Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System-Chapter 236: The Happy Life of the Manor
Accompanied by Qianqian and Lansiruo, Alex first took a look at the situation within the manor.
Due to the large number of female slaves being transferred here for cultivation and farming, coupled with the assistance of puppet warriors, the damaged parts of the manor have been completely repaired. There is no trace of the previous ravaging by zombies or the thunderous roar of cannons.
As for the vegetable fields, greenhouses have been set up. Alex took a general look inside, finding tomatoes, green vegetables, cucumbers, various beans, eggplants, and other vegetables planted. In addition, a few young girls intentionally planted some fruits such as strawberries, watermelons, and cantaloupes— all kinds of climbing fruits.
Especially strawberries, Alex knew that Qianqian, this young girl, particularly liked them. So, they deliberately planted a lot of strawberry fields.
These seeds were not provided by Alex but were scavenged by the corpse retrieval team and handed over as resources. As for the outside of the manor, it is filled with rice fields, corn fields, sweet potatoes, wheat, and other staple crops.
Around the entire field, a makeshift defense fence composed of wire and wooden stakes has been set up to barely resist zombies. It looks somewhat crude, but this generation doesn't have many ordinary zombies, and mutated zombies are either subdued by the tyrant plunderers or killed and buried in graves.
Therefore, even if the defense is poor, the people inside are still very safe. Without any accidents occurring, the female slaves working inside are very active.
Everyone enthusiastically cultivates the land and manages the fields. Qianqian did not use a communal pot system but assigned tasks separately for those involved in farming and those responsible for guarding.
Food and essential supplies are also distributed according to labor. There is a well-established control system in place.
Through this clear division of labor and a system of rewards and punishments, it has sparked the enthusiasm of everyone on the estate.
As a result, everyone on the estate is full of energy. Apart from the little girl, Blanche, there is basically no one who slacks off.
Looking at the vast green rice fields, Alex is very satisfied with Qianqian and others' work. It seems that it won't be long before there is a bountiful harvest here.
However, even though it's currently safe, the fences and defenses here are indeed too weak. Alex waves his hand towards the sky and commands the system, "System, upgrade City of Darkness No.2 to advanced! Use city walls to protect the entire valley!"
With Alex's command, the scene in front of him undergoes a spectacular change. Not only does the City of Darkness in the manor undergo rapid changes, but new walls also surround the manor. Some buildings also suddenly appear in the open space outside the manor.
As for the valley behind the manor, it seems as if it's experiencing a landslide and cracking, with tall and thick concrete walls completely enclosing the entire valley.
However, Alex's move almost depletes his Apocalypse Coins. Watching the astonishing scene before them, the female slaves here instinctively show expressions of shock and screams. However, soon after seeing Alex, these women quickly become accustomed to it.
Having witnessed Alex's miraculous displays before, the female slaves calm down and one by one kneel and worship at the spot where Alex stands, shouting long live.
After completing all of this, Alex satisfiedly turns to walk towards the newly established breeding area to inspect it.
In the breeding area, not only are piglets, chickens, ducks, and geese raised, but also rabbits, bamboo rats, and a few lambs and yellow cattle.
According to Qianqian's proud explanation, she caught these rabbits and bamboo rats from the mountains. The impact of the apocalypse in these mountains is not significant, so many wild animals have not mutated into zombies. Qianqian and others captured many small animals, supplementing Alex's recipes.
As for the two yellow cattle and lambs, they were collected from a nearby village in the forest. In that village, they not only found some survivors but also discovered yellow cattle and lambs.
Having such a variety of rich food in the apocalypse is indeed something to be proud of. After the inspection, it was already dinner time.
This time, Qianqian, Lansiruo, and others personally cooked, making several dishes with the newly grown vegetables. They also slaughtered several chickens, ducks, and a rabbit.
Dinner looked incredibly sumptuous, including fresh milk, dates, wild peaches, oranges, and pomelos found in the mountains. As for the milk, it was specially prepared by Nana, the cowgirl.
Alex took a sip from the glass, and although the milk had a slightly gamey taste, it was refreshing with a faint sweetness, quite enjoyable. Alex finished it in one gulp, smacked his lips, and turned to look at Nana with a wicked smile, asking, "The milk is delicious, is there more? I'd like to drink it straight from the source..."
While sipping the freshest milk, Alex was served this extremely luxurious meal in the apocalypse by his beautiful wives.
Must say, the cooking skills of my mutant wives are top-notch. Every dish is beautifully prepared, and the taste is extremely delicious. Combined with the attentive service of the beautiful ladies, Alex thoroughly enjoys the experience.
Time quickly passes in the company of delicious food and beautiful women. Finally, after Alex is "full," he recalls the system's voice.
"Ding dong! Burial of the A-level Zombie Evil King Whale is complete!"
"Increase 568 Apocalypse Coins."
"Gain 24 Constitution attributes."
"Gain 30 Endurance attributes."
