Chapter 30 Daily Exercise Is The Key To Success In Life!
"So we crossed this bridge. What next?"
I pondered over it for a few moments before speaking,"let's take a break for now. Replenish our energy and then move to the lower floors later. Maybe tomorrow."
My eyes then saw the light dimming and everything turning dark again slowly. Even though it was a couple of hours before the night, it had already turned quite dark.
Because last night, I was in my apartment, where we had some back up inverter battery, I didn't notice, but without any electricity, we might have a lot of problems at night with anything barely visible.
"I too think that is the right choice. It's getting too creepy with no light during the night," spoke Alex as he looked at me with a slightly scared face and I patted his head and then decided to choose the most corner apartment to take a rest in.
We then placed a bunch of things in between the hallway that would act as an alarm in case something or someone moves in and then silently closed the last door before all of us entered the room.
"White and Alex can sleep in the master bedroom, while Christine, you take care of the baby and sleep in the other room. I would be taking care of things during the night, then sleep a bit in the early morning. Later around noon, we will continue downwards," I explained, and the other nodded except Caroline, who spoke out,
"But I had already slept. I can stay awake for a long time-"
"It's okay. Just take care of the baby and take a rest. If I wasn't capable of handling it, I wouldn't have even mentioned it," I cut her off and she just bit her lower lip a little before nodding.
Everyone then moved to their respective rooms and went to sleep while I stretched a little before proceeding to do a few sit ups…
[1/1000 Sit ups]
[19/1000 Sit ups]
[240/1000 Sit ups]
[789/1000 Sit ups]
[1000/1000 Sit ups]
[Ding!]
[+500 Exp]
I looked at the time and it has already been 3 hours since I started doing the sit-ups. Even though I took some breaks in between, for some reason, I don't think I was as tired as I thought I would be.
In fact, I was more refreshed than before.
After that I proceeded to do some pushups and pullups, which took about 5 hours in total and I was really exhausted by the end of the exercise…
[+500 Exp!]
[+500 Exp!]
I wanted to run those 100 miles, but because of all the things we had placed in the hallway, it was really difficult to move about through that, forget about running. Also, there was the danger of any zombie coming from the other side, so going up a floor to run wasn't really a good option, either.
"What is on your mind, kiddo?" I heard a voice from behind and saw White looking at me. Facing against the dim moonlight, he stood there watching me as he leaned against the door.
"Was wondering if I could run a little and build up a little stamina," I spoke nonchalantly and he chuckled a little before speaking,"want me to take over? I have already slept enough."
"You will? Thanks, that would be a lot of help," I spoke before turning towards the place Caroline was and then towards where Alex was sleeping.
"If anything goes wrong, call me first," I muttered before I proceeded to move up and White muttered in a low voice,"monster…. Though I guess almost all of us are the same now."
Moving up, I reached the 40th floor and began running as fast as I could. I did not know how long it would take to complete 100 miles, and the fact that morning was just around the corner, I wanted to complete all the daily quests and get that bonus stat as well.
I ran to one corner and then turned back before running again… continuing this process again and again … and soon I did not know how much time had passed but…
[Ding!]
[Daily quest completes 100/100 Miles!]
[+500 Exp!]
[Bonus Quest Complete!]
[+1 Dexterity]
A few minutes later, I saw the daily quest being refreshed as the day was finally over, which made me smile a little as I caught up my breath for another 20 minutes or so, before proceeding to run once again.
[100/100 Miles!]
[+500 Exp!]
I pondered a little and then began running against but before I could do so
"Oi! Get down here," I heard the voice of White speaking from the stairs and I stopped whatever I was doing.
Moving downwards, I saw Alex holding his sister as he sat on the sofa eating cereals. While Caroline prepared breakfast for the rest of us. Looking at me, all covered in sweat, Alex spoke in an annoyed tone,
"Get a bath and change before sitting down at the table."
Listening to him, I sighed before getting in the bathroom, where I saw a set of clothes already there and proceeded to take a shower. Luckily, the water supply was intact, and I took a proper bath before getting out and observing the other silently waiting for me at the dining table.
Alex and White were sitting on one side, with Caroline and I on the other, and all four of us began praying for the food as soon as I sat down. Finally getting to eat a proper meal in all this chaos; all of us ate our fill with grateful and delighted faces.
"This is so delicious, sister!!!" spoke Alex with a blissful face and, White and I, we both agreed to it. Caroline blushed a little before all of us finished the food.
"Well, it's our turn to take guard now," Caroline said as she looked at me and I pondered a little before nodding at her. While I do not need rest, I do need some privacy where I can complete the rest of the exercises.
Perhaps he read my thoughts, but White made a really odd expression before sighing and muttering something silently under his breath.
'Well… let's take another extra Stat for today, shall we?' I thought as I stood up, thanked Caroline before moving inside the room and… began exercising again.
