Can Everything Be Modified? The Situation Outside!

"Jarvis, how's the route to the supermarket on Daxi Street coming along?"

After allocating the free attribute points and getting used to it for a minute or two, Ray pressed the accelerator, driving the armored vehicle away from the gas station, while asking Jarvis.

"Sir, the route has been established and imported into the vehicle's system," Jarvis's voice responded.

"Good, is the road condition okay?"

Ray glanced at the vehicle's system, driving towards the road indicated by the route, while asking.

"Sir, most of the roads in Shangbin City are basically blocked by fleeing vehicles, only this road is not completely blocked. With the performance of your vehicle, it's not difficult to forcibly clear a path as before, but the vehicle body might get somewhat damaged," Jarvis explained in a calm voice.

"Damage... That's a problem!"

Ray frowned. He had noticed some slight deformation and damage to the front of the armored vehicle while refueling it. Although it wasn't very obvious and wouldn't affect much, damage was still damage.

At that moment, he realized that no matter how powerful and crash-resistant the armored vehicle was, it was still a vehicle. If this continued, it would eventually get damaged.

Thinking this, he immediately asked the system, "System, can the armored vehicle be repaired if it's damaged?"

"Ding, depending on the extent of damage to the armored vehicle, it can be repaired by consuming corresponding points," the system's voice promptly replied.

"If it can be repaired, that's very convenient!"

Ray breathed a sigh of relief, then followed up with, "Then, based on the current damage to the vehicle, how many points are needed for the repair?"

After his follow-up question, waiting for a second, the system's voice rang out again, "Ding! Based on the current LV1 armored vehicle's extent of damage and the damaged area, 12 points are required for repair."

"12 points? How many points do I have now?"

He had been focused on the rewards he received earlier and hadn't paid attention to how many points he actually had.

"Ding! You currently have a total of 138 points!"

"138 points, considering that killing one zombie earns me one point, I've actually run over 138 zombies already. Spending 12 points is just a drop in the bucket."

Ray was somewhat taken aback by this realization, feeling surprised, but he still didn't have a clear concept of how to use the points.

"System, besides repairing the car, what else can the points be used for?"

"Ding! Points can be used to modify anything!"

The system responded, giving the answer once more.

Modify anything?

Isn't that a bit of an exaggeration?

Ray blinked, "System, are you sure it's anything?"

"Yes, host, anything can be modified, as long as the corresponding points are spent, even if it's just an iron rod, it can be modified!"

"No wonder it's called the Infinite Modification System, awesome!"

After understanding some of the system's functions, Ray felt more confident. In the end, the system is incredible, but it requires having enough points.

And points are earned by killing zombies!

In other words, if he wants to become stronger, killing zombies is the primary goal!

Of course, before that, he still needs to find a place to settle down and fill his stomach; otherwise, dying before achieving anything would be truly frustrating.

A few minutes later!

Ahead on the road, cars blocking the way gradually appeared.

Cars crashed into guardrails, electric poles, each other, rear-ended, overturned, and so on, creating chaos.

The corpses devoured to the bone and the zombies wandering in this area were countless.

Buzz—

In response, Ray, driving the armored vehicle, not only did not slow down but instead stepped on the accelerator, heading straight for them.

The roaring engine sound spread, instantly attracting the zombies wandering in the area, like hungry wolves, madly rushing towards his armored vehicle, getting hit in droves.

Bang, bang, bang—

Without any surprise, the zombies charging towards him were directly sent flying by the full-powered armored vehicle, turning into his points, and pocketed by him.

The vehicles blocking his path, upon impact with the armored vehicle, had their bodies severely dented in an instant. The next second, they turned into a pile of scrap metal, either crushed by the armored vehicle or slid to the side, hardly affecting the speed of the armored vehicle!

Moreover, Ray, sitting inside the armored vehicle, didn't feel much after crashing through these cars. He forcefully cleared a path and headed towards the distance, quickly leaving the zombies, which were crazily pouncing towards him, behind.

