Ruan Jiyan turned on the TV and took advantage of the free time to run to the second bedroom to take out the thirty power banks she bought, and called Fang Ming to help charge them.

Fang Ming didn't hear what the two people just said. He watched Ruan Jiyan drag out a large box from the second bedroom. He was wondering what she was going to do in the last second, and the next second he saw her open the box to reveal a box of power banks and data cables. His jaw dropped in shock.

"Sister, why did you buy so many power banks? Did the salesperson trick you, or did you say you were going into the mountains to practice Buddhism?" Fang Ming couldn't help but complain as he helped her carry them out.

Ruan Jiyan didn't have time to chat with him now. She arranged the new power strip she bought and plugged it in. Then she took out the data cable and power bank and started charging one by one.

When natural disasters or man-made disasters occur, there will definitely be water and power outages, at least that's what happens in novels. Even if there are differences, there will probably be water and power outages on a small scale, because inevitably some water and power facilities will be damaged.

If this is the first day of the zombie outbreak, then there should be some time before the water and electricity are cut off. She hurried to charge these power banks as well as her mobile phone, tablet and laptop, which will last for a while.

It would be even simpler if this wasn't the time of a zombie outbreak, but just the time when zombies appeared.

Although it takes a very short time for individual zombies to evolve into a group of zombies, there are still gaps. If she seizes the gaps, she may be able to observe the situation again.

Fang Ming and Ruan Jiyan were busy in the living room, while Chen Xi was preparing hot pot dishes in the kitchen.

Perhaps the kitten smelled the fragrance, and staggered into the kitchen. Chen Xi saw the kitten walking towards her feet in small steps, and her heart melted. She picked it up and looked at it carefully.

"Sister Ruan, when did you buy a kitten?" She held the kitten and looked at it again and again, and asked Ruan Jiyan in the living room.

"I picked it up." Ruan Jiyan carried the solar panel to the balcony and looked up at the sky.

The sky was covered with dark clouds and it was grey. But occasionally, a few rays of sunlight would shine through the dark clouds and onto the ground. Ruan Jiyan moved all the solar panels to the balcony only after he was sure it would not rain. Anything was good.

After they were busy charging their power banks, mobile phones and tablets, they walked into the kitchen.

Fang Ming followed behind Ruan Jiyan. Although he didn't understand why she did this, he still followed her silently.

Ruan Jiyan was not in a hurry to explain to them because they would believe whatever she said, which might be the reason why she became friends with them.

However, Ruan Jiyan was not sure whether this was a game or the real world. She believed that this was just a game copy, so she did not consider bringing these two people at the beginning, because they could only be regarded as passers-by in the game at best, and the ending could not be changed no matter what.

But no matter what, she is a game player now, and it may not be easy for them to get out of it smoothly after getting them involved.

I hope they have a good ending and I hope I can keep them.

"Sister Ruan, this little kitten can actually eat lettuce!" Chen Xi said in surprise, pointing at the little kitten chewing lettuce in its mouth.

Ruan Jiyan walked into the kitchen and heard Chen Xi's voice. He lowered his head to glance at the kitten who was eating happily. His tense face softened a little, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and the look in his eyes when he looked at the kitten became much gentler.

She picked up the kitten and touched it. The kitten was chewing lettuce in its mouth, making some slurping sounds.

Although this little cat was a stray cat before, it looks to be only about two months old. It was not full even when it was on the rooftop. Maybe it was too hungry before, so it is not picky about anything.

Chen Xi reached out and touched the kitten in Ruan Jiyan's arms, then asked curiously, "Sister Ruan, does the kitten have a name?"

"no."

"Look, it eats lettuce, it tastes better than cat fries." Fang Ming looked at the cat and wanted to laugh.

"Then let's call it Cai Cai!" Chen Xi was very happy. She was quite satisfied with the name.

"Meow!" The kitten raised its head and responded to her.

“It seems to like it too!”

Ruan Jiyan watched the man and the cat having fun, but he didn't feel relaxed at all. Instead, his tension grew stronger.

Although she is now in the real world, the changes in her body are still very obvious. She can still use her full-time water ability, and her ears are very sensitive. She can vaguely hear the noise at the intersection outside the apartment building.

The sound of cars honking, the sound of pedestrians talking...

Beep—beep—the sound of the game system rang in my mind.

[Game copy: Zombie siege]

[Difficulty level: unknown (new dungeon development, difficulty unknown during internal testing)]

[Player/NPC name: Ruan Jiyan]

[Level: Hidden (the level of the new instance will not be displayed, and the reward will be issued after the task is completed)]

[Mission: Survive (You will face many difficulties, please do your best to survive)]

[Mission Reward: Life Points x 500, various items to be explored]

[Player's initial health points: ###]

[Players please find a way to survive!]

Ruan Jiyan looked at the information and frowned slightly.

A new dungeon of unknown difficulty? The planning team leader is here, who is developing the new dungeon?

No wonder Ruan Jiyan didn't remember the existence of this copy, and she went directly into this copy without returning to the game lobby after the end of the previous copy. No wonder some data were not counted.

Very strange.

Ruan Jiyan felt a little complicated. Only at this moment did she begin to feel that she had really entered the game and was being controlled by someone.

[Host, due to the development of a new instance, the difficulty is unknown. The system has prepared two mission rewards for the host. The host can check the system mailbox. ]

This time it was the mechanical sound of her system. Ruan Jiyan felt a little relieved when she heard the sound. At least she was sure that the system was still there. In this way, she could ask it for help if she had any difficulties.

