But Shen Jing soon discovered that the base's warehouse had much more to offer.
Although only one lamp remained, there was no trace of decay.
The outside is basically full of zombies.
But once inside the base building, there was absolutely no smell left.
The stench of decaying corpses was only noticeable before entering the building, but it quickly dissipated in front of the skyscraper. Shen Jing opened the car door and got out, then turned around slightly, finally spotting the warehouse.
Even if they had long been aware of the need to integrate games and reality.
But seeing He Qing use the items in the game still shocked her!
This prop was the draft she drew while working overtime!
Fog shielding device – “Air Purifier”.
It's a small item used in the Fog Dungeon.
How did it end up here when it also requires defeating monsters?
She looked at He Qing with a puzzled expression, only to see that the latter had already transformed back into the gentle base commander, and then smiled at her, saying, "Since it's a game, there's a strategy guide. Ah Jing, this world is the embodiment of your ideas!"
Upon hearing this, Shen Jing got goosebumps all over her body.
This statement made her extremely uncomfortable, as if... she was the source of all the tragedies!
But He Qing simply approached her slowly and continued in a gentle voice, "Ah Jing, I'm really happy to have come into this world and meet you. Actually, I think if we cooperate, we'll definitely be able to clear the level very quickly."
Yes, completing the game means the end of the apocalypse.
That's how the game is designed.
Shen Jing barely managed to hold back her gaze from glancing at Gu Yan.
But He Qing had already guessed her thoughts and pressed her advantage, whispering, "Our enemy has always been quite obvious, hasn't he? Like those props you designed, they all exist. Ah Jing... stop deceiving yourself..."
That last sentence made Shen Jing take a step back.
It landed right on Gu Yan's foot.
It turned out that Gu Yan had already stood behind her, holding her arms to help her steady her trembling body.
Gu Yan did not hear the details of their conversation.
But judging from Shen Jing's reaction, it's clear that she didn't say anything nice!
"What did you say to her?" Gu Yan pulled Shen Jing behind him and stared at He Qing with a sinister look.
He Qing still had a gentle smile on his face.
He didn't even glance at Gu Yan, as if the person standing in front of him was something extremely filthy.
"Ah Jing, I'm waiting for your reply."
After saying that, he turned and walked out of the warehouse.
Before leaving, he instructed his men to transfer all the supplies from the open truck to the SUV. He told them that if they couldn't move them all, they should send others to help transport them, and absolutely no supplies should be withheld.
Shen Jing stood beside the vehicle, still thinking about He Qing's words.
It seems that he didn't get the props; they were given to him by someone else, and that person is very likely Gu Chen!
Gu Chen already knows the truth about the merging of the two worlds.
And what about Gu Yan?
She suddenly looked up at Gu Yan...
"You know, right?" Shen Jing's voice was very soft, and it soon drifted away with the wind amidst the noise of moving supplies.
"What do you know?" Gu Yan clenched his fists, a mocking smile playing on his lips.
"...Okay, we'll talk about it when we get back."
Shen Jing responded, but didn't move, remaining standing in front of the car door.
Seeing her like this, the coldness in Gu Yan's eyes lessened slightly, and he helped her open the passenger door.
"Get in the car." She nudged the dazed Shen Jing. "He Qing smelled awful just now."
He brought this up even though he clearly used a prop to filter the air.
Handing the key to Gu Yan, Shen Jing said, "I know you want to kill Gu Chen, but he's not here."
If she's not mistaken.
Gu Chen must have gone to find the light orb.
He needs more leverage to cooperate with He Qing and others!
Outside of the game's context, Gu Chen simply lacked the resources to conduct large-scale research. And the game's perverted dissection maniac certainly wouldn't give up easily; he'd definitely need manpower and influence to support him!
"Okay, let's talk about it when we get back."
Gu Yan pushed Shen Jing into the car.
Zhang Ze has just loaded the generator onto the vehicle.
He wisely waited until He Qing left before pushing over the other supplies.
"Gu Yan, you guys are amazing! You managed to get so much stuff!" And it's especially rare that you've got everything you need, from clothing and food to shelter and transportation!
"Is everything moved in?"
"It'll be soon! My brother has arranged for someone to come and help me!"
Zhang Ze was happy to use the helpers sent by Zhang Run; after all, there was no harm in using them.
In the post-apocalyptic world, even the most ambitious people will become realistic.
Zhang Ze, who has always been fiercely opposed to evil, has become reckless and unscrupulous ever since his walkie-talkie was stolen. His motto is: risk your life, don't be ashamed; getting something for nothing is the only real goal, everything else is just empty talk!
Thinking it was time for dinner, the people below worked even faster.
On the way back, two more cars followed us, one of which was driven by people from the base.
When we got back to our self-built house, the fastest thing was unloading the supplies. There was a box of instant noodles, various canned meats, bags of rice and flour, and even a whole case of bottled water!
The generator was moved last, but everyone who was supposed to see it saw it.
Not only do we have generators, but we also have gasoline that we can exchange for at the base.
The exchange materials used were medicines. Since medicines couldn't be eaten, it was unanimously decided to use medicines for the exchange.
Yang Muyi lit the stove and added charcoal to help it burn.
Using cured pork ribs as the soup base, and thinking that Shen Jing and the others' safe return was worth celebrating, she also took a few more sausages and dried vegetables.
The aroma, quickly wafting from the kitchen to the doorway, nearly made the two survivors who were helping with the transport lose their footing. Luckily, Zhang Ze was quick-witted and slipped a pack of cigarettes into their arms.
This thing is incredibly rare and valuable in the apocalypse.
In the past, you had to give someone a gift when you asked them for a favor.
But now, Hua Zi can practically save lives.
Of course, this was also the case in the eyes of the two survivors.
One of these can buy half a month's worth of food!
Shen Jing also saw the fragrance. If they had game items, they could definitely stop the fragrance from spreading. But most of them were currently playing game characters and had no idea that the game was real.
But they'll find out sooner or later, right?
Shen Jing lowered her eyes, suddenly wondering if she would be kicked out.
She walked to the stove in the kitchen, sat down, and took out canned chicken and canned fruit from her backpack.
"Let's add some dishes." To celebrate the release of the in-game item.
"Just put it away, it's hard to go from extravagance to frugality, honey." Yang Muyi seemed to be in a better mood than Shen Jing was before she left, it seemed she had a good talk with Yang Muyi. "And stop thinking about helping us out, we all have hands and feet!"
Yes, why do we always think about helping them out?
It's because you feel guilty! Just admit it, Shen Jing!
And that's exactly how they treated Gu Yan.
The past love in the dream may be false.
But the fact is that he suffered abuse for more than a decade!
