Millennium: I Love Demon King

Lin Xin didn't sleep very well that night. She could hear screams from both far away and near. In the early hours of the morning, the metal door below her was shaking noisily. At first, she was worried that the zombies downstairs would climb up to the window, but very soon, there was a scream from a woman downstairs.

She didn't dare to sleep too deeply. The clean steel pipe was placed beside her bed. While she was still in a daze, she regretted that she should have followed suit to reinforce the door and windows. She had forgotten about the incident that had frightened her the other day.

Meanwhile, Gu Cheng was also busy absorbing the cores in the space. He had to make haste and expand the space by at least ten times. After three months of hard work, the original fifty square meters space had now expanded to three hundred square meters. It was piled high with supplies, and the ones that couldn't be put aside were all piled up in this three bedrooms and one hall at a distance of one hundred and thirty square meters.

He did not intentionally block the movements in the outside world. The earlier Lin Xin realized the cruelty of the apocalypse, the better it would be for her to live on in the future. On the sixth floor, there was a couple. The husband was bitten on his way home, so he hid his wife and had dinner with her together. In the end, the virus incubation period passed, and the wife who woke up from her sleep stumbled to the door, but no matter what, she couldn't open the iron door. Gu Cheng felt that the sound of the husband eating his food was just too loud, which was why he had set up a mental barrier on the seventh floor. Only then did Lin Xin not hear the crunching sound of bones in her sleep.

The biological clock woke her at six the next day. Lin Xin walked up to the balcony. She couldn't run at a jog, so there were many zombies wandering around. There were blood and flesh everywhere. She wanted to puke, but she couldn't. She lost her appetite for breakfast. After standing there for a while, the sky turned completely bright. However, there were still many brightly lit rooms in the opposite building. Lin Xin suddenly realized that the lights hadn't been turned off all night either because there were no longer people in the room who had turned off the lights. She counted the residents across the street with their lights on, and at eight o'clock she counted again. There were more than sixty families, and less than a quarter of them were alive.

Is this the apocalypse? What about the future? She was somewhat dispirited as she lay on the railing. Suddenly, she saw someone waving a red silk scarf in the window on the fourth floor. Lin Xin pointed at her and that person nodded his head vigorously before disappearing from the window. After a while, the man reappeared with a large sheet of white paper in both hands. Two large words were written on it: Help!

Lin Xin was a bit stunned. She was just a weak woman. Wasn't she overestimating herself? She pointed at the tens of zombies wandering between the two buildings and made a gesture of a shrug, indicating that there was nothing she could do.

The other person turned around and went back to writing. Half a minute later, he was holding up another piece of white paper: I saw you yesterday! Finally, he put on the first sheet of white paper: Help!

Lin Xin originally didn't want to care about her anymore, but in the end, she went back to her room to find an old newspaper.

That person looked and went back to draw big words. After coming back for a while, Lin Xin was so angry that she laughed: I'm afraid, I don't dare! Please!

If Lin Xin was a Superman, then Batman would be fine. But if she could protect herself, then that would be a problem. How could she have the ability to save others? Once again, she waved a hand at the man in refusal, and without looking at him, she drew the curtains and hid in the living room. At this time, she was hungry. She took out the tiger skin cake she had received yesterday and finished the late breakfast with the yogurt. The current food can only last for a month. Water! She suddenly thought of those lights that had been burning all night. The summer was supposed to be the peak season for electricity, and their district would have one or two times a month for electricity cuts. Although the outside world was just starting to become chaotic, there was no guarantee that the electricity would be cut off any time soon. The bus didn't arrive this morning at 8 am, so there was probably no one left to think about going to work.

Thinking of this, she quickly filled all the pots and pans in the house with water, and the bathtub in the bathroom was also full. After busying herself for a while, she started to sweat, so she took off her clothes and began to shower. Initially, he had wanted to be a gentleman to collect his spiritual force, but he had been reluctant to part with this sudden blessing. His rather honey-colored face turned slightly red, and he felt his nose grow hot as he extended a hand to wipe away some of the blood. He quickly withdrew his spiritual force, and after calming his mind for a long time, he started to absorb the crystal core again. However, that beautiful image seemed to have been engraved deeply into his mind. If he wasn't careful, he would think of that scene again.

Looks like I won't be able to practice it today. Gu Cheng had no choice but to give up. When he rechecked Lin Xin's movements, she was currently changing into the sports attire he had intentionally left behind in her hand, looking like she was about to leave. Ye Zichen hurriedly blocked the sound from coming out of her room before she came out, and stood right outside her door.