With his current speed, it would take only three hours to reach the supermarket on Daxi Street. And it would be a real waste to just drive there in such a boring manner for three hours.

"I wonder what the situation outside is now!"

Thinking to himself, Ray casually turned on the car radio.

However, no matter how he tuned it, he couldn't receive any signal, only hearing a 'zzz' sound from the car speakers.

With no other choice, he had to give up on the idea of learning about the outside situation through the car radio, instead turning to Jarvis, "Jarvis, help me check what the situation outside is now."

He had only been in this world for a few hours, and aside from the memories that had been instilled in him, which gave him a basic understanding of this world, he knew virtually nothing else.

Now, with the apocalypse upon them and the zombie crisis erupting, he was very eager to know what decisions the cultural and high-level officials of the countries in this world had made regarding all this.

After all, the Earth in this world is much larger than in his previous life, with a population of over 20 billion.

Not to mention, just this Shangbin City alone is a city covering an area of more than 5,000 square kilometers, with a length of over 100 kilometers and a width of over 50 kilometers, and a population of over 30 million!

If this were in his previous life, both in terms of land area and population, it could easily compare with the top ten major cities!

And such a city, in the country of Li in this world, is merely considered a third-tier city.

Thus, if the zombie crisis were to fully erupt, the problems faced and the difficulty of solving them would undoubtedly be unimaginably huge!

"Sir, I have found the news from countries around the world..."

Jarvis was incredibly fast. Within a few seconds after Ray finished speaking, using the still-functioning mobile networks, he found the situation in countries around the world. After processing the information briefly, he summarized and conveyed all the findings to him.

It turns out, this unknown zombie virus had already appeared a few months ago!

But this world is large, with a massive population, and the nations' powers are very strong. To avoid causing social panic, the high levels of various countries made the same decision.

To conceal the truth!

This is also why the traffic jam earlier was thought by many to be due to a new type of rabies!

As for the rumors on the internet, they were not rumors at all!

They were facts witnessed by people!

However, these messages were all blocked and labeled as unreliable rumors.

The situation in Shangbin City, simply put, is that the authorities could no longer suppress the spread of the zombie virus, leading to the city's fall.

Although some cities abroad have also fallen, many other urban areas are safe, and even the general public is unaware that the apocalypse has arrived.

In a way, this is somewhat similar to the fall of Raccoon City in "Resident Evil," while the outside world thought it was a prank.

After digesting this information in his mind, Ray let out a sigh of relief. At least, the situation hadn't deteriorated to the point where the entire world had fallen.

Although, this was only temporary!

But for him, even temporary safety was enough to catch his breath.

Immediately, he asked Jarvis, "What's the situation in Shangbin now? Do the high-level officials have any plans?"

"Sir, the infection situation in Shangbin City is very severe. The Ministry has already started to gradually evacuate from Shangbin City, and there has been no movement from the Military Ministry so far," Jarvis replied after checking through the internet.

"These damn bastards, running off so damn fast!"

Ray cursed under his breath, the evacuation of the Ministry's people from Shangbin was definitely not good news for him!

Because it meant that Shangbin had been abandoned by the high-level officials!

"Jarvis, continue to monitor the news from the outside world, and immediately tell me if there is any important information!"

Ray instructed, glancing at the route displayed on the vehicle's system, then fell silent.

The journey ahead was not short, and he was not driving slowly, but because he chose not to take the highway, he had to take a much longer route.

In fact, he wanted to take the highway, but with the zombie crisis erupting and survivors fleeing everywhere, even without seeing it for himself, he could imagine what the scene on the highway would be like now.

If there was a traffic jam there, it would truly be a dead end, even for him, it would not be easy to clear a path, let alone for ordinary people.

Now, following the route Jarvis had set for him, he was taking a highway, occasionally turning onto a smaller road.
