It wasn’t that Wang Xing didn’t know what infection meant, but he realized the problem after a brief period of confusion.
He lifted the can in his hand to see the extent of the infection.
"Could it be that drinking this thing increases the degree of infection?" Wang Xing thought, and took another sip, but because he drank half of the first sip, this small sip could not be seen at this time.
He simply drank the remaining half of the can of drink.
Suddenly the red color in the humanoid picture in front of him rose a little from the soles of his feet, and the progress bar changed to 1.8%.
Throwing away the drink cans, Wang Xing felt depressed as he listened to the crashing sound echoing in the empty department store.
Sure enough, there was a reason why passersby didn't drink. Although I didn't know what the infection was, it was definitely not a good thing.
The cans collided all the way, passed through the darkness, rolled down to the small metal door in the corner, and slowly stopped.
Wang Xing also noticed that the dark place was not a wall, but a room inside.
Someone inside the door seemed to hear the sound and slammed the door.
Bang!
The dull voice startled Wang Xing. He thought it was an empty city, but he didn't expect to hear sounds. No one spoke, there were only collisions, and Wang Xing was wary.
If there had been a disaster like massacre in the city before, I'm afraid the living people hidden inside were not good people.
Wang Xing is thinking. Was it an accidental collision, or was it a deliberate attempt to attract him?
"In the modern world, there should be things like guns."
After much hesitation, Wang Xing decided to go take a look. He is in the best physical condition now. If he can deal with enemies with guns at this time and obtain guns, it will be very helpful for his subsequent survival.
Wang Xing took off the backpack on his back and stared at the small door that made continuous banging sounds.
He removed the thin metal plates used to store goods on the shelves, stacked a few on top of each other, stuffed them into a large backpack and tied them with ropes to create a simple shield.
Having prepared these, he entered the darkness with a simple shield hanging on his arm and approached the small door that was being hit.
Opening his fists and flexing his fingers, Wang Xing turned sideways and pushed open the door with his elbows. A collision came from behind the door panel, and Wang Xing kicked it rudely.
Boom!
The person behind him was knocked down. Wang Xing glanced quickly through the crack in the door and did not see the gunman raising his gun. But he did not relax his vigilance. He hung a simple shield on one arm in front of him and used fake movements to dazzle people.
Bang!
Something hit me.
Wang Xing also tested it during his practice. His current strength is so solid that it would take at least two strong young men to compete with him. Not only was it difficult to hang a metal plate weighing more than ten kilograms on one arm, but after he was hit, he immediately showed his strength and threw his hand back violently.
Bang!
This time Wang Xing knocked over the attacker and formally broke through the door. He glanced around the room and saw no one holding a firearm. Only the person who was hit looked up and fell to the ground.
The painful and vicious roar made Wang Xing's back hair tremble.
Wang Xing's arm holding the shield suddenly raised, and the rope between the shield and his arm straightened.
Boom!
Wang Xing's arm fell, and the metal shield fell vertically. The dull clicking sound seemed to break the collarbone of the fallen person.
Then Wang Xing quickly raised his arm and dropped it, hitting the vertical metal plate.
Gacha~
Wang Xing's vision gradually adapted to the darkness in the room, and he happened to see the corpse covered in rotting flesh and white eyes. The chest and neck were partially crushed, and the body was twitching and slowly losing mobility.
Wang Xing's eyes widened and he stared at the body on the ground.
The corpse was in a state as if it had been dead for many days. But just now there was force hitting the door and the shield he made.
At this moment, Wang Xing finally realized that he had vaguely heard that he had entered a world of living corpses.
"So you're talking about a living corpse?" Wang Xing confirmed that the corpse would not move again, put away his shield, and quickly checked the room.
This seems to be the manager's office of a department store. There are some clothing boxes and food items stacked on the small shelves nearby.
After learning that there were moving corpses, Wang Xing also made simple guesses about the world.
There was no one on the street, maybe the survivors had all scavenged and left. But I didn't touch the living corpses here, probably because I thought they were dangerous.
"In this case, the food is all mine."
Wang Xing was not in a hurry to check the loot and walked around a few times. Opposite the manager's office is a small warehouse, and the key is in the manager's office. If there is no key, only Li Fei's pushing palm can try to open the heavy iron door of the warehouse.
Checking the warehouse, it was filled with a large number of boxes containing various snacks.
In an instant, Wang Xing went from drinking only questionable drinks to now having a warehouse full of reserves. Although they are all snacks.
Wang Xing picked some snacks and a bottle of water and left the warehouse with the key.
There is a lot of food in the warehouse, for an ordinary person. If you don't care about the shelf life, save a little and it will probably last you half a year. But if it were him, a big eater who maintains his strength...
After eating a few packs of biscuits and ham sausage, I tore open a pack of jelly beans and poured them into my mouth, then ate a plate of chocolate and drank a bottle of mineral water.
The three people ate enough to make Wang Xing feel as if they were appetizing.
Although the feeling of fullness is not enough, the focus still needs to be to see whether it helps maintain strength during practice.
Wang Xing tried to follow the posture of Pushing Mountain Palm. When he took the first posture, a faint heat appeared on the inside of his twisted and folded arms.
"Hey, so fast!"
Even after taking the ointment, Wang Xing needed to perform one or two sets of actions before his body gradually began to respond.
