Chapter 3: Trouble Always Comes Knocking

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Bang!

Bang!

Something kept hitting the metal door.

With every hit, a part of the metal door would cave in.

One look and he could tell that the person outside was not someone to be trifled with.

However, Johnson wasn’t panicking. At most, he was just a little nervous right now.

After all, strictly speaking, this would be his first time coming into contact with zombies.

To say that he was not nervous at all would be outright lying.

Johnson carefully raised his electromagnetic gun and aimed it at the metal door. He slowly retreated to the furthest corner of the room.


Since he had a pistol in his hand, there was no need to fight at close range.

By the time Johnson retreated to the wall, the steel door was already riddled with many depressions.

The next moment, the metal door was slammed open, and a black shadow lunged at Johnson!

This scene was something he did not expect!

However, the Johnson now had been promoted by the system to become an Apprentice Mechanic, and his physical qualities had undergone enhancement.

His newfound powerful reflexes came into play as he quickly dodged to the side.

While evading the shadow’s lunge, Johnson lashed out with his leg, smashing it squarely into the shadow’s chest.

The shadowy figure suddenly flew back a meter, landing heavily on the ground.

Only now did Johnson clearly see what the shadowy figure was.

It was indeed a zombie!

Its dirty clothes were tattered and its skin had turned pale green.

Its eyeballs did not possess any pupils or irises, and had instead turned gray.

It was even emitting weird snuffling noises from its mouth.

Johnson immediately raised his electromagnetic gun and pulled the trigger.

The next moment, a small ball of light appeared at the muzzle of the gun. The energy gathered, and an electromagnetic beam shot straight at the zombie.

Whoosh!

A hole soundlessly appeared in the zombie’s head!

After its brain was damaged, the zombie immediately stopped moving.

This was their only weakness. Even if half of their bodies were destroyed, they would still move.

Only by destroying their brains could one truly eliminate the zombies.

Johnson narrowed his eyes as he stared at the zombie corpse lying motionlessly on the ground.

If he had encountered this zombie the exact moment he opened his eyes in this world, he would probably have turned into zombie food…

[Successfully killed a mutated creature. Obtained 1 point]

An electronic voice sounded in his mind, it was the system giving a notification.

Johnson nodded when he heard the contents.

It seemed that he could use this method to confirm whether the zombies were dead in the future. If he didn’t hear the system prompt that confirmed their death…

Then shoot again!

With one more bullet in his arsenal, Johnson felt more at ease.

He looked at the scene outside the iron door. It seemed to be a basement.

For the time being, he didn’t hear anything from his surroundings. There should be no other zombies around.

Johnson looked back at the mineral water bottles remaining in the carton and thought about putting it in his system Storage. He was pleasantly surprised when the system responded and the carton of water vanished.

He once again sighed at how convenient this [Legendary Mechanic System] was.

However, Johnson did not plan to just leave the entire carton in his Storage.

He put the pistol back into his Storage before retrieving the mini purification device and a bottle of black mineral water.

After putting the mineral water into the purification device, he pressed the activation button to begin the purification.

Since it took about a minute to purify a bottle, this process would be too time consuming if he just stood around. Holding it while the purification took place would allow him to obtain more water while being on the move.

After taking the mineral water with him, there was nothing left for Johnson in this place.

Although he needed a place to stay, he would definitely not choose such a location.

After all, this small storage area was really too cramped for him.

In the future, he would definitely begin creating more items such as like large-scale purification devices.

All those items would need space.

Furthermore, no one could guarantee how big the space in the system Storage was.

Therefore, it was better to have a bigger space as his base of operations.

After planning his next steps, Johnson stepped out of the basement.

According to Johnson’s memory, the basement seemed to be an abandoned factory.

The whole area could potentially be converted to form Johnson’s first base.

“The stairs are…”

Johnson looked around and tried to find his way up from the memories that were imparted to him.

But at that moment, some sounds could be heard from a room not far away.

There seemed to be a group having a conflict.

Moreover, one of them seemed to have been muffled by the other, unable to make a sound.

Johnson’s expression didn’t change.

To him, it was just a conflict between strangers. It had nothing to do with him.

He only cared about himself.

Johnson swapped out the first bottle of mineral water from the purification device, placing it inside the system Storage before retrieving another to continue the purification.

As he continued surveying his surroundings, he realised something.

The direction towards the room where the conflict was happening was the only way to get out of the basement to the abandoned factory.

Thus, even though Johnson had no intention of interfering, he still walked over.

Before he had taken more than a few steps, he could tell that it had been the last room near the corner.

Still, he continued forward as though he was oblivious.

There was a small window on the door of that room, and Johnson glanced at it as he passed.

He realized that there was a man standing guard here and observing the outside through the small window inside.

The moment the man saw Johnson, he became wary.

He immediately put on a fierce look and warned in a low voice,

“Kid, you better f*cking scram!”

Johnson frowned lightly.

He did not wish to find trouble, but trouble just loved to find him.


Johnson shifted his gaze, looking past the guard and into the room.

Great. There were two other men and a woman inside.

It was as if they were preparing to commit rape.

Clearly, the person at the door didn’t participate in this because he wanted to observe the situation outside to prevent attracting zombies or other unexpected situations.

Johnson was naturally deemed by this man as an “unexpected situation.”

What the men didn’t know, though, was that Johnson wasn’t interested in their dirty business at all and didn’t want to bother them as well.

Even in times of peace, this kind of thing would happen, let alone in this apocalyptic world. It seemed like no matter where he went, such a situation would not seem strange.

The purification device in his hand stopped whirring at this moment. Johnson absent mindedly retrieved the bottle of mineral water as he remained lost in thought.

Just as he was about to put another bottle of black mineral water into the purification device to continue, he heard the man’s excited voice.

“This brat has water!!!”
