Chapter 20: The End of the World* Playing the role of a vicious school girl (VI)



Shu Mei's team and another team were sent out to look for supplies for the first time, while the people from the other two teams stayed behind and stayed in the room.

After Shu Lu left the room, she was surrounded by everyone in the center, which was the safest place. After all, they all had to rely on Shu Lu's father, General Li, to send people to rescue them for their hope of survival. Naturally, they would take the initiative to protect Shu Lu and prevent her from getting into trouble. Since Li Shu Lu came to school, she had not shown any violence. Therefore, when everyone saw that she was soft and small, and looked very fragile, like an ordinary person, they naturally put her in the middle to protect her.

Shu Mei knew what everyone was thinking, so he followed the crowd obediently. He watched a boy with strength abilities in front of him. He raised his hand and hit a zombie with a stick, breaking its waist. He hit it with another stick, and the zombie's entire head sank.

To be honest, the opponent performed very well, but after defeating the zombies, he squatted in the corner and vomited violently, and the same happened to everyone else in the team.

Shu Mei looked at the zombies helplessly, thinking to himself: I don't know if there are crystal cores in the heads of the zombies now. The zombie crystal cores are good things for psychics that can improve their levels. A few months after the end of the world, when the survivors have basically stabilized, the crystal cores have become a substitute for currency and are the main currency in circulation on the market.

The plot of the novel is told from the heroine's perspective. She did not discover the zombie crystal core until she was framed by Li Shumei, so there is no detailed explanation of the time when the crystal core appeared.

Shu Mei looked at the beaten zombie with some regret. Seeing that the others were slowly recovering, but their faces were still very pale, he smiled and said, "Zombies and humans are no longer the same creatures after the end of the world, just like animals and humans. They will eat us anyway. Instead of having a psychological burden, it is better to imagine them as tigers and lions. It's either you or me."

As she spoke, she walked out of the crowd and came to the front of the team. The president of the student union immediately ran over and said, "Li Shumei, you are an ordinary person without any special abilities. You should just stay with the team. We can just do the killing of the zombies."

Hearing this, Shu Lu glanced at him with a half-smile, intending to show him his skills. It happened that they were on the first floor at this time, and there were many zombies gathered in the hall, so Shu Lu immediately rushed up.

She only had a sword at the moment, but that was enough.

She walked into the zombie group alone, and everyone screamed like they were suffocating. Some girls even turned their heads away, unable to bear to watch any longer.

However, Shu Mei had no scruples at all and moved flexibly among the zombies. With one strike of the sword, she could chop off a zombie's head. Her technique was neat and tidy, and her movements were not fast. At least in the eyes of everyone, she just raised the sword and stabbed it lightly, but she had already harvested a lot of zombies on the ground with the sword.

After she killed all thirty or so zombies by herself, she raised her wrist and shook the sword, and all the blood on the sword fell to the ground, but there was not much blood on her body.

This scene looked quite pleasing to the eye, but against the backdrop of the zombies on the ground, everyone took a step back when Shu Mei looked over, with expressions of horror on their faces.

Shu Mei didn't say anything, and the atmosphere on both sides became awkward. Finally, the student union president asked timidly, "Li Shu Mei, you've learned kung fu well."

Shu Mei pursed his lips and said, "I grew up in the army and trained with my father and his soldiers for many years, so I naturally have some martial arts skills. Besides, these zombies are extremely slow and their bodies are very stiff. Killing them is as easy as chopping cabbages. As long as you are brave, killing ten or eight of them is not a problem at all."

After Shu Mei finished speaking, everyone relaxed and soon came forward to praise Shu Mei.

However, the lobby is not a good place to chat, and they came out to collect supplies, so they did not stay here for long and soon headed towards the hotel kitchen.

However, Yun Ancang fell behind, looking at the zombie heads on the ground with cold eyes. She pulled a smile on her lips, and without doing anything, she followed the crowd and left.

However, after she left, the zombies' heads still looked intact and bloody from the outside, but the inside seemed to be hollowed out, with everything disappearing completely.

This situation looks weird, but if Shu Mei saw it, he would definitely know that this is actually the unique devouring ability of the heroine Yun Ancang. It’s just that he doesn’t know why the heroine awakened the ability in advance, and the level of this ability is not low.

The first destination of the school group was the hotel's kitchen, where enough food was stored. There were only twenty-four people in their group who survived, and the food in the hotel was enough for them to survive for half a month. After half a month, the rescue team should have arrived.

Everyone had some thoughts in their minds, and when they thought that the future was still bright, they all smiled with relief on their faces.

After Shu Mei's previous performance, everyone's fear of zombies was reduced a lot, and in their eyes, Shu Mei was already a shining golden thigh and a peerless hero. At this moment, no matter whether it was classmates who were familiar with her or had only met her, they all began to get close to Shu Mei subtly.

They don’t know how long the apocalypse will last. Maybe the army will immediately get rid of these stiff zombies and let everyone live a peaceful and stable life again. But the greater possibility is that the apocalypse will continue, and the zombies may become stronger and stronger.

And no one knows what caused the apocalypse. Now everyone only sees humans mutating into zombies, but what about animals? What about plants? Have they changed, too?

