Transcending Worlds: I Have an Invincible Shelter
Chapter 3: Sudden Wealth
A few seconds later, the multicolored black light disappeared.
Su Yuyang touched the back of his head in disbelief. It didn't hurt anymore!
The shortness of breath and weakness he had suffered from years of staying up late and his terminal illness were now completely gone, and his limbs and bones were filled with a strength even greater than before he fell ill.
[System Notification: First-tier Blood Energy Crystal energy has been absorbed. The spread of host cancer cells has been contained, and damaged organs have undergone initial repair.]
[Current lifespan has been extended by 30 days.]
[Note: Continued absorption of higher-order and more source crystal cores can completely cure the incurable disease and complete genetic evolution!]
"30 days..."
Su Yuyang clenched his fists tightly, his eyes lighting up.
This means he doesn't have to die immediately. It also means that as long as he continues to kill monsters and collect source crystals in the apocalypse, he can live on completely and even become a superman!
"Bang!"
The warehouse's half-closed iron door was suddenly kicked open.
Wang Jian, the project team leader, walked in with a look of impatience, his mouth tucked under his arm.
"Su Yuyang! Are you fucking dead? It's been almost an hour, how many computers have you fixed by now?"
I see you didn't want your base salary from last month...
Wang Jian's cursing stopped abruptly.
Because he saw that Su Yuyang was not repairing computers, but standing upright in the center of the warehouse.
What terrified him even more was Su Yuyang's gaze.
If Su Yuyang before was a cow or horse whose spine was bent by life and who could be beaten and scolded by everyone.
At this moment, Su Yuyang turned his head and his eyes were cold and sharp!
Stared at like that, Wang Jian's entire body of fat trembled violently, and he involuntarily took half a step back, his back hitting the door.
"What...what do you want? I'm warning you, this is a company!"
Wang Jian shouted, his voice sharp but his tone weak, cold sweat dripping down his forehead.
Looking at the former high-and-mighty scab who used to trample on his dignity at will, Su Yuyang suddenly found it somewhat amusing.
With the resources of the post-apocalyptic wasteland, he will possess incredible wealth, and Wang Jiankou is like a bug that can be crushed at any moment.
Arguing with him would be beneath me.
Su Yuyang didn't say a word, but coldly withdrew his gaze, put the ring-shaped gold ornament into his pocket, and walked straight towards the warehouse door.
"Get out of here."
Reaching the door, Su Yuyang uttered two words.
Wang Jian felt an invisible pressure coming at him, and he obediently turned his body to the side.
Only when Su Yuyang's figure completely disappeared at the end of the corridor did Wang Jian suddenly come to his senses, and angrily cursed at the empty corridor.
"You've gone too far! Su Yuyang, you won't get a single penny of your three thousand yuan base salary!"
I'll go back and have HR blacklist you in the industry. Let's see how long you can be so arrogant!
"Still looking for a new job? Go eat shit!"
……
After leaving the company, Su Yuyang did not go home, but took a taxi directly to an old pedestrian street in the JB district.
This area is a mixed bag, with many underground pawnshops advertising high prices for buying back gold jewelry.
Su Yuyang chose an inconspicuous shop that didn't even have security cameras and went inside.
"Boss, receive the goods."
Su Yuyang walked to the counter and slammed the ring-shaped gold ornament directly onto the glass counter.
The bald boss behind the glass counter was smoking. He glanced at Su Yuyang's shabby clothes, then looked at the old-fashioned, even somewhat blackened, ring-shaped gold jewelry, and a sly glint flashed in his eyes.
"Hey bro, this isn't good quality, it's all dirty. Could it be some dubious stuff?"
The bald boss picked up the gold ring and weighed it in his hand. "It does weigh about 120 grams, but its purity is hard to say."
Okay, since you need the money urgently, here's a fixed price: 20,000 yuan. I'll take the risk and buy it.
The current domestic gold price is approaching 1056.72 yuan per gram, and 120 grams can sell for at least 120,000 yuan. This shopkeeper immediately offered a discount of 100,000 yuan.
In the past, Su Yuyang might have tried to bargain in a humble manner.
But now, he simply reached out expressionlessly and grabbed the bald boss's fleshy wrist.
After absorbing the first-tier blood energy crystal, Su Yuyang's power became astonishing.
The bald boss felt as if his wrists were being clamped tightly by iron clamps, and his bones were about to break.
"I don't have time to waste with you."
Su Yuyang leaned forward slightly, his sinister eyes coldly fixed on the bald boss.
"Based on today's gold recycling price, converted to a round number, it's 120,000. If it's even a penny less, I'll just sell it to another store. You won't earn a single cent."
