“Did I get reborn?” David looked at the familiar but somewhat unfamiliar office, hardly believing his eyes. He clearly remembered being chased and trapped by a group of crazy zombies and being forced into a dead end. In the end, with no way out, he aimed the gun at his own head and pulled the trigger, firing the last remaining bullet. And now, everything seemed as if it had never happened. David looked at his clean and neat clothes and his intact body, his eyes filled with both shock and joy.
He glanced at the time in the lower right corner of the computer: March 2, 2040. Only then did he confirm that he had indeed been reborn, and that he had been reborn a month before the disaster occurred. He stood up and walked to the window of the office, overlooking the world below. Outside, everything was normal, with blue skies and white clouds, and no zombies or mutants in sight. The streets were busy with cars and pedestrians, and there was no sign of the impending apocalypse. But David knew that a terrible virus would spread throughout the world in a month’s time.
By then, at least 80% of the world’s population would be infected with the virus and become terrible zombies. These zombies had no rationality and were extremely aggressive, like wild beasts. This would be the biggest crisis in human history.
After the outbreak of the zombies, human civilization almost completely collapsed, with only a small number of survivors struggling to survive under the threat of mutants and zombies.
“Only one month left, time is still tight, it looks like I have to prepare as soon as possible…” David’s relaxed mood just now suddenly became tense again. Although he didn’t know if the zombie virus would break out again in this lifetime, and although he hoped the end wouldn’t come, he didn’t dare to bet, nor could he afford to.
As he was pondering, suddenly, a cold and emotionless electronic voice sounded in David’s mind:
[“Congratulations, host, the Super Fortress System has been bound!] .𝒐𝙧𝒈
[You have obtained a battle-ready storage space of 50 million cubic meters! ]
The doomsday countdown: 29 days, 15 hours, and 23 minutes. The novice mission has been released!”
A series of messages stunned David for a moment, but then he was filled with wild joy. 50 million cubic meters? How big would that space be?!
Is this the treatment of a reborn person? Starting with such a huge cheat! David was extremely excited in his heart.
If he uses this storage space to store food, then when the end of the world comes, he will no longer have to worry about food issues, right? In the end of the world, food is the most important resource, without a doubt.
After the collapse of human civilization, humans lost a lot of arable land and pasture, and productivity was never the same again. Food is the most precious thing in the end times.
Famine is a common occurrence for people in the end times, and countless people have died of hunger. A beautiful woman can sell her body for a piece of bread, and good friends can turn against each other for a bag of rice,This kind of thing is ubiquitous in the end times.
However, David soon encountered a problem. Although he had fifty million cubic meters of space, he didn’t have the ability to obtain so much food, and if he purchased a large amount of food, it would likely attract the attention of the authorities, Does he have to resort to stealing or robbery?
If the matter is exposed, not to mention whether he will go to jail, he won’t be able to explain the storage space either. Suddenly, David remembered that the system had issued a novice task. With a thought, he summoned the system panel, and sure enough, he saw an unfinished task in the task bar.
[Task: End Times Reserve!]
[The end times are coming, please collect as many available resources as possible into the combat readiness storage space!]
All resources stored by you during this task period will receive a critical hit of 100,000 times. Task remaining time: 29 days, 15 hours, and 1 minute.] David was shocked.
“So mean, if I store a ton of pork, it will become 100,000 tons of pork in the storage space?!” David was overjoyed.
“Haha, it’s true that when you lack something, you will get it.” Thinking that time is precious, David decided to leave here immediately and start preparing reserve supplies. He was too lazy to clean up his workstation and walk out the office door.
Suddenly, he heard the surprised voice of his colleague behind him: “David, where are you going? It’s working hours now.” However, David didn’t even turn his head.
Although he knew that the end of the world was coming, he had no intention of giving any hints to these colleagues he had been with day and night. After surviving for several years in the end times,
he had already seen through the wickedness of human nature. This time, he would not easily trust anyone again. The first thing David did after leaving the company was to go to the restaurant he used to go to before the end of the world, and order a large table of dishes.
Braised pork, sweet and sour pork, old duck soup, Dongpo pork knuckle… After living in the end times for many years, David had almost forgotten what meat tasted like.
In Eschatological, it often takes David several days to barely eat a meal, and it’s usually some expired food. As soon as the waiter brings the dishes, David eagerly devours them.
The moment the tender braised pork enters his mouth, David has an urge to cry. He hasn’t had such delicious food in years. Then David finds it a bit funny that after surviving for so many years in the end of the world, his heart has become cold and numb, yet he was moved by a dish of braised pork. However, David’s body is not really hungry now. He feels a bit full after only a few bites. But David didn’t come to this restaurant just to satisfy his appetite.
He wants to conduct an experiment. David looked around the private room and found no surveillance cameras. So he put a plate of Dongpo pork elbow that he hadn’t touched into his storage space.
[You obtained one portion of Dongpo pork elbow, and the critical hit effect is 100,000 times!]
[Congratulations on obtaining 100,000 portions of Dongpo pork elbow!]
David was delighted. This mission was really helpful! He connected his consciousness to the storage space and found that there were indeed 100,000 portions of Dongpo pork elbow inside. David took one out, and it looked exactly the same as the one he had just put in. Moreover, time was frozen inside the storage space. So no matter how long David waited before taking out the food, it would still be steaming hot and not spoiled.
“I wonder what will happen if I put this duplicated Dongpo pork elbow into the system space?” David wanted to see if the system would have any bugs. So he put the duplicated Dongpo pork elbow into the storage space again. But this time, nothing happened. It seems that the system also has its own judgment method. However, David was already satisfied with this result.
Next, his plan is to have a crazy loot and find a way to store a massive amount of food and resources in his storage space. David immediately made a long list of supplies in his mind. With a plan in mind, David settled the bill hastily and headed towards his home.
