Although this theory was very attractive, Liu Yun didn’t dare to be careless.

Glancing at the unconscious Ru Jianxiao and the sleeping Ye Xuan’s pale face, she shook her head, then took a deep breath to calm down.

’Calm down, Liu Yun. Let’s focus on our current situation first. Before I test my theory, I should help the big boss and the mysterious reborner recover first.’

Reordering her priorities, Liu Yun closed her status panel, then looked at the transparent blue screen displaying the System Store.

Looking at the icons displayed on the System Store’s main interface, Liu Yun’s eyes fell on the Medical Center Section.

Since the first time she unlocked the System Store, she hadn’t checked the Medical Center Section yet. Curious to see if there were any medicines that could be used to stop Ye Xuan’s bleeding, she pressed the icon.

In the next second, the blue screen changed, and a row of icons appeared.

Liu Yun clicked on the Basic Medicine Section and began scrolling down as she read the names of the products displayed there.

’Antibiotics, allergy medicine, fever medicine, diarrhea medicine... Oh, there are even medicines for treating heatstroke, plant poisoning, and insect bites.’

After finishing checking the Basic Medicine Section, she exited and opened the First Aid Section. Unlike the Basic Medicine Section, the First Aid Section had fewer products but a wider variety.

Besides medicine for treating external wounds and minor illnesses, there were also medical supplies such as gauze pads, antiseptic wipes, povidone-iodine, medical tape, and even surgical tool kits.

Liu Yun read the detailed information of the products displayed in the First Aid Section, then bought one box of gauze pads, one roll of medical tape, one pack of antiseptic wipes, and one bottle of povidone-iodine, spending a total of 26 System Points.

Ding!

[Thank you for your purchase, Player. The items have been delivered to your Inventory.]

Now that she had bought the basic first-aid supplies, Liu Yun went back to check the Basic Medicine Section.

As someone who had spent years living in a hospital room, Liu Yun was quite confident in her basic medical knowledge.

Without hesitation, she bought three pills of acetaminophen, three pills of antibiotics, and three pills of ibuprofen, just in case Ye Xuan developed a fever later, spending a total of 90 System Points.

Ding!

[Thank you for your purchase, Player. The items have been delivered to your Inventory.]

Although the medicines were far more expensive than the medical supplies she bought from the First Aid Section, Liu Yun didn’t feel bad about spending the System Points.

She had no other choice. Preventing the future Zombie Emperor from dying and turning into a zombie was more important than saving her System Points at this moment.

Now that she had bought all the useful medicines available in the System Store, Liu Yun faced another problem.

How could she administer the medical supplies and give Ye Xuan the medicine without attracting unwanted attention from the soldiers and other survivors?

Just when she was in a dilemma, a soldier standing guard suddenly announced, "Everyone, we have something to announce."

When the soldier said this, all survivors looked at him.

Receiving their attention, the soldier continued, "We have left the perimeter of Ji City."

The moment the survivors heard the announcement, they cheered and cried with relief.

"Thank God! We are finally saved!"

While some were celebrating with joy, most were crying in sadness after losing their friends, family members, or teammates.

A brief moment of joy mixed with sadness passed before the soldier raised his hand and said, "Quiet, please."

At his words, the survivors stopped talking and turned to look at him once more.

Looking at them, the soldier continued, "It will dawn in an hour. Taking advantage of the zombies’ lack of mobility, we won’t rest for now and will continue on our way. If nothing unexpected happens, we should be able to reach the Lie Huo Military Base in five days."

He paused for a second, scanned the survivors’ faces, then added, "Along the way, we will search for supplies, but we won’t provide any supplies to you."

When the survivors heard that the military wouldn’t provide them with any supplies, they began to protest.

A middle-aged man in his early forties stood up from his seat and shouted at the soldier, "Didn’t your leader promise to provide us with food and water when we joined the team earlier?! How could you go back on your word?!"

The second he said this, the other survivors also joined the protest.

A thin middle-aged woman suddenly wailed as she hugged her young grandson tightly.

"Heavens! How are we supposed to survive without food and water? How can an old woman like me provide for my grandson alone? We are not going to survive!"

The soldier calmly watched the survivors protest and cry for a while before suddenly opening the back door of the military truck.

Seeing this, the survivors were frightened into silence, and their protests stopped abruptly.

Standing to the side, the soldier pointed outside and calmly said, "Those who don’t want to live anymore or are dissatisfied with our decision can jump down right now."

Frightened by the soldier’s cold words and stern expression, the survivors quickly lowered their heads in fear.

Looking at their cowardly postures, the soldier gestured to his comrade to close the door, then said, "Those who want to join us in searching for supplies can report to me. However, we won’t be responsible for your safety."

"We can bring you guys out, but whether you can make it back alive or not will depend entirely on you."

After he said this, low discussions and dissatisfied murmurs could be heard among the survivors. However, none of them dared to protest anymore.

Seeing that nobody made a sound, the soldier nodded in satisfaction. "Very well. Registration will be open when we stop later."

After announcing the news, the soldier stopped paying attention to the survivors.

Sitting in the corner of the military truck, Liu Yun’s eyes lit up.

’This is a good opportunity to test my theory, find more crystal cores, and stock up on supplies!’
