52: Lifespan +1000

Check in advance, and if your shelter is really on that guy's route, you can prepare in advance.

Still at the beginning of the apocalypse, Chen Ming didn't have much experience fighting monsters.

The most powerful monster he had fought so far was the Titan Zombie worth a black iron treasure box earlier.

How did the Titan Zombie compare to the Scarlet Knight reported in the news?

It can only be said that they were worlds apart.

In terms of size, the Scarlet Knight could stomp the Titan Zombie into meat paste with one foot, turning it into a pool of blood!

As the saying goes, know yourself and your enemy, and you will win a hundred battles. Collecting more information is not harmful to yourself.

Operate the phone with one hand and eat while it's hot with the other.

A mouthful of seafood fried rice, paired with large pieces of steak cut with a knife and fork in advance, stuffed into the mouth, was simply too satisfying.

After confirming that the URL was correct, Chen Ming clicked search and started spinning.

It was clear that the current mobile signal was, at times, far worse than before the apocalypse.

However, Chen Ming thought it was already great that the internet wasn't disconnected, and there was no reason to ask for more.

If this momentum continued, widespread internet disconnection would happen sooner or later.

Yang TV's official website provided a quick query window to view the Scarlet Knight. Clicked, and the link opened.

Drone real-time monitoring, constantly changing the predicted route based on the Scarlet Knight's direction of movement.

But upon closer observation, it was discovered that the Scarlet Knight had been moving in a straight line from beginning to end.

Chen Ming placed his phone on the table to easily zoom out the map with two fingers.

After zooming out the map, the visible range also became wider.

He saw clearly that the so-called big data predicted route went straight through the Fushan Residence villa area.

This meant that if the Scarlet Knight continued to maintain this route, he would eventually meet Chen Ming.

Nervous?

Chen Ming was not only not nervous, but instead scooped up a plump shrimp and put it in his mouth, which was very springy.

To be honest, even if the Scarlet Knight didn't come looking for him, Chen Ming had already set his mind on him after learning of his existence.

He really wanted to figure out one thing: what level of treasure chest would such a huge monster drop as a reward after being killed?

"Gold? Platinum? Diamond, or even... Epic?"

He guessed irresponsibly.

With his free hand, he clicked on his location, and connecting the two points, Chen Ming got the time the Scarlet Knight would arrive at Fushan Residence.

[47 hours 23 minutes 24 seconds...]

To be precise, it was a countdown, close to two days.

Because the Scarlet Knight had been moving at a constant speed, it wasn't difficult to calculate the time he would arrive at the target location.

"If the Dangerous Rover Mech can't solve him, an SSS-level World Destroying Fireball shouldn't be difficult, right?"

"It's the highest level skill after all. If it can't even deal with early-stage monsters, won't humans just have to wait for death in the future?"

Chen Ming guessed that the mastermind behind this disaster shouldn't be so abnormal.

Like many people, Chen Ming was curious about the origin of the Ten Thousand Realms Fishing software, but at the moment, let alone having the ability to investigate this matter, he had no clue at all and didn't know where to start.

Use the S-Rank Skill Super Hacker to hack into the mobile program?

Chen Ming hadn't not thought of this plan, but unfortunately, after some attempts, he failed.

The only answer he got was: [Detected program crash, unable to retrieve data, please try restarting!]

He simply put the matter out of his mind. Worrying wouldn't solve the problem.

At least for now, it was certain that the Ten Thousand Realms Fishing software was beneficial to him and had no harm.

Even if he was targeted by bad luck and fished out monsters, now with the SSS-level Kill Enemy Drop Treasure Chest skill, it had turned into free resources, just with an extra hunting step.

He picked up the plate and scraped the last bit of seafood fried rice clean with a spoon.

The little steak sauce in the wooden plate was wiped clean with the remaining half of the croissant and sent into his mouth, emphasizing no waste.

The storage space also thoughtfully provided a one-click cleaning function.

Of course, Chen Ming could also choose to keep those wooden plates and porcelain bowls and wash them clean himself.

But he had plenty of such things, so there was no need to waste effort.

Lying on the sofa, he held up his phone with both hands, opened the forum, and typed in the words Scarlet Knight.

Chen Ming wanted to know how others viewed this monster.

Went straight to the comment section.

[This Red Knight looks really terrifying and imposing!]

[Which bastard fished this thing out? If you admit it now, you can still strive for leniency!]

[Leniency my ass, just go to his door and shoot him, damn it! This is just harming people!]

[Speaking of which, who do you think is more powerful, this Scarlet Knight or Mecha Celestial?]

[Hard to say, I haven't seen any footage of the Scarlet Knight fighting yet, I'll vote for Mecha Celestial]

[Two swords + a Shotgun, I'll vote for Mecha Celestial. Sir, times have changed]

[Brothers, there's half an hour left until the fishing attempts reset, I wish all you brothers explosive luck and powers!]

[I'm willing to trade ten years of being single for a mech!]

[Ten years? I'm going all in!]

[Damn, you're competing even in this? Are you addicted to competing?]

[All in? I'm even overdrawing my next life!]

[You guys are really ruthless]

...

After reading a few more posts, Chen Ming smiled faintly, "It seems that my popularity now can even surpass those top celebrities with tens of millions or even over a hundred million followers?"

Unfortunately, in troubled times, what's the use of fans?

Organize them and form his own army?

Forget it, with that effort, Chen Ming might as well cast a few more times and upgrade the SS-grade Shadow Wolf Summon skill to SSS-level!

"S-Rank one per day, SS-grade ten per day, based on this order, wouldn't SSS-level be a hundred?"

"An extra hundred Shadow Wolf Summons every day is thirty-six thousand five hundred a year! Thirty-six thousand five hundred a decade!"

The more Chen Ming thought about it, the more excited he became, and he had already imagined the grand scene of himself leading an army of a million Shadow Wolves in his mind.

Let alone a million, ten thousand Shadow Wolves could be invincible!

They were stronger than Zombies, moved faster, and understood teamwork better...

Most importantly, they had a Master who could enhance their skills.

While there was still some time until midnight.

Chen Ming happily became a simplified version of a fisherman again.

Clicked [Start Fishing], cast the fishing rod with both hands, and it plopped into the water.

[Fishing in progress...]

[Fishing successful! Critical hit successful! Congratulations to the host for gaining Life +1000!]

Seeing this result, Chen Ming froze for half a second.

He confirmed repeatedly, it was indeed Life plus one thousand!

According to the system description, if Chen Ming remembered correctly, 1 Life was equal to one year of life.

"One thousand points... Does this directly increase my lifespan by a thousand years?"
