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

The car screeched as it rolled over the snow, and only after it came to a slow stop did she look up in surprise.

She discovered that the dark figure from before was now squatting by the roadside, tilting its head and looking at her.

This……

I don't even know what to say anymore. This big guy in front of me looks exactly like one of the legendary "Three Silly Dogs," an Alaskan Malamute.

Unsure, she glanced at it a few more times and then realized it was true.

But this big fool is now staring blankly at Shi Jinwei's car, looking completely naive.

Judging from its thick fur and somewhat rounded body, this creature is well-fed.

But it was precisely because it was raised so well that it was unaware of the wickedness of human nature and would come out in the middle of the night to stage accidents.

Upon realizing this, Shi Jinwei instinctively became alert.

Since it's a pet, its presence here in the middle of the night suggests it must have an owner.

And what about its owner?

Just as Shi Jinwei was having a brainstorming session, Da Sha walked straight towards it, wagged its tail, and then turned and walked in another direction.

Shi Jinwei didn't move. She watched it take a few steps, then turn around and let out a few "woofs" at her before continuing to walk forward, as if it wanted Shi Jinwei to follow it.

Everyone says animals are intelligent and perceptive, but I've never encountered one in real life, yet I've met one in a game.

As it kept turning its head back, she finally became curious. What did it want her to see?

He parked the car on the side of the road, covered himself with hand warmers, and then took out a pistol and an axe from his storage space and held them tightly in his hands before getting out of the car.

They followed Da Sha at a distance that was neither too close nor too far, and walked in one direction.

In the stillness of the night, the only sound on the snow was the crunching of Shi Jinwei's feet.

She held up an umbrella, her vision blurred by the darkness and heavy snow.

The big dog wasn't moving fast, and Shi Jinwei kept a safe distance from it, walking for about twenty minutes.

During the journey, we passed a row of two-story buildings, and candlelight was still flickering in several of the rooms.

Upon seeing the light, she shuffled even more quietly and turned off her flashlight.

Big Fool looked simple-minded, but at this moment he was very clever and didn't make a sound.

It wasn't until she turned into an alley behind the small building that she discovered there were actually three enormous Alaskan Malamutes there.

They heard the sound, turned around, whimpered at Big Fool, and continued to circling around something.

Shi Jinwei turned on her flashlight to illuminate the area ahead and was shocked to find what appeared to be three people lying on the ground.

Her heart tightened, and she quickly walked over.

Blood spread wildly on the snow, like a red rose slowly blooming in the ice and snow, both alluring and eerie.

Three people, who had stopped breathing, lay there quietly.

A man and a woman were holding a little girl tightly in their arms.

Both the man and the woman had head wounds and several bloody holes in their chests.

Considering the description of the black jacket and gray cotton coat, it's likely that this family of three also fell victim to their cruelty.

Although it's unclear why they were out at night, their clothing suggests they were living a difficult life.

The three large dogs guarding the corpse refused to leave, which probably meant they had some connection with the three people.

I just don't know if it's their owner or someone else.

She scanned the surroundings with her flashlight again and found some messy things scattered on the ground.

This includes their wallets, ID cards, and bank cards...

The familiar bank card came into view, and Shi Jinwei's eyes narrowed slightly.

The player's bank card.

I recall a discussion on the game forum about how families get into the game, with some replies saying they brought their wives, daughters, and parents. This must be the situation I'm in now.

Thinking back to what those two players said before they died, it felt incredibly ironic.

She enjoys being a lone wolf, but she's not entirely cold-blooded.

In the end, the body was gently buried with snow.

The snow will only fall heavier and heavier, eventually forming a natural burial ground.

After doing all this, she turned and left.

The mission was still ongoing, and she didn't have much time to be sad or reminisce.

The four large dogs witnessed everything Shi Jinwei did, whimpering softly until the three of them were completely buried by the snow, at which point they fell silent.

The dog's eyes were full of sadness, but when it turned around and saw Shi Jinwei leaving, Da Sha immediately followed.

It didn't forget to turn back and call out to the other three twice. The three hesitated, looked at the "grave mound" on the ground, then at Big Fool, and followed it afterward.

Shi Jinwei naturally noticed the four of them, but neither stopped them nor greeted them.

Back in the car, my limbs were a bit frozen, and the engine needed to be warmed up again after forty minutes.

She took out some hot water from her storage space, drank a few sips to warm herself up, replaced the heat packs on her body and legs that had lost their temperature, and after the car restarted, she drove directly towards the development zone.

The car wasn't going fast, and the four little ones followed at a leisurely pace.

After decades of development, Ankang City's development zone has various facilities and numerous residential areas.

However, even at noon, there was no one to be seen on the street, and all the shops were closed.

In the suburbs, you can occasionally see a few shops open for business, but here there isn't a single one.

Unfortunately, I had to eat lunch in the car.

The four dogs, perhaps due to the game's design, were much larger and more robust than real Alaskan Malamutes, and were able to hunt on their own, unlike domestic dogs at all.

While Shi Jinwei was eating, they would sneak into the alley to find food.

Out of curiosity, Shi Jinwei took out the drone to observe and found that they were not searching for trash, but instead surrounding some small animals.

The temperature has dropped sharply, making life difficult not only for humans but also for animals.

Stray dogs and cats have mostly started to act in groups, and these four, being plump and strong, naturally attracted a lot of covetous eyes.

So Shi Jinwei witnessed a "Four Idiots vs. Wild Dogs" incident while eating in the car.

The six stray dogs had a clear division of labor; although they looked thin and bony, they were absolutely dominant in numbers.

Although the four idiots were two fewer in number, their teamwork was exceptionally good. They quickly killed all four and then devoured them.

The scene looked somewhat bloody, but Shi Jinwei was very satisfied with the condition of the four animals.

When humans face natural disasters, aren't animals also facing a struggle for survival?

She didn't think there was anything controversial about such a battle; in fact, she felt that it was the only way for them to continue to survive here.

After lunch, the dogs returned. Shi Jinwei glanced at them and, seeing that they were all in good condition, drove off.

She drives slowly and probably won't be able to leave the development zone today, so finding a place to stay tonight will be a problem.

By this time, the outside temperature had dropped to around -30 degrees Celsius.

After circling the streets several times without finding a single hotel open, I finally turned my attention to a building under construction in the distance.
