Chapter 10 Storage Space Upgrade
However, it's not surprising that separation and death become more common after the apocalypse. No wonder Arnold, whom David met, was always silent and depressed in his gaze, and David thought he had always been that way. But now, the Arnold in front of David seemed quite cheerful, with no signs of depression.
It's not hard to imagine that he must have had a painful experience that caused his personality to change so much. No wonder Arnold never mentioned his past experiences. Even until Arnold's death, David still didn't know what he used to do. In his heart, David silently thought, "In my previous life, you saved my life, so I owe you one in this life."
In his previous life, even in a life and death crisis, Arnold still thought of letting David survive. As an ability user, Arnold might have been able to get out of the zombie tide on his own if he had abandoned David. But he chose to give David the hope of surviving, simply because David once gave him a box of cookies.
Arnold took out his phone and wanted to return the money that David had paid for the barbecue as a thank you. David didn't accept it as a few hundred yuan had no meaning to him. After purchasing a large amount of supplies, he still had over ten thousand yuan left in his account, and if he didn't spend it all, it would be useless next month. "If you want to thank me, do business with me. I want to ask you to buy something for me."
Arnold readily agreed. "Sure, brother David, tell me what you need."
David said, "Prepare about ten thousand yuan worth of barbecue seasoning and charcoal for me on April 1st, and I'll come and pick it up. Remember to close the doors and windows and open them when I arrive." David's request was a bit strange, but Arnold didn't think much about it and agreed.
After all, they usually closed during the day and only did business at night. David scanned them two thousand yuan with his phone. "This is a deposit." After paying the deposit, David left.
For Arnold now, they just met and even if David wanted to get together, there was nothing left to reunite with. On the way back, David thought to himself, "Not bad, I didn't expect Arnold to be good at barbecuing. Why didn't I notice this skill in my previous life?"
David was worried about how to handle the food he had stockpiled, as he wasn't good at cooking. "Now that he had a cook, Barbecuing is great. I love it the most." David didn't expect to reunite with his friend from his previous life in this way, making him feel very good tonight. ...
Today is the 25th day after David's rebirth, and there are only five days left until the end of the world. He is standing at the entrance of the warehouse he rented, waiting for the customized armor to be delivered. The twenty performance knives he ordered earlier have already been delivered and stored in David's storage space.
As for the supplies he ordered such as pork, grains, cooking oil, mineral water, vegetables, and fruits, they have been delivered one after another in the first 15 days. Since these supplies were delivered in batches, it didn't attract anyone's attention, and the delivery drivers thought David was running a food company.
These days, David orders takeout worth thousands of dollars every day, and sometimes he goes out to various restaurants to search for delicious food. When no one is paying attention, David stores the food in his storage space, makes a copy of it a hundred thousand times, and puts one copy back on the dining table.
His storage space is now filled with all kinds of food. In short, David has been hoarding all kinds of supplies as much as possible for the past 20+ days. At present, David's storage space has millions of tons of food and various supplies, which makes him feel very relieved.
Today is the day when David's customized armor is supposed to be delivered, but the studio encountered some technical difficulties during the process of making it. Fortunately, the boss was reliable enough to deliver it before the end of the world arrived. With the arrival of the armor, all the supplies David purchased online are finally complete.
Bored, David was scrolling through his phone, and at 10 o'clock in the morning, the armor finally arrived. The armor was packed in a specially made wooden box. After the deliveryman left, David unpacked the box by hand and a set of modern-looking armor appeared before his eyes. Since David requested ultimate practicality, the armor was not made in the style of ancient armor.
The design of this armor is closer to that of modern riot gear used by the police. David put on the armor and found that it was very lightweight and the joints of the limbs were very flexible.
David was very satisfied, get what you pay for. Although the armor was expensive, its quality was really good. With this armor, even if David was pinned down by a group of zombies, the armor would be able to protect him for a while. Of course, this only applies to the early stages of the apocalypse.
Zombies and mutants will continue to evolve and mutate over time, and their strength is not constant. David had discovered this cruel reality in his previous life. With the evolution of zombies, ordinary people like him might ultimately face extinction.
Only superhumans can keep up with the speed of zombie evolution, and most ordinary humans are destined to be eliminated. Ever since the appearance of zombies and mutants, humans are no longer at the top of the food chain.
After David stored the armor in his storage space, the system prompted him:
[You have obtained a modern armor, and the critical hit effect is multiplied by 100,000!]
[Congratulations, you have obtained 100,000 modern armors!]
Instantly, 100,000 sets of armor appeared in David's storage space. David discovered something interesting - he could summon the armor directly onto his body from the storage space.
This meant that he didn't have to wear the armor all the time, he could just summon it during combat.
Shortly after David stored the armor in the space,the system's prompt sounded in his mind:
[Congratulations, host, you have reached the S-level standard for material reserves, and your storage space is upgrading!]
[Congratulations, host, your storage space is upgraded from 50 million cubic meters to 100 million cubic meters!]
[You have received a reward: critical hit reward is extended for three days!]
The system gave David a small surprise. "Extended for three days, which means that After the outbreak of apocalypse, I can collect supplies for three more days?"
After the outbreak of apocalypse, David could only rely on money to purchase supplies.But after the outbreak, the order instantly collapsed, and everything on the streets became ownerless. Whoever could kill their way out of the zombies would get those supplies. For a moment, David had a plan in his mind.
