Da Da...

The sound of footsteps echoed in my ears.

The mood and the flickering yellow light on the wall gradually merged.

According to the memory of his predecessor, Chen Xi left the public area of the east wing and came to the residential area of the west wing.

Soon, he found his room.

It was said to be a room, but it was no different from the prison cell in his impression.

Even, the conditions in the cell are better than here.

At least the prison cell has a small iron window that allows sunlight to let in.

And in underground shelters, sunlight is the most extravagant thing ...

A separate room separated by wooden and iron plates, about five square meters, with little space.

Through the dim light in the hallway, Chen Xi saw that there was only a folding bed and a small homemade wooden table in the dim room, not even a chair.

There are a few items on the table.

A kerosene lamp, a dilapidated radio, and an iron bowl and spoon for food.

The Tomorrow subway station does not have electricity like other large shelters.

It is the ancient means of providing light and heat to people, such as torches, bonfires, kerosene lamps...

Chen Xi, who walked into the room, lit a kerosene lamp on the wooden table with a lighter, and looked around, and was immediately attracted by a few yellowed postcards pasted on the wooden wall.

On the postcard, there are palm trees and beaches under the blue sea and blue sky, there are also golden fields and wheat waves, and there are even modern cities with high-rise buildings.

Chen Xi knew that these postcards were the treasures of the predecessor.

At the same time, it is also the remembrance of the old world by the people of the new world...

Looking at everything familiar and unfamiliar in front of him, Chen Xi just shrugged his shoulders, put down his backpack casually, sat on the folding bed, and breathed a long sigh of relief:

"Finally home..."

Chen Xi is not the kind of character who likes to complain about the sky and others, and complain about life.

If it comes, it will be safe.

Anyway, I can't go back now, so let's live in this world...

Just as he was relaxing his mind, a low sound of "cooing" suddenly sounded in the room.

Looking down at his stomach, Chen Xi couldn't help but show a wry smile.

Looking at the mechanical watch on his wrist, he realized that four hours had passed since he had crossed over.

During this period, in order to reach the subway station safely from the surface, he did not dare to relax for a moment, but he did not have time to stop and rest, and not even a drop of water entered his stomach.

And he just received the food quota, but he was very generous to the mother of a sick child.

Of course, Chen Xi is not the kind of mother with a bad brain.

As he told the woman, he did "hide" some food, enough to fill his stomach.

Holding his own kettle, he went out to the water storage room in the living area to get a pot of hot water and came back, and Chen Xi closed the door with his hand.

With a "click", the rusty door bolt was also blocked, and he sat back on the folding bed, and with a flip of his wrist, there was a beautifully packaged can in his hand!

The cans are cylindrical, with the expiration date and brand name printed on the can, as well as a scornful advertising slogan - "Beef in sauce, choose beef to eat!" ”

This can with a very strong modern industrial atmosphere is extremely out of place with everything in the room.

It is worth mentioning that there is no production date on the can, so I don't know if this is intentional by the system, or if it is just that.

However, this point allows Chen Xi to explain the origin of these system items with less words in the future...

Directly grasp the pull ring of the can, click, and open the can directly, and inside is a piece of beef with distinct tendons and meat, which looks very tempting.

Pour all the beef in the sauce into your own bowl, pour in hot water, stir with a spoon, and a bowl of steaming beef soup is complete!

In this apocalypse, there are only a handful of large underground vaults capable of keeping cows in captivity.

Even if it is bred in captivity, it will not easily kill a cow, but will use it to continuously produce milk, a highly nutritious drink.

As a result, whether it is fresh beef, cured beef, or milk, it is simply not available in the market, and it is basically digested by the high-level personnel of the shelter.

Even the executive officer of the Tomorrow subway station, Li Jingui, who has lived for more than 40 years, has only tasted the taste of beef once.

Not to mention the rest of the residents of the subway station tomorrow.

They don't even eat much meat, and they haven't even seen what a cow looks like!

Therefore, if other residents of the subway station knew that Chen Xi was eating a big bowl full of soy sauce beef soup, they would definitely be eager to kick him open, snatch the bowl over, and then divide each piece of soy sauce beef into strips of shredded meat, eat a little bit every day, and carefully enjoy this hard-won delicacy.

But Chen Xi regarded it as an ordinary meal, just chewing pieces of beef in sauce slowly, slowly swallowing them into his stomach, and replenishing himself with enough nutrients and energy.

Because, in his opinion, only by maintaining a healthy physical and mental state can he better persevere in this harsh living environment.

In the last days, it is not only the strong who can survive, but those who survive are the strong!

。。。

Holding the spoon and eating his first meal in the apocalyptic world, Chen Xi called out a translucent blue light curtain and began to study the system of unknown origin in his body.

[Role: Chen Xi]

[Age: 22]

[Force: Tomorrow Subway Station]

【Occupation: Explorer】

[Level: 3]

[EXP: 0/30]

[Power: 4]

[Dexterity: 8]

[Constitution: 5]

[Spirit: 12]

[Explosion rate: 999%]

[Talent: Otherworldly Soul (more powerful mental power, you are not easily affected by negative emotions and any spiritual power)]

【Skill: None】

[Assignable Attribute Points: 2]

Looking at the changed system panel, Chen Xi couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

First of all, there are several points of known intelligence.

The [greedy game system] he loaded allows him to explode random items while gaining experience after killing mutants.

Killing mutants of different levels will also give you different experiences.

The items that burst out are completely random and have no regularity.

Secondly, he has a three-block [inventory] that allows him to access exploding items instantly.

Finally, after accumulating enough experience to level up, he can gain free attribute points, which can be added to the four attributes (strength, agility, spirit, and constitution).

The setting of this upgrade plus points is basically no different from the setting of the game he has played.

In other words, he is now a game character who can become more powerful by fighting monsters and leveling up and exploding items!

More able to survive in this dangerous apocalypse!!

However, unlike the game character who is able to constantly resurrect, he only has one life...

Chewing on the strong sauced beef, Chen Xi suddenly thought of a very important question.

"In addition to mutants, is it possible to kill other creatures to gain experience and explode items?"

Like cockroaches, rats, pigs, chickens, etc., and even living humans?!

Thinking of this, Chen Xi raised his eyebrows, and then silently crossed out the option of "human" from his "monster killing list".

He's not a murderer, and he won't kill innocents for upgrades and explosives.

Of course, if there is a human threatening his life, he will not hesitate to kill the other party.

"Well, I've got to find a test subject to test it..."

However, just as he finished the beef soup in the bowl without a drop left, the "test subject" took the initiative to come to the door...

It was a Xiaoqiang who smelled the aroma of beef and came to forage.

Unlike some variants Xiaoqiang, who have undergone radiation mutation and are much larger, this Xiaoqiang, who lives in human settlements, is still relatively normal.

Seizing the opportunity, Chen Xi stepped on it!

I only heard a "pop", the moment the cockroach's entire insect body was stepped on, the pleasant system prompt sound did not sound in my mind.

Thinking that the system's judgment had not yet been completed, Chen Xi even ran over Xiaoqiang, who had been trampled on twice, with his boots, but still did not get a prompt from the system.

Raising his feet and looking at the shriveled corpse of Xiaoqiang on the ground, Chen Xi's face showed an extremely regretful expression.

Experiments have shown that he can't gain experience by killing other ordinary creatures other than mutants, and he can't explode any items.

You know, at a certain moment, he already thought of at least a dozen ways to quickly upgrade monsters in his mind.

It's a pity that these methods are useless...
