After Lian Ru Ning woke up, she replaced Hao Jian so that she could rest and Xin Ting fell asleep because of sleepiness, but they didn’t sleep for long because Lian Ru Ning had to wake them up.
“Zombies are chasing, it’s time to go!”
The sky was completely bright when Hao Jian slept, but their surroundings were quiet, there was no wind and even the grass and trees did not make a sound. Lian Ru Ning wanted to climb to the top of the teaching building to gain a broader view, but the door was locked so she could only wanted around the classrooms.
Behind the teaching building is the township road, and on the edge of the township road are houses of three to four stories high. Lian Ru Ning suddenly found the shadow of zombies in a house on the third floor window. She panicked and forced herself to calm down.
A zombie was dangling in the yard, and when it found Lian Ru Ning, it immediately made a sharp cry and slammed itself to the door like a blind person. Lian Ru Ning thought secretly, ‘Oops!’ She immediately turned and went downstairs to the school gates, looked around, and found that there was already a group of zombies wandering aimlessly in the distance.
“Hao Jian, Hao Jian!” She called through the intercom.
Hao Jian opened her eyes suddenly and sat up from the bed. She took the walkie-talkie to confirm the situation and went to Xin Ting’s room to call her. Xin Ting was also a bit sober and asked, “Zombies found us?”
“It won’t be long until they do. It will be difficult to leave the school by then.” Hao Jian said that once Xinhe Primary School that only has one entrance is surrounded by zombies, they can only be besieged to death!
Xin Ting shook her head subconsciously, “No, I won’t go. We will die as soon as we go out!”
“But if you stay here, you will die.” Hao Jian was not good at persuading her, so she explained thoroughly, “Zombies will surround this place soon. They could break through that rusty school gate or they can’t, either way, you can’t leave. You will only experience hunger over and over again. You will find that you will get hungrier day by day. In the end, the only thing you can do is open the door when you can’t take the hunger anymore and let the zombies eat you.”
“Ah–” Xin Ting trembled just imagining the scene and she screamed. Hao Jian furrowed her eyebrows and covered her mouth after yelling for the first time, “Do you want to die faster?!”
Xin Ting was so frightened that tears burst out, she pushed Hao Jian away, “Why do you care about me? Just leave by yourself. Just ignore me and don’t tell me these things!”
Hao Jian was slightly surprised. She thought that Xin Ting would complain and resent their presence that led to the current predicament, but Xin Ting was apparently timid but not unreasonable. Perhaps she knew that even if Hao Jian and Lian Ru Ning did not show up, she would still face such dilemma, but it was because of her cowardice and her deceiving herself!
“Because you saved us.” Hao Jian replied.
The voice of Lian Ru Ning came from the intercom. Hao Jian replied and grabbed Xin Ting’s arm with a firm and determined tone, “There’s no time for you to keep hesitating. Pack up and follow us immediately!”
Xin Ting wiped away her tears but they fell again. Although she was crying, she moved very orderly. She got up to find her duffel bag, put two sets of clothes in it and ran to the office to find a medicine box. In addition to gauze, the medicine box contained Chinese medicine, band-aids, alcohol, and disinfectant.
Lian Ru Ning saw her appear with it and said, “Now this is a vey precious resource.”
“The school is small and there are no medical personnel, so intern teachers like me also needs to learn basic first aid knowledge, and the medical kit is also in the office.”
Hao Jian’s voice came from the walkie-talkie, “The door is about to open.”
Lian Ru Ning stopped chatting with Xin Ting. According to Hao Jian’s strategy, she was responsible for driving and Hao Jian was responsible for opening the gates. When driving, it was bound to make some noise and attract the group of zombies so she should quickly pick up Hao Jian at the school gate, then drive to the opposite direction from the group of zombies.
Lian Ru Ning didn’t want Hao Jian to do such a dangerous thing, but Hao Jian said, “You have enough sleep. Don’t stop after driving. Keep driving so that I can make up for the rest.”
Lian Ru Ning felt that what she said was reasonable and couldn’t refute it.
Hao Jian grasped the crowbar in her hands and looked ahead. Because of the cry of the zombies in the residential building next door, the group of zombies wandering aimlessly noticed something and were not coming over. They obviously saw Hao Jian who was six hundred meters away, and after a strange cry, they speeded up their pace and rushed over.
At this speed, it takes less than five minutes for zombies to rush to Hao Jian and kill her. Hao Jian’s heartbeat suddenly sped up and urged, “The zombies have come around, and there are four minutes to escape!”
Lian Ru Ning was also very flustered, and at that moment, she found that the car wouldn’t start! Her heart was beating wildly while trying to get the car to start. Seeing this, Xin Ting decisively got off the car and shouted from behind, “I push, you continue to start!”
Hao Jian also noticed something wrong, but she couldn’t leave. Once the car still wouldn’t start after four minutes, she had to close the gate. It’s another matter in that case.
Before she knew it, her hand that was holding the crowbar tightened until her knuckles turned white.
“System!” She couldn’t help calling the system.
“What’s the problem with the host?” The system’s voice is always so calm and robotic.
“Are there any quick tasks to get us out of danger?” Hao Jian had to put her guard down from the system at this critical moment of life and death, and compromised.
“The main quest currently opened by the host is: ‘Deliver Love Lian Ru Ning to Southern City.’ Other than that, no quest has been received!”
Hao Jian breathed, she never felt so depressed. Sure enough, this system cannot directly intervene in the situation.
Seeing that the zombies rushed over and are already two or three hundred meters away, Hao Jian already prepared for the worst. Luckily, Lian Ru Ning finally started the car and shouted to Xin Ting, “Get in the car!”
