How does a bike make you be able to go faster and longer distances without adding any additional energy? Where is that extra energy coming from?

it's a more efficient conversation of mechanical energy to forward and backward movement because of wheels.

keep in mind the fact that we use bike's on smooth surfaces contributes quite a bit to that efficiency

This. Because wheels are 10000% more energy efficient than legs

You don't need to exert a force over a vertical distance when cycling but you do when walking.
