35: Chapter 23 Nazi Zombies (Part 1)

Today’s floor clearing operation proceeded slowly but smoothly.

Zhao Jingye was not up to any tricks; he realized that the experience of killing more zombies could make survival easier, so he made a concerted effort.

The bald man also changed his mind, appearing to make amends for his poor image in the eyes of others, killing zombies without hesitation.

Of course, this was largely due to the presence of Tang Zheng and Lin Weiguo, who would step up to tackle any group of four or more zombies, leaving behind a manageable number even for a stewardess to handle.

Everyone saw through Tang Zheng’s motive for this operation: besides clearing the floors, he wanted them to get accustomed to the killing and learn the weaknesses of the zombies.

The plan seemed to work; by the afternoon, even the timid Bai Guo took up Tang Zheng’s long spear and dared to jab it into the zombies’ heads.

This baby-faced, buxom girl, having less than a year of work experience, preferred the cold weapon to handguns; moreover, there were no worries about running out of bullets.

Because they were working together to kill the zombies, the team atmosphere drastically improved compared to the first two days.

There was chatting, laughter, occasional banter, and discussions on artistic ways to kill zombies.

At dusk, the operation ended, and everyone returned to Suite 1208.

The suite was diagonal to 1207 and unoccupied with a little shade and no floor-to-ceiling windows, eliminating the worry of hunters’ surprise attacks.

It was also near the elevator and stairs, which made escape more accessible.

While having a meager dinner, everyone fervently discussed the number of zombies they’d killed and how many items they’d collected.

Tang Zheng understood the principle of not overdoing it; rather than having them clear the hallway continuously, he would break into a suite every hour and reward the best performer by letting her rummage through everything after killing the resident zombies.

Anything found belonged to the individual.

Bai Guo’s luck was the best.

She found a cat’s eye gemstone necklace in a handbag belonging to an apparent female celebrity zombie.

After Kang Songde’s appraisal, it was reportedly worth over five million, which made Xu Lu and the others tremendously envious.

Presently, the necklace was being admired as it circulated among the women.

“Your plan is workable.

With another day, we could clean up the hallway’s zombies, and they would have the courage to tackle the two tank zombies and the hunter inside the kitchen,” Qin Yan, chewing on a slice of bread and sitting next to Tang Zheng, discussed the next day’s work.

“The special infector doesn’t seem to be common.

But if we encounter them, are you sure they won’t break down?” Zhao Jingye also naturally sat next to them, joining the discussion.

After slaughtering five standard zombies, the elite pride in him had resurfaced.

He felt zero pressure against these monsters.

“The more panic there is, the faster you die.” Yang Bin gave his judgment, took a sip of beer, and said, “What I’m worried about is bullets.

We consumed a lot today.

What will we do without resupply?

Engage in melee?”

“Didn’t we find the fourteen-member SWAT team on the eighth floor today?

Their equipment is enough for us to use for several days,” Kang Songde remarked.

He currently had an M88 helmet on his head, was wearing protective clothing, a bulletproof vest, and a tactical vest, and held an MP5 submachine gun.

Zhao Jingye finally upgraded from his toy guns, took up a Remington M870 shotgun that he wanted for a long time, and also had a gun holster on his right leg, containing an M1911A1.

With a weapon for self-defense, this was the reason for his newfound bravery.

The biggest achievement of the team today was finding the fully armed SWAT squad on the eighth floor that had infiltrated the Oasis Hotel with the intent to clear them, the ‘scoundrels.’ After taking care of these zombies, without any prompting, everyone rushed to strip the zombies of their equipment, rendering them bare.

There was just no way; the equipment was too enticing.

After dealing with them, everyone now had two guns each, and their tactical vests overflowed with ammo clips.

“It’s a pity, it would be great if a few more SWAT squads armed with heavy firepower arrived at the hotel,” remarked the bald man as he toyed with the clip from his MP5 submachine gun.

