The whole nation is trying to survive on the cable car; I'm choosing one of three options at ea

[Disassemble the "Household Refrigerator"? Disassembly will take 5 minutes. Upon disassembly, you will obtain the following materials: Iron Ingot x1, Refrigeration Component x1, and several Copper Wires.]

Su Mu's eyes lit up.

Refrigeration components?

This thing might be useful. Maybe it can be used on cable cars in the future, like as a simple refrigerator or something.

He chose to confirm without hesitation.

Five minutes later, the refrigerator vanished in a faint glow, replaced by...

[Received: Iron Ingot x1]

[Received: Refrigeration Component ×1]

[Received: Copper Wire x3]

Su Mu looked at the three extra items in his hand.

An iron ingot, about the size of a palm. A refrigeration element, a palm-sized metal block with several interfaces on its surface, resembling some kind of mechanical part. Copper wire, thin strands about three fingers long, coiled into a ball.

Neither of them is heavy.

Su Mu put them away and turned to leave the kitchen.

Next is the storage room.

Inside were piles of random things... old newspapers, empty cardboard boxes, a few plastic basins, and a broken broom.

Su Mu flipped through it but found nothing.

Finally, he looked at the zombie.

We were so focused on searching the house that we didn't search the body yet.

Su Mu crouched down and began to search the zombie's body.

He pulled something out of his pajama pocket.

Mobile phone.

A Huawei phone, the screen is cracked, but the body is intact. The back is stained with black blood, and there are dried fingerprints on the buttons.

Su Mu pressed the power button.

no response.

out of battery?

No, this phone looks like it mutated before it fell; it should still have power.

He pressed and held the power button.

The screen lit up briefly, the Huawei logo appeared, and then...

Please enter your password.

Su Mu frowned.

password.

He didn't know the password.

Moreover, the zombie's original owner must be dead. Even if we knew the password, we couldn't ask.

Su Mu thought for a moment and then clicked on [Decompose].

[Disassemble the "Huawei Phone (Damaged)"? Disassembly will take 30 seconds. Materials obtained upon disassembly include: Snapdragon chip x1, battery block x1, camera module x1, speaker x1, and several aluminum alloy pieces.]

Su Mu: "..."

Snapdragon chip?

This thing can be broken down?

He was speechless for a moment, but after hesitating for a while, he still chose to confirm.

Thirty seconds later.

[Received: Snapdragon chip x1]

[Received: Battery Block ×1]

[Received: Camera Module ×1]

[Received: Speaker x1]

[Received: Aluminum Alloy x1]

Su Mu looked at the scattered small parts in his hand.

The chip, about the size of a fingernail, is marked "Snapdragon 8 Gen3". The battery is a thin sheet, labeled with a capacity of 5000mAh. The camera module is a small piece of glass and metal. The speaker is a metal disc about the size of a soybean.

What's the use of these things?

Su Mu couldn't figure it out.

But his intuition told him that if it could be disassembled, it must be useful in the future. Perhaps it was related to the synthesis of cable cars, or some special equipment required these precision parts.

Keep it.

Su Mu carefully put the parts away and placed them in his backpack.

Then he stood up and took one last look at the room.

almost.

The food was collected, the refrigerator was decomposed, and the body was searched.

Time to move on to the next place.

Su Mu stepped outside and glanced at the street.

The zombies were still wandering around in the same spot, unaware of the commotion.

He breathed a sigh of relief and continued to probe towards the next house.

......

For the next few hours, Su Mu repeated the same process.

Find a closed house → dismantle the door → enter cautiously → search the first floor → proceed cautiously upstairs → kill zombies (if any) → search the entire house → dismantle the appliances → leave.

Most houses have zombies.

Some families of three were all mutated, some had only one, and some were completely empty... They may have escaped before the mutation, or they may have wandered elsewhere after the mutation.

The Shetland Sheepdog accepted everything without question.

Each zombie gives 0.1 experience points; even a mosquito's leg is still meat.

In addition, each zombie drops a wooden box, which randomly contains food, water, iron ingots, glass essence, and occasionally special items.

Although the probability is low, the sheer number of them makes up for it.

