It rained all night again, and the leaves outside the house were rustled by the strong wind. The sound of raindrops hitting the windows was like hypnotic white noise.
But Jiang Li, who was lying on the bed, was tossing and turning, having trouble falling asleep.
Whenever she closed her eyes, she could see the hideous faces of zombies and the miserable scene of purgatory on the streets during the day, and she couldn't help but sigh.
He looked at the ceiling blankly and murmured softly, "I wonder how Song Ying and the others are doing?"
Zombies have already appeared in Nanshui Town, and it is impossible for other cities not to be without them, not to mention that one day such a wounding incident was leaked.
As soon as she found her cell phone, she called Song Ying and others who were still in the dormitory, but only her roommate Tang Qian's cell phone could be connected. Tang Qian was taken home by her parents as soon as she was on vacation.
But Jiang Li's cell phone ran out of power and shut down after saying a few words. When she called back at night, the other end of the phone showed that it could not be reached.
The more he thought about it, the clearer he became. Jiang Li couldn't sleep, so he simply stopped sleeping and brought up the system interface to study it.
The silver interface is very clean, with only three small Q-version icons. One is the hotel, the other is the backpack just unlocked today, and the third is the system store.
After Jiang Li clicked on the hotel icon, a brand new silver panel jumped out, with the hotel's current values listed on it.
[Hotel name: Not changed yet]
[Current hotel defense value: 58]
[Shopkeeper: Jiang Li]
[Staff: Daifuku]
[Current hotel status: Not open yet]
Jiang Li looked at the Q-version villain's avatar that was somewhat similar to her own on the shop owner's line, and couldn't help but reach out and click. Unexpectedly, a new interface popped up the next second.
[Shopkeeper: Jiang Li]
【Age: 20】
[Current status: healthy]
[Redeemable points: 50]
[Strength: 6]
[Physical Attack: 10]
[Defense: 8]
【Stealth: 3】
There are many attribute names with question marks left on the silver panel, but they all show the words "not yet unlocked".
Jiang Li opened Dafu's interface as usual. The format and content were similar, but Dafu's health condition made her a little concerned.
Dafu is eight years old this year, which is equivalent to the age of a person between fifty and sixty. He has already entered old age, and the column of health status shows the word "medium".
Just when Jiang Li was dazed, the electronic sound of the system suddenly sounded again.
"Ding! You have a wearable hotel title, please check it out!"
The next second, a small round badge icon suddenly appeared on the initial system interface. It flashed and flashed as if waving to Jiang Li and said, "Hurry me! Hurry me!"
Jiang Li took advantage of the situation and clicked on the small icon. A silver-gray title lay quietly on the interface, with the word "New" in the upper left corner.
"Do you want to wear the new title [Lamp Bearer]?"
"[The guidance buff will take effect immediately after wearing it. Unknown travelers driven by darkness will follow the guidance of light and come here]"
Jiang Li looked at it and it felt a bit like a certain mobile game she had played before, so she casually clicked yes.
The next second, the title [Lamp Bearer] appeared on the initial interface, and the words continued to flash with golden light.
Then a circle suddenly appeared in the blank space on the far right side of the interface. It seemed to be a map?
The golden covered area in the center of the map exactly matches the shape of his own yard. Except for the wooden bridge where Jiang Li often goes in and out, everything around it is covered with a layer of translucent gray.
Jiang Li tried to move her position within the circular map, and the map under her fingertips also changed and moved accordingly.
If she guessed correctly, the golden area in the center of the map is the boundary of the yard bound to the system.
There are four small green dots within the boundary, which should be the four of them. However, the same small dots cannot be seen in the area covered by gray.
Jiang Li murmured thoughtfully, "If the territory becomes larger, can we see it?"
"Ding! The territory will expand with the upgrade of the hotel, and the disk map will update the situation inside and outside the hotel in real time, providing the host with safer and more reliable real-time information!"
"If you want to get more detailed and high-quality special functions, you need to spend points to upgrade!" the electronic voice introduced word by word.
Jiang Li thought for a while and asked tentatively, "What can my current points be redeemed for?"
"Ding! Retrieving for you..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the mall interface jumped out. The word mall was written in the upper left corner. Jiang Li looked at it carefully. The mall was divided into five areas: food, medicine, daily necessities, machinery and electrical appliances, and weapons and props.
Basically, they are some basic and common supplies before the end of the world, such as water, bread, cold medicine, etc.
The variety is very complete, and it is not inferior to department stores at all, but the points under the product boxes are not so beautiful.
A piece of bread costs 5 points! ? A box of antipyretics costs 20 points!
While watching the whole journey, Jiang Li thought of her meager 50 points, and felt that she was a pauper, a double blow from reality and illusion.
This kind of finished food is more expensive, but food that needs to be processed by yourself is much cheaper. For example, ten pounds of wheat flour only costs 2 points! ? This is much more cost-effective than finished food!
This magical setting once made Jiang Li wonder whether the system had marked the wrong price?
After Jiang Li looked through the system mall again and again, she went through what she should do tomorrow in her mind.
Even though she brought back a lot of supplies today, it was still a drop in the bucket for Jiang Li. These things wouldn't last long. Even if points could be used to redeem supplies in the system mall, the price was indeed not very good.
Although today's zombies look scary, they actually don't move very fast and have little sense of autonomy.
And most of the current survivors dare not go out to stock up on supplies because they are afraid of zombies eating people, but for Jiang Li, this period of time is undoubtedly the best time to go out and collect supplies!
So I must seize the time, at least save enough supplies before other survivors react. After all, you have to have some capital to open a hotel, right?
The messy things were like a mess that couldn't be sorted out. Thinking about it made Jiang Li's brain hurt. After sorting out her thoughts, it was almost midnight.
The rain outside the window not only did not stop, but got heavier and heavier, and there was even a rumble of thunder.
A faint coldness crept down the gap between the window frames, forcing Jiang Li to tuck herself into the bed, and her shoulders couldn't help but tremble a few times.
As sleepiness came over him, Jiang Li wrapped herself in the quilt and whispered softly, "Why is it suddenly a little cold..."
