Quick Transmigration: Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character Reaches the Pinnacle of Life
Chapter 170 Relying on the Blessing of Divine Beasts, Bravely Venturing into the Apocalypse 4
The Summon Divine Beast system said that one inexplicable sentence and then disappeared again.
With fifteen minutes remaining before the evolved human regained consciousness, Qiu Tong decided to go outside to search for supplies.
Even if you've never seen a pig run, you've never eaten pork. She's going to take advantage of everyone's sleep to seize the opportunity and collect supplies.
She has space, and there's plenty of vacant land in that space. If she doesn't stock up now, when will she?
She thought with a touch of despair, "Why am I so unlucky? After getting the space, apart from the magical plane where I stored some necessary supplies, the other two planes are either plagued by famine or have food that is hard to swallow, so I can't store any food at all."
"Besides some seeds and grains, there's absolutely nothing else in the space. I even have this spatial artifact, but it's completely useless."
Qiu Tong took out a long sword from her spatial storage and carefully walked downstairs, lost in thought all the while.
The mutant animals' sense of smell is still similar to that before evolution. Although they can smell the location of humans, the stairwell is too narrow for them to go upstairs to hunt.
Besides, no matter how much they evolve, they are still animals. Their intelligence is not as high as that of humans, so how could they open the security door by themselves? They can only look at the door and sigh.
In residential communities with elevators, power outages caused by magnetic field disturbances are rare. Except for upscale communities that have backup power sources or generators to keep the elevators running, most ordinary communities have already shut down their elevators.
As soon as Qiu Tong stepped out of the security door, she was attacked by several mutated animals.
Judging from their appearance, they should be mutated from pet cats and dogs, and their size is several times larger.
They are as tall as an adult woman when standing on all fours, and if they stand on their hind legs, they would definitely be more than two meters tall.
Having learned her lesson from the previous world, Qiu Tong no longer dared to be so arrogant, thinking that her combat power was off the charts and that she was invincible.
Different planes have different body sizes and physical attributes.
In the original owner's memories, she saw that the original owner was a weak woman who couldn't even lift a finger. Now, she was very fragile and could lose her fighting ability at any time if hit by a mutated animal.
She couldn't just charge in and slash at the monsters; she had to rely on some clever tricks to win.
She kicked off the wall and used the momentum to slash at the mutated animal.
Their eyes, undersides of their bellies, and ears are the most vulnerable spots for mutant animals. The sword in hand is aimed at the animal's weak points, and the sword is plunged directly into the animal's eye. Then, the sword is rotated to stir up the mutant animal's brain matter, and it is instantly dead.
The same method was used on the other mutated animals, and Qiu Tong quickly dealt with them.
But she was also exhausted and panting heavily. She leaned against the wall and gasped for breath to relieve the pain of lack of oxygen.
She had only moved a few times, yet she was already sweating profusely all over. Qiu Tong mentally complained about her weak body once again.
Before leaving, Qiu Tong put all the mutated animal carcasses into her spatial storage; these were edible food and supplies.
From the original owner's memories, she saw that in the later stages of the apocalypse, researchers discovered that most non-toxic mutated animals could be eaten and could enhance the abilities and physique of those with superpowers.
However, the mutated animals in the later stages become very strong, making it not so easy to hunt one.
Early-stage mutated animals haven't leveled up yet, making them relatively easy to hunt.
Qiu Tong also plans to hunt more mutated animals as food reserves in the early stages, preferably mutated animals with special abilities, in case the harsh winter comes and she can just stay at home and relax without having to go out hunting.
Winter in the apocalypse is ten or twenty degrees colder than usual. Wearing too much clothing will restrict your movement, while wearing too little will leave you freezing.
Stocking up on more goods is the best strategy. Then she can just lie in bed all day and enjoy life. Just thinking about it makes me feel great.
Following the original owner's memories, Qiu Tong headed to the busiest commercial street, where you could buy anything. There were also several large department stores nearby, with large chain supermarkets located downstairs.
Qiu Tong's target was these supermarkets, and the clothing department on the upper floors of department stores. No, it should be said that all the floors above were Qiu Tong's targets for collecting supplies.
No matter what it is, collect a little of everything to ensure that the supplies are complete, so that she won't have to worry about finding these things later.
As soon as Qiu Tong stepped into the first floor of the mall, she was greeted by a large mutated dog that was heading straight for her. It was probably brought to the mall by its owner, but it happened to be there when the apocalypse came, and it evolved into a mutated dog.
There was still blood and bits of flesh around the mutated dog's mouth, clearly indicating that it had just had a hearty meal from a corpse.
Its front paws were also covered in blood and bits of flesh, and the ground was covered with bloody footprints as it walked.
Qiu Tong first used her supernatural ability to control the flow of time around the opponent, slowing down its movements, and then she drew her sword and stabbed it into the opponent's mouth before it could close its mouth.
Just like when I killed those mutated animals, I rotated the sword again, and the mutated animals fell to the ground and couldn't get up.
Qiu Tong waved her hand to put the corpse into her spatial storage and then walked into the supermarket.
