Seeing how busy Wei Yi and the others were, Shen Muyu felt embarrassed to ask them to cook again, so she went into the kitchen and made herself a simple meal.
Later, during the meal, I remembered that we were now in the safe zone, and Zhan Yi no longer needed to be on guard outside. So, I immediately put down my chopsticks and pulled Zhan Yi into the dimensional space as well.
Seeing Zhan Yi busy at work, Shen Muyu felt relieved and went back to eat her meal.
After two evolutions, Zhan Yi's intelligence is now almost indistinguishable from that of a human. With it around, it can share the work with Wei Yi, one in charge of the warehouse and the other in charge of the outside, which is perfect.
Amidst the rustling sounds of things being tidied up outside, Shen Muyu peacefully fell asleep with her hands clasped to her chest.
The next day, she got up very early again. Everything outside had already been put into storage. Shen Muyu jogged over to take a look and found that the warehouse was almost full.
The main reason is that the furniture takes up a lot of space, so Wei Yi and Zhan Yi didn't choose to pile it up. Instead, they used more than half of the space to set up a furniture store showroom.
Wei Yi even rearranged and reorganized different styles of furniture according to his knowledge, making each set very unique. If Shen Muyu wanted to change furniture later, he could just pick a set.
"It's my blessing to have you here!" Upon returning to the cabin and seeing Wei Yi carrying breakfast, Shen Muyu patted its shoulder and exclaimed in praise, followed by a string of compliments that made Wei Yi blush.
"Don't worry, with Wei Yi here, I will definitely take good care of your daily life." Although Wei Yi's mechanical face showed no expression, his tone was very firm, almost as if he were swearing with two fingers raised.
"Yes, I believe you, but you still need to take good care of yourself and get some rest." Shen Muyu nodded in satisfaction, then added with concern.
"As long as Viagra has enough energy, it doesn't need to rest, so you don't need to worry."
"Have your breakfast. There are still a few robots that haven't been repaired. I have to go now." With that, Wei Yi bowed slightly and left.
"What a perfect employee!" Shen Muyu smiled as he picked up the fried buns and soy milk from the table and returned to his car. He showed no shame whatsoever for manipulating a robot. What a wicked capitalist!
Today, Shen Muyu and her group did not advance directly inwards, but instead left the city from the outer ring road.
Yesterday, she learned from the survivors that there was a small base nearby that had been breached by zombies. Shen Muyu planned to go and see if she could pick up any leftovers, as she was currently short of weapons and ammunition.
The base wasn't far away; it only took a little over an hour to drive there. It was located on a plain, with a small river nearby that hadn't dried up.
According to the previous survivor, the water in this river flows from a spring and is one of the few drinkable water resources in the area, which is why they chose this place as their base.
Shen Muyu's car didn't get too close; it stopped before even seeing the base. If it got any closer, the zombies would smell the car and run towards it.
Shen Muyu planned to send Zhan Yi on this mission alone. Since it was an inanimate object, it wouldn't attract many zombies, and it would be much safer to go with them in this zombie horde than to go together.
After briefly scanning the situation inside with his mental energy, Shen Muyu told Zhan to get out of the car and head towards the destroyed base.
The base's walls were almost completely destroyed, but there were still quite a few usable cannons and other weapons buried inside. Zhan Yi rummaged around and threw them all into his backpack.
The base was in complete disarray, with zombies huddled in the shade. Despite Zhan Yi's picky behavior, only a few slightly intelligent high-level zombies came over and got a beating; the rest remained motionless.
Given Shen Muyu's current location, he couldn't fully survey the entire base. The latter part would have to be handled by Zhan Yi himself. However, based on yesterday's findings, he should be able to do it, so Shen Muyu waited quietly.
...
"Well, did you find the warehouse?" Shen Muyu immediately asked Zhan Yi in its ear with his mental power as Zhan Yi reappeared in his sight.
"We found it, but only a small portion of the items remain. There are very few guns and bullets; they must have all been moved away before," Zhan Yi said, pausing.
"It's alright, as long as we have them, come back." Shen Muyu had already expected this. Although oil-powered vehicles had long been phased out in this world, there were still some antique stock, not to mention the oil-powered military vehicles that the military couldn't phase out.
