Chapter 1： The end is coming

Chapter 1 The end is coming

"Clearance!"

Watching the game character on the screen kill the final BOSS with one punch, Wang Tao felt relieved.

His gaming addiction is actually not that big, after all, he is busy with work. But as long as he plays, it must be perfect. What about clearing the level without taking any damage, unlocking all achievements, etc.

Of course, it is limited to single-player games, and his family cannot afford to play online games that cost money.

The game Wang Tao played this time is called "Apocalypse Kill Kill Kill". It is a side-scrolling fighting game. It is not rich in content, but it is just for killing time. He didn't remember when he downloaded it. After playing for a day, he finally achieved all the achievements.

“Go out for a big meal and reward yourself for your hard work!” Just looking at the pouring rain outside the window, Wang Tao frowned, “Why is it still raining...”

He is an ordinary martial arts stand-in. The reason why he is playing games at home instead of working today is because it is raining too much outside, which has caused the crew to cancel all the performances today.

“I’m tired after a long day and don’t want to cook… There is a small restaurant downstairs, not far from me…”

Wang Tao finally decided to go out to eat.

As soon as I opened the door, the door of the neighbor opposite also opened.

A young woman wearing a black dress appeared. She was holding a mobile phone in her left hand, a bag on her elbow, and she was lifting high heels with her right hand. Those slender and well-proportioned black stockings legs made Wang Tao take a second look.

“Good evening, sister-in-law!”

Wang Tao was a little surprised to see her, but he still greeted her politely.

The young woman's name is Ding Yuqin, and she is the wife of a young director named Zhao Yuan. They got married not long ago and are very loving. Wang Tao and director Zhao are fellow villagers, and they are both in the film and television industry. Although they don't have much interaction, they are still familiar with each other. When they meet, he will call him Brother Zhao.

Wang Tao remembered that the couple returned to their hometown last month, and they didn’t know when they came back.

When the young woman heard Wang Tao's voice, she immediately raised her head, revealing a delicate little face with light makeup.

“It’s Xiao Wang, good evening!”

Ding Yuqin smoothed her hair and smiled slightly.

Wang Tao pressed the elevator button for her, but Ding Yuqin did not go in, but suddenly said:

“I just remembered that I forgot something, please go down first...”

Wang Tao’s face froze slightly, but he still said politely:

“Okay, then I’ll go down first.”

He was disliked again, but he was used to it.

Ding!

 Entering the elevator, Wang Tao sighed helplessly when he looked at the tall, 1.83-meter tall man in the elevator mirror and the ferocious scar on his face.

His face was accidentally injured during a filming, and he has developed a body that is comparable to that of a fitness instructor, which makes many people scared when they see him.

I think back then, he was also a niche student and had a chance to become the protagonist. As a result, now he has become a military substitute, and it is only used by villains...

 Smiling somewhat self-deprecatingly, Wang Tao walked out of the elevator, opened the unit door, and quickly rushed into a small restaurant called "Dakou Meat".

There was no one in the restaurant, and the old TV was playing the weather forecast. The host on the screen said that the heavy rainfall would stop tomorrow, so everyone should not panic.

“Boss Li, where is the person?”

Wang Tao shouted.

"coming!"

The sound came from the side door.

A moment later, the boss in a raincoat came in carrying a military green oil drum.

“I was just filling up the car with gas, what did Xiao Wang eat?”

“A big portion of fried rice noodles!”

“Okay! Wait a minute!”

Not long after, the boss came over with a large portion of rice noodles and complained at the same time:

“Alas, with this **** weather, including Xiao Wang, we have less than twenty guests today, and we can’t even make any rent...”

Wang Tao smiled and shook his head, then asked curiously:

“Where’s Sister Liu? She didn’t come today?”

They are a mom-and-pop shop, and Sister Liu is Boss Li’s wife.

"She has a fever and is sleeping inside. But there is no one here today, so I can do it alone."

Boss Li shrugged.

Wang Tao didn't say anything more when he saw this. The heavy rain today made it impossible for many people to do their jobs.

