Chapter 124: Chapter 124 Pick Any Villa
The others also got out of the car holding their weapons, having been in the vehicle for so long, it was time to stretch their legs!
The fifty or so zombies were quickly dealt with; Su Jin pierced each of the zombies’ heads on the ground with vines, collecting only a dozen ordinary Crystal Cores, but this was still an unexpected gain.
“Su Jin, Su Jin, can we go in and pick any house now?” Lin Xiuyuan asked excitedly as he ran over.
Su Jin smiled, “Isn’t that pretty much the same as picking at random?”
“My God, I never thought I’d live in a villa before I died,” Yin Chengtian exclaimed, looking at the dragon-shaped fountain in the center. The fountain was truly upscale and classy.
Lu Hao walked forward and found that the villa’s black wrought-iron gate opened with just a push. This was probably because the original lock was electronic, and without power, it no longer functioned.
As soon as the gate opened, a few zombies scrambled over towards them; thanks to Mao Qiqi’s warning, before the zombies could get out of the gate, Lu Hao had killed most of them with a fireball, and the remaining few were dealt with by Yin Chengtian and Shi Jin using watermelon knives.
“The road is wide, we can drive in,” Lu Hao told the others behind him.
Su Jin agreed. Dragon Leap Villa was a complex of villas, comprising over 300 large and small villas. She had researched these online before the apocalypse, even downloading and printing out the layout of the entire villa complex. The area covered was vast, so if they walked, it would take a long time and driving would be somewhat safer.
Thus, the group got back into their vehicles, ready to drive in.
The villas here appeared to have good privacy, each one detached with a certain distance between them. Su Jin actually had a general idea in mind but was now also interested in driving around with them to look around.
It wasn’t exactly a tour. The villa complex had only been developed not long ago, and some buildings still had unfinished bare walls without tiles. Combined with the fact that no one had cleaned or cleared the area for over half a month, weeds on the roadside grew wild, some even taller than a person, and the dense weeds could hide zombies or other things, making it too late to evade.
Fortunately, they had Qiqi, so this kind of problem was practically non-existent.
“Xiao Jin, so many villas here look the same; how are we going to choose?” Aunt Huang Yunxiang asked through the walkie-talkie.
They had been walking for a while now, the place was too large, and they simply didn’t know how to choose.
“I think it’s best to choose ones with zombies inside,” Su Jin replied.
“What?”
“What? What do you mean?” Xue Wanyi was also surprised; why choose ones with zombies inside?
“If there are zombies inside, it means the owner of the house has likely turned into a zombie, and the house is likely unclaimed. By moving in, we could avoid a lot of potential future trouble,” Su Jin explained.
“Little sister, you are really smart,” Guo Yang agreed with Su Jin’s reasoning when he heard her mention choosing houses with zombies inside.
After all, this place was intended to become a safety base. If survivors from the city came looking, even if some registration information and documents could not be tracked, it could still lead to unnecessary complications.
