Of course, when Zhang Yanhang's rank became higher, he might actually be able to achieve that. By then, not to mention the mud on his body, even something as trivial as earwax might be seen as containing infinite energy and considered an ultimate treasure for ordinary people.
But at this stage, that was still a far cry from the current Zhang Yanhang. Besides, by the time his rank became higher, he might not even produce something as low-level as earwax anymore.
Casually flicking the dark red ball aside, Zhang Yanhang sat back on his bed to summarize his gains, starting with bottled water and food. He had found a small supermarket downstairs, so there was no longer any worry in that aspect.
Then came firearms and ammunition. He had previously mentioned finding a Beretta 92F pistol, a Remington M870 shotgun, an electric shock gun, and the corresponding ammunition, but unfortunately, all these items found in the Ashen World were marked as 'not to be taken out' and were of grey quality miscellaneous items. Luckily, this did not affect their use in the Ashen World.
Moreover, since the Empire in the Main World was very peaceful, Zhang Yanhang hardly ever encountered battles, so whether he could take firearms out or not didn't really matter.
Next were clothes of the right size, which Zhang Yanhang hadn't found on the lower three floors and had subsequently given up searching for.
The reason he was looking for old clothes of the right size was to conserve Energy Value. Otherwise, he could have simply used alchemy to make himself a new set of clothes, but later he just got over it, figuring that crafting new clothes would only use a bit of Energy Value.
Zhang Yanhang was currently able to recover six Energy Value points per hour, and if he actively ran the Limitless Universe Skill to absorb the surrounding Spiritual Energy, he could even accelerate this Energy Value Recovery Speed. So, since it would naturally recover, not using it would be a waste, and wasting was a sin.
Well, Zhang Yanhang had simply found a suitable excuse for his laziness.
The last item was a watch to keep track of time, which Zhang Yanhang still hadn't found. The small supermarket mainly sold food and some simple household goods like towels, slippers, toothbrushes, and didn't have any watches.
[Soul points: 134 (+83)]
Then there was the number of zombies he killed on this outing. Zhang Yanhang himself hadn't counted, but from the change in the balance of Soul points, he calculated that he had killed a total of 77 zombies.
This included seventy Ordinary zombies worth one Soul point of First Tier Zero Stars, four Teacup dog zombies also of First Tier Zero Star, and three Ordinary Zombie Dogs of First Tier One Star, each worth three Soul points.
What followed was the most important part—the number of drop treasure boxes. This time, Zhang Yanhang had collected a total of 10 drop treasure boxes, averaging about seven to eight zombies per box, which means the drop rate was actually quite high.
While the statistical data seemed good, when it came down to the details, it was different. For example, Zhang Yanhang had once experienced killing twenty zombies without a single box dropping, or killing two stray zombies in a corridor only to have two boxes drop, revealing how great the randomness could be.
However, as the sample size increased, the accuracy of this statistical probability was definitely set to improve. For instance, if Zhang Yanhang continuously killed a thousand zombies and then checked the number of drop treasure boxes, there should basically be no issues with statistical accuracy.
"Next, it's time for my favorite part: opening the treasure box," said Zhang Yanhang as he pulled a treasure box out of his bulging shoulder bag.
[Would you like to open 'Drop Treasure Box (Worker Zombie)'?]
"Yes, open it." Speaking of this, Zhang Yanhang suddenly remembered a problem. Although he often fought Worker Zombies, he hadn't seen any workers zombies.
Considering this was Raccoon City at the end of the nineties, Zhang Yanhang had reason to believe that while he could freely fight Worker Zombies here, there were no actual Worker Zombies.
[Please select the specific content of 'Drop Treasure Box (Worker Zombie)']
[Item One: ?]
[Item Two: ?]
[Item Three: ?]
[Item Four: ?]
[Item Five: ?]
"Since the previous Police Zombie could drop things related to police, might the Worker Zombie also drop items related to workers?" Honestly, while police items might be of some use to Zhang Yanhang, he was completely uninterested in worker items, as the worker profession was mostly unrelated to combat in many cases.
[Item One]
[Option One: Green Medicine Grass (One), Quality Green, Artifact]
[Option Two: Green Medicine Grass (Two), Quality Green, Artifact]
[Option Three: Green Medicine Grass (Three), Quality Green, Artifact]
"Could it actually drop Green Medicine Grass?" Initially, Zhang Yanhang thought the first item would produce Soul points, but he did not expect it to turn out to be Green Medicine Grass, an item used to restore Life Value in the Biohazard game series.
[Green Medicine Grass]
[Quality: Green]
[Type: Artifact]
[Origin: Ashen World, Raccoon City, Umbrella company base, Laboratory Plantation.]
[Usage effect: Restores 50 Life Value points, slightly enhances Physical Recovery Speed.]
[Usage requirements: None.]
[Score: 13 (Green quality items range from 11 to 30.)]
[Introduction: A green transgenic Medicinal Herb accidentally discovered by the Umbrella company during virus development. After discovering its miraculous effects, they immediately began small-scale cultivation and gradually found that mixing this green transgenic Medicinal Herb with other transgenic Medicinal Herbs could enhance its effects.

Zhang Yanhang poked several times in the air but couldn't click on the ellipsis, eventually realizing it was merely plain text.
"..." After a few seconds of awkward silence, Zhang Yanhang quietly proceeded to check the second item.
[Item Two]
[Option One: 1 Soul point]
[Option Two: 5 Soul points]
[Option Three: 10 Soul points]
"10 Soul points, that seems pretty good." Zhang Yanhang did a quick calculation, figuring if every treasure box could drop twenty Soul points like the previous Police Zombie's drop treasure box, then his ten drop treasure boxes could yield a total of two hundred Soul points.
