Chapter 1

【001】Pull the wool as hard as possible

The streets were messy, screams could be heard everywhere, a group of people were surrounding one person and biting him, blood was spurting out, and the road was covered in blood, as if it was the end of the world.

No, it should be said that it is the end of the world.

Yates stood in front of the window, looking at the scene outside. He couldn't help but pursed his lips and called the system in his heart.

Yates is a fast-travel tasker who had been acting as a cannon fodder. After the cannon fodder series of tasks were completed, he was rewarded with a vacation world. As a result, an accident happened. After diligently building a small village into a city in another world, he returned to the fast-travel world and received the promotion reward.

Originally when she thought she could just sit back and enjoy herself after choosing the BUG, her first mission after returning to the fast-travel world turned out to be the apocalyptic world.

In a world like the apocalypse? Can she bug it?

She had a feeling that she had been deceived by the system again.

Soon, the system bubbled up.

[Ding! Host, the upgraded BUG system greets you. ]

Good? Are you sure the situation is good now?

Sensing that something was wrong with Yeats' tone, the system checked the tasks it had received and was also stunned.

[Host, something seems to be wrong. After the upgrade, the system should help you accept the tasks of the intermediate world, but the Doomsday World is a high-level world! Host, wait, let me ask the Lord.]

After leaving these words, the system went silent.

After returning after a while, the system's voice had changed a little.

[Host, when I first read the description of the BUG system, I forgot to read a sentence. ]

[BUG system: Do nothing, do not move, you can give rewards to the host at will, but... (But - if a person has no dreams, what is the difference between him and a BUG? Give the golden finger with the maximum authority. The greater the golden finger, the greater the responsibility.)]

[I only read the first sentence and forgot to read the small print at the end. The Lord God meant that the BUG system would upgrade the task level. If the system determines that the host can complete the intermediate tasks, then after being upgraded to the BUG system, the host will need to complete the advanced tasks.]

Yates: ...So what is my mission now?

The next moment after he finished speaking, a control panel appeared in front of Yates, with a task notification on it.

[Host: Yates]

[BUG value: 0]

[BUG Mall: BUG value can be exchanged for goods]

[Task: Create a developable base and retain the human fire. The more humans survive, the higher the reward points will be. 】

[Task progress: 0/100]

[Accumulated points: 0]

Keeping human fire? Is this world dangerous?

[Host, this world is heading towards destruction. Meteors falling from the sky bring not only zombie viruses, but also various natural disasters... The host can look at the upper right corner. 】

Yates took a quick look and saw a weather forecast in the upper right corner of the page.

[Tsunami countdown: 30 days. 】

Seeing Yates's reaction, the system felt a little embarrassed, as if it had led the host into a deep pit, and couldn't help but defend itself.

[If the host can complete this task, the points will be very high! 】

Yates: Can the promotion direction be changed? I think the female supporting system, the red envelope system and so on are quite good.

Zombie type plus natural disaster type apocalypse, what kind of BUG system is needed?

[Once promoted, it cannot be changed unless you are promoted again. Host, your points are currently zero. You need 100 points to advance, and you need to complete several tasks! 】

Yates: Haha!

[Host, I can give you many rewards within my authority, which will definitely help you complete the task as soon as possible. 】

After calming down for a moment, Yates continued: Are there any restrictions on rewards?

[As long as the host has BUG behavior, it will be fine. 】

Yates: It's really good to let me complete difficult tasks while letting me have bugs.

[Host, didn’t you still have a bug in the last world to complete the task? You can do it! 】

Yeates twitched his lips when he heard this. Is the last mission comparable to this one?

She is naive!

How can the BUG system in the fast travel world be a real BUG?

It's just... forget it, such a deceptive promotion direction was her choice.

Yates then began to sort out the memory of the original owner.

Now is the first day of the apocalypse. I am alone at home, and I have just bought a lot of supplies to prepare for the official examination and go ashore.

As for my family, I was originally an orphan. Let alone my family, I didn’t have many friends, so I was enjoying myself alone.

Late last night, the original person also heard the loud noises outside one after another, but because he stayed up too late, fell into a deep sleep and was too lazy to get up, he failed to evolve in his sleep. If it hadn't been for the arrival of Yates, the original person would have become one of the zombies. member.

Suddenly, Yates couldn't help but stroke his forehead.

where he was originally located, happens to be a coastal city, and its long coastline attracts countless tourists every year.

But now that the tsunami is coming, City F is undoubtedly facing this natural disaster head-on.

Creating a safe place is urgent.

You said you could reward me as much as possible and give me an absolutely safe territory?

[No, the system can only reward BUG values, and the host can use the BUG values to redeem the required products through the BUG mall. 】

Where's the BUG mall?

[Requires the system to have a BUG value before it can be enabled. ]

After listening to this, Yates went straight back to bed and lay down.

system......

[Ding! The host has BUG behavior, BUG value +1, BUG mall is open. ]

Hearing this, Yates looked at the BUG mall, and sure enough, he saw that the mall on the panel was lit up. After clicking it directly, a mall appeared in front of Yates, with all kinds of goods on it, arranged according to the BUG value.

【Product: Dali Pills】

[BUG value: 1]

[Description: Can add 1 point of strength, upper limit is 10, infinite strength. ]

【Product: Run Fast】

[BUG value: 1]

[Description: Can add 1 point of speed, the upper limit is 10, misty without a trace]

In addition, there are also clairvoyance, wind ears, etc. Although each item is relatively low in price, it requires multiple purchases.

Even higher ones, such as metal, wood, water, fire, earth and other multi-system abilities, all require bug values ranging from 10 points or more, and the purchased abilities are all primary abilities.

Continuing to look down, construction-related items began to appear, with different prices. The most expensive of them were several large-scale basic buildings, including safe houses, hotels, fortresses, etc.

