Apocalypse - Evil Shelter System

In front of Alex, these goddesses who could once look down upon most men before the apocalypse, were now fawning over Alex, who seemed a bit nerdy, to such an extent.

"These women! Really... they are shameless!" Watching Li Wan Ning and others, like brainwashing in a pyramid scheme, advocating for wholehearted devotion to Alex, Si Ruosun cursed angrily in her heart.

But soon, she thought to herself, "If Alex really wants me to do that... what should I do?"

At this thought, Si Ruosun suddenly felt her heartbeat quicken a lot, and her chest felt uncomfortable as if a small deer was bumping around inside.

Although she was not young anymore, she had indeed never been in love.

Whether in the police academy or the police station, there were many who pursued her.

However, for some reason, she never liked to bother with those men who tried every means to please her and fawn over her.

She always felt that such men were not capable and lacked backbone, which she looked down upon.

Until she met Alex in the apocalypse...

"Oh well! There are so many beauties here, I, a woman without much femininity, surely won't be liked by him!" Si Ruosun muttered sourly to herself: "Hmph! Anyway, I will never fawn over him!"

Meanwhile, Alex came to the warehouse door again, gently knocked, and a surprised yet weak voice came from inside: "Who is it? Has Alex come?"

The door soon opened, and everyone in the warehouse greeted Alex as if he were a celebrity.

Only Darlene sat aside with a stern face, slightly aggrieved, and said: "Alex, why did you only come now? If you didn't come, we would have starved to death!"

In recent days, Darlene enjoyed a high status in the warehouse. Because she was now Alex's woman, everyone there was extremely obedient and compliant to her.

She was in charge of distributing food and water.

Anyone who caused her the slightest discomfort would be met with her furious punishment.

These days, she found pleasure in feeling like a queen.

This made her feel increasingly invincible.

Her previous fear of Alex was gradually fading, replaced by a belief that since she had given her first time to Alex, he would surely be indulgent, caring, and even loving towards her.

So, when she spoke to Alex, she deliberately put on an aggrieved and coquettish demeanor.

She aimed to show her importance among the people in the warehouse to gain a higher status.

All this was the result of her careful thinking over the past two days.

Based on some analyses she had seen from feminist bloggers on Weibo, she believed that ordinary men, especially nerdy ones, couldn't resist a woman's grievances, coquettishness, and tantrums!

If she could shed a few tears, as a goddess, she was sure to make Alex, the nerdy guy, completely fall for her and become utterly obedient and tender to her.

Once Alex was captivated by her goddess-like demeanor and became her devoted admirer, she could enjoy being a queen in the post-apocalyptic world to her heart's content!

However, Alex didn't react as Darlene had anticipated. He didn't rush to apologize or bring her food and water to seek her forgiveness.

Alex just coldly and indifferently turned to glance at Darlene, saying icily, "Are you talking to me?"

Darlene, hearing the coldness in Alex's voice and recalling his past actions, shuddered.

But remembering the words of the feminist bloggers on Weibo, Darlene regained her resolve.

Darlene deliberately wiped her tears, sashayed her curvaceous hips to Alex, and clung to his arm, crying plaintively, "You heartless man, have you forgotten about me? I've been missing you terribly these past days. If you had delayed any longer, what would have happened if your woman starved to death..."

After speaking, Darlene felt a surge of triumph in her heart: "Nerds always fall for goddesses like me, right? Alex, today I will conquer you and make you obediently become my slave!"

The corners of Darlene's mouth lifted slightly, her faith in the advice of the feminist bloggers unwavering.

"Slap!" A loud slap echoed in the warehouse.

Without warning, Alex suddenly slapped Darlene resoundingly.

"When did I ever allow you to speak to me like that? What do you think you are? You're nothing but a dog I keep, and you dare speak to me like that?" Alex said coldly, sneering: "Kneel down!"

Darlene looked at Alex in disbelief, trembling as she knelt to the ground.

Alex then took out a metal chain from his bag and threw it to Darlene, saying, "Put it on yourself!"

"Damn it! All those feminist theories were just lies!" Darlene cursed in her heart, finally learning her lesson and obediently kneeling on the ground, following Alex's orders.

