"Okay, it's fine. Keep driving."

Hongtang's eyes lit up as she watched the zombies charging towards her, writhing and twisting.

Would you be a fool not to order crystal cores delivered to your door?

"Brother Ha, Tengteng, Sisi, I'm leaving the outside to you." After putting the kids out of the car, the little ones ran happily towards the zombies.

Pfft, crackle, bang, bang—various sounds rose and fell.

Soon, Sisi wove a net from the vines and returned to Hongtang's side with more than a dozen crystal cores in her arms.

"Swish!" Sisi wrapped the tips of the vines around Hongtang's fingertips and jumped around happily.

"You mean there's a large group of zombies hiding in that building over there?" Hongtang looked in the direction Sisi was pointing.

It was a five-story shopping mall, more than half of which was buried under ice and snow.

Xue Li slowed down and asked, "Boss, are we going to go fight zombies?"

"No need, let the cubs go." Hongtang rolled down the car window, leaned out, and with a wave of her hand, a pack of mutated wolves appeared around the vehicle.

The massive, mountain-like bodies, the fierce and ruthless eyes, and the orderly pack of wolves made Xue Li's heart pound.

The boss's space was hiding dozens of ferocious mutated wolves, whose fighting power was comparable to a small army!

Although he had seen the wolf king Bai Xue before, he had only captured one mutated wolf for Hong Tang, and he never expected it to be an entire wolf pack.

"Boss, with so many mutated wolves appearing all at once, won't that attract the attention of others?"

There are other superpowered teams and survivors searching for supplies in the city nearby, and they might just discover the existence of these little cuties.

"It's alright, they're no match for the kids even if they find out." Hongtang had Sisi take the speaker off the roof of the car and put it in Baixue's mouth so that it could hold it.

"Bai Xue, see that building over there? There are lots of zombies inside, the kind with crystal cores in their brains. Take your wolf warriors and bring back every single crystal core. If you encounter any you can't defeat, run! We'll be waiting for you up ahead. Go now!"

Hongtang waved to Baixue, who then led the wolf pack away. Sisi jumped onto Baixue's forehead, hid in her fur, and led the wolves the way.

What a seamless, cross-species communication! Xue Li watched from the side, grinning from ear to ear. This apocalypse was too fantastical; perhaps he should also raise some plants or animals with explosive combat power.

Considering my own resources and the lack of sufficient supplies and space, I decided to give up.

They floored the accelerator, the car practically took off, and soon they caught up with the main force. It turned out the main force had also encountered a horde of zombies; they had just finished a fierce battle and realized Hongtang and the others hadn't followed.

As soon as the young soldiers of the Flying Tigers saw Hongtang and the others catching up, they excitedly went forward to ask what had happened. Captain Chen Qi had specifically instructed him to take good care of the two, but he had lost sight of them. Only when he saw that they were alright did he feel relieved.

The rest of the journey went smoothly without any further mishaps. An hour later, the group arrived at the port.

The mission was simple: to search for various supplies. After Chen Qi, as the team leader, reiterated the precautions to everyone, the groups split up and went off to carry out their tasks.

Seeing that most of the military personnel had left, Hongtang summoned back the cubs that were hiding nearby, put the wolf pack into her spatial storage, and left only Ha Ge outside.

"Boss, which direction should we go next?" Xue Li asked, looking at the vast expanse of white ice.

Hongtang politely declined Chen Qi's invitation, saying she wanted to go alone, so he didn't give her any hints.

"Which way to go? That's easy." Hongtang took a branch from her spatial storage and threw it on the ground.

After the tree branch rolled a few times on the ice and came to a stop, Hongtang pointed to the two ends the branch was pointing to and said, "You go over there, I'll go over here."

"Huh? The boss wants me to go with Chen Qi and the others, and you go find the crude oil tanker yourself?" Xue Li looked in the direction Hong Tang was telling him to go, which was clearly the direction Chen Qi and the others had left in.

"Congratulations, you got it right. You're sure to gain a lot by following Chen Qi and the others."

The military's simultaneous deployment of so many personnel and vehicles suggests they have a confirmed location for the supplies. As the team leader, Chen Qi's responsibilities must be of paramount importance. Therefore, having Xue Li accompany Chen Qi is definitely the right decision.

As for why she didn't let Xue Li leave with them earlier, well, she just realized that the two of them could act separately.

"Then be careful, boss. I'll leave the car with you." Since Hongtang wanted to send him away, Xue Li didn't hesitate and readily agreed.

"No need, I have a car."

Hongtang left the heater to Xue Li and gave him 5 heat source stones, while also telling him that crystal cores could also power the heater.

Xue Li was overjoyed. He had been eyeing this unassuming little thing for a long time. Small, exquisite, energy-efficient, and with excellent heating effect, it was a high-tech product he had never seen before. Now, his boss had actually given it to him. Moreover, it could be powered by crystal cores—it was practically a heating marvel for a post-apocalyptic, icy world.

After Xue Li left, Hong Tang strolled off in one direction.

She had already used her mental powers to explore this frozen sea area. She had also located the crude oil tanker 30 miles to the southeast, 132 meters below the surface.

The location is easy to find, but how do we get the tanker into the space?

The furthest distance she can retrieve objects remotely is 60 meters, but on the ice, she has no way to store them.

The ice layer is currently about 19 meters thick, and it is still 113 meters away from the location of the oil tanker on the seabed. Although Hongtang possesses mutated ice energy and can convert ice into water, she is not very confident in operating it.

Because of her multiple supernatural abilities, Hongtang primarily uses spatial, wood, and mental energy. Fire and ice energy are used only as auxiliary energy sources and are not used frequently.

Sigh, having too many superpowers isn't all good, Hongtang thought, troubled by her uneven strengths. It seems she'll need to practice developing a more well-rounded approach in the future.

With a few teleports and spatial transfers, Hongtang quickly arrived at the target location.

Unfortunately, there were two cars parked on the ice at that moment. Hongtang recognized one of them as the same car that had thrown the stereo at her earlier.

Hmph, I haven't even gone looking for them yet, and they've already delivered themselves to my doorstep.

Is this because they saw that I was alone and thought I was easy to deal with, so they started by attacking me?

"Host, the Medicine Saint Pill Master from the cultivation world left a message asking you to send him a few more zombies, as the previous two were destroyed." My sister's soft, sweet voice sounded in my ear.

"Okay, tell him to wait a little while, and give it to him within two days." Hong Tang was a little embarrassed. There were no zombies at the moment, but there were a few wretched bugs.

Eight people quickly got out of the two cars opposite and surrounded Hongtang, including a woman.

"Hehe, little beauty, we finally caught you alone. You're in our hands today, and you're not going to have a good time!"

"Li Lao Er, you talk too much nonsense!"

"Sanmazi, you idiot, why would you announce your name when you're robbing someone?"

"Shut up, you two. We need to get down to business."

The group chattered away, completely ignoring Hongtang.

"Meow~ Meow!" Ha Ge was fed up.

What are these little bugs making such a racket about? They're making even this stupid woman frown. Let me give you a lightning bolt first!

Hongtang quickly pressed down on Ha Ge's little paw, signaling it to wait and see.

Suddenly, the temperature plummeted, and the howling wind grew louder as it approached, terrifying and suffocating.

A fierce wind swept through the air, carrying swirling snowflakes that obscured the ground and sky, gradually reducing visibility.

Hongtang felt a surge of silvery-white air beneath her feet, so dazzling that it quickly engulfed her feet.

"Oh no, it's White-haired Wind!" someone shouted.
