Xiao Jun slapped himself hard twice, forcing himself to calm down.
In the top-grade airdrop box, spatial equipment was bound to appear. There must be even better things. He had to stay calm.
The third item - a high-tech combat uniform.
"A combat uniform that only general-grade people can own, which can withstand massive damage."
This thing was much rarer than weapons. In his past life, such a combat uniform could sell for a sky-high price, one that the lord of Future City would give two wives for.
Damn, was this what a dream start felt like?
Xiao Jun couldn't help glancing at the girl not far away. If not for him, all of this would have originally been hers.
The fourth item - a small lunchbox.
"A portable lunchbox often used by warriors, containing rice balls of various flavors."
Don't look down on this lunchbox. There were a total of 20 rice balls inside. Just one rice ball could keep you full of energy for a whole day.
Moreover, these rice balls tasted amazing with all kinds of flavors, comparable to a five-star hotel's cuisine. In the future, it would become his staple food.
The fifth item - a military water bottle.
"A portable water bottle often used by warriors, which can store 50 liters of drinking water."
Food and water for the next month had just been easily solved. After a month, he would definitely be able to find more resources.
The sixth item - antidote.
"Can relieve zombie virus under tier three".
At this stage, the zombies were only tier one. Tier two zombies would probably appear after a month. This antidote was a magic potion for the current period. Even if he was unfortunately scratched by a zombie, there was no need to worry.
The seventh item - another high-tech steel knife.
When the eighth item, a blue pill, was taken out, Xiao Jun was still a bit confused. He seemed to have never seen such a thing in the apocalypse before. However, he had heard his obscene roommate describe it when he was studying. But the introduction next made him almost jump up.
"Advanced mutant compound, after taking it, it can change genes and greatly improve basic physical fitness."
Damn, a mutant compound. Xiao Jun hadn't even heard of it before. It meant that even after six years, such a thing would still be as rare as phoenix feathers and unicorn horns, and ordinary people simply had no chance of knowing about it.
Greatly improving basic physical fitness, just this point was enough to explain how awesome it was. He just didn't know what the specific effects were.
While thinking about it, Xiao Jun casually stuffed the blue pill into his mouth. Whether it worked well or not, he would know after eating it anyway.
The pill melted as soon as it entered his mouth, saving the need to swallow it with water. After a few seconds, he felt a hot sensation throughout his body, as if his energy was exploding and difficult to suppress.
The whole process didn't last long. After two minutes, Xiao Jun returned to normal.
Picking up the high-tech steel knife he had just obtained, Xiao Jun was delighted.
Although such steel knives were useful, they were a bit heavy for ordinary people and difficult to swing. But now when he held it with one hand, he didn't feel any weight at all.
His strength had increased by at least three times. This was Xiao Jun's conclusion.
If his strength had increased threefold, didn't that mean his speed, explosive power and so on would also increase threefold? After all, the introduction said that it greatly improved overall basic physical fitness.
He couldn't test the rest for now. There would be plenty of opportunities later.
Now he needed to open the remaining things.
Continuing to open the box, his good luck seemed to have run out. The ninth and tenth items were just normal food, a rice ball and a water bottle.
When all ten items were taken out, the light in the box slowly disappeared and it became an ordinary box.
Seeing the light of the box disappear, Xiao Jun reluctantly looked it over carefully again to make sure there really was nothing left in it before giving up, still feeling a little unsatisfied.
Because the zombies nearby had all been cleared out by him, and no new zombies would come over for a while, Xiao Jun started tidying up his stuff.
First he put everything into his spatial ring, including his backpack, lunchbox and water bottle.
What remained were two steel knives and a high-tech combat uniform.
He put on the combat uniform directly. With this thing, he didn't have to worry about being attacked from behind unless it was a headshot.
Xiao Jun didn't need two steel knives either, so he kept one.
Not far away, Wan Qianya watched with her own eyes as Xiao Jun opened that box, then made things appear and disappear like magic.
At this moment, Wan Qianya only had one thought - as long as she followed him, she would definitely survive.
Once this idea came out, it just wouldn't stop.
When the zombie army appeared, Wan Qianya had already thought that rescue teams might not come at all. To survive, she could only rely on herself.
That was why she dared to walk around the zombie-infested campus alone to look for airdrop boxes.
But now, a better way was right in front of her - as long as she attached herself to this man, she could also live well.
When the apocalypse came, most men would pluck up the courage to fight, while the vast majority of women would rely more on men. This was the gender difference.
Seeing that Xiao Jun hadn't left yet, Wan Qianya finally plucked up the courage and walked towards him.
She was very confident in her figure and appearance. She was previously one of the top ten campus belles in the Business School and a dance major. This was her capital, her capital to survive.
Seeing Wan Qianya come over, Xiao Jun's conditioned reflex was to pick up his steel knife. This woman was very likely to become one of the top ten masters of Future City in the future.
But he soon relaxed. His current strength was extremely powerful, while the other party was just an ordinary girl. She was no threat to him at all.
When Wan Qianya got closer, Xiao Jun felt her beauty even more intuitively.
She was about 165cm tall with delicate features and a touch of helpless charm, enough to make any man protective.
Her sparse, tight-fitting clothes outlined her perfect figure even more explicitly.
A devilish figure plus an angelic face, such temptation - who could withstand it?
"I want to follow you."
Before Xiao Jun could speak, Wan Qianya went straight for the kill.
【As long as I can follow him, no matter what he wants I can agree to it. As long as I can live that's enough.】
Xiao Jun narrowed his eyes. Wan Qianya's heart held only a strong will to survive. No wonder this woman could become one of the top ten masters. With such decisiveness, she was not ordinary at all.
"Please, I definitely won't drag you down."
Seeing that Xiao Jun didn't speak, Wan Qianya panicked. This was her only chance. If Xiao Jun refused, she really didn't know what to do.
She had seen several airdrop boxes, only this one was the closest. But now it had been cleaned out by Xiao Jun. For her to find other airdrop boxes, how easy would that be?
A strong will to survive plus the courage to walk alone amidst the campus full of zombies, Xiao Jun was somewhat moved.
Adding her identity as one of the future top ten masters, this investment should be worthwhile.
So just take her along. If her performance was no good he could simply abandon her. Anyway, he could hear her inner thoughts and had no fear of her suddenly betraying him.
"Then keep up, if you get lost I won't bother looking for you."
【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought.

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