Alex, holding the leash, sat down in a chair, casually spreading his legs and giving Darlene a look.

With tears in her eyes, Darlene obediently crawled over...

"Today, I came to bring you food. But before I give you the food, we need to play a game!"

Alex's mouth curled into a slight, cold smile: "To survive better, we can't always rely on me alone to find food and water, right? If I die out there, won't everyone starve to death? So, we need to figure out a way to choose someone else to go out!"

"I propose that we select another person to go out into the zombie-infested areas like I do, and bring back some food and water for everyone."

Everyone in the warehouse looked at each other. They were not fools; in fact, they were quite smart.

Apart from Alex, it would be a death sentence for any of them to go outside.

Alex's motive for doing this was entirely to get revenge on them!

Yes, Alex's purpose was to make these people feel what he had felt before.

"Alright! Now everyone come here, take a piece of paper and a pen, write down who you think is the most suitable candidate, and then I'll tally the votes! The person with the most votes will be the brave explorer for this mission."

Alex, with a devilish smile, spoke slowly and ominously.

"How can we let you tally the votes yourself! Let me do it for everyone! As the educational director here, I won't participate in this election!" Terry, with a full-faced fake smile, crawled next to Alex, ingratiatingly offering to help.

Alex abruptly pulled Darlene away from her efforts and sprang to his feet, delivering a heavy kick to Terry's face: "When did I say it was your turn to speak? Did I ask for your opinion?"

Terry, enduring the intense pain, spat out blood and several teeth, rolling on the ground and crying out, "I know I was wrong! Please calm your anger! I won't dare do it again!"

Alex then kicked Terry several more times before waving his hand and saying, "Let's begin now!"

Paper and pens were distributed, and everyone looked at each other with questioning eyes, silently inquiring about each other's intentions.

Everyone knew that being chosen meant certain death. Being selected was as good as being dead.

No one wanted to die! Everyone hoped that the chosen one would be someone else, not themselves!

Soon, the pieces of paper were placed in front of Alex.

From the looks in these people's eyes, Alex had already guessed the outcome.

Glancing at Terry, who had lost half his teeth and was covered in blood, Alex smiled and beckoned him over: "Old Du, come here! You read the votes."

Terry's eyes flashed with a hint of ecstasy as he hurriedly crawled next to Alex, opening a piece of paper to read aloud.

But as soon as he saw the name on it, he was stunned.

Alex slapped Terry hard across the face: "Read it out!"

"Du... Terry... one vote..." Terry read one paper with a mournful face, then opened another, "Du... Du... Terry, two votes..."

Seven or eight consecutive votes were all for Terry...

Terry collapsed completely on the ground, trembling in utter despair.

The others all let out a slight sigh of relief.

Alex stood up with a cold smirk.

Looking at the people kneeling on the ground, Alex then said to Terry, "I give you two choices."

"First, obediently go out there and meet your death!"

"Second, open the warehouse door, let the zombies in to kill everyone here, and you might have a chance to live."

After Alex finished speaking, everyone kneeling on the ground looked up at Terry in horror, their eyes filled with pleading.

"Director Du! It's better for one person to die than for all of us!"

"Director Du! As a director, you should sacrifice yourself for the greater good!"

"Teacher Terry! We've always listened to you and respected you! You can't betray us!!"

"Teacher Terry, haven't you always said that we should be brave enough to sacrifice and understand sacrifice? Sacrifice one for the good of all! We've always believed you to be such a great person!"

"Teacher Terry! It's always been you asking others to sacrifice, maybe it's time for your sacrifice?"

The crowd erupted into a noisy clamor, excitedly urging Terry.

Listening to the people's hypocritical admonitions, Terry's expression became more and more ferocious until he reached his breaking point: "Why should I be the one to sacrifice? Why not you?! Just because I'm a teacher doesn't mean I have to sacrifice! I want all of you to die! Die!!!"

Terry roared in madness, laughing wildly and viciously: "I choose to open the warehouse door, let these wretched people all die!!!"

"Die!!"

"All of you damn die!!!"
