Zhang Chen walked over curiously.
[A vending machine with a protection level comparable to an ATM. If you don't have cash, don't expect to get anything!]
Comparable to an ATM's protection level?
Is it that exaggerated?
Zhang Chen raised his fist, intending to test the sturdiness of the machine.
At this moment, a prompt appeared again:
[The vending machine not only has its own alarm system but is also connected to the nearby police station and broadcast system. If I were you, I wouldn't do that!]
Seeing this prompt, Zhang Chen retracted his raised fist.
After a fierce battle, it was not suitable to face another horde of zombies!
Besides, no one knew how many Lurker-like monsters were nearby.
It was better to be cautious!
Zhang Chen looked at the goods inside the vending machine.
There were drinks, self-heating rice, and even a thoughtful portion of purified water!
Boxed instant noodles and ready-to-eat cold noodles.
There were quite a few varieties!
And the prices weren't expensive!
Instant noodles were only 0.5 yuan.
Drinks were 0.1 yuan.
The most expensive self-heating rice with meat was only 1.5 yuan.
It seemed that the prices in this world were very low.
Zhang Chen now had over five thousand cash in hand.
This should be considered a considerable sum in this world!
He selected the self-heating rice!
Then Zhang Chen smoothed out a crumpled 5 yuan bill and inserted it!
Ding!
Soon, the self-heating rice with purified water dropped from the machine.
Zhang Chen took out the self-heating rice and checked the production date: June 15, 2012.
Shelf life: 20 years!
As expected!
The shelf life of all food items in this world was super long!
Ten to twenty years was the minimum!
Zhang Chen stored the self-heating rice in his storage space.
He then bought a bottle of orange-flavored carbonated drink, opened it directly, and gulped it down.
The taste was similar to Fanta on Earth!
Sweet and delicious!
Wang Wu~
Er Pang returned to a fluffy little ball again.
With sparkling eyes, he looked at the drink in Zhang Chen's hand and let out an impatient cry.
It seemed to say: Is it good? I want to try too!
Zhang Chen poured the remaining drink into a plastic bag and placed it in front of Er Pang.
The little guy trusted Zhang Chen completely and didn't even smell it.
He started licking directly!
After taking a lick, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he began to lick frantically!
Buy, buy, buy, buy it all!
Zhang Chen bought everything from the vending machine one by one.
It only cost a little over a hundred yuan.
He obtained a total of 20 bottles of carbonated drinks, 30 bottles of purified water, 10 boxes of Braised Beef Rice, 10 boxes of Fish-Flavored Pork Rice, 10 boxes of Vegetarian Rice, 20 boxes of instant noodles, 10 boxes of ready-to-eat mixed noodles, 20 boxes of self-heating mini hot pots...
It seemed that because these vending machines were all on the roadside,
There were zombies all around, so they were almost never looted.
Zhang Chen also went into a few surrounding shops.
All the refrigerators and vending machines had been cleared out.
They must have been consumed by the original inhabitants of this world!
After clearing the zombies on the street,
Zhang Chen brought Er Pang to the side of the gas station.
With a wave of his left hand,
A heavy-duty truck appeared out of thin air next to him.
Zhang Chen opened the fuel tank, inserted the fuel gun, and let it refuel automatically.
He went into the gas station's small convenience store himself.
There was nothing, only a few bottles of windshield washer fluid and engine oil scattered haphazardly on the shelves and floor.
Zhang Chen found four empty fuel barrels from behind the gas station convenience store and brought them over.
He filled four barrels of oil, two barrels of gasoline and two barrels of diesel.
Although there was still a lot of gasoline and diesel in the gas station,
The containers were limited, so he couldn't carry any more.
Zhang Chen marked the location of this gas station on the map with a circle.
Then he set off for his next target.
The department store!
Zhang Chen scanned all the shops along the way with his eyes.
There were no supply boxes, only scattered zombies inside.
But after the commotion just now, they hadn't rushed out.
This meant they were trapped and couldn't get out!
No need to worry at all!
Zhang Chen's gaze then fell on the brightly lit department store.
Immediately, a prompt popped up again:
[There are multiple Type II mutated zombies inside, be careful! There is a Level 2 supply box in the gym on the third floor!]
Multiple Type II mutated zombies?
Zhang Chen noticed that the prompt didn't say multiple Lurkers.
But multiple Type II mutated zombies!
This indicated that Type II mutated zombies were of many types, and Lurkers were just one of them!
And there was a Level 2 supply box inside?
For the sake of this Level 2 supply box, it was worth a try!
Zhang Chen took out his shield and Tang knife again and slowly walked in.
As soon as Er Pang reached the entrance of the department store, it smelled danger.
Its body instantly grew larger, and it followed Zhang Chen slowly inside.
The automatic glass doors of the department store were covered in bloody handprints.
There were also blood-stained drag marks on the ground.
However, there were no zombies in the lobby on the first floor!
It was very quiet!
Apart from the pleasant music playing repeatedly in the store,
The only sounds were Zhang Chen's light footsteps and the pattering sound of Er Pang's fat claws landing.
Where did the zombies go?
Zhang Chen felt a hint of doubt.
If dozens or even hundreds of zombies had rushed out the moment the door opened,
Zhang Chen would have felt more at ease.
This would have been the normal situation.
But now, there wasn't a single zombie.
This made Zhang Chen exceptionally vigilant.
Hey!
Zhang Chen suddenly shouted.
Then he fiercely hit the counter of the cosmetics counter on the first floor with his shield.
With a crack.
Because he didn't control his strength well,
The entire counter of the cosmetics section instantly caved in.
Glass shattered all over the floor.
With such a loud noise, zombies should have rushed out!
As a result... still no zombies!
Are there any zombies?
Zhang Chen shouted again!
Roar~ Roar~
Er Pang also roared in response.
Silence...
Perhaps it was because the music in the store was too loud and masked the sound of the zombies.
Even though Zhang Chen tried his best to expand his senses,
He still couldn't hear any unusual sounds.
There couldn't be no zombies here!
But where did all the zombies go?!
Zhang Chen walked around the first floor with Er Pang.
This was the cosmetics counter.
In the apocalypse, no one would be thinking about makeup anymore!
But skincare products and perfumes should still have a market demand and could be kept for trading!
Ding! Collection successful, congratulations on obtaining:
[Foundation] *75, [Skincare Products] *120, [Perfume] *40, [Lipsticks of Various Shades] *1255, [Makeup Remover] *112, [Cash] *5345, [Department Store Salesperson Uniform] *3...
After searching, Zhang Chen directly took the elevator to the second floor.
Hoo hoo...
Aow~
Uh...
As soon as he reached the second floor, he heard dense, spine-chilling zombie roars.
A dense mass of zombies was piled up at the entrance of a children's education center on the second floor.
Golden light shone from inside the room.
In the light, the zombies turned into dense black shadows, with countless hands waving on the glass.
The scene was terrifying!
