Survival in the apocalypse, teammate Xia Shiyu at the start

[Second Place: Saeko Busujima, Survival Points: 100]

"Bukujima Saeko?"

Shen Zhao paused for a moment, looking at the name thoughtfully.

"Is it a case of the same name, or is it another anime goddess?"

He had a vague premonition.

The second-ranked Saeko Busujima is not the same person as Utaha Kasumigaoka.

It's that swordsman from Highschool of the Dead.

If it really is the other side, it wouldn't be surprising if they could kill ten zombies.

[Top of the list: Saeko Busujima, Survival points 170]

In the blink of an eye, Saeko Busujima's score suddenly surpassed his, placing her in first place and ahead of him.

Furthermore, because his points stopped increasing, the gap between the two continued to widen.

Shen Zhao didn't even bother to think about whether the other person was actually an anime goddess who had come to life.

He looked up at the black ghost who had wiped out all the zombies on this floor and returned to his side to protect him.

He ordered, "Black Phantom, keep killing!"

Having a cheat code and then being ridden by a woman is intolerable.

It would be more like that if it were in bed.

Upon receiving the order, the black ghost, who had been standing still, rushed into the stairwell with its lightsaber.

The sounds of clattering and clanging, along with the howls of zombies, came from upstairs.

Then Shen Zhao's points on the leaderboard started to increase again.

Shen Zhao stood still, staring at the leaderboard.

Only when his name returned to the top of the list did a look of satisfaction appear on his face.

Looking at the name ranked second, he said with anticipation, "Saeko Busujima, I wonder if I'll ever have the chance to meet her."

Chapter Six: Survival Shop, Virus Serum!

A street in a city overrun by zombies.

A tall, purple-haired girl stood amidst the corpses, a samurai sword in hand, a blissful smile on her cold, beautiful face.

After savoring the moment, she swung her knife to wipe away the blood and opened a screen of light that only she could see.

Staring at the top name, a strange light flickered in his slender phoenix eyes: "Shen Zhao, I look forward to meeting you."

After closing the light barrier, the purple-haired girl turned her head and raised her voice, saying, "It's safe now, you can come over."

A short while later, a man and two women emerged from a building across the street and rushed toward her.

The ordinary-looking bespectacled man quickly ran to the girl's side and praised her enthusiastically, "Senior Busujima, you are amazing! You killed all the zombies like cutting melons and vegetables!"

Behind him was a mature and dignified woman in a kimono, leading a blonde girl with twin ponytails who looked remarkably similar to her.

The woman in the kimono bowed slightly and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Ms. Busujima."

The girl with golden twin tails next to her looked at the purple-haired girl with adoration, then suddenly pointed to a wound on the girl's left arm and exclaimed in surprise, "Ah! Busujima-senpai, you're injured!"

The bespectacled man was shocked: "What? Senior Busujima, you're injured? Are you alright?"

The purple-haired girl glanced at it casually and said indifferently, "It's just a minor injury."

The woman in the kimono asked with concern, "Are the points earned from killing these zombies enough to exchange for the serum?"

The purple-haired girl nodded: "That's enough."

"That's good." The kimono-clad beauty's voice was gentle. "Miss Busujima, you should go and exchange for the serum injection first. Leave the transportation of supplies to us."

The bespectacled man volunteered, "I'll go with Miss Busujima."

The purple-haired girl refused: "I can go by myself. Aki-kun, you stay here and help Mrs. Sawamura. Be careful."

He then nodded to the woman in the kimono, gripped his katana, and turned to walk across the street.

The kimono-clad beauty glanced at the bespectacled man who was still staring at the purple-haired girl's retreating figure and teased, "If Tomoya-kun were to chase after her now, Busujima-san probably wouldn't insist on sending you away."

"W-what?" The bespectacled man shuddered as if he had been electrocuted, and turned around in a panic. "I didn't mean that."

The girl with the golden twin tails curled her lip and said disdainfully, "Even if you wanted to, it would be wishful thinking! Senior Busujima wouldn't even look at someone like you."

The bespectacled man blushed and said, "I just admire Senior Busujima."

The woman with the golden twin tails scoffed, "You know perfectly well whether it's true or not."

The woman in the kimono chuckled and interrupted their argument: "Alright, let's not waste any more time. Let's get down to business."

The bespectacled man said, "I'll go in and check the situation first."

After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the convenience store on the side of the street.

"Let's go too."

The woman in the kimono, holding the hand of the girl with golden twin ponytails, followed.

at the same time.

Shen Zhao was standing in front of a slot machine-like machine on the top floor of the hotel.

"This is the Survival Mall trading terminal?"

He pressed the power button, and a redemption list immediately appeared on the screen.

