Chapitre 28: Final Hour
[01:39:02]
In sharp contrast to, well, everybody else, Althea and her group settled down in the nearest luxury hotel.
It took them quite a fight with a few more upgraded zombies, but they got out of it unharmed.
Althea also used this time to train both Fufi and Sheila, so except for the most troublesome upgraded zombies, all the others were dealt with by the two.
At first, the nurse was very scared. She also didn't have very good body coordination either, so she missed too many shots and got almost-bitten too many times.
So even when she was covered with goo, it was still not easy for her to deal with normal zombies, let alone fight an upgraded one.
However, hearing Althea's voice beside her let her gather some courage to take that brave step.
Sheila did not realize her timid personality was slowly undergoing a subtle change.
And the further they stepped closer to the hotel, the more stable this change became.
The hotel was called Niana Hotel, a five-star hotel very popular in the city. It was a very expensive and luxurious building, and it gave prestige to those who used it. It was the type that was fully booked until at least a week later.
They chose this place not only because of the estimated quality of the products but also due to its exclusivity. There should be a lot fewer zombies inside than others.
Sure enough, when they entered, they realized they had a much easier time inside the hotel.
After dealing with the zombies, they decided to go to the hotel's back-of-house and fill up the remaining spaces and the hand-carry bags they had.
They went to the housekeeping and laundry facilities and took cleaning equipment, sewing kits, linens, duvets, and towers.
Of course, they also gathered more hygiene products. Mostly for Sheila, some stocks, and the bags though, because Althea had her favorite brand—her own WittBeauty—packed in her own space.
They also went to the storage and receiving rooms where food and beverages were stored. Luxury hotels often stockpile non-perishable food items in their storage areas. They managed to find a mountain of canned goods, dried food, snacks, bottled water, and others. They chose the ones they liked most due to their limited space.
They took a set of hybrid-powered radio equipment used by the staff as well, just in case.
There were also first-aid kits and medical supplies. However, their space was limited so they could only get a bit of bandages, antiseptics, and basic medications. Besides, Sheila also agreed that these things may no longer work well for their changed bodies.
After this round, the girls finally filled up all the empty space they had on hand.
The two girls and a dog went to the elevator after taking a card from the reception desk, choosing the largest suite room on the penthouse floor, just because.
Who knows what kind of place that Other World was? They ought to enjoy these luxuries while they could.
The suite welcomed guests with a shared intricately-designed living area and kitchenette. Overall, the shared space was no less than 100 square meters in area.
There were doors to the two deluxe rooms with their own premium bathrooms and lounge. What's more, each room was complete with its own entertainment facilities, jacuzzi, and the like.
Sheila couldn't help but feel emotional. She had dreamed of staying in this type of room after seeing an internet influencer brag about it, but she didn't think she'd experience it in this circumstance.
Althea's thoughts, on the other hand, were going in a very different direction. Her eyes couldn't help but stay on the time counter floating in front of her.
As they reached the final hour, she couldn't help but recall the number of those zombies, and the number of survivors still alive.
She knew the initial transformation had to do with genes, and not too much on physical fitness. After all, she saw bodybuilding ordinary zombies, but the meek Sheila as a survivor.
Still, she wondered how many really survived in the end?
The planet had 16 Billion people. Her city was small but it still had at least a million population. How many people had she encountered so far?
How were her family and friends? Did they survive the first wave? What about now?
She shook her head, not thinking about it anymore.
The final hour was for relaxation. They didn't know what would happen in that Other World, they ought to get some proper rest.
"Use that room and clean yourself up," She said, giving Sheila the duffel bag that had been in the motorcycle the whole time.
It had two sets of clothing change for each gender as well as some other basic supplies. Not to mention, the hotel had its own supplies so they were sure to be able to clean up well.
Althea and Fufi went into one of the rooms. She cleaned Fufi up well first, then they showered together for a basic rinse, making sure that the disgusting goo had been washed off their bodies.
Then, using the advanced hairdryer, she quickly fixed him up, happily pushing him out of the bathroom afterward for her own moment of respite.
Fufi: ???
Now alone and without a dog, Althea pampered herself well. She took a long bubble bath and scrubbed herself in every nook and cranny of her smelly body.
Who knew when would be the next time she would get such rest?
As she sighed in happiness, patting her stomach in relaxation, she finally took time to study her own status.