The BUG value of these buildings is 100, and the functional descriptions are that the owner is invincible within his own range and can be upgraded under the owner's management.

After looking at the products in the BUG mall, Yates was thoughtful.

The merchandise that the BUG Mall can provide is of great use, but it also seems to be limited, as if it is specifically designed to serve the tasks of this world.

After exchanging these goods, the host will have enough to live a peaceful life in this world, but if he wants to use them to complete tasks in this world, the host will need to spend more effort.

It is obviously also assistance.

It is similar to the city-building mission in the previous world.

It's too much of a coincidence!

Ye Ci even wondered, if he had advanced through something other than the BUG system, would he also need to start from this world?

Forget it. The system and the Lord God themselves are very mysterious. She was able to be reborn because of them. With her current status, there is no point in delving into it.

Get to work!

Then Yates directly chose to exchange for the powerful pills.

Soon, a black ball appeared in Yates' backpack. He took it out and put it in his mouth. He felt a bitter taste in his mouth. It went down his throat in no time, and he suddenly felt energized all over.

Then he casually tried it on the corner of the table, and saw that the corner broke off at once.

It's the end of the world. Is there anything more important than skills?

It is imperative to have more products that improve physical fitness.

For several days, Yates ate and slept in this rental house, accompanied by various BUG values of the system +1, +1... He used this opportunity to improve his existing physical fitness.

Originally, Yates wanted to save more money, until one day, when he heard the sound of the door lock being pried open.

Yates, whose hearing was enhanced, soon heard the noise coming from outside.

There is only one little girl living in this house. Before the end, I saw that she bought a lot of things, and the takeaway delivery man was carrying a lot of things!

What if she turns into a zombie?

There is only one of her who has turned into a zombie. She is no better than the bunch outside. If she hadn't turned into a zombie, how could she, a girl, stand up to two of us grown men? It's the end of the world now.

Along with the sound, their movements became louder and louder.

[Host, come on, deal with them. How dare you worry about the host and the host's things. 】

Upon hearing this, Yates took the kitchen knife directly from the kitchen and opened the door.

The moment the door opened, the two people at the door froze in place. When they saw that Yeates was a human being, their eyes were about to move.

But the next second, their eyes were fixed on Yates's hands.

Because they saw that the kitchen knife in Yates's hand was bent into a curved shape with just a slight twist in her hand.

shock!

stranger!

They only found out in the past two days that although many people turned into zombies after the doomsday, many people also turned into people with special powers. It is much easier for these people with special powers to deal with zombies than for ordinary people like them.

And this person who looked like a power type was facing them...

We thought this place was empty! Sorry to bother you!

After saying that, the two men turned around and ran away, soon disappearing from sight.

[System, I didn't do anything just now, is there a BUG value? ]

The system was still lamenting that its host seemed to be too soft-hearted, but the next moment, it suddenly stood up.

【Ding! The host has BUG behavior, and the BUG value is +2. 】

Hehe, it's different now than before. The host can blatantly make bugs, and it can help the host gather wool as it likes.

Satisfied with the reward, Yates returned to the window.

After a few days, the zombie group below has further expanded, wandering around in the streets below, and wherever there is sound, they can be seen.

Especially since this is a residential area, zombies can't help but gather here.

At this moment, screams suddenly came from downstairs. When Yates looked over, he saw two or three people running towards the community, with many zombies following behind them.

After they entered the gate, earth walls rose up outside the gate, blocking some zombies from outside.

As for the zombies that were introduced, someone would immediately use weapons or superpowers to deal with them.

And after they fell to the ground, a fire superpower burned their bodies completely, and all that remained on the ground were bright crystals.

[Host, this is the crystal core, which will become the world’s currency and an important source of energy in the future. 】

The 999 system explained in Yates' mind.

Is this energy source also useful to me? Yates said firmly. The system would not mention this crystal core for no reason.

[Yes, it is useful for the host! ] The system hinted crazily.

I won't kill zombies now if it works! Yates said lazily, understanding.

【Ding! If the host has BUG behavior, the BUG value will be +1. 】

The next moment after giving the reward, Yates began to pack up his things, straightened the kitchen knife, and went out.

Well! Let’s go kill the zombies!

Chapter 2

【002】Open the hotel

As soon as I went out, the corridor was quiet, as if no one was around. Walking down the stairs, I could see some bloodstains left on the road, which had obviously been cleaned up.

Thinking about the scene he saw outside the window before, Yates understood. It was probably done by those psychics. They regarded this community as their base camp and relied on it to hunt zombies.

Sure enough, when Yates walked out from downstairs, the entire community was quite clean, and there were no zombies. All the way to the gate of the community, a group of people had repeated their old tricks and attracted a new batch of zombies.

But unlike what Yates had seen before, this group of people killing zombies were obviously different from the previous ones. They did not use superpowers, but the most primitive fighting methods. Everyone's hands and necks were wrapped with thick cloth strips, and they used sharp knives of various colors to kill the zombies.

Yates paid a little attention and found that they were two different doors.

It turns out that the community has been divided into a team of people with special abilities and a team of ordinary people?

Just as Yates was thinking about it, a zombie broke through the encirclement of several people during a gap. Those who could provide support had already moved quickly, but the zombie still howled and pounced on one person.

The man was a little frightened and stood there in a daze.

Just as he was about to be knocked down by the zombie, the kitchen knife in Yates's hand flew out and chopped into the zombie's neck, causing the zombie to fall to the ground with a bang.

Everyone was also startled by this scene. They glanced in the direction of Yeates and gave her a grateful look, but they quickly continued to deal with the remaining zombies.

It was also at this time that the system dinged in Yates' mind.

