Safe House and Accessory Plans!

The next day.

There were still half an hour before class when Su Ze appeared in the classroom.

A few top students had already claimed the front rows and were reading.

The university he attended, Su University, was not considered elite, but it still ranked fairly high nationwide.

Locally in Suzhou City, however, Su University was unquestionably number one.

Overall, it was quite a good school.

But no matter how good a school was, it would always have slackers like Su Ze.

After entering the classroom, Su Ze headed straight for the seats toward the back.

He casually picked a seat, sat down, and took out his phone...

"Now you remember me? I got married last month already, hmph."

"Come send me a rocket in my livestream later, okay? It's been so long since anyone sent one."

"Come see me tonight~ I bought a new cosplay outfit. I can wear it for you~"

His phone displayed one flirtatious reply after another.

They were all women he had gotten intimately acquainted with over the years.

There were respectable women, and there were not-so-respectable ones.

But now, he was no longer particularly interested in any of them.

By his standard of 8.5 points, there were certainly some who qualified.

But once inner qualities such as personality were taken into account, things became rather hard to describe...

He did not reply to any more messages.

Su Ze put down his phone, a thoughtful look appearing on his face.

What he was considering now was how to build a Safe House of his own before Apocalypse's Arrival, as well as... the two accessories for that Safe House.

Setting the Safe House itself aside for now...

The issue of its accessories alone was enough to make Su Ze ponder deeply.

Looking for suitable targets among women he had known before? That plan had just been completely abandoned.

Honestly, rather than choosing Safe House accessories...

It would be more accurate to say he was choosing companions for his journey through the apocalypse.

For all he knew, he might spend the final stretch of his journey in the apocalypse together with one of them.

Thinking of it that way made the whole thing feel much more like a pure romance.

So.

Su Ze wanted to choose girls who were both beautiful and kind-hearted, people who could weather the apocalypse alongside him.

Of course, if they were unwilling to cooperate, Su Ze could only force the issue.

A forcibly twisted melon might not be sweet, but it still quenched thirst.

It was just that...

The problem now was that there was not even a suitable melon. Even if he wanted to force one, he did not know where to start.

"Ze Ge, you're here so early."

Su Ze's train of thought was interrupted.

As class time approached, more and more people gradually entered the classroom.

The two idiots who appeared beside Su Ze were his roommates.

The talkative one was called Wang Zixin, while the relatively quiet one was called Sun Bin...

In yesterday's Doomsday Simulation, both of his roommates had been quite loyal.

They had actually managed to remain unyielding before power.

Across several simulations, he had clashed with Awakened, yet his roommates had not feared the strong and had dared to stand up for him.

That alone was already no easy feat...

Though the human heart was difficult to predict.

Loyalty today did not mean loyalty forever.

Still, at least during the first few dozen days of the apocalypse, these two roommates counted as pretty good friends...

As he thought this.

Su Ze suddenly grew curious. He stared at Wang Zixin beside him and silently activated Father God's Listening, attempting to hear the other man's thoughts...

Damn it, I should've rushed to level three that match, then invaded their red buff...

Very good.

Truly a simple-minded gaming youth.

"Ze Ge, why are you staring at me?"

Noticing Su Ze's gaze, Wang Zixin began clowning around. He pretended to be a shy woman and said in a pinched voice, "If it's Senior Su Ze, it's okay to put all of it inside me."

Su Ze said, "Get the hell out of here."

As they joked around, Su Ze suddenly became interested and continued focusing his attention, trying to eavesdrop on the thoughts of other classmates...

Is Su Ze looking at me? I knew he liked the twin ponytails I wore today...

One more look and I'll explode...

I run a brothel in international waters. There's no reason that should be illegal...

The talent was very useful, but when using it, it was best not to stare directly at people.

It made him look rather stupid, and it could easily make the other person sense that something was off.

After trying it out on a round of people, Su Ze silently withdrew his gaze.

He began considering the Safe House again...

He would set aside the Safe House accessories for now.

First, he should consider the Safe House's location.

Yesterday's simulation had given him a very clear understanding of the division between Safe Zones and Contamination Zones around the school.

Logically speaking, he should naturally build his Safe House in a Safe Zone.

But a Contamination Zone was not entirely out of the question.

As long as he understood the threats in certain Contamination Zones, he could move about within them in relative safety.

Just like his current residence...

After Apocalypse's Arrival, it would also fall within the range of a Contamination Zone.

But the main threat there was the Mirror World.

As long as he avoided that danger and did not come into contact with the Pollution Source, he could achieve the greatest possible degree of safety.

Of course, there would never be absolute safety as long as he stayed in a Contamination Zone.

A deadly nightmare could appear at any moment.

But Su Ze had the Fallen Gift talent as a safety net.

Even if he failed to survive a nightmare, he could still rely on one layer of Healing Energy to make a Complete Retreat...

"There's no need to put all the eggs in one basket. I should pick several locations. They might come in handy someday."

There were only a few days left before the world changed drastically.

Naturally, there was no time to build a massive apocalypse base now.

His funds would not allow it, either.

So he could only pick a few places on the map, then rent houses.

The houses did not need to be particularly good. They only needed to store supplies.

After all, yesterday's simulation had already proven how scarce supplies would become.

Especially after fifty days, when Awakened would fight fiercely just to seize supplies.

Therefore, sufficient supplies were the core component of a Safe House...

As for security...

This was where the advantage of placing a Safe House in a Contamination Zone came in.

Especially within Contamination Zones occupied by powerful monsters, even Awakened would not dare attempt to enter.

If supplies were stored inside a Contamination Zone, there was basically no need to worry about others finding them.

And as long as he drew a decent talent, perhaps he could stay in a Contamination Zone without taking any damage.

It was just that the nightmares that appeared from time to time were rather annoying, constantly consuming Healing Energy.

"These places, then. I'll go take a look at the actual conditions today before making a decision."

By the end of class, Su Ze had more or less finished selecting possible Safe House locations.

Taking advantage of the crowd leaving after class, Su Ze returned to the dormitory.

He did not usually live in the dorms, but he occasionally stayed overnight, so his dorm bed had always been kept for him.

There was even a high-end computer on his desk.

It made it convenient for him to game with his classmates whenever he was in the dorm...

"Ze Ge, did you see the messages in the class group?"

"I heard the class rep already arranged it. We're having a mixer this week, and our class is even going on a picnic!"

The moment Su Ze sat down, Wang Zixin came over with his phone, looking thoroughly excited.

A mixer?

Su Ze said nothing, thinking, Could there be a girl I haven't met yet in the other class...
