A slender girl who looked no more than 20 years old appeared in the profile card. Although she hadn't seen her for several years, Xiao Qi recognized her at a glance. She was still sad that she had no relatives, but she didn't expect to find her friend so quickly. Xiao Qi clicked on the "Add Friend" button without saying a word, and also indicated that she was Xiao Qi on the application.

After waiting for a while to digest lunch, Hou Jia still hadn't seen her message, so Xiao Qi simply ignored it and continued to explore higher floors.

There are three floors above. As expected, there is nothing complete from here on. Even the building is missing pieces here and there. Xiao Qi spent an afternoon collecting materials from these three floors.

It was spring, and it got dark relatively late. Before dark, Xiao Qi collected 23 pieces of wood, 21 pieces of stone, 16 pieces of refined wood, 20 pieces of hemp rope, 5 pieces of glass, and 8 pieces of stone bricks. After the upgrade, all of these items increased tenfold.

The building materials here seem to be better than the last building, I don't know why. But this way, I have taken another step forward in upgrading my shelter, and I only need a little more to successfully reach level 4!

It's only been five days since I came here, but I've already upgraded the shelter to level 4. It's exciting just to think about it. Xiao Qi, who has never been particularly outstanding, really felt the joy of being a boss this time.

After leaving with a full bag of supplies, Xiao Qi quickly returned to her own shelter. She was not very hungry, so she simply took a bath first. The bathtub was really nice and much more comfortable than a shower. In this situation, I'm afraid that many people would have trouble drinking water, but she was actually taking a bath in the bathtub...

While taking a bath, Xiao Qi opened the ring. Unexpectedly, Hou Jia accepted his friend request at three o'clock in the afternoon and talked to him a lot.

"Xiao Qi...? It's you! Is it really you?! Oh my god, I didn't expect that I could actually contact someone I know. I post a message on the world channel every day, but no one has ever responded to me in all these days. I was about to despair!"

"This place is so scary. We have to survive against zombies, and there is no food or water. We have to get everything by ourselves. How can we survive here? If we die here, will we really disappear completely like he said?"

"How could this happen? This kind of thing that only appears in TV dramas and novels can actually happen to us. I feel like I can't hold on for the next two days..."

"Do you have anything to eat and drink? If you have any difficulties, be sure to tell me! I don't have much, but it won't be a big problem to help you. Don't hide anything when you encounter problems. Let's solve it together."

Seeing so much chattering news, Xiao Qi suddenly felt a warm current in her heart. In the past few days since she came to the end of the world, she had hardly communicated with anyone. Humans are social animals, and she had been suffocating for a long time. Moreover, Hou Jia only cared about herself. It was not like what many people said, "A friend in need is a friend indeed." When you are in danger, your friends will be the first to betray you.

Seeing Hou Jia's anxious tone, Xiao Qi smiled and replied.

"I'm fine. I'm not starving to death. How are you doing? Are you alone? Are you having a lot of trouble?"

As soon as Xiao Qi sent the message, Hou Jia replied within seconds.

"I'm fine! I was born in the countryside. Although there aren't many things, there is a lot of food to pick. I'm sure I won't starve to death."

Rural area? I didn't expect she was actually in the countryside. If there were seeds or something, wouldn't it be possible to achieve sustainable development if we brought them back? Xiao Qi had some ideas.

"You're in the countryside? Then can you get some seeds and grow your own vegetables?"

"No! I've tried, and the seeds of these things are very few, and none of them will sprout when planted."

"What a pity...Are you sure the method you used is correct?"

"I'm not sure about this. After all, we are all city dwellers and are not very experienced in growing vegetables. I just followed my grandmother and I to grow crops. But it's been so long, so it's possible that my memory is wrong! Do you want to give it a try? I can give you some seeds."

Hou Jia immediately sent 10 wheat seeds, 5 strawberry seeds, and 5 bean sprouts.

It seems that seeds are really precious, but there are only so few of them. But shouldn't these crops be covered with seeds? Why are there so few?

Before Xiao Qi could ask Hou Jia, the system jumped out in a hurry to explain to him.

"Ding! The seeds produced by crops in nature cannot be planted! Crops found in nature only have a 0.5% chance of producing seeds!"

Good guy... Her dream of a perpetual motion machine was crushed. Since it cannot be reused! It seems that planting is not a good idea. Disposable seeds that can only be used once are really useless. However, this is Hou Jia's intention, Xiao Qi still happily accepted the seeds and thanked her.

