Chapter 9

After crossing a path, Lin Feng and Dong Wu returned to the tent where they lived yesterday. Lin Feng decided to find a house to rent in the living area, but Dong Wufei wanted to follow, so Lin Feng acquiesced. There are many dangers in the last days, and it is not bad to have a companion.

Through what happened just now, Dong Wu strengthened his determination to follow Lin Feng. Lin Feng's kindness is extremely rare in this cruel end of the world, and this alone is enough to prove Lin Feng's character.

Back in the tent, Dong Wu didn't have too many belongings, only a few personal daily necessities.

"What's this?"

When tidying up the room, Lin Feng found a small black coin-sized ball under the bed, made of iron but not iron.

"Don't mention it, it hurts when you mention it."

Seeing the little black ball in Lin Feng's hand, Dong Wu didn't raise his head, and didn't care at all.

It's really depressing to say, this black ball was found in the brain of a first-level zombie when Dong Wu went out to hunt zombies.

It stands to reason that the first-level zombie should have white crystals in its brain, but that zombie doesn't have it, only this dark thing. Moreover, that zombie was much more powerful than ordinary first-level zombies. It took Dong Wu and his friends a lot of effort to kill it.

The little black ball brought back could not be used as a white crystal at all, so Dong Wu simply threw it under the bed and ignored it.

Dong Wu hunted and killed hundreds of first-class zombies, but there was only one zombie without white crystals in his head, so he was particularly impressed.

Holding the small black ball in his hand, Lin Feng suddenly felt that the position of the supermarket rune on his arm was a little hot, and a surprising thing happened, the black ball in Lin Feng's hand disappeared in a blink of an eye.

"Did it go into the supermarket?"

Feeling strange, Lin Feng hurried into the supermarket to check. In this apocalyptic world, Lin Feng's only reliance is the supermarket with huge supplies, and Lin Feng doesn't want any accidents in the supermarket.

Entering the supermarket, Lin Feng was dumbfounded. Not only was there no shortage of items in the supermarket, but there was one more item.

It was a large screen hanging from the ceiling in the middle of the supermarket.

The big screen is on, and there is nothing on it, just a progress bar. The progress displayed on the progress bar is 10%, and it emits yellow light, which is very conspicuous.

Could it be?

Staring at the big screen on the ceiling, Lin Feng fell into deep thought.

"Could it be that the black ball was absorbed by the supermarket? The black ball is produced by zombies. It stands to reason that it should be a white crystal with energy. But it can't be used by people. Now it disappears, but there is such a thing in the supermarket. , it seems that it can be used by supermarkets."

After a simple analysis, Lin Feng came to a conclusion.

But what is this progress bar for? Now the progress bar shows 10%, that is to say, it is possible to reach 100% by absorbing 9 more black balls like that.

After reaching 100%, what will appear? Lin Feng had hope in his heart, but also a trace of worry.

After simply tidying up the daily necessities, Lin Feng and Dong Wu walked out of the tent. Greeting everyone along the way, the two left the slums.

Just entering the living area, Dong Wu's eyes were a little moist when he turned around and looked at the slums in front of him.

It has been three years, even though he lives in poverty, Dong Wu still has some nostalgia for this place. Friends, kinship, friendship...all those things related to Dong Wu disappeared one by one here. Thinking of the hardships of living here, Dong Wu shed two lines of tears.

"Let's go, everything here will be the past. A new life is about to begin."

Looking at Dong Wu's appearance, Lin Feng also felt a little sad. Leaving my own world, although there is no concern, but after living for more than twenty years, it is not so easy to let go.

But Lin Feng knew that he was a man, and to be a man was to live like a man. Not only to live, but also to live well, to live wonderfully, to live out one's own world.

Yes, there is a new life.

After listening to Lin Feng's words, Dong Wu wiped away the tears from his eyes, looked into the distance, looked at the blue sky and white clouds, his eyes were full of confidence.

When the two came to the living area, they first went to a place similar to an intermediary to find a place to live.

The intermediary is the base's own industry. After taking over the base, all the houses will be assigned to the base. Occupations that are necessary for the base, such as teachers, doctors, and soldiers, can be allocated houses for free. But if the migrant population wants to live in the base, apart from the tents in the slums, other buildings will cost money.

Since the outbreak of zombies, most of the buildings have been destroyed, and there are not many existing buildings, so the price is not cheap.

For the price of five white crystals a month, Lin Feng rented a two-bedroom apartment of more than 50 square meters. When paying, Dong Wu secretly clicked his tongue, such an expensive price to rent a house is really extravagant. Five white crystals are enough to pay for the residence rights of the base for five months, and now they can only live for one month, which is an astronomical figure for animals. If it were him, he would rather be cruel and buy some rice to eat than spend so much money to live here.

It's not that Lin Feng is wasting money. In this last world, what Lin Feng pays most attention to is safety. Lin Feng didn't know anything about the base, so he had to find a quiet and safe place to live. Fortunately, there are still a lot of white crystals on hand. Excluding those for Dong Wu and the mother and daughter, after paying the rent, Lin Feng still has 335 white crystals on him, which is quite a fortune in the last days. Moreover, there are so many supplies in the supermarket, even if there is a limit, it is enough to maintain a good life.

But Lin Feng didn't want to exchange too many supplies in the supermarket, even if there were warehouses with countless supplies. In the last days, materials are scarce, and any excessive resources may attract the attention of interested people. Lin Feng's current strength is not strong, and he doesn't want to be targeted at this time.

After settling down, Lin Feng and Dong Wu went downstairs to a simple restaurant. It is said that there is no food in the restaurant, just some basic food that can sustain life. It is impossible for the restaurant to have those luxurious foods, and even if there is, it can only exist in the center of the base. It is good for ordinary people to be able to eat enough, even those "white-collar workers" who can get paid.

It took two Bai Jing to order two bowls of pork shredded noodles, which already made Dong Wu's heart ache. We must know that one white crystal is enough for an ordinary person to live for three days, and now I can exchange it for a bowl of noodles. In Dong Wu's view, even a little shredded meat is not worth it.

But there is no other way now, Lin Feng's limit of three pick-ups today has been used up and cannot be used anymore. And if you buy some rice noodles and make them yourself, you will need a lot of pots and pans, and you can't get so many things together in a short time, so you have to eat here.

After taking a mouthful of the noodles on the table, Lin Feng almost vomited it out. It was so unpalatable that it couldn't be compared with the ones in his own world. Not to mention the hard noodles, there was still a musty smell. Even the so-called shredded meat is not much better than beef jerky, and it looks like it has been stored for an unknown amount of time. Now Lin Feng is white, no wonder Dong Wu is so virtuous when eating luncheon meat, the food in the two worlds is simply a world of difference.

Even so, Lin Feng still finished the noodles. Entering the end of the world, one has to accept the reality. Lin Feng warned himself that he must adapt to life in this world as soon as possible. I can't even adapt to life, so how can I talk about surviving in this world.

Just after Lin Feng paid the bill and came out of the restaurant with Dong Wu, Lin Feng suddenly found a familiar figure not far away.
