Survival in the Apocalypse: Max Level Drop Rate with Abundant Resources

"Damn it...damn it...is that guy a human or a ghost?" Dao Ge's voice trembled.

"Brother, let's run! Jump out the window!" His younger brother was even more frightened.

"Fuck you! This damn window is impossible to open! I tried it yesterday!"

"What should we do? He'll be here soon!"

"Don't panic...don't panic..." Brother Dao took a few deep breaths, his voice becoming a little calmer. "No matter how good he is, he's still human. Let's hide behind the door, wait for him to come in, and then we'll all attack him together and hack him to death!"

"But……"

"No buts! If you don't want to die, listen to me!"

Shen Xi stood outside the door and heard their conversation clearly.

Wooden doors are not soundproof at all.

A cruel smile curled at the corner of his mouth.

Then, lift your foot.

"Bang……!"

He kicked the door hard!

The door shook violently, but it didn't open.

"Hmm? These two aren't stupid!"

The two brothers, Dao and his brother, held it up inside with something.

"Bang……!"

The second kick!

The door frame groaned under its own weight, and through the crack in the door, one could see a wooden bed propped up against it.

"Bang……!"

The third kick!

Shen Xi kicked again, with a force of 22, which they couldn't withstand at all, and the wooden bed was kicked open!

Shen Xi, carrying an axe, stepped inside.

Inside the room, Brother Dao and his brother were hiding on either side of the door, holding machetes and steel pipes, waiting for him to come in so they could ambush him.

"Two idiots!"

But Shen Xi didn't give them a chance to launch a sneak attack.

The first thing he did upon entering was not to walk forward, but to swing an axe to the left!

"ah……!"

Dao Ge's scream rang out.

His wrist, which was holding the machete, was severed cleanly by the axe blade, and his hand flew out along with the machete, blood gushing out instantly!

"elder brother……!"

His younger brother screamed in terror, gripping the steel pipe as he rushed forward to fight Shen Xi.

Shen Xi turned to the side, the steel pipe grazed his shoulder, and he missed.

The next second, Shen Xi raised her left arm, and the rotting corpse's claws firmly gripped the man's face, the five fingers digging deep into the flesh, pressing him against the wall!

"Let...let go..." The man's voice was squeezed out from between his fingers, muffled but clear to Shen Xi, filled with fear.

Shen Xi ignored him.

He turned his head and looked at Brother Dao, who was kneeling on the ground, clutching his severed wrist and wailing.

"Weren't you being pretty arrogant just now?"

Knife Brother, his face covered in cold sweat from the pain, gritted his teeth and roared, "Tai Chu! You...you dare to kill me? Do you know who I am?"

Shen Xi raised an eyebrow: "Oh? Who are you?"

"I'm a member of the Gu family!" Brother Dao roared. "You killed Young Master Gu, and Old Master Gu won't let you get away with it! If you kill me too, the Gu family will make sure you die a horrible death!"

Shen Xi was silent for a moment.

Then he laughed.

The laughter sent chills down Dao Ge's spine.

"Family-oriented?"

Shen Xi used the axe blade to lift Dao Ge's chin, her calm eyes revealing a chilling killing intent: "Since you know I killed Gu Yungui, aren't you curious why I dared to kill him?"

Dao Ge's pupils contracted sharply, and the fear of death made him tremble uncontrollably.

"The Gu family doesn't need to come looking for me. I'll pay them a visit first when I get out," Shen Xi said softly. "So, your so-called status is nothing to me."

"Go and let Gu Yungui know you're safe!"

Shen Xi stopped talking and slashed with the axe blade.

Dao Ge's throat was cut open, and blood spurted onto the ceiling.

His body twitched a few times, then fell silent.

His younger brother witnessed this scene and was so terrified that he urinated down his trouser leg.

"No...don't kill me..." He shook his head desperately, tears and snot streaming down his face. "I didn't do anything! It was all my brother's idea! He was the one who wanted to take you! It has nothing to do with me!"

Shen Xi looked at him.

A moment of silence.

Then he released the claws that were gripping his face.

The man's legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

Shen Xi turned around and walked towards the door.

A sigh of relief came from behind.

To be alive is truly...

next second.

The axe blade slices through the air.

"Click."

The head rolled off.

Before he could even savor the joy of surviving a calamity, he was beheaded by Shen Xi.

Shen Xi didn't even turn her head: "If you don't cut the weeds at the root, they'll grow back in the spring breeze. I won't make that mistake again."

Two bodies lay in pools of blood.

Shen Xi flicked the blood off the axe blade and glanced at room 409.

Several cardboard boxes were piled up in the corner, filled with supplies—bottle water, compressed biscuits, bread, and a few sheets of paper and pens.

It seems these brothers have robbed quite a few people.

He unceremoniously put all the supplies into the storage space.

[6 bottles of mineral water, 8 compressed biscuits, 5 loaves of bread, 4 pieces of beef jerky...]

not bad.

Shen Xi didn't linger. He turned and left 409, stopping at the door.

At both ends of the corridor, several doors quietly opened a crack, revealing terrified eyes peeking out.

Shen Xi glanced at them.

Upon seeing Shen Xi, the men with the glasses immediately shrank back, and the door slammed shut.

He didn't pay attention.

Back in room 444, I locked the door behind me.

The three corpses were still lying on the ground, the stench of blood was overwhelming.

