Long Yu who had exited the building, shook his head. He did not know if the lady would believe him, but he wanted to give her a warning nonetheless.

Although doomsday has yet to arrive, the impending danger has always been eating at his mind.

Even if he tried to warn everyone, no one would probably believe him. Most people have the tendency to only believe what they can see after all.

With the government being aware of the mutation, if an insignificant figure like him were to claim to know their secrets, troubles would ensue for sure.

The best case scenario would be the government inviting him for a chat. The worst case would probably be him being silenced for good.

Besides, no one knows the results of every individual's mutation. A mother feeding her baby, could possibly turn into a man eating corpse all of a sudden, and attack her own baby. Long Yu shivered at the thought of this.

Standing not far from the casino's entrance, Long Yu looked at the duffle bag, before slipping his right hand inside. Feeling the weight of the bag suddenly disappear, he sighed in relief.

The money inside had just been stored into the system. At least he doesn't have to worry about lugging piles of bills home, every time he leaves the casino.

Looking at the amount of currency that he owned on the holographic screen, he still felt that his current method of amassing wealth, was too slow.

365,000 yuan would only allow him to exchange for the x-ray contact lenses twice, which was not enough for long sessions of gambling.

So, in order to speed things up, Long Yu made up his mind to visit the best gambling destination that his country has to offer, Macau.

.....

3 weeks passed.

Long Yu was looking out the glass window from the highest floor of Macau's most expensive hotel.

The suite that he was in was the grandest and most luxurious one that he has stayed in so far.

It has everything one could ever imagine, from personal elevators, to pools and to high class escorts.

However, there was no joy or pleasure on Long Yu's face. Rather, it was ridden was worry and distress. He was running out of time!

It wasn't as if he hadn't prepared himself for the approaching doomsday. But the thought of almost the entirety of humanity, wanting to hunt you down for the genes inside you, was disconcerting to say the least.

[72,455,000 yuan]

This was the amount that Long Yu had earned after three long weeks of gambling. It was a constant cycle of gamble, eat and sleep.

He had tried his hand at almost every casino games that would let him earn money faster than blackjack.

In the end, poker was the most lucrative one. Playing poker against those rich high rollers boosted his daily earnings considerably.

Of course, he did not forget to take measures during his gambling spree.

While he was in Macau, he switched from one casino to another every half a day to avoid attracting too much attention.

Trying to earn tens of millions of yuan from one casino alone was suicidal. Luckily, Macau had more than enough casinos for him to do so.

The top contributor to his escapade though, was an item that he exchanged from the system.

[Perfect Mimic Mask](Consumable)

[Allows wearer to change the form and features of the face to perfectly mimic someone else's. Can be activated and deactivated at will]

[Allows wearer to alter the voice to perfectly mimic someone else's. Can be activated and deactivated at will]

[Activation duration: 6 hours]

[Exchange Price: 200,000 yuan]

Not only did the mask allow him to change his appearance, he could even change his voice into a woman's if he wanted to. Essentially, with the mask, he could pretend to become anyone he wanted.

Although it was pretty costly, considering the amount of masks that he needed to exchange throughout the weeks, it was worth it.

Never would the casinos have imagined that the same person would dare come back and rip them off time and time again.

As for identity authentication, it was easily solved by exchanging for genuine copies of the mimicked person's identification from the system.

Long Yu had chosen to use the identities of individuals back from Nanjing, in order to avoid causing trouble for them. Anyway, with the world turning into a hellhole in less than a week, losing a few million yuan would be the least of those casinos' worries.

Shifting his gaze from the myriad of beautiful lights emitted from the city buildings outside, Long Yu's eyes landed on the pile of items by his feet.

Those items ranged from common everyday items, to restricted military weapons.

During his stay in Macau, Long Yu had exchanged for various items from the system. He had wanted to test the types of items he could exchange for, that would help him survive doomsday.

He bent down and picked up a solid tubular object, before stroking its cold metallic surface. It was a hand gun that he exchanged from the system on a whim.

[Desert Eagle Mark XIX]

[A gas-operated, semi-automatic pistol with a 7 round capacity]

[Exchange Price: 23,000 yuan]

Long Yu marvelled at the gun's silver chrome body as he slowly aimed it at the window.

*Click* *Click*

There was no bullet in the chamber. Long Yu had taken precautions to remove magazine in case of misfire.

Since China was strict with its gun laws, no civilians were allowed to own a gun.

Although Long Yu felt the itch to test the guns out, he held himself back to avoid attracting unnecessary troubles.

With a flick of his hand, the handgun that he was holding disappeared. It was a nifty trick he discovered during his exchanges.

It seems that any items sold by the system, similarly to currency, could be stored within it as well. Items outside of the system however, were not allowed.

This discovery made Long Yu feel happy and disappointed at the same time, since it meant that any resources that he collected outside, would have to be stored somewhere else.

Luckily, the system did provide him with a solution.

'System, show me my last item searches on storage treasures,' he called out.

Long Yu drooled at the sight of these storage treasures. There were a few items with similar functions, but these were the two that he had set his eyes on.
