Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 166

If they had nothing to exchange for points, there would be no use in Gu Wanyin taking them back.

So she drove the carriage again, taking them to a jewelry store in town.

The jewelry store was already in shambles, with items scattered across the floor, and there was a large bloodstain on the wall that was particularly eye-catching.

They almost wanted to cry when they entered.

"Is this really okay?" one girl said trembling, "These things belong to others, can we just take them?"

"We can't worry about that now, don't you remember? The owner of this jewelry store was buried by our own hands."

"Our priority now is to survive! We've endured for so long, and finally met the Angel. Do you want to fail now? Stop talking and quickly gather more jewelry!"

They immediately began searching through the store.

Silver jewelry was definitely gone, all destroyed by the vampires.

But they found quite a few gold necklaces, rings, bracelets, and gemstones.

They found a large bag and packed all these items inside.

"Angel, is this enough?"

Gu Wanyin looked at the bag full of gold jewelry and gems, nodded and said, "That's about right, but take as much as you can. This way you can stay at the hotel longer."

Hearing this, they gathered more items, filled another bag, and then got back on the carriage.

Gu Wanyin drove the carriage and took them back to the hotel.

Perhaps because they knew beforehand that Gu Wanyin was an "Angel" and that this hotel was bestowed by "God," they weren't too surprised when they entered. When they saw Old Six, they even picked it up and cuddled it.

This annoyed Old Six so much it almost jumped up to the chandelier.

With two large bags of jewelry, they naturally earned quite a few points.

They only stopped after accumulating two thousand points, then requested a family room.

After all, the five of them had been together since the vampires appeared, so they didn't want to separate and preferred to stay together.

Meanwhile, Gu Wanyin completed the system-issued task.

"Ding! Congratulations host, task completed. Rewards: unlocked one fountain pool; unlocked unlimited silver swords; host unlocked one-click makeup function."

Simultaneously, a large fountain appeared at the castle entrance.

In the center was an exquisitely crafted angel statue.

The fountain could create various shapes - hearts, stars, mountains, butterflies...

Whatever one could imagine, the fountain could produce it.

The sudden appearance of the fountain surprised the hotel guests, who gathered to pray with clasped hands before the angel statue.

The hotel now had over a dozen guests who, after praying, sat together outside sunbathing and chatting, creating quite a lively atmosphere.

However, soon the sky darkened.

They all had dinner and returned to their rooms to rest.

Gu Wanyin also had a bowl of spicy hot pot before returning to her room to try out her one-click makeup function.

"Host, just say what kind of makeup you want!" the system said, "You can describe it specifically or mention the type of makeup, like natural makeup, smokey eyes, peach blossom makeup, pure sexy makeup, etc. You can also request makeup suitable for spring, summer, and so on. Each style has multiple looks, and if you don't like what appears, you can change it freely."

"That's so convenient? Let me try the peach blossom makeup first," Gu Wanyin said eagerly, sitting in front of the mirror.

As soon as she finished speaking, she saw her face change in the mirror.

Her cheeks were covered with two large pink circles, her eyes had flashy pink eyeshadow, and there was a huge peach blossom pattern on her forehead.

Gu Wanyin: "..."

"System, are you messing with me?" Gu Wanyin asked ominously.

"Oh, don't worry host, we can change it!" the system quickly said, "Trust me!"

"Then let's try another one."

As soon as she spoke, Gu Wanyin saw her makeup change again.

This time, the makeup was actually quite nice.

Everything was perfectly balanced, giving her a soft, pink appearance, and the small peach blossom on her forehead was delicate and cute, not tacky at all.

"Hmm, this is really good!" Gu Wanyin said satisfactorily.

"Hehe, host, I told you you'd be satisfied with this reward! Plus, you can remove the makeup with just one click!"

The system's tone was full of "praise me please" energy.

Gu Wanyin granted its wish, praising, "Yes, my system is the best!"

Silver swords appeared in the silver shop.

Tom's squad members were very happy because two of them were skilled swordsmen.

However, silver swords were more expensive than silver daggers, costing five hundred points.

After some consideration, Tom only bought two swords for the team members who were particularly skilled with swords.

After all, the others already had silver daggers, and they were growing garlic.

They didn't know when they would next kill vampires, and Blood Element Pearls were rare, so they needed to save points when possible.

The five guests Gu Wanyin brought from Cateros Town discussed among themselves and bought one dagger and one sword.

Though they weren't skilled in using them, they had enough points, and having silver weapons for protection was always good.

...

On a dark and windy night, a small troop quietly approached the castle.

"Duke, let's rest here for a while," a man said. "Vampires could appear at any time, and if we make too much noise, we'll easily attract their attention."

The man called "Duke" thought briefly, then nodded: "Very well, let the soldiers rest here, and you go ahead to scout further."

"Yes, sir."

After his subordinate left quietly, the Duke turned to look at his remaining twenty-some soldiers and sighed.

How glorious had his life once been?

Aliali: 673ebb12c4f3f33ac4eea08cBut now, everything was gone.

Even his troops had been reduced to just this handful of men.

Moreover, the soldiers were now demoralized, with several already showing signs of rebellion.

After all, in this apocalyptic world, what did his title of Duke mean anymore?

After a while, the subordinate he had sent out crept back.

"Duke, I just saw a castle ahead. It's very tall and large, and even has lights on."

"Who would dare to keep lights on at a time like this? Could it be a vampire castle?"

"I can't be sure about that, sir. I didn't dare get too close."

"Then tomorrow morning at daybreak, take a few men and thoroughly investigate the situation at that castle!"

"Yes, sir!"