She had just gone to the bakery last night. Was she going to the building across the street? Gu Cheng didn't feel that this person had any reason to help him. However, since she was the one who wanted to help him, he would definitely help her. Contrary to his expectations, Lin Xin didn't head for the safe passage. She hid by the elevator door and pressed the button to go down.

He had already checked inside the elevator, there were a total of four zombies. Originally there were five of them, but after falling asleep, the one that didn't wake up had become the other four's food. The four of them who had tasted the fresh flesh were now much more nimble than the few she had encountered yesterday. Gu Cheng worriedly stood behind her as the numbers of the elevator slowly ticked. Finally, with a ding sound, the elevator doors slowly opened, releasing a strong stench of blood and rot.

The four zombies quickly sensed the presence of a stranger, but their movements were clumsy. When they tried to squeeze out of the room, they were blocked. Lin Xin took advantage of this opportunity and aimed at the nearest temple and forcefully stabbed it. He didn't expect that the thrust would be so forceful. The steel pipe pierced through and killed the other two with one arrow and two eagles. Unfortunately, the steel pipe could not be pulled out because of this. The two people behind pushed their way towards Lin Xin. Seeing their foul-smelling fangs coming closer and closer to her, she turned her face to the side in despair. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw another steel tube standing not even an inch away from her.

There was no room for it. She held the cold steel pipe in one hand and stepped back and stabbed it into the eye with all her strength. The steel pipe that had been stuck in her left hand was easily pulled out when she moved it down. She originally thought that she didn't have any strength left, but when the last one pounced at her, her two hands seemed to have their own consciousness, two steel tubes pierced into its left and right eyes, its ferocious mouth was wide open, and the zombie's life was cut off in a flash, and it fell to the ground dead.

After the adrenaline wore off, Lin Xin's legs went soft and she rested by the door for a while. It took a moment before she had the strength to pull back her gear. She looked suspiciously at the object in her hand, then at the place where it had appeared. She remembered clearly that there had been no such object at the edge of the elevator. Last night wasn't the only night when they were planning on cleaning up. Lin Xin carefully examined this corridor.

The only explanation would be the one who cared for her, Ah Piao. Lin Xin felt her back go cold and gave up on the idea of dragging zombies into the elevator. She originally planned to go to the underground parking lot to try her luck at finding a car that could drive. Now, she only wanted to go home.

Lin Xin ran back to her house as if she were running for her life and locked the door. She cooked a huge pot of rice, mixed it with her mother's food and vegetables to comfort herself. The hot rice warmed her stomach and soothed her frightened soul.

Because she didn't sleep well that night, she fell asleep on the sofa after eating her fill. More than an hour later, he was awakened by the screams of the building across the street. When she went out to take a look, it was the house that she had asked for help in the morning, because her balcony door was open and the four men had no idea how they got in. When Lin Xin saw them, she was already covered up by their hands and feet, while the other one was moving up and down her body. Sensing her gaze, the man lifted his head and gave her a perverted look. He said something unknown, but the other three also turned their faces towards her and gave her a meaningful smile.

Lin Xin felt a wave of nausea and the lunch that she ate was quickly emptied. There was only a shrill scream. When she raised her head, all four of them had fallen. After a moment, blood slowly flowed out from the sofa.

The scream came from the woman. Soon, Lin Xin heard someone yell at her to shut up, be careful not to attract monsters … The woman ignored him and screamed for a long time before calming down. She pulled the curtains to the living room. Upon discovering Lin Xin, she coldly laughed. Her cold eyes made Lin Xin shudder for no reason.

Although Gu Cheng's heart was slightly softer towards women, having seen so much of the dark and gloomy of the apocalypse, he did not hesitate to activate his spiritual force to take her life when he saw that gaze.

In fact, his judgement was quite accurate. In his previous life, when Lin Xin came to pick up the survivors, she was remembered by Ji Fei as having found a chance to sell a bag of flour at a low price to a passing caravan. Lin Xin was quickly driven mad by the repeat of her nightmare. With this move, Gu Cheng had subtly taken back another debt for Lin Xin in his previous life.

In his previous life, Lin Xin had never mentioned this nightmare to him. Neither of them knew that there was going to be a hidden danger in the future. Like this, she quietly disappeared. For the next few days, Lin Xin didn't try to go out because the television had already shown that the troops from each region would arrive at H City in a few days. The announcement also reminded survivors that they had better be able to equip themselves with vehicles, as the location of the troops' trucks was limited.

