Even without cheats, we must survive the apocalypse

At this time, the duel on the ring still did not have a miracle. Although the man tried desperately to dodge, the zombie still seized the opportunity and bit the man's neck. The blood in the artery spurted out instantly. The man let out a desperate scream and was immediately crushed under the zombie. The blood spread along the ring and dripped from the edge of the ring to the ground bit by bit. The man's limbs twitched for a while, and soon he stopped moving.

There was a round of boos from the audience. No one cared about the man's painful and miserable death. All they cared about was whether they won or lost.

"If this is what you call interesting, then forget it." Chu Xiao said. He felt uncomfortable every time he stayed in this damn place for a minute. "I'm really tired of this kind of thing."

"Oh," Dr. Heidi covered her mouth in surprise, "I almost forgot that you are a 'warrior' who crawled out of a sea of ​​blood and corpses."

"Since you are not interested, then we can go to other fun places... For example," Dr. Heidi raised her beautiful legs in black silk stockings, scraped Chu Xiao's thighs with her knees, put her bright red lips close to the young man's ears, and deliberately stimulated his ears with her moist breath, "The big bed in this room is very soft..."

"Thank you for your kindness." Chu Xiao had to admit that Dr. Heidi's flirtatious temptation was indeed tempting, but he didn't have the courage to be honest with a woman who was obviously a venomous scorpion. "As you can see, I'm on my 'honeymoon' now. My girl is very stingy."

Ruan Mengmeng stood between Heidi and Chu Xiao at the right time, raised her delicate chin, and showed her sovereignty like a cat protecting its food.

"That's a pity." Facing Chu Xiao's rejection, Dr. Heidi did not show any disappointment, nor did she show any intention of giving up. She smiled and said, "Then I can only look forward to the next opportunity. Believe me, I know how to make you comfortable better than this pretty girl..."

Ruan Mengmeng was confronting Dr. Heidi, but things began to change on the ring.

The man bitten to death by the zombies slowly climbed up from the ring. A large piece of flesh was missing from his neck. His head drooped and he let out a creepy roar. Due to the massive blood loss, the man who had become a zombie had a strange pale color, and his eyeballs were almost melted. Because the prey had turned into a fellow zombie, the other zombie stopped biting and stood up.

Two zombies stood on the ring, roaring at the audience outside the cage. They kept attacking the cage, with their bloody arms stretching out from the gaps in the cage, as if they wanted to tear the audience in the stands to pieces.

At first, the audience watched the two zombies perform in the cage for fun - to them, it was just like watching new animals in a zoo. After all, the passengers on the ship had been away from land before the disaster, and under the protection of the cult, they had never seen the zombie craze.

However, as time went on, the guests gradually became impatient.

"Where are the people? Why hasn't anyone come to get rid of these two monsters?"

"Hurry up and start the next game! I'm not here to visit the zoo! I'm still waiting to place my bets!"

Chu Xiao also noticed the commotion in the stands and turned to look at the center of the ring. On the ring, two zombies were still attacking the cage, showing their bloody teeth to the audience in the stands.

"Doctor, after you finish a fight, will you just leave the zombies alone?" Chu Xiao had a bad feeling.

Doctor Heidi also frowned: "That shouldn't be the case. Where are all the people who cleaned up the mess?"

An unsettling sound came from the cage on the ring, which was particularly harsh in the midst of the noise. The metal cage that held the ring was opened without any warning, and the zombies trapped in the cage immediately jumped out of the ring.

The audience at the front has not yet realized what is happening - having never experienced an apocalyptic disaster, they cannot truly understand how terrifying zombies are to ordinary people.

The zombies that escaped from the cage immediately pounced on the nearest audience. With a shrill scream, the fear in the VIP area was instantly ignited! Panic spread instantly, and the panicked guests screamed and ran away from the zombies. The scene inevitably fell into a huge chaos!

"It's bad!" Chu Xiao and Ruan Mengmeng have rich experience in this kind of thing. They must get rid of those zombies as soon as possible, otherwise the number of zombies will increase rapidly in such a chaotic and dense crowd!

However, even though Chu Xiao and Ruan Mengmeng were determined to rush over and deal with the zombies, the chaotic crowd became their biggest obstacle. These passengers who had never experienced a disaster were completely overwhelmed by fear, and the whole scene almost reminded Chu Xiao of the day when the disaster first broke out.

Chu Xiao's eyes became extremely solemn. Under the current situation, the spread is inevitable!

Chapter 75: Lost

Things developed just as Chu Xiao expected, and even got worse.

The VIP area was relatively closed and could only be entered by elevator, so almost everyone subconsciously fled to the elevator entrance, causing serious congestion in front of the elevator. However, as the only passage, the elevator actually stopped at this time!