“Boss, let’s go. The money has been transferred to you. Take a look!”

“No problem, walk slowly!”

The Xingfu community where Wang Tao lives is an old-fashioned community with a sense of age. It has only one small courtyard and four six-story buildings. It has a small permanent population and the elevator was added later. Wang Tao lives in No. 501, Building 4. But unlike Director Zhao next door, his house was bought, while Wang Tao’s was rented.

Two bedrooms and one living room, the monthly rent is 3,000 yuan. Although this is not the center of Huangfeng City, it is relatively close to Huangfeng Film and Television City, so the rent is not cheap.

Originally, Wang Tao had a roommate to share the rent with, but that roommate gave up on his dream of becoming a star and returned to his hometown to get married. Wang Tao has been considering whether to move out recently. He can no longer afford the rent.

There are several dumbbells and a sandbag in the living room. Wang Tao exercises every day. After all, if you want to have a good figure, exercise is indispensable.

But forget it today, finally take a day off, so relax completely.

“Let’s play on the computer until twelve o’clock. Go to bed early today.”

As soon as he sat down, Wang Tao suddenly felt a heartbreaking pain all over his body.

Zizi—

Looking at the sparking wires under his feet, Wang Tao's eyes widened, then his vision went dark and he fainted.

…

"…very hungry!"

In a daze, Wang Tao woke up from hunger and found himself lying on the floor.

Getting up quickly and looking at the burnt wires and computers, Wang Tao felt confused for a while.

“I was really shocked? Wasn’t it a dream? Am I still alive?”

There were a lot of snacks on the table, and Wang Tao, who was so hungry, grabbed them and ate them.

"ah-"

Suddenly, a piercing scream came from outside.

He subconsciously came to the window to look, and then his pupils suddenly shrank.

“What the hell!”

In the yard of the community downstairs, I saw a man covered in blood pressing a middle-aged man under him, tearing and eating his flesh!

The man's eyes were wandering, and it was obvious that he was dying.

The **** man raised his head, revealing a ferocious and terrifying face.

“Zombies, zombies?!”

Wang Tao's eyes widened in disbelief.

filming? impossible! He is too familiar with filming, which is obviously not the case, not to mention that there are no cameras or other staff here - just as he thought that there was no one else, several zombies came one after another from the blind corner of the field of vision to join the scene. A gluttonous feast.

Wang Tao was in a daze for a while. The man on the ground had been almost cut into pieces.

“vomit~”

Wang Tao felt nauseated and vomited out everything he had just eaten.

“Don’t panic! Call the police!”

After forcibly calming down, Wang Tao quickly turned on his mobile phone and made an emergency call, but all messages showed that the line was busy.

He opened the mobile browser again and wanted to search for the local emergency number. As a result, countless shocking news appeared before our eyes at the same time.

The end of the world is coming! 》

《Zombie! The whole world is full of zombies! 》

《The zombie virus is highly contagious! Please hide in a safe place and wait for rescue! 》

《The whole world is attacked by the zombie virus! It is recommended to seek refuge in a less crowded place! 》

“Known ways of spreading the virus are body fluids, scratches, bites, and air (suspected)”

《The incubation period of the zombie virus is between one minute and twenty-four hours, which may be related to the strength of your own immunity. Please be sure to take preventive measures! If you are unfortunately infected, please isolate yourself as soon as possible and remove the infected part! 》

"Most water sources have not been affected yet, but it is recommended to filter and boil, or distill them before use. If the water turns yellow and green, do not drink it! 》

《Individual zombies will retain some of their habits during life, so be sure to distinguish them! 》

"Some areas are completely paralyzed, and water and electricity have been cut off one after another..."

"An expert: Our country has made great progress in anti-zombie virus serum, but it still needs a little time!" 》

Wang Tao was dumbfounded when he saw this overwhelming news.

How could the world end so easily?

He fainted for a few hours—no! Not a few hours! Wang Tao checked the time. The previous payment record at the small restaurant was 8:00 pm on April 3, 4444, and now it is 9:00 am on April 7. In other words, he was in a coma for three days? !
