Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 129: Protective Clothing

Chapter 129

The first step was to wholeheartedly support Big Sister's decisions.

Then, he needed to perform well during the movie filming and strive to win the Best Supporting Actor award!

The Black-Clothed Ghost clenched his fist excitedly, feeling full of motivation.

The Director was very satisfied with the Black-Clothed Ghost. He had a character in his movie whose expected image was very similar to the Black-Clothed Ghost.

Gu Wanyin patted the Black-Clothed Ghost's shoulder and instructed, "Do your best!"

"Yes, Big Sister!"

Soon, the Director selected a few more ghost actors and happily took them to the studio for screen tests.

In the end, three were chosen, with the Black-Clothed Ghost being one of them.

The human actors had been selected long ago.

Bai Shuwen didn't particularly like acting in horror movies, and his schedule conflicted, so he had previously declined the Director's invitation.

Therefore, the male lead was a minor actor who had starred in web dramas before the apocalypse, and the female lead had just entered the entertainment industry shortly before the apocalypse, without much fame.

But the Director said their acting skills were quite good and that they would definitely improve with a bit of practice.

The other human supporting roles were all complete newcomers who had never been in the entertainment industry before.

However, after the screen tests, the Director felt they had potential and decided to keep them all.

The Director even passionately invited Gu Wanyin for a cameo appearance.

But Gu Wanyin politely declined.

She really had no interest in acting and was also worried that her lack of experience would delay their filming progress.

However, because the Black-Clothed Ghost was there, she would occasionally come to the studio to take a look.

Almost every time she came, she would see the Black-Clothed Ghost being scolded by the Director, looking dejected.

Actually, the Director was quite gentle at first, patiently explaining the scenes, the script, and teaching him how to act.

Later, probably because he was so frustrated, he couldn't help but reprimand him a few times.

The Black-Clothed Ghost looked pitiful, and as soon as he saw Gu Wanyin arrive, he immediately ran over to complain.

"Big Sister, I really acted according to his requirements, I don't know why it turned out like this!"

"It's okay, take it slow," Gu Wanyin comforted him.

The current Black-Clothed Ghost was completely different from when they first met... no, it was like two different ghosts.

Gu Wanyin also found it strange. Wasn't the Black-Clothed Ghost fine during the screen test? Why couldn't he perform well during the actual filming?

After watching for a while, she finally understood what was going on.

The Black-Clothed Ghost was very relaxed during the screen test.

But once the official filming started, he became nervous and extremely afraid of not performing well.

Actually, his acting skills were quite good, but because he wanted to perform well so badly, his acting became exaggerated and too theatrical.

Even Gu Wanyin frowned watching him, so there was no way the Director could be satisfied.

After a scene was finished, the Black-Clothed Ghost would run to Gu Wanyin and crouch in front of her, looking at her pitifully.

"I see what's going on. You're just too nervous, that's why you're not acting well. How about this: don't think of it as filming. Remember how you used to scare people in the horror world's missions? Just pretend you're in a horror mission now, and it should be much better."

After hearing her words, the Black-Clothed Ghost seemed to understand something. He nodded silently and then ran off to a corner to ponder by himself.

When they filmed again after a while, the Black-Clothed Ghost's performance indeed improved significantly, and the Director kept nodding and praising him.

Gu Wanyin knew it should be fine now. After a few more scenes, the Black-Clothed Ghost should be able to fully adapt.

Leaving the studio, Gu Wanyin planned to go work out.

After arriving at the gym, she suddenly thought of something and asked the system in her mind: "System, now that so many buildings in the hotel have been unlocked, there are more and more guests, and the facilities are becoming more complete. What will happen in the future when all the zombies in this world are killed? What will guests use to exchange for points?"

Although the number of zombies was still huge, the superpower potions had been invented, and people's enthusiasm for killing zombies was very high. At this rate, it was only a matter of time before the zombies were completely cleared out.

"When all the zombies are killed, and other things that can be exchanged for points are almost gone, your management mission in this apocalyptic world will be completed, host. At that time, the Interstellar will help the humans in this world rebuild their homes and restore the prosperity and various orders from before the apocalypse. Of course, the Interstellar will only play an auxiliary role, helping to eliminate natural disasters and such, but most of it will still depend on the efforts of the humans in this world."

"I see." Gu Wanyin nodded.

Now people knew to work hard to kill zombies and not let themselves become useless. When it came time to rebuild their homes, they would certainly work even harder.

"Wait, what about me?" Gu Wanyin realized she had overlooked a very important question. "Where will I go then?"

"You'll have many choices, host. You can choose to stay in this world, and all the benefits this system has given you will still exist. You can also choose to go to other worlds for fun, and you can even bring your family and friends along."

Gu Wanyin nodded in understanding. "Not bad. What about you? Will you go bind with other hosts?"

After all, they had been together for so long. If the system really had to go bind with other hosts, Gu Wanyin would feel a bit upset.

But if it was the Interstellar's regulations, she couldn't let the system violate the rules for her sake, sigh.

"Hehe, well, that's a secret for now."

"System, you're keeping secrets from me now. I'm sad."

...

Two months later, Zhuang Xiaoxia and other researchers, using the barrier fragments Gu Wanyin brought back from the demon realm and some other materials, developed a special protective shield material.

This material could be used to make a special protective clothing.

When people went out to kill zombies wearing this protective clothing, it could resist some zombie attacks.

This greatly improved safety.

Gu Wanyin recruited some guests who knew how to make clothes in the hotel, set up some small workshops, gave them some points every month, and had them mass-produce protective clothing.

The protective clothing was also sold in the hotel, two thousand points per set, available in various sizes.

Not only was it sold in the hotel, but it was also sold to the survival bases. In no time, they earned a lot of points.

After some time, the Peace Hotel established cooperation with bases all over the world.

People who could come to the hotel would choose to stay here.

After all, the hotel was absolutely safe, with complete facilities for food, drink, entertainment, and other amenities. The hotel buildings were also constantly increasing.

Because Gu Wanyin had already completed all the tasks in the system's task list, as long as the hotel buildings were full, a new building would immediately appear.

For those who were too far away to come to the hotel, they could purchase Peace Hotel supplies at local bases.

They could buy some food, weapons, superpower potions, protective clothing, and so on.

People kept killing zombies, taking Crystal Cores, and exchanging them for points.

At this rate, killing all the zombies was just around the corner.

By then, people would be able to rebuild their homes.

...

Having earned so many points, the system was originally very happy, but when it returned from a trip to the Interstellar and came back, Gu Wanyin noticed that it seemed a bit off.

"Did something happen?"

"Host, this is really bad now, let me tell you..."

Before the system could finish speaking, suddenly there was a buzzing electrical noise.

And Gu Wanyin's head started to throb painfully.

She held her head, but didn't forget to call out in her mind: "System? System, what's wrong? Are you okay?"

Amidst the buzzing electrical noise, there seemed to be the system's faint voice: "Host... help..."

"System!"

After a while, the buzzing electrical noise disappeared, and Gu Wanyin's head stopped hurting.

But the system's voice never responded.

Gu Wanyin kept trying to call out to the system in her mind.

Just then, suddenly, a completely unfamiliar voice sounded.

"Ding! Greetings, esteemed host. I am the system, number 066."

(The extra chapter can be skipped, you can go directly to the second volume, a new apocalyptic management story, with the same female lead and system. Whispering that actually the extra chapter is quite good too...)
