Liang Chen didn't hesitate for a moment: "Open."

"Newbie Gift Pack: Infinite Storage Space, permanently bound to host."

Liang Chen was worrying about how to store supplies when the system gave him infinite space.

He tried putting large barrels of water and some furniture inside.

Liang Chen could feel that the storage space was truly infinite.

Furthermore, aside from massive structures like buildings that couldn't be collected, large items like refrigerators and sofas posed no difficulty.

It only took a thought, and it would be done in an instant.

As for other functions, further experimentation was needed.

"There are still 2 items left; I need to carefully decide what to synthesize."

"The most urgent task is how to deal with the coming apocalypse."

"Currently, there are four most crucial matters."

"First, I need to stockpile as many supplies as possible, what if the system unbinds one day?"

Liang Chen had read many novels in his previous life; while system unbinding was rare, it did happen occasionally.

Therefore, he had to be fully prepared; in apocalyptic survival, prudence always came first.

"To live comfortably, the more abundant the supplies, the better."

"Second, I must build a safe house."

"Third, take revenge on those enemies from my previous life."

"The last thing is to improve the so-called 'apocalyptic comfort level.' Although the system didn't give many hints, as long as I try to keep myself physically and mentally happy, it should be enough, right?"

The most urgent matter was still supplies.

Regarding supplies, if he hadn't awakened the system and storage space, Liang Chen would definitely have found it difficult.

But now, the supply problem was, for him, the easiest to solve.

"In 28 days, the Huaguo official will announce the news of global warming.

Food, water, and other supplies will be frantically snatched up.

Even if no one knows that extreme cold weather will arrive, the country will fall into chaos.

So everything must be completed within 28 days!"

After repeated deliberation, Liang Chen formulated a detailed action plan.

Before leaving, Liang Chen picked up the blind cane by the door and put on his sunglasses.

Now everyone in the community thought he was blind, which was a good thing for Liang Chen.

A blind person wouldn't attract too much attention and could also see some people's true colors.

Stepping out of the building, Liang Chen saw a pink sports car had just parked, and a young woman got out of the car.

The woman was wearing a low-cut long dress of excellent quality, and her aloof demeanor would definitely attract countless men's gazes.

This woman was Lu Jin Xuan, the manipulative woman whom Liang Chen had pursued with his true feelings, only for her to poison him in return, ultimately killing him and selling him to a neighbor.

"It seems she got rich by selling my things!"

Liang Chen came from an ordinary middle-class family; after his parents passed away, they left behind some gold, silver, and jade items, worth about eight or nine hundred thousand.

And a million in savings, of which over three hundred thousand had already been transferred to Lu Jin Xuan.

"I really was a qualified simp," Liang Chen couldn't help but inwardly curse.

Even though Liang Chen had already killed her tens of thousands of times in his mind, he knew it wasn't time to show his hand yet.

If he acted suddenly now, even if he killed Lu Jin Xuan, he himself would be taken away by the police.

He would never take such a risk in this life.

Safety was the prerequisite for all of Liang Chen's actions.

Moreover, he would never let Lu Jin Xuan die easily; he wanted to see her suffer endless torment and slowly die in despair.

Liang Chen decided to send her away first, naturally for the purpose of building a safe house.

"Oh, Liang Chen, why did you come out by yourself? I'd be heartbroken if you fell."

Lu Jin Xuan's lips curved into a sneer, but her words were full of concern.

Liang Chen had to admit, this woman was definitely an Oscar-winning actress among manipulative women.

Adjusting his sunglasses, Liang Chen spoke to the empty space beside her:

"Oh, you don't need to come anymore," Liang Chen said expressionlessly.

Lu Jin Xuan was visibly stunned: "What did you say?"

"I said from now on, you go your merry way, and I'll cross my own bridge; we will have no more dealings.

Also, don't think I don't know that you sold my things; I'm giving you three days to return them, plus the three hundred thousand I transferred to you, otherwise I'll call the police."

Lu Jin Xuan stared at Liang Chen in disbelief, fear showing in her eyes.

"You... your eyes are better?"

"None of your business?"

Liang Chen turned and left immediately after speaking.

Only when she saw Liang Chen still using his cane to probe the way did Lu Jin Xuan calm down slightly.

"Liang Chen, did you hear something? Let me explain."

"Remember what I said, return everything within three days, otherwise you can explain it to the police."

Lu Jin Xuan couldn't believe her ears; Liang Chen had always been her most loyal simp, never suspecting her even when she poisoned him, so how could he suddenly change?

She absolutely couldn't let Liang Chen call the police; she had secretly sold his family's property and poisoned him to blind him.

If the police got involved, she'd probably spend the rest of her life in prison.

Once she had enough money, she still wanted to study and settle in Pretty Country; she absolutely couldn't stumble because of Liang Chen.

Thinking of this, Lu Jin Xuan suddenly felt a wave of injustice; she, a dignified campus belle, was actually being reprimanded like this by a loser like Liang Chen.

"Liang Chen, don't you dare regret this! Do you know how many people want to be with me?"

"None of my business, remember, three days!"

"Liang Chen, you just wait!"

Looking at Liang Chen's retreating back, Lu Jin Xuan clenched her pink fists, stomping her feet in anger!

