Chapter 2 Space Portal

This is a static space with dimensions of 100 meters in length, width, and height!

Living organisms cannot be stored.

But it can preserve freshness.

The hot water stored inside, no matter how long it stays, will still be as hot as when it was put in.

"Ding dong, Intelligent Assistant Q reminds you, it's exactly 10 o'clock according to Huaguo time!"

The sudden voice announcement snapped Nadine out of her excitement of exploring the space.

Today is August 25, 2040, and there's only one month left before the impending apocalypse.

Time is running out, and she can't afford to waste any more time.

Nadine sat down at the main desk, recalling the natural disasters that befell in her previous life, while organizing the supplies she needed to collect.

First came the torrential rain, followed by endless floods, extreme heat, extreme cold...

Every disaster was unimaginable for present-day humans.

In her previous life, with nothing to her name, she struggled to the third year of the apocalypse, experiencing almost every hardship imaginable.

In this reincarnation, she certainly won't allow herself to fall into such difficult circumstances again.

A sufficient supply of food and water is a must.

As well as medication.

In the chaos of the apocalypse, sometimes a tiny antibiotic pill can save a life.

In addition to that, there are clothes, shoes, various types of warm clothing; camping gear such as tents and sleeping bags for wilderness survival, as well as essential escape tools like cars and boats; candles, matches, emergency lights, batteries, power sources, and a series of basic necessities.

Nadine wrote down everything she could think of without missing a single item in her notebook.

As she wrote, she suddenly remembered a band of thieves from her previous life.

They lived extravagantly in the apocalypse by pillaging and plundering.

Meanwhile, unarmed ordinary people could only struggle to survive.

So self-defense weapons are absolutely critical.

Unfortunately, gun control in the country is very strict, and ordinary people have no way of buying them.

Including gasoline needed for cars and boats, without relevant permits, they cannot be freely sold within the country.

The only way is to go to the gas station each time, fill up the tank, and then take the time to do so.

This is too troublesome and doesn't yield much.

It would be great if she could make a trip to Country L.

Unfortunately, time is too short.

Although the real flood won't occur until a month later, the continuous rain and the premonition of the apocalypse have already begun.

Nadine remembered that in another ten days, flights from various countries would be grounded due to severe weather.

In ten days, it's unlikely she could even obtain a visa.

Just then, a light screen suddenly lit up in her mind's space.

"The Apocalypse Preparedness Period Portal is activated, allowing teleportation to any location on Earth.

Usage instructions:

Select coordinates from the spatial map to activate teleportation.

Usage rules are as follows:

Portal usage time: from 8:58 a.m. on August 25, 2040, to 11:59 p.m. on September 24, 2040;

Number of teleportations: ten times;

Destination stay time: 72 hours (after exceeding the time, it will automatically return to the starting coordinates)."

Looking at the light screen in her mind, Nadine was stunned in place, unable to react for a long time.

The Apocalypse Preparedness Period Portal!

Can teleport to any place on Earth!

Doesn't that mean she can go to Country L to collect gasoline and firearms!

This unexpected surprise made Nadine so excited that she couldn't help but tremble.

Country L, however, offers more than just gasoline and firearms.

There's also food that can't be finished, then tons of it gets discarded.

There, as long as you have money, you can buy anything!

Thinking about money, Nadine's feverish mind cooled slightly.

Looking at the balance displayed on her account, she only had 0.8 yuan.

This is still the dividend from the group that came a month late, so it hasn't been used up by the wolves at home.

If a few more days pass, she might not have any money left.

More than a million sounds like a lot, but it's definitely not enough for her to hoard supplies in Country L.

Thinking about it, she picked up her phone and quickly sent a message in the group chat for shareholders: "Selling 20% of the shares under my name, starting at one billion yuan, full payment, first come, first served!"

These 20% of the shares were left to her by her mother.

In her previous life, Kerry had always wanted to buy these shares at a low price, but because of her mother's will, she had never agreed.

This life, Nadine knew that the apocalypse was about to come, and all shares and money would eventually become worthless.

So next, she will sell these shares in exchange for survival supplies for the apocalypse.

But it definitely won't be at a cheap price!

As soon as the message was sent, the phone kept ringing with notification sounds.

The entire group chat exploded like a pot of boiling water.

Some questioned its authenticity, some directly made offers...

Nadine ignored them all and focused on reorganizing the inventory list.

Since she decided to go to Country L, there's no need to collect certain things domestically.

Such as large quantities of rice and flour.

Although large-scale buying and selling of grains is not prohibited domestically, buying hundreds or thousands of tons will definitely attract attention.

And unlike Country L, where there are many people and few land, she won't compete with the locals.

But those unique Chinese delicacies must not be missed.

God knows how much she longed for hotpot, barbecue, and snail noodles in the apocalypse.

Thinking about it made her want to buy them.

Opening a certain e-commerce platform, Nadine's eyes lit up as she saw various kinds of delicacies displayed on the page, and she clicked on it without hesitation, then began to order frantically.

Instant noodles: beef flavor, chicken soup flavor, sour, spicy, all flavors were bought up to their stock limit.

Sour and spicy noodles, beef noodles, snail noodles, duck blood vermicelli, self-heating hot pot, self-heating rice, none were missed.

With the main meals secured, side dishes and snacks to go with rice were also essential.

Ham sausages, pork, chicken, fish, ten boxes of each were ordered directly.

Pickled pepper chicken feet, lemon chicken feet, tiger skin chicken feet, directly emptied the store's stock with a single click.

Seeing the recommended canned foods below, Nadine's eyes brightened, and she added them to the shopping cart.

Those are good items, even without space preservation, they can last a long time.

Together with compressed biscuits, in the scarce resources of the apocalypse, they're used as hard currency for trade.

But the taste is much better than compressed biscuits by more than a mile.

Canned luncheon meat, braised pork, fermented fish, yellow croaker, tuna, bamboo shoots in oil, canned peaches, canned oranges, canned strawberries, canned vegetables.

Whatever the store had, all went into the shopping cart.

Convenient and easily filling compressed biscuits naturally couldn't be missed, with a hundred boxes selected.

And chocolates with energy storage capabilities, black, white, 999 of each.

999 is their stock limit.

Soon, the shopping cart was filled to the brim.

Quickly proceed to checkout, then payment, a total of 0.78 yuan.

This money really doesn't last, just this much stuff has used up a quarter of her savings.
