypse, everyone is powerless, if you encounter me, just follow me from now on." After she bandaged all these Dogs, especially the one most severely injured. Ashira gritted her teeth and exchanged for the medicine from her system mall for it.
"Two Legs, you must remember the kindness of your new owner, this is medicine I exchanged for you with my twenty points! From today onwards, honestly follow me, understand? I will never abandon you!"
While Ashira was muttering, she bandaged this severely injured Dog. The Dog lying on the ground seemed to understand Ashira's words, a pair of human-like eyes silently stared at her.
