The two of them chatted one after another.
Time slowly came to night.
What should have been a bustling city with bright lights, colorful lights, and busy traffic was now completely dark.
The outline of the city was looming in the moonlight, like a giant beast lying in the darkness, about to die, exuding a depressing and cold aura.
"What are your plans next?" Tang Ya spoke again, with a hint of weakness in her voice.
"Stay alive!" Lin Mo said.
Today is the first day of the end.
The reason why he was able to stay here safely was because he made a lot of preparations in advance and chose a good base.
But as time goes by, the situation will get worse and worse.
Especially when zombies are extremely hungry, they will wander around in various places in the city in search of food.
By then, there will be no pure land in the city.
Any faint sound, smell, light... may attract hordes of zombies.
In this case, even if he has a system, it will not be easy to survive.
"Stay alive..." Tang Ya glanced at Lin Mo.
This was a simple thing in the past, but now it sounds so precious and rare.
"I'm going upstairs to rest. If you come up, I will treat you as an enemy." Lin Mo glanced at Tang Ya, got up and went upstairs.
There are three observation floors in the Financial Building, and they are currently on the first floor, the 106th floor.
Arrived at the 107th floor.
He took out a box of thumbtacks and scattered them evenly on the stairs.
Then he took out several mouse traps and distributed them around the stairs.
Then he walked to the corner farthest from the stairs, took out the sleeping bag from the system space, and lay down in it.
Just as he closed his eyes, he opened them suddenly, then opened the system store and started searching for infrared alarm devices.
[Intelligent infrared detector (prop type)], priced at 500 points.
[360-degree infrared detection device with no blind spots (props)], priced at 1,000 points.
[Civilian straight-line infrared detector (living supplies)], priced at 1 point/10 units.
[Civil Grid Infrared Detector (Living Materials Category)], priced at 1 point/2 units.
The prices of props and daily necessities are very different.
Of course, the same is true functionally.
Prop-type detectors can be directly connected to the system. If there is a problem, the system will directly remind you in your mind, and the functions are more comprehensive and intelligent.
As for daily supplies, they are just ordinary detectors.
Lin Mo thought about it for a moment and spent 1 point to buy two [grid-shaped infrared detectors].
After the instrument is started, a square infrared grid of 10 meters * 10 meters will be formed. If anything touches the grid lines, it will trigger an alarm from the machine.
He turned on two of them at the same time, forming a 10-meter by 20-meter rectangular grid between him and the staircase.
In this way, once anything comes close, he has 20 meters to react, which is enough for him.
After arranging all this, he closed his eyes with peace of mind.
Nothing happened all night.
Lin Mo woke up at dawn the next day.
Because of the infrared device, he slept soundly that night.
He stood up and put away his sleeping bag, put away the infrared device, carefully picked up the mousetraps and thumbtacks and put them away, and then he went downstairs.
As soon as he arrived at the 106th floor, Tang Ya, who was sleeping on a pillar, suddenly turned over and grabbed the baseball bat next to him.
Seeing that it was Lin Mo, Tang Ya slowly relaxed her guard, and then stretched a little tiredly: "Did you get up so early?"
It was obvious that she didn't sleep well last night.
"I'm going out for a while, you can rest for a while." Lin Mo said and walked towards the exit.
Tang Ya was startled: "It's so dangerous outside, why are you going out?"
At this stage, staying here is the wisest choice.
"Something's wrong." Lin Mo opened the chain lock on the door, hesitated, and threw the key to Tang Ya: "Take the key, I don't have any spare ones."
After saying that, he opened the door and went downstairs.
"Are you specifically telling me that I don't have a spare key to let me rest peacefully? I didn't expect that this handsome guy is quite considerate."
Tang Ya looked at the door that closed automatically, with a smile on her lips. She locked the door and leaned against the pillar again and fell asleep.
Not only was Lin Mo on guard against her last night, she was also on guard against Lin Mo, and she really didn't sleep well.
...........
Lin Mo's purpose for leaving the sightseeing floor was simple - to kill zombies.
His original plan was to survive for three days, get 2,000 [survive] points to improve his strength, and then go out.
But Tang Ya's appearance gave him a sense of urgency.
With Tang Ya's strength, if he had the intention to kill him, he would probably have died yesterday.
And he couldn't guarantee that everyone he met was as harmless as Tang Ya.
Therefore, he must become stronger as soon as possible.
Also, [Did you kill zombies today? 】This task requires him to kill at least one zombie every day, otherwise points will be deducted.
Arrived at the 105th floor.
He put away the 60cm machete and replaced it with a mace.
This floor was originally a sky restaurant. All the tables and chairs are placed by the windows. You can see the city scenery when you are dining.
Of course, the per capita consumption here is also terrifyingly high. Lin Mo has never been here before.
Walking into the restaurant, it was very quiet.
Most of the tables and chairs were still in good order and had not been damaged too much.
If nothing else, the two zombies he killed yesterday should be the staff of this restaurant.
The restaurant hadn't opened yet, so there weren't many staff.
However, Lin Mo did not relax his vigilance. With a mace in hand, he checked the kitchen, bathroom and other places one by one to confirm that there were no zombies before going to the bathroom again.
I turned on the faucet, and as expected, the water stopped.
After all the people were turned into zombies, all machinery and equipment were shut down, and power and water outages were normal phenomena.
With a thought, he took out the toiletries and purified water from the system space and started washing.
If other people saw this scene, they would definitely scold Lin Mo for being a prodigal.
In the apocalypse, drinking water is definitely one of the most precious resources, but he uses it to brush his teeth. This is simply a sin.
But for Lin Mo, it was just a bottle of pure water. He could buy a bunch of them with 1 point, so there was no need to make himself uncomfortable just to save this little water.
After washing up, he went to the kitchen, turned on the gas stove, and started frying steak.
What is used here is not natural gas, but canned liquefied gas, so it is not affected by power and water outages.
As for the steak, he purchased it in the supermarket before.
It’s definitely not as good as the top Wagyu in the system mall, but since you’ve already stocked up, there’s no need to waste points.
Soon, the steak began to sizzle with oil, and the aroma began to spread.
Lin Mo immediately closed the kitchen door to prevent the scent from spreading and attracting zombies.
After a while, the steak was cooked.
Taking out the black pepper juice that he had stocked up in advance and spreading it on, Lin Mo didn't care much and just picked it up with chopsticks and ate it.
A big mouthful of meat is chewed in the mouth, which is full of fragrance. An unprecedented sense of satisfaction and happiness fills the heart.
"Under the current circumstances, there shouldn't be many people who can eat steak!"