【Ding! The host kills zombies and the mission progress increases by 0.00000...01]

Yates: ...

Better than nothing, Yates pulled out the kitchen knife from the fallen zombie, and then joined the team, slashing one at a time.

Because of Yates's help, the leaders of the team not only eliminated the zombies trapped in the community, but also opened a hole in the door, letting in a steady stream of zombies from outside.

I don't know how long it took, but the corpses of zombies were all over the ground. The zombies around were temporarily killed, and everyone let out a long sigh.

There was no time to rest, and some people immediately carried big bags and went to the convenience store at the door.

After a short while, everyone had a lot of food and drinks and carried them back to the community.

They returned with a full load and no one was injured, so everyone was quite happy.

It was also at this time that everyone was in the mood to greet Yates.

The middle-aged man in the lead looked at Yeates and asked, Are you from this community?

Um.

Thank you for what I have said just now. If it weren't for you, our operation wouldn't have been so smooth. Since you have pretty good skills, would you like to join us? With your skills, you can get a lot of daily necessities. The middle-aged man said to Yates kindly, with a tone that hinted at winning him over.

After all, Yates's skills are visibly strong.

It's just a piece of cake. As for joining you, I'm sorry, I'm used to being alone. Yates responded.

It doesn't matter. Joining or not is purely a personal choice. Hearing her words, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed unconsciously, but he still spoke.

At this time, the people in the team dug up all the crystal cores. The middle-aged man picked out half of them and handed them to Ye Ci, This is your crystal core.

Yates did not refuse, took it, and then walked outside.

Looking at her back, a man next to the middle-aged man couldn't help but ask, Brother Zhou, she is a girl, but she is so skilled and strong, is she... a superpower?

should be.

She is a superpower in our community. We should let her join. This way, our side will be safer. The other superpowers have been lured away over there. The person asking the question was a little anxious.

But she has clearly refused, and we can't stop her. Let's pay more attention to her in the future! If she comes back again, we will sincerely invite her a few more times. The middle-aged man, Zhou Shan, noticed that Ye Ci was already carrying luggage, and it was bulging, not empty.

I will definitely come back. The situation outside right now is such that even a person with superpowers can't guarantee that he can escape unscathed. Previously, there was a person who thought he had acquired a fire power and dared to go out alone, but the result was...

Zhou Shan did not continue the topic and continued: Move all the things back! Distribute them together.

There is only a convenience store here, and the inventory is limited. I'm afraid it won't last long. Someone else joins the other side with the allocated supplies. They only see that the team has many people with super powers. Why can't they see them using ordinary people to lure them? Zombies, they turned into zombies accidentally. The man couldn't help but say.

Forget it, just take it one day at a time! Zhou Shan whispered.

Everyone was silent, and then continued to move their gains back with gentle steps. As for the corpses of the zombies they had dealt with, they would be piled at the entrance of the community.

Although these corpses block their path, they can block some zombies for them to a certain extent.

This is what ordinary people can think of.

But they also found that the blocking effect was getting weaker and weaker. Just as they had originally guessed, zombies would evolve, and it would be more and more difficult for them to obtain food in the future.

Thinking of this, Zhou Shan let out a long sigh.

The end! Where should ordinary people like them go?

On this side, as soon as Yetz left the community, zombies smelled the fresh flesh and blood and rushed toward Yetz.

Facing these zombies, Yates was naturally merciless. He would chop down one of them, or a pair of them.

With his enhanced body, Yates can be said to be invincible at this moment.

Yeates's killing was also seen by many people hiding at home, and they shouted at Yeates through the window.

Can you send us some supplies? We have been at home for several days, and we have almost finished the food. If there is no more food, we will starve to death.

Please, I can give you lots of money.

You are so powerful, food is nothing to you, please help us!

...

Listening to these voices, Yates turned a blind eye, and soon the voices changed.

Why are you so cold!

You are so strong, why don't you help us.

As humans, you should help us. If you don't, we will die.

The sound became louder and louder. Many zombies in the house were already roaring through the windows. There were also many zombies around who were heading towards the source of the sound. When they saw Yeates, they all rushed towards Yeates eagerly. Come over.

The residents did not dare to speak, but they looked closely at the surrounded Yeates, either gloating, sneering, or remaining silent.

Yates looked at the zombies that surrounded him and did not retreat. He continued to chop and kill with the kitchen knife.

Looking at Yates's decisive and efficient approach, many people were a little bit unbelievable.

Is the kitchen knife so easy to use?

An unknown amount of time passed before Yates was surrounded by zombie corpses again, and he fought his way out of a bloody path.

At this moment, no one dared to shout anything at Yates.

For someone who can remain so calm in a group of zombies, if you piss her off and she comes to you, isn't that courting death?

Watching Ye Ci's figure going away, many people sighed in their hearts. Where did this evil spirit come from?

At this time, in a residential building, a man tore his clothes into strips and tied them to his hands and body layer by layer.

Are you really going out? It's so dangerous outside. The man's wife looked at her husband worriedly.

There is nothing to eat at home. If I don't go out, I will definitely be hungry later and my physical strength will only get weaker and weaker. If I go out again, I will be courting death. Now that I am in good condition, we can live longer by preparing some supplies early. The man said seriously, What's more, the one who just killed so many zombies has greatly reduced the danger in our area. Now is the most suitable time. I can think of this, and others can also think of it. Going out now will be a waste of time. safer."

The wife's lips moved, but in the end she said nothing.

Later, after sending her husband out, she came to the window and stared closely at the scene below.

When I saw my husband's figure, my eyes followed him for a moment, and then I watched more and more people appear nearby, watching them gather into teams and head towards the supermarket.

I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

With more people and greater strength, he will definitely be able to return safely!

The subsequent situation here was also relayed to Yates by the system.

