[Half-ripe Mushroom]: It has a fragrant smell. If one does not have exquisite culinary skills, consuming it will cause hallucinations.
[Bio-energy Degradation Enzyme]: Can decompose bio-energy into free energy ions, serving as a material for weapon crafting.
[Supply Crate Indicator]: Can explore all Level 1-3 supply crates in the current area, or randomly display the location of one Level 4 or higher supply crate.
Huh? The description for [Supply Crate Indicator] has changed?
Zhang Chen remembered that the last time he obtained this item, its description only had the first half, without the latter half.
With the world already in this state, only Level 3 supply crates could yield anything useful.
However, such high-tier supply crates were usually limited to one per area.
For Level 1 and Level 2 supply crates, apart from Talent Crystals, the contents were basically garbage.
Choosing the former would definitely be a loss!
Use [Supply Crate Indicator]!
Choose to randomly display the location of one Level 4 or higher supply crate!
Ding! Display successful. A Level 4 supply crate has been detected and will be continuously displayed on the mini-map until it is opened!
Subsequently, on Zhang Chen's mini-map, which had only explored a small area, a small red dot appeared in a completely black section.
This should be the Level 4 supply crate!
Let's go, Little White, Er Pang!
Zhang Chen called out.
Coming!
Little White, clutching several dolls, a set of clothes for changing, and a toy house, came sprinting over.
The two of them and the wolf had not walked far from the supermarket entrance.
They saw thick smoke billowing out from the supermarket doors.
Soon, the entire supermarket was engulfed in flames.
Zhang Chen continued forward, following the direction indicated by the red dot on the mini-map.
He stored the dolls in Little White's hands into his ring.
After advancing another kilometer or so.
The city roads became increasingly worse.
Giant vines and roots broke through the soil, winding and twisting across the ground.
Giant trees, thirty to forty meters tall, were visible everywhere in the city.
Some trees grew directly out of buildings, leaning out, piercing the glass facades, and stretching their branches outwards.
Leaves the size of manhole covers were scattered everywhere on the ground.
Traversing this urban jungle, Zhang Chen suddenly felt as if he had been shrunk to the size of an ant.
Little White saw that in just a few days, the world had transformed completely from a city of steel and concrete.
This terrain was very unfavorable for riding.
Zhang Chen dismounted from Er Pang, who had also reverted to its smaller form.
Little White, upon landing, was like a bird breaking free from its cage.
She darted through the urban forest at great speed.
Sometimes she would pick up a large leaf to shield her head and giggle foolishly.
Sometimes she would climb trees and poke rolling worms the size of rolling pins with her finger.
The worms reacted quickly.
Every time Little White poked them, they would swiftly turn their heads to bite.
But Little White was even faster, always moving away before the worm's large teeth could touch her fingers.
Then she would laugh heartily from the side. Reading Here.
After playing for a while.
Seeing that Zhang Chen had walked a bit further, Little White suddenly threw a punch.
With a squish.
She smashed the worm, causing it to explode.
She wiped her hands with a leaf and then quickly caught up.
Creak... creak...
A few Hexagonal Monster Worms nearby were gnawing on a zombie carcass in front of a shop.
Upon sensing Er Pang's pressure, they quickly fled.
With the opening of the new world, the bio-energy in the air and soil had become more abundant, and Er Pang's pressure had consequently been compressed.
What was originally a hundred-meter range was now reduced to about fifty meters.
Continuing their journey, survivors began to appear in the roadside shops.
The windows were reinforced with wire mesh, and tar was placed on the ground, possibly to fend off insect swarms.
At the same time, they spotted Zhang Chen and his companions wandering outside.
For a moment, their eyes were filled with jealousy, envy, worry, and even schadenfreude.
Some believed Zhang Chen was strong enough to wander outside.
Others thought Zhang Chen was an unfortunate soul expelled from his own camp.
Still others rushed to the main gate, reconfirming that it was locked and all defensive fortifications were secure.
Only then did they return to the windows, watching Zhang Chen with vigilance.
These people are looking at us, should we kill them all?
Little White suddenly asked.
Huh? They're just looking at us, why should we kill them?
Zhang Chen replied with a helpless expression.
Oh, I see!
Little White said with a hint of disappointment.
Although Zhang Chen had explained, Little White still didn't understand why she couldn't kill these people.
But she was well-behaved and obedient.
If Zhang Chen said not to kill, then she wouldn't kill them!
Can't make Daddy unhappy!
Zhang Chen opened the regional chat channel.
The entire channel was dead silent, with almost no one speaking.
The initial excitement and mutual comfort of the apocalypse were gone.
As time passed, most survivors had gradually united to form camps.
Matters within the camp were naturally not something they wanted others to see in the regional channel.
Similarly, even if there were isolated survivors, they dared not speak carelessly in the regional channel.
Who knew if the camp in this region was friendly or a predatory one?
The camps stationed in this region had likely already figured out the area's scope and possible hiding spots.
If it were the latter, speaking out would be equivalent to telling them that a fat sheep had arrived.
Isolated survivors were often more cautious and cunning than those in camps.
Therefore, they would absolutely not engage in foolish acts like being in the open while the enemy was hidden.
Thus, the regional chat channel had become almost a decoration.
After walking through two more regions.
Zhang Chen suddenly heard a whistling sound.
It wasn't a coded whistle, but one that sounded somewhat like heckling.
He followed the sound.
He saw a five-story hotel that had been modified like a tin can. The lower floor windows were all sealed, and the exterior walls were covered with thick metal plates.
It was clearly an impregnable fortress!
By a fourth-floor window, several Black men were whistling at Little White, sticking out their tongues.
From time to time, they uttered lewd and vulgar words.
Little White's current mentality was like that of a child; her information was limited, and she had no idea what they were saying, so she showed no reaction.
Instead, she looked curiously at these Black men, seemingly wondering why they were so dark-skinned.
Little White didn't understand, but Zhang Chen did.
He waved his right hand!
An energy wave shot out horizontally.
Starting from the first window on the fourth floor, it sliced all the way to the last window...
Instantly, the air fell silent...
Little White: ??? Didn't you say you wouldn't kill people casually?!
