Using the nearby mountain wall for leverage, Zhan Yi easily leaped onto the wall. Although the guards heard some noises, they saw nothing and assumed it was just rocks rolling down from the mountainside, so they didn't pay much attention.
And so Zhan Yi ran smoothly into the inner circle. Although he wasted some time on the way, it was not a big problem. It was almost noon now, and he could directly use the invisible time for the next day.
Guided by Shen Muyu, Zhan Yi arrived at the foot of a detached villa. The two people on the list were enjoying themselves in a room on the second floor. Shen Muyu exclaimed that it was an eyesore.
Zhan Yi didn't quite understand what was going on. After climbing up from the outside, he opened the window and jumped in, knocking the two people who were talking nonsense unconscious.
"Just throw some clothes on them." Shen Muyu didn't want anything disgusting to get stuck on her backpack.
Yes, Shen Muyu planned to have Zhan Yi bring those people out in a backpack, otherwise they would be too conspicuous and easily exposed.
As for the backpack, it can actually hold living creatures, but its state is not very stable, and the prerequisite for holding them is that the living creatures lose consciousness; otherwise, it will fail to collect them as soon as they resist.
Shen Muyu had tried using chickens before. Some of them would die after a short while, but others could survive for a long time. When they were taken out, they were just a little weak.
Shen Muyu was unsure of the appropriate measure, so she didn't use a backpack when she put the researcher inside.
If she accidentally loses one, she'll really cry herself to death. After all, it's just that last bit of effort left, and it would be such a waste to fail over something like that.
As for tonight, these people don't have such big concerns. Anyway, they're all going to be game over, so it doesn't matter if it's sooner or later. She doesn't care whether they live or die.
Except for a little time wasted when they encountered a nurse's rounds while they were looking for the old man at the base, everything else went smoothly. Zhan Yi brought them back to the car in just over forty minutes.
Sensing Zhan Yi's return, Xiao A immediately drove away from the spot.
Shen Muyu then began to look through the people Zhan Yi had brought back.
Apart from the first two who were killed, the rest were just unconscious. Zhan Yi took the opportunity to tie them all up.
Perhaps because these people are all quite old, only one of them has awakened a special ability, which is wood-based and is already at level three.
However, Shen Muyu didn't think much of it; after her upgrade, she was already able to reliably cut off other people's superpowers.
Unless his level is higher than Shen Muyu's, the crystal core wrapped in spiritual power will definitely be unusable in three to five days.
Xiao A parked the car in a different spot, while Zhan Yi led the packed-up people out of the car and put them into the cage that Li Qian and the other two had used before.
Shen Muyu planned to deal with these people tomorrow morning. She was too tired right now, and the zombies would be stronger at night, so it wasn't a good time.
After instructing Zhan Yi to keep an eye on them, Shen Muyu took Da Bai back to the cabin.
At this moment, Wei Yi was still diligently repairing the robot in the garage behind. Shen Muyu glanced at the progress with his mental power and then stopped paying attention. Wei Yi definitely had its own rhythm.
...
"Ah~" Shen Muyu yawned loudly and sat up while rubbing her eyes.
She had already told everyone last night not to call her unless there was a special reason. She hadn't had much rest since arriving in this world, and she wanted to sleep in.
Shen Muyu glanced at her watch and realized it was almost ten o'clock. Wearing her pajamas, she ran to the car's dimensional bathroom to relieve herself.
When they returned to the cabin, Vie had already brought out the warmed-up breakfast.
"She's such a good assistant!" Shen Muyu gave Wei Yi a thumbs up. She hadn't asked Wei Yi to make breakfast last night, but she didn't expect her to be so conscientious and observant.
A raise! A raise is a must! Then we'll see how we get it a better body!
Breakfast consisted of a bowl of egg drop soup and several steamers of xiaolongbao (soup dumplings).
The egg drop soup was very bright and clear, not foamy at all. As for the xiaolongbao (soup dumplings), they were similar to those from Nanjing, a bit on the sweeter side, which suited Shen Muyu's taste perfectly. It seems that the culinary skill book was really amazing.
After eating and drinking his fill, Shen Muyu strolled around the yard. At this time, a repaired robot was already collecting resource boxes on the grass.
Having worked for a while, a lot of spatial particles had accumulated, so Shen Muyu casually put them away.
The repaired robot was quite intelligent and could complete some complex commands very well. Shen Muyu tested it and nodded in satisfaction before returning to the car.
By this time, Xiao A had been driving for quite some time, and the surrounding mountains had thinned considerably, with large, dry cornfields visible everywhere.
"It's so much more comfortable with this kind of open view," Shen Muyu said, rubbing his slightly full stomach as he sat in the driver's seat.
"Little A, if we encounter any towns or large spaces along the way, stop and let those people in the back of the car out." Shen Muyu used his mental power to sense the people in the back; almost all of them were awake, and a few idiots were still calling out softly.
In this sweltering heat, they don't even conserve their energy and water. I don't know what they're thinking.
But it doesn't matter anymore, since they'll be going down to see their companions soon anyway.
