Apocalypse: After Being Reborn, I Stocked Up on All Supplies-Chapter 158 03-25 - : Mysterious Warehouse No.1
Chapter 158: Chapter 158: Mysterious Warehouse No.1
30th floor.
As the last bullet from Jiang Yan’s assault rifle ran out, the last thug who had surged up from the floors above was perfectly dealt with by her.
She couldn’t be bothered to change the magazine and simply threw the assault rifle back into Space, switching to a submachine gun equipped with tactical flashlight and scope she had seized from the attackers.
The originally empty area was now cluttered with strangely shaped corpses lying haphazardly.
A thick, red liquid covered the floor.
Fortunately, the lobby was almost entirely open to the air, so the stench wasn’t too overpowering.
...
Exhausting all its strength to toss Zhao Nianzu and his gang into the air, Hua Bao had returned.
Its direct distance from Jiang Yan couldn’t be too far, so the explosion had a noticeable impact on the building.
Nearly half of the panoramic floor-to-ceiling glass on the 30th floor was shattered by the blast wave.
Its body, completely transparent, now had two small leaves serving as hands, helping Jiang Yan collect all the submachine guns, walkie-talkies, daggers, and other equipment from the attackers.
When the explosion occurred, its body had turned into a gaseous state, which didn’t affect it much.
However, it could only attack once a natural month.
After that, if Jiang Yan encountered any extreme danger, she would have to rely on herself.
“Hehehe! Mom, I’ve finished searching their bodies for weapons and usable materials! Also, I’ve checked their pulses, they’re all thoroughly dead!”
As Hua Bao spoke, it extended its tongue and licked a few drops of blood from the corner of its mouth.
Those few drops of blood had already dried.
They were leftovers from when it Devoured Zhao Nianzu.
“Good job!”
Jiang Yan smiled and motioned for Hua Bao to come back.
Her face and body were also covered in blood.
Ashy and stinky.
Hua Bao bounced back onto her shoulder.
Normally lively, Hua Bao now looked somewhat listless with its big head, and its vines hung like a snake on her back.
But fortunately, it didn’t retract into her palm like it had after the first attack on Song Deming and Zhang Kai.
Jiang Yan guessed it might have to do with its swallowing a whole living person this time.
Last time, it only bit half of Song Deming’s head, and Jiang Yan had forcefully snatched it from its mouth.
Even so, connected to Hua Bao through thoughts, Jiang Yan still felt its overall exhaustion.
People need rest and energy replenishment when they are tired.
It believed, Hua Bao was the same.
Putting it back in Space would recover it faster, but she still needed Hua Bao to guide her.
So, it would be better to find the vault and let Hua Bao eat some gold bars first.
Thinking this, Jiang Yan decided to abandon her initial plan to go find Ye Qing and Sun Jingtao downstairs, and instead went to locate Warehouse No.1 of Golden Shield Security.
“Hua Bao, let’s go find those gold bars!”
“Hehehe! Okay, Mom! I will navigate for you!”
Hearing about food, the Cannibal Flower instantly perked up a bit, its previously tired eyes started spinning again.
It lifted its head resting on Jiang Yan’s shoulder, and one small leaf pointed towards a small door on the side of the lobby, through which the old man and Mo Siyao had exited.
That door was a deep coffee-colored with a semi-circular arch, almost invisible.
The doorframe matched the surrounding walls perfectly, and the gap was very tiny, almost impossible to notice unless you looked closely.
Jiang Yan, holding her gun and turning on the tactical flashlight, quickly walked over.
Despite having already killed the last person who rushed down from above, she did not dare to let her guard down.
As she gently pushed open the door, cold raindrops instantly smashed against her face.
Not far away, the endless dark ocean stretched into the night.
Jiang Yan then realized that the corridor leading to the helipad upstairs was spirally built on the side of the building.
And the Warehouse No.1 mentioned by Zhao Nianzu and others was accessed through a platform at the turn of the staircase.
There was an umbrella stand by the door, filled with many dark cyan large umbrellas.
These were probably prepared for the distinguished guests who traveled by private jets.
However, Jiang Yan couldn’t care less about that.
She stepped on the steel-framed stairs, braving the wind and rain with a rapid “bang bang bang” as she moved forward.
Within seconds, a very large steel door marked “Warehouse No.1” appeared in her view.
A rain shelter had been constructed there, so a large area in front of the door was dry.
Jiang Yan walked over quickly.
A small room, resembling a single-person booth, was empty at the entrance.
After failing to find anything like keys in the room, Jiang Yan turned around, raised her submachine gun, and rattled off a series of “bang bang bang!”
The locks broke. Pushing the door open with force, Jiang Yan unexpectedly found another locked silver steel door inside.
And beyond that, another of the same.
Jiang Yan slightly raised her eyebrows.
Even if this were a vault, the security seemed a bit excessive.
But the more it was like this, the more excited she became.
After all, the stricter the security and the more mysterious the precautions, the more valuable the items inside must be.
Having violently opened three silver steel doors and then a swinging glass door, a long row of tightly sealed glass cases blocked her view.
Accompanying them was a pungent odor.
Formalin again.
Jiang Yan frowned and quickly took a gas mask from Space and put it on before raising her submachine gun to scan forward.
Seeing clearly what was caught in the light of the tactical flashlight, Jiang Yan’s pupils shook in a moment.
Inside the glass cases filled with transparent liquid were human bodies.
More specifically, well-preserved corpses that had died but were kept in good condition.
Their skin was pale, and eyes tightly shut.
As if they had been selectively filtered.
Each one had delicate features and perfect body shapes.
Men, women, boys, girls, were all present.
However, the glass cases for the children were much smaller.
Stacked one on top of the other.
Men and women had clear muscle lines like mermaid lines and six-packs visible.
The children looked like skinny versions of dolls.
Perfect as they appeared, it all looked eerily sinister.
Further inside, there was a pile of glass bottles filled with transparent liquid placed on shelves.
Inside the bottles were various organs.
Eyes, kidneys, livers, hearts, intestines, pancreases…
One of the bottles was broken, and a piece of intestine had fallen to the ground.
The pungent smell probably emanated from here.
“Yue~” Jiang Yan’s back turned cold, and she retched involuntarily.
“Hua Bao, could you confirm if there are any gold bars in here?”
Th𝗲 most uptodate novels are published on ƒгeewёbnovel.com.
“Hehehe! Yes, Mom! I’ve already smelled them, just a bit further inside!”
Clearly, Hua Bao was also stunned by the sight in front of them.
It had seen similar scenes before when surfing the net and learning on its own, though only in some movies.
“Hehehe? Mom, what do they want so many human specimens for?”
“Specimens? Aren’t they used for organ transplantation?” Jiang Yan’s brow furrowed.
