Survival in the apocalypse, teammate Xia Shiyu at the start

"Hello, I'm Kasumigaoka Utaha. Welcome."

"I am Saeko Busujima, welcome to both of you."

"..."

Kasugano Sora pouted even more, and finally said reluctantly, "I am Kasugano Sora."

Shen Zhao smiled and made arrangements: "Everyone has just come back from the game, you must be tired. Let's go back to our rooms and rest for a while, we can talk about other things later."

"Sayuri, arrange a room for D.Va. I'll take care of Ran."

“Yes, Mr. Shen.” The beautiful married woman bowed her head in agreement, and then said to D.Va, “Miss Song, please come with me.”

Sayuri Sawamura led D.Va out of the courtyard and into the house, while Eriri Sawamura left with her mother.

Afterwards, the other girls said goodbye to Shen Zhao and returned to their respective rooms.

Kasugano Sora, who wanted to stay close to her brother, was also coaxed away by Busujima Saeko.

After everyone had left, Shen Zhao turned to Ran Mouri and asked, "Where's Eri?"

The girl pursed her lips and answered truthfully, "My mother doesn't want to come."

Shen Zhao clicked his tongue.

The queen of the legal world is not someone who can be easily conquered by simply stuffing her with cream puffs and putting a collar and leash on her.

He said, "Let's leave her for now. Xiao Lan, you don't need to go back. Just stay here."

"Well..." Ran Mouri said hesitantly, "Shen Jun, I still want to go back and stay with my mother."

She quickly added, "I'll try to persuade my mother as soon as possible."

She also felt very embarrassed about being with her daughter.

However, the words Shen Zhao said after making her dizzy before returning to the space deeply moved her.

They've all been dragged into this brutal apocalyptic survival game, and they might die at any moment.

Why continue to bind yourself with the rules of the real world?

Besides, what's done is done, and cutting ties with Shen Zhao won't change the past.

Even for her mother's safety, she shouldn't have so hastily given up Shen Zhao's protection.

The last reason convinced Ran Mouri to accept this absurd fact.

However, Eri Kisaki was not as easily fooled as her daughter.

Even though she was obediently massaging Shen Zhao's legs with her daughter before the end, she immediately adopted a posture of severing ties after returning to her space.

Shen Zhao didn't think he could persuade Ran Mouri successfully, but he didn't stop her from going back.

He kissed the girl and said gently, "Okay, you go back first. I'll come find you after I've taken care of things here. Remember to open the door for me then."

After the exclusive spaces are merged, the player with the highest access level will have the highest control over the collective exclusive space.

You can refuse entry to other players and expel players who are visiting the communal private space.

If the players participating in the merge have the same permission level, they will be sorted according to their permission level experience.

If everyone has the same experience, then each person has equal control over the collective private space.

Eri Kisaki's authority level and experience are clearly not higher than her daughter's.

So with Ran Mouri's help to open a back door, Shen Zhao was able to enter the mother and daughter's private space.

Ran Mouri nodded obediently: "I will."

Then he said, "Then I'll head back now. Shen Jun, please say goodbye and apologize to everyone for me."

"Don't rush." ​​Shen Zhao pushed the girl to the rockery in the courtyard and made her lie down. "I asked Xiaolan to open a back door for me. In return, I'll open a back door for Xiaolan too."

After a long time.

Ran Mouri blushed and teleported away from the courtyard.

Shen Zhao stretched with a look of lingering satisfaction and walked into the house.

Next, he would ask about the experiences of Saeko and Violet, who were separated in this round of the game.

As he walked, he opened his personal panel to check.

-

Name: Shen Zhao

Number: 0125-1900/2600

Access Level: lv2 (9/10)

Survival Points: 91375

Assimilation Items: Key to the World (Misty Town Dungeon), Key to the World (Green Blood Wasteland Dungeon)...

-

The 9/10 score for the permission level made Shen Zhao very unhappy.

In contrast, the numbers in the survival points column are much more pleasing to the eye.

After earning over 64,000 points in this game, his total score surpassed 90,000!

If it weren't for the fact that the Key of the World was used to send Shiyu and the others to the Misty Town world for refuge, which consumed 12,000, it could have even exceeded 100,000!

In a cheerful mood, Shen Zhao arrived at Saeko Busujima's room, knocked on the door, and entered without waiting for a response.

"Shen Jun, you've arrived."

A cold and elegant woman with purple hair lay on the bed wrapped in a white bath towel, her slender and charming phoenix eyes glistening with tears.

After he entered, he reached out and lifted a corner of his chest.

Shen Zhao couldn't wait and quickly walked forward.

Upon entering, we discovered an even greater surprise.

