Chapter 70 Troops’ Movements
When he went out the next day, Lin Shi still went to the bank without giving up.
It took most of the day to break through several locks of the bank and arrived at the door of the vault.
Lin Shi once again experienced the feeling of being dizzy and nauseous after being hit hard on the head.
This time he gave up completely.
The bank's vault is not only thick, but also divided into many layers. The structure is complex and cannot be opened by ordinary external force.
The lock on the vault door alone is extremely complex in structure. Even if the lock is destroyed, it is impossible to open the door.
Helpless, he could only collect gold honestly from one gold shop to another.
On this day, Lin Shi raided all the remaining gold shops in the city and collected less than a few dozen kilograms of gold and other types of jewelry.
Less than he thought.
After all these are used to exchange money points for upgrade space:
treasure bowl
Storage space: 1456*1456*1456
Continue to accumulate money points and you will gain full storage space.
Function: Item copy*381
Money points required for upgrade: 1.24 million
He still needs more than 15 kilograms of gold to upgrade his storage space to the full level!
Lin Shi couldn't help but feel excited.
...
The third day after the snowstorm.
Lin Shi, who had finished practicing the health-preserving skills early in the morning, found that it was snowing heavily outside the house today.
Although the heavy snow affects travel visibility, fortunately the wind is not strong, so you can still go out to look for gold.
The Demon King's injury has not fully recovered yet. He didn't take it with him when he went out to the forest yesterday, and he still left it at home today.
Considering that the snow was likely to get heavier and he was trapped in a certain place due to a snowstorm and unable to return, Lin Shi left enough food for the Demon King for several days before going out.
Today Lin Shi's target is the suburbs.
As soon as he arrived in the suburbs, Lin Shi noticed a difference in the atmosphere.
Perhaps not just the suburbs, but the entire Shashi atmosphere has changed.
There were obviously fewer people out looking for supplies today than the previous two days.
In the past two days, I occasionally passed by a lone person carrying supplies on the street, and someone rushed over to snatch him.
During the robbery, incidents of white knives going in and red knives coming out often happened in front of Lin Shi's eyes.
In addition to the messy footprints on the snow, you can often see dazzling blood staining a large area on the white snow.
Yesterday, Lin Shi saw two young women from a distance who seemed to be looking for supplies together, but they were dragged into a dark and deserted shop by three big men.
The desperate cry of struggle only lasted for a while and then disappeared.
Lin Shi was dressed in a "luxurious" outfit, and he was targeted without any surprise. There was an endless stream of people who wanted to take advantage of him and looked at him with ill intentions.
With his current physical fitness, which has opened the second level of the gene lock, and the eight years of accumulated murder experience in the last days, anyone who dares to come in front of him and seek death will be easily killed by him one by one.
After knowing that a life-and-death situation could inspire humans to unlock genetic locks, Lin Shi took action even more decisively.
Those who can kill instantly will never be given more than one knife.
The whole world has become pure white, and people's hearts have become dark.
After killing the fifth blind guy who came up today, Lin Shi took some trouble and directly put the blood-clotted Nepali saber on his waist.
Sure enough, there were fewer people with eyes looking for trouble.
But when Lin Shi was having lunch at noon, a blind man still appeared.
"Young man, please do me a favor. Can you give me something to eat? I haven't eaten in two days."
A kind-hearted aunt about fifty years old, wearing a rag cotton-padded jacket, walked into the printing shop where Lin Shi was resting.
Lin Shi glanced coldly at the aunt who was getting closer, and said in a cold tone:
"One more step and you'll die."
The aunt paused as she walked in and wiped the corners of her eyes:
"God doesn't give me a way to survive. My children are all in other places, leaving me as an old woman to suffer here."
"Young man, I don't want more from you, just give me a bite. I'll trade this coat for you."
Auntie stood at the door and did not give up.
It sounds like a good deal to exchange one bite for a warm cotton-padded jacket. Maybe some people just bite the bullet and take one less bite to exchange.
Lin Shi's eyes became colder, he stood up and walked towards the aunt.
The aunt thought Lin Shi had agreed, and her face showed joy.
Just when Lin Shi approached, the aunt's eyes flashed sharply, and she shrank in the cotton-padded jacket's hand to reveal a sharp steel awl.
However, before she could raise her hand, a cold light flashed out of the corner of her eye.
Her vision suddenly became dizzy, and the last thing she saw was Lin Shi standing in front of a familiar headless corpse holding a sharp and bloody knife.
Is that...my body?
These were Auntie's last thoughts.
...
Lin Shi put away the knife and kicked the aunt's body out the door. He glanced coldly at the nearby prying eyes before returning to the shop and eating.
In the afternoon, while Lin Shi was collecting gold, he suddenly heard a commotion.
The sound did not come from nearby, but from some high-rise communities and apartments.
"Soldier!! I'm here!"
"The troops are here, we are saved!!"
"Brother Bing! Help me, I haven't eaten for three days!"
...
In the past two days, people have often been crying desperately in the apartment complex about why the troops did not show up and why the country did not come to rescue them.
Lin Shi had already guessed in his heart that the movement of the troops should happen soon.
Because yesterday he took the opportunity to go to another port and found that most of the containers had been opened and the useful materials had been moved away.
Thinking of the scene when he met the troops that day, Lin Shi had no doubt that the soldiers in the troops had been ordered to seize the opportunity to collect supplies in the past few days.
This is sensible.
Without supplies to comfort them, even if the troops could barely maintain order in the city, the survivors who were about to starve and freeze to death would still be dissatisfied.
Driven by cold and hunger, they may even turn against the troops, causing riots and riots.
This also shows that the top commander of the Shashi troops is not a pedantic person.
Sure enough, the troops finally took action.
Teams of soldiers, armed with real swords and weapons, appeared all over the city in full gear.
To the disappointment of the survivors, these soldiers did not hold the supplies they dreamed of, but pieces of paper that looked like leaflets.
These soldiers turned a blind eye to the corpses that could be seen everywhere on the streets, and started doing the job of posting small advertisements before the end of the world.
Pieces of paper were posted in conspicuous places throughout the city.
Some soldiers put leaflets into people's hands when they saw them.
Lin Shi also received what looked like a handwritten leaflet, or notice.
