The SUV was fast enough and powerful enough to directly knock several Zombies aside, then it charged into the parking lot entrance! 0
 
"Don't go to the first underground level, go straight to the second underground level!" Shen Yuan commanded from the back seat, extremely tense. 0
 
He was very familiar with this plaza. 0
 
Not because he often came here to shop; he didn't have that much spare money. 0
 
But because the indoor signal distribution system of this plaza was constructed by his company, and as one of the main design personnel, he had no idea how many times he had run through here. He knew exactly where the elevators were, where the Fire Shutter Doors were, and where the wartime closure systems were. 0
 
"Turn left! Go straight! Directly to the second underground level! The railing? Just crash through it!" Shen Yuan took out his Slingshot, always prepared. His jacket pocket contained more than twenty activated steel balls, and next to them lay an Activated Engineering Shovel. Even if he encountered a group of ordinary Zombies, he was confident that with the SUV's cover, he could take them all down. 0
 
Chen Letian's driving skills were indeed impressive; even at high speed, he made sharp turns without hitting either wall, directly crashing into two Zombies coming from the front. Then, under Shen Yuan's command, he stopped at the entrance of a sealed passage. 0
 
"Wait!" 0
 
Shen Yuan got out and walked up to the Civil Defense Door, pushing it open with all his strength! 0
 
This was a twenty-centimeter-thick steel Civil Defense Door designed for refuge during wartime; its thickness was astonishing. Not to mention bullets—even directional explosives capable of blowing open concrete walls couldn't breach it; it was the best shelter. 0
 
"Get out! Everyone out! Get inside!" Shen Yuan shouted, then was the first to carry Chi Qinghua down. A Hu also jumped out of the car and closely followed. 0
 
This was a sealed space in an L-shape, with two Civil Defense Doors on either side that ordinary people could only push open with great effort. However, usually no one came here; it had always been tightly closed, and Zombies wouldn't just wander in for no reason. 0
 
Shen Yuan had just checked; there were no Zombies. 0
 
Not a single one. 0
 
This place would be their temporary refuge. 0
 
Here, even if they encountered a Licker, they wouldn't be afraid. It would be really difficult for a Licker to break through such thick iron doors and concrete walls. It's important to know that the concrete walls of civil defense projects are extremely thick—over thirty centimeters—making it very hard for Bombs to breach them. 0
 
 
A group of Zombies chased after them. 0
 
Xu Lixing and Zhang Huanxue got out of the car and hurried inside, followed by Chen Letian. 0
 
Shen Yuan quickly pushed hard to close the Civil Defense Door and then locked it from the inside. 0
 
However, at the last moment before closing the Civil Defense Door, he caught a glimpse of flickering lights in the distance through a gap of less than twenty centimeters. 0
 
It was a High-Intensity Flashlight! 0
 
And it swept across this side before suddenly going out! 0
 
Zombies could not possibly know how to use a flashlight, so without a doubt, there were Survivors over there who had discovered them. 0
 
The door was tightly shut; they were safe! 0
 
Darkness engulfed them. 0
 
The power system in the Industrial Zone had collapsed, and there were no emergency lights with backup power in this section of the civil defense project. 0
 
Shen Yuan took out his portable High-Intensity Flashlight, and light instantly returned to the area. 0
 
Shen Yuan set Chi Qinghua down and began to think carefully. 0
 
He recalled the entire structure of the civil defense project. 0
 
The reason he chose to come here was that the underground civil defense project was sturdy enough to withstand attacks from Zombies and ordinary Mutant Beasts. To be honest, even if the Terrifying Giant Snake from Dalong Lake came over, it probably wouldn't be able to break through two Civil Defense Doors; this place was truly safe. 0
 
Next came the supplies. 0
 
 
This is the second underground level, while the first underground level is a large supermarket, one of the largest in the southern part of the city and also the biggest in this area, supplying the nearby Industrial Zone and residential areas. 0
 
This is the junction between the Industrial Zone and the residential area, next to a wide road. 0
 
Inside the supermarket, there are plenty of supplies. Even though there are many Zombies inside and a lot of supplies have already been contaminated, there are definitely still a large number of supplies that have not been contaminated. Moreover, those warehouses that open and close frequently should have supplies that are definitely uncontaminated, and there are no Zombies there either. 0
 
In the apocalypse, aside from having a sufficiently safe shelter, supplies are equally important, with water and food being the most crucial. 0
 
These two points are not lacking in the supermarket. 0
 
This is the safest place within five kilometers that Shen Yuan can think of, and it is also the only underground parking lot he is familiar with that has civil defense engineering. 0
 
Since it is an underground parking lot, there is less personnel movement, which means there are fewer Zombies, making it safer. 0
 
“Let’s take a break first,” Shen Yuan said. 0
 
He thought carefully and recalled many details. 0
 
This section of civil defense engineering is actually a wartime Evacuation Passage that connects the underground parking lot to the Elevator Lobby. After opening another Civil Defense Door, there is a corridor over twenty meters long, with about ten underground storage rooms on both sides. At the end of the corridor, there is a door leading into the Elevator Lobby. 0
 
The Elevator Lobby has three elevators in total: two passenger elevators and one freight elevator, connecting from the first underground level to five floors above ground. 0
 
Those storage rooms are actually warehouses rented out to shops, storing different goods inside. Perhaps among them are food and water, as well as lighting equipment like flashlights, batteries, or candles. 0
 
That place is not absolutely safe because there could also be Zombie activity; however, the likelihood is low. 0
 
Moreover, even if there are any, they should be in the corridor and Elevator Lobby since those warehouses are usually locked. Zombies cannot open doors, so they cannot get inside. 0
 
A corridor stretches out before him. Even if there are Zombies, there shouldn't be too many. With an Activated Slingshot in hand and an Activated Engineering Shovel in hand, Shen Yuan is confident he can eliminate them; this... is not difficult. 0
 
 
After resting for ten minutes, Shen Yuan suppressed the overwhelming hunger and stood up. 0
 
"A Hu, guard the Azure Mantis. Zhang Huanxue, you stay here and lock the door from the inside. Don't open it unless you hear my voice. Remember, do not open the door for anyone else's voice! Keep in mind that what makes the apocalypse terrifying is not just Zombies and Mutant Beasts, but also people! In such a large shopping plaza, there are definitely other Survivors. But if you open the door on your own, think about what could happen to a girl... think about Yuan Yulu!" 0
 
The strong light he saw before closing the door cast a shadow in his heart. 0
 
Zombies and Mutant Beasts are certainly frightening, but the most terrifying thing in this world is still people. 0
 
Shen Yuan patted A Hu's head. 0
 
Zhang Huanxue had a gentle personality, so he left her here while taking Chen Letian and Xu Lixing with him. Although he was willing to trust Chen Letian and Xu Lixing, he never hesitated to consider others with the most sinister thoughts. 0
 
What if? 0
 
Zhang Huanxue was no different. 0
 
Even though Zhang Huanxue was very fragile, it didn't mean she wouldn't harbor ill intentions. What reassured him was not Zhang Huanxue, but A Hu. 0
 
A Hu's combat ability was very strong, comparable to a half-meter-long Mutant Mouse. An ordinary adult, even with a weapon, would basically have no chance against A Hu unless they had a gun. With A Hu around, at least he didn't have to worry about Zhang Huanxue having any bad intentions. 0
 
"Chen Letian, Xu Lixing, I will take you to look for supplies." Shen Yuan walked to the Civil Defense Door leading to the Elevator Lobby, picked up the Slingshot, loaded it with steel balls, and then said, "You two open the door!" 0
