Pain, it was too painful!
The excruciating pain spread throughout Zhang Yi's body.
It wasn't just a feeling, it was a harsh reality that was happening to him.
At this moment, he was being mercilessly beaten by his friends and neighbors whom he had once trusted and helped. Punches, kicks, and even sticks rained down on him.
In this post-apocalyptic world of scarce resources, they didn't even care about the help Zhang Yi had given them and turned on him!
In his dying moments, he faintly saw his goddess, Fang Yuqing, standing behind the crowd, looking pitiful and shouting, 'I let him open the door, so you should give me more supplies!'
It was this woman who tricked Zhang Yi into opening the door and then caused his death.
Zhang Yi looked at her with hatred and regret in his eyes.
He could only blame himself for being too naive and kind, which led him to become a stepping stone for others in this post-apocalyptic world.
He wished he could start over again.
When that time comes, he will not be kind to anyone and will only live for himself!
Zhang Yi quickly lost consciousness with his eyes closed.
However, in the next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the sofa.
The hellish scene he had just experienced and the terrible pain were still vivid in his mind.
Zhang Yi gasped for air and soon his whole body was soaked in sweat.
What's going on? Wasn't I killed by those beasts of neighbors?"
After coming to his senses, Zhang Yi began to look around.
He was not unfamiliar with this place; it was his own house.
The comfortable temperature in the air made him feel extremely surprised.
This was because in December 2050 AD, Blue Star was hit by a supernova explosion 500,000 light-years away, ushering in a global Cambrian storm.
The global temperature dropped sharply, and the daily temperature in Tianhai City,
where Zhang Yi lived, was around minus 60-70 degrees Celsius. The blizzard lasted for a month and submerged the entire city.
It was said that in the north of China, the temperature even dropped to a terrifying minus 100 degrees Celsius, burying the earth in snow and ice.
Various species were extinct on a large scale, and even more than 95% of humans died in this disaster.
Zhang Yi stood up and took a bottle of water from the refrigerator, drinking down most of it with a "gudong gudong" sound.
Although the temperature of the refrigerated water was very low, for him now, this kind of water was like nectar.
During the apocalypse, the only way for people to obtain water was to go out and dig snow to melt into water in extreme low temperatures of minus 60-70 degrees Celsius.
Such work could easily freeze people to death.
After drinking the water, Zhang Yi opened his phone and glanced at it.
The time displayed on it was "November 12th".
There was still a whole month before the end of the world. "It seems that I have been reborn,"
Zhang Yi took a deep breath and quickly understood what had happened.
The experience of that one month couldn't have been a dream, especially the excruciating pain of being dismembered, which was too real.
After surviving the disaster, Zhang Yi felt extremely fortunate.
At the same time, his eyes flashed with an extremely sharp light.
He remembered very clearly the people who had killed him.
In this world, he must live well and not show any kindness to those beasts.
Moreover, on the premise of ensuring his own safety, he must fiercely retaliate against those people!
But now, Zhang Yi's first priority was to figure out how to survive in the apocalypse that would arrive in a month.
Zhang Yi's living conditions were still relatively good.
His parents had passed away early, and he inherited a 120-square-meter house in Tianhai City. He also had more than 2 million yuan in savings, which would have been considered relatively affluent in normal times.
However, with the arrival of the apocalypse, there would be a huge shortage of resources worldwide.
With just this little money in his hand, he couldn't sustain himself for long.
After all, to survive alone, he needed a huge amount of resources. In the case of being able to prepare in advance, Zhang Yi not only wanted to survive but also hoped to have a certain quality of life in the future.
Food, entertainment, and other aspects had to be taken into account; otherwise, his mental state would definitely collapse over time.
And weapons and equipment were also necessary. Only in that way could he protect his safety and complete his revenge against his neighbors.
Just then, a strand of white light suddenly appeared before Zhang Yi's eyes.
He felt that his right eye was a little blurry, so he reached out to rub it. Suddenly, a strange thought emerged in his mind.
It seemed that this strand of white light was a part of him, and information about the white light also appeared in his mind.
With a single thought, Zhang Yi's consciousness instantly entered the white light.
Upon entering, he found himself in an incredibly vast white space with an unknown area, filled with large areas of blank space. "Is this... an alternate space?" Zhang Yi wondered. "It seems that after my rebirth, I have gained some special abilities."
Zhang Yi was overjoyed. It seemed that the gamma rays had caused his body to mutate, giving him extraordinary strength.
With this huge space, storing supplies for the apocalypse would be much more convenient. However,
Zhang Yi wanted to know how much this space could hold and if there were any restrictions on what objects it could collect. His consciousness immediately returned to his room, and he began to try putting things from his house into the space.
He started with cups and basins, which were easily placed inside. Zhang Yi then tried to put larger appliances into the space, such as the TV, refrigerator, washing machine, computer, air conditioner, and vacuum cleaner.
The white space accepted everything without discrimination, taking all of these items inside.
Moreover, with just a single thought, Zhang Yi could retrieve items from the space.
However, objects that were subject to strong external forces and were not separate entities were difficult to collect.
For example, when he tried to dig out a piece of floor from the ground, there was no response.
"It seems that the alternate space has many rules, and I need to explore them slowly," Zhang Yi thought. "But just having this huge space that can store objects will allow me to store a massive amount of resources!"
He licked his lips and came up with a bold plan.
Zhang Yi's job was as a supervisor at the Walmart South China warehouse.
As the world's largest supermarket, Walmart had everything in stock. It had three giant warehouses in China: one in South China, one in Central China, and one in North China.
The volume of these three warehouses was terrifying, especially the South China warehouse. It was built in 2040, was 1500 meters long, 720 meters wide, and covered an area of over one million square meters!
It was the world's largest warehouse! The president of Walmart Greater China once praised it as the eighth wonder of the world!
Of course, there were only seven recognized wonders of the world, and the eighth wonder was self-proclaimed, with thousands of contenders.
However, the area and storage capacity of the South China warehouse were indeed unparalleled in the world of warehousing.
The supplies it kept in stock could supply the consumption of millions of people in several cities for weeks.
In other words, if Zhang Yi emptied one warehouse and moved everything into his space, he wouldn't be able to use up all those resources in his lifetime, even if he lived for ten generations!
The most crucial thing was that Walmart had very strict quality control. There were no low-grade miscellaneous goods in the warehouse.
Whether it was food, general merchandise, or luxury goods, they were all reputable big brands. If Zhang Yi could empty one Walmart warehouse, not only would he not have to worry about supplies for the apocalypse, but he could also live a very comfortable life.
As a warehouse supervisor, Zhang Yi was extremely familiar with every shelf, monitoring device, and personnel schedule in the warehouse.
Emptying the warehouse would not be a difficult task for him. After making up his mind, Zhang Yi felt much more relaxed. "Goo-goo~" Just then, his stomach protested with a growl.
Zhang Yi rubbed his stomach and looked at the yellow braised chicken rice he had bought on the table. He hesitated for a moment, then shook his head with a smile, choosing to give up on the takeout.
"The apocalypse is only a month away, and I need to eat many delicious things quickly, or I won't have the chance later. Why be so stingy with myself?" After surviving for a month in the cold and hunger, Zhang Yi urgently hoped to eat some hot and delicious food.
What was the point of keeping money?
After the apocalypse, money would become worthless paper, so he might as well spend it all now to avoid wasting it.
Zhang Yi turned around confidently, ready to find a high-end restaurant he had never been to before and have a good meal.