Shen Xi frowned and threw their bodies out.

Then I sat on the bed and opened the properties panel.

[Mission: Survive in the Corpse Dormitory for 5 days (1/5)]

Level 4.

The 25 points of free attribute haven't been added yet.

Shen Xi pondered for a moment, but still did not move.

Changing jobs is not something to be taken lightly.

He turned off the panel and opened the regional channel.

[Regional Channel - Corpse Dormitory] (Currently Online: 41/100)

"Holy crap! Did you guys hear? Those two brothers in 409 got slaughtered by Tai Chu!"

"I saw it with my own eyes! I live in 410, and I could hear the screams even through the wall!"

"The Primordial Boss is too ruthless! Killing people is like killing chickens..."

"Ruthless? Those two brothers deserved it! They even stole half a bag of cookies from me yesterday!"

"Exactly! That Brother Dao should have died a long time ago!"

"The Primordial Boss is awesome!"

"Does the Primordial Boss accept followers? I'm strong and can take on any challenge!"

"Aww, Brother Taichu is so handsome, I want to have your babies!"

"Shut up, 308!"

……

Shen Xi glanced at it but did not reply.

There are only 41 people left. This is only the first day, and the rate of attrition is too fast. In my previous life, more than 70 people survived on the first day.

So many people have died in this life; it seems the situation is different now.

He turned off the channel, took out the paper and pen he had revealed earlier, and began to plan his future path.

In this post-apocalyptic survival game, the job classifications were very simple in my previous life.

Common classes include warriors, mages, and archers.

Once a player reaches level 10, they must complete a job change quest in order to continue leveling up.

Therefore, those free attribute points are very important before changing jobs.

But these are all ordinary professions; there are also some hidden professions.

These hidden professions are few in number, and the differences between different hidden professions are quite large.

Shen Xi's plan for herself is to pursue those top-tier hidden professions.

The first thing he wrote on the paper was "Blood Frenzy".

This was his profession in his previous life.

Blood Berserker is a top-tier hidden warrior class, boasting extremely high single-target damage output with maxed-out physique and strength.

This profession was also what enabled him to survive for ten years in his previous life.

He was very familiar with the Blood Berserker's specialization, and it was his first choice in this life.

Then, Shen Xi wrote down several hidden professions. After filling a page, Shen Xi tore the paper to shreds.

He decided to continue down the Blood Berserker path after reaching level 10.

After doing all this, he leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.

Daytime is relatively safe.

But I killed too many rotting corpses last night, and my physical strength was greatly depleted. I need to rest well.

The sky outside the window was already bright.

Sunlight streamed in through the fogged glass.

Shen Xi's breathing gradually became steady.

He fell asleep.

……

I slept until 5 p.m.

When Shen Xi woke up, she felt full of energy and her strength had almost recovered.

He moved his shoulders, and his bones made a slight popping sound.

As far as I can remember, there haven't been any zombie hordes since the first and fifth nights, so these past few days have been relatively safe.

In this life...

Shen Xi picked up the fire axe, put on the corpse claws, and opened the door.

The daytime is not over yet.

He still has time to farm another wave of corpses.

and……

His gaze fell on the direction of the first floor.

It's time to go and meet the elite rotting corpses in that duty room.

Level 4.

With two skills and two pieces of bronze equipment, it should be able to put up a fight.

Shen Xi took a deep breath and walked towards the stairwell.

The corridor was empty.

When he passed 432, he heard hushed conversations coming from inside.

"Taichu has gone out..."

"Ignore him, don't provoke him..."

"That's a killing machine..."

Shen Xi's lips curled slightly.

God of Slaughter?

He liked this title.

Heading downwards.

Second floor, first floor.

The closer you get to the first floor, the stronger the smell of blood becomes.

Last night's zombie horde surged up from the basement; the first floor was the worst affected area.

Shen Xi stood at the top of the stairs on the first floor, her gaze sweeping across the corridor.

The ground was covered with corpses and remains, a bloody mess, making it almost impossible to step on.

Several rotting corpses were gnawing on the body when they heard the noise and all raised their heads.

His cloudy eyes locked onto Shen Xi.

"roar……!"

Five rotting corpses pounced at once!

Shen Xi did not back down.

Whirlwind Slash, activate!

His body spun around, the fire axe drawing a deadly arc in the air!

"Puff puff puff puff puff!"

Five heads flew off almost simultaneously!

Black blood spurted out!

The five corpses collapsed to the ground with a thud.

Kill 5 level 1 rotting corpses, experience points +25.

Five orbs of light rose up.

Shen Xi casually scooped it up.

[Mineral water x2, compressed biscuits x2, shredded pork with garlic sauce x1]

He didn't even look at it before putting it directly into his storage space.

Then continue forward.

At the end of the corridor, the rusty iron gate drew ever closer.

Duty room.

Shen Xi stopped in front of the door and took a deep breath.

Grasp the doorknob and turn it slowly.

"Squeak..."

The iron gate opened.

A stench ten times stronger than the outside wafted towards us.

Shen Xi suppressed the urge to vomit and squinted at the room.

In the dimly lit duty room, a huge figure was crouching on the ground with its back to him, tearing at something.

Hearing the door open, the figure slowly turned around.

A pair of scarlet eyes shone in the darkness.

Shen Xi's pupils suddenly contracted.

This isn't some elite rotting corpse.

This is……

[Corpse Leader (Level 4)]
