David didn't know if he could trust this person's words. Perhaps he had been deceived by Brian and Lily too many times. David now had doubts about anyone he looked at, questioning the authenticity of their words.

Duke felt uncomfortable under David's gaze. After hesitating for a moment, he spoke up, "Bro... you... looking at me like this makes me uneasy."

David responded with a faint "Hmm" and then shifted his gaze to the room door behind the counter. He walked towards the door and stood in front of it after a few steps.

Before he could open the door to go inside, Duke approached him, smiling, and said, "This is where I've been sleeping for over two months, so it's a bit messy."

Saying that, Duke personally opened the door for David. Inside the room was filled with clutter. However, in the middle of the mess, a small cleared space had been organized, big enough for one person to sleep. In that space, there was only one pillow and a thick blanket.

"Damn apocalypse, damn zombies! Once I fully master my abilities, I'll definitely kill all these beasts! Otherwise, I wouldn't have been suffering here!" Duke looked at the environment inside and instantly recalled the hardships he had endured during this period. He vented his frustration. But David treated his words as if they went in one ear and out the other. His so-called heartless boss should have died a long time ago. Where was the chance for him to seek revenge?

David walked inside and inspected the boxes placed in the room. When he opened them one by one, he discovered that they were all stocked goods from the convenience store! On the floor, a box of trash was sitting in the corner. The packaging of the garbage inside the boxes was identical to the food on the store shelves.

Duke walked in and sighed. "If it weren't for the food and water here, I probably wouldn't have survived. Even so, I only eat one meal a day, barely making it this far."

David still ignored his words. Instead, Danny walked in and gave him a thumbs up. "Brother, you're the god of luck in this chaotic world!"

"God of luck? Chaotic world?" Duke was confused.

Then Danny reached out and placed his hand on Duke's shoulder. He led Duke to the side and began explaining the outbreak of the zombies in detail.

Meanwhile, David continued to explore the room, extending his hand and storing all the remaining supplies in his space. Although the supplies were not abundant, they were still precious in the apocalypse.

After a while, all the remaining supplies in the room had been stored in David's space. He turned his head and looked at Duke, who was shocked by Danny's words, before leaving the room. The stock in the room has been collected, and the shelves are next. The supplies on the shelves are also not much, and they are some basic living supplies.

David looked at the supplies with a flicker of thought.

[Ding! ]

[Congratulations, you've obtained 10 rolls of toilet paper, critical hit multiplier in effect! ]

[Congratulations, you've obtained 1,000 rolls of toilet paper! ]

[You've obtained 20 candles, critical hit multiplier in effect! ]

[Congratulations, you've obtained 2,000 candles! ]

[You've obtained 30 bars of soap, critical hit multiplier in effect! ]

[Congratulations, you've obtained 3,000 bars of soap! ]

Just as Duke was still immersed in panic and fear after listening to Danny's words, he turned around and noticed that the room and the supplies on the shelves had suddenly disappeared. Confusion appeared on his face. What just happened? In the blink of an eye, these things vanished into thin air. He looked at David perplexed and asked, "What happened to these supplies?"

David looked at him with a faint smile. "Sorry, I took all these things." The reason for doing so was that David wanted to test what kind of person this guy named Duke really was.

Upon hearing David's words, Duke's expression immediately turned dark. He had assumed that David and Danny would take him away from this cursed place. In that case, these supplies would have no use for him. But now that they hadn't mentioned anything about leaving, if he continued to stay here alone without supplies, how would he survive?

"Then you need to give me an explanation." Duke looked at David, his meaning implied.

David understood his intention but didn't answer directly. Instead, he smiled slightly and said, "That's the law of survival in the apocalypse. You need to learn to adapt."

At that moment, Danny walked over to David with a bitter smile and whispered, "This guy has his eyes on you now. I tested him earlier, and there shouldn't be any major issues."

During their conversation, Danny had been observing Duke's micro-expressions. When he noticed that Duke had a look of surprise and confusion the whole time, Danny nodded subtly.

"This is the real reaction of a normal person who has been trapped here for several days." Danny was saying this when Duke clenched his teeth and pulled out a long sword from the shelf. Holding the sword, he looked at David and said, "Either you take me out of here, or you return all my supplies! Otherwise, I'll fight you like a man, even if it costs me my life!"

Hearing Duke's words, David was slightly surprised. He didn't expect this guy to have such spirit. Just then, they heard a chaotic shuffle of footsteps outside the door. David frowned, knowing that the nearby zombies had been attracted by their presence. He coldly replied to Duke, "You overestimate your own strength. In my eyes, you're not even my match."

As soon as he finished speaking, Duke didn't hesitate and swung his sword towards David. "Let's see about that!" Danny shook his head helplessly. Just as the sword was about to strike, David raised his foot and kicked Duke hard in the abdomen, causing him to double over in pain, clutching his stomach on the ground. "I told you, you're not worthy."

David looked at him, having already grasped a basic understanding of this guy. When he kicked Duke, he could clearly feel that he had charged purely relying on brute force. He hadn't even activated his special abilities. It seemed that he hadn't fully grasped the mysteries of his powers, confirming David's suspicions.

"You guys... are bullying me!" Duke sat on the ground with a mournful face, throwing the sword aside. He looked like a wronged little girl.

"Heh, brother, this is the current state of the outside world. You're still considered lucky to have encountered us today. If you come across others, forget about these supplies, your life would probably be in danger." Danny spoke to Duke at the right moment.

Upon hearing Danny's words, Duke's mood calmed down a bit. At that moment, the footsteps of the zombies outside the door became clearer and clearer. The group became cautious, afraid to make even the slightest noise. However, David abruptly opened the door and immediately saw a horde of zombies preparing to surround them. Each zombie bared its teeth, emitting a decaying odor that filled the air. David turned around, his gaze filled with profound meaning, as he stared at Duke.