[Host, did you know this a long time ago, so you killed so many zombies along the way? 】

Just by the way. Yates said casually.

The system sees through it but doesn't tell you about it.

[Then what is the host’s next plan? The tsunami is coming in more than twenty days. 】

Yeates is currently resting in a shop. The shop has a glass door, and occasionally one or two zombies pass by the door.

Yates listened and opened the BUG mall to take a look.

The specific conditions of several previous buildings were retrieved.

[Product: Safe House]

[BUG value: 100]

[Description: Primary state, defensive building, belonging to one person's world]

[Product: Hotel]

[BUG value: 100]

[Description: Primary status, commercial building, with 10 guest rooms]

[Product: Fortress]

[BUG value: 100]

[Description: Primary state, defensive building. Due to its extremely strong defense, the fortress can only accommodate 10 people]

When she went out this time, she had no intention of going back.

One is to see the situation outside, and the other is to choose the first building to exchange based on the situation outside.

Along the way, she has gained confidence in her heart.

For these buildings, only children make choices, not adults!

It's a pity that her current BUG value is not enough.

After waiting enough, she redeemed them all!

As for now...

Let’s exchange for a hotel first!

【Exchanging hotel...】

[Host, are you connected to the hotel system? 】

Plug in.

[System accessing...]

After the connection was completed, a small screen appeared in front of Yates.

The screen is a simple control panel.

[Name: Hotel]

[Level: lv.0 (0/100)]

[Attribution: Yates]

[Mall: To be opened]

[Description: Within the scope of the hotel, the owner has absolute control and is immune to damage. 】

[Status: To be opened]

[Energy: 332 (owner 332, hotel 0]

After reading the description of this hotel system, Yates's eyes fell on the last one to be opened. The next moment, he reached out and clicked.

At one o'clock, a notification appeared on the screen.

[Should 100 crystal cores be deducted to open it? 】

yes.

【Opening...】

[Looking for a suitable location. 】

[The search is completed, as shown in the picture, please select. 】

Soon, a surrounding map appeared on the screen, with appropriate red dots marked on it.

Yeates looked around and saw that the red dot was not far from her.

The next moment, I followed the directions on the map and arrived at an unfinished building in a short time.

[We have arrived at the appropriate location. Do you want to place it? 】

yes.

As soon as he finished speaking, the unfinished building in front of Yates changed drastically.

A hotel was born out of nowhere.

[Please name the hotel. 】

Qingyun.

Chapter 3

【003】Hotel opening

The entire Qingyun Hotel has replaced the unfinished building. Although it is only three stories high, the entire area is not small. A large area of open space around it has also been integrated into the hotel, turning it into neat parking spaces. There are also parking spaces on the periphery. Surrounded by iron fences, it became a unique world.

Immediately, Yates entered the hotel along the central avenue.

The first floor is mainly composed of public facilities, which are divided into front desk registration area, passenger rest area, public toilets and merchandise sales counters.

Looking at these supporting facilities, Yates was immediately satisfied. Everything was available for food, drink and entertainment, which was not found in other buildings.

Furthermore, the hotel will be better managed once the money is settled, and she has no intention of showing up. In such a disordered world, it is the last word to make a fortune silently and pretend to be a pig to eat the tiger.

At the same time, the information on the hotel control panel also changed.

[Name: Hotel]

[Level: lv.0 (0/100)] [Upgrade]

[Attribution: Yates]

[Mall: To be opened]

[Description: Within the scope of the hotel, the owner has absolute control and is immune to damage. 】

[Status: Open]

[Energy: 232 (Owner 232, Hotel 0)]

[Facilities: exchange machine, restaurant (loading), merchandise sales counter (loading)]

Yates quickly looked at the hotel's own shopping mall, clicked to open it, and then a new window popped up.

The page is similar to a shopping app and has specific categories.

Vegetables/Fruits/Meat, poultry and eggs/Seafood and aquatic products/Prepared food and buns/Seasoning and oil condiments/Snacks/Drinks/Home furnishings

The price is marked behind each product, and the unit is energy, which is the crystal core.

In addition, there is also the word on shelves in the corner of the product.

Obviously, in addition to the products in the mall itself, products in this world can also be put on the shelves.

Thinking about the contents of his backpack, Yates moved.

[Hey, do you want to put chocolate on the shelves? The system recommends pricing for 5 crystal cores]

no.

Later, Yates purchased basic life support commodities such as cheap water and steamed buns directly from the system and put them into the merchandise sales cabinet.

As for the restaurant, it also has integrated sales. You only need to prepare the raw materials and enter the recipes, and you can produce your own meals.

Everything is automated equipment, and the price she needs to pay is only the operating energy of 5 cores a day.

It's only the first day of the end, and such facilities are enough.

With the place settled, Yates began to walk toward the front desk.

At this time, a notification was displayed on the touch screen at the front desk.

[Currently, there are four room types to choose from: standard single room, standard double room, standard double room, and superior suite. Please confirm the 10 house types. 】

[Room type: Standard single room]

【Unit price: 10】

【Whether to add +】

[Room type: Standard Double Room]

[Unit price: 15]

【Whether to add +】

[Room type: Standard King Room]

[Unit price: 15]

【Whether to add +】

[Room type: Superior Suite]

[Unit price: 25]

【Whether to add +】

After weighing several rooms, Yates directly determined 5 standard single rooms and 5 standard double rooms.

As soon as it was confirmed, information about available rooms appeared on the bulletin board next to it.

[The hotel has been initialized. Do you want to start operating? 】

yes.

[Operators please read the hotel operation matters carefully. 】

【......】

Yates started reading directly, and couldn't help but pause when he saw someone at the front desk.

Doesn't she want to come forward and recruit people?

Hiring someone would make it impossible to hide the secret that she was the one behind the scenes.

