Survival in the apocalypse: I exploited a bug in an infinite dungeon.

Cheng Rui then remembered that this required gasoline.

Shi Jinwei said there was enough gasoline in the tank for them to drive about five kilometers, and he didn't doubt it. Instead, he started looking for a gas station with great interest.

Shi Jinwei took out the thruster now because she saw a gas station not far away.

The gas station's fuel tank was almost entirely submerged in water; it's unclear whether it's still usable.

The two steered the boat over, and Shi Jinwei jumped in without changing her clothes. Sure enough, she found the refueling hose inside.

She handed out the pipe and found a small tin oil drum floating nearby.

Tell Cheng Rui to hold the pipe and the oil drum, and then go down and press the switch yourself.

Fortunately, there was a backup power source here. Since no one had come to refuel, the refueling equipment was still usable. They quickly filled a barrel with oil and also filled the thruster.

(This is mostly just speculation; don't worry about whether it's realistic.)

To be on the safe side, she also retrieved several gas station refueling drums from the water and filled them all.

Both of them were very satisfied with what they had gained.

Seeing Shi Jinwei trembling after boarding the boat, he suggested that she change her clothes quickly.

Shi Jinwei didn't hesitate and simply hid behind a pillar.

He pulled two broken planks from the water, had Cheng Rui stand with his back to him while holding onto the planks, and quickly changed his clothes.

After changing, they remembered they had brought clothes for the guy, so they made him change his clothes too, and then the two of them left.

With gasoline and a propulsion system, the speed increased significantly, and the kayak was driven to the vicinity of the official office building by the afternoon.

In addition to the tax bureau, there is also a police station near the official office building in Anrong City.

All three institutions are fan-shaped buildings, built around a large square, forming a roundabout.

Instead of rushing inside, they found a detached building nearby to observe it first.

The building was empty except for a few rotting corpses that emitted a foul stench.

Besides mosquitoes and flies, there were also maggots wriggling on it, which made the two of them feel a chill and they quickly left.

Next, they found a place to stay a little further away.

Unfortunately, there was someone there who kept coughing and had something like red spots on their body.

The two were so frightened that they left again.

"Sis, if it really comes down to it, let's park further away."

After being repeatedly frightened, Cheng Rui felt that his heart could not take it.

Seeing that he looked weak, Shi Jinwei did not refuse.

After driving for about 20 minutes, they finally found a safe place to rest.

Shi Jinwei took out her phone from her spatial storage. She usually turns it off when she's not using it, so it still had 67% battery left.

She meticulously examined the official office building from the offline map, scrutinizing even the 3D and holographic images, but to no avail.

According to Cheng Rui, the safe house is on the second basement level. The elevator is currently out of service, so they need to go down the stairs and then dive in.

"Due to various factors such as earthquakes, fires, and floods, the building was constructed with a separate elevator at the entrance on the second basement level. There is a buffer zone between it and the outside world, which you can think of as a vacuum zone. We can only enter the safe house if we find that zone."

Cheng Rui explained in great detail, as if he had actually been there, finally prompting Shi Jinwei to ask the question that had been on her mind: "How did you know?"

It's a bit too illogical that official secrets would be known by a rich kid like this.

Cheng Rui gave an embarrassed smile: "My second brother has a very close relationship with important officials here. He's abroad, and he called me to tell me the news before the internet was cut off."

Shi Jinwei: "..."

Okay, this NPC has quite a few identities. He's not only a rich second-generation, but also a rich second-generation with connections to important officials.

-------------------------------------

With no younger brother to command, the two took turns keeping watch that night.

However, there are other buildings around the building that was chosen this time.

The cries, screams, and groans of women and children, along with the sounds of men laughing, cursing, and fighting, were amplified and made especially clear at night.

The two sat in front of the campfire, listening silently to the sounds coming from outside, without saying a word.

On the 18th day of the game, the torrential rain continued, and the water level was still rising, now reaching more than 10 meters high, which is more than three stories high.

According to Cheng Rui's deduction, at this rate, the dam of the hydropower station should reach its limit in a few days, and there is not much time left for them to waste.

But when they set off again, they encountered new problems.

Firstly, there are people at the official office building, but the number is unknown.

I wonder if their visit yesterday attracted the attention of these people; we need to be extra careful when going out today.

Secondly, they wanted to get to the second basement level, either by going down from inside the building or through the underground parking garage.

There are people inside the building, so the feasibility of this plan is unknown. Not only will they have to figure out how to find the stairs from the underground parking garage, but with three oxygen cylinders per person, an hour and a half might not be enough time for them.

Another crucial issue is that while they can all swim, their knowledge of diving is limited, making the danger of going down into the water quite obvious.

After they sorted out all the problems, they found that the most difficult thing was not the journey itself, but rather arriving at their destination only to find themselves unable to enter.

"Never mind, let's go check the situation first," Shi Jinwei said.

She also had a kayak in her space. The fact that her belongings were stolen wasn't the main issue; the main issue was how she managed to sneak in.

Since sitting and thinking won't lead to any good solutions, we might as well face these problems head-on.

So we decided to eat something and then head out. But before we could even open the bread bag, we heard footsteps coming from downstairs.

A woman's voice could be faintly heard: "It's true, I really saw it. If you don't believe me, come and see for yourselves."

Their voices were weak and urgent. They exchanged a glance but neither moved.

Cheng Rui's wounds had scabbed over, and he could easily handle several people on his own. Shi Jinwei, wielding a boat oar as a weapon, was also a formidable fighter.

The people downstairs came up quickly. It was a burly man wearing a vest, his muscles bulging, looking like he could fight. He was followed by four or five henchmen carrying sticks and knives, exuding a strong gangster vibe.

At the very back was a timid woman with long, messy hair draped over her body, her face obscured by her lowered head.

The bruises on her exposed skin made it easy to tell what kind of inhuman torture she had suffered.

But upon seeing the two people in front of her, she surprisingly gave a strange smile: "Brother Huai, I wasn't lying to you, was I? Look, this woman is so beautiful. If you take her back..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but the meaning was obvious.

Cheng Rui's face darkened immediately, while Shi Jinwei frowned as she looked at the woman opposite her.

Upon hearing the woman's words, Brother Huai, for some unknown reason, revealed a lewd smile: "Little wench, the pretty boy next to you looks weak. How about coming with me? I'll take you to eat and drink the good life."

After hearing this, Shi Jinwei turned to look at Cheng Rui and said seriously, "He said you're weak."

Cheng Rui: "..."
