Sorry, But I Never Rely On Luck When Playing Cards

Chapter 31: Chapter 14: The Special Survivor_2

"But it’s not too bad, they’re not hard to deal with."

"As long as we act quickly, it’s actually similar to dealing with ordinary Zombie Beasts."

"It’s just a matter of hitting them a few more times."

Ree Shil didn’t care much.

Zombie Beasts evolution takes time, simply put, they need to break out of their shells.

During this process, there is ample time for him to smash them several times with the new[Iron stick], which is what he had been doing all along.

After resting, everyone continued on their way.

They encountered a few scattered Zombie Beasts on the road. After dealing with all of them, the Zombie Beast Hound brought them to a large gate.

[Woof!]

The Zombie Beast Hound barked at the iron gate, indicating that this was one of the doors it had mentioned.

There was a password device next to the gate, which required a six-digit password to open.

"But we can’t get in without the password."

Mossy Mushroom hesitated.

"Move aside, let me try."

Ree Shil walked up and smashed the password device with his stick.

"What are you doing! Cute Mushroom!"

"I’ve heard the older generation used to fix TVs like this."

"You definitely heard it wrong somewhere!"

"The door is open, damn."

Unexpectedly, the gate slowly opened after he messed with it.

"Let’s go, lead the way."

Ree Shil gestured for the Zombie Beast Hound to continue working.

With the Zombie Beast Hound acting as a scout, they began planning to explore the area behind the gate.

Behind the iron gate was a grand hall, and at the end of the hall was a long corridor.

After passing through uneventfully, they entered a spacious hallway.

On both sides of the corridor were metal doors. Ree Shil walked to the first door on the left side.

Pressing the button outside the door, it opened automatically.

The room was about ten to a dozen square meters. However, the living facilities inside were quite complete.

Desk, bed, washing facilities... it had everything.

The quilt on the bed was folded neatly, showing that the owner of the room was quite tidy.

Ree Shil stretched out his finger and wiped it on the table, picking up a lot of dust.

"There’s no one on my side either."

Mossy Mushroom came out of the room opposite.

"This should be a dormitory area."

"In that case, let’s check each room."

Ree Shil took a cursory glance, there were dozens of metal doors.

[Woof!]

At this moment, the Zombie Beast Hound barked at them from a distance of about ten meters ahead.

"It said it smelled a Zombie Beast in this room."

As expected, there were Zombie Beasts even here.

"They’re so slow that they shouldn’t be able to detect us through a door."

Ree Shil shrugged.

So in the following days, one person, one mushroom, and one piece of grass started to search the rooms separately.

Of these, seven rooms were warned by the Zombie Beast Hound, so they didn’t open them.

After exploring this dormitory area without any gains, they could only continue to move forward.

When they reached the end, they encountered another password-protected door.

But this time, Ree Shil’s magic failed.

After breaking the password device, it didn’t open.

Ultimately, it was Straw Man who relied on brute force, kicking it open with one foot.

Another long corridor and spacious hall, but this time there was a significant difference.

This circular hall connected many sealed corridors, and each corridor entrance was marked with text.

Experimental Areas A to E, a total of 5 areas.

And an office area, an entertainment area, and two dormitory areas.

All the doors to other areas except Experiment Area E and the Entertainment District were closed.

And just now, the place they passed through was Dormitory Area B.

Ree Shil: "Next, which area to search."

Mossy Mushroom: "Dormitory Area A."

Straw Man: "Entertainment District, grass."

Ree Shil: "Alright, two options eliminated, umm... then the office area it is."

Mushroom and Grass: "..."x2

After a brief discussion, they decided to head to the office area.

[Woof!]

As a result, they kicked open the corridor door and entered the office area. They hadn’t walked more than a few steps when the Zombie Beast Hound sounded an alarm at the corner ahead.

There were Zombie Beasts ahead.

But they everyone was prepared for this.

Ree Shil: "Little Zombie Beast, you dare block our way."