999. Without thinking, Yates called out the system.

The system was racking its brains to think of how to increase the BUG value of the host, when it suddenly heard Yates calling it and quickly replied.

【exist.】

Is this hotel business a problem for you? Yates asked.

[Hmm? I run a hotel??? This is not good, right? This is the host's job? ]

Who said you would take me flying? Who said you would help me with all your heart? Yates praised the system.

System: [...Me, me, me! I’ll do it!]

Then is this a bug? Yates hinted again.

【Ding! The host has BUG behavior, and the BUG value is +5. ] The system also added Yates without hesitation.

One person and one person are exceptionally harmonious.

System, please go through the procedures for me now and let me become one of the tenants. Yates demanded.

The system listened to Yates' words and quickly integrated itself into the hotel system, acting as the front desk.

[Dear customer, do you want to register as a guest of our store? 】

yes.

[Please take your passenger identity card and put the crystal core into the redemption machine nearby. After redemption, the balance can be converted into consumption at the hotel. In addition, there are currently 10 vacant rooms. Do you want to book a room? 】

Standard single room.

[ 10 cores will be deducted, please renew the room before 2 pm on the next day, otherwise the system has the right to cancel the reservation and blacklist the passenger. 】

...

After a series of operations, Yates had already obtained the passenger ID card for the reserved room.

The passenger ID card is the core of this hotel. You only need to put the crystal core into the coin machine, and you can use the crystal core to eat, drink, and travel in this hotel.

The next moment, Yeates went directly upstairs to find a room to rest.

The system, which has temporarily focused on the hotel, has made up its mind to manage the hotel well so that the host's mission can be completed as soon as possible.

After looking at the empty space outside, with only zombies passing by from time to time, the system took action.

The hotel is open and looking for guests!

Also, the procedures of the original hotel system were too cumbersome and he also needed to change them.

At the same time, more and more residents began to walk out of their homes due to lack of daily necessities. Some people died unfortunately, while others found a way to survive.

Many people are beginning to understand a truth.

The end of the world has really come. If you want to survive in such a world, the only way is to go out and fight against zombies.

However, in an era without order, human malice and evil thoughts will only be infinitely amplified. Many people not only have to face the difficult reality, but also face the malice from the same kind.

Of course, there are also people who unite to deal with zombies.

For example, Zhou Shan and his party.

When night fell, they had determined one thing, that is, the girl with great skills during the day really did not come back.

Is she not coming back on her own, or... is something wrong? someone couldn't help but ask.

There are so many zombies outside, it's hard to beat four with one punch, right? Some psychics just overestimate themselves. The person who spoke was also a psychic, but the water-based psychic ability he activated could only make a small basin of water, which was not of much help to his combat power. He still envied those powerful psychics.

Our community just rescued a resident who came from another place. He mentioned that the reason they came out was because they saw a woman walking along the way and killing a lot of zombies with a kitchen knife, which reduced the number of zombies in their area. If there were no large supermarkets in their area and the competition was too fierce, he would not have come here. So is the person he mentioned the one we know?

It must be her. Who can wield a kitchen knife so powerfully?

Where did she go?

Wouldn't it be better to stay where there are more people? Why would she go out alone?

...

Several people were talking about it, full of curiosity about Yates.

It was also at this time that, suddenly, they saw the display screen in their community suddenly light up, instantly illuminating the surroundings.

Everyone's attention couldn't help but be drawn over.

Look, there are words on it.

Isn't there a power outage?

Then, Zhou Shan walked over first and saw the contents clearly.

【Qingyun Hotel is now open】

[Dear travelers, Qingyun Hotel is officially opened. There are 10 rooms in total, first come, first served. It provides hot water, food and other daily necessities, and promises the safety of customers within the hotel and the end of the world luxury enjoyment. 】

【Location: xxxx】

[Note: In the hotel, the consumption currency is crystal core]

More and more people gathered under the bulletin board. Seeing this sudden advertisement, everyone was a little shocked.

Some people couldn't help but rub their eyes.

The main reason is that the content above is a bit shocking to them now.

Could it be true? Someone couldn't help but murmured.

This sound seemed to break the silence around them, and more people suddenly spoke out.

It's true. It must be true. Those who can do this are definitely not ordinary beings. You know, we don't have any electricity here.

But this is too fantasy!

The apocalypse is coming and zombies have appeared. Isn't it normal for more fantasy things to happen? Moreover, what this hotel wants is the crystal core from the zombie's head. We just don't know the use of the crystal core. Maybe, the use is here!

Yes! And this leaflet says it! Absolute safety can be guaranteed in the hotel! Don't you feel that the zombies are becoming more and more powerful these days, and our actions are becoming less and less safe? Now there is a safe place, we Then you can have no worries!

I know this place. Although it's not very far from us, it's still quite a distance away. With so many people here, it's probably quite dangerous. I'm afraid many people won't be willing to go.

The principle of voluntariness. I must leave anyway. Zhou Shan said firmly. The longer he has been leading this part of the community to fight these days, the more difficult it feels, especially the team of superpowers in the community. They already have objections to their small team of ordinary people. If time goes on, they are afraid that they will deal with them.

Now there is a new escape route.

You must go. You must go.

I'll follow you, Brother Zhou!

Me too.

...

Many people on the side echoed one by one.

Then let's get ready quickly. There are limited places in the hotel there, and we don't know how many we will see.

Uh-huh.

And such things not only happen here, but also in many nearby areas.

Everyone who saw it had a bright light in their eyes.

This brilliance is called hope.

Chapter 4

【004】Zombies are treasures

Early the next morning, Zhou Shan and his party, who were well prepared, went to the underground garage together, drove the car out of the basement, and rushed out of the community with the convoy.