"I'll treat you to some when I grow them."

"Okay, then you have to work hard."

Xiao Qi smiled and took out the seeds sent by Hou Jia and observed them carefully. Each one was the same size. As she was watching, the system suddenly spoke.

"We cannot carry out planting activities at this stage!"

Hmm? At this stage? Is it because the game is too new to have the planting function? If so, then we can't plant them right away. We have to wait and see.

Hou Jia was exploring a farmer's house when he unexpectedly received a message from Xiao Qi.

"Your friend sends you a trade, 8-inch Black Forest Cake*1, required materials: None, do you accept?"

Hou Jia, who had only been able to eat bread and steamed buns for the past few days, stood there in a daze looking at the tempting Black Forest cake. She seemed to have not yet reacted to what had happened. After all, she knew what a whole eight-inch cake represented in the doomsday world.

She didn't care how Xiao Qi had such good supplies, nor did she feel envious or jealous, but she felt a surge of warmth and gratitude, and excitedly chose to agree to the deal. She was not a pretentious person, and her relationship with Xiao Qi had always been good. If she wasted time and effort to shirk her responsibility, then she would not take their relationship seriously.

"Oh my god, it's actually my favorite dessert, Xiao Qi, thank you."

"You gave me the seeds, so I should be grateful. These things will probably be priceless treasures in the future! It's getting late, you should also go to bed early."

"Okay! I'll share with you if I get anything good in the future."

"It's a word."

After greeting Hou Jia, Xiao Qi began to sort out the various supplies he had obtained today. He only found a first-level home box today, and the other things were all upgraded parts. Xiao Qi directly chose to open this box.

"Congratulations on winning an oven*1 → Congratulations on winning a multifunctional electric oven*1, with larger capacity and solar charging for longer battery life."

"Congratulations on winning an air fryer*1 → Congratulations on winning a solar air fryer*1, solar charging for long-lasting battery life, and a free air fryer baking tray*50."

Today's home box is full of pots! This game seems to provide very few ready-made meals, but more of a variety of ingredients, raw meat, vegetables and condiments. If you want to eat steaming fresh meals, you have to cook them yourself.

Now that I have so many kinds of kitchen utensils, I should be able to improve my life a little bit...? Xiao Qi fell into deep thought. She could hardly cook. Although she had always wanted to learn how to cook, she failed every time when she thought about what to make and how to do it.

When she cooks instant noodles, they overflow, let alone other dishes...!

This made Xiao Qi, who had just regained his confidence, worried. How could he eat fresh food? Should he hire a chef in the doomsday survival game? It was simply a fantasy.

Xiao Qi smiled bitterly and placed the two pots in a conspicuous place in the kitchen. Even if he didn't know how to use them, he had to watch them to prove that his luck was still good!

I'll just eat one tonight... Xiao Qi opened the ring and after thinking for a long time, he decided to eat instant food, such as a steamed bun and a pear. It's not good to eat too much at night, Xiao Qi comforted himself while eating the steamed bun and pear.

The days passed too fast. Every time Xiao Qi looked at his supplies, he felt that they were too far behind. It was not enough. It was not easy to survive in this strange world full of dangers. He had to be highly nervous every day and do what he had to do well.

Thinking about it, Xiao Qi opened the chat channel of the ring to see what everyone was talking about and relax. Unexpectedly, a new pinned message appeared, and the person who posted it this time was no longer Liu Yang.

Zhang Xiaoxian: No mutation will occur within 2 hours after being bitten by a zombie. You just need to treat the wound correctly and take some anti-inflammatory and antipyretic drugs to greatly reduce the probability of infection.

Xiao Qi was stunned. How could he not turn into a corpse immediately? She didn't expect that someone could find such information. At the same time, she was a little skeptical about its authenticity. However, her thoughts were soon confirmed by everyone's discussion.

"I was with a friend of mine! He was bitten by a zombie, and he really had no reaction for the first two hours, just like a normal person!"

"I was accidentally scratched by a zombie a few days ago! But I took two pills and I'm fine now. I'm fully healed now. It must be true."

"I have a friend who took medicine and still got infected! What happened?"

Xiao Qi frowned deeply. What was the purpose of the game's arrangement? To give players a way out? However, medicine... She had not found any medicine so far, and there was no news of any related treatment items.
