Dark Blood Path

Chapter 9: A Full Load of Supplies

After killing the goblin warrior, Xiao Yu used all of his strength to free the short spear that had been lodged in the tree. This short spear was quite sharp, and given the lack of weapons, it could be brought back for others to use. He didnt immediately rush into the ruins of the school, but he first dragged the goblins body into the bushes, covered up the marks of the battle with mud, and after wiping the blood off his body, he sneaked into the woods again to hunt.

After more than an hour had passed, the sky gradually darkened. Xiao Yu made his way back to where he had started with four short spears tied to his back. He had successfully hunted down four more goblin warriors, and his strength had increased by one-third compared to when he entered the elementary level.

Its almost time. Although the goblin leader is not very intelligent, if I kill too many at once, I might be found out. It will be much harder for me to sneak back in the future if all the goblins gather around. The most crucial part is still gathering supplies.

Xiao Yu cautiously came to the southern part of the school. There were numerous human corpses scattered around, and most probably, lots of goblins were inside. However, the entire street outside the south gate of the school also appeared together with it when the earthquake happened, so it was relatively safer. According to his vague memories, the shops on the street were mainly Internet cafes, bookstores, copy shops, and supermarkets. Those supermarkets were quite large, and you could find many useful supplies inside them, which were Xiao Yus main goal.

Darkness gradually enveloped the surrounding fields, but it was not an obstacle for Xiao Yu, who activated his eyes of insight. He crept out of the woods and into the southern street without making a sound. He discovered several goblin slaves wandering around, and several scrapped vehicles on the road were seen; using them as a cover, he approached the goblins carefully, just then he suddenly burst out with amazing speed, and before they could react, a blade flashed and ended their lives.

Xiao Yu wiped the blood off his blade and walked to an overturned BMW car. He looked through the broken window; there were two people sitting in the vehicle. A young man with dyed blonde hair and a seductive woman dressed in hot low-cut suspenders that were torn, with exposed plump breasts. However, the two had hideous faces, their flesh and blood were hazy, and their bodies were so distorted that it was impossible to tell what they originally looked like.

The mans eyes were still wide open, and his empty eyes were full of unwillingness and fear.

Xiao Yu didnt seem to find anything, so he reached into the car and groped for a while, only to find an exquisite windproof lighter, half a pack of Chunghwa cigarettes, a wallet full of cash, and several boxes of condoms. He ignored the condoms and the money, took the pack of cigarettes and the lighter, put them in his pocket, and continued to walk in the direction of the supermarket.

He eventually arrived in front of one of the supermarkets. This supermarket had three floors, and half of it was currently collapsed. Fortunately, there was still a part that had not completely tumbled down. This also saved Xiao Yu from digging it out as he walked into the half supermarket to find the things he needed.

As soon as he stepped into the supermarket, he smelled a strong stench of blood.

Lying on the ground was a woman wearing work clothes from the supermarket. She died in a hideous way; most of the flesh on her neck was missing, and her yellow clothes were completely stained red with blood. There was a big hole in her belly, with most of her internal organs removed, while a string of intestines was still sticking out.

Damn it! Xiao Yu took out the bone blade and looked around, There must be goblins here whove made this mess; I must leave as soon as possible!

Xiao Yu first went to a stationery store and found a few brand new large backpacks, then to another that sold furniture supplies, various kitchen knives, fruit knives, ropes, and other such items. He also found a few large bags of edible salt, which all got stuffed into two empty backpacks; he finally moved ahead to the snack area, where all containers were tilted, and all kinds of temporary food were found everywhere on the ground.

Candyandchocolate

There were various brands of snacks all over the floor. He grabbed a few handfuls of Alpine candies randomly and then stuffed all the hundred Dove chocolates from the shelf and into the backpack. The large backpack was filled to the brim in a short while.

Jigu! Jigu!

Just then, ugly sounds echoed throughout the supermarket.

Xiao Yu came to a halt as he stopped stuffing the few compressed biscuits into his bag right away. He carefully removed them and placed them beneath his feet before reaching out and softly closing the zipper of the bag, bit by bit and slowly.

A burst of footsteps was heard trudging slowly; judging from the sound of footsteps, they seemed to be walking directly towards the door of the supermarket. Based on Xiao Yus experience, those should be three goblins, and as there was no sound of iron chains around, it meant they were all goblin warriors!

A speck of sweat slid down Xiao Yus brow; while considering an approach to dealing with this, he stuffed a dove chocolate into his mouth and swallowed it quickly without tasting it. Putting on the backpack and leaning over carefully, he saw three goblins holding short spears looking around their surroundings carefully. Their hearing was very sensitive, and they were obviously attracted by the sound he had made before.

They were hovering at the door, on high alert. In other words, if Xiao Yu made any movement, they would definitely notice him. Relying on his ability and experience, although it would be difficult to deal with three goblin warriors at the same time, it wasnt impossible to win. Its just that there are goblins everywhere, and if he fought here, the opponents would definitely cry for their friends. It was fine if just for ordinary goblins, But once the goblin leader notices, hell have to give back all snacks and his life.