The first person to arrive at the elevator door desperately knocked on the elevator door and shouted for help in the direction of the camera. However, the people behind did not know that the elevator was not working. Out of fear of zombies, they continued to squeeze forward, resulting in greater chaos. Some people did not die in the mouths of zombies, but fell in the chaos and were trampled to death by their own kind.

The bodies that were trampled to death soon turned into zombies, roaring and knocking down the panicked people around them. The zombies in the hall were like wolves thrown into a sheepfold, wantonly killing humans who had no will to resist. The number of zombies increased rapidly, and the entire luxurious VIP area had become a hell of screams and blood.

Chu Xiao and the girls around him avoided the chaotic crowd. The whole thing was full of conspiracy. Why did the cage of the ring suddenly open? Why did the staff who were supposed to appear disappear? Why did the elevator to the upper floor stop working at the right time?

Chu Xiao could see that this was most likely a man-made tragedy, but now was not the time to care about such things. The specific reasons would naturally be found by the ship's management personnel, and what he had to do now was to survive in this hell that was gradually turning into a flesh-and-blood space.

The panicked crowd was like a chaotic tide, and Chu Xiao also had to guard against the zombies that would occasionally rush out from the crowd.

"This is such a familiar feeling!" Chu Xiao kicked a zombie that suddenly came back and sent it flying. He didn't rush to finish off the zombie but led his girls to move to a place with fewer people. He was not panicked because he had experienced a lot, so facing this kind of sudden situation, he was able to calmly find a way to survive.

“Mengmeng, there’s no need to finish off the enemy! Prioritize getting away from the crowd! We can’t be held back by these things!” Chu Xiao said to Ruan Mengmeng, glancing coldly at the blindly fleeing crowd. “Anyway, there are plenty of people here to help us lead these monsters away.”

"I understand!" Ruan Mengmeng walked beside Chu Xiao, with no sense of tension in her eyes. "It's a pity that I don't have a suitable weapon."

She thought of the samurai sword that was taken away by Shi Koti before boarding the ship. After all, it was quite convenient to use. The key point was that it was the first gift Xiao Ge gave her. It was very commemorative for Ruan Mengmeng. If possible, she would like to get the sword back.

Chu Xiao looked at Dr. Heidi beside him and asked, "Doctor, you are more familiar with the situation here. Is there no other way out besides the elevator?"

Dr. Heidi's expression was solemn, and her flirtatious and charming look was gone: "No, the only way out here is the elevator over there."

Chu Xiao couldn't help but complain: "Didn't your people consider emergencies when designing this ship? There's not even a safe passage! What kind of a horrible design is this!"

"The people above should have noticed the changes here, and the people from the Security Department should be here soon! The problem is, we have to hold on until the people from the Security Department get here!" While saying this, Dr. Heidi couldn't help but curse in her native language. Chu Xiao couldn't understand what she was cursing, but he could probably guess that she was cursing the group of idiots from the Security Department who were there to eat and do nothing.

Dr. Heidi's words gave Chu Xiao a temporary idea. It was almost impossible for him and Ruan Mengmeng to get rid of the zombies in the hall at the moment. Although Chu Xiao was much stronger than at the beginning, it was not a big deal to deal with a lone zombie with bare hands, but once he faced a group of zombies, he had no way to deal with it.

"Take us to a private room and hide there for a while." Chu Xiao said to Heidi, "I hope it's true as you said, the security department will arrive soon."

"I know what you're worried about." Dr. Heidi said, "Although the security department of this ship is useless, it's not that easy to kill. A few zombies can't take down such a big ship."

Chu Xiao really didn’t think that “just a few zombies” could destroy such a huge maritime city-state, but it was a huge threat to them who were trapped in the VIP area on the lower level of the casino.

The number of zombies was increasing, and the speed of their growth was far beyond Chu Xiao's imagination, which caused considerable trouble for Chu Xiao and his team. Chu Xiao had to break off a table leg as a temporary weapon, and rushed to the front with Ruan Mengmeng, regardless of whether the ones blocking the way were panicked living people or ferocious zombies, they all knocked them down with one stick!

"Follow closely!" he reminded the girls, gritting his teeth and moving quickly towards the box that Dr. Heidi pointed to.

When the group finally arrived at the door of the box, Chu Xiao was about to breathe a sigh of relief while holding the blood-stained table leg, but when he looked back, his heart suddenly sank.

Where's his maid?

Where is that big, beautiful and caring maid?

"Where's Etta?"

"I saw her just now," said Dr. Heidi. It was obvious that she didn't care about the safety of a cyborg maid. "She must have been separated by the crowd when she was escaping."

