【No CP + Business Management + Apocalypse】
Task issued - New World Task: Open a hotel in the apocalypse.
Xia Yan: You said it was a vacation? Where's the scenery? Is it zombies?...
Chapter 258 There is a long way to go
Xia Yan just let them do as they please and just make the most of the time.
Of course, some people think the safe zone is too crowded, and no one wants to sleep next to each other. It would be bad if they fall asleep in the middle of the night and run out, and get picked up by zombies.
In this case, it is better to spend a little money and leave the island, which is so big. You can just leave as you like. There are soldiers there, so you don't have to worry.
Xia Yan looked at the time. It was almost half past twelve, so he urged them to make a decision quickly.
Five minutes later, she took the rest of the group away and activated the charging system for the resort gate in front of everyone, completely putting an end to the idea of some people wanting to sneak in while she was sleeping.
Let Xiongxiong and Zhikang handle the rest, she is too sleepy.
Hurry up and go to bed.
...
Sang Zhengyi and his team quickened their pace and spent most of the day doing the final finishing work. They then numbered the newly dug potatoes and put them back in the villa.
He found the Propaganda Department and signed up his team. One of the rules was that people with spatial abilities were prohibited from participating, so his wife had to stay in the villa to wash potatoes.
Perhaps the staff saw that they were a vulnerable group and wanted to take better care of them, so they arranged them to work at the farm closest to the hotel, where they were responsible for picking zucchini.
On the one hand, there is no need to dig the soil with great effort, and on the other hand, it is relatively close to the safe zone, so if any accident happens, you can run back no matter how slow you are.
Sang Zhengyi naturally knew the other party's good intentions. He went back to the villa, took out half a bag of potatoes, and stuffed it into the hands of the staff in the name of the team.
"It's not something expensive. It's been detoxified, so don't worry about eating it. Boss Xia is a kind man. He gave us all the potatoes he dug. There wasn't a long line these days, so he purified this little bit and gave you some to try."
The staff member smiled, looked around, and seeing that no one was paying attention, he put it away and put it in the cabinet. "Go to work, I'll give you half a day's work."
Sang Zhengyi also smiled, put his hands together, closed the door gently and left.
...
For seven consecutive days, they were harvested, cleaned, and sent to official detoxification shops to purify toxins.
Everyone was busy, leaving at dawn and returning after sunset.
With all their might, they dug up the three nearby farms, collected everything edible, and filled all the spaces with fruits and vegetables.
Early in the morning of the eighth day, Chu Wanfu came to Xia Yan to discuss the termination of the contract.
Xia Yan looked up at the gray sky, unable to hide the regret in his heart. After so many days and so many people, no one hid.
The main reason was that he was too cunning. Except for his subordinates, no one else with spatial abilities was allowed to participate in the picking mission. Under such strict precautions, no one dared to do anything tricky.
Chu Wanfu ordered a hamburger set meal. When it was delivered, he picked it up and took a bite, frowning slightly.
"I really can't get used to this sauce, it's so greasy. The meat patty is also too soft."
After saying that, he looked up at her and said, "Boss Xia, there's no need to be sad. There's a long way to go, and there will be many opportunities for cooperation. Maybe it will come true."
Don’t believe him, Xia Yan said nothing and canceled the contract in the backstage.
Chu Wanfu received the message quickly, and in a good mood, he raised his happy water to gesture to her, and ate a hamburger in two or three bites politely.
“It’s a pleasure to work with you.”
Well, "pleasant."
Around eleven o'clock, Xia Yan, who was sitting idly in the hall, suddenly heard a strange noise outside, like an earthquake, or like something rising from the ground.
Could it be that group of people are coming again?
It's really a dog-skin plaster, it never ends.
She stood up and walked into the safe zone, looking up, and saw a group of soldiers gathered at the outermost edge of the next door. In the middle of them, a circular sentry post rose from the ground, and the final height was about ten meters.
The rumbling sound came from there.
Behind them, scattered fire-type mutants spewed flames from their palms, completely burning and clearing the weeds, dispersing the poison hidden within, until the dark brown soil underneath was exposed.
The water-based mutant followed behind and, seeing the fire showing signs of getting out of control, poured a stream of cold water on it.
In the huge farm, a group of soldiers were busy and quickly cleared out an area that was similar to the open space outside Xia Yan's door.
In the places that had not been cleared yet, the survivors searched again with shovels. This time it was different, because what they dug out were theirs.
“Ding! Ding! Ding!!”
“Ding ding!!”
The shrill sound of a car horn sounded from a distance.
An armored vehicle was approaching quickly. As if there was some emergency, a man leaned out of the passenger seat and waved his arms frantically.
The distance was too far and I couldn't hear what was being shouted.
Two men built a bridge with their hands and let the soldier with excellent eyesight stand on it to look into the distance. Unexpectedly, he jumped down as soon as he got on and shouted to the survivors behind him.
"Zombies are coming, retreat!"
The survivors' faces changed drastically. They grabbed the corners of their short-sleeved shirts, picked up the small potatoes they dug out from the ground, picked up their shovels, and ran away without looking back.
The armored vehicle was moving at an extremely fast speed, followed by a group of ragged, bloody zombies, their purple fingers constantly scratching forward.
"Boss Xia! Help!" The survivors ran and shouted, using all their strength to rush towards the safe zone not far away.
Manager Xiongxiong stood beside Xia Yan and urged everyone to run quickly because there was still time.
On the right side of the safe zone, Sang Zhengyi and his group panicked, limping over the fence and moving back in two steps while holding unknown wild fruits.
The armored vehicle did not lead the zombies to the hotel, but turned around and drove into the base that was about to be built.
The car braked with a long "zi" sound. The four people inside climbed onto the roof, climbed up nimbly, and raised their special-energy guns.
The rotten wooden fence at the entrance could not withstand the pressure and broke into pieces with a dull snap. Zombies poured in like a tide, and the soldiers in the front row fired powerful gunshots. In an instant, the farm turned into a Shura field with blood and flesh flying everywhere!
Under the violent attack of supernatural bullets, rows of zombies fell down one after another, broken arms and legs flew everywhere, dirty and sticky blood flowed all over the ground, and more than a dozen zombies that were cut into two sections grimly bared their teeth and crawled numbly towards the fresh flesh and blood in the distance.
With a soft "puff" sound, the huge impact force caused half of the zombie to fly backwards, and its head exploded in the air, scattering debris like smelly fermented bean curd.
Chu Wanfu quickly loaded his gun and fired again at the zombies attracted by the survivors.
A shot to the head.
The man who was rescued had a face as pale as a wall, his legs were as soft as noodles and kept shaking, he kept falling to the ground, his mouth seemed to be sewn shut, he looked ahead without being able to utter a word, his eyes rolled upwards, and he was about to faint.
No matter how many times I see zombies, I can never overcome the fear of being chased.
The survivors who ran into the safe zone could no longer support their bodies. The fruits in their pockets rolled all over the floor. They didn't even bother to pick them up. They slid down to the ground, their faces pale, their bodies trembling, and their minds blank.