When the base is in danger, the higher-ups will definitely order a evacuation, especially since this is a plain. It shouldn't be difficult to sacrifice some people and break through another opening to get out.
This time, Zhan Yi brought almost all of Shen Muyu's acquired car cores with him. Only the red one and her own were left behind; the rest were packed full when they returned.
After all, artillery takes up a lot of space; almost one or two cannons can occupy an entire grid.
He told Xiao A to go back, while Shen Muyu took the car core back to the dimensional space and handed it over to Wei Yi.
Apart from the weapons found scattered along the way, all the other supplies were already categorized, and Wei Yi only needed to put them into the appropriate sections.
Shen Muyu built two more warehouses next to the previous one. One was specifically for storing weapons and the vehicles she had collected, while the other was for storing new miscellaneous supplies.
After returning, Shen Muyu saw an industrial park and a logistics transfer station on the map in the brick.
Unfortunately, most of the items in the industrial park had already been cleared out, but there were still many packages stuck at the logistics transfer station. Shen Muyu packed them all back, so that they could be used as a blind box entertainment activity when he got bored.
Following the new route, they found many more piles of supplies on the land of the dimensional space, but the most surprising thing was the many robots of various shapes and sizes, which Shen Muyu had brought back from an exhibition.
The shape and quality couldn't compare to the ones in the lab before. Many of them were even non-humanoid robots without limbs, only good for guiding and delivering food. But Shen Muyu wasn't picky; he could always find a use for them.
The morning was almost entirely spent at that base, so in the afternoon Shen Muyu only cleaned up a few more shopping districts before returning to the safe zone, because... it was getting dark.
Moreover, Shen Muyu dared not linger outside for too long. If something happened that delayed him and he couldn't return to the safe zone within the allotted time, things would get really messy.
After returning to the safe zone, Shen Muyu stretched and returned to the dimensional space.
The various supplies that were originally piled up on the ground have been moved into the warehouse by Wei Yi and his team. In their place, there is a small campfire and an outdoor tent that has been set up, with many small colored lights hanging on it.
Several wooden tables connected together were set with skewered meat and washed vegetables.
No doubt, all of this was prepared by Weiyi, because Shen Muyu had already planned to have an outdoor barbecue tonight!
The wait for the results was too long, and watching TV in the bedroom was a bit boring, so Shen Muyu decided to organize a team building activity. Although Wei Yi and the others couldn't eat, they were still great as a group to create a lively atmosphere.
Upon seeing this scene, Da Bai immediately ran over, drooling as he stared at the barbecue grill with its charcoal already lit.
When Wei Yi saw Shen Muyu come in, he immediately picked up the skewers and started grilling them.
Shen Muyu found a chair and sat down. As expected of the amazing robot that had learned so many skill books, Wei Yi had set up the whole scene like a variety show, with all the lighting and atmosphere.
While the barbecue was going on over there, the atmosphere here couldn't be dull either. A dozen or so robots that had prepared their shows started performing, some doing acrobatics and others telling jokes. It was a veritable feast of entertainment.
Shen Muyu couldn't stop laughing at their monotone jokes, just like a respectable person being forced to perform, but with a more serious sense of humor.
Even in the end, Zhan Yi wasn't spared. Urged by Shen Muyu, he reluctantly went up and wielded its lightsaber. To be honest, the rapidly flowing light under the night sky had a unique beauty.
Because no one could be left unattended in the car, Xiao A did not participate.
Shen Muyu felt a little regretful, after all, it was the first little guy to appear beside her when she entered the game, and she would definitely bring it in next time.
After eating and drinking to their hearts' content and watching the performance, it was just past ten o'clock. After everyone went about their own business, Shen Muyu lay on a rocking chair and looked at the stars, holding a can of soda in her hand.
Although drinking would be more appropriate for the occasion, this is, after all, a survival game, and Shen Muyu doesn't dare to be so reckless.
Because the dimensional space at this time is not very large, the sky seen when looking up is square, but the stars are dazzling and beautiful.
Shen Muyu fell asleep while being rocked like that, but because he had been instructed in advance, he was woken up by Wei Yi at 11:50.
Rubbing her aching lower back, Shen Muyu returned to the car, waiting for the leaderboard to appear, wondering what games awaited them after this one.
