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

Shi Jinwei led them to a blind spot where the bearded man couldn't see them.

Dozens of mutated rats crammed together occupy a considerable area.

She used the Tear stacking skill repeatedly, and when the four skills landed, the rat swarm kept exploding.

Blood and flesh splattered everywhere, a horrifying sight as they fell to the ground.

Within seconds, all the rats were dead.

She slowly flew back to the car, gesturing for the bearded man to continue driving.

The man kept glancing at her while driving.

Seeing that the person wasn't stained with a single drop of blood, he couldn't help but shout in his heart.

Good heavens, how did this girl manage to do that?

The remaining tasks went smoothly.

After deducting transportation costs, I earned a total of 13200 contribution points today.

His thick beard was astonishing.

He himself doesn't have any special abilities, and few people with special abilities would be willing to take ordinary people on missions.

The mortality rate is extremely high for ordinary people who team up alone.

Therefore, their lives at the base were extremely difficult.

Money is one thing, lack of ability is another.

The bearded man was lucky enough to still have a car after the apocalypse.

Their lives are much better than those of other ordinary people.

"Contentment brings happiness, and living in the moment" is his current motto.

Therefore, it would be a lie to say that I am not envious, but I have no other ulterior motives.

Over the next few days, he took Shi Jinwei with him to do tasks.

She gives men 500 points a day, which is quite generous.

By the seventh day of the game, she had earned 78600 contribution points just by completing tasks.

They were already familiar with the city's terrain, so a driver was no longer needed.

On the seventh night, when she transferred her contribution points to the bearded man, she also mentioned that she wouldn't be renting a car the next day.

The bearded man had anticipated this, and simply said that he could contact him anytime if needed.

That night she went to the black market and bought 500 liters of gasoline.

Starting on the eighth day, Shi Jinwei went on missions alone.

That day, I still took on 6 sweeping tasks.

Other high-paying tasks are not being considered at all.

Over the past few days, many taskers have encountered her outside and know that this girl completes tasks extremely quickly.

Several squads were considering recruiting him.

All the people they approached were rejected outright by Shi Jinwei.

She drove out of the gate early in the morning and headed towards Anping City.

It has now been fully clarified that the Anping base was simply a district of the former Anping City.

You can even buy a map of Anping City on the black market.

Shi Jinwei bought a ticket and used a prop phone to take a picture and save it.

These past few days, she's been going out and memorizing the terrain using a map; she's basically explored the entire city of Anping.

For this, an additional 600 contribution points were paid to the bearded man for fuel.

So she wasn't worried about getting lost when she went out alone today.

After leaving the base, we drove straight to our first target.

I completed four tasks in one morning.

At noon, I ate in the car with the doors and windows closed and the air conditioning and air purifier on.

I completed the other two tasks in the afternoon, and they went smoothly.

Successfully acquired 12000 contribution points.

I also go to the bar in the evening to listen for any news from outside.

The beast tide incident hasn't happened again in the past few days, but I've heard that trade caravans will be coming to the base in the next few days.

Many people are waiting.

On the morning of the ninth day of the game, I sensed something was wrong as soon as I arrived at the small square.

More than a dozen heavy-duty trucks had entered the city at some point and were parked neatly on the open space next to the small square.

A group of people surrounded the car, making a huge commotion.

As they got closer, they realized it was a trade convoy.

Therefore, many mission teams are not in a hurry to go on missions today, but are waiting to trade with the caravan.

Shi Jinwei has been learning about these racing teams over the past few days.

After the apocalypse, major safe cities and bases will organize official trade convoys.

These convoys would carry official supplies and trade with other cities.

However, the roads are now treacherous, and the largest safe city has a maximum of seven or eight convoys.

For a small base like Anping, having even one convoy is already quite good.

It is completely unable to meet the needs of the city residents.

This provides business opportunities for other people with superpowers.

Powerful superhumans spontaneously organize caravans to act as middlemen between various bases and safe cities.

They make a profit by reselling goods.

Some people even hire them specifically to help purchase supplies.

Or mailing things and letters.

It can be considered as a multi-functional service integrating logistics, express delivery, and postman services.

Those with the ability could even escort people, much like the镖局 (security escort agencies) of ancient times.

When the mission takers hunt down mutated plants and animals, they will collect their corpses.

While the meat is inedible, the skin and bones are excellent materials.

The same applies to mutant plants.

In the post-apocalyptic world, mineral resources are scarce, and neither cold weapons nor firearms can be mass-produced.

Unfortunately, people need weapons to fight.

A person with superpowers doesn't have unlimited abilities; when they run out, they have to use weapons to attack.

The materials from mutated plants and animals compensated for the serious problem of insufficient weapon materials.

The various safe cities and bases conducted in-depth studies of these materials.

Many new weapons have been developed, including both cold weapons and firearms.

These allow humans to barely maintain a balance with mutated plants and animals.

That's why there are tasks like collecting materials, which is another source of income for people with superpowers.

The Anping base is only so big, and many materials cannot be sold at high prices.

They saved up their earnings specifically to wait for the convoy to arrive.

The prices offered by the caravan were significantly higher than those on the black market.

When there is a special acquisition, the price could be several times higher.

So as soon as they saw the convoy arrive, everyone rushed towards it, regardless of who they were.

Of course, the convoy not only collects goods, but also sells them.

The tranquilizer guns and energy shoes were brought over by the convoy.

So Shi Jinwei didn't plan to leave the city immediately today, and followed the crowd to squeeze in that direction.

I'd like to see if there's anything more high-tech.

As soon as I entered, I heard a constant murmur of discussion.

One person raised their voice and asked, "Are you telling the truth? Is there really such a potion?"

Later, people who didn't understand asked what it was.

People around explained, "I heard that a safe city has developed a 'superpower potion' that can give ordinary people superpowers after they use it."

"Really?"

"Since that's been said, it can't be false, but it will probably take some time for it to reach us."

"Well, if that's true, we'll have to wait."

"Exactly! If we had superpowers, we could take on missions and earn contribution points too. That would be great!"

"I wonder which scientist is so amazing, such a great person who benefits all mankind."

"Exactly! If they were for sale, I'd sell everything I own to buy them."

"I'll buy it too. I'll definitely earn more if I become a superhuman, and my family's life will be much better."

The crowd was buzzing with excitement.

It's as if I'm seeing a hopeful future.

However, this excitement was quickly overshadowed by another piece of news:

Another small base has been destroyed by the beast tide.

No one escaped this time; everyone in the entire base perished.

Trade convoys still went there to do business, only to find that not a single survivor had been left in the base.

Mutant plants and mutated beasts have taken over the area.

The convoy didn't dare to go in.
