Chapter 10: Journey to the United States

The next day, Yin Shan met with Wang Lu and Hou Ting at Runyuan as planned. Although they were somewhat convinced of Yin Shan's "apocalyptic theory," they still chose to rent the 21st floor. Yin Shan didn't say much, but did remind them: "Don't make a big fuss when stockpiling supplies. Buy things that are easy to store and get some drying boxes. If there's really a torrential downpour that lasts for several months, the food will get moldy."

The two looked at Yin Shan and said they understood. Since Hou Ting was in the grain business, the drying part would still be handled by her. Yin Shan didn't want to reveal that she had space, so she still asked for a drying box.

Yin Shan had been running back and forth between the warehouse and the delivery point for the past few days, collecting supplies until his hands were numb. Meanwhile, on the seventh day after the mission was issued, Yin Shan heard the system prompt:

"Ting, mission completed, checking mission completion data..."

"Ding, it's detected that the host has exceeded the task, the reward has been increased, and the reward is being issued..."

Yin Shan was shocked. Exceeded the mission? It seemed this dimension judged mission completion based on the types and quantities of goods one stockpiled. Yin Shan calculated his supplies. Besides the items on the list, Wang Lu had also prepared a large amount of blood pressure medication, hypoglycemic medication, tetanus medication, and other such items. As for other supplies, Yin Shan stocked up on several diesel generators, solar panels, and water tanks, as well as compressed biscuits and self-heating hot pot rice. Considering safety and travel in the post-apocalyptic world, Yin Shan also stocked up on three assault boats, charcoal, alcohol stoves, alcohol blocks, thermal clothing, down jackets, quick-drying clothing, and other items needed for extreme heat and cold.

It seems that these items are considered doomsday supplies in the space, so they are included in the mission data.

Yin Shan didn't think any more and looked at the task reward panel given by the space:

Mission Rewards:

The reward materials have been doubled and distributed to the static warehouse;

Rewards include animals that never get sick: a pair of meat rabbits, a hen, a dairy cow, and a pair of piglets.

The bonus static warehouse is doubled.

The bonus event farm has been doubled in size.

A refined fish pond has been added and crucian carp fry have been released.

The host has been detected to have a reliable teammate. Rewards: five sets of constant temperature clothing, five constant temperature water bottles, two marrow cleansing pills, five bottles of physical enhancement fluid, one silent assault boat, two smoke extractors, and three perpetual motion generators.

Yin Shan looked at the mission rewards. It seemed the space considered Wang Lu and Hou Ting reliable teammates, so the extra material rewards were going to Wang Lu and Hou Ting. However, Yin Shan decided to keep the unusual items and give them to them later. Especially the perpetual motion generator. According to the space description, this generator does not require diesel fuel to generate electricity and will not break down. How to give it and how to give it to them need to be carefully considered.

As for the marrow cleansing pills and physical fitness strengthening liquid, Yin Shan decided to find an excuse to invite Hou Ting and Wang Lu to dinner and give them the pills.

Yin Shan looked at the supplies in the still warehouse. The space had already been automatically sorted and arranged, no need for Yin Shan, a storage idiot, to sort them out. If her best friend was reliable, these supplies would be enough for the five of them to eat and drink until they died in the apocalypse.

Yin Shan came out with two bottles of physical enhancement liquid and gave them to Guan Yunhua and Yin Zhiwen. It was still a peaceful time, so Yin Shan didn't have to worry about the risk of being broken into. So the three of them drank the physical enhancement liquid respectively.

After drinking the physique-boosting liquid, Yin Shan and the other two passed out. When they woke up the next morning, they were all covered in a sticky, black liquid, apparently having expelled all the impurities from their bodies. Yin Shan tried to lift a barbell and found that the barbell, which he had previously been unable to lift, could now be lifted with ease. His five senses also became sharper. Yin Shan could even hear Qi Xi's breathing and footsteps. A cat's footsteps are very soft, and if you don't listen carefully, you rarely hear them.

Yin Shan was very happy. Seeing her parents' surprised expressions, Yin Shan gave a brief explanation, then took a shower, told her best friends to come to her house for dinner in the evening, and then booked a flight to the United States the next day.

Yin Shan took into consideration that people would faint after taking the physical enhancement liquid, so he only mixed the marrow cleansing pill into Wang Lu and Hou Ting's drinks. The three of them are all cola lovers, so now they don't have to worry about getting diabetes and can be happy every day!

At the dinner table, Yin Shan and the others discussed the stockpiling situation. Yin Zhiwen also suggested that Wang Lu and Hou Ting install new security doors at the elevator entrances and fire escapes. Because Yin Zhiwen had always had good relations with officials, Wang Lu and Hou Ting thought about it and decided to do the same.

The next day, Yin Shan set off for the United States and found the person his father had helped him contact.

Seeing Yin Shan's weak appearance, Bill felt that Yin Zhiwen was so generous that he sent his daughter to the United States to buy weapons. Thinking of Yin Zhiwen's care for his daughter in China, he decided to go with Yin Shan to avoid being unable to explain anything if something happened.

Bill took Yin Shan into a store, and after exchanging the secret code, he took Yin Shan inside with the store owner. Although the United States allows its citizens to own guns, foreigners are not allowed to buy them and can only buy them on the black market.

Yin Shan looked at the wall of weapons and eventually settled on five submachine guns and 3,000 rounds of ammunition, and bought five pistols and 2,000 rounds of ammunition. Later, when Yin Shan asked the shopkeeper if they had any cold weapons, the shopkeeper, seeing her frail appearance, scoffed, "You're so weak, you can just hide behind a man, why would you need a cold weapon? Hahaha." Yin Shan raised an eyebrow, feeling that he needed to intimidate the man, lest he end up spending money and not getting a good deal. So, Yin Shan smiled and said, "Can I try the gun?"

The shopkeeper raised an eyebrow and said, "Okay, but if you're not a good fighter, given my relationship with Bill, you can only buy these guns. Forget about cold weapons."

Yin Shan already knew that this black shop was most famous for its cold weapons, not firearms. They were said to be made of special materials, expensive, but worth the money.

Yin Shan followed the shop owner to the shooting range. If it were a few days ago, Yin Shan would not have had confidence, but after drinking the physical enhancement liquid, Yin Shan's reaction ability and strength were basically the same as after his superpowers awakened, so Yin Shan raised his hand and fired 10 shots directly.

The shopkeeper saw that Yin Shan didn't even take aim and was about to laugh at him, but then he saw that Yin Shan had hit the bull's eye with all 10 shots. Knowing that he was a tough guy, the shopkeeper immediately put away his contempt and took Yin Shan to the armory.

Bill watched Yin Shan shooting, and finally understood why Yin Zhiwen dared to let Yin Shan come alone. His daughter was really amazing.

Yin Shan walked into the cold weapons warehouse and selected a recurve bow, two daggers, and two long swords.