Not long after the announcement was made, Lin Xin heard the survivors downstairs all start to move. For the first time, the silent neighborhood was alive, and people were excited about the coming of the army. There were more and more people working together to search for zombies. Lin Xin didn't join in the fun. She simply packed her luggage and gathered up all the food. She guessed that when the time came, all the food would be collected and it would be a waste to stay in the house. Still, she was careful to keep all the candies and chocolates scattered and hidden in the pockets of each garment. These high-calorie items were small and easy to hide, but they could still be stored in case of need.

Because Lin Xin had been training her body for the past few months, she never thought to prepare medicine. The only box of cold medicine in her house even expired. Since everyone was out fighting zombies, she decided to go out and try her luck. Without exception, Gu Cheng, who was worried about her, followed her once again. On the way, Lin Xin also met two families on the third floor and the sixth floor. On the way, Lin Xin met two families on the third floor and the sixth floor. Both families had children, one more than a year old, the other more than two and a half years old, and she often saw the children's grandparents take them for a walk while jogging, getting familiar with them as they came and went.

Lin Xin didn't know how they managed to keep their children from making a ruckus. It had to be said that these monsters were quite sensitive to smell and sound. She needed to go to the supermarket to replenish her stock. She also remembered that there was a small pharmacy beside the supermarket, so she could go and get some cold medicine and anti-inflammatory medicine. The few of them became one, the grandparents of the two families stayed at home to take care of the kids, while the adults went to the supermarket with Lin Xin.

On the way, they met people from the building next door. Because the residential complex had a group of owners, these aboriginals knew each other very well. Therefore, when she introduced herself, she slightly nodded her head and did not say much. However, there was a mocking expression in the other party's eyes. She should have known that in such a small place like City H, just a little bit of it would be known to everyone. However, because Lin Xin had left such a deep impression on these people who were sticking close to the window to spy on her, many people only thought of preparing more food when they saw her come back with a big bag full of stuff. However, there weren't many bold ones, and the family wasn't short on food and drinks. There were only a few who would go out and take risks like her. This time, there were so many people who went out to search, but they were all beaten up by the troops who took over this jar of chicken blood.

When Lin Xin and co. arrived at the supermarket, there were already a lot of people inside. She looked at the empty shelf of her aunt's towel and decided to go to the pharmacy first. After bidding farewell to the people on the third and sixth floors, she gripped the steel pipe tightly and searched through her memories. She was disappointed to find that the door to the pharmacy was open and the things inside were all messed up.

Fortunately, the person in front of her didn't notice that there was a black bag at the far end of the counter. She stretched out her hand and opened it, only to find that there were eight boxes of anti-inflammatory drugs, several Meilin bottles, and some fever stickers for children. Lin Xin kept a box of everything and then took off the packaging and put it into her bag, not adding much weight to it.

On the way back to the supermarket, she bumped into two zombies. With her previous experience, she wasn't afraid at all. She was able to take care of the two clumsily moving zombies. Gu Cheng smiled as he watched from behind, inexplicably feeling gratified that his daughter had just matured. However, the family next door to Lin Xin didn't think that way. When the middle-aged woman named Hu saw the dripping blood in her hand, she screamed. Luckily, her husband reacted quickly and used his hand to cover her mouth.

"You're scaring me to death. The little girl saw that the one that attacked me was a pretty and pretty girl, so she attacked me so viciously. Stay away from me, you're so far away from me."

The other two families smiled awkwardly. Miss He on the third floor told her that most of the stuff inside had been taken away by someone. They planned to get a car, look for a distant supermarket, and ask if she needed anything.

Lin Xin looked at her. The two families knew her weakness. Usually, the person talking to her was the mistress. Lin Xin then asked if they needed to prepare some anti-inflammatory drugs and some antipyretic drugs for their children. Miss He's family said that they still had some at home, and Miss Ma on the sixth floor asked for two boxes of antipyretic drugs.

Lin Xin immediately opened her bag and gave her two boxes of antipyretic drugs. At this time, the Hu family's middle-aged woman came over and tried to grab the things in her bag, while the others looked at her with stunned expressions. They all knew each other and knew each other quite well, Big Sis Hu lived with her husband in the middle corridor, their son had already gone to university, so they didn't need any of their child's antipyretic drugs. Besides, her husband was in the hospital, and there were plenty of medicines prepared in the house.