Chu Xiao looked at the chaotic crowd, crying and screaming everywhere. Now, scenes of zombies knocking down living people and eating them wantonly could be seen everywhere.

"Mengmeng, you guys go in first, I'll go get Eta back!"

"Brother Xiao, I'll go with you!" Ruan Mengmeng felt a little guilty. She thought it was all her fault for not keeping an eye on Eta, which led to the maid getting separated from them.

“Mengmeng, you stay here, make sure to keep the door open for me.” With every passing second, the situation in the hall became more dangerous. Chu Xiao couldn’t let his girl take another risk. Even though Miss Ruan was very skilled, she didn’t have a suitable weapon. “Don’t worry, this place isn’t that big, I’ll be back soon!”

After instructing Ruan Mengmeng, Chu Xiao turned around and rushed into the chaotic crowd again, following the route he had just taken to look for the ignorant and somewhat pitiful maid girl who belonged to him.

……

At the same time as the shocking changes took place in the VIP area of ​​the casino, in a secret space at the bottom of the Nibelungen, the owner of the ship, Sir Lobelin, raised his head and looked at the slender white woman immersed in the culture tank with a gentle expression.

The glass culture jar contained a beautiful woman who looked about the same as Anna, but she was obviously older. At this moment, she was immersed in the green solution with her eyes closed, like a lifeless corpse.

"It will be there soon." Sir's voice was soft and gentle, as if he was talking to himself, but more like he was talking to the woman in the culture tank.

At this time, the head maid Sophia appeared beside the knight, and she quietly reported the situation in the casino to Sir Lobelin.

"Really?" The knight's tone was slightly unhappy. He didn't like being disturbed by such mundane matters at this time. "Let Angel clean it up and don't dirty my boat."

Chapter 76 Punishment

A few minutes ago, when Etta was following his master and trying to rush out of the chaotic crowd, he was bumped into by a fleeing person, and the chips in his arms fell to the ground.

After being knocked down, Eta did not stand up and follow immediately, but picked up the chips scattered on the ground one by one.

"This is the master's bargaining chip." Etta muttered softly.

However, when she collected the scattered chips and raised her head again, she only saw the screaming crowd and the ugly zombies wantonly killing their prey. In the hell of blood and flesh flying everywhere, Aita had completely lost sight of her master.

She watched the panicked crowd running away in front of her, her eyes did not change, just as calm as before. Etta was not panicking, and now she seemed unable to understand what fear was, just a little dazed.

She did not choose to run away. Like a child who was separated from his parents, he could only stand there in a daze.

The zombies were tearing the flesh of the living people around her. The attacked people were screaming and wailing. The crushed man reached out his hand to Aita and begged with difficulty: "Save...save me..."

Eta watched the scene indifferently. The spurting blood stained the maid's dress. The delicate and lovely maid looked down at the struggling man, watching the hope in his eyes gradually turn into despair, and then he finally lost his life, like a tattered doll that no longer moved.

The zombie raised its head from the man's body, its face covered with blood and flesh, looking extremely hideous. The monster looked at the maid closest to it, while Etta just stared at the zombie calmly.

Faced with the prey so close, the zombie immediately let go of the corpse it was biting and pounced on the maid.

"Get out of my way!"

At this moment, a bloody table leg flew over and hit the zombie's head. The huge impact interrupted the zombie's attack. Then Chu Xiao rushed through the crowd that was running around like a headless fly, and punched the zombie to the ground. The zombie tried to fight back, but Chu Xiao would not give it a chance, and crushed the zombie's mandible with one foot.

"Aita." Chu Xiao rushed to the maid and hugged her in his arms, "Are you okay?"

Aita smiled at Chu Xiao and said, "Yes, Master, I am not injured at all."

Chu Xiao was not surprised by Etta's reaction. As long as she was safe, he could be considered relieved. Chu Xiao realized that even though they had not been together for a long time, Etta's importance in his heart was far greater than he had imagined. Before he found Etta, Chu Xiao was really afraid that in the end, he would find a bloody corpse.

"Come with me," Chu Xiao picked up the table leg on the ground and held Etta's hand tightly with his other hand, fearing that he would lose his maid again. "Mengmeng and the others have already gone to the box. Let's go and meet them now."

As Chu Xiao spoke, he pulled Eta and rushed towards the box - after just a short delay, the screams in the hall had decreased a lot, and the number of zombies had obviously exceeded the number of survivors.

Because Chu Xiao was in a hurry, the chips in Etta's arms fell to the ground again. The maid subconsciously prepared to pick them up, but was stopped by Chu Xiao: "Why are you picking up these things? Go!"

