Freeze the entire population, activate my Superman system?

"Brother Shuang, open the door, it's Daddy."

Awakened by a series of banging on the door, Ling Shuang looked sleepily at her childhood friend outside the door, whose expression was serious.

"It's Sunday today, it's only 1 p.m., I'm taking a nap."

Friend, can you give me some air?

Zhang Mu, standing outside, looked utterly shocked.

"Brother Shuang, our whole neighborhood's been transported to another era, what's the point of sleeping anymore?!"

He showed Ling Shuang the large and small bags, bottles and jars he had brought behind him.

He then glanced at Ling Shuang suspiciously.

"Hey kid, you don't actually have a system, do you?"

Seeing her childhood friend looking her up and down, Ling Shuang's eyes suddenly cleared.

"Godfather, come in and we'll talk in detail."

Zhang Mu is a doctor at a nearby hospital. He's on duty today, and there's no reason for him not to go to work. He's just teasing himself.

Bread, fried chicken, rice, seasonings...

Ling Shuang helped with the moving, while Zhang Mu kept muttering to himself.

"In 29 days, this safe zone in our community will be unsealed, and the temperature will gradually drop to the same level as the unsafe zone."

While taking stock of her own supplies, Ling Shuang discovered that the piped gas and water and electricity had indeed been cut off.

food:

1. Two 20-pound bags of rice, a bucket of soaking rice cakes, and vegetables such as rapeseed and pumpkin grown in the small yard.

2. Yesterday, Dr. Zhang ordered a bucket of Crazy Thursday Original Recipe Chicken and two bags of whole wheat bread.

3. I ate six boxes of wedding candy that I brought back from the banquet last month, which were basically beef jerky, wedding candy, and chocolate.

4. Seven or eight bags of frozen dumplings in the freezer have started to thaw.

Water resources: 6 x 12 cans of Coca-Cola, Pepsi, 4 cans of Red Bull, 2 x 2 liters of drinking water, and ice cut from the freezer.

Weapons: A solid alloy rod cosplaying as Black Wukong, a set of kitchen knives, and a scalpel that Dr. Zhang usually uses for practice.

Medicines: a few baskets of various anti-inflammatory and hormone drugs, as well as bandages and medical alcohol.

After tallying up their joint assets, Ling Shuang stared at the living room ceiling and sighed deeply.

"Dr. Zhang, we are a bit poor, but I suddenly thought of some good news."

His voice paused.

"I don't have to pay back the millions of dollars in mortgage payments anymore!"

The bank's account manager must be extremely anxious.

However, a plaintive voice came from beside her.

"Brother Shuang, I paid in full..."

Ling Shuang paused for a moment, patted Zhang Mu on the shoulder, and tried to laugh but forced herself to hold it back.

"There are already people with systems in place, so it's not a big problem."

"Come... Your Excellency Lord Zhang, tell me about the current situation in the community."

Listening to Zhang Mu's rambling explanation, Ling Shuang took out her notebook, which had 98% battery remaining, from the study and began drawing a mind map using the Axure software.

First, what is currently visible is the entire Longmaofu residential area, including the row houses where I am located and the high-rise area behind, as well as the artificial lake surrounding the community.

Secondly, my childhood friend Dr. Zhang activated a lord system, as did his neighbor, Wang, who works at the gym. Both systems display territory attribute panels, but I don't have one.

Third, the community is currently within the safe zone. The foreseeable type of disaster from the outside world is a severe winter. Once the 29-day protection period is over, the temperature will plummet.

Fourth, the community branch of the Public Security Bureau has begun to be temporarily established, with self-organized property management personnel and statistics staff, but it has not yet reached the row houses area.

Ling Shuang pointed to the progress bar chart on the computer and continued,

"We only have 29 days. If you are sure you want to use my terraced house as your property, we need to work backwards from the deadline."

Their survival supplies were also compiled into an ECXEL appendix following the Gantt chart.

Ling Shuang then added,

"As for the sustainability of survival supplies, we need to observe the actual consumption over the next few days and then use AI to assess it. I have deployed a system locally, but charging is a hassle."