Xin Ting quickly climbed into the back seat. Instead of closing the door, she let Lian Ru Ning step on the accelerator and rush forward. Hao Jian also opened the gate completely at that moment and the car rushed out of the school door dozens of meters away. Hao Jian ran over and entered through the open door.
The moment Lian Ru Ning saw her sitting down, she immediately turned the steering wheel and turned the car to the opposite direction from which the zombies were chasing. Hao Jian took up the crowbar and closed the car door calmly.
The zombies rushed in front of them with more than ten meters in distance. Xin Ting’s voice trembled, “Quickly drive!”
Lian Ru Ning is also very nervous, her palms are sweaty, but the more she experiences something like this, the less she panics. The incoming zombies had already rushed to the side of the car, causing it to make muffled sounds. Fortunately, the zombies didn’t know how to open the door. Lian Ru Ning successfully drove the car away, and the zombies were also left behind.
Xin Ting glanced from the rear window, turned her head and led out a sigh of relief. She found that her hands were shaking. She didn’t even sweat in the scorching summer but she felt cold all over her body. The feeling of death is too terrible, but feeling that she was alive was also very wonderful!
Lian Ru Ning drove the car and suddenly laughed. Xin Ting was surprised when she saw Lian Ru Ning smile and shed tears. She remembered Hao Jian’s words, “Lian Ru Ning is also afraid of all this, but she still faces it bravely even if she is afraid.”
Lian Ru Ning was also scared, but she never thought of giving up, so they escaped.
Xin Ting suddenly felt emotional. She looked at Hao Jian gratefully, only to find that Hao Jian was silent while pursing her lips, her body was so sweaty, soaking her clothes.
Despite being calm, Hao Jian would also feel scared, but she also never thought of dying in vain. She was responsible for every decision she makes. She has the confidence to live, so she will not think about the outcome of death.
Suddenly, Xin Ting felt that with two partners like this, she had no reason to back down even if she was afraid.
On the bumpy county dirt road, a half-worn car was passing through. There was a crack in its windshield and irregular bloodstains on the front cover.
When Lian Ru Ning tried to stabilize her emotions, she ran into a zombie again, and the zombie hit the windshield that caused the glass that had suffered multiple impacts already, crack, as if a few more impacts will shatter it.
Hao Jian was sitting in the passenger seat with her eyes closed, and Xin Ting fell asleep in the back seat because of fatigue.
Even without a map’s guidance, Lian Ru Ning still found a provincial highway according to the signs and drove in the direction of Nanfang city.
In the face of this crisis, she knew that she would never give up the decision to return to Southern City to find her family. She was also very grateful to Hao Jian, who accompanied her through these dangers.
At this time, Hao Jian was communicating with the system and the system’s non-interference policy with reality made it very clear to her that she will not have any advantage in their situation of survival during the apocalypse.
However, the system said, ‘The idea of the host is not completely correct. The reason for the emergence of the doomsday survival system is to provide the host with the opportunity to survive. As long as the host completes tasks and collect achievements in accordance with the requirements of the system, there is a chance to gain more help. .”
After all, the system did not provide her with more information because of her incomplete trust, so the system took measures to induce her into following the requirements of the system while attacking her.
Hao Jian does not regret her skeptical attitude towards the system. If she blindly believed in the system and the system uses her to achieve some unknown purpose, wouldn’t she regret it for life?
Hao Jian’s heart had already begun to shake, so the system continued, “As long as the host completes the tasks and raises experience levels, she will gain more permissions, which is more conducive to the host’s survival.”
“Didn’t I already take the task?” Hao Jian was quite speechless.
“That is the main quest 1. If the host is willing, you can also start side quests, daily quests, and reward quests. . .”
Hao Jian gritted her teeth, “Then, when I asked you if there are available tasks, why did you say no?”
“The words the host used when asking were ‘quick mission’ and ‘out of danger’. When the level of the host is not up to the requirements, the tasks and conveniences of the relevant permissions will not be activated. The host’s problem is determined to be unqualified after analysis, so there was no corresponding tasks to provide!” The system justified.
“Your system is. . . very technical.”
“The host is also very pragmatic.”
Hao Jian had no temper, “Then I would like to ask the System Version 2018, aside from the main quest 1, are there any tasks that I can complete at present?”
The system searched for a moment and said, “The current host’s level is too low. If the host wants to upgrade quickly, she can choose the ‘Affection Task’.”
“Didn’t I complete the ‘Affection Task’?” Hao Jian still remembers her three confessions!
“That’s the ‘Bind Affection Task’, and it’s just a prelude to the ‘Affection Task’.”
Hao Jian was speechless for a while and then asked, “What are these ‘Affection Tasks’?”
“There are two kinds of ‘Affection Tasks’, one is to kiss your partner, which gains 1 experience and 5 points each time. The other is to have sex with your partner, which gains 20 experience and 200 points every time.”
What Hao Jian first thought of was not the absurdity of the task, but the difference in rewards between these two tasks, “Your rewards have a huge gap, did you deliberately lure us to the last step?!”
“The tasks are issued by the central system and not determined by host systems.” The system said it was innocent.
Hao Jian took a look at her experience and points. in the early morning, she killed a zombie, so there was a corresponding bonus point and the number of survival days also added a basic point. Overall, she had 39 experience, and 25 points. Upgrading to level 2 requires 100 experience. If she doesn’t kill zombies and complete the task, it will take her 61 days to gather all the experience.
This system. . . Isn’t it enough to let me confess to Lian Ru Ning?!
After Lian Ru Ning woke up, she replaced Hao Jian so that she could rest and Xin Ting fell asleep because of sleepiness, but they didn’t sleep for long because Lian Ru Ning had to wake them up.
“Zombies are chasing, it’s time to go!”