After watching them leave, someone reported their affairs to the remaining psychics in the community.

Zhou Shan and the others have definitely left in the direction of the so-called Qingyun Hotel.

It's good to go. It's a good opportunity to investigate the situation. Ji Wenshu, a psychic who was listening to the report, said lazily.

The origin of the Qingyun Hotel is really magical. Should we go and take a look? Maybe Zhou Shan won't be so kind as to tell us the truth? A psychic at the side couldn't help but say. Being able to get electricity on the doomsday of power outage and secretly control it remotely is definitely an amazing existence.

He doesn't dare. Ji Wenshu said without thinking, Besides, that place may not be better than our place.

He had some ill will towards the Qingyun Hotel that suddenly appeared. If it was really that safe, it would definitely affect his rule here. Which one is more comfortable, managing others yourself or having others manage you?

The other people with special abilities listened and stopped worrying. After all, they had special abilities and were safe here.

Little do we know, there is a saying that goes, nothing is constant in this world.

Qingyun Hotel.

After a night's rest, Yates has recovered to full health.

After having a hot breakfast in the restaurant, Yates was already ready to go out to fight zombies.

Crystal cores are the main source of energy, so she should reserve some in case of emergency. After all, she also wants to complete her mission and leave this world.

But before leaving the house, Yeates took a look at the number of crystal cores in his account and felt something was wrong.

999, where is the crystal core?

[I was advertising for the host last night! Someone is already coming to our hotel now! You'll make your money back soon! Expanding revenue is not better than reducing expenditure! 】

He has figured out how to upgrade the hotel in the system. What he wants is tourists. Whether they come to dine or stay, as long as they come, the experience value will increase a little. When it reaches 100, the hotel can be promoted.

Therefore, early in the morning the system began to invade the surveillance cameras along the road to check the surrounding situation. The result made the system very happy, as many people were heading towards Qingyun Hotel.

The system can now be said to be taking credit from Yates!

So as long as you have the crystal core, you can make use of many things in this world. Yeats did not blame the system for acting on its own, but grasped the key point at once.

[Yes, crystal cores are the main energy source in the world today.]

The current world? So different worlds have different energy media?

This made Yates a little curious about what other advanced mission worlds with bonuses under the BUG system would look like.

But for now, let’s complete the tasks in this world first.

Are there many people coming? Yates continued to ask.

[There are quite a lot of them, including the team you met yesterday.]

Aren't they doing pretty well in the community? The teamwork is good. Yeats said with some surprise. After saying that, he thought of another team, Have the team of superpowers from the same community as me arrived?

[No, most of the visitors are ordinary people, and many people with special abilities are watching. In their opinion, it is better to act arrogantly in their own territory.]

They think a lot. Yates said lightly.

According to the system, with all the natural disasters that will occur one after another in the future, the only way for humans to survive is to unite.

But from the very beginning, the difference between people with special abilities and ordinary people doomed the conflict between the two sides.

Under all these conditions, Yates was able to understand the system's judgment of this world.

[At least so far, they have the upper hand.] The system objectively evaluated.

Anyway, within the hotel and within the area we will manage in the future, people with special abilities will not have any special privileges, Yates said directly.

[The host can formulate the hotel's management regulations. After submitting them, the hotel system will automatically run. ]

I only have one rule. Fighting and hurting each other is prohibited in the hotel. Otherwise, you will be blacklisted. Yates said, As for the specific details, please help me refine them and make them into the hotel rules for guests.

【good.】

I'll leave it to you then. I'm going out to kill the zombies.

【Um.】

The system responded crisply, as if it had a second spring.

Not long after Ye Ci left, Zhou Shan and his group, who were closer, had already arrived not far from the hotel.

There were many zombies chasing behind them, and they were so panicked that they continued to drive on the rampage without even having time to think.

At the same time, there were several people observing the area that might be the Qingyun Hotel.

There! One of the people who was familiar with the nearby environment said in surprise, There used to be an unfinished building with dozens of floors, just like the buildings next to it, but now it has changed drastically! The sign written on it It’s Qingyun Hotel!

Go that way. Zhou Shan gave the order directly without even having time to think about the meaning of this man's words.

Under his order, all the vehicles headed towards the Qingyun Hotel without hesitation, with his vehicle taking precedence.

Just like that, a convoy of vehicles rushed directly into the hotel door very quickly.

After rushing in, they looked back and saw that the zombies that were originally around their car or chasing behind were stopped outside the hotel one by one, as if there was a barrier there.

Many people stared at this scene in a daze.

Although they knew the existence of the hotel was awesome before coming, they really didn’t expect it to be so awesome!!!

The next moment, everyone became excited.

With such a safe place, do they still need to worry?

Brother Zhou, I wonder how this hotel came into being? It's amazing! It can actually keep the zombies out.

Yes! It just popped up out of nowhere. I also know that this was originally an unfinished building and there was no such hotel at all.

Is it alien technology?

It's very possible. Apart from alien technology, I can't think of anyone who has such an ability.

Is this an alien conspiracy? Isn't the zombie virus a meteorite from aliens?

I don't think so.

If you really have such technology, why do you have to go through such twists and turns if you want to deal with us?

Yes, it should be specially used to deal with zombies. Yesterday's advertisement mentioned that the hotel charges crystal cores.

...

The group of people talked a lot, denying some people's speculations. The main reason was that they were unwilling to face a more difficult environment in such a difficult situation.

It was also at this time that a mechanical sound came into everyone's mind.

[Welcome to Qingyun Hotel. You have entered the hotel. If you need to check in, please go to the lobby to go through the formalities. 】

【Note: Non-hotel guests are required to pay late payment fees in the hotel. 】

Did you hear it? When the system finished speaking, someone couldn't help but ask. He didn't know whether everyone heard it or just him.

