Chapter 480: Chapter 480: Zoo Tour
Su Xiangzhe drove the minibus along the route marked on the map; the effects of the Face-changing pill had worn off, and the family had reverted to their appearances from the S city base.
“Phew, finally no need to wear that mask anymore,”
Lin Xiuyuan stretched comfortably, feeling relieved. Indeed, one’s own face was the most comfortable to wear.
“I remember, D city’s zoo was quite famous even before the Apocalypse, it was called something like the Wild Animal Sanctuary,”
Lin Cheng recalled, having once wished to take Xiuyuan, who was then in elementary school, on a trip there. But because he later became too busy, they never went, although he had looked through the information.
Unlike other city zoos, the large animals in D city’s zoo were not kept in cages but had an open grassland and hills where they could roam free.
“Right, so we need to be extra cautious on this trip,”
Lu Hao was also aware of the famed D city zoo. The man they met the day before had scoured just the perimeter of the zoo and made such a significant haul that’s why he suggested they take a look.
After all, the beast cores from giant mutant animals were still quite large.
“If anyone encounters danger, immediately retreat into the Space, and grandma and grandpa can stay in the car,”
Su Jin also reminded everyone in advance.
“OK, don’t worry, we’ve even fought off huge lions and bears, what’s there to fear?”
Lin Xiuyuan said confidently.
Zombies constantly swarming the vehicle from outside were repelled by Su Xiangzhe’s Thunder and Lightning Ability, saving the family the time it took to get out and clear the way, which meant that Lu Guanhai and Lin Cheng quickly spotted the zoo’s signage up ahead.

On the way to the zoo, the sides of the road were littered with the remains and bones of animals and humans, suggesting that indeed many animals were still inside.
Not long after the family drove into the zoo, they encountered a not-so-small zombie camel.
Its skin was completely hairless, with whitened eyeballs and a dislocated upper and lower lip, making it hard to identify what it looked like before. They only knew it was a camel from the hump on its back.
Roar!
Hearing the sound of the minibus, the zombie camel charged towards the vehicle without hesitation!
“Hold on tight!”
Su Xiangzhe yelled.
Su Jin quickly used wooden vines to create a protective shield around the grandparents to prevent them from being accidentally thrown out of the car.
Meanwhile, Lu Hao opened a window, ready to throw a Fireball at the charging zombie camel.
Just when the zombie camel was about to hit the minibus, Su Xiangzhe quickly turned the steering wheel to dodge its impact.
The camel quickly responded, turning its body and charging at the minibus again, but it was met with a Fireball that blasted it several meters away onto the dry grassland.
The Special Ability Fire that spread over its body quickly burned it clean, and a colorless beast core fell from its head.
Su Jin used the wooden vines to pull the beast core over and stored it in the Space.
“Look over there,”
Huang Yunxiang pointed to a sign that read “Flying Bird Paradise,” Indeed, many white skeletal remains lay haphazardly around. It seemed the mutated birds had been eaten by something, and their beast cores had likely been picked up by the group from the day before.
The minibus navigated past the Flying Bird Paradise, Dinosaur Paradise, and Golden Python Jungle, finally stopping in an open space.
Next to the Golden Python Jungle was the most famous attraction of D city’s zoo: the Self-drive Safari.
Hearing that there were various large herbivores and carnivores inside, Su Jin was already hesitating whether or not to switch the minibus for an armored vehicle, after all, a minibus isn’t crash-resistant!
“Change it, let’s all squeeze in, and get into an armored vehicle first,”
Lu Hao decided without hesitation.
Having embarked on missions before the Apocalypse, he knew how crucial a high-performance vehicle could be at a critical moment.
Su Jin nodded, then she and her family got off the minibus, and she took out an armored vehicle.
Just as everyone was about to board, Nie Qing heard a rustling sound, a sound he was all too familiar with.
“Be careful, there’s a python,”
Nie Qing quickly took off and looked in one direction as he spoke.
Su Jin nodded, let her grandparents get into the vehicle first, and then closed the vehicle door, while the rest of the family vigilantly watched the direction where the noise was coming from.
Several zombies snakes, coiled together, appeared in everyone’s line of sight, their scales had fallen off, exposing grey-white flesh, and two of them even had their intestines dragging outside, emitting bursts of foul odor.
“You guys go for it,”
Huang Yunxiang, sensitive to the smell, felt like she was about to roll her eyes back, and without any courtesy, she opened the door and got in.
Put!
An ice spike shot out from the mouth of a zombie python in front, catching Lin Xiuyuan off guard, and although an ice element beast core was of no use to him, Lin Xiuyuan still managed to block the ice spike, and with a backhand, a blade of ice cut the snake’s body into two halves.
But that zombie snake still dragged its head and swiftly crawled over.
A ball of special ability fire disposed of it, and Lu Guanhai chuckled twice, these zombie snakes were not mutant animals, so they were not very big, and his fireball was also sufficient.
“Lin Xiuyuan, don’t forget, this is a zombie animal, you need to attack the head,”
Su Jin said, it had been a long time since they had killed zombie animals, Lin Xiuyuan hadn’t forgotten, had he?
Nie Qing also used wind blades to mince the remaining zombie snakes into mush in mid-air, while Huang Yunxiang in the car felt she couldn’t bear to watch. Couldn’t they just burn them all clean with fire?
Lu Hao, however, wasn’t stingy with his special ability fire, burning those corpses clean, which finally revealed several beast cores.
Su Jin approached, waved her hand, and directly collected the beast cores into space, beast cores and all, there weren’t many of them, and it was more convenient to directly absorb them into space.
At that moment, a deep roar came from the direction of the grasslands, even the three people in the vehicle heard it.
“Monsters, huh,”
Lin Yunguo said curiously, wondering what they would see next.
The vehicle, after passing a dried-up pit, gradually drove into the self-driving area, originally both sides of the vehicle were within the range for viewing animals, but the whole family was extremely tense.
They had to pay attention to both sides, and those huge mutated plants, the mutated trees, it always felt like they had driven into a primeval forest.
“Is that a rock on the road ahead?”
Su Xiangzhe frowned and said.
But soon he realized it was not a grayish big rock, that was actually a huge hippo!
“A mutant hippo… so big,”
Lin Xiuyuan said blankly, but he remembered hippos were herbivores, so maybe they wouldn’t attack them?