Big fucking trouble!

Xiao Yu remained motionless, quietly observing the surroundings and calmly lurking in the shadows like a deadly snake poised to strike.

Jigu! Jigu! The goblins cried twice, though they didnt seem to notice anything out of the norm; they had no intention of leaving and stood puzzled at the entrance.

Creak, Creak, Creak!

Suddenly a dragging noise came from the supermarkets inside.

Jigu!

The three goblin warriors were all startled and rushed over with short spears in hand, finding the sounds source. It turned out to be a kitchen knife tied with a rope and dragged on the floor. During the dragging process, the kitchen knife made a crisp sound when it touched the floor. The goblins poor wisdom couldnt explain this weird phenomenon and instinctively chased the knife as they stopped in front of a shelf full of various iron cookware and kitchen furniture.

Almost at the same time.

Xiao Yu, who was hiding on the other side of the shelf, let go of the rope and slammed his shoulder against the shelf. With a bang, the huge and heavy metal cabinet fell down, just in time to crush the three goblin warriors who were caught off guard. Xiao Yu jumped up, stepped on the shelf, raised the blade with his hand, and cut off the neck of a goblin warrior; then he lifted the blade again with both hands, stabbed fiercely from one frame straight through another goblins heart, the last goblin warrior was reaching out to push away the shelf that was pressing on its body. Relying on its huge force, the heavy shelf got pushed up bit by bit.

fuck you! Xiao Yu, who was standing on the cabinet, did not give it any chance to resist; instead, stomping firmly on the goblins face below, he swiped his sword once more to end its life.

Three goblin warriors with impressive fighting power were killed without even a chance to fight. These set of movements werent by any means quiet, and lots of goblins had obviously been alarmed, as various strange screams were already sounding outside.

Xiao Yu quickly jumped down and pulled a short spear from the bottom of the shelf. As for the other two, he had no time to take them. He turned around and picked up the two backpacks he filled on the ground and left the supermarket for the wilderness. A large group of goblins chased him frantically, and there was even a tall figure wearing a wolf fur helmet and holding a big machete in hand. The goblin leader.

However, Xiao Yu ended the battle too quickly. From pushing down the shelves on top of the goblins to hacking them to death to grabbing the loot and running away, all took less than twenty seconds. There werent many goblins wandering on the street, and the goblin warriors in this area had already been killed by him just now.

It could be said that Xiao Yu came and went unhindered.

The goblin leaders speed was incredible, as it arrived on the street in a few leaps, only to discover the invader long gone. Enraged, it raised its head toward the sky and let out a roar. With a wave of the big machete in its hand, a cyan light cut down, and a car was knocked upside down and flew five to six meters away, only stopping after it hit another vehicle. The car was already dilapidated, and there was a frightening sword mark on it, slicing over two-thirds of the vehicle.

The power of this one attack was astonishing; the gap between the elementary realm and the first-order level felt overwhelming!

In the meantime, Jin shi led over twenty people to search for food in the woods. He followed Xiao Yus instructions and found an area where they picked handfuls of fruits that looked just like bananas, only larger in size. They also found several large fruit trees hunched together. Each of the wild fruits was fist-sized, a little bit similar to an apple, possibly colored in green because they were not ripe enough, and they tasted a little sour, barely edible.

Jin Shi instructed the people to gather the fruits on top of the trees and had another group stand guard in the surroundings.

Everyone, be careful; something is coming!

Xiao Yu rushed over with two big backpacks, waved his hands, and shouted loudly: Be at ease; its me!

Jin Shi was immediately overjoyed, oh, you are back; have you gained anything?

Xiao Yu patted his bulging backpacks and said, What do you think? he looked at him and asked, So, how is it going on your side?

Jin Shi nodded and said: The harvest was very good. According to your instructions, a large number of wild fruits have been picked and carried back; everyone now has something to eat. We are now in the process of picking a batch to store so that there will be less shortage of food in the future.

Xiao Yu glanced at the others and then said: Its getting dark, and its not safe in the forest. Lets talk when we get back.

Everyone followed him back into the underground cave. Han Kexin was happy to see Xiao Yu return, especially with a large number of supplies. And Jiang Xiaowen smiled for the first time. They gathered and began planning the distribution of resources and their future plans.

Han Kexin said: The amount of fruit gathered by Jinshi today is very large. On average, each person can take one, and there would still be a batch of leftovers. This is thanks to the locations you provided. Otherwise, I dont know how long it would have taken us to find anything. Though we can only afford everyones consumption if we include the food you brought back.

Xiao Yu put the two backpacks and five goblin spears on the ground and unzipped one of the backpacks as a batch of knives spilled out. There were five kitchen knives in total, and more than forty fruit knives of different sizes, with several large packets of edible salt. The other backpack contained six to seven catties of various candies, more than a hundred pieces of Dove chocolate, and several packs of compressed biscuits.
