After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World

[Congratulations, Terran survivor #99598, for activating the Universe Assistance System!] Althea, along with the remaining 1% of the population of their home planet, stared at the holographic screen in front of them in confusion. Their galaxy was apparently ending, and suddenly announcements from an alien system appeared in their heads, telling them they would be permanently transferred to another world. The survivors were all very depressed. First, they were forced to survive in a zombie apocalypse, and now they had to survive a new world altogether? It just so happened that Althea was one of the few people who got the Lord Token, the ticket to controlling a territory---a supposed safe haven for her people. Althea looked at her very large stomach and sighed at an unknown future. Would she be able to build a good home for her children and fellowmen? And... would she and her husband find each other again after this disaster? #Apocalypse, #Josei, #Romance, #BeautifulFL, #HandsomeML, #PowerCouple, #Infrastructure, #MagicSpace, #KingdomBuilding, #Adventure, #Pregnancy, #Game Elements, #System #LitRPG ____ Now an E-BOOK~!

Exploring the Neighborhood - Part 2

After recovering some of her wits, Althea looked at her status bar and saw a full 20 points of spirit were deducted.

However, she dared not rest for too long and she began to peruse around the luxurious living room after a couple minutes of breather.

If the outside details were showy, the house's interiors were just gaudy.

There was a mishmash of expensive displays and antiques. The upholstery had patterns and even the cornices had intricate designs. It was visually exhausting.

It was like the owner was a peacock.

Maybe he was.

Anyway, she immediately held the items in an attempt to sell them. She was surprised to find that, basically, every display had value.

[+2 gold]

[+4 gold]

[+23 silver]

[+12 silver]

[+3 gold]

Elated, she happily continued exploring the rooms of the house, killing a few more servant zombies along the way. She earned quite a bit of money from the first floor alone.

As she walked, her eyes were attracted to a wall-mounted rack not too far away, and her green eyes brightened.

"A golf club set!" She uttered, her strides taking her in front of it. It was a complete set, made of cutting-edge materials like a titanium head.

She looked at it in excitement and determined the best weapon would be the golf driver or the Wood-1, which remained in her hand while she kept the rest inside her space.

She then went to the kitchen and took all bottled water and food with a long shelf life.

Satisfied, Althea went to the next floor and ended up in the mistress's… er... sister-in-law's room.

She knew whose room it was because this woman loved pink to the point that it was pathological.

Every time she ambled and jogged around the neighborhood, anyone could see her figure by virtue of her bright-colored clothes alone.

Anyway, after shuffling through the woman's items, she found the jewelry and exchanged it for a few hundred silver.

Althea then went to the master's bedroom and took in a few high-quality coats and leather attires for men and women.

She found all the valuables, watches, and the like and got hundreds of silver and dozens of gold coins in exchange.

It took her a while to find the safety deposit box though. After a lot of effort, she eventually found it in the study, under the carpet floor.

She didn't bother to open it and exchanged it directly, surprised to find that her balance increased by scores of gold coins.

Politicians were really rich. In hard currency, too.

She exited the house to the east wall and repeated the old trick. It was just that the garden of this neighbor was full of rockery, so she didn't dare jump down carelessly.

She did the same thing with this one and proceeded to a few more abodes.

After four more houses, she had already gained quite a bit.

She thanked the heavens that she had the foundation for self-defense. Since her husband learned, she and Ansel learned too.

Especially when he became a soldier, in which case their repertoire of fighting knowledge expanded tremendously in turn.

How many stalkers she handled with the techniques she learned, she didn't even know.

What surprised her the most was the lack of animals though, at first she was fully prepared for encountering zombie pets because of the trouble the mutts caused her.

But… after so many houses, she had yet to encounter another one.

Then she saw the untransformed body of the guard dogs, and then rats, and cats.

She realized that whatever it was that affected people's genes and turned them into zombies, it was too much for most animals.

She felt sad for the animals, but at least they didn't have to suffer through this hell. 

She shook her head of the thoughts. She had no time to feel sorry for others right now. 

With that thought, she continued her 'trip' after another short break.

Using her 'armor' bug, she breezed through a full seven more houses and finally checked on her status during a short break.

Her biggest gain though was the baby products. Although it was only an opened can of powdered milk and diapers, it reminded her that she needed to stock up on these as well. 

Sigh, she almost forgot her babies' food. 

Another thing she learned was about the survival rates of human beings. 

In all of the houses, there were no other survivors. At all.

This survival rate was not even 5%...

She felt heavy at this realization. Her husband, wherever he was, did they have to go through this as well? 

What about her friends? What about her brother? Did he turn to one of these things? If he didn't, he was probably surrounded by them now, right?

Alas… he was hundreds of kilometers away from her. She could not do anything about it with her current abilities. Worrying would be for naught and wouldn't help him at all.

In the end, she decided to just prepare as much as she could, and maybe they would meet in that Other World and she could support them.

It was just that as smooth as she had gone through the first part of the neighborhood, she encountered quite a bit of a challenge in the next house.
