Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

Chapter 68: Am I Really a Good Person?



After Alex retrieved the Strangler armored vehicle outside the Lily New Town, his primary objective was to visit the home of Lin Chengxun. He was still not over Lin Chengxun's beloved daughter. After all, their first encounter happened when she was in a dazed state. Alex genuinely hoped that a goddess like Lin Lanlan could truly fall in love with him. At Lin Chengxun's house, there were no men left.

In the recent battle, almost all the men in the southern district had mobilized, responding to Lin Chengxun's call to arms.

Lin Lanlan, curled up on the sofa, had her pure heart deeply traumatized by the previous night's events. For her, who valued chastity highly, she had thought of seeking death several times, especially after seeing the pain and disgust in Song Junshuang's eyes. She wished she could die in front of Song Junshuang to prove her fidelity. But she couldn't muster the courage to do so.

She admitted she was afraid of dying and wanted to live on. With the comfort of her two considerate and understanding stepmothers, Lin Lanlan began to accept this cruel reality.

However, soon, she received devastating news: her lover, Song Junshuang, had died in battle, followed by the death of her father, Lin Chengxun. Hordes of zombies invaded Lily New Town, this once paradisal refuge, turning it into a city of the dead, overrun by zombies.

"Don't be afraid, Lanlan! We are here, we will protect you!" a beautiful and young woman in her thirties comforted Lin Lanlan. Dressed in professional attire, she seemed to be a lawyer.

"I just checked, and the food in our villa can last for at most another half a month. After that..."

A tall and athletic woman in her twenties, dressed in sportswear, approached with a worried expression. "There might be food in the other villas, but now the outside is swarming with zombies, and we simply can't get out!" she said.

"Are we just going to sit here and wait to die?!"

"Our men have died out there, what are we, a few women, supposed to do now?!"

Lin Chengxun's two lovers, hugging Lin Lanlan, cried out in despair.

"What should we do? Are we... are we really going to die here?" Lin Lanlan, terrified, began to sob again. The experiences she faced that day were more than she had in her entire life. This not only made her stronger but also plunged her into utter confusion. Her pride and arrogance collapsed in an instant, leaving her feeling inferior and fearful.

Seeing Lin Lanlan cry, the other two young women also wiped their tears and sobbed, "It's all Dong Haobiao's fault, that beast! We could have lived here happily, but now... now... alas!"

"Now we are helpless, all women, without the strength to even truss a chicken. What will we do after we run out of food?"

Amidst their sighs and lamentations, all the women fell into despair...

Most of these women were dressed in luxurious clothes, exuding an air of nobility and elegance. They were the wives, lovers, and daughters of the men from the southern district, gathered here for their safety before Lin Chengxun and others set out. Before the apocalypse, these women were either aristocrats or wealthy heiresses, embodying the dignity and grace of the upper class.

But it was precisely because of this that they lacked decisiveness and bravery, unable to come up with any solutions in the face of their current difficulties. Everyone was engulfed in despair and confusion, hugging each other and weeping. The entire living room was filled with an atmosphere of decadence and hopelessness.

Just as they were in the depths of despair, the roaring sound of an engine approached from afar, and a powerful armored vehicle stopped at the gate of their villa. A young man wielding a flaming sword appeared before them, as if descending from the heavens.

"Hello, I'm the leader of another refuge. I heard an explosion here and came to see if I could help," Alex said calmly and elegantly. "The area outside is completely overrun with zombies; it's very dangerous here now."

The moment the women saw Alex and his armored vehicle, their eyes lit up with hope. Seizing what seemed like their last lifeline, the thirty-something lawyer hurriedly stood up and grabbed Alex's hand, pleading, "Sir, please save us! We are helpless women and have no idea what to do now!"

Alex glanced at the woman. She was a mature lady, full-bodied, with fair skin, and dressed in a noble and elegant manner, exuding a sense of class in her speech and actions. Alex was certain that this woman must have been an aristocrat before the apocalypse.

"Sir, please! Save us! We will do anything you ask!" Another woman in her twenties, tall and dignified, also stood up and clung to Alex, tears streaming down her face as she begged desperately, "Our men are dead, we... we really have no other options! Please, take us in!"

This dignified woman also exuded an air of nobility and elegance, her voice was incredibly pleasant and charming, with an indescribably gentle and captivating tone.

"Sir, please save us! We are very obedient and can do anything!"

"Sir, if you take us in, we promise to make you comfortable!"

The two women speaking, whom Alex had seen before, were Lin Chengxun's mistresses. Although they were attractive, they clearly weren't of good character. Alex wasn't very interested in them; what he wanted was a statement from Lin Lanlan.

Feeling Alex's gaze, Lin Lanlan raised her head, sobbing, "Brother, please take us in!"

Her eyes, brimming with tears, sparkled, and her pitiful look was heart-wrenching. Even in tears, there was an indescribable beauty about her. Alex's heart fluttered, remembering their previous wild encounter.

"My refuge doesn't lack food and water, but there are too many people inside," Alex paused, then continued as the three women waited anxiously, "And there's a rule in my refuge."

"Everyone who enters must become my servant and comply with any of my demands! Absolute obedience to me!"

"Whatever I ask of you, you must obey unconditionally!"

"Think it over. If you can abide by this rule, I can take you with me, provide a safe place to live, and ensure you have plenty of food and water."

After saying this, Alex fell silent, watching the group.
