The pricing of weapons is still a bit expensive.
Because the weapons here, used to deal with zombies, are very effective and don't require much careful maintenance.
Swords and knives range from 1,000 to 10,000 points.
Firearms are all above 10,000 points, but bullets are relatively cheap, with ten points buying one.
Guns are expensive, but as long as you aim well, you can directly headshot a level one zombie.
For ordinary people without Supernatural Abilities, having such a gun is undoubtedly a great source of confidence.
Moreover, they don't harm humans, so there's no need to worry about accidental discharge.
However, now, apart from high-level Ability Users, no one can come up with 10,000 points at once.
So everyone is working hard to practice killing zombies, exercise, or go out to find valuable things to bring back.
For a time, the turnover of human entertainment establishments actually decreased a bit.
But Gu Wanyin isn't in a hurry.
If humans don't consume, there are still the demons!
Besides, people are saving money to buy weapons.
Once they have enough points, the weapon shop will harvest a large number of points.
By that time, with handy weapons, people will be more efficient in killing zombies, and with more points, there's no need to worry about turnover!
Bai Shuwen has a Supernatural Ability, so she's not in a hurry to buy weapons. She wants to save up more to buy a good gun.
Dong Yue, on the other hand, was picking and choosing in the weapon shop. Then, together with her parents, they pooled nearly 2,000 points to buy a very nice short knife.
She had always used a short knife to stab zombies before, but her previous knife had become too blunt to use well.
When their family of three goes out to kill zombies or find valuable things, they can use this short knife for self-defense.
Zhuang Xiaoxia also bought the same one as her.
Her level one earth-type Supernatural Ability isn't very useful in most situations, so it's better to have a handy weapon.
After buying the weapons, the two of them went to the newly opened hot pot restaurant to eat, having a small celebration.
The hot pot restaurant has a full range of ingredients, including various meats, vegetables, meatballs, and noodles. You can choose from spicy, tomato, sauerkraut, and other flavors. Besides soup-based options, there's also dry-mixed hot pot, all tasting very good.
Customers choose their own ingredients, but it's not priced by weight. Instead, vegetable and noodle portions are one point each, while meat portions are two points each. Each portion isn't large, but the price isn't expensive either, allowing customers to try several ingredients.
There are several serving windows at the front. After selecting the ingredients, customers swipe their cards next to the serving window, and a steaming bowl of hot pot appears.
Having just spent so many points on weapons, Dong Yue and Zhuang Xiaoxia didn't dare to be extravagant. They each spent only about ten points to have a taste.
Then, they took their newly bought weapons to the zombie-killing simulation training camp to practice.
...
Gu Wanyin was soaking in the hot spring with Nine-Tails and Tree Spirit.
Moon Eagle was in the men's area, and Cat Er had returned to the demon realm for some unknown reason.
Also present were the young demons from the Koi Fish Clan.
They were swimming happily in the hot spring pool, sometimes even transforming into their original forms, swaying their heads and tails.
"The Koi Fish Clan really lives happily," Tree Spirit said enviously.
"Indeed," Nine-Tails sighed, "We demons, who doesn't have to go through day after day of cultivation, absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, to be able to take human form? But the Koi Fish Clan can transform just a few years after birth, and they don't need to cultivate. Their cultivation level comes automatically, and even without cultivation, they live carefree lives."
To be honest, in the hearts of demons, there was more or less some envy, jealousy, and hatred towards the Koi Fish Clan.
However, Nine-Tails and the others were just talking, not really minding it.
They were already powerful demons, and being born as a koi fish was also one's fate. There's no use in constantly envying and being jealous. It's better to work hard and improve one's cultivation and magical powers.
Just as Gu Wanyin was about to say something, she heard a burst of laughter. She turned around and saw that the Rabbit Demons had also come to soak in the hot spring, wearing newly bought swimsuits.
The Rabbit Demons all entered the hot spring pool. They were chatting and laughing, but then a small Koi Fish Demon splashed too enthusiastically, and water droplets fell on the heads of several Rabbit Demons.
"What are you doing?" The Rabbit Demons immediately became unhappy, "Can't you behave yourself while soaking in the hot spring? This isn't your Koi Fish Clan's pool!"
"Why are you yelling? I didn't do it on purpose, and I didn't say I wouldn't apologize!" the Koi Fish Demon said pitifully.
"Your Koi Fish Clan never takes other demons seriously. Would you really apologize?"
"You... you're talking nonsense! When have we ever been like that?"
So, the Rabbit Demons and Koi Fish Demons all started arguing noisily.
The chatter was giving Gu Wanyin a headache.
These young demons' quarrels were too lively!
Nine-Tails was getting a headache from the noise. She directly slapped her nine long tails in the pool, causing water to splash everywhere.
"What's all this noise about?" Nine-Tails frowned, "It's just a small matter. Don't you have any demonic dignity?"
"Big... Big Sister Nine-Tails."
The Rabbit Demons and Koi Fish Demons immediately quieted down, hanging their little heads to listen to the lecture.
Seeing this, Gu Wanyin realized that Nine-Tails' status in the demon realm seemed quite high. At least, these young demons were all very respectful to her!
Tree Spirit said with a smile, "Nine-Tails is also for your own good. Didn't you see the hotel rules when you came? It's fine to argue a bit, but I saw that you were already trending towards physical confrontation. Once there's a fight, you'll be expelled from the hotel and blacklisted. Don't you want to come back in the future?"
"Of course we do!" Happy Carp said, "We won't fight."
Her Koi Fish friends all agreed.
The Rabbit Demons also obediently admitted their mistake.
"Then shake hands and make up," Tree Spirit said, "Don't quarrel again in the future, okay?"
The Koi Fish Demons and Rabbit Demons looked at each other, then shook hands one by one to make peace.
After all, they were young demons without any real malice. They quickly reconciled and even happily played together, planning to go for barbecue in the evening.
After soaking in the hot spring, Gu Wanyin changed her clothes and went out.
Nine-Tails and Tree Spirit went back to their rooms to rest, while Gu Wanyin came to the lobby.
As soon as he saw her, Xu Shi said, "Boss, look, there are suddenly many more people outside! They all seem to be waiting for vacant rooms!"
Gu Wanyin turned to look, and indeed, the area around the hotel was already densely packed with people.
There were already quite a few people camping out near the hotel before, and now with so many more suddenly arriving, Gu Wanyin seriously suspected that they might have to squeeze far away.
Gu Wanyin went out to chat with them and learned that most of the newcomers were from Muruo Base.
Muruo Base was originally the largest base, with many high-level Ability Users, and life there was not bad.
But of course, it was far from being as good as the hotel!
After the Gu brothers and An Cairou died, a new leader took over, but some people didn't submit to him. The situation at Muruo Base became precarious, and the number of zombies was also increasing...
The new leader thought, why not just bring most of the people from Muruo Base to the hotel!
In the hotel, they could eat and drink well, play with phones and watch TV, living almost the same as before the apocalypse. Isn't that better than being a base leader?
