Apocalypse: I Hoarded 100 Billion Worth of Supplies from the Very Beginning

Chu Ning was an ordinary university student who had endured a harsh childhood after her parents died in an accident. Left in the care of her neglectful uncle, she spent ten years living in a storage room while he stole her inheritance. After reclaiming her parents' apartments and savings through legal action, she lived a quiet, solitary life. Seven days before the apocalypse, she was reborn, retaining vivid memories of her previous life. In that past timeline, she had awakened a Wood-type ability but was ultimately betrayed and killed by her so-called best friend, Song Xiaoxiao, who coveted the red bead Chu Ning had worn since childhood. Upon waking, Chu Ning discovered the bead was actually a portable spatial storage containing a four-story villa, an underground warehouse, and arable land. The space could preserve food indefinitely, keeping it fresh and hot, which proved to be an invaluable asset for survival.

With only seven days remaining before the black rain would transform humanity into zombies, Chu Ning dedicated every waking moment to stockpiling supplies. She liquidated her remaining assets, spending millions of yuan on bulk food, water, medicine, clothing, and weapons. She rented a warehouse and a cold storage facility, filling them with thousands of kilograms of rice, flour, beans, meat, and vegetables. She also purchased hundreds of barrels of water, medical supplies, and hygiene products. Recognizing the importance of mobility and defense, she bought a seven-seater van and later acquired modified off-road vehicles and a Hummer H1. She stocked up on generators, solar panels, and fuel, ensuring she would have power and transportation when the grid failed. Her preparations were meticulous, covering everything from daily necessities to luxury items she could trade for resources later.

During her preparations, Chu Ning encountered Qin Mo, a senior student council president who would become a major leader in the apocalypse. He provided her with a government warning about an impending severe polluted rainstorm, a detail that differed from her previous life where no such warning existed. This advance notice gave her extra time to prepare. Chu Ning also acquired two Tang swords and various melee weapons. As the apocalypse approached, she cooked massive quantities of food, storing them in her spatial dimension to ensure she would have ready-to-eat meals without needing to cook during the disaster. She downloaded offline maps, entertainment, and survival guides, and filled her apartment with water before the power went out.

The apocalypse arrived two days earlier than in her previous life. The sky turned dark, and black rain began to fall, causing those exposed to it to transform into flesh-eating zombies. Chu Ning, protected inside her locked apartment, fell into a deep sleep as the rain ceased. When she awoke, she had awakened dual abilities: a Wood-type power for healing and plant growth, and a Fire-type power for offense. Her spatial storage had also expanded, doubling the size of her underground warehouse and increasing her time limit inside the dimension to one hour. With her new powers and abundant supplies, she began her post-apocalyptic survival. She first secured a fuel tanker from a nearby gas station, storing it in her dimension. She then drove to a large shopping mall, engaging in what she termed a "free shopping spree." She looted supermarkets, clothing stores, jewelry shops, and furniture stores, filling her spatial storage with food, down jackets, jade with spiritual energy, and high-end furniture to decorate her villa.

As she navigated the deserted, rain-soaked streets, Chu Ning encountered zombies for the first time. She used her baseball bat and newfound combat skills to fend them off. Her journey was not without tension; she remained wary of Song Xiaoxiao, knowing her former friend would eventually seek the red bead. The government warning had saved many lives, but chaos still reigned as society collapsed. Chu Ning's primary goal was survival and revenge. She had secured a self-sufficient base in her spatial storage, complete with fresh food, water, and defenses. As she drove back to her apartment complex, she spotted zombies in the stairwell, signaling that the world had changed irrevocably. She was no longer the passive victim of her past life but a prepared survivor with the power to shape her own destiny, ready to face the horrors of the new world and settle old scores.
