The next day, the fiery red sun slowly rose.
Shen Xingluo and Cheng Xi had breakfast and went to the base office building with their IDs and other documents to apply for the residence certificate for the original residents.
In the next few days, the two of them either went out for a stroll or slowly put goods on the shelves of the Interstellar Supermarket.
An automatic checkout and temporary rest area are set up on the first floor, with rice, noodles, grains and oils occupying multiple shelves; beds, quilts, clothing and toiletries are on the second floor; and the third floor is temporarily empty.
During the day, the two appeared in the base, and at night they would practice their powers in the space.
Everything in the space has become a training object for the two of them. Moving and organizing things with their thoughts can improve their mental strength. Plants such as medicinal materials and fruits can be stimulated by the wood element.
As for the improvement of the gold element, the two chose to compete.
In just a few days, Cheng Xi's fighting skills not only improved greatly, but he also obtained two martial arts secret books from the system.
On the tenth day after arriving at the base, the two went out and went straight to the office building to find Xu Qingzhou.
The captain was surprised when he saw the two men.
"Mr. Shen, Miss Cheng, what can you do?"
They hadn't seen each other for a long time since they said goodbye ten days ago. Xu Qingzhou really didn't expect to be called to his door.
Shen Xingluo said, "I really have something to ask Captain Xu for help."
"Mr. Shen, please speak."
"The two of us were originally residents of the Xingyao City Community. We plan to open a supermarket when we return, and we asked Captain Xu to spread the word."
"."
Xu Qingzhou's expression was hard to describe.
The sharp eyes under those sword-shaped eyebrows showed unprecedented shock.
Shen Xingluo sat across from him, waiting quietly without saying anything, while Cheng Xi thought that she was not as capable of scheming as him and did not want to get involved in the negotiations at all.
The office fell into an eerie silence.
After a moment, Xu Qingzhou's erratic voice came again.
"Mr. Shen, are you sure you want to open a supermarket?"
"Sure."
"What to sell?"
“Mainly supplies such as rice and noodles.”
"Let me remind you that this is the end of the world. All supplies are in short supply. We don't know how long this disaster will last."
"I see."
Shen Xingluo knew what he was about to say, "Captain Xu, our supplies are very rich."
"Do you have space powers?"
Xu Qingzhou remembered that when they entered the base yesterday, the two of them only carried a travel backpack. The only explanation could only be space powers.
But as far as he knows, the current space superpowers can only have a maximum of 50 square meters.
Shen Xingluo did not refute this statement, "In addition to food and other supplies, the supermarket also has some special items that it wants to sell. I think Captain Xu will be interested in this."
"What is it?"
Xu Qingzhou remembered that the other party had informed him about the crystal core, and he became interested after hearing this.
Of course, the vigilance is also full at the same time.
Shen Xingluo pushed a pure black bracelet in front of him.
"The defense bracelet can resist current zombie attacks within 30 days after being worn."
"!!!"
Xu Qingzhou raised his head suddenly, his sharp eyes showing shock again.
Although he was mentally prepared, his pupils were still shocked by this statement.
"Mr. Shen, are you sure this thing can resist zombies?"
"It is valid for 30 days after being worn."
Shen Xingluo changed his voice and said, "Captain Xu should know that zombies and superpowers can advance, right?"
"yes."
"This defensive bracelet can resist the attacks of zombies below level 3. Currently, it can be used by both superpowers and ordinary people. Captain Xu can try its use."
Level three
At present, the abilities of superpowers are all level one, but he actually has the concept of level three?
Xu Qingzhou was deeply shocked but also believed most of it. After all, Shen Xingluo felt too mysterious and powerful to him, and he was definitely not a liar.
"This matter is so important, I want to try and give you an answer."
"Wait."
Shen Xingluo stood up and said, "The supermarket will open tomorrow. Captain Xu can go shopping if you need anything."
As for advertising, I’m not that anxious.
After all, the Interstellar Supermarket hasn’t opened its doors to welcome customers yet.
The two came out of the office building and walked leisurely towards their homes, meeting many survivors on the way.
"It's been a month since the end of the world, and the changes have been huge."
The base was being constructed day and night, with many residential buildings and shantytowns appearing. Even the office buildings had completely changed their appearance.
The biggest change is in the survivors.
Within a month, everyone who could get out of the city ran away, and those who couldn't get out most likely turned into zombies.
Even if he was lucky enough to survive, his food would not be very good due to the shortage of supplies. At a glance, there was not a fat person on the street, but all of them were sallow, thin, and malnourished.
Some people even had their eyes dazed, dangling like empty shells.
The two stepped up their pace, and it was inevitable that the supermarket would open.
***
Early the next morning, the LED lights of the Star Supermarket came on.
For the sake of celebration, Cheng Xi specially took out a long string of red firecrackers, hung them at the door and made them crackle.
This place belongs to a group of villas in the community, and not many people usually come here, so not many people found that the supermarket was stocking up during this period.
Now when the firecrackers go off, all the survivors living nearby hear it.
"What's wrong? Did the alarm go off?"
"Are there zombies? Are zombies coming in?"
"What zombies are firecrackers? I actually heard the sound of firecrackers!"
Zhou Chen followed the sound of firecrackers and quickly came over, staring at the two large buildings in front of him, stunned.
"What's going on? It wasn't like this before!"
"Star Supermarket, it's actually a supermarket. Damn it, why are there so many things on the shelves!"
The young man was stunned, thinking that he was hallucinating, and hurriedly rubbed his eyes with both hands.
However, the scene in front of him remained unchanged.
There are large floor-to-ceiling windows, and the shelves inside are arranged neatly and regularly. The instant noodles and self-heating rice on them are densely packed, which is almost the same as before the apocalypse.
"Instant noodles, they are actually instant noodles!"
Woohoo-he hasn't eaten instant noodles for half a month!
Although he is a superpower and can follow his teammates on daily missions to earn base points, he is better than most people if he can eat enough.
Instant noodles? That's high-end stuff!
He swallowed and cautiously stood at the door of the supermarket and looked inside.
Cheng Xi saw him when she looked up, "Do you want to buy something? What are you doing standing there? Come in!"
"You, are you really a supermarket?"
"Of course, everything is there. Do you think there are only packaging bags?"
Cheng Xi flipped a page and continued reading, "It's okay to come in and look around without buying, but you can't play with instant noodles."
"."
Zhou Chen suddenly felt familiar when he heard the familiar Internet memes and walked in.
“Miss, do you use points to buy things here?”
"No, gold, silver and crystal nuclei are all fine."
Ten days ago, the four major bases announced the existence of the crystal core. It is no longer a secret.
However, how the crystal core improves superpowers is still being studied.
