The End of the World: Starting by Taking Care of a Hundred Billion Female CEO
When the apocalypse broke out, the school issued a notice.
All students were to remain in their classrooms if they had class, and return to their dormitories if they didn't.
This resulted in many people being unable to escape when the zombie outbreak occurred, being bitten or scratched.
Because the chance of zombification was as high as sixty percent, in a classroom of fifty to sixty people, over thirty turned into zombies.
In such chaos, a slight delay meant death.
Therefore, the teaching building was an absolute hotbed for zombies.
Of course, the dormitory buildings were no exception.
Wang Yu faced the zombies coming from three directions at the main entrance. Whether they were the once beautiful class flower or the tall and handsome basketball player, all lay on the ground, reduced to cold corpses.
Well... they were corpses to begin with.
Facing the encirclement of zombies, Wang Yu was fearless, his Silver Dragon spear continuously swinging.
With every strike, several zombies would fall or be sent flying.
They were either impaled through the head or had their necks shattered, or they were knocked down in a cluster by the spear shaft, or directly speared away.
Chen Youting and the others inside the gate often saw zombies flying, at least three to four meters high.
Because the wall was nearly 3 meters high.
The pressure on their side was also immense, and the battle was perilous.
Chen Youting and Zhang Han held back the majority of the zombies in the center, while others on the flanks were responsible for clearing them.
However, not all thirty-odd people charged forward at once, as the space was limited, and such an approach would be restrictive.
Wang Yu had arranged for them to form two defensive lines.
The first line was to directly attack the pile of chairs; if there were too many, they would retreat and eliminate the zombies with their brothers in the second line.
This was to minimize casualties to the greatest extent possible.
After more than ten minutes, the area inside and outside the gate was piled high with corpses.
Chen Youting and the others were beginning to feel their stamina wane, but Wang Yu hadn't said to stop, so they could only push forward and kill.
Although they could see more zombies approaching from a distance, their numbers had significantly dwindled.
Only then did Wang Yu collect the corpses on the ground into his storage ring and return inside the main gate.
Because the zombies and wooden chairs were piled together, the gate couldn't be closed.
Wang Yu had to put these corpses and chairs behind the gate into his storage ring as well, before ordering people to secure the gate.
"Everyone go back and rest."
They were truly exhausted, and even Chen Youting and Zhang Han were no exception.
Let alone the others.
Some people's hands were visibly trembling, clearly due to the force and frequency with which they had swung their swords and blades.
It must be known that for ordinary people, lifting a weapon weighing two to three pounds would not be difficult.
But if you had to swing it dozens or hundreds of times continuously.
Their arms would undoubtedly be sore the next day.
Wang Yu walked along the perimeter wall and found no issues.
He then took out the zombie corpses and piled them up, instructing Chen Youting and Zhang Han to arrange for people to extract the worm crystals as soon as possible.
He then returned to the girls' dormitory area.
In just these twenty minutes, the girls had already dug out over a hundred worm crystals.
When Ma Ying handed Wang Yu two heavy bags full of worm crystals, he felt their substantial weight and couldn't help but sigh slightly.
Rebirth was truly different; the speed of collecting worm crystals was a world apart from his previous life.
In his past life, after zombies evolved, he had to use doors to create obstacles to trap them before smashing their skulls like playing whack-a-mole.
But now, after only an hour, he had already killed over six hundred zombies!
At least sixty percent of them were killed by him alone.
"Indeed, a head start leads to progress in every step..."
"With such an opening and such a start, I wonder when I can break through to the King level."
At this pace, Wang Yu would definitely be able to advance to level 3 within two days.
Level 3 was followed by level 4, where one could awaken an ability.
In fact, compared to the King level, Wang Yu was more interested in what changes would occur at level 4.
He already possessed wind abilities; if he awakened another ability at level 4, it would be like adding wings to a tiger!
Dual abilities...
Those were truly the favored sons of heaven, the darlings of the world.
Because abilities did not interfere with each other, if you had two abilities, your total ability capacity would almost be double that of others.
In such a situation, it wasn't simply 1+1=2.
It was a leap in strength!
If you had dual abilities, as long as the abilities weren't too weak, you would undoubtedly be a powerful ability user.
In his previous life, Wang Yu had heard of dual-ability users on the continent, and there weren't just one or two.
However, only one had ultimately grown to become a dominant figure.
But in his previous life, he had been confined to Nan Hai Island, and he didn't know exactly how many dual-ability users there were on the continent or how powerful they were.
Wang Yu looked north.
That was the direction of mainland Xia.
...
During lunch, the worm crystals from both sides had been fully excavated.
The girls' side had 236, and the boys' side had 412.
A total of 648.
If they continued to kill zombies in the afternoon, they could collect 1000 level one worm crystals today.
But people were not machines; neither killing zombies nor digging for worm crystals was an easy task.
Therefore, these ordinary people needed to rest.
Furthermore, there weren't many zombies left around these two dormitory buildings; even if they killed all of them, they wouldn't reach 1000.
And if they went out to directly engage zombies in other areas, Wang Yu would have no problem, but these ordinary people wouldn't.
There would inevitably be casualties.
Currently, there was no immediate crisis, so there was no need to take such a risk.
Cultivating fighters was not easy; their food, drink, and supplies were all provided by Wang Yu.
He had also spent some effort and words to make them appear like true survivors of the apocalypse.
These were all investments, and there hadn't been much return yet, so he couldn't let them die in vain.
Although Wang Yu didn't care about the lives of others, he did care about the lives of his subordinates.
Because he knew that in the later stages of the apocalypse, population was also an important resource.
It could even be considered the most important.
For a large base to develop long-term or to continue growing stronger and become a super base.
Without a massive population base, such a base could not develop rapidly.
This was a simple truth: without a foundation, how could the upper echelons be supported?
Without ordinary survivors and low-level evolvers working themselves to death, how could a large number of mid-to-high-level evolvers be cultivated?
The flow of resources to the upper echelons was present in every era and every country and could not be avoided.
This was also the case in the apocalypse, and it was quite reasonable.
Because evolvers were the main force against zombies and other monsters, for a base to exist and develop, it had to sacrifice the interests of ordinary people to cultivate evolvers.
Otherwise, the base would perish.
Wang Yu had seen such examples in his previous life.
In the early stages of the apocalypse, some shelters took in survivors.
They implemented policies that were relatively fair and humane, rewarding those who did more, taking care of the old and weak, but they did not pay enough attention to evolvers.
This inevitably led to dissatisfaction among evolvers. They were morally bound, with greater ability came greater responsibility, risking their lives to search for supplies, only to distribute them freely to ordinary people who did nothing.
Such bases had only two outcomes.
Either they would be overthrown and controlled by evolvers, or they would fall apart and be destroyed by a zombie horde.
