Apocalypse: Zombie Elimination Expert

Chen Tuo sat by the window for a full half hour, and as dusk approached, the three men, led by the bald man, finally reappeared.

They rushed out of Unit 2 of Building 6 and immediately crawled back into Unit 1 of Building 6.

Even from a height of sixteen stories, it was clear that the originally empty backpacks were now stuffed full, and the weapons of the three people were stained with a touch of crimson.

Chen Tuo frowned slightly.

Zombie blood isn't this color...

Looking up, the male homeowner who had been sitting by the window on the seventh floor of Unit 2, Building 6, was nowhere to be seen.

Combined with the screams that came from this location earlier, the motive for the three running into the building next door is self-evident.

This group of people ran to the neighboring apartment building to search for supplies.

However, they targeted living people.

Seeing the lights suddenly turn on on the third floor, Chen Tuo murmured.

"Is it because your floor is low that you're targeting the building next door?"

Chen Tuo's first impression of these three people was that they weren't good people, but he never expected them to be this wicked.

If you want to scavenge for supplies, there are plenty of empty rooms in the neighborhood to search.

On the other hand, in addition to searching for supplies, they also specifically targeted places where there were survivors, which suggests that they may have other plans besides searching for supplies.

Chen Tuo couldn't help but mentally label the three of them as trash.

However, in some ways, he still admired the three of them.

It's only the second day of the apocalypse, and most survivors are probably still in a state of extreme fear.

Let alone stepping out of the house, they probably haven't fully accepted the current situation yet.

In contrast, these three not only adapted to the environment immediately, but also had the inclination to do evil.

They even risked running to the next apartment building without fear of encountering zombies.

Scumbags exist everywhere, but they are usually restrained by the law, so they rarely cause trouble.

Now that the apocalypse has broken out and order has collapsed, the evil in people's hearts has been brought to the surface.

Ironically, it is sometimes precisely these kinds of people who are better suited to survive in a post-apocalyptic world.

The less moral boundaries a person has, the easier it is for them to adapt to the inhuman environment of the apocalypse.

Compared to normal people, they have a much higher chance of survival.

After all, even the worst environment can allow a rat in the gutter to survive...

Although he despised what the other party had done, it seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Chen Tuo wasn't blinded by a saintly heart; he didn't think of going out and killing the three people just to punish evildoers.

In the end times, everyone is in danger, and it's good enough if you can take care of yourself.

Chen Tuo didn't want to get involved as long as the other party didn't pose a threat to him.

However... one should always be wary of others.

At night, it's best to draw the curtains to avoid letting the other survivors know there are living people on the sixteenth floor through the lights.

After all, apart from these three, it's unknown whether the survivors are human or ghosts.

Some people may not have turned into zombies.

But the darkness that accumulates in one's heart may be more terrifying than zombies.

Chen Tuo is not afraid of being watched, but he hates trouble.

The curtains were slowly drawn...

……

The next morning, after one night.

After eating two eggs and noodles, Chen Tuo put his leather jacket back on.

At the same time, he put on the newly acquired helmet.

Besides the baseball bat hanging on the back of the backpack, there was also a short axe on the other side.

A sharp dagger was also sheathed at his waist, ready to be drawn at any time.

Yesterday, Chen Tuo stayed at home all day to adjust his schedule, so he naturally couldn't waste time like that today.

He planned to search upwards.

Firstly, they needed to continue searching for useful food supplies; secondly, they needed to kill zombies, familiarize themselves with their characteristics, and develop muscle memory for fighting them.

Only by hunting enough can one become increasingly adept at dealing with such creatures.

As for why we should go upwards first...

This was all because Chen Tuo's plan required clearing out all the zombies in Unit 2 of Building 8 where he was located, in order to pave the way for subsequent actions.

You can't clear all the zombies in the neighborhood, but you can manage to clear the zombies in your own building.

While searching for supplies, you can also hone your skills in fighting zombies.

why not?

In that case, checking the upper half first and then cleaning up the lower half is a very reasonable order.

Before setting off, to prevent the zombies downstairs from wandering up through the escape passage, Chen Tuo went to 1604 and moved out a freestanding, non-embedded wardrobe, placing it across the middle of the escape passage.

They then searched the three rooms again, moving out heavy items like shoe cabinets and using them as cover.

As a result, starting from the sixteenth floor, the escape route of Unit 2 in Building 8 was completely cut off.

Unless Chen Tuo, who is inside, actively removes these obstructions, it is absolutely impossible for the outside to move so much furniture.

It's impossible for a zombie to do that.

If it's someone with ulterior motives...

The noise from forcibly breaking through would be enough to disturb at least four or five floors above and below...

Having finished all this, Chen Tuo dusted off his hands, pressed down the goggles on his helmet, and, holding the short axe that was more advantageous in the narrow stairwell, headed upstairs...

……

Inside room 1702.

Shu Yao lay weakly behind the door, her face pale and bloodless.

She hasn't eaten for three days, as there isn't even a single grain of rice left in the house.

They could only satisfy their hunger by drinking tap water.

Drinking water doesn't provide enough to fill you up; it only provides a brief feeling of bloating and doesn't offer any energy to your body.

She felt that if she didn't eat soon, she might starve to death.

During those three days, she had pinned her hopes on a rescue from the army.

Although she knew from online sources that the zombie crisis was affecting the entire world and that the chances of being saved by the authorities were extremely slim.

But what if?

But as time went by, that hope was gradually worn away, and she despaired.

The only way out now is to leave home and find food on your own.

For example, in the house next door...

But outside the door, her neighbor, now a zombie, was wandering aimlessly in the hallway, and a look of despair appeared in her eyes.

For some reason, after my neighbor turned into a zombie, he actually came out of his house and into the hallway.

Since the signal disappeared, for the past three days, the thing she has done most is to observe the zombies outside her door, trying to find an opening to rush into her neighbor's house.

She had already observed that there was a gap in the neighbor's door. If she could find the right moment to rush out and squeeze through, she could not only avoid the zombies but also find food.

But these past three days...

She had sought countless opportunities.

He even mustered up the courage to open the door no less than ten times.

Before they could even take a single step, their neighbor, now a zombie, would rush towards them.

Seeing that inhuman, distorted face, Shu Yao could only retreat.

More importantly, the zombie seemed to know there was a living person behind the door. It had been wandering aimlessly in the corridor for the past two days, but now it was specifically roaming in front of the door, making it impossible for the zombie to find even the slightest chance.

Looking at the zombies still lingering outside the door, Shu Yao burst into tears of grievance...