I heard it. The others responded in unison, with a strange look on their faces.

This place is even more magical than they imagined.

How does this mechanical voice transmit the sound to their minds?

Also, what is the late payment fee? Is it a crystal core? How do I pay it?

Everyone's eyes suddenly fell on Zhou Shan, after all, he was their leader.

Zhou Shan came back to his senses, calmed his thoughts, and said directly: Let's park the car and take a look inside. As for paying the late payment fee, there should be instructions inside.

The others felt a lot more at ease after listening to Zhou Shan's words.

After the group of people parked their cars in a neat parking space, they walked into the hall anxiously.

As soon as they entered the door, they realized that the hotel in front of them was even neater than what they had seen before the apocalypse. It seemed very incompatible with the apocalypse outside, as if it were another world.

Many people dare not take a breath.

Is there anyone there? Someone asked subconsciously. After all, it is recognized that the hotel has a front desk.

【have. 】

The mechanical sound rang in the hall, and everyone's attention was instantly attracted.

They recognized it as the voice they had just heard in their heads.

This hotel does indeed have an owner!

[Dear travelers, I am 999, the person in charge of Qingyun Hotel. Please consciously abide by the hotel rules while staying in the hotel. Violators will be added to the hotel's blacklist and will not be allowed to enter. 】

[Rule 1: All behaviors that harm the personal safety of others and harm the interests of others are prohibited, including nuisance, intimidation, extortion, violence, robbery, etc. 】

[For more information about the hotel, please explore by yourself. The hotel is intelligently managed. 】

It was as if it was just an announcement, and after the announcement, the voice disappeared.

Everyone at the scene looked at each other, but their hearts felt more at ease.

At least the rules currently disclosed by the hotel can be said to exclude crime. Most of them are ordinary people and need exactly such an environment.

Zhou Shan was also very satisfied with this rule. He finally relaxed his worries and said to his companions: Let's explore the hotel on our own! But remember, don't act rashly. I don't know if there are any other hidden things. The rules will put people on the blacklist, and everyone should be able to see that this hotel can guarantee our safety."

Zhou Shan's words were also the last subtle reminder.

Everyone looked serious, and then began to explore the so-called Qingyun Hotel.

There is a restaurant here that actually provides rice porridge. It only requires 1 crystal core.

Oh my god! I haven't had hot food in days.

There is a vending machine here. You can buy water, steamed buns, and some bread. It seems that you don't have to worry about food. You also need crystal cores.

There is a coin machine here. For the first time, you need to spend 1 crystal core to make a passenger ID card. After real-name authentication, you can top up your crystal core into the hotel ID card and make purchases in the hotel, including booking rooms, eating, shopping...

Book a room, yes, this is a hotel, and the rooms are limited.

...

As soon as this sentence came out, many people immediately turned to the front desk.

At this time, the panel shows that there are nine rooms left.

There are nine rooms left? Someone arrived before us? Who? Everyone looked around curiously.

At this time, Zhou Shan had also arrived at the front desk, looked at the remaining nine rooms and said: Who is it? The most important thing now is whether we choose to stay here? Anyway, I will stay. After booking the room, I will Bring my wife and children here.

Stay, of course.

This room requires so many crystal cores. It's okay for a day or two, but I'm afraid it won't be able to support it for a long time.

As long as we have hands and feet, we can kill zombies and earn crystal cores. Zhou Shan responded, looked around, and took a long breath, Compared to the previous worries, it's good that this hotel allows us to rest peacefully.

The others were silent. If possible, who would be willing to go out and fight to the death?

But Zhou Shan's words also reached their hearts.

Having a safe place is more important than anything else.

Isn't it just the crystal nucleus? Just kill zombies!

But there are only nine rooms now, are they enough? There are also single and double rooms mentioned above. Is there a requirement for the number of people? If you haven't booked a room, can you stay here? Someone suddenly said.

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet. They were still partners who worked well together before, but now they looked at each other with more thoughts.

If the number of places to live there is fixed, who would want to leave here!

Zhou Shan also clearly felt the change in the atmosphere, and said as if unintentionally, The hotel previously proposed that non-our guests need to pay a late fee to stay in the hotel. Does this mean that as long as you pay the late fee, you can stay in the hotel, right?

These words brought back the memories of many people, and immediately the people headed by Zhou Shan began to experiment.

After some experiments, I have a general understanding of the hotel's current reservation rules.

The upper limit for a single room is 4 people, and the upper limit for a double room is 8 people. In addition to the room rate, you need to pay crystal cores for turning on the lights or using hot water. If you don't check in but just consume in the hotel, you can be considered a hotel guest. If you don't book a room, you need to pay a stay fee of 1 crystal core. Zhou Shan said.

Then I won't book a room. After I get my ID card, I'll just live in the car outside! Zombies can't get into the hotel anyway.

I won't order it either. I don't have many crystal cores, and renting a room is a waste.

I have family and children, so I'll book a single room!

...

Everyone said one after another that as long as there was no danger, they didn't really need a room and it would be safe to just find a place to spend the night!

Looking at the people in front of him, Zhou Shan thought for a moment and then spoke.

In this way, let's fight zombies separately in the future! Everyone's extra crystal cores belong to themselves. If anyone wants to go out as a team, we can discuss the allocation. Zhou Shan said directly.

Brother Zhou, you...

It was just safer to move together before, but now there is no need here. Zhou Shan said firmly.

He took the lead before just because he didn't want ordinary people like him to be bullied too much. Now that he has such a stable place, he just wants to lead a stable life with his family.

In the last days, the word stable was so difficult, Qingyun Hotel gave him a glimmer of hope, and all he had to do was hold on to it.

Before we officially disband, I want to take the team back to pick up my family.