There are very few mutant animals in the supermarket. They don't like to move between narrow shelves, but if there are many people in the supermarket, they will run in to hunt.
At this moment, the sleeping humans gradually woke up, and then the entire mall was filled with screams. With these people attracting the mutated animals, Qiu Tong's collection of supplies became much easier.
When the apocalypse arrived, it was around three or four in the afternoon. The nearby commercial streets and shopping malls were still open, and the population density was quite high.
Aside from the unfortunate humans who were eaten while unconscious, everyone else lying deep inside the mall was lucky enough to escape unscathed.
It takes about two hours to awaken one's superpowers. The awakening time for almost everyone is roughly the same. The reason she was able to wake up earlier was because Qiu Tong's otherworldly soul entered the original owner's body.
Qiu Tong only puts the goods on the shelf into her spatial storage when no one is around.
In the apocalypse, it's best not to expose your spatial abilities. "A common man is innocent, but he is guilty of possessing a treasure." She remembered that in the later stages of the apocalypse, it was common to hunt down spatial ability users, as it was said that killing a spatial ability user would allow you to instantly obtain equipment.
At that time, many innocent spatial ability users were hunted down, leading to a significant decrease in the number of spatial ability users in the later period.
The idea that killing someone would result in looting their equipment is nonsense. It just so happened that a space-type ability user was retrieving something when he was killed by his enemy. After the space he opened was destroyed, the items inside were dropped.
Strictly speaking, the only way to obtain equipment is to kill the opponent after they open a spatial dimension.
But which space-type ability user would be so foolish as to automatically activate their space and then be killed by someone else? They're not stupid.
Later, it was only through the joint efforts of the various bases that the remaining space ability users were saved.
However, these spatial ability users will be dependent on the base and used by it from now on, and will no longer have personal freedom.
As Qiu Tong reflected on these events, she became even more careful not to let anyone see her using her spatial ability to collect supplies.
She also casually grabbed a hiking backpack from the campsite and put some lightweight supplies inside. The heavy and bulky items were stored in her spatial storage, so she could use the backpack to cover herself.
Many of the items in the campsite are useful in emergencies during the apocalypse, and Qiu Tong collected a lot of them, while also leaving some for other survivors.
She only needs enough for herself; there's no need to take everything away, especially since her space doesn't have that much storage capacity.
The other empty spaces in the space are used to store other supplies; her space doesn't have enough room to take everything from the entire department store.
During this time, Qiu Tong encountered several groups of survivors. They saw that Qiu Tong could cut monsters like vegetables, so they wanted to follow her and let her protect them.
They only saw Qiu Tong effortlessly slaying monsters, but they overlooked the way Qiu Tong would lean on various objects and pant heavily after each monster kill.
Qiu Tong came here to collect supplies, not to make offerings to her ancestors, so of course she refused their unreasonable demands.
Several people tried to morally blackmail Qiu Tong, but she wasn't buying it. After catching her breath, she immediately disappeared into an area with more mutated animals, deterring them from chasing her any further.
Those people were so angry that they cursed and swore, but they didn't dare to raise their voices for fear of attracting the mutated animals.
Qiu Tong wandered around the department store for three or four hours, until it was completely dark, before slowly making her way home.
She could simply leave, but she couldn't abandon her uncle, who treated the original owner like her own daughter. She didn't want to relive the tragedy of her past life; she had to save her uncle and ensure he lived a good life.
As for her aunt and Bu Shuxin, as long as they don't cause trouble in front of her, she won't deliberately kill them.
However, not everything in the world goes as planned. When Qiu Tong rushed back to the apartment building where her uncle lived, she saw a scene that made her eyes widen in horror.
Aunt and Bu Shuxin pushed Uncle to the mouth of the mutated animals. Qiu Tong was too far away from Uncle, and she didn't have time to save him. Uncle was bitten to death by the mutated animals.
Blood gushed out in all directions, a sight that deeply stung Qiu Tong's eyes—or rather, the eyes of this body—causing Qiu Tong's eyes to redden and her whole body to tremble.
She remembered that in her previous life, her uncle died two days later while saving everyone. Why was he killed so soon this time?
The mutated animal had changed its target and was chasing after Bu Shuxin and her daughter.
Taking the opportunity, Qiu Tong ran towards her uncle. Looking at the mangled corpse, Qiu Tong felt like crying. This was probably the lingering emotion of the original owner.
Qiu Tong couldn't bear it any longer and let the remaining consciousness of this body vent freely.
She took out a brand-new bedding set from her backpack, which was actually a hidden compartment. She opened the packaging, spread out the quilt and bedspread, and then dragged her uncle's body onto it.
She carried the quilt containing her uncle on her back and searched for a quiet place to bury him.
In the apocalypse, many people are too busy taking care of themselves to find burial sites for their relatives and friends. There are corpses everywhere and no one cares. It is already a blessing to be able to be buried in peace.
Fortunately, there was a mountain next to their community, so it was easy to find land to bury the uncle. However, there were too many mutated animals on the mountain, which appeared from time to time and were a bit annoying.