Kasumigaoka Utaha lay behind Busujima Saeko, slowly raising one of her exquisitely beautiful legs, encased in sheer black stockings, and placing it around Saeko's waist.

Who can stand this?

Two or three hours later.

Shen Zhao stroked Shi Yu's heaving head as he listened to Saeko Busujima recount her experiences in the game.

To his surprise, Saeko Busujima and Violet, despite being separated from him, were assigned to be together.

The game scene they entered was also Green Blood Wasteland, and their missions were no different from Shen Zhao's.

In this survival game, two girls, both among the best of the "0125" generation of players, join forces to wreak havoc in the wasteland.

Saeko Busujima ultimately took first place in the points leaderboard, while Violet came in second.

The two of them earned a total of over 30,000 points!

"So, Saeko, you now have seven points of authority level experience."

Shen Zhao said thoughtfully.

"If we take the top spot again in the next match, we can both be promoted to Lv2."

Saeko Busujima nodded and said, "If Shen and Jun are separated again in the next game, that would indeed be the case. However, I do not wish for that to happen."

Shen Zhao laughed and said, "If we don't separate in the next match, we will still separate in the match after that when I upgrade to medium difficulty."

“When there is no other choice, you can only accept it.” Saeko gazed at him tenderly. “But Saeko would never choose to separate from Shinobu.”

These words made Shen Zhao unable to resist kissing her lips.

After a passionate moment, Saeko gently pushed him away and whispered, "Shen-kun, why don't you talk to Ms. Kasumigaoka?"

After saying that, she slid down and took over from Kasumigaoka Utaha to massage his thighs.

The beautiful girl with long, straight black hair got up and rinsed her mouth before returning to snuggle into his arms.

Shen Zhao held her delicate body and asked, "Shiyu, how have you been in Misty Town these past few days?"

“Everything went smoothly,” Shi Yu said, “but when the game ended, I failed my main quest and lost a thousand points.”

"Did I lose 1,000 points for failing the main quest?"

Shen Zhao narrowed his eyes.

Indeed, escaping the survival game comes at a price.

Not only does using the World Key consume points, but it can also result in a penalty for failing the main quest.

Chapter 126 The Price of Building a Harem: Ten Beauties Gather!

After experiencing three survival games, Shen Zhao learned that there was a point penalty for failing the main quest.

It is estimated that the vast majority of players are unaware of this information.

After all, the main mission requires survival for ten days.

Failure means certain death, so there's no need for any other punishment.

However, failing the main quest doesn't necessarily mean death; you might use the World Key to hide in another game scene.

The game space has also been patched to address this issue.

The mission reward is 1,000 survival points. The penalty for failure is the opposite: 1,000 points are deducted.

This made Shen Zhao feel that the burden on his shoulders was even heavier.

After all, this means that in each game he not only has to spend points to open portals and send the girls in his harem out of danger.

After the game ends, he also has to pay the fines for failing the main quest for all the girls.

Now he is responsible for seven beauties: Kasumigaoka Utaha, Kato Megumi, Sawamura Sayuri, Sawamura Eriri, Kasugano Sora, Kisaki Eri, and Mouri Ran.

Each round of tasks will deduct 7000 points.

In addition to the cost of using the World Key, each game basically incurs a fixed loss of 20,000 points.

As the harem expands, the amount of the fines will only increase.

In addition, after ten games, the girls will be forced to level up to medium difficulty.

According to information provided by a veteran player from the Crimson Blood Guild, the higher the difficulty of the main quest, the greater the rewards.

The corresponding penalties for failure will likely increase accordingly.

This means Shen Zhao's burden will be even heavier!

Shen Zhao couldn't help but sigh: "Establishing a harem is indeed not an easy thing!"

You could say that the more fun you have playing with anime goddesses, the more embarrassing it is to pay fines to the girls.

Fortunately, he has capable female companions like Saeko Busujima, Violet, and D.Va by his side.

Although Shen Zhao would never do something as tasteless as asking Saeko and others for points to build his harem.

But the fact that they could survive each survival game on their own was the greatest help they could give him.

"Looks like I need to find more girls who are both beautiful and capable in the future."

"We also need to properly train those girls who have little combat ability but great potential."

This is called increasing revenue and reducing expenditure.

The former is open source, which is something he can't control.

However, there are still some ways to cut costs.

For example, Ran Mouri is very valuable to cultivate.

If you inject her with a Class D enhancement serum and equip her with an Iron Man suit, she might not be able to dominate the game, but she'll definitely be able to protect herself.

When Shen Zhao thought of Ran Mouri, he naturally thought of her mother, Eri Kisaki.

That aloof and beautiful mature woman is still stubbornly refusing to accept reality.

It's infuriating.

His little Lan is still the most obedient daughter.