She dared not ignore Liang Chen's warning, but the three hundred thousand had long been spent, and most of the money from selling his things was also gone; besides the sports car, she had bought many cosmetics and bags.

Lu Jin Xuan pulled out her phone, found the "Simps" group, and started sending messages.

She had many fish in her pond; at a critical moment, gathering a few hundred thousand was not a problem.

It was nothing more than having dinner with them separately and acting a bit cute; her charm could create value.

"Liang Chen, I will definitely make you regret what you said today; by then, even if you kneel and beg me, I won't give you another chance to pursue me!"

Lu Jin Xuan looked at her constantly messaging phone screen and regained her usual confidence and composure.

Having dealt with Lu Jin Xuan, Liang Chen continued tapping the ground with his cane, carefully walking out of the community.

Liang Chen's home, in Jinxiu Tiancheng Community, was a mixed development of villas and high-rise buildings.

Liang Chen lived in a high-rise, next to dozens of townhouses, where all the wealthy people of Yangjiang City resided.

Passing by the community square, Liang Chen saw many neighbors he had known for years.

Before he lost his sight, these people were incredibly warm to him.

Now, when they saw Liang Chen approaching, not a single one greeted him.

Liang Chen didn't care; in his previous life, he had already seen through these people's true colors.

After the apocalypse arrived, most of the people here would die, and even if they miraculously survived, Liang Chen would never let them have an easy time.

What if seeing them suffer could also improve his comfort level?

As he neared the community gate, an old woman in a red and green outfit blocked Liang Chen's path.

This person was Wang Xiulan, notorious for taking advantage of her age; she considered it a loss if she didn't gain something every time she went out.

"Liang Chen, wait, I'm your Wang Dama."

"Oh? Wang Dama, is something wrong?"

"It's nothing big, don't you have two parking spaces? My son just bought a car last week, and parking spaces in our community are too expensive, so let's just park it in your space for now!"

Wang Xiulan's tone was matter-of-fact, and she even looked triumphantly at the other neighbors.

Liang Chen's parents, while alive, were kind and warm-hearted, and Wang Xiulan's family often took advantage of them.

But this time, to Wang Xiulan's surprise, Liang Chen no longer indulged her.

He remembered that it was Wang Xiulan who was the first to come to his door to buy his meat, and for some supplies, she groveled to Lu Jin Xuan, saying things like Liang Chen was a toad eating swan meat, and it was his blessing to be sold by Lu Jin Xuan, and so on.

"Of course, we're old neighbors, I'll give you a 20% discount, two thousand a month rent."

After hearing the first half of the sentence, Wang Xiulan's triumphant smile had just blossomed when she was almost choked by Liang Chen's latter half.

"Liang Chen, are you kidding Dama? We're old neighbors, talking about money hurts feelings!"

Liang Chen sneered:

"Talking about feelings hurts money, Wang Dama. A few years ago, you said your son had just started working, and commuting was inconvenient, so you borrowed an eight-thousand-yuan bicycle from me.

Now that your son has bought a car, please return that bicycle to me first."

At the mention of returning the bicycle, Wang Xiulan's face instantly turned pale.

She had sold that bike long ago, and even if she hadn't, given her personality, she wouldn't have returned it to Liang Chen:

"What... what bicycle? I'm talking about the parking space. You wouldn't even be willing to help with such a small favor, would you?"

"Return the bike first, then pay the rent, and you can use the parking space."

Wang Xiulan put one hand on her hip and pointed at Liang Chen, about to erupt, but was interrupted by Liang Chen.

"Wang Dama, are you going to say again that you're an elder, and we young people should respect our elders and let you have your way?

You might have forgotten, but I'm blind now. If you throw a tantrum again, I'll report you to the Disabled Persons' Federation and the neighborhood committee, and then I'll cause trouble at your son's workplace.

We're both vulnerable groups, who's afraid of whom?"

After Liang Chen finished speaking, he turned and left. The onlookers were all somewhat surprised; was this still the Liang Chen who always helped out?

"He's already blind, why is he still occupying the parking space? Young people nowadays are too selfish."

"I remember your husband's promotion, wasn't Liang Chen's father the one who helped him back then?"

"Don't talk nonsense! My husband's promotion was because he was capable, what does it have to do with anyone else!"

...

Looking at these people, Liang Chen recalled his experience of being mutilated and dismembered in his previous life.

At that time, these neighbors who had received favors from his family were all devils who ate his flesh and drank his blood!

"Let you enjoy your last moments of happiness; when the apocalypse arrives, I hope you'll still be in the mood to gossip."

Stepping out of the community, Liang Chen took off his sunglasses and took a taxi directly to the suburbs.

Half an hour later.

Liang Chen looked at the incredibly vast complex of buildings before him, slightly lost in thought.

This was the largest storage base in South China—the South China Yangjiang Storage Park.

Although Yangjiang City was not a first-tier city, it had a good geographical location, convenient transportation, and low land prices.

Many well-known domestic and international enterprises, including Walmart, Huarun, and 711, chose to build warehouses here.

Liang Chen touched the ID card in his pocket and walked towards the gate of the storage base.

To understand the internal security situation of the storage base, the best way was to apply directly to work there as a security guard.

A fortress is best broken from within.
