Dimensional Store System In Apocalypse

Chapter 62: Hunted

'Stein, scan our surroundings. Is it possible for us to locate someone with an identical Luna Device like Bluetooth or wireless network from my world?' Zhang Qin Feng asked as he went further down the street. He arrived at a motorway after a five minutes walk.

'My gosh… Look at this wreckage…' Zhang Qin Feng was surprised by how wide is the motorway. There were six lanes on both sides, filled with destroyed or salvaged vehicles of all sizes.

By looking at how majestic is these ruins look, Zhang Qin Feng felt that it should look much better if it was not because of the Seed Crystal Virus outbreak.

[Toot…]

-

[The system had refined the Luna II's scanning system. Although the success rate might be lower than expected, the device can now detect nearby active users in 1 kilometers proximity]

-

[Would the user like to test the functionality right away?]

-

'Yes. Activate the Luna II and check my proximity for survivors.' Zhang Qin Feng immediately agreed to Stein's suggestion and allowed the system to do whatever it needed.

-

[Toot… Scanning in progress… Luna II detected no survivor's frequency within 1-kilometer proximity. The scanning process ceased]

-

[No survivor with Luna Device found within range. Suggesting the user move further before allowing the Luna II device to repeat the process. The scanning function will now set to automatic until further instruction from the user]

'How weird… To think that an open space like this wasn't infested with zombies all around… Are there survivors clearing this place often?' Zhang Qin Feng asked a question that's likely won't be answered until he met Satella again.

Once again, moving along the high-speed motorway made Zhang Qin Feng noticed how convenient it was for a civilization to thrive. Although there weren't too many differences between this post-apocalyptic world's building design compared to his own, the material they're using is much more versatile.

Construction materials that looked like resin and carbon fiber mixture were utilized in every corner, unlike the concrete, steel, and wood back where he came from. This material not only made the structure they're trying to build lighter and more durable but also resistant to weather and other natural damages.

This material is also the reason plenty of small establishments were built on both sides of the motorway. It was to provide suitable refreshments and stopping points to the travelers whenever they're feeling tired.

He activated the Luna II before walking into one of the buildings with signage saying [[STAR-SKY]] Chain Restaurants.

[Toot… No zombies nor survivors detected within 1-kilometer proximity…]

'How can a highway be this safe and not populated by survivors?' Zhang Qin Feng questioned the rationality behind their action.

Entering the restaurant, Zhang Qin Feng was greeted by the few self-introduction of the restaurants as he walked through the adequately decorated corridor leading into the dining hall.

Based on how the table and chairs were stacked together in the middle of the dining hall, there should be a battle that happened here no too long ago. The ration cans littered on the floor are yet to dry completely, meaning that people live here until recently.

'What makes them leave?' Zhang Qin Feng checked the surrounding. No zombies nor corpses were found. Not even the remains of a skeleton can be seen.

[Toot… The system noticed something that might be useful. Can the user make his way into the second room from the left?]

Stein suddenly speaks inside Zhang Qin Feng's mind and trying to bring him to a particular spot inside the restaurant. Since there was nothing much for him to do here anyway, Zhang Qin Feng decided to went along with Stein's instruction.

[Open the last shelf on the upper left wall. There should be an electronic panel. Gently take the two card-like hardware out, please]

The Stein that Zhang Qin Feng known was emotionless, but there was a 'Please' in its sentence for this request. Reaching his hand into the two chocolate-bar shape electronics, Zhang Qin Feng gave it a soft pull to removes it from the connecting point.

[The system will collect the electronics for research purposes right now. The user is advised to continue looking around for…]

[Alert! Alert! Get down on the floor right now! A high-velocity object is coming close to the building! Crash incoming at 3, 2, 1!!!]

**BAM!!!**

A damaged vehicle crashed into the building. Although the structure is durable as it was made from specialized construction material, that doesn't mean it is indestructible. And based on the direction the object came, it wasn't normal.

'Stein! Scan for zombies and survivors!' Zhang Qin Feng instructed as he made his way out of the restaurant immediately.

[Toot! Ten zombies' presence is spotted outside of the restaurant. Advising the user getting ready for a battle! One target seems to have a higher concentration of viral substance inside its body, suggesting the user to remain vigilant when leaving the premises!]

'You don't say!' Zhang Qin Feng used his shoulder to charge at the door to exit the restaurant. By the time he came outside, Zhang Qin Feng notices that a quarter of the restaurant was destroyed from the impact.

He can be said to be lucky as he wasn't located at the back of the restaurant.

*Woo…*

A zombie approaches Zhang Qin Feng before he can even take a breather from coming out of the restaurant impactfully. With both hands on the Centurion S-11 Rifle, Zhang Qin Feng fired a shot and blew the zombie's head off while he's still on the ground.

He quickly rolled over to his left and used his arm to support himself to stand as swiftly as he could. Pointing the rifle in front of him, Zhang Qin Feng found himself surrounded by the zombies after standing up.

**Bang! Bang! Bang!**

Zhang Qin Feng immediately fired three shots and took down two more zombies from his left direction.

'Seven more to go! Stein! Quickly get a safe escape route for me before it…'

[Alert! Alert! a High-Velocity object is coming close!]

**Whoosh!**

Zhang Qin Feng hops in front as he hugged the Centurion Rifle on his chest. He immediately crashed on a nearby car just a few meters from his spot. As for the projectile, it smashed into a few abandoned vehicles and created a wide opening where Zhang Qin Feng just stands.
