Mission Completed, Reward Obtained!

"Ding."

"Congratulations, host, mission completed."

"Your mission (kill 100 zombies) has been successfully completed. Reward obtained: one out of three."

"One: a box of compressed biscuits."

"Two: an exquisite tang knife."

"Three: death-exemption token."

When Thomson woke up again, the sky was dark, and the entire room was silent. Only the system notifications kept echoing in his mind.

He rubbed his head and found himself lying on the sofa, covered with a blanket.

Under the moonlight, he looked down and saw Nina leaning against his feet and sleeping.

Thomson did not care about the system reward for the time being. Instead, he looked at the door warily.

There were two zombie corpses there and the door was blocked by furniture.

As expected, all of this was Nina's work.

It was difficult to imagine how she could deal with these two ferocious zombies with her delicate body.

Moreover, she had to move the furniture that was several times heavier than her.

It seemed that Nina was not the kind of vase who only sought protection. It could also be explained judging from her battle record of killing more than ten zombies alone.

It was safe for the time being.

Thomson sat up and covered her with a blanket, intending to find something to eat first.

However, he had woken Nina up. The latter smiled sweetly at him and asked, "Are you hungry? I'll go make you something to eat."

While speaking, she stood up and walked to the side of the house.

Soon, a fragrance was emitted.

Not long after, Nina came out with a plate and sat next to Thomson, handing it to him.

"This is all I found here. A lot of things have been taken away."

It was a plate of spaghetti.

The rich aroma hit Thomson's nostrils, making him feel like he had not had a proper meal for a long time.

While he was eating, he suddenly heard a roar from outside.

"Bang!"

The door was about to be knocked open. The force was so strong that the door frame shook as if it would be knocked open at any moment.

Nina's face changed as she realized that she had done something wrong.

Although the zombies' vision had deteriorated, their sense of smell and sound had been greatly improved.

Cooking was undoubtedly a very dangerous and extravagant activity during this time.

Fortunately, Nina had already closed all the windows, so there was a high chance that the zombies upstairs would not notice her.

Thomson had the clairvoyance ability. Although he could not see through it, he was keenly aware of it and planned to get rid of this annoying thing.

"Where's my knife?"

"I'm sorry..."

Nina lowered her head and apologized in a weak voice, "When you fainted, the three zombies outside the door chased after you. I used the knife to deal with them, but it was stuck in the head of a zombie. Then, another zombie came, so I had to close the door first..."

After saying that, Thomson's expression did not change much. He continued to eat his noodles while checking the reward given by the system.

The first choice was a box of compressed biscuits.

For them, who were currently short of food, it was indeed a good choice.

However, their current goal was the 27th floor.

Seeing this, Nina felt even more guilty.

She was very clear about the predicament they were facing now.

Thomson's food would be eaten up in a short time according to normal consumption.

At that time, they would have to face the zombies outside the door.

However, could Thomson, who had lost his weapon, face the ferocious zombies?

Perhaps, it was not difficult to kill a zombie.

The difficult part was that he would not be touched by the zombies in close combat.

After all, even a small wound caused by a zombie would infect a normal person.

The scariest thing was not their savagery, but the virus they carried.

Nina had already searched the room, but there was no suitable weapon.

In other words, they were trapped in this room.

Unless someone was willing to risk his life to fight against a zombie!

A resolute look flashed across Nina's eyes. She put her arms around Thomson's neck, hugged him, and kissed him with her eyes closed.

Thomson subconsciously avoided her, looking puzzled.

"Nina, what are you doing?"

"Thomson, take me."

"Huh?" Thomson could not figure out what Nina was thinking at all.

Nina's face was full of seriousness. She said gently, "If one of us has to die, I choose me."

Thomson pushed her away, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Who told you that one of us has to die?"

Nina was stunned.

After eating his fill, Thomson handed the remaining one-third of the pasta to Nina. "Eat something. It's easier to do things after you're full."

Nina's pretty face turned red. She could not help but think wrongly. She took the pasta shyly and did not mind that it was Thomson's leftover. She ate it one bite at a time.

Thomson saw that Nina's loyalty had unknowingly reached 90 points. He felt inexplicable, but he did not think too much about it.

He walked to the door and moved the furniture away. Then, he waved at Nina, who had finished her noodles.

"Nina, come here. I'll perform a magic trick for you."

Nina walked closer curiously.

Thomson's eyes lit up.

Time stopped!

He used his superpower and opened the door. He saw the zombie who was about to hit him with his head. He also saw the zombie who had a tang knife stuck in his head.

He easily grabbed the knife and cut the other zombie into eight pieces.

Then, Thomson withdrew his power.

In Nina's view, the scene in front of her suddenly changed as if the timeline had jumped.

She covered her mouth, her eyes full of surprise.

"My god, how did you do it?"

Facing Nina, whose loyalty had reached 90 points, Thomson did not plan to hide it.

"It's very simple. As long as you can control time, you can do it."

Very simple?

'As long as you can control time, you can do it?'

Hearing Thomson's explanation, Nina did not know how to describe the tumultuous thoughts in her heart.

Controlling time, was this still something that a person could do?

This was something that only God could do!

"What, you don't believe me?"

Thomson raised his eyebrows and snapped his fingers. Then, he activated his superpower again.

After a few seconds, Nina recovered. There were some strange sensations coming from all over her body as if someone had played with her.

Thomson laughed strangely. "You're not wearing any underwear?"

Nina: "..."
