Chapter 168
As the door of the supermarket closed.
The fog successfully enveloped the supermarket.
Xu Mo had time to look at the faces around him.
Soon after seeing an old man in the crowd, his eyes lit up.
This old man was the Professor Hermann he was looking for.
However, he did not rush over, but turned to look at the cashier who pulled him into the supermarket.
The female cashier looked about 20 years old, with fair skin and long curly hair combed into a neat ponytail behind her head. Her fair skin matched her delicate facial features, especially her big eyes. All of them attracted the attention of people around.
Her figure was even more slender, and against the light blue POLO shirt, she looked full of youthful vitality.
"Thank you!"
Xu Mo thanked the other party.
Although he did not need the other party's rescue, he should always thank the other party for his kindness.
"You're welcome!"
The girl smiled sweetly, and then looked out of the glass again.
"What happened?"
At this time.
The old man with blood on his body spoke.
"There is something in the fog. I saw John being rolled into it by a huge tentacle with my own eyes!"
Hearing the old man's words, Xu Mo's eyes moved.
Looking at the scene in the supermarket.
A sense of familiarity came.
"Is this, the fog?"
The fog was a movie he had seen in his previous life. He vaguely remembered that it seemed that for some unknown reason, the town was shrouded in a sudden fog. Along with it, there were many huge monsters.
The movie mainly tells the story of the male protagonist's family being trapped in a supermarket.
After some entanglement, some people advocated going out to find a way to escape, while others advocated staying and waiting for rescue.
The final ending seems to be that the male protagonist who went out to try to find a way to survive still failed to escape the fog after running out of gas in the car. Facing the monster that followed, he chose to kill his family and then commit suicide.
Unexpectedly, when he killed all his family members and was about to commit suicide, the rescue army had already arrived.
Compared to how desperate the male protagonist was in the end.
Xu Mo was more concerned about the source of the fog and how many points the monsters in it could bring him.
As the old man's voice fell.
Several screams came from the depths of the fog.
Hearing this miserable cry, a look of fear appeared on the faces of the people in the supermarket at the same time.
Xu Mo ignored them, but quietly came to the back of a row of shelves. After a flash of light from a space door, his figure had disappeared in the supermarket.
Above the island, Xu Mo kept using the space door.
A moment later, in the sky more than ten kilometers away from the island, Xu Mo looked at the fog that had faded and almost disappeared.
The range of this fog was so large that it covered an area of hundreds of kilometers.
The entire island was shrouded in it.
Xu Mo took out a map and drew a circle on the location of the island above. This circle was exactly the range of the fog.
He pointed at the center of this range.
"This should be the source of the fog!"
Thinking of this, Xu Mo moved and entered an open space door.
...
The location near the southern coast of the island.
Xu Mo flashed out of the space door.
The surroundings were white, and the visible range was less than three meters.
In addition, the telekinesis seemed unable to penetrate the fog, and Xu Mo had no way to perceive the surrounding scene.
If he explored by himself, he might not be able to determine the source of the fog in a day.
After all, he only circled an approximate range.
This area alone is no less than dozens of square kilometers.
However, he never lacks manpower, even though those under his command are not considered human beings.
But in many cases, they are much more useful than humans.
Thinking of this, the Dark Book on his forehead emitted a dazzling light. A moment later, a series of black shadows flashed in the mist under him. In less than half a minute, a full million undead troops descended.
These troops occupied the ground below for a full three or four kilometers in radius.
As Xu Mo's mind moved, these undead troops began to spread in all directions.
According to the search speed of these troops, it would take at least one or two hours to search this area. Taking advantage of this time, Xu Mo returned to the previous supermarket.
Walked out of a room at the back of the supermarket.
Came to the entrance of the supermarket.
Because there is only this one on the islandThe supermarket needs to supply the daily necessities of nearly 20,000 residents on the island, so the supermarket is very large, and the purchasing area alone is thousands of square meters.
There is a warehouse for storing various supplies in the back.
No one noticed Xu Mo's departure and return.
Relying on the speed of the space door, he did everything in less than ten minutes.
At this time, the people in the supermarket were still immersed in worry.
Who would notice such an insignificant person like him.
When he came to the back of the crowd, a short-haired woman happened to be roaring angrily.
"My son needs my care at home!"
"Why, none of you men can take a lady home?"
At this time, there were less than 40 people in the supermarket, and men accounted for about half of them.
After hearing her words, these people turned their heads away.
"I curse you all to go to the eighteen levels of hell!"
The short-haired woman swept her resentful eyes across the faces of the people in the supermarket, and then turned and walked into the depths of the supermarket, as if she was going to find a handy weapon.
Xu Mo ignored the other party and came to Professor Herman who was standing aside.
"Professor Herman?"
Hearing Xu Mo's call, the professor turned his head.
He looked at him with a puzzled look.
"Who are you?"
"My name is Xu Mo, and my assistant Ms. Grace should have talked to you on the phone before!"
Hearing this, Herman reacted.
"Oh, you are the one who led the research on physical enhancement potions?"
"That's right!"
Xu Mo nodded.
Since these people did not agree to join, he naturally had no need to leak out the things he was going to study in the experiment.
"Well, you guys think highly of an old man like me, and you actually came here to find me!"
Professor Herman sighed.
He had learned from Grace that the laboratory was located in New York, at least thousands of kilometers away from here.
"Of course, we sincerely invite you to join the experiment!"
Hearing that Xu Mo still insisted on inviting him in this situation, the old professor also felt a sense of being valued. He hesitated for a moment and spoke.
"I think you shouldn't care about this now, but think about how to get out of the predicament in front of you!"
"Then if I can guarantee your survival, can you agree to join?"
Xu Mo asked confidently.
Hearing this, Herman's expression moved.
He was really moved by Xu Mo's sincerity. In this case, the other party did not consider his own safety first, but was still thinking about the laboratory. He nodded without hesitation.
"Okay, as long as I can survive this disaster, I will join your laboratory!"
Xu Mo smiled when he heard this.
At this time, a short-haired woman holding a baseball bat walked past the two of them. Seeing the smile on Xu Mo's face, the anger in her heart instantly broke out.
"What are you laughing at, you worthless coward!"
