First Encounter with Someone from the Apocalyptic World!

"Phew~"

The moment he appeared, Li Yang immediately looked at the door and windows. Seeing they were still tightly shut, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. Then he looked left and right. Seeing that everything was the same as when he left, he relaxed.

I hope there's something here that will pleasantly surprise me.

Unpacking the portable case containing the drone he was holding, Li Yang tested it. To his satisfaction, the video feed from the drone worked normally.

Looks like the money wasn't wasted.

He muttered to himself. If you looked closely, you could see that there were many items still left in the case. It was these sets of equipment that allowed the drone to function normally in this strange world.

However... whether it was because of him was still unknown. After all, no one knew if there was a data network in this world like on Earth.

Li Yang looked into the case and nodded in satisfaction. In the days he spent in Heyang, besides buying a house and doing exercises, the rest of his time was spent either exercising his body or learning how to operate a drone. Now was the time for those investments to pay off.

Following that, he quietly opened the back door of the gold store and sent the drone out. Then he quickly closed the door again, sat down on a chair inside the gold store, stared intently at the data feedback screen, and controlled the drone to take off and explore the building.

"Buzz..."

A very faint whirring sound of rotors echoed in the stairwell. As a model specifically customized by Li Yang, this drone, priced at 200,000, had reduced its flight noise to the lowest level achievable with current technology. At the same time, its video clarity, shooting distance, durability, power index, sensitivity, and stability were all top-notch.

At this moment, inside this building in the Other World, the drone took flight for the first time. Under Li Yang's quiet control, it flew steadily upwards along the stairwell.

After several turns of stairs, the second floor, reached by the staircase, appeared in his line of sight. The scattered Zombies there made Li Yang's heart feel much heavier. Looking around, he found many offices. Inside were many desks that looked very high-tech. Strangely, there were no office devices visible on the desks. The empty desktops only had some potted plants and water bottles.

Could there be something more to these desks?

A thought flashed through his mind. Li Yang immediately controlled the drone to take many clear photos of a desk for preservation. After that, he controlled the drone to continue flying upwards to explore.

This entire building seemed to be commercial space. Further up, it was almost entirely various commercial companies. But what made Li Yang somewhat solemn was that in some companies, there were even very few desks. There were only partitioned areas separated by underground lines and chairs that looked incredibly comfortable to sit on.

"Could it be that these things, once activated, will form something like computers?"

A thought flashed through Li Yang's mind. He couldn't help but continue controlling the drone to explore, trying to find something valuable that he could understand.

Eventually, the drone flew back to the second floor.

Compared to the empty spaces on the higher floors, the high-tech-looking desks on this floor were the only things he felt he could gain.

At the very least... he could take some desks.

"A total of fourteen Zombies, they seem to be cleaners of the building..."

"These cleaner Zombies... seem easy enough to kill."

Li Yang's gaze shifted slightly, watching the Zombies that were stirring, having noticed the drone's movement. His gaze shifted again, and then his heart moved. He deliberately controlled the drone to lure the few Zombies closest to the stairwell to come down the stairs.

"Hoarse... Hoarse..."

The drone led the way, its sound attracting the Zombies who stumbled down the stairs. In the process, some fell and some slid directly down. By the time the drone hovered above the area facing the back door, the number of following Zombies had decreased from five to two.

"Thump thump."

Two sounds of Crossbow shots rang out. Two arrows were suddenly fired from the small gap in the opened back door, instantly killing the two Zombies whose attention was focused on the drone.

Li Yang, behind the door, put down the Crossbow with satisfaction and resumed controlling the drone to return and speed up the luring process. When they reached the space behind the door, he hovered the drone and used the Crossbow to kill them.

Using the same method, it wasn't long before fourteen Zombies met their demise here.

To be safe, Li Yang also lured the Zombies on the third floor down and cleared them out with the Crossbow. Only then did he open the back door completely with satisfaction, slung the Miao Dao and the repeating Crossbow, and strode upstairs.

"Thump thump thump..."

After climbing dozens of steps, a rather large space appeared before his eyes. It looked a bit strange as there seemed to be no doors between the stairwells. But when he thought about this, he couldn't help but make a connection – could this be some high-tech door that was damaged for some reason and couldn't be used?

Thinking of this, Li Yang couldn't help but feel a slight stir in his heart. Looking at the no less than a hundred high-tech desks on the second floor, he rushed up excitedly and began a fierce squat-and-carry operation.

"Swish swish swish..."

Li Yang was seen holding a desk, his figure flashing, disappearing from the spot with both himself and the desk. By the time he reappeared the next moment, he was back, but the desk was gone.

After doing this one hundred and twenty times, Li Yang finally moved all these 'desks' to his house in the suburbs.

Fortunately, that house, if nothing else, had enough space...

By the time he finished moving these one hundred and twenty 'desks', it was noon. The last time he moved back, Chen Qian called to ask if he was coming back for lunch. Li Yang replied that he was eating out. Looking at the room full of high-tech desks, he was immediately full of energy and appeared in the Other World again.

He continued to move all the things on the second floor that he felt were inexplicably impressive back to the house, stopping only after three o'clock in the afternoon. When he finally looked at the pile of things that were inexplicably impressive but felt incredibly awesome, he had a feeling of striking it rich.

"So... how can I make these things useful?"

Li Yang fell into deep thought. Then he entered the Other World again, searching around on the second floor. Unfortunately, he didn't find anything resembling a product manual.

Then... he didn't know what these things were or how to use them?

Should he let scientists in the real world study them?

Don't be ridiculous...

"I wonder if there are any human survivors left in this world..."

Li Yang pondered for a moment, then launched the drone in the Other World again. This time, he controlled the drone to fly out of the building and explore the city.

"Buzz..."

The drone lightly passed through the layers of the building, reaching the seemingly deep blue sky, and began to photograph and explore the surroundings.

Desolate, broken streets, ubiquitous Zombies, and the stacked layers of buildings also showed a gray, decaying color.

As the drone ascended to a thousand meters, the dilapidated city came into view.

The drone searched around the city and finally discovered... two grimy humans inside a building.

"Someone?"

Li Yang saw the two humans appear outside the camera's view on the screen receiving the video feed. He was momentarily stunned, then a look of joy flashed across his brow.

It was good that there were people. Only with people could he communicate, better understand this world, and acquire its resources.

"Just like getting a pillow when you're sleepy."

Li Yang was excited, but immediately, a hint of caution arose in his heart—people also meant the potential for encountering malice.

However, after considering it, he still controlled the drone to approach.

Whether it was malice or goodwill, he had to make contact to gain value.

As he pondered, the drone gradually drew closer. A man and a woman, both tall but covered in grime, appeared in Li Yang's solemn gaze.
