Chapter 100
“Let’s wait for them to come back and ask. Hehe, who would have thought we’d get such a good opportunity!”
The other guests in the hotel had also heard that the supernatural beings might have gone to fight zombies, so they all rushed to the hotel entrance to wait.
Once they found out where the supernatural beings had just fought the zombies, they quickly ran over to collect Crystal Cores!
After a while, several figures floated over.
Yes, they literally floated.
As the figures got closer, they finally touched down and started walking.
Sure enough, it was Nine-Tails, Tree Spirit, Eagle Ze, and Cat Er.
They all looked normal, except for Eagle Ze, who was carrying a large box.
“What are you all doing?” Nine-Tails smiled, her nine fox tails swaying behind her, “Having a team-building exercise at the hotel entrance?”
Her enchanting smile made quite a few people blush.
“We… we were waiting for you,” a young man stammered.
“Then it seems you know what we just went to do,” said Tree Spirit.
“With such a big commotion, it would have been hard for them not to notice,” Moon Eagle said.
At this moment, Gu Wanyin also walked out and asked, “Did you really go fight zombies?”
“Yes!” Moon Eagle said, putting the big box on the ground, “We even brought a box specifically to bring back the Crystal Cores!”
As he spoke, he opened the box.
It was filled to the brim with Crystal Cores!
Most were level one, but there were also quite a few level twos, threes, fours, and even some level fives!
Everyone’s eyes lit up at the sight!
Crystal Cores, these were all Crystal Cores!
“Although we can’t use Crystal Cores ourselves, we heard that you humans use them to exchange for points, so we brought them back,” Nine-Tails said. “It was Cat Er who reminded us to do so.”
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately looked at Cat Er gratefully, making the usually expressionless Cat Er blush.
“However, now we have a problem,” Tree Spirit said. “With so many Crystal Cores and so many people in the hotel, how should we distribute them?”
Nine-Tails looked at Gu Wanyin and asked, “Wanyin, what do you think?”
Gu Wanyin rubbed her chin, deep in thought.
Indeed, distributing so many Crystal Cores to the hotel guests would make their lives easier for a while, and she could earn more points too.
But the supernatural beings couldn’t possibly have eliminated all the zombies.
The points would eventually run out.
If they distributed the Crystal Cores directly now, wouldn’t it foster a mentality of getting something for nothing?
If their attitudes changed, would they still make an effort to go out and fight zombies or look for valuable items?
No matter what, with this hotel, humans had hope for survival.
They couldn’t let people become complacent just because the supernatural beings suddenly took an interest in fighting zombies once. Wouldn’t that mean pinning all their hopes on the supernatural beings? What if they didn’t go fight next time?
“How about this,” Gu Wanyin spoke up. “Those who want Crystal Cores should go to the zombie-killing simulation training camp. In the camp, you can freely set the level of zombies. Kill one level-one zombie, and you can claim one level-one Crystal Core from me. Kill a level-two, and you get a level-two Crystal Core, and so on, until all the Crystal Cores are claimed.”
The system recorded the guests’ performance in the zombie-killing training camp, so there was no way to deceive her.
“To ensure fairness, before all the Crystal Cores are claimed, each person can only spend a maximum of two hours per day in the training camp, to prevent others from not having a chance to enter.”
When people heard they couldn’t claim the cores directly, they were inevitably a bit disappointed.
But then they realized that when they usually went out to kill zombies for Crystal Cores, there was a risk of losing their lives!
But in the zombie-killing simulation training camp, no matter how painful or tiring it was, at least there was no danger!
As long as they gritted their teeth and killed the simulated zombies with all their might, they could get Crystal Cores!
Wasn’t this much better than going out to kill real zombies? At least they didn’t have to worry about dying! They also didn’t have to worry about getting injured or sick; after the simulation ended, all wounds would immediately disappear!
“What are we waiting for? Let’s go to the training camp!”
“I remember there are multi-player training rooms, right? Let’s team up, maybe we can kill more and then split the Crystal Cores!”
“Alright, let’s go!”
People rushed towards the training camp.
Tree Spirit smiled at Gu Wanyin, “Your idea is not bad. It won’t let them develop a mentality of getting something for nothing, and it will also allow them to exercise more. In future battles with zombies, they’ll have a better chance of winning.”
“Anyway, thank you all,” Gu Wanyin said. “For killing so many zombies for the people.”
This must have significantly reduced the number of zombies in City A.
It might also mean more new guests coming to the hotel.
“No need to thank us. We didn’t kill zombies for humans, it was just for a bet,” Cat Er said coolly.
“A bet?” Gu Wanyin was curious.
So Tree Spirit told Gu Wanyin about their bet.
“So who won in the end? Who killed the most?” Gu Wanyin became even more curious.
Nine-Tails let out a coquettish laugh and said, “Some supernatural beings proposed this bet thinking they could turn the tables, but in the end, they killed the least.”
Gu Wanyin immediately understood.
She looked sympathetically at Moon Eagle, whose face had turned red.
“How was I supposed to know they would use their full strength?” Moon Eagle said angrily. “I thought we were just playing around, who knew they would take it so seriously!”
“Are you joking?” Cat Er glanced at him. “None of us used our full strength.”
Gu Wanyin remembered the earlier scene.
So they hadn’t even used their full strength…
…
A few days later, Ling Quan from the survival base contacted Gu Wanyin.
They had used these few days to compile a list of all the supplies they wanted.
Although the survival base was large in scale with many people, it was also very well-managed.
The base was divided into many areas, each with several small leaders responsible for tallying what supplies each person wanted, collecting Crystal Cores, then submitting them up the chain of command. Finally, the compiled list ended up in Ling Quan’s hands.
“Miss Ling, write all the supplies you need on a piece of paper, then stick it to the screen. I’ll be able to receive it on this side,” Gu Wanyin said.
“Alright.”
After Ling Quan finished writing, she stuck the paper to the screen.
Then, she watched as the paper gradually disappeared.
And then, the paper actually appeared in Gu Wanyin’s hand on the other side of the screen!
But thinking about it… if they could create an interdimensional storage space and instantly send over needed supplies, what couldn’t the Peace Hotel accomplish?
Gu Wanyin was looking down at the paper filled with writing.
On it was listed the supplies needed by the survival base, and the quantities…
