Apocalyptic Invasion: I Activated the Apocalyptic Points System

Five or six meters away.

The hunched monster seemed to be startled by Qin Xu's footsteps, and suddenly turned around, revealing a hideous, dark purple face.

It's a zombie!

"Awooo—!"

It roared at Qin Xu, raised its two purple arms, and pounced forward, its blood-red eyes gleaming with a bloodthirsty light.

Just then, information about the zombie appeared before Qin Xu's eyes.

[Mine Zombies]

Monster Type: Zombie

[HP: 100/100 (100%)]

Danger Level: ★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

[A zombie that turns from an ordinary human infected with the mist; its skin is tough; its weakness is its brain.]

Qin Xu immediately switched to real mode. With a slight thought, the Mo Dao appeared in his hand and he stabbed it into the head of the zombie that had pounced on him.

Pfft!

With its sharpness and killing intent, the blade instantly pierced the zombie's head, and with a forceful twist of both hands, it turned its head into a paste.

[Ding! You have successfully killed a low-level monster [Mine Zombie], Doomsday Points +2]

[Ding! Mission completion +1]

"Four more to go." Qin Xu glanced at the completion status of the guidance mission, put away his Mo Dao, switched back to data mode, and continued walking forward.

After making two turns.

At a slightly wider corner, we encountered another dazed mine zombie.

He switched to real mode first, gripped the longsword tightly with both hands, and stabbed at the charging mine zombie.

One-hit kill!

Doomsday Points +2, Mission Progress +1

At this moment, for Qin Xu, who possessed the Mo Dao, the low-level monsters no longer posed much of a threat.

Next, he used a flashlight to explore the maze-like mine.

The map was gradually improved.

Soon, he walked into a dead end, at the end of which was a space of about seven or eight square meters.

There stood a small, thin zombie inside.

It was incredibly fast. Almost the instant Qin Xu spotted it, it swiftly turned around, waving its arms as it attacked Qin Xu, emitting a piercing scream.

"ah---!"

Swift Zombie

Monster Type: Zombie

Special Attribute: Swiftness

[HP: 150/150 (100%)]

Danger Level: ★★☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆

You'd better stay away from it, because it's very fast. Weakness: Brain.

The moment the monster's information appeared before Qin Xu's eyes, the Swift Zombie had already rushed two meters away. Under the beam of the flashlight, its hideous face was extremely frightening.

Seeing the swift zombie so close at hand, he immediately switched to real mode, and with a slight thought, the Mo Dao appeared in his hands.

The most convenient aspect of the system space is that you can freely control where items are taken out, but they must be in direct contact with your body.

The Mo Dao (陌刀) instantly appeared under his armpit, its incredibly sharp tip aimed directly at the Swift Zombie's head.

Pfft!

The charging swift zombie crashed headfirst into the tip of the blade, and the force of the impact sent its head skewered like a string of candied hawthorns.

Qin Xu braced the hilt of his knife against the ground and took two steps back to regain his footing.

"Tsk~ As long as you use your brain, you can make zombies die on their own." A happy smile appeared on his face as he checked the system messages in front of him.

[Ding! You have successfully killed the low-tier elite monster [Swift Zombie], Doomsday Points +15]

[Ding! Mission completion +1]

[Ding! You have obtained a beginner-level elite monster illustration: Swift Zombie, Doomsday Points +2]

"How come you only have 15 points?"

Qin Xu subconsciously pursed his lips, kicked the monster's corpse away, and put the Mo Dao (a type of long-handled sword) back into his system space.

thump--!

The instant the Swift Zombie fell, a white light emanated from its body, instantly coalescing into an oval-shaped grenade.

[Ding! You have obtained a white loot item: High Explosive Grenade]

"Items can drop directly?" Qin Xu was slightly taken aback as he looked at the high-explosive grenade automatically picked up by the system. "Are there more than just question mark cubes and skill cards?"

After switching back to the data-driven mode, Qin Xu noticed a new treasure chest icon on the map, located in the corner to the right.

After he walked over, he indeed found a black box in the corner.

[Damaged Treasure Chest]

[Grade: White]

Send it to us quickly, there might be some treasure inside!

"Could it really be a treasure chest dropped during the apocalypse?" Qin Xu muttered to himself, squatted down, and reached out to open the black treasure chest, which was about the size of a shoebox.

There wasn't anything particularly surprising inside, just a water bag filled with water, two pieces of multigrain bread, two red apples, and a fist-sized piece of smoked beef.

After checking the item information, he found that they were all ordinary items. The water bag was made of animal hide and contained two liters of water, with a hanging rope.

"What exactly is the apocalypse trying to do? Why are they still sending out supplies?" Qin Xu asked, looking puzzled as he hung the water bag on his body and stuffed his pockets full of other items.

He then returned the way he came and continued exploring the unknown areas of the mine.

He only needed two more monsters to complete the guidance quest and obtain the extraordinary gene activation potion, and he was already quite impatient.

In the next seven or eight minutes.

He explored the remaining area and only killed one mine zombie, earning 2 Doomsday Points and 1 mission progress point.

"We were just one monster away from the entrance, but there's no one left!" Qin Xu, who had returned to the entrance, checked the mine map with a look of resentment.

After confirming that no monsters or supplies had been missed, he crawled out of the mine and returned to the surface, first looking up at the moon in the sky.

Nothing has changed.

He decided to put the things back in his pocket first, and then go to check out another cave.

A few minutes later.

Back at the temporary camp, he found that Zhang Yanan had gathered some firewood and lit a campfire.

"You're back." Zhang Yanan, who was warming herself by the fire, quickly stood up and smiled at Qin Xu. She felt like a wife waiting for her husband to come home.

Lin Xiaoqing, who was standing to the side, also stood up and smiled slightly at Qin Xu, "Thank you for your hard work." She didn't dare to say too much, afraid of upsetting Zhang Yanan.

"Okay." Qin Xu nodded, stuffed some of the supplies from his pocket into his backpack, and handed the rusty axe to Zhang Yanan. "Keep an eye on the supplies."

"Don't worry," Zhang Yanan took the axe, nodded solemnly, "I'll take good care of the supplies and wait for you to come back!"

After hesitating for a moment, she looked at Qin Xu and asked, "Do you need me to come out with you?" She didn't want to stay here and just wait to die.

"No need." Qin Xu shook his head. "Your task now is to keep an eye on the supplies for me." After saying that, he turned around and left the camp.

He wasn't afraid that Zhang Yanan and Lin Xiaoqing would leave with the supplies in their backpacks; in fact, he hoped that the two of them would leave with the supplies.

A few minutes later.

Qin Xu entered the second cave and walked down the slope for seven or eight meters before reaching the bottom. He shone his flashlight around and found that there were three cave entrances in total.

He opened the water bag, took a few sips of water, then took out a red apple from his pocket. While eating it, he looked around at the three holes and pondered which one to enter first.