I'm also going to go back to pick up people.

I'm alone, I have no family, and I'm not going to go back.

I'm not going back either.

Brother Zhou, can you pick up my family? I'm scared.

...

Zhou Shan listened, pursed his lips slightly, and said lightly: I am only responsible for my own family.

The others remained silent.

Afterwards, the team returning to the community was formed and headed towards their community.

This time, they were noticeably more passionate about hacking and killing the zombies chasing them.

They all understand that these zombies are the basis for their future survival.

In the past, zombies were nightmares to them, but now they are...babies!

While they were killing the zombies, Yates on the other side suddenly received a notification from the system.

[Ding! Ye Ci, the owner of Qingyun Hotel, the guests in the hotel killed the zombies, and you got 0.1 crystal core. ]

Chapter 5

【005】Hotel Upgrade

When Ye Ci saw the system notification, she was a little surprised. It turned out that in addition to the crystal cores obtained from running the hotel, she could also obtain crystal cores when tourists killed zombies.

From another perspective, the hotel system serves the apocalypse, and its purpose is to kill more zombies and obtain more energy.

Thinking of this, Yates felt relieved.

She did not intend to unconditionally shelter survivors when running the hotel.

What she always wanted was for the survivors to strive for survival on their own.

The existence of the hotel is to serve as a haven for shelter from wind and rain, and as a rear base where others can fight with peace of mind.

Outside Jinxiu Community.

Zhou Shan’s group has returned to the community safely.

After the members of the superpower team saw it, they quickly reported it.

Ji Wenshu approached Zhou Shan immediately.

At this time, Zhou Shan was asking his wife and daughter to pack their luggage and prepare to leave later.

Honey, is that place as safe as you said? Zhou Shan's wife Mao Xiyue asked hesitantly.

For so many days in the last days, relying on her husband, she had a pretty good life. Plus, living in her own home, she always felt a little bit reluctant to let go of her home.

Yes, it's very safe there. Zombies can't enter the hotel at all. After you entered there, I felt at ease when I went out. Zhou Shan responded.

Didn't you say it was safe? You still want to go out? Mao Xiyue grabbed Zhou Shan's arm and said. Every time Zhou Shan went out, she felt under a lot of pressure. She knew that Zhou Shan was the pillar of the family. If anything unexpected happened, neither she nor her daughter would have a good ending.

Eating, drinking, living and traveling in the hotel all require zombie crystal cores. If I don't go out to kill zombies, I will only be kicked out. Zhou Shan said helplessly.

The hotel is very safe and nice, but this safety is conditional.

This condition is generous enough for the survivors in the doomsday situation.

Now it is possible that too few people know about the hotel. When more and more people know about it, they will surely flock to the hotel .

Then... Mao Xiyue didn't know what to say for a moment.

Zhou Shan didn't let Mao Xiyue ask any more questions and said directly: Go ahead and pack up! We'll leave right away!

Um.

It was at this time that there was a knock on the door.

Zhou Shan suddenly became alert. He came to the door, looked out through the peephole, and saw Ji Wenshu's figure.

After pursing his lips, Zhou Shan opened the door and welcomed the person in.

Zhou Shan, I came to see you since I knew you were back. Ji Wenshu said to Zhou Shan with a smile.

Is there anything wrong? Zhou Shan asked directly.

I heard from the people who came back that you are going to take people back to that hotel this time. Is that hotel really good? Ji Wenshu's tone was filled with a hint of scrutiny.

He had heard that those who had been there were determined to take their families with them when they came back, and some even didn't come back at all. This made him even more curious about what the hotel was like.

The hotel is very good, it's very mysterious there... Zhou Shan said simply, with a calm tone, but what he revealed made Ji Wenshu think deeply.

Is there really such a hotel? Can you defend against zombies? Is it really exciting?

At this time, Mao Xiyue packed her things and came out of the house with her daughter Zhou Yao.

Seeing this, Zhou Shan quickly said: Mr. Ji, we are ready to leave, so we won't talk to you any more.

Afterwards, Zhou Shan left with his wife and daughter in front of Ji Wenshu, without showing any nostalgia.

A moment later, Ji Wenshu also got the same answer about the hotel from other subordinates.

Ji Wenshu himself didn't say anything, but many of his subordinates were already thinking, especially after hearing that it was absolutely safe there.

Although their current community is relatively safe, how can it compare to a hotel that is not afraid of zombies entering?

Ji Wenshu noticed it immediately, but comforted him without leaving a trace: Although it is safe there, living there requires a lot of zombie crystal cores every day. If the zombie crystal cores are harmful to us superpowers, Where’s Da Yong?

Ji Wenshu's words successfully appeased the group of supernatural beings, and the group no longer said anything about going to the hotel, but they still had this place deeply engraved in their hearts.

On the other side, Zhou Shan and his party have once again set foot on the road to Qingyun Hotel. Compared with the hard fight before, it is obviously much easier.

After all, this road had been cleared back and forth several times by them.

But when they passed an intersection, they clearly felt the roars of zombies one after another.

Following the sound, I saw a group of people being chased by a group of zombies. Those who ran slowly had already become one of the zombies.

After seeing their convoy, the team being chased seemed to have seen their savior and ran towards them.

Save us! Save us!

Please!

Brother Zhou? someone asked hurriedly.

We have a lot of people, so we should be able to kill all the zombies. Divide into two teams and take turns guarding the convoy. If we defeat these zombies, we will have more crystal cores. If Zhou Shan had been asked this question a day ago, he would have had only one answer, which was to run.

But now, Zhou Shan is still willing to earn more crystal nuclei. After all, crystal nuclei are the foundation of their existence.

Yes. Others had no objection.

Soon, Zhou Shan and his party had already extended a helping hand and headed towards the direction of this group
