Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 104

The two sisters were overjoyed.

They had lived in several bases before, which were dirty, messy, and had few supplies.

There was no choice - they only had level one Supernatural Ability. The nearby cities' well-managed bases with abundant resources only accepted high-level ability users, and they couldn't get in!

Going further was too dangerous - with zombies and natural disasters, who knew when they might lose their lives?

They never imagined they'd have such a nice place to live now! And for free!

Of course, these rooms couldn't compare to those before the apocalypse.

But in their eyes now... it was practically heaven!

"Besides food, you can take other things from the stores freely, but be mindful and don't waste," said Gu Wanyin. "If you reach the threshold of waste, you'll receive a warning. After three warnings, there will be punishment."

"Don't worry, boss! We know our limits and won't waste anything!"

"We'll follow all your rules, boss!"

"Good. Rest for a while, then go learn from Xu Shi and the others. You'll officially start work tomorrow."

"Alright!"

...

The hotel opened an eyewear store, delighting customers who needed glasses.

Some people had lost their glasses when the apocalypse first started and had no way to buy new ones, suffering from their myopia ever since.

The eyewear store was in Building 2, with equipment for automatic eye exams. After the exam, it would recommend the most suitable glasses based on eye condition.

There were various choices for frames and lenses in appearance and quality. Prices ranged from dozens to thousands of points, with options for everyone.

Besides glasses, they also offered contact lenses, colored lenses, and even VR goggles.

The VR goggles were expensive, as they were extraordinarily magical. After putting them on and selecting a scene, users would feel almost completely immersed within seconds.

For example, if a player chose a primeval forest scene, they would feel as if they were truly standing in the forest. It didn't feel like wearing goggles - they could sense the surrounding temperature and even clearly smell the scent of vegetation in the air.

But as soon as the VR goggles were removed, they'd instantly return to the real-world scene.

Unlike the zombie-killing simulation training camp, these VR goggles were mainly for entertainment, so users wouldn't feel any pain or have any injuries.

Such VR goggles, along with corresponding equipment, cost tens or even hundreds of thousands of points.

Probably only the highest-level Supernatural Ability users could afford to buy them.

There was also an indoor sports complex.

This was in another pocket dimension, as it was incredibly spacious inside. It had badminton courts, table tennis halls, volleyball courts, swimming pools, and more, including indoor trampolines, rock climbing walls, basketball courts, and various other sports facilities.

The indoor sports complex cost eight points for two hours. Once inside, all activities were available without additional point payments.

This satisfied some people's exercise needs, as constantly going to the gym could get boring.

If the mood struck, customers could even organize table tennis tournaments, badminton matches, swimming competitions, and more.

There was also a photo studio.

All the cameras inside were automatic. Before taking photos, customers could adjust settings according to their needs, such as choosing angles, setting timers, adding beauty filters, and so on.

Of course, if a customer knew how to use the camera and wanted to take photos for another customer, that was allowed too. The cameras couldn't be damaged.

After taking photos, they would be ready in seconds.

Photos weren't expensive, just two points each. If customers weren't satisfied, they had one chance to retake.

However, costumes weren't provided for now. Those wanting wedding photos or similar would need to buy outfits from the clothing store.

The photo studio became quite popular when it opened.

Since phones and such were too expensive, most people couldn't afford them. Only a few high-level Supernatural Ability users had bought phones and could take photos with them.

Others without phones who wanted photos would go to the studio.

Although Gu Wanyin still had Crystal Cores, and they could kill zombies in the simulation training camp to exchange for more, eventually they would run out.

When that time came, they'd have to go out and kill real zombies.

Even though everyone was working hard to train their bodies now, who could guarantee they'd always be safe?

If something unfortunate happened one day... at least they could leave a photo for loved ones to remember them by. Photos from before the apocalypse were long lost - most people wouldn't have carried photos while fleeing for their lives.

However, although they had mentally prepared for the possibility of dying at the hands of zombies in the future, most people's attitudes towards life remained very positive. The hotel gave them hope - here they had food, drink, safe places to sleep, and training camps to practice in. It was incomparably better than the outside world!

After experiencing hellish days, now that they could live in such a nice hotel, how could they not live life to the fullest?

Seeing the customers laughing and chatting in the hotel every day, with more and more children in the school, Gu Wanyin felt quite pleased.

At this time, Zhuang Xiaoxia brought her more good news.

"Although we haven't found anything like an antidote, we discovered a very special substance in the fur or leaves of the mythical creatures! After discussion, we unanimously believe this substance could potentially increase human stamina or even awaken Supernatural Abilities!" Zhuang Xiaoxia said excitedly.

"Really?" Gu Wanyin said in surprise. "You're all too amazing!"

"We mainly thought of it when the mythical creatures were fighting zombies. We wondered if there might be something in the fur they shed that, while useless to them, could benefit humans! It was just a hypothesis at first, but now it's slowly being proven."

"But it surely can't be used directly, right?" Gu Wanyin said.

Surely they couldn't just eat the fur or leaves to increase stamina or awaken abilities?

"Of course not. We're still in the early stages of research. We need to continue studying, but I think we might be able to develop related potions in the future," Zhuang Xiaoxia said. "I just wanted to share this good news with you first, but please don't tell others yet. If our research doesn't pan out, we'd hate to get everyone's hopes up for nothing."

"I understand, don't worry."

"Then I'm heading back to the lab!"

As Zhuang Xiaoxia turned and ran off, Gu Wanyin felt excited too.

If they really invented a potion to awaken Supernatural Abilities and everyone could have powers, killing zombies would become easier. When that time came... she and the system could earn even more points!
