Unfortunately, when Lin Li tried to absorb the "Thunder Seed" in the [Warehouse], he still couldn't handle it.

Wait.

Midnight, October 14th, Monday.

[Update complete.]

Opened the textless interface, still no sign of the longed-for message. This grooved system really offers updates like squeezing toothpaste.

If Lin Li knew who was behind the updates, he'd charge up to the person and do a "white knife in, red knife out," peeling them like a premium blood orange, then send them off with a blessing of prosperity and longevity, and finally wish their whole family happiness and health...

[You have received "Repair Crystal" *1.]

After increasing the stock of "Repair Crystal" to 2, Lin Li chose to switch this slot 4.

[You have refreshed "Grain Avoidance Pill (Bottle)": 20 system currency, would you like to replace it?]

[Grain Avoidance Pill (Bottle): Contains five pills, after consumption by low-level cultivators or ordinary people, depending on their later activity intensity, they will have no need to eat for one week to thirty days and will experience no negative effects from not eating. The pill mildly adjusts the user's body during this time.]

Lin Li raised an eyebrow slightly; just like the "Health and Disease Removal Pill", it's for low-level cultivators or ordinary folks, considered one of the most lackluster types of pills.

However, the price is quite friendly, four system currency per piece, and it's not even limited in purchase.

But as for its usefulness... it's quite redundant for Lin Li.

Some people eat to live, and some people live to eat.

This has been documented in history:

"Give me liberty, or give me death," is a famous quote by Patrick Henry of the United States in 1775.

"Swallow undisturbed sparrows know not the ambition of a swan," from "Historical Records: Henry's Family".

Lin Li quite appreciates the desire for delicious food.

Eating something delicious makes people happy.

If you could still eat and drink normally after consuming the Grain Avoidance Pill, that would be fine; but if you weren't hungry at all during the period, or couldn't eat anything, Lin Li felt it would even be more harmful than beneficial.

Because it would easily make others notice something unusual.

The effect of this Grain Avoidance Pill is estimated to be determined by the amount of activity during the period of taking it. If it's for a month, it'll be too easy to notice.

Let's just hope you can eat and drink normally after consuming it.

[You have received "Grain Avoidance Pill (Bottle)" *1.]

Let's buy a bottle first.

Firstly, because Lin Li has a hoarding mentality, he'll start by storing it in the [Warehouse]; although Lin Li personally doesn't need it, in an apocalyptic world, it would still have value, so exchanging a bottle is not a loss, it might come in handy.

The system update has been confirmed, Lin Li is ready to go.

The gear was sorted out nearby when Lin Li didn't go to school during the day, so he quickly got dressed.

With the last experience, some supplies were abandoned, replaced with new ones. Considering the different time flow, this time Lin Li wants to see how long he can really stay in that world.

"Lin Li: I'm not feeling well. If I don't go to school tomorrow, please ask the teacher for leave on my behalf."

Lin Li sent a message to Bai Bufan.

After all, his hypothesis lacks enough practical support, so Lin Li had to prepare a Plan B in case he didn't return in time.

"Bai Bufan: ?"

"Bai Bufan: What about my breakfast?"

Lin Li laughed out of anger.

Bai Bufan seemed like the type who, when asked by the girlfriend "Guess who I met in the hospital," would respond with "Never mind who you saw, check out this polar bear that looks like an AirPods."

The focus, damn it, is on breakfast, huh?

"Bai Bufan: Can you stop being so selfish and deliver my breakfast before you ask for leave?"

"Lin Li: Bai Bufan, do you know how disgustingly annoying you are? When your real mom first perceived you, she was so nauseated she wanted to puke and felt the urge several times in the following months."

"Bai Bufan: ?"

"Bai Bufan: Who's mom wouldn't feel like puking? Plus, we agreed to only include virtual moms, not real ones. You broke the rules, penalty of two hundred bucks!"

"Lin Li: 'Wu Bai photo', demand three hundred from me."

"Bai Bufan: 'Wu Bai photo' (just stolen), demand two hundred from me."

"..."

"Lin Li: Not saying more, feeling unwell. Resting, remember tomorrow."

"Bai Bufan: Okay, wishing you okay 'palm together' 'palm together' 'palm together'"

"Bai Bufan: But how come you're suddenly unwell? During evening study class, you seemed fine, and there hasn't been a swine flu outbreak recently?"

Anthropomorphism always comes last, but Lin Li didn't reply.

Since according to his hypothesis, no matter how long he was there, only a few minutes would pass in reality, so replying later upon return wouldn't be too late.

If his hypothesis was wrong, Bai Bufan would definitely notice his absence and help with the absence request.

Everything's ready, Lin Li clicked 'Go'.

A flash of white light, and as the vision cleared, Lin Li raised the slingshot crossbow in his hand, aiming forward.

Empty.

A glance around, the figure he saw last time he left has disappeared. Tao Zhe is nowhere in sight, and Dou Dizhu is divided between his head and body, seemingly a bit dead.

It seems a battle might have happened here after he left.

The steel rod he left last time was probably taken away.

That guy assumed that things left on the ground were unclaimed.

Setting a timer, adjusting the body camera on his chest, Lin Li began reviewing the experiment results.

Confirmed new information: one condition for what he could bring along seems to be the main force holding it should come from himself.

When Lin Li arrived, he had a chair leg resting on his shoe, 'placing' it on him, but the chair wasn't brought over.

——Because the primary force holding it came from the ground.

Taking out a small plastic box from his pocket.

Inside was a dead ant and a disassembled ant leg.

What was in reality has all been brought over.

Lin Li reached into a side pocket of his backpack, taking out a just-placed pack of pork jerky.

——Because this expedition wouldn't be brief, Lin Li packed some food and water, and also some ingredients for the Beauty Lady mission.

Whether it's the ant in the box or the pork jerky, they are dead things that were once alive.

Now, in reality, he can bring these things to this world, but not the zombie meat and blood from this world back to reality?

The conditions for carrying things seem a bit inconsistent, differing between worlds?

But Lin Li didn't dwell long on this issue, as thinking alone is meaningless, needing more experimental samples, and for Lin Li, it is after all good news, being slightly careless doesn't matter.

What he needs to accomplish now is completing mission two while looking for Gold, so Lin Li took out a snake-skin bag with abrasion resistance, extra thickness, and a friction layer at the bottom.

——Beauty Lady's body was too heavy and cumbersome for Lin Li to carry all the time, so he brought this bag for convenience in dragging her later.

One tug achieves apocalypse-speed, with tangible achievements.

Then Lin Li looked around.

Wait.

There was a small problem.

"Who the hell stole the head again?!"
