Chapter 12 Emptying a Warehouse Worth Billions of Dollars
Steven instructed the delivery person to send 100 giant water barrels to the warehouse.
Then, he had them placed inside the space and brought them back home.
Upon returning home, Steven began opening all the faucets in the house and filling the water barrels.
At this rate, he could finish filling all 100 barrels in a week.
Days passed by.
Steven was never idle for a single day.
He spent all his money without any hesitation.
Every day, he dined at the best restaurants.
He purchased large quantities of food from top restaurants and stored them in his extradimensional space.
During this time, he visited the shooting range in Starlight City every day to practice archery and firearms, striving to improve his skills.
It was unrealistic to become a combat expert in just one month.
But with bows, firearms, and a super safe house with a full metal shell, he would fear no danger.
Such actions naturally did not avoid everyone's notice.
However, everyone around Steven treated him as a joke.
They thought he had mental issues and mocked him behind his back.
Even Alice intentionally distanced herself from Steven and refused to communicate with him.
And so, time passed day by day.
Soon, over twenty days had passed, and the end of the world was approaching.
Steven had gathered a massive amount of supplies, including food, weapons, and heating equipment.
However, these were not enough to provide him with a sense of security.
He decided to target the giant Walmart warehouse.
By taking over this warehouse, he could have a vast amount of supplies that he would never be able to use up in his lifetime!
Why didn't he wait until the last day to act? Because Steven remembered that in his previous life, he vaguely heard that the higher-ups had received advance notice of the gamma ray's arrival.
So they quietly started transferring a large amount of supplies while ordinary people remained unaware.
Steven didn't dare to take the risk; he had to act in advance.
Moreover, considering this logic, even if all the supplies in the Walmart warehouse disappeared, the high-ranking officials desperate to seek refuge wouldn't have much energy to investigate.
It provided Steven with a suitable buffer period.
So, Steven returned to the warehouse and resumed his normal duties.
There were people on duty at the Walmart warehouse 24 hours a day, but the number decreased to only ten at night.
Steven decided to use the most straightforward method--adding sleeping pills to the water.
Since the end of the world was only three days away, he wasn't afraid of being caught.
Steven was familiar with them, so he easily succeeded.
After the effects of the pills kicked in and they fell into a deep sleep, Steven went to the control room and turned off all the warehouse cameras!
He knew the place so well that he could visualize every corner with his eyes closed. With numerous plans and rehearsals in his mind, he executed everything smoothly.
After completing it, he changed into oversized shoes, put on gloves, and quickly made his way to the warehouse.
Looking at the enormous warehouse in front of him, Steven took a deep breath and began collecting the supplies.
Just by scanning the shelves with his eyes, he could transport the entire shelf into his extradimensional space with a single thought.
Steven first went to the beverage area.
There were tens of thousands of tons of mineral water, beverages, and alcohol stored here, including many high-end red wines and wines.
Steven didn't discriminate; he stored everything in his space.
Soon, thousands of cubic feet of beverages disappeared.
Next was the fuel area for daily necessities.
There were many smokeless coals, barrels of gasoline, and alcohol here.
They were all for home use, reserves, or picnics.
There existed tens of thousands of boxes of smokeless coal alone, not to mention the solid alcohol and barrels of gasoline.
The quantity here was enough for Steven to use for hundreds of years!
Steven didn't consider leaving some for others. After the apocalypse, these things wouldn't fall into the hands of ordinary people anyway.
So he collected all these supplies without hesitation.
Then, with his years of expertise in warehousing, he allocated areas for them in the extradimensional space for easy access.
This way, it would be convenient for him to use them.
The third step was the food area.
The quantity here was even larger, with tens of thousands of tons! The packed warehouses was like small mountains.
Canned foods, packaged roasted chicken, duck, puffed foods, convenience foods, high-end snacks, and more.
"This is enough for me to eat for ten lifetimes!" Steven exclaimed.
He wasn't picky; he took whatever he found.
After collecting the food, Steven moved on to the sports equipment area.
Sports equipment was essential for his safe house.
He exercised regularly to stay healthy and ensure his survival when necessary.
Although the space in the safe house was limited, he didn't let go of anything he could take. Since the extradimensional space was unlimited in size, he wanted to take everything.
Among them were some particularly useful items.
For example, baseball bats and fencing swords - were excellent weapons.
During the collection process, Steven found some exceptionally useful items.
For example, skiing and mountaineering equipment, including professional-grade cold-resistant suits worn by national athletes.
These items could withstand temperatures as low as minus one hundred degrees! They were the latest technological products of 2050.
Steven's eyes lit up; these would be the top-notch cold-resistant equipment after the Frosty Apocalypse arrived!
He collected dozens of sets of top-grade cold-resistant suits and sleeping bags from the warehouse without hesitation.
After two hours, Steven had emptied the Walmart warehouse, which covered millions of square feet!
After completing these tasks, he looked at the vast and empty warehouse, feeling indescribably satisfied.
Now, even in the face of a freezing ice age, he had the confidence to live comfortably!
Steven returned to his workplace, took off his gloves and shoes, and placed them in the extradimensional space.
Then he drank some water laced with sleeping pills, falling into a deep sleep on the table.
After an unknown period, he was abruptly awakened by someone in a hurry.
"Sir, Sir, something big has happened. Wake up!"
Steven slowly opened his eyes, looking confused at the colleagues in front of him.
"What's wrong?"
A warehouse worker pointed at the warehouse, trembling, and said, "It's absurd! Our warehouse has been completely emptied!"
"What!"
Steven stood up in surprise, slapping the table.
He pretended to be anxious and went to the warehouse, naturally seeing the empty scene.
Steven knew better than anyone what had happened.
However, he pretended to be shocked and tremblingly asked, "What on earth happened? How did all the supplies in the warehouse disappear!"
The surrounding employees were also nervous.
"Yes, the value of the goods in this warehouse is at least worth billions of dollars! Even with large trucks, it would take several days to transport. How did they all disappear in the blink?"
They didn't mention the sleeping incident, as it was common for them to take a nap during the night shift.
With a stern face, Steven paced back and forth, pretending to be anxious.
Then he said to everyone, "This situation is too bizarre for us to handle. Let's call to inform the higher-ups!"
Although everyone was nervous, they weren't too frightened.
As the situation escalated, they felt less responsible.
Earning only a few thousand dollars a month, they didn't need to go all out for the company.
So, when Steven suggested calling the higher-ups, everyone readily agreed.
Let these leaders deal with this troublesome matter!
Steven immediately called the warehouse manager to report the incident.
After hearing the news, the manager was dumbfounded, even thinking Steven was joking with him.
