Apocalypse: Zombie Elimination Expert

He could tell that Shu Yao and Chen Tuo had a special relationship; they were probably not just ordinary friends.

They might have minor disagreements and not cause any problems, but when it comes to issues that cross a man's bottom line, like women, things get really serious...

Li Wenwu waved his hand impatiently and said casually, "Oh, I know, I'm not interested in her. I like lolis."

Zhang Shanhai remained silent.

Jiangxin?

That would be even more damn dangerous.

If Li Wenwu really had any feelings for her, he'd probably be castrated on the spot...

Li Wenwu was taken aback and quickly explained, "I wasn't talking about Jiang Xin. At first, I thought she was cute, but now? I can't even avoid her."

Zhang Shanhai nodded, "That would be best..."

.......

Before we knew it, it was almost noon.

In a room that had been cleared out on the sixth floor, Chen Tuo and the others sat on the sofa, each munching on bread and drinking beverages, which was their lunch.

The five people were dressed similarly to yesterday.

In this weather, thin inner clothes can be washed and dried overnight, and outer clothes can be wiped with water.

Given the limited resources, we can't be as particular as we were before the apocalypse.

Four floors were cleared out in total this morning.

Having dealt with zombies quite a bit, I know that these ordinary zombies are slow and only act on instinct.

As long as you maintain distance and don't get cornered immediately, they are quite easy to deal with if you have a weapon.

Most people can handle it as long as they don't encounter evolved zombies.

Each household typically has two to four zombies, with most having only one, so there's not much risk in clearing them out.

After descending four floors, Shu Yao's backpack was already full.

Even Zhang Shanhai got quite a lot.

Chen Tuo was planning to clear out the entire hall in one go during the afternoon.

In this way, the entire Unit 2 building will be thoroughly cleaned, and we can proceed to the next step according to plan...

After resting for a while, the group set off again.

Chen Tuo, along with Shu Yao and Jiang Xin, prepared to clean the fifth floor.

Zhang Shanhai then led Li Wenwu to the fourth floor.

After a familiar set of procedures for breaking into the house, Jiang Xin immediately rushed inside, wielding a sledgehammer and spear.

She seemed quite enthusiastic about killing zombies, showing no fear in her eyes, but rather excitement.

Shu Yao was very envious of her unique talent, knowing that it took Chen Tuo a lot of effort to completely overcome his fear of zombies.

I wish I could have such a big heart...

"let me!"

As soon as Chen Tuo kicked open the door, Jiang Xin immediately took action.

A spear pierced straight into the zombie's eye socket.

In an instant, black blood splattered.

Because Chen Tuo had informed Jiang Xin of the zombies' weaknesses beforehand, Jiang Xin did not let her guard down.

After the zombie fell to the ground, she stirred it around inside several more times with her spear, only stopping when she was certain it was absolutely dead.

"Not bad, your aim is getting better and better."

"That's it, that's it!"

Jiang Xin's little face was practically sticking up to the sky.

She felt more accomplished from her idol's praise than from successfully killing zombies.

Chen Tuo smiled.

Compared to Shu Yao, Jiang Xin is quite special.

Despite their physical disadvantages, they have a uniquely advantageous mindset.

When it comes to dealing with zombies, he's quick-witted and often comes up with ideas on his own without needing any prompting.

Therefore, Chen Tuo did not develop a special training plan for her.

Unlike Shu Yao, she doesn't need to improve her physical strength through training.

Even with training, her petite frame wouldn't be able to support her in wielding most proper weapons and fighting zombies head-on.

Instead of wasting time improving your meager physical limits, you should focus on becoming more proficient with your weapons and enhancing your footwork.

Her role is more about assisting, restraining, and finishing off zombies in battles, rather than directly confronting them.

As for Shu Yao...

Chen Tuo was stricter with her, and was training her to be a key player.

Even if she is just a woman, she would still surpass most men in combat skills.

She has that potential...

"Let's search for something!"

After checking that there were no other zombies in the house, Jiang Xin hopped into the kitchen and began to scavenge.

Before long, the scattered spoils were laid out on the table.

