Chapter 509 Natural Disaster Game World Passerby A3
After packing up, she sent her curious younger brother away. Since the bottled water bottle had been opened, she resealed the opening with tape so that some tape could be left in, which might come in handy someday.
After packing up, we went to the supermarket to help Jiang's mom with the shop and chat. After the supermarket closed, we went home together. When we got home, Grandpa was sitting there. After chatting for a while, he asked Jiang Yue what she was doing with the knife. Jiang Yue said she wanted to exercise before the New Year. Perhaps because Jiang Yue doesn't lie much, Grandpa didn't suspect anything. He just asked if we should get her a new, unsharpened knife, since the current one was too dangerous.
"Let's do it tomorrow. It's too late tonight, so let's not bother. I'll sleep in tomorrow and won't practice either. Aren't you going to help slaughter pigs tomorrow? Let's change when you get back."
"Okay."
After seeing her grandfather off, Jiang Yue planned to go home to sleep. Before going back to her room, her mother asked her what she wanted to eat for breakfast the next morning.
"Mom, you can decide what to make. Anything is fine for breakfast, but I'd like braised pork knuckle for lunch."
"Didn't we eat today? Do you want to eat again tomorrow?"
"Hmm, I haven't had enough. Heat up another one for me."
"Okay, if no one else is eating it, can you finish it all by yourself? Or should I heat up half for you?"
"It's okay, I'll probably eat it now."
"Indeed, I thought you'd been starving for three days after last night's meal. You didn't gain any skills from going out, but you did gain a big appetite."
After finishing their conversation, the family went home to sleep. Although Jiang Yue was leaving at noon, she figured she wouldn't be able to sleep well in the zombie world. She had originally planned to have breakfast, but she slept until ten o'clock and skipped breakfast altogether.
By the time she finished cleaning, it was almost 11 o'clock. Jiang's parents had prepared lunch, all according to Jiang Yue's schedule. Jiang Yue ate a lot at lunch; if she wasn't afraid of scaring them, she would have liked to eat more. There were still ten minutes until 12 o'clock after lunch, so Jiang Yue went back to her room, put on thick clothes, and changed her shoes into Type 21 combat boots, which were genuine military-grade and very durable.
As midnight approached, Jiang Yue picked up the water bottle with one hand and carried the food and knife with the other. The moment the countdown on her wrist disappeared, Jiang Yue vanished from the room along with her belongings.
When Jiang Yue regained consciousness, she found herself surrounded by more than a dozen zombies. Her belongings were placed around her, and because the items made a sound when they hit the ground, the zombies immediately surrounded her. Jiang Yue rolled over, grabbed a knife, drew it from its sheath, and began slashing at the zombies.
Perhaps because the first world wasn't very difficult, the zombies weren't very fast, similar to the zombies in the show The Walking Dead. Jiang Yue didn't spend much time dealing with this wave of zombies. After dealing with the zombies, she didn't stay on the street, but carried a water bottle and some food to the shops next to the street.
The shop's door was already broken, and all the glass was shattered. Jiang Yue had to walk carefully inside, afraid of stepping on the glass and attracting zombies. After reaching the second floor of the shop, Jiang Yue put her things at the bottom of the stairs, then picked up her knife and checked the second floor. After confirming that it was safe, Jiang Yue opened the panel.
She didn't rush to look at the chat in the channel; she knew there wouldn't be any valuable information. Her backpack was no longer grayed out and could be clicked normally. Jiang Yue put the food and water away. She didn't plan to leave the knife behind for the time being; she wasn't planning on using cheats and was just an ordinary person.
Upon entering this world, a new "Tasks" button appeared on the side panel. Jiang Yue clicked it, and the information displayed was as follows:
[Main Quest]: Survive for 30 days [1/30]
[Side Quest 1] Kill 10 zombies [10/10] [Completed] Reward: 1 point.
[Side Quest 2] Kill 100 zombies [0/100] [Incomplete] Reward: 15 points.
[Side Quest 3] Kill 1000 zombies [0/1000] [Incomplete] Reward: 200 points
The main quests don't have rewards, but the side quests do. After the game ends, you can use points to buy skills or equipment in the shop. Expanding your inventory also requires points. Jiang Yue knew that the first time you expand, it would cost 100 points, and the points required for subsequent expansions would definitely increase. She didn't even need to think about it to know that.
After reviewing the mission, Jiang Yue checked the channel. The number of survivors was 7/10, which meant that three people had died in a short period of time. Looking at the posts, she realized that there were zombies all around when they joined, and no one was an exception. After reading through the posts, she realized that they were all just pieces of useless information. Jiang Yue closed the panel and decided not to pay attention anymore. She would wait until they calmed down before continuing.
After getting up, Jiang Yue wandered around the second floor, looking for something useful to collect. She found a few books, but she didn't recognize the characters on them. Without any reference points, it would take her some time to recognize them, and she didn't have that much time to waste on learning characters right now.
However, this book can be used to start a fire at night. It's quite cold now, probably winter, and there's a spare compartment. Later, when I find wood, I can replace it with wood. Wood provides much more heat than books. After leaving the shop, Jiang Yue came to the street. Jiang Yue planned to walk along this street and search it first.
Jiang Yue walked from shop to shop, not daring to go too fast, afraid of bumping into things and making noise that would attract a zombie attack. There were fifty or sixty shops on the street, but not a single useful item. They must have been searched several times. She couldn't even find a few broken chairs to start a fire at night. Those two books were the only things she found.
Jiang Yue, who had originally planned to stay here, changed her mind. As time went by, the temperature dropped drastically, and even with gloves on, her hands were getting cold. Fortunately, she had put on several layers of clothing beforehand, so she didn't lose her ability to move.
After leaving the street, Jiang Yue saw a residential area. There were four zombies on the road leading to the residential area. They were not gathered together, so it didn't affect Jiang Yue's move to a new location. She took out a Snickers bar to replenish her energy, took out two books from her inventory and put them in her pocket, put the knife back in her inventory, did some warm-up exercises, and then ran towards the residential area.
Jiang Yue's running attracted the zombies, but they couldn't outrun her. By the time she rushed into the residential area, they were still on their way. Once inside, she looked around and saw no firelight, so it seemed no one lived there. However, she couldn't be sure; the firelight might not be able to reach them.
After hearing the commotion, three zombies ran out of Unit 1 of the first building. Jiang Yue stretched out her hands, took out her knife, and chopped the zombies off like vegetables. After entering the building, she ran straight upstairs. Before entering the building, Jiang Yue estimated that the building had about four floors. She planned to go to the third floor to see if there was anything she could use to start a fire.
