Chapter 18 - Chapter 18: The Quest for Solar Power

With his preparations complete, Ryo ventured out into the desolate streets, his hood pulled low to conceal his identity. As he stepped outside, his heart quickened at the sight of a looming horde of zombies. But he reminded himself of his immunity and pressed on, weaving through the throng with ease.

His destination was clear—a warehouse on the outskirts of town rumored to house a cache of solar panels. Ryo navigated the eerie streets, his senses alert for any sign of danger. Despite the presence of the undead, he remained undeterred, focused on his mission.

Upon reaching the warehouse, Ryo encountered little resistance. The zombies paid him no mind as he slipped inside, their vacant eyes passing over him without recognition. He located the solar panels and a solar battery bank, hoisting them onto his back and securing them as best he could.

With his backpack laden and a heavy solar panel in tow, along with the solar battery bank on the trolley, Ryo made his way back to his apartment. He carefully maneuvered the trolley through the abandoned streets, the weight of his burden a constant reminder of the importance of his mission.

As he approached his building, Ryo encountered another horde of zombies, but they paid him no heed. With a mixture of relief and caution, he continued on, determined to see his mission through to the end.

Once inside his apartment, Ryo set to work installing the solar panels and connecting them to the solar battery bank. He methodically arranged them on the rooftop, securing them in place to capture the maximum amount of sunlight. It was a painstaking process, but one that filled him with a sense of accomplishment.

As the sun began to set, Ryo stepped back to admire his handiwork. The solar panels glinted in the fading light, a symbol of resilience in the face of adversity. With this new source of power, along with the solar battery bank, he knew he had taken a crucial step towards securing his survival in this harsh new world.
