Volume 1 Three Months After the End of the World Chapter 4: A husband who eats batteries?
Shen Jin rubbed his eyes as he walked into the "secret room" in the basement. It was called a secret room, but it was actually just a hidden door that could be opened with a key.
If there really are craftsmen, such as Xiao Yang who is trapped underground, there is no way to defend against them.
"How should we deal with these three people? Same as the ones we had last time? Or..."
Shen Jin pondered for a moment and decided to starve them for a few meals to reduce their physical strength. Otherwise, if that muscular man had any evil ideas, it would be bad.
"after all……"
Shen Jin sighed, as if remembering something.
"After all, dealing with corpses is troublesome!"
It’s also not conducive to maintaining mental health in the end times.
You know what, Shen Jin and Xiao Yang have the same idea and attach great importance to mental health.
The secret room is very small, with an area of less than 20 square meters, and contains some simple personal items.
There is a sofa, a dining table, a bed and a large mural.
Shen Jin walked carefully through the middle of the room without touching anything.
Come to the mural and gently take it off.
The moment the mural fell into his hand, it shrank into an exquisite model and was then sucked into his palm.
[Get: Draw a picture]
Shen Jin was not surprised and an iron pickaxe appeared out of thin air in his hand.
Start smashing the wall!
The wall was hit a few times by the pickaxe and turned into a delicate small model that fell to the ground.
After smashing it, Shen Jin stretched out his hand and sucked it.
[Obtain: Cobblestone x 12]
All the stones that were smashed down flowed into Shen Jin's inventory through his palms.
As usual, I looked at the inventory. There were 36 empty slots , and the bottom row was filled with various commonly used tools:
[Iron Sword], [Iron Shovel], [Iron Axe], [Iron Pickaxe], [Flint], [Compass], [Torch×64], [Box×64]
On it are [Compressed Biscuits × 64], [Beef Jerky × 64], [Mineral Water × 64], [Logs × 64], [Pebble × 12]
"Ah, I have to use 1/3 of the space to load things every time, so I bring back much less stuff... But for safety reasons, if I get stuck somewhere, at least I can start over!"
That’s right, that whole set of logs is the confidence to start over.
With the "Minecraft Assistance System", wood is the beginning of everything!
As long as there is wood, there is a tool bench and a full range of wooden tools.
If you are trapped in the wild, you can even make a matchbox to protect yourself from the wind and rain. By the way, you can also burn charcoal to keep warm.
It's already getting cold in the north in November...
A passage appeared in front of Shen Jin that could accommodate three people walking side by side.
The channel is inclined downward at 45 degrees.
“Pah!”
Shen Jin clapped his hands, and the sensor lights on both sides of the passage lit up.
After entering the passage, Shen Jin snapped his fingers, and like space magic, a small stone model popped out from Shen Jin's hand and grew in the wind.
When it fell to the ground, it had become a neat piece of stone measuring 1m x 1m.
And there was no damage at all!
It was as if the knocking and cracking of the pickaxe were all illusions.
This is Shen Jin’s “blockization ability”!
Everything can be cubed. Shen Jin can smash everything into small cubes as long as the tools are hard enough.
These things can be turned into small models almost intact and can be put into Shen Jin's backpack or special box.
Others just can’t get the little model back to its original shape.
The backpack is even more high-tech!
Shen Jin felt that this was a treasure left on Earth by some great immortal civilization. No matter how heavy it was, after receiving it in the backpack, he could not feel any weight!
Shen Jin tried to look at it from a scientific perspective, and in the end he could only say:
The end of science is theology.
Unexplainable space magic.
Fortunately, Shen Jin is a bit of a tough guy. He will let go of things he can't figure out, and he will figure them out eventually.
Since the sudden outbreak of the zombie virus, the world seems to have changed.
Although Shen Jin has been staying at home tinkering with some strange things in the past few months, he feels the changes in the world.
The zombie virus that broke out instantly in every corner of the world seemed like a carefully prepared disaster, concealing the actions of all human authorities.
According to normal logic, this is totally impossible.
But, it happened...
"Oh, why am I thinking about this? It will be time for dinner if I continue to waste time!"
Shen Jin rearranged the 12 [round stones], and there was no trace of them on the outside. Even if he knocked on it with his hands, he would feel that the wall was solid. After all, it was two meters thick...
After walking up a 10-meter-high staircase, a square platform appeared in front of Shen Jin.
There were two large long boxes on the platform.
Shen Jin put the painting into the box, took out a few things from it, and then prepared to set off.
There are four corridors extending from the platform as the center. Shen Jin chose the corridor with the word "East" written on it, took out a torch, lit it with a flint, and prepared to head west.
Shen Jin shouted in his mind, "Mini map!"
A square map appeared in the upper right corner of his field of vision, marking the longitude and latitude of his location and the places he had passed.
And the various marks he left behind.
"If it weren't for the system's built-in map, and I had no reference points underground, I would have gotten dizzy in a few seconds!"
The corridor is 3 meters wide and 3 meters high, with a supporting column in the middle at regular intervals.
This is Shen Jin digging a tunnel underground to prevent earth collapse.