Under this genuinely fierce aura, the bald boss instantly cowered.
Having spent many years in Jiangbei, he knew exactly who the pushovers were and who the truly ruthless people were.
"Here you go! I'll give it to you! Big brother, let go!"
Five minutes later.
Su Yuyang walked out of the pawnshop holding a black plastic bag, inside which were neatly stacked 120,000 yuan in cash.
Feeling the weight of the plastic bag, Su Yuyang looked up at the sunlight and finally smiled.
He spent less than three minutes in the apocalypse, but that was equivalent to the life-and-death struggle he had put in for the past six months!
This is just one gold ring; there's another gold shop waiting for him there.
In that desolate city after the apocalypse, Su Yuyang could hardly imagine how many gold shops there would be!
But he wasn't blinded by his sudden wealth.
He knew very well that the apocalypse contained gold, but also mutated monsters.
To establish himself in that world, and even expand the safe zone, he needs absolute hard currency, food and supplies, and more importantly, weapons!
In the apocalypse, a loaf of bread can be exchanged for a life, and a bottle of pure water can make someone hand over all their gold and silver treasures!
If he had enough firearms, he could organize a massive mercenary army.
Su Yuyang turned around and flagged down a green taxi.
"Driver, go to the largest comprehensive agricultural wholesale market in the south of the city."
Sitting in the back seat, Su Yuyang looked at the city street scenes rushing past the window and began to plan for the future.
Wang Jiankou, didn't you deduct three thousand yuan from my base salary?
When I come back, I will use my power to trample your dignity and that lousy company under my feet!
Chengnan Comprehensive Agricultural Trade Market, Zhejiang East City.
This is the largest distribution center for goods in the suburbs, bustling with people and trucks shuttling back and forth.
Su Yuyang walked into an outdoor safety equipment store and directly took out thirty 100-yuan bills.
"Boss, get me the largest capacity and best quality tactical military backpack, a stab-proof vest, and a pair of thick tactical boots."
Then, his gaze fell on a heavy machete in the corner.
"This knife, has it been sharpened?"
The boss was a middle-aged man. He glanced at Su Yuyang's cold eyes and the cash on the table, and smiled knowingly.
"Genuine manganese steel forging, chopping bones is as easy as cutting tofu, take it for five hundred."
Ten minutes later, a completely refreshed Su Yuyang walked out of the workwear store.
Without stopping, he turned around and went into the nearby grain, oil and non-staple food wholesale area.
"Ten bottles of mineral water, please!"
"A whole case each of compressed biscuits, high-calorie chocolate, and multivitamins!"
"Oh, and give me two large plastic bags full of that braised pork flavored self-heating rice and self-heating hot pot!"
Su Yuyang spent money like water. In less than half an hour, he spent more than 9,000 yuan, enough to buy the strategic materials he needed for half a month.
In this peaceful era, nine thousand dollars might only be enough to treat someone to a meal at a high-end restaurant, but in the apocalypse, the supplies that nine thousand dollars can buy are enough to make people sell their souls!
Lacking any storage space, Su Yuyang crammed all his supplies into a tactical backpack that was as tall as a person, while also carrying two large bags of bottled water and self-heating food.
After absorbing the first-tier blood energy crystal, he now felt no strain at all while lifting this heavy object weighing over a hundred pounds.
To avoid surveillance, Su Yuyang walked along the small road near the farmers' market towards the suburbs, taking more than an hour to gradually approach the mountains.
To outsiders, Su Yuyang appeared to be going on a hiking trip to the countryside.
After turning a corner into a forest path, Su Yuyang leaped up to a high point in the treetop, hiding in a blind spot below, and set up a video surveillance camera.
He needs to know whether his real self will also disappear when he goes to the wasteland.
We can learn more by monitoring the video footage.
Arriving below the monitor, Su Yuyang took a deep breath and mentally communicated with the colorful black metal cards.
"System, activate the teleportation!"
[Ding! The interdimensional travel portal has been activated. Destination: Apocalypse-07 Wasteland.]
[Countdown: 3, 2, 1...]
The dazzling light instantly engulfed Su Yuyang.
……
"boom!"
After the familiar feeling of weightlessness, Su Yuyang's feet once again stepped onto the stone-paved road.
A gray-yellow sky, a pervasive gray smog, and ruined buildings.
[Ding! You have arrived at the target world.]
[WARNING: High concentrations of mutant griseofulvin are present in the air.]
[Lv1 Absolute Safe Zone has been deployed, granting immunity to all negative status effects.]
As the system notification sounded, the 10-square-meter transparent, invincible light shield centered on Su Yuyang lit up again, completely isolating the deadly mutated gray-yellow smog from the outside world.
