At the same time, the newly opened shops were also broadcasting the news.
After all, quite a few people were staying in the hotel now, so hearing about the price increase would certainly cause some dissatisfaction.
But most people thought it wasn't a problem. The original prices were so cheap that even with the increase, they couldn't be considered expensive at all.
In this hotel, the rooms were clean and safe, the food was clean and delicious - even if it became more expensive, it would still be incomparably better than those bases outside!
So the faint voices of discontent were quickly suppressed.
Moreover, no one had any thoughts of checking out. Instead, they were all racking their brains trying to figure out how to earn more points.
The zombie-killing simulation training camp became very popular as a result.
Inside the training camp, there were thirty small rooms.
Twenty were single-person training rooms, and ten were multi-person training rooms.
After entering a room, guests could choose various scenarios, as well as the level and number of zombies.
Then, upon selecting "start simulation," the scene in front of them would change, and zombies would appear.
If bitten or scratched by a zombie, the pain and the feeling of approaching death or mutation would feel very real.
But they would quickly return to normal, without causing any actual harm to the body.
Although most people were quite afraid of pain, they also clearly understood the importance of training themselves.
The hotel was good, but it wasn't free.
To continue staying here, they had to keep earning points.
There's no such thing as a free lunch, and this principle still held true even in the apocalypse.
So everyone wanted to improve their abilities.
Even if they couldn't kill zombies, they could practice how to dodge and escape.
This way, when they went out to find valuable items, they could increase their chances of survival.
Therefore, almost every day there were people queuing at the entrance of the training camp.
After the second floor of Hotel Building No. 2 was unlocked, it quickly became fully occupied.
The guest room structure of each hotel building was the same, but the shops that opened were different. Building No. 2 didn't have hot pot restaurants or barbecue places; guests who wanted to go to these shops had to come to Building No. 1.
But the distance wasn't far, as it was just next door, only a few steps away.
In the future, when there are more hotel buildings and more guests, they would surely open some hot pot and barbecue branches in other hotel buildings.
The bar was on the first floor of Building No. 2, divided into a dance club and a quiet bar.
The quiet bar played soothing music, where people could drink and chat, while the dance club had thunderous music where guests could dance freely on the dance floor. The soundproofing was excellent; no matter how loud it got inside, the sound wouldn't travel outside. The same was true for the KTV.
Inside, there were all kinds of alcohol, and if guests were interested, they could even mix their own drinks.
Of course, the alcohol in the bar was certainly more expensive than what was sold in the supermarket.
The cheapest was still over ten points per glass or bottle.
However, for those who had been in the apocalyptic world for a long time and felt depressed and painful, coming to the bar to dance and relax was quite nice.
The internet cafe was right next to the bar, with a total of fifty computers.
People could play games, watch movies or TV series, just like in pre-apocalypse internet cafes. It cost five points for two hours.
However, if they wanted to play games, they could only match with other guests who were also in the internet cafe or play against AI, after all, it was still a hellish apocalypse outside - who could get a computer and play online games?
But the guests were very satisfied.
No one had imagined they could still use computers after the apocalypse hit.
...
Near the hotel, two girls set up a simple tent.
They were sisters, both level two ability users. They had been struggling to survive in another city, but after hearing about a miraculous hotel that opened in City A, they traveled thousands of miles to get here.
Although the journey was fraught with danger and they nearly froze to death, they finally made it to the hotel entrance.
Unfortunately, they hadn't managed to secure a room earlier.
Now that there were no vacant rooms in the hotel, they could only wait outside for now.
However, they went to Peace Supermarket to buy some food with points. On their way back, they encountered a high-level zombie, which scared them so much they almost screamed like meerkats. But the zombie just looked at them and lay down to sunbathe.
Oh, it turned out to be a slacker zombie.
Even though it was a slacker zombie, its level was very high. If it really came to a fight, they definitely couldn't win, so they didn't dare to act rashly and quickly ran away.
"Sigh!" Song Ruoruo took a bite of bread and sighed, "I wonder when we'll be able to stay in the hotel."
"Next time, we need to be more alert," Song Pengpeng said. "At night, we'll take turns sleeping, because sometimes the hotel suddenly has vacancies at night, so we should check every now and then."
"Okay," Song Ruoruo nodded.
Just then, a man walked towards the two of them.
This man was very handsome, but he looked a bit haggard.
He walked up to the two sisters, and before he could speak, Song Pengpeng asked warily, "Who are you? What do you want?"
As she spoke, she hid both her and her sister's bread behind her back.
After all, in the apocalypse, killing for a bite of food wasn't uncommon.
"Don't be nervous," the man showed a friendly smile. "I mean no harm."
"Whether you do or not, we don't know you. Please leave," Song Pengpeng said.
"Pengpeng, don't be like that," Song Ruoruo quickly said. "He doesn't look like a bad person."
The man hurriedly said, "I really am not. I just wanted to ask if you're trying to stay at the hotel?"
"Isn't everyone camping out here trying to stay at the hotel?" Song Pengpeng frowned. "What exactly do you want to say?"
"Can you take me into the hotel?" The man put on a pitiful expression. "Life outside is too hard. I heard it's like heaven inside the hotel. I want to stay there too."
Because he was handsome, as soon as he showed such a pitiful look, Song Ruoruo's heart immediately softened.
But Song Pengpeng wasn't so easily fooled. In the apocalypse, could good looks put food on the table?
Just as Song Ruoruo was about to say something, Song Pengpeng said, "If you want to stay there, why don't you just wait for a vacancy yourself? Why come to us? Don't tell me you want us to give you things to exchange for points? Forget it!"
If they had points, of course they would keep them for themselves. Why should they share with a stranger?
"No, that's not what I mean," the man quickly said. "I can give you crystal cores for you to exchange for points!"
"Really?" Song Ruoruo said excitedly.
"Of course." The man immediately took out two level-one crystal cores. "These two cores are for you."
Song Ruoruo wanted to take them, but Song Pengpeng stopped her.
Song Pengpeng looked at the man with increasing suspicion: "What exactly do you mean?"
The man sighed and said, "To be honest with you, the owner of this hotel and I used to be a couple."
