[DING! Congratulations, host, you have obtained 50 primary crystals! ]

[DING! Critical strike multiplier activated! ]

[DING! Congratulations, host, you have obtained 500 primary crystals! ]

These primary crystals were all picked up by David while killing zombies just now. As he looked at the increasing number of primary crystals, David felt a sense of security. In this world, crystals were a circulating currency. As long as he had crystals, he could guarantee all his needs.

Of course, David didn't plan to use the crystals for food and drink. They were too valuable. In other words, based on the current exchange rate, one primary crystal could be exchanged for a significant amount of food. David believed that besides himself, no one else in this world was as wealthy as him.

While David was contemplating, the mechanical voice of the system sounded again.

[DING! Host has found a new Base for the team. Mission accomplished! ]

[New mission initiated: Consolidate the spatial functionality of the new stronghold and create a supreme defense system.]

[Mission completion countdown: 7 days, 18 hours, 53 minutes, 42 seconds.]

Listening to the system's voice, David furrowed his brow slightly. "Consolidate the spatial functionality of the stronghold and create a supreme defense system?" He paused for a moment and immediately understood. If he guessed correctly, this mission should be based on his spatial abilities as determined by the system. In other words, it meant using his abilities to transform the base into a fortress in the apocalypse.

In fact, David had considered this before, but he had been too focused on finding a new base these past few days, so he hadn't given it much thought. Now that they had found the new stronghold, it was natural for him to start reinforcing it. However, over seven days was more than enough time for him. In fact, David believed that if he wanted to, he could complete this mission before the deadline.

With this in mind, David didn't rush and lay down on the bed to rest. After all, taking care of his body was essential, especially in this world filled with violence.

On the other side, as Monica watched the disappearing red light on the horizon, she became restless. She had been waiting for Abraham for nearly a whole day, but she still hadn't seen him return.

As a result, their plan to purchase weapons from David had to be put on hold. However, Monica suddenly wondered if someone had beaten them to David's stockpile of weapons. If that were the case, their wait would have been in vain.

You see, in this world, if you possessed a box of weapons, you were like a god. Having weapons symbolized power. Although Monica believed that their group's strength shouldn't be underestimated, having weapons would provide them with a greater sense of security.

"Why hasn't Abraham come back yet? It's almost dark," Monica stood up and paced anxiously.

At the same time, she was also very puzzled. Although Abraham would occasionally go out alone, it was usually for a short time, and he would always return within a few hours. But today, he had been out for so long without returning. Could he have encountered some danger?

With these thoughts, Monica immediately panicked! The red light had just dispersed, and there were wandering zombies everywhere outside. If Abraham had truly been targeted by the zombies, the outcome would be unimaginable.

Seeing Monica's serious and nervous expression, Danny, on the other hand, calmly returned to the sofa and continued opening the remaining bag of potato chips to eat.

Observing this, Monica became displeased. "Abraham hasn't returned yet, and you're still eating potato chips? Don't you worry about Abraham's safety?"

Danny picked up a chip fragment and put it in his mouth, producing a crisp sound. He smiled and said, "Don't worry, Abraham is highly skilled and unpredictable. You don't need to worry about him ,you're concerned about your own safety. He won't be in danger. Instead of anxiously waiting here, why not enjoy the rare moments of beauty in life?"

Danny gestured with the bag of potato chips, inviting Monica to have a piece as well. This only angered Monica even more! She knew that Abraham was also a hidden master, but the situation outside was too complex now! The reappearance of the red light and the discovery of high-level zombies in the recent battle indicated that the danger level in this world had increased by another level.

What would they do if higher-level zombies appeared? Monica didn't have the leisurely attitude of Danny. After a pause, she spoke again, "Forget it, enjoy the beauty of life yourself. I'm going out to search. Maybe I'll have some gains." Without further hesitation, she turned around and disappeared from the room.

Seeing Monica leave, Danny wasn't concerned. He also knew Monica's personality, and once she had made up her mind, he couldn't change it, no matter what he did.

Meanwhile, in the third room on the left of the third floor, a man wearing a duckbill hat and a black cloak slowly walked out. Standing at the doorway, he surveyed his surroundings, finding no one, and then headed towards the staircase.

As the sky gradually darkened, David began to wake up. At that moment, there was a knock on his bedroom door. "David, it's time to eat," Sally's voice came from outside the door. David answered and got up, leaving the room.

He entered the dining room, not knowing when Sally had already prepared dinner. Everyone was sitting at the table, waiting for David. Looking at the dishes laid out on the table, David rubbed his belly, suddenly feeling a wave of hunger.

"David, start eating! Sally has been busy making this for the whole afternoon. It smells so delicious that it makes one's mouth water!" Arnold eagerly exclaimed, looking at the braised pork ribs on the table. David nodded and picked up his chopsticks to take a piece of rib. The others followed suit and started eating.

"Sally's culinary skills are truly amazing. This steamed fish is so delicious! And this herbal chicken soup is so nourishing!" Arnold praised Sally's cooking while eating. David also didn't hold back and gave Sally a thumbs-up.

Hearing these exaggerated compliments, Sally smiled happily, feeling a warm and nostalgic sensation in her heart. Since the red light descended and the zombie outbreak occurred, she hadn't experienced the feeling of eating together like this. So she watched the others eating greedily, and it seemed like she was seeing the scene of her and her family eating together in the past.

After a while, the table full of dishes was completely devoured by everyone. David patted his satisfied belly and then took out several dozen crystals and placed them on the table. The plan was for everyone to absorb these crystals later and see if they could make any breakthroughs.

Everyone nodded happily and took several crystals, holding them in their hands. Duke was especially excited. After receiving the crystals, he quickly returned to the house and started absorbing them. Watching his impatient behavior, David silently shook his head.
