Chapter 10 Free–For–All at the Mall
In about an hour, Theresa looted every luxury store on the floors.
She left nothing behind.

Women’s clothing, men’s clothing, children’s clothing, sportswear, shoes, socks, bags, watches, cosmetics… All the top brands were cleaned out.
She even emptied the jewelry and diamond stores on the lower level.
Thetest Pineapple phones andputers? Taken without a second thought! The Pineapple phones in Corynthea were as luxurious and amazing as the Apple phones.
Expensive skincare products from brands like SK–II, Miracle Light, and La Mer which she could never afford before? Taken.
Luxury purses she had only admired from afar and required pre–ordering to even own? Taken.
The dazzling disy cases with sparkling diamonds, gemstones, jade, and gold? Taken.
Her domain’s capacity grew to over 1,000,000 cubic feet in the blink of an eye.
Luxury goods were outrageously expensive. A single purse cost tens of thousands, but the inventory in these stores was limited.
Most luxury stores only filled oneyer of their shelves with goods to disy. Any additional purchases required special orders because the unit prices were so high that they rarely kept extra stock.
The most elite luxury items, priced in the millions, were not even avable in this mall.
If they had been, Theresa’s domain would have,dramatically expanded.
Luxury goods truly were worth their weight in gold.
Theresa made her way to the underground food court.
Yesterday, she had already cleared most of it out. Though she felt some regret for spending money then, it had saved her time, the most valuable resource now.
Time was crucial.
The zombie virus had just begun to spread, and most people were still too shocked to react.
She needed to finish her looting within two hours, then escape before the transportationworks copsed.
If she had not spent money yesterday, she would have had to skip the food court. The scattered, low–cost items in each store would not have been worth her time now.
Still, as she passed through the food court again, she grabbed an oven, an ice cream maker, and a coffee machine.

These were appliances she could use to prepare meals at hometer.
She hurriedly left the food court and headed to the supermarket she had visited the day before.

Yesterday, she spent over a million there and only managed to buy a fraction of what the store had to offer.
The supplies in the supermarket were overwhelmingly abundant.
Theresa vaulted over the barriers and into the massive supermarket. Her pace quickened as she looted.
She swept through the shelves, grabbing everything she could find.
One shelf full of chocte.
One shelf full of biscuits.
One shelf full of chips.
One shelf full of cooked sausages.
In both the fresh and prepared food sections, Theresa stormed into the back kitchens.
One freezer full of frozen ham.
One freezer full of ready–to–heat roast chicken.
Everything she had skipped buying yesterday, she now took without hesitation.
In less than thirty minutes, the enormous warehouse–style supermarket was emptied.
By the end, Theresa was gliding through the aisles on rollerdes, sliding and looting as she went.
When she finally cleared the supermarket, there were still twenty minutes left on her timer.
Theresa’s focus shifted to the store’s internal elevator.
Supermarkets like this always had their own storage.
Theresa entered the staff elevator.
As the elevator doors slowly opened, the sight that greeted her was….
Rows upon rows of neatly stacked boxes of supplies.
Hundreds of boxes of premium rice. Hundreds of boxes of imported snacks. Hundreds of boxes of wine, condiments, hygiene products, and essentials like sanitary pads.
This was the supermarket’s warehouse.
Theresa finally realized that everything she had taken yesterday, worth over a million, had been from here.

There was still so much left.
Theresa skated through the rows of stacked supplies on her rollerdes.
Every ce she passed left an empty shelf behind her.
By the time the system’s two–hour countdown ended, Theresa, drenched in sweat, opened a bottle of ice- cold c and took a drink. The warehouse before her was now empty.
This time, she had umted over 1,480,000 cubic feet of domain space.
Thergest mall in the city had already been looted clean by her.
All the goods were now stored in her domain.
Theresa smiled with satisfaction.
She changed into running shoes, tossed the empty c bottle into the vacant warehouse, and took the internal elevator back to the supermarket. She then used the staff stairs to head back.
Work done! Time to go home.
She did not take the elevator. Instead, she sent it to her floor and pressed the button for the underground B2 parking garage.
She followed her pace as it descended.
As the elevator made noise while moving up and down, the zombies would be attracted to the sound if there were any in the parking lot.
This way was safer.
Theresa moved with swift and light feet, skipping down the staff stairs.
When she reached B2, the elevator she had sent earlier arrived just in time.
<i>Ding</i><i>! </i>
At the sound, Theresa saw a woman who had been rushing to enter the staff elevator turn and sprint toward it instead.
She ran, shouting.
“Help. Help!”
Two blood–soaked figures, also wearing staff uniforms, followed her.
“Do note closer! There is someone else in there! Eat her!”
The woman appeared to notice the elevator door opening and, desperate, rushed in to push the person inside out to face the monsters outside.
However, when the elevator door opened, it was empty.

Stunned, she was knocked down by the monsters chasing her.

“Do not bite me! Look at my face! I am Laura. Do not bite me!” Laura screamed. Just then, she noticed the open door to the staff stairs she had tried to leave through carlier.
A young girl dressed in in sportswear stepped out.
Laura froze when she saw her.
The girl looked familiar… Wasn’t she the one Laura had called poor just yesterday?
“Help! Help me!” The woman eagerly waved at Theresa. “Help me! I will give you a gold membership card from our store… No! I will give you one piece of clothing. Ten pieces! A hundred pieces… Help me!”
Theresa, holding a baseball bat in one hand, turned to look at Laura. She knew only one thing to do in
response.
That was to walk away. The louder the woman screamed, the faster Theresa moved. <i>Thank </i><i>you </i><i>for </i><i>being </i>somewhat <i>useful </i><i>before </i><i>you </i><i>die</i><i>. </i>
<i>Vroom</i>.
With one press of the gas pedal, Theresa sped out of the garage.
It was just past 8 a.m.
The city was slowly starting to wake up.
As the zombie virus had erupted in the early morning, the past two hours had left everyone confused and terrified.
The first to be affected were the breakfast shops, sanitation workers, bus systems, and 24–hour ces.
These open, densely popted areas became chaotic as soon as the mutation urred.
This morning, the emergency hotlines were overwhelmed.
Those trying to call for help could no longer get through.
The city’s administrative departments had copsed.
Next were the office workers, like the ones in the mall where Theresa worked, which was during working hours.
The lucky ones were those who needed public transportation, as most of them were stuck on the roads with no vehicles avable.
Unfortunately, those who had already boarded the buses were the unlucky ones.