When Ruan Jiyan heard the system say there was a reward, he opened the system mailbox without hesitation and took a look.

There are two sets of reward data in it. The system has prepared a space for her and... a safe house!

Ruan Jiyan was delighted. Although her system was usually cold and searching, it was very generous when it came into play.

With the space, she can put the food she has stockpiled in it, so it doesn’t take up much space and she can even put in a lot more.

A safe house is even better, as they can then wait for the copy to end in the safe house without putting their lives in too much danger.

After Ruan Jiyan collected both rewards, he opened the safe house's instructions and found a map showing the safe house's location, but it could not be opened yet.

So now that the zombies have appeared, but the safe house cannot be opened directly, it means that their danger has not been eliminated.

It's still very tricky. Even if the safe house is opened, they still can't avoid encountering zombies on the way there.

Ruan Jiyan shook his head and said, forget it, something is better than nothing.

After Ruan Jiyan received the system reward, Chen Xi and Fang Ming had already prepared the hot pot ingredients. While Fang Ming was arranging the vegetables, he said to Chen Xi: "It's still broad daylight, there's no atmosphere for eating hot pot."

Chen Xi curled her lips and said, "There are only three of us. What kind of atmosphere do you want? Do you want me to find two beauties for you?"

Chen Xi was somewhat glad that she had decided to go to Ruan Jiyan's house to eat hotpot on impulse. If what Sister Ruan had just said to her was true, then she would have been very panicked being alone at home and would not be able to deal with the zombies.

Even before she faced life and death, she already felt like she had survived a catastrophe.

Fang Ming tapped Chen Xi's head. This little girl was so disrespectful. He and Ruan Jiyan were at the same grade, but Chen Xi obediently called Ruan Jiyan "sister" but was reluctant to call him so, and she would say something to him from time to time.

"Now I have to interrupt with an urgent news... A new type of unknown virus has appeared in the Nanwu City Third People's Hospital. The symptoms are: mania, numbness, biting people, and the body is twisted. Please stay at home as much as possible and do not go out."

The beautiful anchor on TV was reporting the news in a clear and melodious voice. Fang Ming walked out and stood beside the stunned Ruan Jiyan, muttering, "New virus?"

"Zombie virus." Ruan Jiyan's voice was cold and he only said four words.

The TV broadcasted a real-time picture of the hospital, showing a man tied to a diagnosis bed. He had a ferocious expression on his face, baring his teeth at the cameraman, and the bed was shaking with his struggles, as if he would break through the shackles on his body and bite someone else's neck in the next second.

Fang Ming was already breaking out in a cold sweat just by looking at the picture.

He looked at Ruan Jiyan's calm expression and knew that she had already understood something. Sure enough, when he looked at her with a puzzled look, Ruan Jiyan spoke: "Two days ago, there was a hot topic on the Internet, which was about this virus, but it was suppressed in less than an hour."

"So you already knew it at that time?" Fang Ming looked at her. No wonder he heard the two girls talking about zombies in the living room just now.

Then Ruan Jiyan's calm expression can be connected to the large amount of food and daily necessities in her house. She has already anticipated that some kind of zombie outbreak will occur.

"Yes." Ruan Jiyan replied calmly.

Fang Ming looked at this friend who made him feel a little strange, paused for two seconds, and then patted her shoulder to comfort her.

He still couldn't accept that his novel had become reality. Although he seemed calm on the surface, he was actually extremely panicked inside.

So the first thing he wanted to do was to comfort Ruan Jiyan. She might have struggled for a long time when she knew about this.

Ruan Jiyan looked at him and patted his shoulder, then took two steps back and distanced himself from him.

Ruan Jiyan didn't notice the expression on Fang Ming's face. She looked at the watch on her wrist. Now that she had the space, she could put some relatively large things into the space today.

According to the system, the space is kept at a constant temperature and has unlimited capacity, so things will remain the same when you put them in and when you take them out.

This is simply a golden finger that defies the heavens. Yes, if you make good use of it, you will have an endless supply of resources to use.

Not long after the news was broadcast, Ruan Jiyan saw a lot of people rushing back to the neighborhood. She walked to the balcony and looked down, and saw people running home, cursing as they ran, and they looked very angry.

It was just afternoon and many people were at work. Some had just started work when they suddenly heard about the outbreak of the Madman virus. Everyone would be at a loss.

The government is also reminding citizens to stock up and stay at home, and not go out. With this sudden outbreak, supermarkets must be packed with people, and those who failed to grab supplies must be angry.

Potatoes and some harder flour were put into the hot pot first and cooked for a long time.

After Ruan Jiyan briefly explained to the two people, he took them to put some vegetables and water that were not fresh and some larger items into the space. It was already evening, and it was just the right time to eat hot pot.

Fang Ming and Chen Xi also gradually understood this increasingly bizarre world. Without giving it any more thought, the three of them sat down and had a hearty hot pot.

Now that the zombie virus has broken out, it's not safe for Fang Ming and Chen Xi to go back, and Ruan Ji Yan has no plans to let them go back, so at least the three of them can be looked after if they're together.

"Go wash the dishes." Ruan Jiyan pointed to the table in front of Fang Ming.

"Okay." Fang Ming agreed straightforwardly. Anyway, every time they ate together, Fang Ming was the one who washed the dishes.

Ruan Jiyan cleaned up the things on the table and walked out of the kitchen. He glanced at his phone and saw a message...

Countdown: ten minutes.
