Volume 1: Treading the Dead Chapter 2: Finding Supplies

Gu...

Su Chen's thoughts were brought back to reality with the powerful call.

The familiar streets are full of cannibal zombies, the once eye-catching luxury cars are now scrap metal, money has become ridiculous, everything has become different.

Su Chen stood quietly, until the hunger returned again, and he realized that some things were unavoidable no matter how he avoided them.

Su Chen walked slowly back to the house, his timidity, entanglement, and uneasiness were slowly dispelled. He wanted to go out, today, in the early morning, he needed food, and he wanted to live.

He had prepared the equipment he needed to go out as early as the first night when the apocalypse broke out. At that time, he had already made plans for today, but there was a huge difference between his thoughts and practice.

The only equipment Su Chen had available was the "parts" removed from the wooden chair, not even a kitchen knife. He was probably the worst-equipped survivor among all the survivors who went out to look for food.

In order to ensure that he would not be bitten, Su Chen's forearm was wrapped with a book and tape.

In this way, although it will slightly affect his actions, safety can be greatly guaranteed. He believes that even if humans become zombies, their essence will not change. Their teeth cannot bite through three centimeters thick materials.

books.

An empty travel bag and a half-meter-long sharp wooden stick were all the equipment he had for this trip.

Su Chen walked slowly to the door of the living room. It had only been two days since the apocalypse broke out. In the past two days, he couldn't remember how many times he had seen this closed door. He didn't know how many times he had struggled with it. Now he was finally about to open the door.

.

For a moment, he actually had the illusion of being relieved.

The familiar sound of opening the door brought with it a different mood. Su Chen's heartbeat was already a little uneven, but the moment the door opened, it became even more powerful and rapid.

Maybe it was instinct or some other reason, but my stomach, which kept crying out for hunger, stopped making noises.

Su Chen looked around, and after seeing nothing unusual, he lightly closed the security door. He didn't want to be in danger just because he opened the door for a short period of time.

Su Chen's original target was the neighbor in the same corridor. Because the food available was very limited and the level of danger was not low, he decided to either not do it or to do it with a big ticket.

His target this time was the canteen on the ground floor.

He has been to the canteen on the ground floor several times. He walked out of the stairway and turned left. He only had to run about ten meters to get there.

Although it's not far away, there are a lot of zombies on the street and the level of danger is extremely high.

The corridor was unusually quiet, and Su Chen did not deliberately suppress the sound of footsteps. After all, if zombies have higher hearing than ordinary people, it would be useless no matter how well he suppressed his footsteps.

The building where Su Chen lived was connected to the street. It was usually not so quiet during the day or night, and the number of people was naturally not small. Su Chen held the wooden stick tightly. As long as something was wrong, he would not even distinguish whether it was alive or not.

Humans are still zombies, just focus on stabbing.

On the sixth staircase, Su Chen lowered his head and looked down. He couldn't see any moving shadow at all. Could zombies still use the stairs?

Su Chen shook his head slightly to get rid of these unhelpful thoughts. This was good. At least he didn't need to worry about zombies suddenly attacking before reaching the ground floor.

It is winter now, and the temperature in the early morning can reach minus five degrees. The unique sea breeze from coastal cities blows on Su Chen, making it extremely uncomfortable.

Compared to the room under the air-conditioning and warm air, the outside world is simply a hell on earth.

At the corner of the stairs on the ground floor of the small building, Su Chen had been staying here for a while. Not far in front of him, about ten meters away, zombies kept passing by.

Su Chen was not sure whether these zombies had vision, and if so, how far they could see. Similarly, hearing and smell were also unknown.

In the thirty seconds Su Chen stayed there, there were at least ten zombies passing by his sight. In other words, once he caused a stir, he would most likely be chased by a group of zombies. Not to mention replenishing food, he would be able to

Not being able to run away is a big problem.

He didn't dare to take risks and chose to wait where he was. He didn't believe that these zombies would keep walking back and forth here.

In fact, these unconscious zombies moved around randomly. Su Chen's luck was obviously not good.

Su Chen waited for an hour, and the sun gradually rose. Su Chen went from looking around, to standing hard, and finally sat down on the stairs.

It seems that without paying some price, it is impossible to get something in return.

Su Chen sighed, took out his mobile phone from his trouser pocket, took out the mobile phone sim card, and set the alarm clock to sound in five minutes.

He prayed in his heart that these zombies had no vision, otherwise the sound of light would not be able to attract them. Su Chen stood up, gathered his strength, and threw the phone in the green area ten meters away. He prayed in his heart that these zombies were all blind.

Compared with the previous hour, these five minutes were more difficult to endure. Fortunately, he still waited for the alarm clock on his phone.

Familiar music sounded in Su Chen's ears, and the zombies around him suddenly became commotion. Their slow pace quickened and they quickly walked towards the haystack.

In terms of appearance alone, these zombies are no different from ordinary people. Whether it’s their faces, bodies, or eyes, their eyes have pupils!

It just loses the color, which may be useful, but the viewing distance is definitely very close.

This is good news.

Su Chen did not turn the alarm clock on his cell phone to the loudest setting. The sound of the alarm clock on his cell phone could probably attract zombies about twenty meters away. If it was further away, Su Chen might have entered the canteen but not been able to get out.

Zombies on the street begin to gather towards the landing point of the mobile phone. The alarm clock on the mobile phone will ring for one minute. If it is not turned off, it will automatically ring again ten minutes later. This cycle continues until the battery is exhausted.

Ten minutes is enough for Su Chen to plunder a backpack of food.

Su Chen flashed and quickly walked out of the door at the bottom of the stairway. He kept his footsteps as low as possible and walked quickly to the canteen. Without thinking, he pushed the door open and entered.

Su Chen stepped in, turned around and closed the glass door. He focused his right hand and put the sharp wooden stick in front of his body, looking around with a vigilant expression.

The glass door is not locked, and it is unlikely that there are living people living in the canteen, which means that the place may be occupied by zombies.

The canteen is not big, and you can see to the end at a glance. The snacks on the shelves are arranged in an orderly manner. It has obviously not been visited since the end of the world. Su Chen should be the first batch, or even the first person.

Su Chen walked a few steps and made sure that there was no one in the canteen and there were no zombies. Only then did his nervous beating heart ease. He quickly walked to the deepest part of the canteen. He remembered that there were fruit knives for sale there.

Sure enough, three fruit knives, no more than ten centimeters in length, were hung in an orderly manner on the sales counter.

Su Chen dropped the wooden stick in his hand, quickly opened the packaging box of the fruit knife, and tried it in his hand.