The reaction came very quickly this time. Wang Xing was a little surprised, but he had unspeakable doubts in his heart.
Although the martial artist Li Fei was aloof, he told him some simple essentials.
Why eat meat. Because the meat contains the special essence that Tongli warriors need most.
The more ferocious the flesh and blood of the beast, the stronger the cultivation effect. Li Fei also said that those expensive black ointments use a large number of centuries-old medicinal materials as ingredients, and beasts such as tigers and bears are added in whole pieces.
But the most important material among them can only be the flesh and blood of alien beasts.
Li Fei couldn't tell how powerful the alien beasts were, because although those things were ferocious, they could only be found in the sparsely populated barren mountains and wild ridges on the border of the dynasty when they were killed by warriors as powerful as gods.
The effect of such cherished exotic animal meat can actually be achieved by eating some snacks?
Wang Xing thought excitedly. But as he finished a set of movements, he found that the heat in his body was completely consumed.
"what's the situation?"
Wang Xing made two more moves in confusion. Not to mention the heat in the body, even the feeling of fullness and digestion brought about by eating meat are not there.
He has specifically tested that the more essence of meat eaten in one meal, the longer it takes to practice and absorb it.
Eat three kilograms of ordinary poultry meat in one meal. After five sets of movements, four groups warm up the body. The remaining group slowly feels the heat and absorbs the energy. The remaining movements are to accelerate the elimination of impurities.
Eat two kilograms of bear meat hunted in the mountains in one meal. After five sets of movements, three sets of movements can warm up the body, start to feel the heat, and absorb and strengthen a trace of qi and blood.
After taking the ointment, a piece the size of a fingernail is used for two sets of movements to warm up, and the rest of the dozen or so sets can be used to experience the heat of the body.
When experiencing heat, the more in tune with the body you are cultivating, the faster it will absorb the energy in the heat and condense the heat threads, and the better the effect.
Wang Xing has long been accustomed to using heat to warm up a trace of heat in his body after eating, but after eating so much at this time, the process and results left him confused.
A set of exercises starts to heat up immediately, but it disappears after the heat is over. What's going on?
Wang Xing simply brought out a bunch of food. Crispy noodles, jelly, chocolate, vegetarian spicy strips, chicken feet with pickled peppers... there are a lot of different types of snacks that you may not recognize.
Wang Xing insisted on eating snacks until he was full, and then started practicing.
The results are worse.
After more than a dozen sets of movements, except for the contents in the stomach being digested and excreted quickly, there was not even a trace of heat.
The effect is not as good as poultry meat.
With a bad premonition in his heart, Wang Xing continued to eat after removing the debris.
This time I changed the snacks I had for the first time, biscuits, ham, sausages, chocolates, etc., increased the amount I ate, and didn’t stop eating until my stomach started to feel bloated.
The result of practice is even worse.
"No feeling of heat at all."
Wang Xing practiced for another hour, looking ugly.
After eating all kinds of food, in addition to filling my stomach, let alone accelerating my cultivation, my heat no longer started to appear.
He couldn't stand the feeling, so he endured his impatience and continued eating patiently.
Until it gets dark.
Ten hours later, Wang Xing had eaten five meals in total, and he never felt feverish again.
Wang Xing felt sore all over and felt that his internal organs were beginning to become weak.
This is the loss that will inevitably occur if you continue to practice without the energy from meat to replenish your body. Because of his forced cultivation, the heat threads that could erupt in his body could not be replenished and became a little shorter.
He has not cultivated many explosive threads, but a single move that can explode the entire body is good. Unlike Li Fei, who has a deep foundation and can maintain his body expansion for several minutes, he can also perform many moves with an explosion.
Unable to find food that could maintain his condition, Wang Xing looked at the moon in the sky, feeling a little tormented in his heart.
Could it be that the power that I finally obtained just disappeared like this?
Quietness brings thinking.
Wang Xing suddenly thought that besides food, there was another place that needed his attention. Since there is something infectious in the drink, there must be something in the food too, but in smaller quantities.
And since he had eaten so much just now, the level of infection must have increased again.
Wang Xing opened the interface to see the degree of infection.
The number that can be displayed in the interface is zero!
"really!"
Wang Xing's suspicion was verified.
"Drinks! Those drinks that bring infection levels are the key to the emergence of heat!"
Although it was a question, Wang Xing felt that it was like this, and it had to be like this, otherwise he would be finished.
Wang Xing ran to the shelf without hesitation, opened the drink can and took a sip. After the rich sweetness fell into his stomach, Wang Xing stared at the infection level that was rapidly increasing.
The first tank was raised to one point eight, the second tank was raised to three point two, the third tank was raised to four point one, and the fifth tank was raised to five point three.
Throwing away the empty can in his hand, Wang Xing struck up a pose again. With the first movement, his arms and back twisted in strange postures, and the scalding heat finally appeared!
The thermal threads, which had weakened due to lack of energy replenishment, were recovering quickly.
As the first set of Wang Xing's movements ends, and the second and third sets of movements are completed, Wang Xing remains nourished by heat throughout the entire process.
With the nourishment, the threads in his body stabilized and even grew a little, feeling like they had increased from a hair of about two centimeters to a length of two and a half centimeters.
Wang Xing slowly put away his movements as the heat gradually subsided. Looking at the drinks that no one drank, there was only joy in his heart.
"These are all mine!"
