Chapter 2: An Armored Vehicle Like a Steel Monster

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Hearing the voice that suddenly appeared in his mind, Xu Qi subconsciously thought that he was hallucinating.

But the voice echoed vividly in his mind.

In addition, the situation was urgent. Because of the vehicle’s deformation, he was wedged in the driver’s seat and couldn’t even move. There was nothing else he could do except trust this illusory system.

“Roar!”

Not far away, a twisted zombie roared angrily and pounced over without hesitation. There was even some crimson red mangled flesh hanging from its black, sharp claws.

Even though Xu Qi had a calmer disposition than his peers, he still found it difficult to calm down at this moment of life and death!

“Phew… I choose the third option!”

Xu Qi’s mind raced as he hastily made a choice.

The terrifying zombies outside almost crawled in through the car window. He didn’t have any time to waste.

However, he still made the most appropriate decision at this moment.

Although the highly mobile Harley-Davidson was very suitable for navigating traffic jams, the zombie virus had already spread rapidly through the entire street.

If he wasn’t careful, he might be pounced on by the zombies. Moreover, the motorcycle couldn’t provide any protection. As long as he was scratched by the zombies, there was a high chance that he would be infected and become a zombie himself.

Although the municipal ambulance was equipped with a lot of medical supplies, ordinary vehicles could not get him out of the current situation.

Only heavy trucks or armored vehicles could charge out of the completely jammed main street.

Therefore, the best option was option 3—armored vehicle. As for the additional smart driving system, it was not something Xu Qi should consider now.

[Choice made. Reward: The following. Congratulations to the host for obtaining a new armored recreational vehicle, 9.0 Noah Smart System.]

[Do you want to modify the current vehicle into a new armored recreational vehicle?]

The voice in his mind immediately made Xu Qi even more convinced that he had the God-level selection system. He immediately shouted without hesitation, “Confirm modification!”

At this moment, half of the zombie’s body was already in the car. Xu Qi smelled a pungent stench of decay and blood.

The zombie in front of him had a huge hole in its chest. Its internal organs were scattered on the ground, but it did not feel anything. It was no different from the living dead in horror movies.

Xu Qi had just made his choice when the distorted car he was in immediately changed.

The zombie on his right was instantly sent flying by a huge force.

At the same time, the shattered windshield around him was being repaired at a visible speed.

[The current vehicle is 70% new Jetta. It is being modified… It will take approximately five minutes.]

In the blink of an eye, Xu Qi realized that the vehicle had been installed with bulletproof glass.

The interior of the car immediately became spacious. The faux leather interior linings had been replaced by real leather seats.

Through the rearview mirror, Xu Qi saw that the exterior of the car, which had been damaged by the wind and rain, was now covered with layers of dark and heavy iron plates.

This vehicle doubled the protection offered by the old car. The car slowly lengthened and the original hollow tires turned into solid tires that were bulletproof.

At this moment, the modification had been going on for about two minutes. The driver’s seat of the car had undergone a drastic change.

Now the driver’s seat in the car was partitioned from the rest of the vehicle. The interior space was more than three times larger than before.

In front of him was a high-tech console. The steering wheel material was completely different from before. There were also many joysticks and buttons beside it.

The display screen that was originally only a few inches long had turned into a huge LCD screen that displayed various data and status updates about the car in real time.

Through the panoramic camera on the roof of the car, Xu Qi discovered that the original Jetta had been modified into an armored vehicle that could withstand the next cannonball!!

The front of the car was much wider than before. It was completely clad in steel plates. Moreover, there was a bumper made of titanium alloy in front of the car. The chassis of the car was also raised to 60 centimeters, enough to handle all kinds of roads.

At this level of strength, Xu Qi was confident that he could smash the truck that had turned his car into scrap metal!

What surprised Xu Qi the most was the change in the interior of the car. Not only was there a driver’s seat in the car, but the area behind was also separated by a classy sliding door.

It consists of a kitchen, bedroom, driver’s room, and bathroom. The entire armored RV had an area of 80 square meters. It could be said to be complete!

After Xu Qi finished touring happily, he quickly returned to the driver’s seat.

After all, there were still zombies outside. It was best to leave as soon as possible.

[Ding… The car has been modified into the basic edition of an armored recreational vehicle. The information on the modified vehicle is as follows.]

Model: Armored RV Basic Edition

Space configuration: bedroom, kitchen, bathroom, living room

Weapon configuration: Unequipped

Shell strength: Grade E (Can resist ordinary bullets and grenades)

Maximum speed: 260 km/h

(Can upgrade to advanced edition if conditions are met.)

Looking at the information displayed on the screen in front of him, Xu Qi nodded in satisfaction.

Although this armored vehicle was only an ordinary edition, it was enough to resolve the current crisis. The rest of the people on the street were still fleeing and might be in danger at any time.

He had solved the problem of life and safety. The armored vehicle already had basic defense capabilities. He would not be in any danger for the time being.

Although the conditions in the car were not luxurious, he knew that this armored RV could be upgraded. Just the basic edition was already so powerful.

If it’s upgraded to the advanced edition, I will be able to live comfortably in the apocalypse in the future. This feels great.

Xu Qi thought happily. At this moment, a translucent figure suddenly appeared on the big screen in front of him.

“Noah Smart System is being installed. Good afternoon, Master. It’s good to see you.”

A young and calm voice came from the LCD screen, giving him a sense of security.

Xu Qi raised his eyebrows and looked at the translucent image on the display screen with satisfaction.

He was not too familiar with this armored RV yet. Indeed, he needed the support of the system. Moreover, the Noah System might be able to give him some practical advice in the future. It was much better than fighting single-handedly.

Now that the apocalypse had dawned, it was no longer rare for lovers and friends to turn against each other and kill each other. It was best to have a loyal subordinate.

Thinking of this, Xu Qi smiled and nodded. “With your help, I’m relieved.”

“Thank you for your trust, Master. Noah has already been installed and is starting up. Please wait a moment…”

Xu Qi turned his gaze to what was going on not far away.

Through the wide bulletproof glass, he could see that it was a complete mess outside.

The zombie virus had only spread for a few minutes, but more than half of the people outside had died.

Only some lucky or agile people escaped back into the cars. All of them were terrified and flustered.

However, these people in ordinary cars couldn’t hold out for long. Because of the noise, the remaining zombies kept gathering. They even overturned many cars and dragged the survivors out to eat them.

Compared to the others, Xu Qi was much calmer.

He no longer had to worry about safety. The only thing he needed to consider was clean water and food.
