Immediately, the seven awakened people gathered together and began to discuss countermeasures.

In the darkness, Li Nan was the first to speak.

"According to me, this matter cannot be reported to the company. We have to get the supplies back."

"Um."

The other six people nodded, knowing the stakes. If the company's upper management knew, the consequences would be serious.

But the young man before hesitated to question.

"Brother Nan, I don't have any clue now, how can we find it?"

"We will definitely find clues. With so much material stolen, there is no way there will be no trace at all."

Li Nan analyzed and said: "And the 'monster' is probably still in the mall. We can mobilize survivors to look for it together. I don't believe I can't find it."

"Survivors? They are almost scared to death. How can they have the courage to find monsters? Those people will definitely not agree."

Xiao Liu said.

Li Nan frowned.

"You have to agree even if you don't agree! Our company is not Notre Dame. The purpose of saving them is to transport supplies. Now is the end, and only those who are valuable deserve to live!"

After the words fell, the air suddenly became quiet, and no one spoke anymore.

The six awakened ones already understood what he meant.

Even if the survivors are used as cannon fodder, the monsters still need to be found. After all, there are hundreds of millions of supplies. Let alone the end of the world, even in normal times... it is more important than a few human lives.

........

After the discussion, Li Nan returned to the survivors again.

"Everyone, listen to me. We just discussed it. Now that the supplies are lost, we can't just sit back and wait. In times of crisis, we should unite as one to get the things back."

"What?"

The people who were still whispering immediately became quiet.

Looking for supplies?

That's right?

"This is all nonsense. There may be monsters in the mall."

"Whoever wants to go can go, but I won't go anyway!"

"That's right, all five awakened ones were killed. We are just ordinary people. We will definitely die when we encounter monsters."

"Dealing with monsters is what an awakened person should do, and I'm not awakened..."

"..."

Listening to people's discussions, Li Nan's face turned completely gloomy, and his heart burned with anger as he spoke word by word.

"If you don't want to go, you have to go. I have no obligation to protect you. If you don't want to contribute and just want to wait and enjoy the benefits, I will throw you outside the mall."

"Huh? This..."

People were shocked, seeing his posture, it was not like he was joking.

Moreover, the sense of oppression from the awakened ones was so strong that they did not dare to resist at all.

Of course, some of them agree.

"We can only survive now because of the supplies in the warehouse. There is a lot of food in there, so we should go look for it."

"Well, there are so many of us, what's there to be afraid of?"

"What if the monster just has weird abilities and is weak in combat?"

"Well, that makes sense. You have to have a weakness after all. You can't be strong in everything."

"...."

People were talking in low voices.

Seeing that the crowd had some fighting spirit, Li Nan decided to give them a slap in the face and a sweet date.

"I, Li Nan, promise that if anyone can find supplies or provide useful clues, Tektronix will reward him with enough food for a year!"

"Wow! One year??"

Everyone looked surprised. In this last day, even though they had been guarding the warehouse before, they had always been frugal.

Only fixed rations are given every day to ensure that they will not die of hunger.

Food that can last for a year is really precious.

Several of the strong men suddenly felt as if they had been injected with blood.

"Let's go! I want to see where the monster is?"

"Well, let's go find him."

"Sneaky means you have sneak attack skills!"

"..."

Everyone turned on their flashlights or used their mobile phones to illuminate. Countless beams of light intertwined and dispersed the surrounding darkness.

They teamed up in small groups and began to disperse and search.

Among the crowd, Lin Dong stared at the seven awakened ones, planning to find an opportunity to kill them.

His figure retreated and merged into the inky darkness.

This mall is too big.

It can usually accommodate tens of thousands of customers.

The two hundred survivors seemed very thin. They became more and more scattered as they walked away, and some even left them alone and hid secretly.

But Lin Dong's attention is not on them, because... these people are not delicious!

The seven awakened ones were very cautious and always stayed together and never separated.

"Brother Nan, why do I always feel...that someone is following us behind us?"

A female awakener frowned.

And when he looked back, it was dark behind him and there was nothing.

Li Nan opened his mouth to comfort.

"Don't scare yourself, you're just too nervous."

"Well, Brother Nan is right."

Xiao Liu nodded and agreed, "When I used to walk at night, I always felt like there was someone behind me. The more I thought about it, the more scared I became. Just don't think about it."

"Really?"

The girl expressed doubts.

As they searched, they went from the lobby on the first floor to the sixth floor, but they still found nothing.

"It's so weird!"

Li Nan frowned, had he really seen a ghost?

Xiao Liu said thoughtfully.

"I guess... that monster must have left. He looted so much supplies and killed five of us. Why not stay here?"

"Well, that's troublesome."

Li Nan frowned and looked down from the railing on the sixth floor. The view here was very good, and he could directly see the lobby on the first floor and the conditions on each floor.

There were many survivors, wandering around with flashlights.

So far there have been no casualties.

"Maybe, he really left..."

"call--"

After hearing this, the female awakening breathed a long sigh of relief and relaxed her tense nerves. "I have been searching for half an hour. I have been holding back my urine. I didn't dare to urinate just now. I will go to the toilet first."

"Go ahead."

Li Nan nodded, but felt a little uneasy thinking about it, "Chen Li, you go with Xiaojing, the two of you will be taken care of."

"Uh...that's okay."

Chen Li spread her hands, looking helpless.

Do you think so?

You still have to take care of yourself when you go to the toilet...

The two of them turned a corner without even going to the bathroom. It was the end of the world anyway, so they had to find a place where no one was around to solve the problem.

In the deserted corridor, the environment is even darker.

But the eyesight of an awakened person is beyond that of ordinary people, and they can barely see clearly.

"Hurry up!"

Chen Li urged and turned around. After all, no one wants to watch others go to the toilet.

"Um."

Xiaojing agreed and came to the root of the wall.

She had just unbuttoned her pants and was about to squat down when suddenly, an inexplicable feeling of uneasiness came over her. It was the intuition of an awakened person, telling her that she was in extreme danger!

"dirty stuff..."

In the darkness, whispers came from out of thin air.

Then, a young figure slowly appeared, with a pale face and a hint of contempt in his cold eyes.

As if to accuse her, how could she urinate and defecate anywhere?

"you..."

Xiaojing was extremely nervous, and she was about to use her superpower as soon as she raised her hand.

But a dagger has been inserted into his temple...
