Pain, unbearable pain!

The agony seeped into every inch of Zhang Yi's body.

It was not a feeling but a harsh reality that he was truly experiencing.

At this moment, he was being greedily torn apart by friends and neighbors whom he had once trusted and helped.

In this resource scarce post-apocalyptic world, they didn't think twice about the help Zhang Yi had given them once, they simply wielded the butcher knife against him.

At his last breath, he faintly saw the goddess of his heart, Fang Yuqing, standing behind the crowd. She looked pitiful as she hollered, "I was the one who asked him to open the door. You have to leave me a rib to simmer in soup!"

It was this woman who tricked Zhang Yi into opening the door, resulting in his death.

Zhang Yi looked at her, his eyes filled with hatred and regret.

He could only blame himself for being too naive and kind-hearted, becoming food for others in this apocalyptic world.

How he wished everything could be redone.

At that time, he would not be kind to anyone again, living only for himself.

Zhang Yi soon blacked out, losing his consciousness.

However, just a moment later, his eyes burst open and he sat up on the sofa.

The hellish scene he'd just experienced, the horrifying pain, was still fresh in his mind.

Zhang Yi panted heavily, soon soaked in sweat from head to toe.

"What's going on? Wasn't I killed by those beastly neighbours?"

After regaining his focus, Zhang Yi began to look around at his surroundings.

This place was not unfamiliar to him, it was his own house.

Despite it's familiarity, the comfortable temperature in the air made him feel extremely surprised.

That's because in December 205 AD, Earth, referred as Blue Planet, was affected by a supernova explosion fifty thousand light years away, resulting in a global Cambrian storm.

The Earth's temperature plummeted, the daily temperature in the city of Tianhai, where Zhang Yi lived, was seventy degrees below zero, a heavy snowfall lasting for a month had submerged the entire city.

It is said that in the north of China, the temperature even reached a terrifying negative hundred degrees, burying the earth in snow.

A vast number of organisms were wiped out, even humans, more than 95% of the population were wiped out in this disaster.

Zhang Yi stood up, took a bottle of water out of the refrigerator, and gulped down more than half of it.

Although the refrigerated water was very cold, to him now, this water was like sweet nectar.

During the end times, the only way for people to obtain water was to go outside, endure the extreme subzero temperatures, and dig up snow to be melted into water.

This kind of task could easily freeze one to death.

After Zhang Yi had finished his water, he pulled out his phone to check the time.

It showed the date "November 12th".

Exactly one month left before doomsday.

"It seems like I've been reborn," Zhang Yi inhaled deeply, quickly understanding what had happened.

The experiences from that month couldn't possibly be just a dream, especially the pain of being dissected, which was too real.

Zhang Yi lifted his head, feeling extremely relieved after surviving a catastrophe.

At the same time, his eyes flashed with an incredibly sharp and potent light.

He clearly remembered those who had caused his death.

In this life, he was determined to survive, and he would have no more compassion for those beasts.

However, in the next moment, Zhang Yi began to consider how to prepare for the end of the world.

His parents had passed away early on, and he'd inherited a 120 square meter house in Tianhai City.

The savings in his hands amounted to over 2 million which is usually considered a comfortable amount.

But with the arrival of the end of the world, there would be a severe shortage of resources worldwide.

With just the money he had, it wouldn't last long.

After all, for one person to survive required a vast amount of resources.

Zhang Yi didn't only want to survive, he also desired a certain quality of life.

Food, entertainment, all had to be taken into account, otherwise, after a long time, his mental state would surely deteriorate.

Just at this moment, a streak of white light suddenly appeared before Zhang Yi's eyes.

He thought his eyes were playing tricks on him, so he rubbed them with his hand.

Just then, a strange thought suddenly surged in his mind.

It seemed that this streak of white light was a part of him, and information about the white light also appeared in his mind.

With a slight move of Zhang Yi's thought, his consciousness instantly entered into the white light.

To his surprise, he found himself in a vast expanse of whiteness — an incredibly huge space.

The size of the area inside was unknown, only large expanses of blank space.

"Is this... an alternate space?"

"It seems that after my rebirth, I've gained some special abilities."

Zhang Yi was instantly delighted.

The passage of gamma rays seemed to have granted him special abilities.

With this vast space, storing supplies for doomsday would be much more convenient.

However, Zhang Yi wanted to know exactly how much this space could contain and if there were any restrictions on the objects it could take.

His consciousness immediately returned to his room, then he started attempting to place objects from his house into the space.

He started with a teacup and a washbasin, both of which went in quite easily.

Zhang Yi started attempting to cram all the large appliances into it.

Color TV, refrigerator, washing machine, computer, air conditioner, vacuum cleaner.

The white space proved to be accepting of all, taking in these items without dispute.

Also, with just a thought from Zhang Yi, he can retrieve any item from the space.

Zhang Yi was ecstatic.

"With this enormous space, I can store a vast amount of resources!"

He licked his lips, a daring plan forming in his mind.

Zhang Yi's job was a warehouse supervisor for the Walmart Supermarket in the South China region.

As the world's largest supermarket, Walmart has everything imaginable.

In Hua Guo

China

, there are three massive warehouses in Central, Southern, and Northern China.

These three warehouses typically have enough supplies to cater to several cities with tens of millions of people for a week.

In other words, if Zhang Yi were to empty one warehouse and move everything into his space,

he would have enough supplies not just for one lifetime, but for ten!

The key point is that there are no low-grade goods in Walmart's warehouse, from food to daily necessities to luxury goods, all are top brands.

The quality is highly assured.

If Zhang Yi could empty out a warehouse of Walmart, no matter what the future held, even an apocalypse, he could live happier than a god!

As the manager of the warehouse, Zhang Yi was intimately familiar with every shelf, surveillance equipment, and staff schedule in the warehouse.

Emptying a warehouse was not a challenging task for him at all.

After making up his mind, Zhang Yi felt considerably more relaxed.

"Gurgle~"

Just then, Zhang Yi's stomach protested with a grumble.

Zhang Yi rubbed his belly, then glanced at the takeout he had bought on the table.

Without hesitation, he picked up the takeout and threw it directly into the trash can.

"In a month, it's the Apocalypse. Many delicious things must be consumed quickly, otherwise, there won't be another chance."

Why keep the money?

After the Apocalypse, money would become worthless paper. It would be better to spend it all now, so as not to waste it.

Zhang Yi turned around nonchalantly, ready to find a Michelin three-star restaurant, and have a hearty meal.
