Jin Shu was nothing more than a 'white moonlight' whose spiritual power was destroyed in a cultivation novel. The men who once loved and protected her became infatuated with a junior sister...
At this moment, the life or death of the Earth is none of her concern.
If things were out of control, she would rather die in such an environment.
The room was cool and shady. Jin Shu ate breakfast, noodles with leftover hot pot meatballs from yesterday.
Unfortunately, there were no eggs. These days, it's hard to find even a live chicken, let alone fresh eggs.
The thought of the female lead having eggs made Jin Shu feel that the noodles in her mouth were somehow lacking.
But then she thought about it again: living under the watchful eyes of so many people, even if the female protagonist had delicacies like lobster and abalone, she wouldn't dare to take them out.
She's afraid people will have designs on her.
She's afraid of even the male lead now.
So even if she had it, she could only see it but not have it now.
Jin Shu felt a little better and finished the rest of the noodles in one go. She had already made arrangements for the rest of the time.
It's only the third month of the apocalypse, but the country hasn't abandoned its people; aid is still being airdropped almost every month.
But as aid dwindled and riots increased, hunger and fear often spurred the growth of evil, and thousands of years of social civilization slowly regressed. Due to the scarcity of resources, people had no choice but to take up arms in order to survive.
You either protect yourself or you swing it at someone else.
Jin Shu didn't want to become a thief who steals other people's things, but she also didn't want to become a hoarder who only knew how to hoard supplies but had no ability to fight back.
If she wants to have the ability to protect herself, she must start training now.
The original owner's body wouldn't be considered healthy even in civilized society. Having stayed at home for many years, her limbs were completely weak. When Jin Shu first climbed up from the first floor, she was almost exhausted to death.
The original owner of this house was better off than the previous owner; at least there was some fitness equipment in the house.
No one should stay outdoors during the day. Since she was just idling around anyway, Jin Shu first used the glass cutter she had picked up the night before to cut the glass into suitable sizes. Then she tidied up all the clutter in the house, trying to make more space for useful supplies.
With the additional discovery of a hidden 20-square-meter warehouse, the usable area of this house is nearly 200 square meters, which can store a lot of things.
It was at this time that Jin Shu discovered she quite enjoyed organizing things, such as the food she ate each day, the water she used, and the clothes she would change into each morning and evening.
After finishing the tidying up, Jin Shu looked at her neat and orderly home with satisfaction, clapped her hands, and then began to exercise.
As a trained martial artist, Jin Shu doesn't need any tutorials to improve her physical fitness. In her original world, aside from cultivating immortality and meditating, she spent most of her time practicing martial arts.
She has developed her own set of boxing techniques. After performing the entire routine, her whole body aches and aches, but once she recovers, she feels much more relaxed and refreshed.
After finishing her punches, the floor was covered in beads of sweat dripping from Jin Shu's body, making her look as if she had just been pulled out of the water.
Fortunately, there was still plenty of ice in the room. Once the ice inside had melted, we just needed to replace it with fresh ice.
The melted ice water couldn't be wasted either; Jin Shu collected it all and put it on the balcony to freeze overnight, so that it would be brand new ice blocks the next day.
This is called water resource recycling.
After resting for a while after finishing her boxing practice, Jin Shu found a book in the study and quietly flipped through it.
As expected of a kindred spirit, their tastes are similar to the original owner's; they both like horror novels.
This was Jin Shu's first time reading this kind of novel. She wasn't afraid of any gods or ghosts, since she had seen so many real ghosts in the ghost world that they weren't mysterious to her, so how could she be afraid? But it was good for passing the time, better than being alone in a room staring at the ceiling.
The room was quiet, with the fan blowing gusts of cool air. After experiencing the benefits of electricity, Jin Shu planned to get a diesel generator. If she remembered correctly, the original owner's underground garage should have stored a lot of diesel fuel.
The plan was proceeding smoothly when suddenly screams came from downstairs.
Jin Shu stood by the window and looked down. A shirtless man was thrown out, much like her own experience, except he was in a worse state. It was the hottest time of the year, over 50 degrees Celsius outside, and possibly even over 60 today. The ground temperature was about 70 degrees Celsius. Being thrown out in such weather, the feeling of being roasted alive by the earth was unimaginable.
The male and female protagonists and their companions were standing in the apartment.
Jin Shu recognized him; wasn't this man one of the people who had stayed at the original owner's house before?
The man's body turned red as soon as it touched the ground, and he quickly stood up and shouted inside.
"Why are you kicking me out?! You stole my things, why are you kicking me out?!"
Jin Shu watched the spectacle with a smile.
Last night she looted all of the original owner's belongings. After the time freeze ends, those people will inevitably turn on each other like dogs.
Sure enough, they were kicked out by the male and female leads as soon as the commotion started. Faced with the protagonist's halo and strength, these cannon fodder characters basically only have one fate: death.
The man was still cursing and refusing to leave when, in the next second, a yellow beast suddenly darted out from the corner. It was so fast that no one could catch a glimpse of it. Before the man could even scream for help, his body was bitten in two, and blood sprayed onto the ground, quickly emitting smoke.
The beast stood at the apartment door, devouring its prey's body.
Jin Shu took out her binoculars and carefully observed the wild beast.
It looks like a wolf but is actually yellow with black spots on its body. It is huge and can swallow half of its body in one gulp when it opens its mouth.
His red eyes flashed with a fierce light as he ate while baring his teeth and threatening the people in the apartment.
Upon seeing this, the male and female protagonists immediately went back.
This thing is a monster that mutated in the extreme environment of the apocalypse.
It may have once been just a small weasel, or maybe a dog. Who knows? In the face of natural disasters, survival depends on mutation. It seems that apart from humans, other plants and animals are rapidly evolving.
The end times, it seems, only refer to the end times of humankind.
After the beast finished eating, it left behind a pool of bright red blood. The blood was quickly absorbed by the black moss in the corner, and the moss then spread wildly and rapidly, almost reaching the tenth floor.
Jin Shu withdrew her gaze, her face expressionless and her mind calm, and continued her exercise.
Having finally made it to the point where the temperature dropped, Jin Shu immediately changed into thick clothes, wrapping herself up from head to toe, because temperatures below minus fifty degrees Celsius were no joke.
The fire was lit, but it wasn't enough. Jin Shu could only huddle together and watch time slowly pass by.
Finally, it was six o'clock.
