Apocalypse: Transmigrated General's Daughter Uses Space to Survive-Chapter 72 - 71: Solo Mission Turned into Dual Mission
Chapter 72 - 71: Solo Mission Turned into Dual Mission
Chu Miao entered the elevator and pressed the button for the ground floor. She thought that it was better to use it for the last time so freely because starting from tomorrow with the power rationing, she would have to start climbing stairs.
But that wasn't a big challenge to her. It was just another form of workout to strengthen her body.
The elevator didn't go straight to the ground floor but made a stop on the 19th floor. When the elevator door opened, Ye Xuan was standing outside waiting to enter.
"Hi, Chu Miao." He greeted her as he walked into the elevator.
"Hey, Ye Xuan." Chu Miao replied.
Over the past few weeks, their relationship had gone from being complete strangers to acquaintances, and now they could be considered friends.
Of course, Ye Xuan's goal was more than being a friend to the beauty. He wanted a more intimate status.
But for the time being, he was satisfied with the status quo.
"Are you going out to look for supplies? Why are you alone?" Ye Xuan asked as it was the first time since he moved into this apartment seeing her leaving the house alone.
She was always with the rest of the family, or at least, with her brother.
"They are cultivating and I didn't want to bother them. I have been bored at home doing nothing and thought of going out to train and kill a few zombies." Chu Miao replied as she turned to look at the man standing beside her.
"Are you also going out to train?" Chu Miao asked. If she wasn't sure that there were no surveillance cameras in the hall of the 20th floor belonging to others she would have thought that this guy had installed a camera to monitor her movements.
They run into each other almost every time she goes out. This time she was going out quite late at night. She had assumed that even if it was a coincidence, this time she would not meet him.
She didn't expect to run into him again at the elevator door.
"Mmm...I haven't gone out to train for two days. After I advanced to the second level, my superpower was a bit unstable even though it slightly got better after the fight with the mutated zombie.
But I still felt that something was not right, so I spent the last two days cultivating and I finally feel that everything is fine.
Today I decided to go out and hunt slightly powerful zombies to help me solidify my superpower. Grandpa Chu said it was important to have a solid foundation." Ye Xuan explained.
Chu Miao then understood why he was going out.
"Mmm...it's indeed important to have a good foundation when it comes to any type of cultivation. A weak foundation could lead to stagnation in the future."
"Where are you going to train?" Ye Xuan asked.
Today was different from other times when he deliberately created opportunities to meet her. This time he didn't plan anything.
It was pure coincidence that they met, but he didn't see it that way. To him, this was fate. And he liked it and decided to use this opportunity to grow their relationship closer. Especially since, this time, there are no light bulbs around them.
"Zeyi Mall. I think it's a good spot for training." Replied Chu Miao.

"That's a good spot indeed. There should be enough zombies to fight to the heart's content, but not too many to pose a life-threatening danger." It seemed that their analysis was the same.
"How about we go together? We can look after each other in case of unforeseen circumstances." Ye Xuan suggested when he saw the opportunity. He wanted to be alone with her for a few hours, even if they would just be killing zombies.
Chu Miao thought that his suggestion made sense. Even though she had planned to go alone, no one knows what might happen when things change without warning.
Thus, she accepted his suggestion. Besides, she knew that when her family came out to their seclusion and found out that she had gone zombie hunting alone, she'd be in big trouble.
But if she went along with Ye Xuan, they wouldn't say anything. They had enough trust in him to protect her in case something came up.
"Okay, let's go together. There are enough zombies to go around."
At this moment they had just walked out of the elevator. Some people were sitting outside the building to catch a breeze since the temperature had gone down after night fell.
With the temperature falling to 35°, people felt like they had walked onto a beach.
Before the extreme heat, a temperature of 30° would have been considered too high, yet now people are celebrating because it was at 35°.
Humans would never be content no matter what.
The community had been cleared of all zombies and the gates were locked, so those people sitting outside had no fear of being ambushed.
Chu Miao just cast them a fleeting glance and kept walking. These were the same people who had refused to leave their house before and only came out after all the zombies were cleared to enjoy other people's labor.
"Let's take my car. Wait for me to get it from the parking lot." Ye Xuan suggested, and after getting an affirmative answer from Chu Miao, he turned and walked towards the parking lot on the underground floor of their building.
Every unit in the building had two designated parking spaces, which came in handy, especially in the extreme heat where one could not park their car in the open.
"Miss, are you going out to look for supplies?" One of the aunties basking in the night breeze called out to Chu Miao and asked.
Chu Miao looked at her and answered perfunctorily. "Yes."
She wasn't interested in socializing with these idle people.
"Then can you bring me a box of noodles? I'll definitely pay you." The auntie continued.
Before Chu Miao could respond, another auntie with slightly emaciated cheeks followed with her own demand.
