In the initial battle against zombies, the role of the gas mask was to prevent the possible spread of viruses and corpse odor. Although it no longer has the anti-virus function, it can still prevent odor and provide a little protection. Even though it's a bit strange for someone like Qiu Yu to wear it in a safe building, it's not enough to make people look like a monster.
In the games of Apocalypse and City of Destiny, not many people come into close contact with Qiu Yu, so wearing a gas mask means you don’t have to worry about being recognized.
When he went down to the forty-first floor, Qiu Yu didn't choose. He walked directly to the door closest to him and knocked.
"What's the matter?" The person who opened the door was a middle-aged man with messy hair. He seemed to be taking a nap, but Qiu Yu's weird outfit made him swallow the anger he was about to burst out of when he woke up.
"The previous administrator was so angry that he ran away. I'm the new one. The commander asked me to investigate what your needs are." Qiu Yu said angrily.
"Demand? As I said last time, breakfast can be whatever you want, but lunch and dinner must..."
Qiu Yu interrupted, "Don't waste everyone's time on such trivial matters. As you know, the zombies are getting more and more powerful. This may be the last investigation for a long time. We will try to meet any request. If If you are sure that your wish is something for lunch and dinner, I will report it truthfully."
"No, wait, you said you would meet any of my requests?"
"It's about trying to be satisfied. So it has to be within our capabilities."
The man thought about it seriously, then looked Qiu Yu up and down, "If this request is a little inappropriate..."
"It doesn't matter, we don't care if it's suitable or not, we just care if it can be done."
The man paused for a long time before making up his mind and said, "I have a few, but the most important thing is my little Baby. If possible, I hope you can rescue Baby."
Qiu Yu was secretly happy, but on the surface he still said businesslikely, "Where is he? How long have you been separated? Are you sure he is still alive? If we are not sure, we can't take risks for a dead person or zombie."
"Definitely still alive." After the man got a little excited, he thought that he was asking Qiu Yu to do something, and immediately controlled his emotions, "Baby is at my house, No. 124, Rongshu 7th Street. We separated eight days ago. Yes, I put Baby in the life-sustaining cabin at that time, and then set the life-sustaining time for one month, so there is a high chance that he is still safe now."
Even the life-sustaining warehouse has come out. There is no doubt that that is not something that can be achieved with current technological means. The 7th Banyan Street is only about five kilometers away from here.
"Okay, since it's a rescue mission, I'll go take a look now."
"Sorry..." the man said coyly, "What I mean by inappropriateness is...Baby is a pet dog, but to me he is not important at all. Not inferior to others.”
Qiu Yu tried his best to control his almost collapsed expression and said calmly, "Whether it's a human or a dog, as long as it's within my ability, I will do my best."
"Great, just wait, I'll get the key for you."
Five minutes later, the commander-in-chief of Earth's civilization and the actual ruler of the Tower of Civilization began the mission of rescuing the dog.
When Qiuyu left the N75 building alone under the gaze of several pairs of surprised eyes, he could still hear conversations of envy and admiration.
"Wow, that must be a hero from another land."
"You know that?"
"Idiot, who else but them would dare to run out alone."
"Maybe to collect fresh meat for us. If I were that strong, I could..."
"Shut up, you idiot, are you just looking for meat for you when you go out?"
"Then what did you say you were doing?"
"Yes... that's confidential, do you understand? We are under military management now, so don't ask if you shouldn't ask."
Qiu Yu sped up and left.
Because of his experience in unlocking labs, Qiu Yu originally thought that this task should be easy. However, not long after leaving the N75 building, he started slashing all the way, and even entered escape mode twice because of holding on. If it weren't for the existence of sensory spread, even with Qiu Yu's current combat power, the survival rate of these two escapes would probably be only 70% at best.
And as the destination got closer and closer, the pressure Qiu Yu felt did not diminish at all. Some running zombies would run like crazy on the streets from time to time, making it difficult for the spread of perception to deal with these uninvited guests who rushed into the area at high speed.
When Qiu Yu worked hard to reach the opposite side of No. 124, Rongshu Seventh Street, the joy of victory in his heart was more real than any other moment in this game, but the disappointment was also the same.
This house is a civilian villa built on the street. The half-wooden, half-cement exterior doesn't look like a futuristic building at all. Although Qiu Yu has long considered that it is unrealistic to unlock a future building by taking on the task of finding a dog. But just as many people know that it is unrealistic to buy a lottery ticket and expect to win a multimillion-dollar jackpot, but they still have expectations. Qiu Yu occasionally has some small expectations.
After confirming that there were no zombies running around or looking here, Qiu Yu rushed over and opened the door as fast as he could, and then spent three full seconds in a daze at the door.
