Chapter 6



Thinking about this, Chen Wan said to System 111 in his mind: "System, help me scan the surroundings. I need to go to the supermarket first."

"The system has received the alert and will continue to activate the alert within a 10-meter range for the host." The system's mechanical voice sounded.

Chen Wan took a deep breath and walked towards the dark elevator entrance. The elevator in the doomsday world had long stopped operating. Chen Wan walked down the stairs carefully, avoiding the corpses under his feet.

When she got off the elevator, her vision widened slightly. However, it was still night, so Chen Wan could only see things within a few steps. As if she had thought of something, she hurriedly asked the system in her mind, "Besides scanning for dangers within ten meters, can you help me scan other objects within range?"

There were rows of shelves here, but it was pitch black inside. Searching through the rows one by one was like looking for a needle in a haystack. It would be dawn before Chen Wan found everything he wanted.

"Okay, host, the system will start scanning now. The two rows of shelves in front of the host are filled with kitchen utensils and other items. These rows of shelves are mostly filled with kitchen utensils." The system's harsh mechanical sound sounded again.

After hearing what the system said, Chen Wan calmed down. "System, help me pay attention to the location of the knife. It's best to use a long knife like the one used for sashimi."

When facing zombies, it is of course safest not to come into contact with them. An ordinary kitchen knife is not as convenient as a long knife.

"Okay, host." After the system answered, it turned on the search mode and quickly determined that the cooking knife Chen Wan wanted was placed on a shelf three steps away from Chen Wan.

"It has been detected that the second shelf on the host's right hand side has the cooking knife that the host needs." As the system finished speaking, a small red dot soon appeared within Chen Wan's sight.

Chen Wan hurriedly moved towards the direction of the small red dot, and sure enough, he found a narrow-edged cooking knife at the location of the system's red dot. Although it was not as easy to hold as a large long knife, it was at least longer than a kitchen knife, about as long as an adult's forearm. Chen Wan hurriedly held the narrow knife in his hand, and by the way, he also picked up a kitchen knife next to the narrow knife.

Just as she was grabbing the kitchen knife, the system warning in her mind sounded again, "A zombie is approaching from behind the host. Please pay attention."

Chen Wan also heard the noise without the system's reminder. She paid attention to the zombies over there and slowed down her pace to move back. Fortunately, the low-level zombies were not conscious and did not move quickly. Chen Wan moved sideways and used the shelf to cover her figure without alarming the zombies.

I'm not afraid of one or two zombies, but I'm afraid that the noise will be too loud and attract a group of zombies.

At the same time, she was giving instructions to the system in her mind: "System, help me keep an eye out for things like children's electronic toys or radios that can make noises."

"Okay, the system is querying and has detected that there is nothing around that the host needs." The system's harsh metallic sound rang out again, appearing particularly eerie against the backdrop of the surrounding darkness.

The system can only scan items within a range of ten meters, so Chen Wan had to continue searching in the supermarket and take a look at where the doors to the supermarket and the underground garage were. Based on her experience in the previous life, there would not be only one door leading to the underground garage from the supermarket, so she only needed to find one of them to enter smoothly.

It was a closed environment, and the surroundings were quiet, except for the occasional foul smell. Chen Wan slowed down her breathing and tried to blend in with the darkness. Fortunately, the zombies had no intelligence and would make noises in the supermarket from time to time. Chen Wan's footsteps were not as abrupt as she had imagined. She walked carefully around the supermarket shelves, and at the same time, the system was searching for what she was looking for. Finally, in the children's toy area, Chen Wan found the children's toys.

Compared to things like food, no one touched useless things like children's toys, so the two rows of shelves were piled high. Chen Wan carefully found a sand sculpture sunflower doll, the kind that would sing when batteries were put in. She carefully put the batteries in the doll and put it into a backpack she had just picked up when passing by the backpack area. She also took out two electric remote control cars and a radio. She didn't know what the garage would look like, so Chen Wan had to make preparations first.

She put the kitchen knife into her bag and put it behind her back, holding only the narrow knife in her hand. She took a quick look when she came here just now. After entering the supermarket, she walked to the northernmost end and turned west to find an exit. Chen Wan did not waste any more time, trying to pay attention to her movements and moving quickly towards the exit.

She had experience as a special forces soldier in her previous life, and even in the darkness she could predict the dangers that might come around her. Coupled with the system's bonus, when Chen Wan arrived at the garage entrance, she didn't even alarm any zombies in the supermarket.

Entering the corridor of the underground garage, the light was extremely dim, as if it was shrouded in a thin black fog, and no sunlight could be seen. Chen Wan's forehead was soaked with cold sweat. At this moment, she could only hold the narrow knife tightly in her hand, and keep an eye on whether there were any red dots around.

This time, Chen Wan was not as lucky as before. There were a few shadowy red dots a few meters in front of her.

Chen Wan stood against the wall, trying to find a support position, then held his breath and waited quietly for the zombies to move away from the entrance. But one of the zombies came towards Chen Wan, and it seemed that it was going to enter the supermarket through the corridor.