Straw Man: "Little Zombie Beast, you dare block our way, grass~"

Mossy Mushroom: "It says that there are more than twenty Zombie Beasts in the corridor ahead."

Ree Shil: "There can’t be any living people in the office area. Retreat!"

Straw Man: "Sorry for the intrusion, grass."

More than twenty Zombie Beasts, and all of them could evolve. They couldn’t possibly deal with them all, so they could immediately go to Instance Detention Area and start drawing cards.

Since they couldn’t get through the office area, they had to find another place.

So this time they came to the Entertainment District, which could only be described as barren. freёwebnovel.com

The structure of the Entertainment District was a series of rooms, with different entertainment items inside each room.

There were various fitness equipment, ball games, electronic games, board games, and other things.

After searching for about 10 minutes, they didn’t encounter any Zombie Beasts.

"I mean, these guys are too cowardly. Even if they turned into Zombie Beasts, they still want to stay in the office area? Not a single one here."

Mossy Mushroom felt that the people working in this base seemed to be quite pitiful.

[Woof!]

However, just at this moment, the Zombie Beast Hound came running back from the depths.

"It says there’s a strange thing in the room at the very end."

"A strange thing?"

"Zombie Beast, grass?"

"No, not a Zombie Beast."

"What could it be if it’s not a Zombie Beast?"

This couldn’t help but stir their curiosity.

So everyone hastened their pace and arrived at the room the Zombie Beast Hound had pointed out.

The rooms in the Entertainment District had no doors, so they could clearly see everything inside.

It seemed to be a reading room, with bookshelves lining the walls.

In the middle was a long and wide table, next to which stood an astronaut model.

The model was holding a book with both hands, pretending to read.

"Is this the strange thing you were talking about?"

Mossy Mushroom glanced at the Zombie Beast Hound, then looked at the model and laughed: "Whose taste is this strange, putting a model like this here? Aren’t you afraid of scaring people at night?"

"Wait, something seems off."

Ree Shil frowned.

"It’s moving, grass!"

Straw Man exclaimed.

They saw the astronaut model slowly lift its head, revealing a man’s face inside.

When the man saw Ree Shil and the others, his expression was obviously dazed.

Ree Shil and his companions were also stunned.

Neither side had expected this scenario.

Both sides just stared quietly at each other for a while, but in the end, it was Mossy Mushroom who broke the silence.

"This guy, so ugly."

It unintentionally blurted out its thoughts.

"You’re fucking ugly! Your whole family’s ugly!"

The man snapped back and cursed.

"Huh?"

But he stared at Mossy Mushroom for a while: "Sorry, I was wrong, you’re actually pretty ugly too!"

His expression was slightly joyful, as if he had found a fellow ugly person.

"I feel like this guy might be a Zombie Beast too."

Mossy Mushroom directly took out the Mushroom Gun.

However, it was obvious that the other party wasn’t scared by the toy-like appearance of the gun.

"Alright, stop fooling around."

Ree Shil held back Mossy Mushroom and stepped forward: "Hello, we’re from... the Military District Hospital Research Institute."

"Military District Hospital?"

"Yes."

In the following days, Ree Shil explained the whole story.

The other party also introduced his own experience.

He called himself Dr. Lee, a top instrument operator at this base.

The suit he was wearing wasn’t an astronaut suit, but a protective suit that needed to be worn during experiments.

This type of protective suit had antibacterial and radiation protection functions, so it could naturally isolate the breath.

It was because of this protective suit that he survived the outbreak of the Zombie Beast disaster.

After initially surviving, he only dared to hide in the sealed experiment room. Later, driven by hunger, he ventured out to find food in the Canteen Hall.

However, as soon as he left the experiment room, he encountered a Zombie Beast.

At that time, he was so scared that his legs went weak, but he noticed that the Zombie Beast didn’t attack him at all.

So through one, two, and eventually numerous attempts, he gradually became bolder and started moving around.

After hearing Dr. Lee’s story, Ree Shil felt that apart from the protective suit, there should be another big reason for his survival.

Being ugly.