It wasn't as if Lin Xin had never seen someone who wanted to take advantage of her even when she got a discount like Big Sis Hu, but this was her first time seeing someone as shameless as her. Lin Xin took two steps back and easily dodged her hand. She didn't even look at her as she bid farewell to the two families. From afar, he could still hear Big Sis Hu swearing. By the side, her husband couldn't help but shout at her to stop. He wanted to die so he shouted out a bit louder.

Lin Xin coldly walked back and suddenly stopped when she passed by a signboard. The roller shutter door wasn't completely locked yet. She looked at the message for a full minute and finally decided to use steel pipe to open the door. The moment the roller shutter door was picked up and rolled up, a rotten smell hit her face. She took a cautious step back, and when the roller shutter door was rolled up, a black shadow suddenly flew towards her. Thanks to these three months of training, in the face of danger, her brain didn't even have the time to issue a command, and her body's muscle memory already enabled her to nimbly dodge to the right, barely dodging the enemy's attack.

When the attack failed, it let out a frustrated roar like a human, turned around, and attacked Lin Xin again. Only then did she realize that the person who kept attacking her was not some other monster. It was already a courier boy while alive, and he was wearing a company's cultural shirt. It had long been covered in blood. But unlike its brethren, it was more agile and faster.

Gu Cheng didn't expect the Level 1 Variant Zombie to appear so early. While paying attention to Lin Xin, he also split up his spiritual force to scout the situation inside. There were a total of twelve people, all bitten to pieces. No wonder he could advance so quickly!

Lin Xin struggled to dodge the colossal zombie's attack. Even after several attempts, she was still unable to catch the cunning prey, so the zombie was clearly anxious. At this moment, Lin Xin deliberately slowed its movements to trick it into coming closer. Grabbing the opportunity, she kicked it, and immediately followed up with a steel pipe nailing it to the ground. At this time, more and more people came from the hiding place and approached to confirm that the thing was completely dead. Only then did they rush in to snatch the bag. Lin Xin looked at the pile of parcels unwillingly. Since she couldn't squeeze together with them, she could only give up and return home.

Gu Cheng had originally not been interested in this pile of things, but looking at the cute expression on her face, he had suddenly been in high spirits and casually placed a bunch of bags into his space. Now that he had absorbed all the crystals, the space had expanded by more than a thousand square meters, and all kinds of materials were arranged neatly. As soon as he thought about what he wanted, he came out on his own.

When Lin Xin returned home, Gu Cheng didn't even glance at the contents of the bags as he placed them all by her door. The seventh floor was shielded by his spirit energy, so unless he intentionally let them through, no zombies or humans would be able to reach it. He was not worried that someone else would take the item away. It was just a matter of time before the owner found the gift. Sure enough, it wasn't even night yet when Lin Xin noticed the bags at the entrance.

She had wondered if it had been sent to her by someone else at the time, but it seemed unlikely to her that there were at least twenty packages. In the end, she decided to accept this mysterious gift. She looked through each and every one of the package addresses, none of them from H City. They were probably left behind at the transition station, but unfortunately, they were unable to deliver them to their destinations.

She took out a small knife and unwrapped them one by one. There were local specialties, snacks, and children's toys. The largest package she opened just happened to have the powdered milk needed for the sixth and third floor. She wasn't sure how much milk powder the children in her family should take, or whether she should ask them about it before she made any arrangements. In the end, she got a pair of thirty-seven yards of sneakers, which was her size; a box of mangoes, which was mostly rotten; and a few detective stories, which were just enough for entertainment.

The internet had been shut down and the water had stopped running at around 3 in the afternoon. Fortunately, she was prepared for this. The open and cold water was enough to last her for half a month. Originally, she had wanted to go out to get more mineral water. Since there were still three days until the arrival of the army, it was always good to make some preparations. In the end, she saw the surprise in front of the door. It couldn't be said to be a complete surprise. When she unwrapped one of the anonymous bags, she jumped in fright. In her flustered state, she accidentally pressed a switch, and the thing started buzzing on the floor.

Lin Xin's face paled. She didn't think of what she would use to get that fake resin fella out. With a pu sound, that thing disappeared into thin air. If she wasn't so sure that her eyesight was normal, she would have believed that she was hallucinating. After the strange events of the past few days, as well as the feeling of being watched by others, Lin Xin sat silently on the floor for a long time before getting up.

Whatever it was, the only thing that was certain was that for the time being, at least, he meant no harm except for the last prank.

On the other side, Gu Cheng was looking with regret at the thing that was arrogantly flaunting its might. A hammer suddenly emerged from his originally empty right hand, smashing it into pieces with a few blows.

That night, the two of them had a tacit understanding. They both lost sleep.
