Li Chengyi quickened his steps and walked up the stairs in front of the small store.
As soon as he set foot on the steps, everything behind him was completely engulfed by the gray fog.
The gray fog churned, quickly darkening into the same black mist as before.
His figure paused, then continued forward, approaching the store's entrance.
The glass door was already open, as if welcoming his arrival.
The lights inside slowly brightened, illuminating all the shelves and displays.
Li Chengyi looked at the still empty store and stepped inside with his right foot clad in black armor.
Step by step, he quickly grabbed a piece of snack food, resembling a chocolate wrapper, from the shelves, something he had never bought before.
Turning around, he walked toward the counter.
The cheaper the item he purchased, the shorter the support time required.
He had discovered this upon entering the store earlier.
Zhong Hui's notes also mentioned this point.
Pa.