"Gain 18 Mental attributes."
"Acquire skill: Sinful Sorcery."
"Level 3 burial site has been cleared; please bury again."
...
[Constitution, Endurance, Mental, all breakthroughs beyond the ordinary realm. Congratulations, host, for transcending the ordinary realm! Gain transcendent skill: Invisibility!]
Hearing the acquisition of the Sinful Sorcery skill, Alex's eyes suddenly light up. Alex has experienced the power of the Sinful Sorcery, understanding its characteristics and effects. freёwebnoѵel.com
However, with this Sinful Sorcery skill, even though the name is only one letter different, Alex is unsure of its specific effects. If it is similar to the skill of the Zombie Evil King Whale, it might solve the evolution problem of some important female slaves under Alex.
As for the new ability gained by entering the transcendent realm, it excites Alex greatly. Invisibility! Just hearing the name, Alex knows the functionality of this transcendent skill.
Invisibility! This is a very practical and somewhat sinister skill.
Alex used to read novels about invisibility online and always fantasized about gaining such a powerful ability. Then, I could do whatever I wanted with the assistance of invisibility, just like the protagonist in the books!
If this skill were placed before the apocalypse, Alex would undoubtedly be excited. However, in the present situation, he feels that the practical impact might not be significant. Because now, Alex can already do whatever he wants. Adding invisibility might just make him more mischievous...
"System! Check my body attributes!"

[Apocalypse Coins: 2450]
Looking at the long list of skills, Alex notices the absence of Sinful Sorcery. However, Invisibility has been acquired directly. It seems that Sinful Sorcery needs to be purchased.
Opening the unlearned skills tab, Alex commands the system, "System, give me an introduction to the specific functions of Sinful Sorcery."
[Sinful Sorcery: A special skill obtained from the corpse of the Zombie Evil King Whale. This skill is similar to the Sinful Insects skill of the Zombie Evil King Whale. However, Sinful Sorcery does not involve sinful insects. Instead, it induces complete addiction in the user through the secretion of a special substance produced by the host.]
[Sinful Sorcery has effects equivalent to Sinful Insects, but its power is slightly weaker than that of Sinful Insects. It primarily has three functions: 1. Detoxification; 2. Promotion of evolution; 3. Irresistible addiction.]
[Detoxification: After learning Sinful Sorcery, the host can use this skill to detoxify the zombie virus. However, this state is only temporary. If the host does not continuously receive the antidote supplement, the zombie state will return to its original form. Note: Zombies must be female zombies.]
[Promotion of Evolution: After obtaining the essence from someone with this skill, it can promote the evolution of ordinary humans, with a high probability of becoming a mutant. If the essence is absorbed multiple times, progress is inevitable. Individuals who have already evolved into mutants and receive continuous supplementation of the essence will become even more powerful.
Note: The one absorbing the essence must be female.]
[Irresistible Addiction: Once any creature absorbs the essence produced by this skill, they will inevitably become addicted. If not replenished within 3 days, they will experience extreme discomfort, weakness in limbs, and even symptoms of high fever, extremely uncomfortable! Those who have learned this skill will have no resistance.
Even strong-willed individuals will melt, and no creature can resist! Begging for mercy is normal. Note: Can be any creature but must be female or female-like.]
[Learning this skill requires consuming 3000 Apocalypse Coins.]
Alex looks at the detailed explanation, understanding each function thoroughly. Each effect is now clear in Alex's mind.
Even if Alex has figured out how to utilize the skill, there's a peculiar aspect in the notes that catches his attention. Why is this skill specifically targeting women? Can't it be used on men?
Alex's question quickly catches the system's attention.
[Host, this skill must be used in a special way, and then the essence must be injected into the user's body. The method is quite special, Host, you understand.]
Although the system's explanation is somewhat vague due to the influence of certain censorship principles, as a fellow practitioner, Alex quickly understands.
In fact, the previous annotations were already strongly hinting at Alex's direction.
Thinking about the Zombie Evil King Whale incident, Alex is confident that his understanding is absolutely correct.
Looking at the skill introduction provided by the system, Alex falls into contemplation.
Should he learn this skill now?
Alex is quite conflicted. The benefits of learning this skill are apparent. The ordinary female slaves under his control, who have not evolved, can evolve into mutants with the help of Alex, significantly increasing their strength.
However, there are also risks.
The risk, which may not be significant for others, is quite substantial for Alex.
According to the system's explanation, once these female slaves are evolved into mutants by Alex using this skill, they will be utterly dependent on him for more than three days. If Alex disappears for three days, these female slaves will be in a state worse than death. Additionally, Alex estimates that he might exhaust himself as well.

There's also the somewhat awkward skill of detoxifying zombies. Alex finds it awkward to consider using this skill to save zombies. They are zombies, after all, and Alex can't imagine using this skill to rescue them.
After thinking for a long time, Alex still can't make up his mind. The potential scenarios that might unfold make him feel a bit fearful.