After that, without waiting for the maid to answer, he swung a table leg and smashed the zombies that were rushing towards him. It was indeed not convenient to use a table leg as a weapon, but it was better than using bare hands. Fortunately, the furniture in this hall was of good quality, and the wooden table leg was quite heavy in the hand.

On the way back to the box with Eta, Chu Xiao saw the android waiters in the VIP area. The waiters, who were also androids like Eta, stood in the chaos, and even maintained a polite and reserved smile on their faces. Even when they were attacked and eaten by zombies, the expressions of these androids did not change.

Such a scene made Chu Xiao feel very uncomfortable. He didn't know whether these artificial humans would turn into zombies, and whether there would be any difference after turning into zombies. He was just glad that if he had been a little later, his maid would have suffered the same fate.

As it turned out, Chu Xiao made the right choice by asking Ruan Mengmeng to help hold the door open.

After the initial panic, when the survivors realized that there was nowhere to escape, some of them would naturally think of finding a temporary safe place to hide and wait for rescue. It didn't take Chu Xiao too long to go back to find Aita. When he returned to the box, he saw several unfamiliar faces in the box.

There were people originally in this box. When the disaster happened, the people in the box were still immersed in the exciting game of gambling. Because the sound insulation effect of the box was quite good, if Ruan Mengmeng and Dr. Heidi had not rushed in, these gamblers in the box who were addicted to gambling would probably not know what was happening.

At this moment, Ruan Mengmeng stood by the door with a cold face, looking fierce and unwilling to let anyone in. Not far from the girl, a strong man was lying on the ground, wailing in pain.

"Whoever dares to close the door now, I will kill him." Chu Xiao rushed into the box with Eta, and heard Ruan Mengmeng's fierce threat. The girl was a young and beautiful girl in front of Chu Xiao, but in front of outsiders, she was a strong and violent bad girl.

Chu Xiao knew what happened without asking. No wonder, seeing more and more zombies outside, the people in the box asked to close the door immediately to prevent the zombies from breaking in. Chu Xiao didn't come in, and Ruan Mengmeng certainly wouldn't agree to this, so she stood guard at the door and clashed with other survivors.

Chu Xiao knew that there was no right or wrong in this matter. If it were him, he would also close the door as soon as possible. After all, if he hesitated for a moment at this time, the survivors in the box would be at risk of being wiped out. So, as soon as Chu Xiao entered the room, he turned around and pushed the door of the box shut, and then asked Ruan Mengmeng to help block the door with some furniture.

Seeing the two of them skillfully blocking the door with the furniture in the box, Dr. Heidi said, "It seems that this is not the first time you have done this."

"If we weren't skilled, we would have died a long time ago."

After blocking the door, Chu Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and finally felt a little relieved. He hadn't encountered such a thing for a long time, and he missed this thrilling feeling.

At this time, Aita took out a chip from his arms and said to Chu Xiao with great guilt: "I'm sorry, Master, this is the only chip you asked me to keep. Please punish me, Master."

Aita acted very remorseful, as if escaping death was not as important as losing a few chips.

Chu Xiao opened his mouth and almost cursed, but the words came to his lips, but he couldn't curse. He now realized that the reason why Eta got lost was entirely because of these chips.

He sighed, thought about it and took the chips from Etta's hand, saying: "Etta, I must say that your life is much more important than these damn chips. You put yourself in danger because of these useless chips, which makes me very dissatisfied. Well, remember Etta, you are my property now. As a loyal maid of the master, how can you put the 'master's property' in danger without authorization? Remember, this is the reason why I punish you, not some damn chips."

After saying that, Chu Xiao reached out and tapped Etta's smooth forehead gently: "This is the punishment, you have to remember it, understand?"

Eta touched the place where Chu Xiao hit him, his eyes slightly confused.

"Good master," the maid said softly, "I will remember it."

Chapter 77 Enemy

There were other people in the box, but Chu Xiao did not take these gamblers seriously. As long as these people did not do anything stupid, Chu Xiao had no interest in dealing with them.

The sturdy man lying on the ground was the one who was knocked down by Ruan Mengmeng when he tried to force the door closed. The remaining people had to huddle in the corner and tremble due to Ruan Mengmeng's strength.

"Doctor, do you have any idea about this matter?" Chu Xiao asked Dr. Heidi.

This mutation reeks of conspiracy from the beginning to the end, and it doesn't seem like an accident at all.

Doctor Heidi frowned and said, "I have some clues, but they can't change our current situation. Come to think of it, this matter is also related to you."

"How can this be attributed to me?" Chu Xiao was confused. He couldn't think of any connection between himself and this attack.

"Halman."

"Who is this?" Chu Xiao was confused.

"He's the leader of the militants you captured," Dr. Heidi explained.