The appearance of the house is indeed an ordinary building, but what is connected behind the door is a future space. There is no light source, but the bright room is filled with simple yet dazzling objects. Wherever the eyes scan, various furniture and home appliances will project unique information onto the viewer's retina. Most of them are running status and parameter settings. Appliances with more functions, such as refrigerators, will also display the internal storage status, remaining space, food types, recipe combinations, etc.
Although this information is projected onto the retina, eye and finger movements can be detected and responded to. After Qiuyu used the spread of perception to understand the operation method, he reached out and clicked a few times in the void, closed these dazzling things, and walked towards the last information panel left by the filter.
——Pet survival warehouse. Forced sleep, automatic cleaning, automatic feeding, air purification. It is currently set to the fourth level sleep state. The time that has passed is eight days, ten hours and twenty-three minutes, and the remaining time is twenty-one days, thirteen hours and thirty-seven minutes.
The survival chamber is completely transparent in the shape of an eggshell, and a white puppy is sleeping on a soft cushion in the center of the eggshell. Qiu Yu was not in a hurry to wake up the puppy. Although this life-saving barn is a little bigger, it is definitely a better choice than carrying a puppy that may bark on the road.
After walking around the room again, Qiu Yu began to try to take out the things here. The results are the same as those of the Biological Hazard Assessment Laboratory. Except for the life-saving barn containing the puppy, anything beyond the technology outside the house cannot be taken out.
Even the box containing the food was a little advanced because of the advanced technology. Qiu Yu took the food out, but the box was left inside the door.
What can be taken away cannot be wasted. After packing up the ordinary food, Qiu Yu enjoyed another meal of future instant food that was both tasty and delicious, then he carried the food storage, carefully closed the door and left.
Because I knew the terrain and zombie movements well when I came here, the way back was a little easier. At least Qiu Yu and Weishengcang returned to the N75 building intact.
After watching Qiu Yu walk to the elevator with awe-inspiring eyes, the people guarding the door began to discuss again.
"It's amazing. I walked for several hours and came back intact."
"Not only that, haven't you seen that there is also an extra bag of things and a dog?"
"But why bring a dog back? If it's for food, just kill it. There's no need to put it in a life-support barn, right?"
"I just know how to eat it. In your eyes, is it just a pile of dog meat?"
“What else can we do if we don’t kill and eat?”
"Okay... that's confidential, do you understand? We are under military management now, so don't ask if you shouldn't ask."
Qiu Yu walked into the elevator. Sometimes it is also useful to listen to the dialogue of "NPC", at least to know that in their perception, this life-saving cabin is unlocked.
"Oh, my little baby, I knew you were really alive, I just knew it."
The man skillfully released the puppy from its sleep state, and held the puppy while dancing for a long time without even thinking of thanking Qiu Yu as his benefactor. Finally, Qiu Yu couldn't bear it anymore and took the initiative to hint to the other party whether he should give himself some mission rewards.
"Oh, yes, that's right, but I really don't have anything to repay you with right now. How about this? As long as you need the things in my house, you can take them as you like." I probably feel that this is close to empty talk. There was something wrong with the repayment, and the man stared down at the ground again, struggling with the question of whether to share some of the food. But when she made up her mind and looked up, she found that Qiu Yu had disappeared.
When the man said that he could take whatever he wanted at home, Qiu Yu sensed similar fluctuations from him as when Ivan unlocked the laboratory. This is what truly means unlocking rewards.
"Why did that hero go out again?"
"It is said that zombies will become more and more powerful. I probably want to do more while I can still deal with them now."
"If you weren't looking for meat, what else would happen?"
"I've said it several times, it's confidential, understand? We are under military management now..."
These natives simply use language to express curiosity. The players of the game act.
Seeing Qiu Yu constantly coming in and out, the players on the second floor had already paid attention to him and felt that he should be an expert. However, a second-level master came back last time. In order to boost morale and suppress the arrogance of that master, Su Hao beat him up in front of all the players. Even if the other masters didn't need to be beaten, they were basically introduced.
It is illogical for non-experts to dare to walk alone in a zombie-infested city for several hours... no matter how they think about it. Therefore, after Qiu Yu went out this time, he was followed by several players who were somewhat confident in their abilities.
Qiu Yu is just trying to protect himself now. If he brings a few more people with him, let alone helping them, he will even be in danger. But if you don't help, you can't watch them die.
Faced with the dilemma, Qiu Yu had no choice but to circle around the building and run towards them with a group of zombies.
Amidst the shouts and curses, several players hid back in the building in dejection. When they took advantage of the terrain to kill the zombies and tried to repair Qiu Yu, they suddenly discovered that the culprit who attracted the zombies had disappeared under dozens of eyes.
