April 23, 2023, deep in the desert in the northwest of Huaxia Kingdom.

"Wow" one foot on the sand, this is a desert, the scorching sun unscrupulously barbecues the earth, the endless desert is only endless yellow sand, the hot air rising from the ground makes people feel as if they are in a fantasy world and makes people dizzy. Every breath pulls the lobes of the lungs and carries the water out of the body, a sea of death in which no life can survive.

But at this time, there was a young man walking slowly in the desert. His name is Vincent, 20 years old, from Jiangnan Province, China, his father is an explorer, his mother is an English teacher, when the plague broke out 3 years ago, all the people around him were infected, only he survived, in order to escape the zombie attack, he began his wandering life.

"Phew" Vincent spat out the sand from his mouth, and then tightened the bandana that wrapped around his face, his whole body was wrapped in thick clothes, and only a pair of resolute eyes were exposed. He turned around and put his hand on the pergola to look at the desert behind him, a silent desert, not even a single weed, and he was a living creature within a hundred miles.

"It's finally safe." Vincent breathed a sigh of relief, he took out the water bag and carefully took a sip before muttering to himself: "Alas, there is not much water, I don't know when it will be big, why is this damn desert so big, I haven't walked out for more than a month, fortunately I threw off the pursuers, otherwise this time it would be a big loss." ”

After saying that, he put the hydration bag back, and then pulled out a pistol from behind his waist, this is an Israeli-made 0.50 caliber desert eagle, which can be said to be the most powerful existence of all pistols, as long as a man is estimated to be unable to resist its charm. This gun was found in a city outside the desert, on a scattered corpse eaten by zombies, it should be a rich man's private hideout, it is estimated that when the plague broke out, he took out the gun and put it on his body to defend himself, but it was unexpected, at that time, in addition to this gun, 36 bullets and a triangular army thorn were found on his body.

As we all know, Huaxia Guo's control of guns is unusually strict, Vincent wandered for 3 years, found many places and did not find a gun, but accidentally found on a corpse, his excitement at that time was indescribable, and it was because he was too excited at the time, so when he was in a hurry to play with the pistol, he who could not play with the gun accidentally went off, and the huge gunfire attracted almost the entire city of zombies to watch him, so frightened that he fled on the spot, and fled to the depths of this desert to get rid of the pursuit of zombies.

After more than a month of Vincent's play, he has now thoroughly touched the performance of this gun, only to see that he skillfully disassembled the gun into parts, and then carefully wiped it with a cloth, put on some engine oil, and then skillfully assembled the gun, and then he held the gun with both hands in the distance, "snapped" his mouth learned to make a gunshot, and after firing a shot, he was satisfied with the gun holster behind his waist.

"Alas...... It's been 3 years, and I haven't met a single living person, so I won't be the only one left in this world, right? I'm not married, God, why don't you keep a woman for me? Vincent said to himself as he walked, it wasn't that he wanted to talk to himself, but he had been alone for the past three years, surviving alone, fighting alone, and he was afraid that if he didn't talk to himself, his language system would be degraded because of this.

As the sun went down, Vincent stopped, laid down his backpack, which was almost a man's height, untied a small shovel from it, and dug a sand pit on the ground, where he was to camp for the night. When camping in the desert, you must find a sheltered place, because the weather in the desert is unpredictable, and if you camp at night without shelter from the wind, it will be a great fun in case of a sandstorm at night.

He picked up his backpack and jumped off the sand pit, then took out a tent from his backpack and set it up, and put a sleeping bag in the tent after finishing it, the temperature difference between the desert during the day and night is quite large, if you don't want to freeze at night and can't sleep, it is warmer to sleep in a sleeping bag. Then he took out a small kerosene stove from his treasure chest-like backpack once more, lit it, and took out a dead lizard and grilled it on it, which was Vincent's dinner tonight, and the lizard he had shot with a crossbow arrow when he met it in the afternoon.

The crossbow bolt was his hunting tool, and it was also the most powerful weapon he found before he picked up the pistol, and he was able to use the crossbow arrow skillfully to hunt thanks to his father, who was an adventurer, and since he was 11 years old, his father often took him on expeditions around the world, so he learned a lot of survival skills and hunting skills in the wild.

He carefully rolled the lizard while sprinkling the condiment evenly on the lizard, and he couldn't help but say to himself again: "It's still convenient now, there is no living person outside, go to the store to get what you want, don't give money, why haven't I encountered such a good thing before." After saying that, the lizard was also roasted, and he devoured it even with the bones, and a lizard naturally could not satisfy his appetite, but he was reluctant to eat the biscuits in his backpack, which was his last food. He had entered the city in search of food because he had nothing to eat, but now that he was in the desert, he needed to save as much as he could, otherwise he would not be able to guarantee that he would get out alive.

Holding back the feeling of hunger and thirst, he took out a mobile phone and played the game, which is the only electrical appliance he can use now, because this mobile phone is equipped with solar cells, but unfortunately no matter what game, you will get tired of playing it over and over again for 3 years, and he is facing this problem now. Sure enough, after less than ten minutes of playing, he threw his phone aside, then forced himself to get into his sleeping bag and count the sheep and fall asleep.

Vincent got up early the next morning and continued on his way, not eating breakfast or lunch in order to save food, and only drank a few sips of water until the afternoon. Severe dehydration and hunger made his head feel dizzy, he had no way to hurry, he had to find food as soon as possible, whether it was a lizard or a snake, even a bug he could accept. But he looked up at the desert around him, and the yellow sand spread all the way to the sky, and there was nothing, and just as he was struggling to eat the last bag of biscuits, a bright red suddenly came into his eyes.

He rubbed his eyes vigorously, and looked again, sure enough, it was red, not the color of yellow sand, his heart was excited, after more than a month of trekking, he finally saw a color other than yellow, he took out the water bag, and poured it very luxuriously, when he slowed down and felt that his head was no longer so dizzy, he lifted the backpack behind his back and walked quickly in the direction of red.