Zhang Mu looked at Ling Shuang with admiration.

"I knew I'd come to you first when I had a problem; it's always the right thing to do."

But Ling Shuang suddenly felt a headache.

Why doesn't he have a system?

Noticing Ling Shuang's anxiety, Zhang Mu feigned nonchalance and said...

What's mine is yours.

"When father and son are of one mind, their strength can break even metal!"

"I...your father..."

Just then, a loud noise interrupted their conversation.

The glass canopy over the outdoor courtyard was shattered!

Ling Shuang casually picked up the alloy rod beside her, while Zhang Mu followed behind, grumbling and cursing, carrying two kitchen knives.

"Someone stole vegetables on the very first day?"

But to their surprise,

It wasn't the neighbors stealing vegetables.

In the middle of the courtyard,

It was an unusually large... crow?

It frantically pecked at the pumpkins in the field.

Seemingly driven mad by hunger, it continued to eat even as it saw two humans approaching.

Ling Shuang gripped the alloy staff tightly, suddenly sprang up, and slammed it down hard on the head!

Just as the mutated crow was flapping its wings and trying to get up to fight back, Ling Shuang's heavy club had already arrived.

Bang!

The mutated crow was hit by a single blow, its brains splattering everywhere and flowing out continuously.

However, to Ling Shuang's surprise, a white crystal emerged from the crow's corpse.

It flew straight into Ling Shuang's left palm!

"The Frost Raven has been defeated; the Superman System has been activated."

"Currently enhanced part: Left hand (1/5): First-tier ability not activated."

The alloy rod was specially made and weighted, and Ling Shuang was surprised to find that it felt much lighter in her hand.

Zhang Mu stared blankly at Ling Shuang, pointing directly at his left hand.

"Brother Shuang, an alien parasite has gotten inside!"

Ling Shuang was speechless. She picked up the nearly half-meter-long corpse of the mutated crow and tossed it to Zhang Mu.

"You look like a parasite to me; this is some kind of cheat code that's biting me."

He continued,

"Go to your specialty and dissect this fat crow."

Remember to clean the internal organs thoroughly and rub them with salt; they'll keep for quite a while.

Zhang Mu spat.

"I'm a doctor, okay? Cooking ingredients is purely a personal hobby."

Then, Ling Shuang told Zhang Mu about the existence of the Superman System.

The latter was utterly devastated and indignant.

"I want to be Superman, not a hoarder lord!"

Ling Shuang covered the glass canopy with a black cloth by herself and said,

"Let's go catch a fish in the artificial lake later. It should have mutated too. You can try it then."

Zhang Mu glanced at the two kitchen knives in his hand, hid them behind his back, and gave an embarrassed smile.

"The doctor's hands are my life; what if he bites off my finger?"

"Brother Shuang, catch the fish and tie it up, I'll poke it."

Ling Shuang finished covering up the courtyard, and just then Zhang Mu finished dealing with the mutated crows.

After being reminded by Ling Shuang, he put on the huge crow's head.

After locking the small gate to the courtyard, the two headed straight for the community property management hall.

Halfway there, Zhang Mu looked somewhat anxious.

"Brother Shuang, the Public Security Bureau branch has been established. What if they confiscate our supplies?"

"Going there now would be like walking into a trap!"

At that moment, Ling Shuang was observing the changes in the greenery in the community when she casually remarked,

"The 'iron rice bowl' system won't work; there are plenty of smart people in our neighborhood."

We're using our advantages to get some armor and supplies.

Zhang Mu stared at him, dumbfounded.

"What advantages do we have? We only have two houses in our lifetime, and we're going to live them off here."

Ling Shuang raised an eyebrow at him.

"Isn't that because of you, young and energetic attending physician?"

In the end times,

This is a 99.9% rare item!

Zhang Mu felt a chill run down his spine as Ling Shuang gave him a meaningful once-over.

This sudden change in tone made him feel like he was about to be used in a shady deal, and he said, on the verge of tears,

"Brother Shuang, I perform, I don't sell my body."

Who knows?

"Isn't being a doctor also a service industry?"
