Novel Bin Chapter 49 Operating Table
In the post-apocalyptic world, food is undoubtedly crucial, but survival requires more than just food; it also requires medicine. In this harsh living environment, many people do not die because of zombies but rather due to illness.
Taking advantage of the 100,000-fold boost, David needs to find more medicine. He picked up the medical kit from the corner, but before he could open it, the entire room he was in began to shake violently! An earthquake? Impossible. This city hasn\'t experienced an earthquake in hundreds of years.
On the contrary, David felt that it was more like something massive walking. With a thought, the medical kit disappeared from his hands.
[You obtained a medical kit, and the 100,000-fold boost is in effect!]
[Congratulations, you obtained 100,000 medical kits!]
David didn\'t pay much attention to the system\'s words. He pressed himself tightly against the door, and at the moment the system\'s voice sounded, he saw something outside the door! He nervously swallowed a gulp of saliva.
The feet outside the door were bare, stepping on the ground, causing violent tremors in the refrigerated storage area with each step. David only caught a glimpse of the owner of those feet for a second and dared not look any further.
It was a combination of a human and an animal, with the lower half of the zombie being human while the upper half resembled a rat! Even in David\'s previous life, he had never seen something like this so early on.
He stayed close to the wall, waiting for the thing outside to leave. After what seemed like several minutes, the thing finally departed. David didn\'t dare to let his guard down as he cautiously walked out.
In the corridor, every step the zombie took left a footprint. But due to the temperature, the footprints were quickly covered by frost. That\'s why David hadn\'t noticed the zombie when he entered.
On the opposite side of the door David came out of, there was another door, but it was locked. David looked around, confirmed that the zombie wasn\'t nearby for now, and his hand touched the lock. He pulled it forcefully, and the lock broke. David pushed open the door and entered.
At the moment he entered, he understood why the zombie had a human and rat-like appearance. The room in front of him was like an operating room with a surgical table in the center. On the table lay a corpse and a rat\'s carcass nearby. And on the table, there was also a syringe, halfway inserted into the corpse\'s hand, as if someone had left in a hurry.
David closed the door behind him and walked to the front of the surgical table. The corpse on the table was a normal human corpse that hadn\'t undergone any mutations. The syringe in its hand contained green liquid. Even more bizarrely, the corpse hadn\'t decayed yet! Every piece of skin on it was intact.
David didn\'t observe any further and instead focused his attention on some boxes in the room. They might contain medicine. With this possibility in mind, David walked towards the boxes. When he opened them, his eyes brightened! Indeed, they were medicines!
Inside the boxes were bottles of medicine, and in the next moment, all the medicine bottles in the boxes were stored in David\'s space. Likewise, these medicine bottles were also multiplied by the 100,000-fold boost! As David stood up and turned around, ready to leave, the entire room shook violently once again.
This guy is not easy to deal with. While this zombie may have intermediate crystals on its corpse, David\'s current abilities are still too weak. It would be too difficult for David to face this intermediate zombie alone.
Just as David was planning to quietly wait for the zombie to leave, he heard the footsteps of the zombie approaching the room where he was. David looked around and quickly hid behind the boxes. Several boxes were stacked together, perfectly blocking David\'s entire figure.
As David hid, the door was suddenly slammed open. The zombie rushed in and immediately noticed the corpse on the operating table. Its eyes lit up and without hesitation, it pounced on the corpse.
David remained silent, listening to the sound of chewing. He patiently waited without any sense of urgency...
It had been a while since David left the house. During this time, Arnold and Sophie stayed at home without any unusual occurrences. Until now, they heard a series of knocks on their door from outside.
Bang! Bang! Bang! "Is anyone home?" Sophie, lying in Arnold\'s arms, was startled by the knocking sound. You see, zombies have good hearing, so they didn\'t dare to speak too loudly at home, afraid of attracting zombies.
"Honey, what..." Sophie showed a frightened expression.
Arnold, on the other hand, stood up and reassured her, "I\'ll go check it out." With that, he picked up a long knife nearby and walked to the door.
Arnold looked through the peephole, and his expression became complicated. Standing outside the door was the son of the stranger who had come asking for food earlier.
"Kid, why aren\'t you at home? What are you doing here?"Arnold asked cautiously.
Tears welled up in the corners of the boy\'s eyes as he spoke and wiped them away. "Uncle, my dad collapsed at home, and I don\'t know what to do. Can you help me check on him?"
Sophie walked over and happened to hear the conversation. Looking at the boy outside the door, she felt sorry for him. "Honey, what should we do? He\'s probably the only one left in his family."
Arnold looked at the boy and hesitated. Moreover, the boy was crying outside the door, and at any moment, he could attract zombies and get torn apart.
He wanted to help, but David\'s words kept lingering in his mind. What if this was a deliberate trap by that man? But this was still a child! Would parents really put their own children in danger? Arnold gritted his teeth and opened the door. "Kid, let\'s go and check on your dad. Stop crying." As he spoke, the boy sniffled and nodded.
"Honey, I\'ll go with you," Sophie held onto Arnold\'s clothes and whispered. Arnold couldn\'t bear to let Sophie go with him.
He gently patted Sophie\'s hand, turned around, went back into the room, put on the armor left by David, and said to her, "Stay at home and wait for me. If I don\'t come back, don\'t open the door."
With that, Arnold closed the door, took the long knife, and followed the boy. Sally, across, saw everything through the peephole.