A bag of rock sugar, a bottle of pickled vegetables, a packet of noodles, and seven large potatoes.

The pickled mustard tuber and noodles were still unopened.

There aren't many items, but they are all valuable and can be preserved for a long time.

Originally, Chen Tuo's initial idea was to avoid everything except for fast food, canned goods, and snacks like chocolate that could replenish energy.

After all, I don't plan to live in the community for a long time, so the best I can take with me is food that can be preserved for a long time and is well packaged.

On the contrary, if you don't plan to leave, you can make the most of everything; you can scavenge anything edible...

Therefore, the supplies that Chen Tuo searched out and took away were extremely limited.

But then I thought about it again. After clearing out a whole building, there seemed to be a lot of fast food, but it wouldn't last long if we really used it all up.

In the current situation, we should save as much as possible.

While most fresh foods visibly spoil after water and power outages, some foods are just as good as industrially produced foods in terms of storage.

For example, potatoes.

You can boil it, steam it, grill it, or eat it however you like.

Not only does it taste good, but it's also filling and doesn't get boring like instant noodles.

Even if you can't finish it, you can try to cultivate it again once you leave the neighborhood and arrive at your next destination...

After realizing what had happened, Chen Tuo added Potato's name to the supplies he could take with him, and even made a special trip upstairs again to bring down the potatoes that some people had previously forgotten.

As for other ingredients that can be preserved for a short time like potatoes... Chen Tuo gave up on them.

Firstly, the quantity is too small, unlike potatoes which are almost a staple in most households, and they don't keep as long as potatoes.

Secondly, the amount of supplies that can be taken away is limited, and searching too much may not be a good thing.

Don't be fooled by how many bags and packages you can carry back every day. When it's time to leave, you still have to do a final inventory and leave behind some things that aren't worth the price.

For example, puffed snacks with large packaging but small portions...

"Let's go, next room..."

Before Chen Tuo could finish speaking, a series of urgent sounds came from downstairs.

Immediately following were Li Wenwu's screams and Zhang Shanhai's roars.

"What's going on?" Jiang Xin was stunned.

Chen Tuo sensed something was wrong and immediately rushed downstairs.

The two women immediately followed.

As soon as Chen Tuo rushed out of the fire escape, he saw Li Wenwu scrambling out of room 401, his face filled with terror.

Just one glance at the scene inside sent chills down his spine.

There were five zombies inside, and a sixth one had just crawled out from the inner room.

Such a terrifying number was something even Chen Tuo had never seen before.

It's like we've disturbed a zombie apocalypse.

Fortunately, Zhang Shanhai inside reacted quickly enough. He swung the steel bar to force back both sides while desperately retreating himself, trying to escape through the gate before being surrounded.

Chen Tuo, carrying a baseball bat and a short axe, was about to step forward to help.

What happened next completely surprised him...

boom!

The door... is closed.

Li Wenwu closed the door!

He was afraid that the zombies would run out and bite him, so for his own safety, he immediately closed the door.

They didn't care at all whether Zhang Shanhai inside lived or died.

Chen Tuo almost didn't react.

Seeing Li Wenwu, who was already paralyzed with fear on the ground, he kicked him without hesitation.

"Why the hell are you closing the door?"

"I...I...I..."

Li Wenwu was so tongue-tied that he still wanted to explain.

Chen Tuo was too lazy to listen anymore.

Fuck you!

Another kick landed on his face, and blood spurted from his nose instantly.

He quickly took two steps back and used the momentum to kick the door.

The door frame creaked loudly, and the door lock was warping...

Meanwhile, Unit 1, Room 304, Building 8.

"What's that noise?"

Red Hair, who was bored on the sofa and reading a magazine, heard the noise, went to the wall, and pressed his ear against it.

A few seconds later, his expression changed, and he quickly pulled the green-haired boy who was sleeping on the sofa over.

"Listen, isn't someone next door?"

Green Hair, who was originally drowsy, suddenly became alert after sticking to the wall.

"There really is someone here, and it seems to be someone from the apartment next door!"

"Quick, tell Brother Painted Face right away..."
