Looking at the pop-up data, Lin Xia remembered the weather forecast. She had been so comfortable and withdrawn for those seven days that she had completely forgotten about this skill. After all, with her protective shield, she was not afraid of any wind or rain.
But we still have to use this skill to benefit the customers who patronize our little shop.

Lin Xia chose to participate in the lottery.
Congratulations on obtaining: [Skill Card - Martial Arts]

Have fun playing the game, and I look forward to seeing you again.
[Backup successful: Backup skill card - Martial Arts, requires 500 Survival Points]
[Martial arts: You can master this skill instantly, but how much you master depends on yourself.]
Just as Lin Xia put the card into her spatial storage, a flash appeared before her eyes.
Looking closer, she realized she was on the side of the road in a commercial district, though it didn't seem to be in the city center. But there were so many people here, which made her tense. However, there was an advantage: it was very convenient to buy things.
People were coming and going around her, and it seemed that no one noticed anything was wrong. She used her mental power to scan the surroundings, especially those who were standing still, but she did not find any items.
She took out her phone, downloaded offline maps of her city S and the whole country, and then borrowed money from various lending platforms. This time she was lucky and borrowed a total of 63,843 yuan, which she used to stock up on supplies.
Lin Xia quickly put on a mask, found the nearest supermarket, and grabbed some compressed biscuits and four bottles of water. She then noticed two other people nearby who were also only carrying compressed biscuits and water. Lin Xia scanned them with her mental energy.
Backup successful: 1 sun hat backup, 10 survival points required.
[Sun hat: Effectively blocks UV rays, usage time: 120 hours]
Backup successful: Fishing net*1 backup, survival points required: 10
[Fishing Net: I will never be empty-handed!]
"This game has all sorts of items," Lin Xia complained.
Without stopping, I grabbed water and compressed biscuits, quickly ran to the convenience food section, grabbed boxed instant noodles, vermicelli, mixed noodles, self-heating hot pot, and hot and sour noodles, without even looking at the taste, and just filled the shopping cart.
Ham sausages, luncheon meat, beef, braised eggs, a portable gas stove, a gas canister, a kettle, chopsticks, and another shopping cart is filled.
After paying, I pushed the cart to the restroom and, while no one was around, put all the items into my storage space.
This time, Lin Xia wasn't as cautious as she was in the previous world. In the previous world, she didn't know the type of disaster and was afraid of being caught out by someone, plus she didn't have much strength.
She was much more open-minded in this world, because the appearance of zombies would inevitably lead to chaos in the city, and no one would investigate any abnormalities.
I quickly walked out of the supermarket and went to the pharmacy next door to buy anti-inflammatory drugs, cold medicine, fever reducers, alcohol, disinfectant, masks, and gloves.
I saw a clothing store selling sportswear and bought ten sets of windbreakers and five pairs of sneakers.
She hailed a taxi, first taking her things to the bathroom to put them into her spatial storage, then quickly changed her clothes. She got in the taxi and headed towards the outskirts of the city; she didn't want to be trapped in the city like in the last game.
To her surprise, she waited for more than twenty minutes for the taxi. Feeling anxious, she ran to a convenience store on the roadside and bought a large bag of candy and chocolate, as well as a case of water.
Being in a crowded city always gave her a sense of unease, especially with zombies; the more people there were, the more dangerous it would be.
Moreover, zombies are different from others. If this time it wasn't a thermobaric bomb, but a nuclear bomb, then we would really be dead.
While waiting, she looked at the map. This place was closer to L City. If she went to H City, she would have to cross three-quarters of the city and pass through the city center, which was risky. So she decided to head towards L City.
"Master, I'm in a hurry, can you hurry up? I can pay more." He then set the price increase on the platform.
"no problem."
Once she got on the bus, she started stuffing her things into her backpack, secretly transferring them into her storage space, until finally everything was inside.
Lin Xia took out her phone to check the messages, and sure enough, a QR code for joining the group had appeared on Weibo. She scanned it and joined.
[Haha, I'm in the game too! This is so awesome! I need to have hot pot first; I'm getting so bored eating bread every day.]
Yeah, I ate braised pork knuckle rice. People thought I was starving, but actually, I've only eaten a pack of instant noodles I managed to snag in the last two days.
Watch this! My super spicy seafood feast! Awesome!
......
Are you guys idiots? Instead of stocking up on supplies, you went to eat first? This time it's zombies!
[Yeah, with this little money, we can't even buy compressed biscuits and water, let alone find a place to store them. The worst part is we don't have any weapons! I'm almost frantic, and you guys are still eating...]
After taking a look, Lin Xia found no useful information and went back to browse the news. There was nothing unusual in the news either, so Lin Xia was not surprised.
As she drove away from the commercial area and saw fewer pedestrians on the road, she breathed a sigh of relief. However, as she got closer to the outskirts of the city, she encountered a traffic jam.
"Sir, what's going on? Why are there so many cars?"
"Little sister, don't you know? XX Group in L City is hiring. The announcement was released in a hurry, and many people couldn't buy train or plane tickets to L City or book hotels, so they booked in S City instead. The taxis have been very busy these past two days. I thought you were going there to apply for the job too."
Lin Xia did see the news, but since the company was hiring, she didn't pay much attention. Now, she quickly opened Baidu to search for information about the company and casually asked, "What does this company do?"
"Hey, they do a lot of things, but mainly cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, especially cosmeceuticals and the research and development of drugs to treat viruses. They're the best at that."
When Lin Xia heard the word "virus," her heart skipped a beat. Looking around, she saw long lines of cars, all three lanes completely blocked, and she felt numb.
"Sir, how much would it cost to get there by taxi?"
"It's not far, it's at the border of L City and S City, maybe seventy or eighty."
It's not far... Lin Xia wanted to cry but had no tears. Was this a suicide mission...?
I paid 100 yuan by scanning the QR code: "Sir, I have something to do and I'll be leaving now. You'd better leave too."
As soon as she opened the car door, there was a loud 'bang,' and half a corpse fell from the roof of the car in front of her. The master inside the car got out cursing and yelling, "Ahhh—"