Chen Wan stood there motionless, just hoping that the zombie would pass by her quickly. Soon, a fishy smell came as the zombie approached the shop. Chen Wan did not want to fight the zombie in such a conspicuous place. In an open place like a parking lot, it might bring her into big trouble.

However, even though zombies have no reason, they have an extraordinary keen sense of fresh human flesh. Soon, the tall male zombie tilted its head and slowly came towards Chen Wan. The system also noticed the zombie's approach, and the small red dot determined the zombie's location.

While keeping an eye on the zombies, Chen Wan quickly pulled off the backpack on his back and took out the sunflower doll he had just picked up. Chen Wan glanced at the button on it and pressed it as if he had made up his mind.

The sand sculpture sunflower doll twists its branches and blows a trumpet, accompanied by the dazzling colored lights and singing.

"Put it close to your ear, Sharon, hey yo..."①

The little toy that was originally for fun turned out to be Chen Wan's life-saving capital. A cheerful song sounded, followed by the sound of something stirring.

Long before the zombies in front of her rushed towards her, Chen Wan had already thrown the sand sculpture sunflower in her hand into the narrow corridor leading to the supermarket. At the same time, Chen Wan quickly ran behind several SUVs in front of her.

The zombie who was about to catch Chen Wan was also a little hesitant, not knowing whether to continue chasing Chen Wan to eat his meat, or to follow the sound just now. However, when he was distracted, Chen Wan had already run away without a trace. The male zombie simply followed the sound and walked into the corridor.

Chen Wan had already had the system scan her. She was now hiding behind a white SUV, not far from the entrance. What happened next was that even though Chen Wan, who had performed many difficult tasks and remained calm in the face of adversity, felt a chill on her back. As the sand sculpture toys made sounds, the zombies in the underground garage continued to gather towards the entrance. There were no less than a hundred of them, and these irrational guys were all rushing towards the source of the sound like crazy.

Chen Wan took a deep breath and began to walk quickly in the opposite direction. She had to bind to the RV as soon as possible to get the maximum protection given by the system, and at the same time leave Zhang Qiang's sphere of influence as quickly as possible.

The parking lot is full of cars, and there is a row of medium-sized parking spaces in front of me.

There was also a row of small minibuses parked there. Chen Wan suppressed his joy and walked quickly towards the place where the small minibuses were. He could see the parking spaces for the small minibuses. Perhaps this world was different from his own, and large vehicles could also be parked in the underground garage.

Unfortunately, after searching around, Chen Wan couldn't find the RV he wanted in the underground garage. On the contrary, because the supermarket needed to transport goods, the ceiling of this basement floor was built very high, and large trucks could drive in from the entrance. At this moment, there was a truck parked on this side of the transportation channel.

Chen Wan sighed. Although he didn't find the RV, things were not so bad as to be unimaginable. At least he could rely on the system to fuse an RV out of the basement, so he wouldn't have to wait until the RV was fused and bound and then couldn't drive out.

Chen Wan cleared his mind and immediately asked the system in his mind: "Then can you scan which vehicles would be best to merge into an RV? How long will it take?"

"The truck is huge and can be used as the base for the modification. Four more ordinary vehicles are needed to complete the modification. It will take five hours to complete all the modifications." The system's mechanical voice sounded again.

"Okay, then how do we make the modifications? Do you need me to get in the car? We don't have much time." Chen Wan took a breath and asked hurriedly. She didn't know how long the sand sculpture toys over there could last. After dawn, Zhang Qiang and his men would also be a threat. She didn't have much time left.

"Because there is no RV absorption device for the first fusion, the host needs to drive the car himself to make the cars fit together so that the system can bind and fuse them." The system explained calmly.

But when Chen Wan heard it, she couldn't remain calm anymore. Driving all the cars together would definitely make a huge noise. By then, it was very likely that she would be killed for the second time before the RV was even tied together.

Chen Wan wiped the sweat from the side of his face and took out the backpack behind him. There was a radio inside. Before the system asked, Chen Wan quickly walked to another door leading to the supermarket in the underground garage.

Compared to the hustle and bustle in the corridor over there, this side seemed quiet. Chen Wan quickly entered the supermarket from the east door and stopped at a location far away from the garage.

She was afraid that the radio would be stepped on and damaged by these brainless things if it was placed low, so she reached out to untie the laces of her left sneaker, then stood up and looked around. She turned the nearest shelf to her sideways, pushed the three shelves next to it together, then stepped onto the shelf that had fallen to the ground and climbed to the top of the shelf. She controlled her body balance and struggled to stand up.

The small black grid on the top is the air outlet of the central air conditioner. Chen Wan installed the battery of the radio and tied the radio to the air outlet with shoelaces, so that these brainless zombies would not damage the radio so easily. There was a test button on the radio with songs stored in advance. Chen Wan was not worried about the lack of sound when he pressed it, but he was not sure whether the radio could last until he drove all the cars together.

But she had no time to think about it now, and there was no way out.

The next moment, Chen Wan pressed the test button on the radio.
