Reborn in the end of the world, I scavenged in the empty city and bought for free

Even with a gas mask on, he couldn't stand the pungent smell for a while. There was a rotten and sour smell in the sewer, mixed with the feces of mutant rats or black-shelled cockroaches, which made Gu Tongwan's stomach feel so sour that he almost vomited.

Fortunately, he managed to hold back in the end, pointed the flashlight he had put on his head at the road on the wall, and with a triangular bayonet in one hand, he moved forward step by step.

There is actually only one road from the hotel to the residence, but it takes at least one or two hundred meters to get from the sewer to the hotel kitchen, and there are many twists and turns in it. She can only rely on her memory to grope for the location of the kitchen in the sewer.

She had to get out of the sewer within ten minutes, not only because of the bad smell here, but also because staying here for a long time might cause respiratory problems. Even if wearing a gas mask, the human body would not be able to bear it for a long time.

The sewer was very dark, and the only source of light was the flashlight above her head. She bit the tip of her tongue hard, trying to focus her attention on the front.

Occasionally, sharp grinding sounds and one or two "squeaks" can be heard from the sewers. They must be the dirtiest mutant rats hiding in the sewers.

In the winter, these things not only do not hibernate, but they will find places to survive, such as dark sewers, or relatively damp dilapidated houses. Some will even live in human residences. As long as they want to hide, they always find a way, just like the pervasive virus. The reproduction rate of mutant mice is terrifying. Their pregnancy period is only two weeks, and they can get pregnant at least 7-8 times a year, which means that at least a mutant mouse of one and a half months can give birth to a litter of baby mice, with six or seven in each litter. This reproduction rate is much higher than that of ordinary house mice before mutation. Once a plague breaks out, the consequences will be unimaginable.

However, since a small-scale animal tide caused by a rat plague broke out in the base a year ago, the base now sends a professional pest control company to carry out four pest eradication operations in the major sewers and dead corners of the base, with rat eradication as the main goal.

Over the long term, rat eradication operations have been effectively controlled, and even if the temperature continues to rise, rat plagues will no longer occur.

In fact, before the end of the world, the animal that Gu Tongwan feared and hated the most was rats. At one point, even pet rats like chinchillas were in her minefield. However, during the end of the world, the only thing that could keep her alive was rat meat. She lived in the sewers, drank sewage, and even ate dried roasted rat meat.

She would never forget the pungent smell produced when burning rat meat, a foul smell mixed with a rotten smell, and even the smell could be smelled when she put it in her mouth. No matter how much water she drank or how many times she rinsed her mouth, she could not get rid of the disgusting smell.

Although I got the portable space in advance in this life, the cold memory of living in the sewer and eating rat meat in the first life can never be erased.

Thinking of this, Gu Tongwan quickened his pace, wanting to escape from this narrow and dark sewer as soon as possible.

But just when the front was about to turn, a black shadow swooped over from the left. Fortunately, Gu Tongwan was alert in an instant. He stepped back slightly and immediately raised his hand to slash and stab the thing hard. He felt the blade easily cut something, followed by a crazy "squeaking" sound.

A mutant mouse, about twice the size of a normal mouse, curled up at the sticky feet and died in a moment.

But the danger was far from over, and more pairs of scarlet eyes seemed to be visible in the darkness.

Perhaps it was because the smell of blood of the mutant rat she killed attracted more animals in the sewer. If the rats gathered together, it would be more dangerous for her. Once the rats rushed towards her, it would be difficult to kill them all one by one in the cramped sewer.

Gu Tongwan kicked the mutant rat's body forward fiercely, and she squinted her eyes and ran to the left. She did not look back during the whole process, but she could hear the gnawing and biting sounds coming from behind her, and the rats were scrambling to share the corpses of their own kind.

While running, she even felt that she was stepping on several hard-shelled fifth species under her feet. She knew without hesitation that these should be black-shelled cockroaches. After all, the only creatures that can survive in the sewers are mutant rats and black-shelled cockroaches.

She ran for about two minutes. The light above her head was shaking up and down. She ran forward relying entirely on her memory.

However, I ran nearly two hundred meters back and forth. The sewer was very large, almost connecting several blocks. When I got to the front, it became a slightly more spacious place. There was a ventilation hole on both sides where sewage slowly drained out. It was about five or six meters wide. If I remember correctly, if I could run here, I could basically find the location of the kitchen.

I thought about it for a while, slowly recalling the post and hand-drawn map I had read.

"The third sewage outlet near the vent has been found!"

Gu Tongwan's eyes lit up, and he immediately ran to the third sewage outlet. He saw a circular sewage outlet about one meter wide with faint wind blowing down from it, which meant that it was connected from above!

Gu Tongwan gritted his teeth and used a lot of strength to move the net cover on the sewage outlet. After trying it, he found that he could crawl in on his knees.

There was a cold and damp wind blowing down from above, which meant that the entire sewage pipe should not be too long.

Fortunately, everything went very smoothly. I only had to climb about 20 to 30 meters to see the top cover. However, unlike the net cover below, the cover here was completely blocked, and it was estimated that some tools would be needed to open it.

But this was not a problem for Gu Tongwan. She was good at prying manhole covers, and the sewer covers were no exception. After all, she had already pried hundreds of manhole covers when she was still in Hai City. Who let Hai City be flooded at that time, and all the supplies were washed into the sewers? In addition, she also needed to kill more mutant creatures to gain points, so she could only get experience points from the small waterways.

After finding a crowbar and other handy tools in the space, he successfully pried open the manhole cover in less than ten minutes.

After carefully opening the lid, he moved the tiles on the top and then climbed out.

Looking at the various large pots and water tables in the room, she was absolutely sure that this was the kitchen of the Diamond Hotel.

I took off my raincoat, which I couldn't use anymore. Fortunately, the [corset] inside was not dirty.
