Survival in the apocalypse, teammate Xia Shiyu at the start

Back on the second floor, Kasugano Sora immediately ran over and threw herself into his arms.

"elder brother!"

The silver-haired girl clung tightly to his waist, tilting her delicate face up to look at him nervously.

"You weren't hurt by the monsters outside, were you?"

"Of course not, a mere monster can't hurt me."

Shen Zhao stroked her long, silver-gray hair as he spoke.

Not only was he uninjured, but he also maintained his Force protection at all times, and there wasn't even a speck of dirt on his body.

That's how cool it is to be powerful!

Da da da--

Boom!

A series of rapid gunshots and explosions came from outside the window.

Shen Zhao turned to look outside.

"It seems that monster attacks are a common phenomenon."

He had a premonition that the dangers of this survival game were only beginning to be revealed from this moment on.

"I wonder how Saeko and Utaha are doing."

One has high-level equipment that he redeemed with the points he lent out, and the other has the TX Terminator and a mission exemption card.

They should be able to ensure their own safety.

Shen Zhao didn't worry too much.

After spending a few tender moments with Qiong, he changed Violet's dressing and checked her over.

Then he sat cross-legged by the window and entered a state of Force meditation.

The entire area surrounding this residence will be monitored and monitored.

Fortunately, it is unknown whether the death of the carnivorous centipedes released some kind of pheromone indicating danger in this area.

No new Mist Aliens attacked until it got dark.

Had dinner.

Shen Zhao looked at Kasugano Sora, who was picking up a camisole nightgown to change into, and after thinking for a moment, instructed, "Sora, take out your enhanced suit and put it on."

Although the commotion outside had long since subsided, it seemed that the large-scale hunting operation by the Mist Aliens had come to an end.

But he didn't think things would be calm tonight.

Just to be on the safe side, let Qiong Mei wear the enhanced suit.

In order to prevent him from failing to protect the delicate girl in the event of a large-scale monster attack.

"Oh."

Kasugano Sora obediently agreed.

She took out the enhanced suit from her spatial backpack and looked at him expectantly.

"Brother, this dress is so hard to put on. I can't manage it myself, can you help me?"

Chapter Sixty-Three: A Girl Who Lives by Obeying Orders!

Shen Zhao helped Kasugano Sora change into her enhanced suit with some difficulty.

It's not that the enhanced suit is that hard to wear.

Instead, while changing clothes, the silver-haired girl kept wriggling her small body and sticking close to him.

He finally calmed down after giving her a few hard slaps on her round, perky buttocks.

In other words, the timing was wrong.

Otherwise, if someone dared to provoke him so actively, they definitely wouldn't get away with just getting a few slaps on the butt.

After putting on the enhanced suit, I put on a white long dress over it.

Shen Zhao put Qiong Mei on the bed to rest.

He walked to the window, sat cross-legged on the floor, and focused on meditating on the Force.

Time passes minute by minute.

As night deepened, the town became increasingly noisy.

"His-"

"Jie Jie!"

"Ga! Ga! Ga!"

Various hissing and strange cries rose and fell.

The past two nights have also been anything but peaceful.

But the commotion was nowhere near as great as it was tonight, and the calls were not nearly as fierce and violent.

Use animals on Earth as an analogy.

The only sounds outside on previous nights were the crowing of roosters and the barking of dogs.

Tonight is the real active time for these fierce predators like jackals, tigers, and leopards!

Those players who escaped during the day will face a real test.

However, none of this had anything to do with Shen Zhao.

Just like during the day, no monsters came to harass him around his residence.

I don’t know how much time has passed.

Shen Zhao snapped out of his meditative state, opened his eyes, and turned to look at the bed.

Kasuga no Sora was already fast asleep.

The blonde girl lying next to her, who had been unconscious for more than a day, suddenly stirred.

Shen Zhao got up and stepped forward.

Violet slowly sat up, supporting herself on the bed with both hands, and turned her head to look at him.

Her pair of bright blue eyes were lifeless, like those of a doll.

"You're awake." Shen Zhao walked to the bedside and stopped, examining her complexion. "How are you feeling?"

