Apocalypse: Become stronger by absorbing flames at the start; my name is the Flame Emperor.

After taking a shower, Lin Yu turned on his phone and found that there was no signal or network.

"It seems the cell tower has been damaged."

I just arrived in the lobby.

"Dude, that's really unfair of you."

"Attribute fruits are so important, yet you just traded us all for a little food? Are you trying to fob us off like beggars?"

"That's right, you'd better give us back all the attribute fruits."

A crowd gathered around.

This time, each of them was carrying a number of weapons.

There were sticks, steel pipes, fire axes, and the like.

"Kid, you'd better hand over all your attribute fruits. After the country clears out the zombies, we can cover up your killings."

"A fat man with big ears, wearing a suit, said."

"Ha! You...want to die?"

Lin Yu flashed a gleam of white teeth and grinned sinisterly.

It seems that killing two people yesterday didn't scare these people.

"Big brother, please, give us back our attribute fruits, or we won't survive."

Just as Lin Yu was about to make his move, several people suddenly knelt down and cried out.

So they were just trying to intimidate me because they had more people.

Seeing that he was about to get angry, he immediately chickened out.

"I didn't force anyone to do anything yesterday. If you keep pressuring me, I won't be so polite."

"roll!"

A furious shout startled everyone.

Lin Yu ignored him, led Chen Jing'er to the door, and waved to the blond-haired man.

"Boss, what's up?" The blond-haired guy trotted over with a big smile, looking all obsequious.

"Open the door!" Lin Yu said.

"what!"

The blond-haired man was startled; there were many zombies outside.

This morning, several more birds passed by the hotel entrance, scaring them so much that they didn't dare make a sound.

"Huh? Open the door!" Lin Yu frowned.

"But...zombies!" The blond-haired man stammered, his face filled with fear.

"You know exactly how much food you have. When the food is gone, you will all die."

"Here's some friendly advice for you: while the zombies aren't too strong yet, if you bring your tools and work together, you can easily kill them. After killing the zombies, you might even become stronger."

After saying that, Lin Yu ignored everyone else.

He stared sharply at the blond-haired man: "If you don't want to go out, then guard this door. We'll be back later."

"Okay, okay," the blond-haired man said, trembling with fear.

Lin Yu's gaze seemed to kill, making his legs go weak with fear.

The blond-haired man opened the door with trembling hands, speaking very softly, afraid of attracting the zombies.

As soon as Lin Yu and his companion stepped out, he impatiently prepared to lock the door.

"Wait, we need to go out too."

The couple whom Lin Yu had rescued yesterday stepped forward with resolute eyes.

"Only when we are strong can we ensure that our original aspirations are not trampled on."

Lin Yu's words from yesterday still echoed in my ears.

Adding to what Lin Yu had just said about becoming stronger by killing zombies, the two exchanged a glance and quickly made a decision.

They also want to kill zombies and become stronger.

Both men were carrying two kitchen knives, which they had secretly taken from the hotel kitchen the day before.

Seeing the kitchen knife, the blond-haired man didn't dare to be arrogant anymore and let the two men go.

The others in the hall remained inactive.

Go kill those terrifying zombies?

Are they courting death? Let whoever wants to go, go. As long as they survive, they can wait for government aid.

No matter how powerful zombies are, can they be more powerful than bullets?

They don't believe it.

Lin Yu looked at the young couple who came out afterward with great admiration in his eyes.

As for what others were thinking, he could roughly guess.

However, what they didn't know was that all the world's high-temperature weapons were restricted by the laws of nature.

For example, artillery shells were all restricted and became duds, not to mention missiles.

Currently, only low-powered firearms such as pistols are available.

Faced with a terrifying number of zombies, the country is unable to provide assistance in the short term.

Moreover, the nuclear energy has become ineffective and has even been absorbed by the alien beasts, mutating into an even more terrifying entity.

In the mid-apocalyptic world, the threat to humanity was no longer zombies, but those terrifying mutated beasts.

In particular, the mutated beasts that have absorbed nuclear energy slaughter humans with impunity.

That was the most desperate moment for all of humanity.

The land of cherry blossoms was torn apart and sunk into the sea by the attack of a terrifying beast.

The country was completely destroyed.

"In the end times, you can't rely on anyone but yourself."

As soon as Lin Yu and his three little rascals stepped onto the street, four or five zombies spotted them and charged at them, roaring.

Lin Yu was there to level up, so he didn't hold back and smashed the steel pipe over there.

"Bang"

Its head shattered, and the zombie lurched forward two meters before collapsing.

"You three are responsible for finishing them off. After you kill them, check if there are any crystal cores inside the zombies' heads. Those are things that can increase your strength."

Lin Yu gave instructions while clearing the area.

At the same time, he led the three to a dead end.

With a series of sweeping blows, the steel pipe smashed both arms of a zombie, then he kicked it hard, deliberately sending the zombie flying towards the three of them.

"Bang!"

The zombies crashed heavily in front of the group.

Even without its arms, it still roared, got up from the ground, and charged at the three people.

The young couple's name is Liu Yu and Yang Shanshan.

Although terrified, the two gripped their kitchen knives tightly and stared intently at the charging zombies.

As for Chen Jing'er, she was already pale with fright.

She followed Lin Yu out, but she didn't bring any tools, so she could only hurriedly hide behind the two of them.

"Shanshan, I'll cut its neck, you cut its legs!"

After shouting loudly, Liu Yu took the initiative to attack, slashing with his sword.

This zombie has lost its hands, greatly reducing its danger level.

"Click"

Liu Yu was too nervous and missed his target with the cleaver, ending up cutting into the zombie's mouth and getting stuck in its teeth.

He shouted urgently, "Shanshan, hurry!"

"Okay~"

Yang Shanshan's teeth were chattering as she spoke, but she still rushed over without hesitation and started chopping with a kitchen knife.

She closed her eyes and slashed again and again, but after five or six slashes, she still hadn't severed the zombie's leg.

"Bang!"

Just then, a large iron shovel slammed heavily onto the zombie's head.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Liu Yu kicked the zombie to the ground, pulled out the kitchen knife from its mouth, and chopped it down.

"Gurgle"

The zombie's head rolled off, and blood gushed out.

"Ugh~"

Upon witnessing this scene, the three felt a nausea and nearly vomited.

However, they did not relax. They leaned back to back, panting heavily, and nervously watched their surroundings.

Seeing that the three of them worked together to successfully kill the handless zombie, Lin Yu couldn't help but nod slightly.

Chen Jing'er's performance was a bit poor at first, but later she even knew to find a large iron shovel to use as a weapon and deliver a heavy blow to the zombie, which was a great improvement.

"Bang"

Another sound of a skull cracking rang out, startling Lin Yu.

Chen Jing'er then smashed the head of the dead zombie with another shovel, revealing a white crystal core.

Pale-faced, she suppressed her nausea and used a shovel to pry out the crystal core.

She ran to Lin Yu's side with the crystal core and handed it to him as if to show off her achievement.

Lin Yu did not answer.

He looked at the three of them and said, "Just like before, the three of you work together to kill it. I will slowly send two over at the same time. As for the crystal cores, the three of you can divide them equally."
