Chapter 1 The Shield System was Activated

Daniel felt like he was going to die.

The last can at home had been eaten up three days ago.

The firewood in the room had already been burnt out.

Cold and hunger kept torturing Daniel.

He curled up in the corner of the bathroom, pulling his clothes tightly, trying to lock the last heat.

Why did he hide in the bathroom? It was small and there was no window. The cold air could not enter and the temperature was higher.

Daniel closed his eyes desperately, waiting for death.

A week ago, Daniel inexplicably arrived at this shabby house.

He was still himself, but his identity had changed.

It seemed that he had entered a parallel world.

Through this week's understanding, he figured out something and knew his name was Daniel.

This planet was also called the earth.

He had thought that he would become the most talented person in this world and reach the peak of his life like other transmigrators.

But he didn't expect that there was only a shabby room and a few cans after he came here.

What was worse, it was the end of the world.

Volcano eruption! The meteorite fell! Torrential flood and Tsunami! Snow and hail! As long as you could think of natural disasters, you could often see them here!

This planet was riddled with holes and hopeless.

As natural disasters occurred frequently, people are unable to survive on the ground.

Humans had no choice but to build many underground cities.

Everyone wanted to enter the underground city, but the space and resources of the underground city were limited, so it was impossible for everyone to enter.

Therefore, people came up with a way: draw lots!

But after the draw, people found that all the rich people in the world had entered the underground city.

Only the poor people remained on the ground.

People knew that they had been fooled.

There was no drawing at all. The one who had the money could enter the underground city.

However, these poor people had no choice. Accompanied by poverty, they were often powerless.

If you didn't have money or power, you could just wait for death on the ground!

Unfortunately, Daniel was a poor woman with no power!

Just as Daniel thought he was going to die, a weak mechanical voice suddenly sounded in his mind.

"The shield upgrade system has been activated and is binding to host!"

What? System

Daniel struggled to open his eyes and thought, "I really have a system!"

But why did it appear so late!

"Successfully bound host!"

Host Name: Daniel

Age: 20

Daniel's heart beat faster. He could live on with the system!

Thinking of this, Daniel's hope of survival was rekindled.

He slowly sat up and barely leaned against the wall, lest his physical strength would fall down.

He asked, "System, what can you do?"

"I, system, can help the shelter of host upgrade and make the survival of host better."

"Host will be rewarded after completing the task. The system will reward you with gold coins according to the degree of completion of the task"

"Gold coins can be exchanged for items in the system shop."

This...

Daniel was very excited. The operation mode of the system was very simple. As long as he completed the task of the system, he would get a reward.

Upgrade shield?

In this way, wouldn't this shabby house become a perfect living base?

The shelter was the precondition for the survival of the apocalypse. Without a safe place to live, he couldn't live for two days anyway.

"Haha! I'm going to reach the peak of my life!"

Suddenly, a strong sense of hunger spread. Daniel covered his stomach in pain.

"If only there was something to eat!"

"I wonder if there is food in the system."

Daniel asked directly, "System, do you have anything to eat?"

"Host can receive novice gift pack for food."

"Novice gift pack? Haha! I have something to eat now!" Daniel couldn't wait to open the novice gift pack.

"Congratulations, host. You got 1,000 cans!"

Can! One thousand!

He opened the system interface and saw one thousand cans lying quietly in the warehouse of the system.

Besides, there were all kinds of them.

There were meat, vegetables, fruits, dried fruits, grains, beans, and even condiments.

There was even a baby's complimentary food!

It could be said that he had everything he wanted!

"Haha, I'm not afraid of malnutrition now!"

All kinds of food could fully meet the nutrition needs of the body in all aspects.

Without hesitation, Daniel took out a can from the system.

The system was really useful. As long as he moved his consciousness, the can would appear in his hand.

He ate five cans in a row, touched his stomach with satisfaction and burped.

"This can is so delicious!"

"Great!" Daniel had been hungry since he came here.

Daniel didn't feel hungry anymore.

It was great to have a system!

The can was an extremely rare living material on this earth. Because it could be preserved for a long time, it was indispensable for the apocalypse.

Now he still had more than 900 cans, which was definitely a huge fortune.

Now, money might not be useful, but this food was absolutely useful.

Who wouldn't eat?

If he sold these things in the underground city, he could definitely buy a house there.

Suddenly, a voice came to Daniel's mind.

"New task: dig out a basement of 200 square meters in a month! The basement needed to be able to resist natural disasters like storms."

"Task reward: A small generator, with 500 kilograms of diesel!"

"The generator! WOW!"

The reward was really attractive to him.

He knew that there was a shortage of electricity. His house had already had a blackout because he couldn't afford the huge amount of electricity.

With the help of the generator, the problem of using electricity in his house could be solved.

Fuel diesel was also a very scarce resource, and the earth's non-renewed energy had already been drained.

Even one kilogram of oil could be sold at a sky-high price, let alone five hundred kilograms!

With so many resources, if he could make a move, the money he obtained could make him survive in the underground city for a long time.

Daniel raised his head and looked at his house. The house was riddled with holes. He even felt that as long as a gust of wind blew, the house would collapse.

The top priority was to find another place to live.

This task was released in time!

"But how can I dig out a basement of 200 square meters?"

It was impossible for him to complete such a large basement in a month!

Although the task reward was rich, it was not easy!

"I have no choice but to ask someone for help!"

He had so many cans. Even a little of them could make others work for him wholeheartedly!

But who could he look for?

Suddenly, Daniel thought of his good friend, Charlie.
