Apocalypse: Infinite Supplies System

Chapter 9: Endless cold medicine and cotton.

Mia, after hearing these words, immediately pictured the scene of a never-ending horde of zombies stretching as far as the eye could see.

In an instant, her face turned pale.

Even though it was just her imagination, she couldn't help feeling terrified for a while.

She couldn't help but think that Alex was very insightful.

She wasn't a stupid woman.

Although she might be a bit timid compared to Alex, she was still very practical.

Thinking about it, Mia suddenly felt that following Alex was a very correct decision.

After enjoying a hearty meal, Alex took the opportunity to rest.

This was the apocalypse, especially while on the move. He couldn't afford to waste even a minute of rest.

Physical strength was the most crucial thing for survival.

Seeing this, Mia also lay down beside Alex and closed her eyes to rest.

However, with such a masculine man lying next to her, she couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

She even thought to herself, how could Alex remain indifferent with such a beautiful woman lying next to him?

Was her charm not enough?

Mia felt a bit frustrated.

Before the apocalypse, she was the undisputed campus beauty in the highest medical institution she attended. Even when she worked at the hospital, she was a highly acclaimed chief physician.

How could she have fallen so low now that even Alex seemed uninterested?

Mia was very troubled, but Alex didn't think too much about it.

He was very clear about separating rationality from instinct.

Thinking about those kinds of things at a time like this was simply suicidal.

Alex adapted very quickly to the apocalypse. He maintained a very regular sleep schedule and even developed a very good habit of shallow sleep.

This ensured enough alertness to quickly wake up in case of danger and also provided enough rest and replenishment for his body.

...

The next morning, the vibration of his phone woke Alex up from his sleep.

He sat up, glanced around to make sure there was no danger, then opened today's emails and received today's unlimited supplies.

Cold medicine. frёeωebɳovel.com

This is very practical medical supplies.

After all, in such harsh conditions, many people have to sleep rough, and catching a cold and fever is quite common.

If not treated promptly, it can be quite dangerous.

Alex pushed Mia beside him.

Alex walked to the balcony, took out the binoculars, and looked at the situation on the street.

The situation on the street was very calm. At a glance, there were basically few zombies to be seen.

However, Alex was not an ordinary person and would not be deceived by the illusion in front of him.

Although he couldn't see many zombies now, he had painful lessons in this regard.

At first, Alex and Mia were walking on the main street.

Although those cunning zombies don't like the intense sunlight, it doesn't mean they fear it.

Once they spot a living target on the street, they will still crazily rush towards it.

In the end, Alex and Mia had to hide in the nearby residential building to escape the disaster.

Mia rubbed her sleepy eyes, looked at Alex's back with a full face of grievance, and muttered, "Such a blockhead! Doesn't understand how to cherish the precious!"

Alex heard Mia's muttering and smiled.

"Alright, when we get to our destination, I'll let you sleep your fill!"

Mia blushed.

Let me sleep my fill?

Alex didn't realize the ambiguity in his words and continued, "I'm not hiding anything from you. This time, I plan to head to the suburbs."

"Compared to the urban area, the population density in the suburbs is a bit smaller! I know there is a villa area there, where the population density of those wealthy districts is very low, so naturally, there won't be many zombies!"

"So, finding a villa there as a long-term safe refuge, at least the living standards will be much better, at least much better than a small supermarket."

Mia pouted and muttered, "The current living standards aren't that great anyway!"

Alex chuckled helplessly.

"This is heading towards a better life. Alright, stop complaining, let's set off after breakfast."

They continued to advance cautiously, finding a safe place to rest at night.

The next morning, they woke up and, as usual, checked their emails.

The next moment, Alex's face suddenly became very unpleasant.

"Damn it, system, are you kidding me?"

Alex looked at the new endless supply of cotton in his backpack, his face full of confusion.

"What's the use of cotton? I really... can't eat or drink it. Do they expect me to use it to wrap up bodies when I kick the bucket?" Alex thought.

"What's wrong?"

Mia had just woken up and, seeing Alex's changing expression, couldn't help but ask in confusion.

Alex shook his head.

The system gave him cotton, although it's an endless supply, but honestly, it's even worse than useless.

Alex really doubted if the system had a malicious sense of humor, specifically coming up with this gimmick to prank him.

It's disgusting, and it's placed at the top of the backpack.

But Alex didn't care, just leave it like this for now.

"It's nothing..."

Alex shook his head and didn't pay any attention to it.

But there was still some disappointment in his heart.

He thought he might get some medical supplies, after all, there was still a doctor with him. If he could get some super precious items like medical alcohol, it would be very reassuring for survival in the apocalypse.

...

The sky was densely covered with dark clouds, faint thunder rumbling, and occasional gusts of wind seemed to indicate the arrival of bad weather.

The oppressive feeling brought by the dark clouds made Alex more alert than ever before.

After all, he and Mia were now heading to the villa area, and no one knew how many zombies would be there, or how many malicious people there might be.

Mia followed behind Alex, looking at the dark clouds in the sky, and said with some worry, "Alex, it seems like it's going to rain, do we have umbrellas? In this kind of environment, if we catch a cold, the consequences would be unimaginable."

Alex held a pistol in his hand and walked ahead to scout.

Upon hearing Mia's words, he stopped and turned around, saying, "We don't have umbrellas, but if you're afraid of catching a cold, that's good. I have plenty of cold medicine here, more than enough."
