Chapter 20: Are Zombies Really Humans?

The rules of the game "Escape from the Apocalypse" are as follows: Within three hours, each player, initially blindfolded, is transported to different locations within the apocalyptic city and equipped with the same limited weapons.

Players can only acquire more equipment by attacking each other and unlocking levels. The purpose of obtaining equipment is to protect oneself, kill the occasional zombies, and eliminate other players.

Since only one person can ultimately survive, the winning player must kill the remaining survivors.

Players who die in the game, whether killed by others or bitten by zombies, are immediately confined to a dark room, waiting for someone to win or the game to end after three hours.

Each person can act individually, and teaming up is not recommended because no one knows if their teammate might suddenly kill them and take their equipment.

Apart from these rules, there are no other hints. The seventeen players are assigned numbers, and they are ready to enter the apocalyptic city.

Lin Churan and Ji Ziwei silently memorized Tan Yinyin's number, which is 11.

Tan Yinyin herself doesn't mind much, considering it just a game. Even if she loses, it doesn't matter much to her. After all, among the seventeen people, at least sixteen have to lose.

As long as her cat-person baby is not scared, that's all that matters.

Then, all seventeen people had their eyes covered with blindfolds and were taken to different rooms, with only Danny being the one not blindfolded throughout.

The interior of the apocalyptic city is a three-story building with meticulously arranged scenes, looking extremely dilapidated. There are even simulated skeletons on the ground, as if it were a real building that had experienced a zombie attack.

All bright lights around are blocked by black curtains, with only a few places having faint light sources, emitting an eerie red glow.

In the dim environment, some people disguised as zombies are hidden.

Cats have better vision than humans, especially cat people like Danny, whose vision is even more superior.

Therefore, as the staff led Tan Yinyin, Danny had already seen the surrounding terrain, mechanisms, and zombies clearly.

Tan Yinyin was taken to a room on the first floor. After everyone was taken to different rooms, a male voice came over the broadcast.

"The game begins. Players, please remove your blindfolds, put on your equipment. It's now the first level - the key to Room 305."

Tan Yinyin removed her blindfold and saw a dimly lit room with only a table. On the table lay a realistic submachine gun and a set of black clothes.

She put on the black clothes, and when she looked down, she saw her little cat poking the realistic submachine gun with its soft paws, showing a playful demeanor.

"If you like it, Blue, when we get back, I can buy you one," Tan Yinyin said affectionately, patting his head.

She thought Blue was indeed a little baby, unexpectedly enjoying playing with toy guns.

At that moment, her phone rang, and Tan Yinyin saw a message from Ji Ziwei.

He said, "Yinyin, as a delicate girl holding a kitten, it's inconvenient to use a gun. Let's team up. Tell me where you are, and I'll come to protect you. If we survive until the end, I'll let you win."

While sending this message, Ji Ziwei on the other side was excited, anticipating the moment of playing the hero to save the beauty.

After thinking for a moment, Tan Yinyin felt he had a point. Even if he was lying to her to take her equipment, she didn't mind. So, she agreed.

Looking at the doorplate with the number 108 under the dim light, she messaged Ji Ziwei, saying, "I'm in Room 108. Thank you!"

Ji Ziwei, checking his doorplate number, which was 110, thought they were surprisingly close. It seemed like fate brought them together!

Immediately, he took action, went out, and knocked on the door of Room 108.

Tan Yinyin opened the door first, then went in to retrieve her equipment and Danny.

Holding the submachine gun in one hand and carrying Danny in the other, she straightforwardly said to Ji Ziwei, "The first level is to find the key to Room 305. Let's go to Room 305 now."

Ji Ziwei thought, "Perfect!"

He secretly messaged Fang Chuan, saying, "Yinyin and I are heading to Room 305. Quickly ambush on the way. Once it's done, I'll give you ten in-game skins. You can choose them yourself."

Fang Chuan, upon receiving the message, looked at his phone screen and laughed foolishly for a while. Ten in-game skins! Ji Ziwei is really rich!

However, after Danny came out of Room 108, he suddenly felt the suppressed power within him fluctuating...

Among the "people" playing zombies, one "person" had eyes that emitted a faint red glow in the darkness. In that instant, they stared intently at Danny.

Lin Churan and her three sisters gathered in Room 203, where she shared the idea of teasing the annoying step-sister Tan Yinyin.

One of the girls, appearing gentle and friendly with an elegant demeanor, named Qin Zhixuan, shook her head at Lin Churan. She wore a friendly smile and said, "Churan, this isn't exciting enough. Let's play something more thrilling."