After searching more than a dozen rooms, Su Mu finally found what he had been waiting for in a bedside table drawer...

Gray treasure chest.

It was about the size of a palm, dusty and inconspicuous, lying there under a few old magazines and a pile of odds and ends.

Su Mu's eyes lit up, and he quickly stepped forward and opened it.

[Received: 1 bottle of mineral water]

[Received: Iron Ingot x2]

That's it?

Su Mu was somewhat disappointed.

There were no blueprints, no special items, and no equipment.

But then I thought, the gray treasure chest is the lowest tier anyway, so getting iron ingots is already pretty good. After all, iron ingots are the core material for upgrading the cable car, and you might have to kill seven or eight monsters to get two iron ingots if you're unlucky.

Of course, this also made him realize more deeply just how monstrous the [Daily Intelligence] talent is.

Based on the information he gathered from the group chat, most of the treasure chests that had been opened were gray chests. Only a few exceptionally lucky people had encountered white chests. As for bronze chests, which were higher than white, he hadn't heard of anyone opening any.

Without intelligence guidance, he would never have been able to find the bronze and silver treasure chests on the first day, let alone have the equipment and supplies he has now.

Intelligence is always the most valuable thing.

Su Mu carefully put away the iron ingots and continued searching the next house.

After searching several more houses, he found a small building that was clearly better renovated.

Behind the roller shutter door lies a spacious living room. It features a leather sofa, a marble coffee table, an LCD TV on the wall, and a standing air conditioner in the corner.

As usual, Su Mu searched the first floor first.

In the kitchen, the refrigerator was bigger than the one in the previous house; it had two doors.

Upon opening it...

It was packed full.

But all he had were frozen meat, frozen fish, frozen shrimp, frozen dumplings, and frozen glutinous rice balls. Somewhat helplessly, he could only dismantle the refrigerator.

[Received: Iron Ingot x2]

[Received: Refrigeration Component ×2]

[Received: Copper Wire x5]

nice one.

Next is the living room.

LCD TV?

break down.

[Received: Display Screen ×1]

[Received: Several chips]

[Received: Speaker x2]

[Received: Aluminum Alloy x2]

A standing air conditioner?

break down.

[Received: Iron Ingot x2]

[Received: Refrigeration Component ×1]

[Received: 1 Motor]

[Received: Copper Wire x3]

computer?

break down.

[Received: RTX 5060 graphics card ×1]

[Received: CPU x1]

[Received: Motherboard x1]

[Received: 2 memory sticks]

[Received: Hard Drive x1]

[Received: Power Supply x1]

[Received: Aluminum Alloy x2]

Su Mu looked at the pile of extra parts in his hand and his lips twitched.

5060 graphics card?

What use is this thing in a game? Does it mean we'll be able to play games on cable cars in the future?

However, he still carefully put the graphics card away.

After all, anything that can be broken down must have some use. Even if it's not needed now, it might be in the future. Besides, he really doesn't have anything better to store right now.

Second-floor bedroom.

A zombie was wandering around the room.

Su Mu finished the job with one axe stroke and found the box and the phone.

The phone is an Apple.

break down.

[Received: A17Pro chip ×1]

[Received: Battery Block ×1]

[Received: Camera Module ×1]

[Received: Speaker x1]

[Received: Titanium Alloy x1]

Titanium alloy?

Su Mu looked at the silvery-white metal, which was much heavier than aluminum alloy and felt better in his hand.

This stuff should be more advanced than aluminum alloy.

keep it.

Finally, Su Mu looked at something on the bedside table...

flashlight.

It has a black plastic casing, a metal head, and several batteries placed next to it.

Su Mu picked it up and tried it.

It can still light up.

The strong light can illuminate a distance of more than ten meters.

His eyes lit up.

flashlight!

This thing is not very useful during the day, but at night, especially in the kind of thick fog where you can't see your hand in front of your face, it is an absolute lifesaver.

If we had had a flashlight, we might have been able to see what those monstrous bats looked like when they crashed into the cable car last night, and maybe even aim a pistol at them.

Without hesitation, Su Mu put the flashlight and the batteries into his backpack.

Then I searched for other rooms.

They found two more flashlights and several packs of batteries.

Take them all.
