The next two days were very uneventful. The Venomous Scorpion Flies and Skeletal Monster Birds that arrived on schedule every night even became a source of amusement for the group, who would bet on them.
After the initial panic, everyone in the supermarket had also reacted. These so-called bio-monsters weren't as terrifying as they had imagined.
Humans could be considered the spirits of all things. Back in the primitive era, they could rely on stone axes and spears to kill off the beasts of the Ice Age, let alone modern humans who had developed over nearly ten thousand years!
Even if their physical fitness might not be as good as that of the constantly fighting primitives, at least their tools were much more advanced than stone axes and spears.
The Venomous Scorpion Flies and Skeletal Monster Birds, the lowest-level trash of the monster world, were the most convenient for newcomers to practice on.
Li Qingyuan also had two rare days of leisure, and he took the opportunity to re-train.
With three points of agility added, his speed and nerve reaction abilities could definitely reach the level of an ordinary special agent. However, because his speed had suddenly increased by half, his body was somewhat uncoordinated, and he needed a buffer period to slowly adapt.
This discovery also made Li Qingyuan sigh with emotion. Luckily, this mission forced him to allocate points early. If he had really planned to learn from Voldemort and save up dozens or even hundreds of points to spend all at once, his body might have directly collapsed!
The situation looked promising. After locking Mrs. Carmody and her two brainless followers in the Isolation Room the day before yesterday, the entire supermarket was now filled with a sense of hope.
Honestly, these Americans always clamored about their so-called freedom and human rights, but when Li Qingyuan expressed his willingness to reason with them, everyone instantly showed unconditional support.
Faced with a choice between Mrs. Carmody, who babbled on and on about encouraging others to die every day, and a mysterious and unpredictable international police officer with amazing skills, did they even need to think about it?
Everyone actually had a devil residing in their hearts, it was just suppressed under normal circumstances.
Now that someone was willing to take on this responsibility, of course, everyone was happy to do so.
The three women were locked in the cramped Isolation Room, and no one knew what the smell inside was like.
But this was a minor issue. It was already considered merciful that they hadn't been thrown out to feed the monsters.
"Li, want a beer?" David asked him with a smile.
There was no shortage of food in the supermarket. Such a large supermarket could easily last for two months, let alone ten days!
Especially after Lawyer Norton stated that he would represent the town and file a lawsuit against national institutions after the crisis was over, which would definitely ensure everyone received a huge compensation, the morale in the supermarket was almost at an all-time high.
To be honest, if they weren't worried about the legendary giant monsters outside, these people might have been ready to hold parties every day!
They had plenty to eat and drink, no annoying work, and although they were trapped in the supermarket, they had hundreds of fellow citizens around them, so they didn't feel depressed.
The monster attacks at night felt more like entertainment. Thinking that they would be able to retire on the compensation money after just a few more days, even David, whose wife had died, couldn't help but feel a little excited.
Although this thought seemed inhumane, for freedom-loving Americans, the dead were gone, and it was more important to cherish the present.
Ms. Amanda had hit a brick wall with Li Qingyuan for two days in a row, and now, she had given up on these self-defeating actions, instead flirting with David.
Considering that if the supermarket wasn't packed with people right now, the two of them might have already found a secluded corner to do... unspeakable things!
"Li, cheer up, why the long face?" David asked with a smile, handing Li Qingyuan a beer.
Humans are highly adaptable creatures. The first night, seeing those Venomous Scorpion Flies and Skeletal Monster Birds could make everyone pee their pants, but now, even women could laugh while smashing them with baseball bats.
"I think something might happen today!" Li Qingyuan said, taking the beer David offered, popping the tab, and taking a swig.
The system would never let him get through seven days so easily, not a chance. Today was the fourth day, and so far, there were still over two hundred and thirty people left in the supermarket, and none of the side quest targets had died.
If he could make it to the final act, he'd get over thirty reward points. If he spent them all, his physical stats could probably go toe-to-toe with someone like the legendary Sun Wukong!
He figured the system couldn't possibly be that kind.
"Come on! You're just thinking too much, being a special agent for too long!" David started to reach out to pat his shoulder, but thought better of it, shrugging with a smile.
"Ah!"
However, the scream that immediately came from the Isolation Room instantly slapped David's face.
"What's wrong?" Everyone immediately ran towards the Isolation Room, weapons in hand. In any case, these people's spirits were clearly much stronger than they were three days ago.
At the very least, when encountering this kind of sudden situation, everyone would pick up their weapons and prepare to fight back, instead of just screaming and running around.
Seeing Li Qingyuan walk over, everyone immediately made way, as it was better to leave professional matters to professionals.
Shali stood aside, trembling and crying. She was responsible for delivering food.
In any case, Mrs. Carmody was considered one of the side quest targets. If they could avoid killing her, that would be best.
To be honest, if it weren't for the difficulty in controlling the force of his blows, Li Qingyuan would have preferred to turn her into a vegetable and then safely get through these seven days.
It was just that it was too difficult to turn someone into a vegetable, so he could only use the clumsy method of locking her in the Isolation Room.
"What's wrong?" David asked, grabbing Shali's hands. This action caused Ms. Amanda, who was standing behind him, to instantly brighten.
Bang!
Shali was still trembling. Li Qingyuan, not bothering to comfort her, kicked the door open.
Inside the Isolation Room, everything was white. Spiderwebs hung everywhere, and Mrs. Carmody and the two women with unstable mental states had been transformed into cocoon-like objects hanging in the air!
Parasitic Spiders!
Seeing this, he immediately remembered.
It seemed the Pharmacy next door had become a nest for the Parasitic Spiders.
These Parasitic Spiders, when fully grown, were about the size of a washbasin. Their combat strength was similar to the Skeletal Monster Birds, belonging to the lower end of the monster food chain.
But spiders are masters of stealth and concealment. Compared to the Skeletal Monster Birds, which are rather dim-witted, spiders are like the shadow hunters of the animal kingdom.
The evening update time has been changed to nine o'clock. Just a heads-up!
