Zhang Chen flipped through again and found a large box of ice cream.
A whole box of 20 cream ice creams!
While this stuff couldn't be eaten as a meal, it did contain a high amount of sugar.
In critical times, it could barely be used as energy.
He stored them all in his storage space!
From the kitchen, he only selected soy sauce and put it into his storage space.
Then, all sorts of kitchen knives, fruit knives, and other blades were also collected into the space.
Before leaving.
Zhang Chen went to the bedroom and opened the wardrobe.
As expected, and just as he had predicted.
All the clothes in the wardrobe were collectible!
Collect!
[Ding! Congratulations, you have collected 120 pieces of clean fabric!]
When leaving room 102, Zhang Chen did not lock the door.
Instead, he left the door wide open and proceeded along the stairs to the fifth floor.
Along the way, all the room doors were tightly shut.
Occasionally, he could hear the low growls of zombies from some rooms.
As well as the sharp scraping sound of nails clawing at metal security doors.
There were only two zombies in the stairwell, which Zhang Chen easily dealt with.
He recovered [Energy Crystal Core] * 2, [Mutated Fertilizer] * 5, and [Cash 173 yuan].
He walked all the way to the fifth floor.
Zhang Chen took a deep breath.
The threats along the way had been neutralized.
Only this place remained.
He hoped this place wouldn't give him any surprises!
He didn't rush to insert the key into the lock.
Instead, he banged hard on the security door.
Dong dong dong!
A loud noise echoed through the stairwell.
Hoo hoo... uh...
Zhang Chen pressed his ear against the security door to listen carefully.
There was no sound from inside.
The low growls of zombies were coming from the adjacent room 501.
Safe!
Zhang Chen then took out his key and opened the door to room 502.
Upon entering, he slammed the door shut with a bang.
The soundproofing of the room was excellent.
The moment Zhang Chen closed the door.
The faint growls of zombies echoing in the hallway completely disappeared.
Everything was exceptionally quiet!
Zhang Chen stood at the door for a minute and then deliberately made a lot of noise.
Still, no zombies came out.
He searched room by room.
Including closets, under the bed, every corner, he searched meticulously.
Confirming there were no zombies in the room.
Only then did he let down his guard and collapse onto the sofa.
Survival in the apocalypse, caution is paramount!
After the few battles he had just gone through, Zhang Chen felt slightly fatigued!
This fatigue was caused by excessive mental tension, not physical exhaustion.
With his physical strength, killing a few zombies like that wouldn't tire him.
He rested for about ten minutes.
His spirits recovered significantly.
Zhang Chen then began to examine the room carefully.
This was a room for a family of three.
Above the bed in the master bedroom hung a large wedding photo.
Human beings on planet Shui Lan, like those on Earth, had similar cultural development.
In the second bedroom, there was an empty baby crib.
The entire room was kept very clean, with no bloodstains.
A faint fragrance even permeated the air.
For now, he would consider this his sanctuary.
Zhang Chen placed the unopened soy sauce in the kitchen.
He put the frozen ice cream and food into the freezer compartment of the refrigerator to save space in his storage.
Currently, his spatial ring contained [Spam] , [Pure Water] * 2, [Canned Beer] * 2, [Mutated Fertilizer] * 50, [Clean Fabric] * 125, [Explosion-proof Shield], [Tempered Helmet], [Fire Axe], [Kitchen Knife] * 2, and [Fruit Knife] * 1.
These already occupied 10 slots.
If he also counted the frozen meat and ice cream he had just collected.
The storage ring's space was exactly full.
This didn't even include the lighter, keys, cash, and a pile of other miscellaneous items.
Hiss...
With 12 slots of storage space, it seemed a bit insufficient!
The main reason was that there were too many collectible items in this world.
And the variety was extremely complex.
It would be great if he could upgrade his backpack space.
With this thought, Zhang Chen opened the chat channel.
Does anyone have water? I ran nearly a kilometer to avoid zombies, and my water is gone, I'm so thirsty!
Is anyone near Shenglin Hospital? I'm trapped in the doctor's office on the 5th floor of the inpatient department, can someone save me?! As long as you come, little sister is yours to command!
The speaker was a girl with a great figure.
I just killed a zombie and collected an [Energy Crystal Core], who wants it? I'll trade it for food or water, no freeloaders!
Damn, the one upstairs is amazing, you even dare to kill zombies!
I spent a lot of effort killing a zombie, but all I got was a pile of [Mutated Fertilizer]. Pfft, what bad luck!
I don't have any weapons, I can only run when I see zombies. I'm so pathetic!
Let's stick together, everyone unite and form a survivor camp, we can help each other!
Suddenly, someone named Zheng Hao called out.
Judging by his appearance, he was a refined-looking person, like a college student.
Everyone can privately message me their locations, because this is a regional chat channel, I suspect we are not too far apart!
Let's gather together little by little, share resources and abilities, unity is the only way to fight zombies!
One person's strength is limited, but the strength of a team is infinite. Everyone must unite!
Zhang Chen saw Zheng Hao's message and felt rather dismissive.
Zheng Hao's idea might have a good starting point.
But the outcome was destined to be not so good!
Because anyone with strength would not be willing to bring along those who were a burden.
Most people who lacked strength and struggled to survive themselves were the ones who wanted to group up.
So, it was predictable that even if they managed to gather together by chance.
It would be those who were just coasting and waiting to die, rather than warriors with exceptional combat power.
Moreover...
Zheng Hao's actions had another drawback.
It exposed the locations of other survivors.
At that time, who knew if a rescue organization would come knocking.
Or survivors looking to take advantage of the situation?!
In fact, even Zheng Hao himself might not be a good person.
One should not have the intention to harm others, but one must guard against others!
Zhang Chen directly ignored Zheng Hao's call.
Ding! Wang Jiran has listed [Drinking Water] 500.
Ding! Wang Jiran has listed [Well-packaged Ham Sausage] * 1!
Ding! Wang Jiran has listed [Well-packaged Ham Sausage] * 1!

Similarly, another twenty-plus messages were sent in a flood.
