After eating and wasting some time, I decided to head back and continue clearing the lower floors.
Before unblocking the second floor, I double-checked to make sure I had blocked every elevator on the previous floors.
The second floor consisted of normal rooms, nothing special.
I proceeded to clean it out, killing an additional 32 zombies, gaining experience, and leveling up again.
I didn't find any survivors, but I did manage to collect more than 230 tons of atoms.
Feeling that my attacks were still cking power, I allocated all my attribute points to strength.
By the time I finished clearing the floor, it was already 4 PM.
I went down to block the first floor, then headed to the rooftop for a swim.
After an hour, I returned to my room, ate while listening to music, and went to sleep.
When I woke up, I went to the pool for a swim.
After that, I had breakfast, then headed down to the second floor.
I dismantled the blockage at the first floor and took a peek inside. It looked like the reception area.
I set up my first line of defense, then went out to hunt zombies.
In one go, I managed to kill 45. Most of them seemed to have wandered in from outside.
After leveling up, I distributed my attribute points between Strength and Agility. I could feel the heat of exertion, but at the same time, my body felt refreshed.
Next, I blocked off the hotel's front entrance.
I began checking every room—offices, security rooms, anything that might be useful.
To my surprise, I encountered and killed eight more zombies.
But I didn’t find a single human.
It seemed like I was the only one left in this hotel.
I finished cleaning up the hotel and went to the entrance door to peek outside.
There were still zombies roaming around.
Checking the time, I realized it was already lunchtime.
I went back to my room and ate.
By 1 PM, I was back at the entrance.
My goal was to reach level 10 before leaving this pce.
I set up a defense outside the door and stationed myself there.
'It felt like I was the one selling pirated DVDs or CDs on the street back in the day. Though, in reality, I was just a buyer.'
Before I knew it, four hours had passed.
Of course, I wasn't fighting the entire time—most of it was just waiting.
In total, I killed 146 zombies and leveled up again.
I allocated all my attribute points to strength.
Looking at the pile of corpses, I thought to myself:
'Let's just leave them there for now.'
I decided to take a bath.
While bathing, I checked the progress of my converter and my total energy.
>Heat and Atom Converter: (600,000 per day)
>Energy: 1,480,700;
It looks like I’ll be able to upgrade the [Decompose] skill tomorrow.
After finishing my bath, I went back to my room.
I cooked a meal and ate something to fill my stomach.
After that, I fell asleep.
The next day, when I woke up:
>Ding!
-600 tons of atom converted to +600,000 energy.
>Ding!
Host can upgrade the [Decompose] skill. Would you like to upgrade?
'Yes.'
>Ding!
-2,000,000 energy deducted for upgrading [Decompose] skill in 3... 2... 1...
>Upgrade Choices:
?Ability
?Attributes
?Bloodlines
?Body Disassemble;
'Ability is my main target. Attributes aren’t really necessary right now since I can level up easily.
Bloodlines… it’s not like I want to become a zombie.
As for the st option, I’m not cking food, and I definitely don’t want to eat zombie meat.
I choose Ability.'
>Ding!
[Decompose] skill has been upgraded.
'Let's take a bath first, then start using [Decompose] on the corpses from the 7th floor.'
After cleaning up, I made my way to the 7th floor, where I had piled up the zombie corpses.
Looking at the decaying bodies, I wasn't sure if I was just getting used to it or if I was too excited, but the stench didn’t seem to bother me anymore.
'If I’m not mistaken, it’s been almost six days… or maybe exactly six days? I can’t really remember when I came to this world.
Who cares? Let’s try out this upgraded skill.'
>Ding!
Gained [Infection] ability (lv1).

>Ding!

>Ding!
