Finding a place for survivors to live, providing water sources and food, are his ways of acquiring Wish Power.
Distributing canned food and watching the survivors devour it, Mao Xuan's mind once again echoed with the Challenger Tips.
Wish Power was gained in a very easy way.
After all the survivors were full, Mao Xuan gained another 1,359 points of Wish Power.
It can be foreseen that every time he provides food henceforth, he will gain Wish Power benefits.
But as the number of times increases, the Wish Power provided by a full meal will obviously show a downward curve.
After all, after getting used to it, the initial desire would turn into a daily habit.
No longer feeling that being full is something to feel happy about.
But Mao Xuan was not concerned about how to solve this problem for now; he just wanted to earn a lot first.
As a player, he always exploited thoroughly.
He just wanted to unlock the first two skills of the Praying Life Soul.
As for the third Prayer Skill, it requires 300,000 Wish Power to unlock, something that surely can't be gathered quickly.
Gazing at the smiles on the survivors' faces, Mao Xuan also smiled happily.
After all the survivors finished their meal, he led the remaining hundred or so survivors out of the fortress shelter.
It was clear that for many survivors, it was their first time walking out of the fortress shelter, and everything outside felt incredibly novel to them.
"Don't touch the dirty blood on the ground, stay close to me."
As for where to go next, Mao Xuan had no good idea.
He planned to first take a look around the city ruins to see if there was a suitable environment to transform into a shelter, and if not, then consider leaving the city or returning to the fortress shelter.
Walking along the broken street, the gloom of the apocalypse was like a huge leaden board, pressing heavily over the city, keeping the vision dim.
Mao Xuan walked at the front of the group, his shoes creaking on the ground full of broken glass.
Behind him were the dragging footsteps of the survivors, all the more distinct in this dead silence.
Though the city below had long been abandoned, it was still possible to see the flourishing that once was.
Now, only ruins and debris remained.
The doors and windows of the street-side shops were all shattered, the faded signs dangling askew, creaking in the wind.
The towering buildings in the distance were riddled with holes, abandoned vehicles scattered haphazardly along the roadside, their surfaces covered in dust and rust.
Occasionally, dried bloodstains appeared on the ground, with the air filled with a stinging smell.
It was like a mixture of rot, gunpowder, and the scorched smell after burning.
Mao Xuan didn't feel anything unusual, but with each breath taken by the survivors behind him, their lungs seemed to burn, followed by uncontrollable violent coughs.
Unlike Mao Xuan, the survivors appeared exceptionally tense as they advanced.
Especially when they saw the remains of dead bodies on the roadside, fear would still surface in their eyes.
What surprised Mao Xuan was that, during the exploration, his mind also received Wish Power earning tips.
Evidently, in the hearts of many survivors, stepping out of the fortress shelter to look outside was also a significant wish.
It wasn't long before they encountered wandering Immortal Zombies again.
Five Immortal Zombies, upon discovering them, rushed over at an extremely fast speed.
The accompanying survivors all turned their gazes toward Mao Xuan.
The Immortal Zombies grew closer, causing the survivors to instinctively hold their breaths.
Just then, Mao Xuan swung his fist.
After the Battle Aura Attribute was activated, the fist shadow, transformed by the red air flow, swept across, dispersing the five Immortal Zombies into five clouds of black mist while running, with five indistinct clouds of blood mist separating from the black mist and merging into his body upon contact.
His mind echoed with Wish Power earning tips and Sacrificial Power earning tips as Mao Xuan led the survivors' squad to continue their journey.
They traveled a distance, with only scenes of ruin along the way.
Walking at the forefront of the team, Mao Xuan opened the Small World chat channel and issued an inquiry:
"Anyone know where a safe shelter can be established?"
"Did you find survivors up there? Give me a few, please, I've been exploring so long and haven't found anything."
"Of course, you have to build the shelter yourself; you can buy the materials at the Trading House. If you don't have the capability, how can you be a Savior? Let me take over!"
"Let the survivors do it themselves, they have limbs. You just need to ensure their safety."
...
Many players in the regional chat channel offered suggestions.
It was clear that the discovered residence must be near a water source so that survivors could survive long-term.
Furthermore, it's best if there's arable land.
Regarding this, Mao Xuan also asked this group of survivors.
But since they were all born in the fortress shelter, they knew very little about the external environment.
In the areas explored by the broken city, there were not even as many as this outsider had seen.
Arriving at the entrance of a broken store, Mao Xuan glanced inside, seeing the shelves toppled and trash scattered everywhere, long since looted clean.
Glancing at the faucet at the entrance slowly dripping with black liquid, Mao Xuan shook his head internally.
The rivers encountered along the way were also filthy; the water sources in the city were entirely unusable.
He asked the survivors how they previously solved their drinking water problem.
Blackie responded that inside the fortress, there was a complete water circulation system.
There were four ways to collect water.
Firstly, a large rainwater collection device was set up in the open area at the top of the fortress and connected to a filtration system for storage.
Secondly, there was an underground water source beneath the fortress that had been tapped with drilling equipment to create a small well, from which water was drawn into the fortress for filtration after installing a water pump.
