Chapter 3: Shadows
Next to the shelves against the wall, there is a lot of debris scattered on the ground.
Shen Mingyuan approached the shelf, and the floor tiles were mixed with some viscous liquid.
He scanned the shelves, hoping to pick up some survival materials such as emergency food, flashlights, medicine kits, lighters and the like, and if there were pistols or something like that in the store, then it would be even better.
Everywhere the eye could see, everything was swept away, and all that was on the ground was some discarded garbage.
Shen Mingyuan frowned helplessly, and stood on tiptoe, hoping to find something on top of the shelf.
Fortunately, the shelves were not high, and by the moonlight shining in from the window, he could easily see the items stored on the top.
A black metal can, resting in a corner.
[New compressed canned meat slices: 50 years shelf life, synthetic meat, containing a variety of minerals needed by the human body, protein content up to 80%. One box can hold the energy needed for a day. γ
Isn't that what I've always wanted? He swallowed his saliva, now he just wanted a good meal.
The stomach was already hungry and just gurgling. He reached out and removed the can from the shelf, the can was heavy, and a burst of barbecue smell slowly drilled out along the crack of the can.
He shook the can a few times, but no soup spilled. Maybe I was hungry and put a 250g can in my pants pocket.
As far as the eye can see, a sturdy wooden stick is leaning against the shelf.
He looked at the kitchen knife on his waist, the operational range of this weapon was too small, if he encountered a zombie attacking, with his current strength, it was not enough to kill the opponent.
Maybe it's safer to use this long stick?
The zombies in the game are the same as the classic American drama "Resident Evil", specifically, he has already watched all the zombies in this series.
Zombies have three main criteria:
1. Biting, loving to live in groups, the whole body is dominated only by the desire for infectious diseases.
Second, the only way to defeat them is to headshot and incinerate.
3. Follow in the footsteps of the survivors and wait for opportunities, which means that they are mobile.
There are not necessarily fewer zombies in remote towns, and there are not necessarily more zombies in big cities, whether it is supplies or finding survivors, it is much more convenient than staying in a small town.
Shen Mingyuan called out the menu bar and wanted to click directly on the map of this game.
A long bar icon appears in the lower right corner. Isn't it right here, he clicked on the icon with relief.
[Baiwei Life Game is in internal testing, and the global map opening function is not supported for the time being, and the next opening time: 48 hours later, the whole server will be open beta.] γ
He was silent, and if you didn't do a good job of the map, he went directly to the internal test, feeling depressed, and closed the menu.
This meant that it wasn't long before there would be other players joining him in this brutal competition, and he didn't have time to think about it if their skills were the same as his own.
The virtual map cannot be opened, so you can only look for paper maps in the store.
He tightened his grip on the stick and took a few steps into the deeper part of the shopβthe warehouse.
The wooden door was pushed open, and the musty smell of dust mixed with it made him cover his lips.
Just wanted to take a few steps, but kicked a hard object, due to the dark light, he instinctively crouched down, relying on his sense of touch, groping for the contents of the box.
Plastic, buttons, long objects, familiar feels. He pushed the button up, and a beam of white light flickered a few times before settling down.
The box also contained a medical kit, some batteries. A folding backpack with a machete about 40cm long. He quickly pulled open his pack. A survival kettle, a compass, a map, but no pistols.
"I'll use that for now." He grabbed his backpack and prepared to leave.
Boom! There was a loud bang outside the door. Shen Mingyuan clenched the machete in his hand.
There was silence all around, and his heart was racing. There was a loud noise mixed with ominousness, and the breathing gradually became heavy.
Smack.. The sound of dripping liquid began to be heard, and he glanced around again.
A small round broken window, with his thin body, was just able to drill out.
[Your life path has been predicted.] γ
[Day 1: You escaped the clutches of the giant eagle and arrived at the Bell convenience store, where you picked up an emergency survival kit specially prepared for the apocalypse. A zombie quietly revives, because you are too scared, you want to escape, you misjudge the size of the window, causing you to get stuck in the window, and the zombie bites you a few times. γ
[Day 2: You're stuck in the window.] γ
[Day 3: You get stuck in the window, die, and become a zombie.] γ
Forget it, he dismissed the idea. I've already wasted one chance to save and resurrect, and I still have four save chances left. It's a waste of money.
Besides, I still have a weapon, isn't it just to cut off the head of a zombie? How difficult it can be.
There are matches, grease and grease items in the bag. Cremation in place is not impossible. But grease is too precious in this post-apocalyptic era, and it is too wasteful to burn zombies.
He quickly pushed the door open, and the zombie that had just completed the mutation was standing in the doorway, half of its neck cut off, and part of its skin was sticking to it.
The blood vessels on the face, which appear purple-black. The whites of its eyes were also bloodshot, and it was wearing a staff uniform at a "Bell convenience store" and standing on the ground barefoot.
His whole body was constantly shaking, and he let out a piercing whimper due to the leakage of air in his throat.
Even if you dissect many creatures yourself, you still feel sick when you see its hideous appearance.
[Low-level zombies: Zombies that have just completed their transformation generally do not have strong aggressiveness, and due to the great resentment before death, the aggression is further enhanced, so players are requested to deal with it carefully. γ
It snapped its own head and roared at him.
It has a great grudge, and its only long-cherished wish is to tear apart all the living things that have looted its storefront.
Because you don't take a good look at the store, your boss will deduct your salary.
Shen Mingyuan retreated with his right foot, clenched his machete, and stared at the zombies that were swooping towards him.
It jumped up, pale green saliva, and kept pouring out.
He quickly turned around and retreated.
Boom! The floor tiles were smashed into a black pit, rubble and dust filled the air, and the zombies trembled and stepped out.
Glance around.
Shen Mingyuan half-squatted on the side of the shelf, observing the movement of the zombies through the lowest lattice.
Said good low-level zombies, strange zombies? Fortunately, I am interested in it, and I will definitely not be able to fight. And it's so fast that it can't outrun it on its own.
The zombie lifted his heels and walked slowly towards the front desk. It has no brains, it is not smart, and it temporarily loses its goal, which makes it a little helpless.
It smashes the cash register with a blank face.
He cowered in the corner, didn't the zombies protect the store, why did they smash the cash register again.
With a bang, the lamp on the ceiling fell to the ground, and it walked towards the lamp again, trampling the broken lamp to pieces.
The shards of glass were shattered even more by his stepping.
There was a squeak, and there was a sound in the wall beside Shen Mingyuan.