If, as they had discussed in the suite before, things were really going to turn out differently, then they would have to make more plans for the end of the world.

Shu Mei is now everyone's hope. As long as they follow her, they will be on General Li's "Noah's Ark". Even in the end times, the military is the most powerful. If they become Shu Mei's good friends, General Li will take better care of them for the sake of his daughter. Then they don't have to worry about their safety even in the end times.

Everyone thought far ahead and performed even more seriously afterwards, fearing that Shu Li would think they were holding him back.

So this time they quickly came to the hotel's kitchen.

Because the apocalypse happened at night, the kitchen was locked. Shu Mei took a look at the lock on the kitchen door, and the power user who had previous abilities took the initiative to pull off the combination lock with his hands.

They entered the kitchen. Although it was not large, it looked very clean.

Without waiting for instructions from the student union president, everyone followed the previously made plan. Some people took the supplies, such as the previous power and space ability users, who were the main force in transporting the supplies this time, while the other people were responsible for security work to protect the safety of others.

After dividing the work and cooperating with each other, they moved all the food in the kitchen away, and even took away a lot of meat in the freezer. In addition to food, they also needed to carry a gas stove and pots and pans, and placed these large items in the space. The level of this space-based psychic was only level one, and the space range was extremely small, but after all, a mosquito is still meat, and the carrying capacity of the space-based psychic exceeded that of everyone present.

After they finally gathered the supplies, they quickly returned to the top floor of the hotel.

But when I got there, I found that the situation had changed dramatically.

When they climbed the stairs to the fifth floor, Shu Mei heard a woman's scream coming from inside the iron door. Her heart sank immediately. A female psychic with enhanced five senses in the team also heard the noise inside the door, and even heard more than Shu Mei.

She immediately hushed and asked everyone to stop.

Everyone was feeling a little impatient. They were about to go back, so why stop here? But the girl's lips were trembling, and she said, "Something happened, something happened." She kept repeating this sentence, and it was obvious that she was scared.

Because Shu Mei performed outstandingly this time, fighting ten people alone, nothing happened when they came out to collect supplies this time, which instead gave them a boost of confidence. However, in the early days of the apocalypse, zombies are not scary, but humans are.

The girl burst into tears and said, "I heard a voice inside. It was a friend I know. She...she was being raped."

After she finished speaking, everyone fell silent. The corridor was eerily quiet. After hearing what she said, sounds from inside the door began to come over intermittently. Just as she said, the sounds of work could be heard in the corridor on the fifth floor.

The faces of everyone present turned pale. They all grew up in a peacetime, and were students at prestigious universities. They had grown up under the care of their parents. How could they have ever seen such a thing? The end of the world is already terrible enough, and now it’s only been one day and there has been a qj situation. Are those people still human?

The student union president's expression was not good either. He asked coldly, "Listen carefully again, can you hear some other information?"

The girl nodded while crying, trying to steady her breathing and pricked up her ears.

After a long while, she choked up and said, "I heard more than twenty footsteps, or more than thirty, I'm not sure, but there were a lot of people, and they were all heavy. They seemed to be men's footsteps, and there were also several men breathing very close to the door."

She wiped her tears and saw the girl next to her comforting her, so she shook her head and said, "I'm fine. I vaguely heard them say that they wanted to exchange food for people, and they also said they wanted to catch them all in one fell swoop."

As soon as she finished speaking, all the boys and girls present turned pale. The student union president was a leader after all, and it was impossible for him to go with the flow in such a situation. He adjusted his glasses and said, "We can't just leave it alone. If these people just want supplies, we can give them to them. After all, there are many stores nearby, and there is no shortage of supplies. As long as they are brave, they will not starve to death. But these people are obviously up to no good. They did something like that, which shows that they are ruthless. We can't confront them head-on."

He paused, and everyone said that they would definitely not run away, but would choose to save people. After all, they were all people they knew well, and they were still students with relatively simple minds. Even if they knew it was dangerous, they would definitely save people for the sake of their friends.

The student union president breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That means we have to save people, but how to save them is the most important thing. We can't just rush out. Who knows if these people have weapons, or even guns? Although we have people with special abilities, their abilities are not high. Killing zombies is fine, but killing people will probably be a mental obstacle. So, let's think about what we should do now."

Everyone started discussing at once. Shu Mei leaned against the wall, feeling puzzled. According to the plot description, there was no such part. Even if there were two forces in the hotel, it would take three or four days for the people from the other force to gather together.

Moreover, there is no conflict of interest between the two sides. The other side's forces are all young and middle-aged people in this area. This side is close to the suburbs, so even the young and middle-aged people are mostly simple and honest like country people. Seeing that they are a group of college students, they did not make things difficult for them. Sometimes they would even take care of them and help them.

In other words, the people who are doing evil on the fifth floor are not the group of young and middle-aged people who appear in the plot. So, who are these people? Why did you come to this unremarkable hotel right after the apocalypse? They are cruel and ruthless, and their methods seem despicable. They are definitely not ordinary people in society. They might be the underworld forces before the end of the world.

So, the bigger question is, why are they here? What exactly is their purpose?
