Apocalyptic Reincarnation: Start with a 30-million Bonus

The person who escaped from the duty room was shouting as he went upstairs,

but on the eleventh floor, a few people were playing mahjong.

Initially, they vaguely heard the sound of the alarm downstairs and didn’t mind it much, planning to go down and check later,

while Ma Lian, sitting in the center, was holding a cigarette and about to win the game.

But at this moment, as the duty room staff continued calling out while climbing the stairs,

the sound grew louder and Ma Lian finally realized something was wrong and couldn’t sit still.

In just a few steps, he ran to the stairwell of the eleventh floor and saw the duty room staff climbing up, panting heavily and not daring to stop.

Ma Lian was just about to scold the duty room staff, wondering what all the fuss was about.

But then, he heard a cry from behind: ”Brother Ma, the zombies are all downstairs, sheesh, so freakin’ many!”

Ma Lian immediately turned around and looked towards the stairs,

only to see the duty room staff who had slowed down due to exhaustion from climbing,

but with just a slight turn of his head, he saw a mass of zombies closely following right behind the staff!

Bang!

Ma Lian made a split-second decision and immediately closed the door to the eleventh floor.

As the saying goes, better him than me.

Seeing this, the duty room staff pushed on the door of the eleventh floor but couldn’t budge it, feeling a bit of despair before finally giving up on pushing.

Looking up at the stairs above, he decided to continue climbing, but now, he dared not shout loudly.

What if people above also closed the door because of the zombies following?

On the twelfth floor, there were also more than a dozen people idly doing their own thing.

Thud thud thud, the duty room staff struggled up ten more flights of stairs, gasping for breath as he eyed the door to the twelfth floor—it wasn’t far now, just four more steps.

At that moment!

A man who had gotten up to go to the toilet happened to see the duty room staff on the stairs, and also noticed the horde of zombies behind him.

”Zombies are coming!!!” the man ready to use the restroom shouted loudly.

Everyone was immediately startled and gathered at the door.

And at that moment, the restroom-bound man closed the door to the twelfth floor!

He saw the plea in the duty room staff’s eyes, but the zombies were just too close!

Bang!

The twelfth-floor door was also shut.

The duty room staff burnt with rage inside, thinking to himself: if they’re unwilling to open the door to save me, I won’t let things go well for them either!

He had always been one of the lower-status individuals in this group, so all the dirty and tiring work had fallen on him.

He knew that the rooftop terrace was where they carried out their misdeeds, and anger surged within him.

So he continued running up the stairs, heading straight for the rooftop.

What he hadn’t expected was that these people had the guts to do such things under the broad daylight.

But now they even shut the doors.

At this moment, he was on the verge of tears.

If only he had known, he would have just entered at some level downstairs; if only he had known, he wouldn’t have alerted them about the zombies; if only he had known, he wouldn’t be with these people...

But zombies don’t care for your hindsight.

The zombies swarmed in, and the duty room staff closed his eyes in despair.

Crunch crunch...

The duty room staff was pounced on by the zombies and torn apart to be devoured.

The alarm downstairs was silent now, whether because of the zombies’ destruction or because Yang Tianlong had thrown something and damaged its parts.

Suddenly,

beep...

The siren that Li Yu and the others had just heard suddenly rang out again, its sound immense, as if the whole city could hear it.

At the Lotus Mall, the zombies were growling at the entrance but couldn’t push through.

With the siren’s sound resuming, the zombies were attracted by the louder noise and aimlessly moved downstairs toward its source.

Watching these zombies surge into the Lotus Mall, then recede like a tide,

Li Yu and the others hiding in the narrow path behind the Lotus Mall felt extremely frustrated.

Right there, on this hidden path, Li Yu and his companions had clearly seen the zombies enter the building, and now they watched as the zombies gradually streamed out.

Felt like I just got fucked by a dog...

What the hell, what are the odds?

Li Yu glanced in the direction of the honking, a cold light flashing in his eyes.

”Brother Yu, what do we do now?” Li Tie asked.

Li Yu watched as the zombies continued to swarm toward the source of the honking. After pondering for a moment, he said, ”Wait, once the zombies have left, we’ll deal with those bastards!”

Twenty minutes later, the zombies had gradually all departed.

Li Yu and his group drove their car to the base of the Lotus Mall, where they saw the loudspeaker that had been trampled by the zombies.

”Let’s move, time to clear the trouble!” Li Yu charged ahead, gun in hand and knife slung on his back.

The other four followed closely behind.

Suddenly, Li Yu seemed to remember something and looked back, ”As for those people, no survivors!”

The four nodded.

Upstairs!

Searching floor by floor.

But not a single person was seen; a few zombies were encountered but were dispatched one after another.

Finally, when they reached the 11th floor, they saw the doors were shut.

Recalling their ascent, the doors on the other floors were open except for those on the 11th floor.

They exchanged glances, having a rough idea in their minds.

The door was wooden but secured firmly. Li Yu didn’t hesitate to open fire, blasting through it, followed by two screams from behind it.

Looking at the wooden door now riddled with bullets, its once sturdy frame now seemed no more than papier-mâché.

He kicked it down.

The door gave way!

Li Yu and the others entered, spotting Ma Lian and his panic-stricken group.

So they asked, ”Anyone else here? Where’s your boss?”

Ma Lian, seeing the guns in their hands, fearfully said, ”Brother Sheng is on the rooftop... the rooftop...”

With the information they needed, Li Yu fired his gun, and several bodies collapsed into pools of blood.

Upstairs.

The people on the 12th floor had seen the zombies leave, but were suddenly startled by the sound of gunfire, unclear about what was happening.

To figure out exactly what was going on, one of them inched toward the door to peek through a small crack.

Looking down the corridor, he saw no more zombies and felt a fleeting sense of relief after a close call.

But at that moment, the door was suddenly pushed open.

He looked up to find Li Yu’s almost smiling face.

Startled, he stumbled backwards.

Li Yu took the opportunity to push the door fully open.

Glancing inside, the other four also rushed in.

At this moment, the group on the rooftop finally seemed to snap back to reality as several shirtless men came down.

One of them, with a tattoo of a poisonous snake on his chest and wearing glasses, loudly yelled, ”What the hell are you screaming for? You’re ruining my good time!”

He was about to step into the room when he suddenly saw Li Yu and the others inside.

Especially taking notice of the guns in their hands.

The bespectacled man halted, attempting to retreat.

Seeing this, Li Yu asked, ”You’re Brother Sheng, right?”

Sweat instantly beaded on the forehead of the man with glasses, and with an awkward smile, he spoke in a pleasing tone, ”Brother, brother, just call me Little Sheng, my name is Zhou Sheng, you can call me Little Zhou too, ha. What’s all this with guns, brothers? It’s kinda scaring me. Haha.”

Li Yu saw that there were a few more people standing behind Brother Sheng, nodded toward the corridor with his chin, and exchanged a knowing look with Li Tie and Li Gang.

The two understood and headed straight for the corridor. One positioned himself at the corridor entrance, the other at the doorway, blocking any chance of escape.

At this time, Li Yu looked toward where the men had come from above, thinking there were probably more people on the rooftop.

So he pointed his gun at the newly arrived group, forcing them to stand with those on the 12th floor.

Then he and Zhang Tianlong went upstairs to check out the rooftop.

Li Yu’s face showed little emotion; he had seen too many similarly heartless acts in his past life.

Yang Tianlong’s expression was grim, his eyes revealing a brutal intention as he muttered, ”Yu, you’re right, these people deserve to die.”

Each word was filled with murderous intent.