His eyes shifted, and he said, “Little Tang, didn’t you mention the other day that there’s a way to deal with those police outside the hotel?

Let’s do this.

With guns, we can definitely survive the remaining fifteen days.”

Xu Lu and Zeng Xue immediately agreed, and everyone else also looked at Tang Zheng, their eyes filled with anticipation.

“Let’s wait a little more.

It’s not the time yet,” Tang Zheng replied, not entirely confident.

He was unwilling to risk their lives unless absolutely necessary.

After working for a day, everyone seemed hardly tired, as they remained in the living room, chattering away, until ten o’clock.

They then retired to their bedrooms for some rest.

Tang Zheng and Lin Weiguo still slept in the living room, taking charge of the watch.

Xu Lu originally wanted to share a room with Zhao Jingye but was flatly rejected.

Captain Zhao had learned his lesson; he wouldn’t let his lower-half desires ruin his image.

There would be plenty of opportunities to have a woman later; his current goal was to secure the Captain position.

At midnight, Li Xinlan came out of her bedroom with two blankets and placed them over Tang Zheng and Lin Weiguo.

As she was about to go back, Tang Zheng called to her.

“You didn’t have to do all that,” Tang Zheng said, tugging at his blanket, “But thank you, nonetheless.”

“It’s no big deal, don’t worry about it,” Li Xinlan brushed her black hair from her forehead, saying softly, “If you feel indebted, take me out for a meal when we get back.”

Looking at the woman around her late twenties, enwrapped in her snug protective clothing and oozing mature charm, Tang Zheng didn’t reply.

Thoughts of An Xiuru and Mu Nianqi occupied his mind.

When he got back, it seemed he would have a lot to deal with.

“We were already dead, yet we ended up in that Silver Trojan room, participating in this Survival Challenge Game.

What should we do if we, by good fortune, manage to survive and go back to reality?

The armed police will surely investigate the place where we were declared dead.

What will happen with our corpses?” Lin Weiguo said with a bitter smile, his brows were knotted with worry.

“I suppose I will never see my wife and son in this lifetime again.”

“Don’t be so pessimistic.

Maybe the armed police won’t find anything?

If Silver Trojan possesses the technology to teleport us through time, why would you worry that you can’t go back?” Tang Zheng reassured Lin Weiguo, “See, everything is going as planned now.

As long as we work together, we will surely get back.”

“Well, I…” Lin Weiguo had only spoken half his words when he was interrupted by the playfully mocking mechanical voice of Silver Trojan.

“Toys, you seem to have had quite a good time.

The three-day period has passed.

The Punishment Troops are about to arrive, please prepare for escape or confrontation.”

Upon hearing this voice in their room, all traces of drowsiness disappeared from the occupants.

The three bedrooms were instantly filled with commotion.

“Damn it!

Can’t they let people sleep?

What the hell are they bringing this time?” the bald man grumbled as he walked out.

He glanced at Li Xinlan and asked Tang Zheng, “What are these Punishment Troops?”

“Did something happen?” Pang Meiqin asked, peering out from a small opening in her bedroom door.

“Trouble’s brewing.

You all better wake up and prepare for battle,” Tang Zheng said.

Noticing that Pang Meiqin was wearing suspenders pajamas, revealing her fair collarbone and shoulders, his anger flared, “This isn’t a vacation.

Get dressed in ten seconds or never come out.”

Though taken aback, Pang Meiqin didn’t argue.

Without even closing the door, she instantly turned to change into her protective clothing.

“Tang Zheng, don’t rush.

What happened to your calmness?” Qin Yan walked out with Bai Guo.

Both women were obviously wearing their protective clothing to bed, otherwise they wouldn’t be so quick.

Before Tang Zheng could reply, the voice of Silver Trojan came again.

“Toys, any delay invites danger.

The countdown starts now.

The Punishment Troops will arrive in ten seconds.

Ten, nine, eight…”

……..