Shen Zhao's gaze swept over the guns and food, finally settling on one item.

[Anti-Zombie Virus Serum: Injection kills the zombie virus and cures infection. Repeated injections within 24 hours are ineffective. Exchange price: 100 Survival Points.]

Shen Zhao suddenly realized: "No wonder Saeko Busujima's points suddenly increased so rapidly. It seems she knows about the serum and has started to go all out."

The availability of serum has greatly reduced the risk of infection when fighting zombies.

Even if you get injured in battle, you'll be safe as long as you kill ten zombies before you mutate to get the serum.

The only limitation is that you must wait 24 hours after the first injection before you can get another one.

Besides the serum, another item also caught Shen Zhao's attention.

[Enhanced Suit: Greatly increases strength and defense when worn; exchangeable for 1000 Survival Points.]

This enhanced suit can significantly improve players' combat power and survivability.

Unfortunately, the exchange price is as high as 1,000 points, and probably not many players in this game can afford it.

Shen Zhao guessed to himself, "It should be prepared for players who pass this trial."

Because the reward for this game is exactly one thousand points.

He didn't think it was purely a coincidence.

After browsing the items in the Survival Shop, Shen Zhao opened his personal panel.

-

Name: Shen Zhao

Number: 0125-**

Access Level: None (Prospective Player)

Survival Points: 430

Assimilation materials: None

-

From yesterday until now, Black Ghost has killed a total of 43 zombies, earning him 430 survival points.

I can't afford the enhanced suit, not even at half price.

Shen Zhao thought for a moment and then exchanged for a vial of serum.

He, being of demi-human blood, is not afraid of infection, but he has to prepare for Kasumigaoka Utaha.

He's taken advantage of everyone, so of course the promise to protect them must be fulfilled without compromise.

Chapter Seven: Strive First, Enjoy Later!

Shen Zhao spent the entire morning getting to the top floor of the hotel.

He didn't need to lift a finger; all the zombies were easily dealt with by the Black Ghost.

He wasn't even given a chance to try out the ability to regenerate from death.

After exchanging a vial of anti-zombie virus serum at the Survival Mall trading terminal, Shen Zhao returned to the couple's suite.

His demi-human bloodline allows him to regenerate indefinitely, but it doesn't mean he'll never go hungry again.

You still need to eat three meals a day.

As Shen Zhao opened the door and stepped inside, he was not surprised to find that Kasumigaoka Utaha on the waterbed was still asleep.

He muttered to himself, "It seems like we went a little too far."

There was nothing he could do; the anime goddess he could only dream of had become a real person, which made him extremely angry.

Kasumigaoka Utaha, this delicate middle school girl, simply couldn't handle it.

Shen Zhao did not disturb Shi Yu's rest.

After having some cookies and chocolate for lunch, I took off my shoes and went to bed to take a nap.

However, after lying down with my eyes closed for a while, Shiyu's graceful and alluring figure kept appearing in my mind.

Kneeling, prone, doing the splits, V-shaped...

He opened his eyes and turned to look at the sleeping girl beside him.

If it happens again, this anime goddess might lose half her life.

He's not the kind of person who enjoys torturing women for amusement.

Shen Zhao's gaze swept downwards, fixing on those slender, delicate black-stockinged feet.

Developing new ways to play is a good idea, but we need to clean it first to ensure hygiene before starting.

More than half an hour later.

After trying out four different ways to pair black stockings with bare feet, Shen Zhao was finally able to calm down and take a nap.

Sleep until you wake up naturally.

When she opened her eyes, she found that Kasumigaoka Utaha was no longer beside her.

Shen Zhao sat up on the bed and stretched out his arms in a comfortable yawn.

Then, smiling at the girl in a JK uniform standing by the window, he asked, "Have you rested enough? Have you eaten anything?"

The girl did not respond, but stood quietly by the window, gazing at the scene outside.

Shen Zhao got out of bed and walked to her side, saying calmly, "This city is finished; it's overrun with zombies."

"It's daytime now, and most of the zombies are inside the buildings. At night, the outside will become a zombie paradise."

He paused for a moment, then smiled and said, "But don't worry, because I will protect you."

Upon hearing this, the girl finally reacted.

She turned and looked at him with eyes full of resentment.

The next second, a syringe was handed to her.

Shen Zhao said in a casual tone, "Anti-zombie virus serum. If you are accidentally injured by a zombie, just give yourself an injection."

Kasumigaoka Utaha was stunned.

Shen Zhao directly stuffed the serum into her full breasts: "This serum can only be injected once every 24 hours, so we still have to be careful."

After saying that, he turned around and walked straight towards the door.
