The entire village felt like a pressure cooker that had been subjected to countless rounds of intense heat, with voices rising in a frenzy. Everyone was going mad, struggling to get up and grab something to eat to replenish their strength.
All of them were Superpowered Individuals, capable of converting energy at an astonishing rate, and their bodily functions could recover in just a few hours.
Among them, those who were Third Stage Superpowered Individuals or above recovered in just over ten minutes.
Because they were relatively stronger and had stored up resources before the disaster truly struck, they naturally recovered the fastest.
In a frenzy, they exchanged all their money for food.
Those who have never experienced hunger can never understand its terror. They felt as if the entire world was slipping away from them. Everything seemed to toll like a doomsday bell, and this was their only chance to exchange frantically.
Having supplies in hand felt secure. Moreover, it seemed that those resources would soon be completely exchanged by others.
So they went wild. Regardless of the price, they exchanged first.
The chaos of exchanges echoed throughout Qianyuan Village with frenzied shouts. As those who slowly began to recover started exchanging, they realized that the remaining supplies were no longer cost-effective. They had to wait or exchange for relatively more worthwhile items.
They dared not hold onto their Currency any longer; the System God's resources were not infinite. This was certainly due to the opening of a new System, with those who truly had stored food in Qianyuan Village contributing to it. This must be part of the System God's control over the exchanges.
They speculated about this but felt it was not bad at all; at least there was food now.
"Look! Supplies have been replenished again. Hurry and exchange!" The loud shouts erupted once more. This time, food prices had slightly increased and were even more expensive than before!
But that was fine! These people had already lost their minds. Moreover, there has always been a tendency among people to buy when prices rise rather than when they fall. Now that prices were up, everyone felt compelled to buy quickly because the next price would be even higher.
No one knew how high the prices would go.
However, they had to exchange; even at the current exchange rate, completing a task would barely allow them two meals. Yet they had accumulated quite a bit of money. In the beginning, even if the System God had no supplies, they would still participate.
This continued for a long time, leading to an ample supply of Currency for their System God.
Zheng Yifan was delighted; he aimed to make everyone spend all their money and maximize consumption. Of course, those captured Fellows considered themselves lucky. Their points could be exchanged for quite a bit of money later on.
Zheng Yifan was not going to let them leave with points so easily. Everyone had to surrender half of their assets for redemption, and only then could they exchange the remaining money for supplies.
In this way, although they still gained a significant advantage, more had already been returned to the System God.
He was not someone who would exhaust resources without thought; the System God needed to be nurtured. Since there was a channel for enhancement, it was only natural that everyone fighting on the front lines against Zombies would utilize the power of the System God. This power, while merely auxiliary, was incredibly convenient. The simplest aspect was that each person's strength would have some vague indicators, combined with their digitized bodies and information about enemies, allowing them to maximize their potential.
There were weaknesses as well. During battles, the strongest Superpowered Individuals found themselves at a disadvantage because their powers were partially restricted by the System God.
Of course, overall it was still worth it. After all, the Firearm Esper from the Hope Gathering Place had already begun to make significant progress. They were now capable of engaging in frontline combat.
Previously, they suffered greatly when attacking Zombies; often they failed to achieve headshots, and even when they shattered a Zombie into pieces, many times it did not die.
Such situations were far too common, resulting in Zombies littering the battlefield and complicating cleanup efforts.
Now it was different. At least there were baseline attacks; even if the Zombies' vital points weren't destroyed, as long as their Health Bar was depleted, they would die. The power of the System God would forcibly ensure their demise.
This was the power of rules—no one could resist it.
Perhaps only masters of Chiyou's level could defy such rules. Zheng Yifan felt that if he attempted to do so, he would inevitably be trapped. He lacked the strength to oppose the rules.
The crowd continued to buzz with excitement. They were still exchanging resources, and the power of the System God began to increase rapidly.
These powers that weren't exchanged into the System God’s system could not be integrated within it. They were private possessions of others; however, once consumed, the power would flow into the System God, beginning to nourish its strength.
Now the Primordial Pearl radiated a strong glow as segments of Vital Energy Fluctuation began to spread. Zheng Yifan knew this indicated an ongoing expansion of territory. After gaining power, the Primordial Pearl would either enhance its quality or increase its quantity.
It was currently a time for increasing quantity; as for enhancing quality, that had already surpassed a limit. After upgrading the System, it began to enhance quality.
Each upgrade represented a qualitative leap, at least granting Superpowered Individuals more room for survival.
At this moment, Zheng Yifan was studying the control panel before him. The food he provided would automatically replenish itself after being consumed within ten minutes until most people's money ran out.
Meanwhile, he was checking his own control panel. This was his authority gained after redeeming numerous resources and donating a vast amount of supplies.
Currently, there is only one option visible: the System option, which manages project applications and village construction management.
Each option requires Zheng Yifan to consume a portion of resources in exchange for Currency.
Although those Currency are consumed by the System God, the provider will generate some virtual Currency that can be used for consumption within the System.
The most obvious use is to place items that resemble NPC Houses from games.
Each house can be considered a domain, within which corresponding System power bonuses can be obtained.
These are all auxiliary abilities that were born when the System God upgraded and evolved, but they have simply not been developed until now.
Zheng Yifan would definitely not use them here; these resources must be reserved for critical moments. Once at the battlefront, with the right placements arranged, it could absolutely form a city.
A city relying on the System God. More importantly, it seems that the houses empowered by the System God can also facilitate the creation of other things.
At this moment, Zheng Yifan thought of a Superpowered Weapon Manufacturing Factory. (To be continued)