The blonde girl's beautiful face was no longer as pale as it had been when they first met; a vibrant cherry blossom color appeared on her moonlit, fair cheeks.

“I feel great, I’ve fully recovered my fighting ability.” Violet gazed at him quietly. “Please indicate the enemy’s location.”

Shen Zhao raised an eyebrow, met her gaze, and said slowly, "I have many enemies, but I have a question I want to get an answer from you."

The blonde girl's face was expressionless.

Shen Zhao asked, "Why do you fight? What is the belief that sustains your fight?"

Upon hearing his question, Violet's face and eyes showed complete bewilderment.

Haven't you thought about this question?

The blonde girl became blank and lifeless again: "Soldiers don't need to think, they just need to follow orders and fight."

Shen Zhao asked again, "If that's the case, whose orders are you following? Where is that person now?"

“Following the commander’s orders, he is…” The blonde girl became confused and somewhat lost again, “The commander has been killed in action, and I should take command of the new commander.”

"Who is the new commander? Whose orders should I take?"

Shen Zhao tentatively guided her: "Your superior has been killed in action, and no one is controlling or ordering you anymore. You can act according to your own wishes."

"Of your own will?"

"Yes. For example, you protected Qiong before, do you remember that?"

“Kyū… I should protect Kyū, this is my new order.”

Shen Zhao reminded him, "Qiong is now under my protection. You can go do whatever you want."

The blonde girl seemed unable to understand his words: "Then what should I do? What is it that I want to do?"

Shen Zhao did not want to treat Violet as a tool without a self, and to brutally and directly possess her.

But given the girl's current state, if she were captured by the Crimson Guild leader or someone else, she might actually be trained into their personal weapon.

Since that's the case, let him take care of this violet-colored girl.

Protecting anime goddesses is our inescapable duty!

Shen Zhao said, "If you don't know what you want to do, then come with me to protect Qiong first."

Violet looked straight at him: "Are you my new superior?"

Shen Zhao nodded slightly: "You can understand it that way."

"Yes, sir." The blonde girl was no longer alive, as if she had rediscovered the meaning of her existence. "Violet is ready to fight at any time!"

Shen Zhao waved his hand: "No rush, let's wait until the enemy comes knocking. Let's rest and recharge first."

"As ordered!"

The blonde girl bowed respectfully and reached for her waist.

I didn't find the belt, holster, or pistol in the holster.

Only the long dress has a silky, soft fabric.

Violet panicked, lowering her head and groping herself with both hands.

Shen Zhao asked curiously, "What's wrong?"

"My weapon, my weapon is gone!" The blonde girl cried out in alarm, as if she had committed a grave mistake. "Without my weapon, I cannot fight for you."

Most of her weapons were damaged or lost in previous battles against the Mist Aliens.

The last pistol was also knocked away by Shen Zhao using his Force.

When Shen Zhao brought the girl back, he did not bring the mass-produced standard-issue pistol with him.

"Use this."

Shen Zhao took out a pair of pistols from the system space and handed them to the girl.

Chapter Sixty-Four: Fat Man Launcher, Heading Out for Reconnaissance!

Night fell.

Shen Zhao ended his meditation and opened his eyes.

What came into view was a beautiful and quiet blonde girl, like a doll, standing quietly to the side, wiping a fine silver-white pistol with a handkerchief.

He greeted her with a smile, "Good morning, Violet."

Violet paused for a moment, then quickly put the pistol back into its holster, turned around to face him, and stood at attention with her back straight.

He awkwardly mimicked, "Good morning, sir."

Shen Zhao asked, "Do you like these two guns?"

The blonde girl glanced down at the holster under her arm and nodded in reply, "I like it very much."

“Ebony and Ivory,” Shen Zhao said. “Their names.”

The girl murmured and repeated, "Ebony and... white ivory?"

“These two guns were once one of the weapons of a powerful warrior, and I believe you can truly unleash their power.”

Seeing Violet lost in thought, he didn't say anything more.

He opened the system and checked in on his own.

"Ding! Daily check-in successful, reward received: [M42 'Fat Man' Nuclear Launcher]. Please claim your reward."