Although he is engaged in weak current engineering, he still has some basic knowledge of civil engineering.
Along the way, we passed by rooms numbered "Yellow" No. 1, "Yellow" No. 2, "Yellow" No. 3, etc...
At the end of the corridor is still a mixture of stones and soil.
"If we dig a little further east, looking at the map... it seems we're almost at the company I used to work for!"
Start digging!
[Obtain: Soil x 6]
[Obtain: Soil mixture × 9]
…
Dig and suck all the way.
Whenever his body was full of [soil] or [soil mixture], Shen Jin would put down a box on the spot.
This box is specially used to store reduced models. It has 27 spaces inside, which is just enough to dump out the "garbage" on Shen Jin.
Every time he placed a box, Shen Jin would build a pillar with stones to support this small corridor.
"You don't have to go fast, but the road must be stable. Although there is no such thing as landslides in the game, this is reality..."
There is a space of more than ten meters underground, and it is hard to say what could go wrong, which could directly bury Shen Jin's shoddy project.
If Shen Jin died in a landslide while digging a tunnel...
Maybe this is the winner of the most unreliable system?
Sometimes Shen Jin wondered if there were other people who had obtained the system.
Is it possible for everyone to set up a chat group and share their experiences with each other?
Is there any hidden features or something?
Or some programming master can make a modifier for the system, so that you can get the dragon-slaying sword with one click, and double-click to turn on invincibility and other small functions...
After digging for more than two hours, Shen Jin looked at the longitude and latitude on the map and compared it with the Q City topographic map he brought with him.
That’s about it!
"I didn't expect to return to my old employer in the end of the world. I don't know if the location of the material warehouse has changed..."
In addition to expanding his underground territory, collecting supplies is also a major focus for Shen Jin this time.
Dig up!
Shen Jin did not dig straight upwards, as that would be inconvenient if there was an emergency and he needed to escape.
Shen Jin was neither anxious nor impatient. He found a good angle and dug diagonally upwards, leaving enough steps for two people to pass through.
10 meters, 9 meters, 8 meters...
1 meter.
The system's built-in map was no longer of any help to him and could only provide longitude, latitude and underground depth.
And couldn't tell him what was on the ground.
The system will only record the terrain he has walked on.
"There seems to be some movement up there..."
Shen Jin could vaguely hear some sounds through a large piece of soil, but he was not sure whether it was zombies.
Don't worry. Shen Jin calmly put on the cowhide armor, iron armor, foot gymnastics, leather gloves, and helmet. By the way, this time he specially changed to a helmet with less strong sealing.
Take out a clay model from the bag.
The moment when you dig up the top piece of soil with a shovel!
whoosh!
The soil in his hand filled the hole again.
This is an extremely fast operation. If there is a person standing on it, they probably won’t even notice that they have been suspended in the air for such a moment...
"There was no one there just now?"
After a moment's silence, he said, "I don't think... I didn't see it clearly!"
Do it again!
In order not to throw the model so quickly, Shen Jin used his left hand this time.
whoosh!
It was another smooth operation, as smooth as if it had been used thousands of times.
This time make sure there is nothing strange or smelly on it.
Shen Jin finally dug up the soil.
He poked his head out of the hole in the ground...with a helmet.
Shen Jin knew that he must look as funny as a groundhog now.
If someone passes by, I might even want to find a pneumatic hammer to hit it.
However! The safety of underground is beyond doubt!
It’s a bit tiring, but the advantage is that there is zero risk!
After enlarging the hole a little, Shen Jin crawled out with difficulty.
An ordinary courtyard, it can be seen that this is the first floor of an apartment building.
"There's a slight error...just adjust the direction and dig 20 meters to the southeast and you'll be there!"
Shen Jin roughly identified the location. After all, he had worked in this area before, so he could still tell the general location of the building. This community was just to the side of their company, not far away.
Just as I was about to drill back into the hole, I suddenly heard the crisp sound of metal falling to the ground in the house.
Someone!
No, it could also be zombies.
Shen Jin grabbed a handful of clay models in his hand, with the speed of his right hand and so much training.
It's not possible to make soldiers out of beans, but it's no problem to make a wall out of soil.
Moving closer, I saw a large floor-to-ceiling window connecting the first floor to the courtyard, with a thin veil hanging on the window.
Shen Jin only saw a hazy figure, which looked like a woman. At least a man wouldn’t have such a thin waist and such exaggerated curves...right?
Then Shen Jin heard a naughty and seductive voice coming from inside.
"It's so annoying. My husband's appetite has been getting bigger and bigger this month. He has eaten 30 of my batteries in the middle of the month..."
Shen Jin frowned and realized that things were not simple. "Sure enough, the world has changed so much. Humans have actually started eating batteries? Could it be the artificial people in the movies? Robots?"
"Moreover, this woman calls him husband, so I think they must have deep feelings for each other. Could it be that the machine has developed intelligence?"
"No, there is another possibility. This woman is crazy..."
No matter what the situation was, Shen Jin didn't want to go and say hello to her. This karma couldn't be involved...
Just as Shen Jin turned around to leave, the woman threw two AAA batteries into the yard.
Shen Jin was stunned for a moment, "F*ck!!!"
