Chapter 77: A Good Sword Immortal Becomes a Gun-Wielding Thug! (Please keep reading)

Commercial buildings like the Red Square Building usually have cafeterias with plenty of supplies, which should be enough for some people to survive.

But whether Jiang Xiangtong was that lucky was hard to say.

This building had thirty-six floors, and searching floor by floor was obviously not suitable; it would waste too much time.

Lu Zheng directly had Xiong Jiner provide the location of the most populated floor, then flew in through the window on his sword.

When everyone present saw a person flying into the building on a sword, they were all stunned.

A thought popped into everyone's mind.

'Could it be that an immortal has descended to rescue us?'

But the next moment, the 'sword immortal' they thought he was pulled out an assault rifle and fired three shots at the ceiling.

"Now I ask, and you answer. Don't run around or shout, or don't blame me for shooting to kill."

A perfectly good sword immortal had, in the blink of an eye, turned into a gun-wielding thug!

This change left everyone dumbfounded.

For a moment, they didn't know what to do.

Lu Zheng was very satisfied with everyone's reaction.

He could, of course, have asked politely and gradually, instead of adopting this bullying, superior attitude.

But he had worked so hard to become strong; if he still had to humbly ask each person, wouldn't his efforts to become stronger have been in vain?

He pointed the gun at someone and asked:

"Do you know Aile Culture Media Company?"

The person shook his head in panic.

"No, I don't know. I'm just a cleaner."

Lu Zheng immediately pointed the gun at the next person and said:

"If I ask ten people and no one knows, I will kill the eleventh person. And so on. If twenty people are asked and no one knows, I will kill the twenty-first person."

"So, if you want to live and know any information, tell me as soon as possible. Otherwise, when death comes, it will be too late."

The others quickly started asking around, as Lu Zheng looked fierce and unapproachable, and no one wanted to be the eleventh person to be killed.

When Lu Zheng asked the fifth person, one person voluntarily said:

"I know. Aile Culture is on the sixteenth floor. I'm the stage manager there."

Lu Zheng immediately went to him.

"Are there other people here from the same company as you?"

The person immediately pointed out four people. Lu Zheng called them together and took out a roasted duck.

"Who among you knows news of Jiang Xiangtong? Tell me, and this will be yours."

Seeing the steaming roasted duck, many people's eyes widened.

They hadn't eaten anything hot for many days, let alone seen oily food. They were truly craving it.

"Jiang Xiangtong left!"

"Vice General Manager Lin Xiao led a group of people away, and Jiang Xiangtong was among them. They didn't come back after going downstairs, and I don't know where they went."

Lu Zheng couldn't help but frown upon hearing this. If this was true, it was his first wasted trip.

Seeing Lu Zheng's displeased expression, the person quickly said:

"Boss, I'm not lying to you, it's true, they really left."

Lu Zheng casually threw the roasted duck to him, then directly left through the window on his sword.

Since the person wasn't here, he wouldn't waste any more time.

He couldn't spend too long searching for a basic material card.

Returning to the RV, the vehicle drove towards the zoo.

This place was also enveloped in black fog, and many animals, deprived of human care, had starved to death in their cages or glass enclosures.

Many were also preyed upon by insects.

A small number killed insects, obtained crystals, and evolved into mutated beasts.

Through the Beast Taming Ring, Lu Zheng controlled a second-order tiger, gave it a large number of crystals, and made it evolve to the third order.

This tiger gained the 'Golden Body' ability, which allowed every strand of its fur to turn golden, giving its body metal-like defense, and its claws became sharper like metal.

At the same time, its size also increased, making it more powerful.

Lu Zheng fed it five Strengthening Pills, making it even larger, with a shoulder height reaching a terrifying two meters.

Such a huge tiger could be ridden.

Several girls took turns letting Lu Zheng hold them as they rode on the tiger, looking very happy.

Besides the tiger, they also found some goats, rabbits, and birds.

After Shi Xueqi opened a spatial gate, they were all sent to be kept near the Jinge Building.

Then they departed from Canglan City.

Their general goal was to head west, all the way west, to find Zhang Ningzhu.

After all, she was his woman, and Lu Zheng still needed to confirm her safety.

With Double-Tailed Scorpion and the Tiger King leading the way, their speed was very fast.

The RV sped along, almost making Xiong Jiner feel like she was driving a sports car.

Although the destination was Fenglin City in Xifeng County, the interim goal was the nearby Mingyu City.

Pang Ruoyu's family was in Mingyu City, so they would rescue her family first.

Finding people was a troublesome task, but along the way, Tantai Huanyan and Tantai Xiaoyu's abilities advanced to the third order, and upon reaching the third order, they discovered they had gained an additional ability.

That is, if they wanted to find someone, their telepathy could provide a direction and location.

One can imagine that in the future, the abilities of these two sisters would allow them to communicate with people on the other side of the world, and no one would be able to escape their sisters' perception.

Their ability was highly strategic.

Lu Zheng also listed them as key cultivation targets, alongside Xiong Jiner, Zheng Jingyi, and Bai Zhihui.

He did not lack combat ability; what he lacked were these helpful auxiliary abilities.

Through the combined search of Tantai Huanyan and Tantai Xiaoyu, they pinpointed the location of Pang Ruoyu's family in a small base.

Yin Xinyao had mentioned before that the government had already established dozens of large bases, as well as many small bases.

This was one of them.

The location was on an elevated bridge in the west district.

The city's elevated roads here were very high, a considerable distance, more than ten meters above the ground, which provided a relatively safe area.

Without black fog, no insects would approach.

People lived in various vehicles.

Although the space was confined, at least they had shelter from the wind at night, even if it was like a steamer during the day.

Some people found tents and other supplies from below, and some even built makeshift shelters.

The core management consisted of a group of armed security officers, over thirty people, which was a very deterrent force.

After this period of growth, most survivors had learned the habits of the insects.

They only needed to create noise and gather on the other side of the bridge to allow a small group of people to go to the opposite exit and down below to search for supplies.

But as time went on, the surrounding supplies were quickly depleted, and to find supplies, they had to go to more distant places.

The quantity and frequency of obtaining supplies decreased, and many people were eating once every two days, barely hanging on.

Pang Ruoyu's parents were among those who were starving.

They were older and would be a hindrance when going out to search for supplies, so they could only rely on the minimum guarantee set by the security officers to survive.

Watching his wife grow weak from hunger, Pang Ruoyu's father, Pang Chong, came before Shi Shichang, the base leader and deputy captain of the security officers.

"Captain Shi, I apply to go down and search for supplies myself!"
