Chapter 19 Survivor Influx



"This is bad!" Xiang Lei's expression turned grave.

He then walked over to Feng Mingyang and said, "Quick, Feng, grab some food we can take back to our room."

After saying that, Xiang Lei looked at Xiao Jin again: "Together?" Xiao Jin only thought for a moment before agreeing. With so many survivors suddenly arriving at the foot of the mountain, the safe zone would soon be in chaos. She was alone and weak, so following Xiang Lei and the others was a good choice.

Xiang Lei thought so too.

The hotel only has these supplies. If things get chaotic, Feng Mingyang is young and his abilities are limited. He has a lot of strength but little ability. Cooperating with Xiao Jin is the best option. Xiang Lei hurriedly urged Feng Mingyang to get moving.

The three made quite a move, and the other players were stunned and looked at each other blankly. Weren't these three the most composed ones before?

Someone noticed that Xiao Jin and the others had looked down the mountain earlier, and after squinting for a while, they immediately cried out in panic, "Oh no! A lot of people are coming down the mountain!"

"What?"

The other players craned their necks to look down the mountain, and once they saw it clearly, they immediately followed Xiao Jin and the other two and started taking supplies. A group of people crowded around the food table in a chaotic manner.

"I saw it first."

"Stop grabbing! You've already taken so much!"

"Give me……"

Many people were so crowded that their slippers flew off, and some were even stuffing food and alcohol into their pockets at the same time.

Finally, a few even rushed into the kitchen warehouse. Even though everyone is at the foot of the mountain now, it will still take several hours to get back up. They might as well take this time to hide all the food.

If Xiang Lei knew, he would definitely curse those idiots to death.

The game is only two days away from ending, what's the point of hiding so much food? If the survivors come in and can't find any food, they'll just turn the hotel upside down.

However, Xiao Jin and his two companions had already left by then, so they were completely unaware of the other players' antics.

After discussing it, the group chose Xiao Jin's room, which was on the third floor. Xiang Lei and the other person carried their belongings down from the top floor.

The three of them unanimously avoided the other players on the top floor.

The room was small, with only a bed, but there was a small sofa near the window.

Xiang Lei and Feng Mingyang naturally wouldn't try to take the bed from Xiao Jin. The two found two quilts nearby and laid them on the floor. With a blanket on the floor and air conditioning in the room, it wasn't cold.

Xiao Jin also took a lot of food back to her room. She needed to spend the next few days with Xiang Lei, and the secret of the space couldn't be revealed.

After that, Xiao Jin stood by the window and looked down the mountain.

The foot of the mountain is now deserted. Apart from the boats left on the water, the remaining survivors have all gone up the mountain. A rough look suggests there are tens of thousands of them.

The line stretched out, and although there were a lot of people, compared to the 30 million permanent residents of D City, these 10,000 people wouldn't even make a splash.

Two hours later, everyone in the hotel was as quiet as a chicken, clutching their supplies and hiding fearfully in their rooms.

Meanwhile, those below the mountain could already see the brightly lit hotel on the summit. In the dark rain, the hotel stood like a lighthouse, dispelling the gloom in their hearts.

Immediately, someone pointed upwards and shouted, "Electricity! Look, there's still electricity up there!"

"Really?" The person on one side pushed aside the people in front of them, and when they saw the hotel clearly, they burst into tears, repeatedly saying, "There's hope! There's hope!"

The rainstorm came suddenly, and everyone was supposed to stay home as instructed. But then communications suddenly went down, followed by power outages, contaminated tap water, strong winds, low temperatures, and floods. The world was thrown into complete chaos.

They had no way to call for help and no one came to rescue them. They had run out of food at home, and without water and electricity, they couldn't cook. In the middle of the journey, a strong wind suddenly blew up, and the wind whipped up waves of water several meters high, which almost submerged the entire city.

To put it bluntly, those who are still alive are lucky. With D City gone, the cold and hungry crowd thought of Xitai Mountain. Those who can get here now are people with some wealth.

He didn't die at the start of the downpour, and he still had a boat.

Upon arriving at Xitai Mountain, the group was overjoyed. The water had not yet submerged the area, and there was electricity on the mountain. It would be even better if there were some food inside.

With this thought in mind, the group climbed desperately upwards, and finally someone rushed into the hotel.

"It's so warm!"

Even if you wear more clothes after being soaked in rainwater for a long time, the wet clothes still feel chilly when the wind blows.

The person who came in next smelled the aroma of food. His eyes lit up and he rushed into the restaurant. Ignoring the food that had been scrambled up by the players, he grabbed it with his dirty hands and stuffed it into his mouth.

On the table, even on the floor.

People who arrived later also saw it and immediately joined the frenzy of buying.

However, there were too many monks and not enough porridge, and the food on the table was quickly snatched up.

At this moment, a person secretly tried to leave with a plate containing small cakes and many other dishes. His actions were discovered, and seeing that he had snatched so much food, the person became so jealous that their eyes turned red, and they immediately attacked him.

"Give me!"

The person holding the food naturally refused to give way, and after a while, anger flared up, and the struggle turned into a fight.

The next second, the fight between the two turned into a large-scale brawl, with the surrounding tables and chairs becoming weapons. In an instant, the restaurant was filled with screams and blood.

A large number of survivors poured into the hotel, and such a commotion could not possibly be kept secret from the players inside.

They listened to the noise and screams coming from below, remaining silent and not daring to make a sound. Instead, they quietly blocked the door with the sofa and hid in a corner with the supplies they had previously concealed.

Xiao Jin and the others also hid in the room. They had already foreseen this scene when they saw the people down the mountain.

Feng Mingyang said with concern, "I hope we won't be affected."

Xiang Lei's eyebrows were furrowed together.

Xiao Jin also leaned against the window with his arms crossed, watching the large numbers of people pouring into the hotel with an unreadable expression.

Little did they know, the food in the restaurant's kitchen had been hidden by the players upstairs. Seeing that there was no food left in the restaurant, these people rushed into the hotel rooms and began to loot.

The hotel room doors were all open, and the survivors occupied these rooms. Some families, consisting of seven or eight generations, were crammed together. Towels, blankets, and even the carpets on the floor were looted by the survivors.

They would hide any food or drink they saw into their clothes. The bottled water in the room, the fruit platters in the entertainment area, the pastries and candies—the survivors were so greedy that they didn't leave a single thing behind.

On their scavenging journey, the survivors naturally came across rooms with tightly closed doors. This unusual situation immediately made them realize that someone was inside, which led to a frenzied banging and kicking.

Some people said there must be food inside!
