Apocalypse: The Hotel She Runs Is the Only Paradise

Chapter 119

Among the onlookers, some were dumbfounded, some had solemn expressions, and others frowned, seemingly deep in thought.

"What is he doing?"

"I think I saw him rushing towards the plane."

"Does that mean the girl is behind this?"

"We can't say that. The plane belongs to her, and he insisted on boarding. How can we blame the girl for this..."

"Let me tell you this: this girl is no ordinary person. It's best not to offend her."

"That makes sense."

"I think it's fine. Haven't you seen high-level ability users before?"

"The problem is, no matter how powerful a high-level ability user is, they still need to take action, right? Did you see that girl do anything?"

"Well..."

The man who had fallen to the ground took a while to get up. Clutching his chest, he looked at Gu Wanyin in terror: "You..."

"I warned you," Gu Wanyin said calmly. "You chose not to listen."

The man, seemingly shocked by something, trembled on the spot for a moment, then suddenly let out a howl and ran away, screaming and shouting.

Gu Wanyin: "..."

Was he that traumatized from being thrown around a few times?

"System, besides ejecting him, what else did you do?" Gu Wanyin asked.

"Hehe, host, you've guessed it. It wasn't much, I just flashed a few ghost images in front of him."

"System, you've become naughty again."

After this incident, a few people started to believe in Gu Wanyin.

The most important thing was that they couldn't see any hope in L City.

Everyone felt like they were living on borrowed time, not knowing when they might be bitten by zombies or starve to death.

The environment in L City was truly terrible.

Whether or not that hotel was real, going with Gu Wanyin to City A by plane would at least slightly improve their living conditions.

At the very least, City A must have a decent survival base!

If Gu Wanyin was really deceiving them, wanting their lives... so be it!

They just had to take a gamble.

If they won, they could live in such a nice hotel.

If they lost, saying goodbye to this hell of a world wasn't so bad!

"Excuse me, how should we address you?" a man approached Gu Wanyin and asked in a hoarse voice.

"My surname is Gu," Gu Wanyin said with a smile. "The guests in the hotel usually call me Boss Gu."

"Boss Gu, we're willing to go back with you," the man said.

Gu Wanyin saw that behind him were a woman and a girl about eleven or twelve years old, probably a family of three.

"Alright," Gu Wanyin was pleased. "You can exchange points for crystal cores, or normal items like gold, silver, jewelry, watches, fountain pens, and so on. The more valuable the item, the more points you can exchange. You can go collect some items first, then come back to exchange points and get your cards. I'll stay here for a day and depart back in the evening. Also, if you want to take the plane, you need to spend points. It's 200 points per person from here to the Peace Hotel in City A."

"I understand," the man nodded, then said to his wife and daughter, "I have a level one crystal core on me now. You take it first, and I'll go find more things to exchange for points. Wait for me here."

"Be careful," his wife said worriedly.

"Dad, we'll wait for you to come back," his daughter said in a clear voice.

The man pinched his daughter's cheek and turned to leave.

With him taking the lead, several other people also went to find things they could exchange for points.

Gradually, more and more people came to inquire near the plane, and Gu Wanyin patiently explained about the hotel over and over again, showing them the advertisement.

However, as the crowd grew, there were always some crazy and fearless individuals who tried to rush into the plane, and some even attempted to lay hands on Gu Wanyin.

Of course, their fates were not pleasant.

Those who tried to attack Gu Wanyin were directly thrown into the air, spinning 360 degrees several times, then shot out like rockets. No one knew how far they flew; they simply disappeared from sight.

Many people were dumbfounded.

They knew there were some powerful high-level ability users now, but they clearly saw that Gu Wanyin just stood there calmly, doing nothing!

A few who had read novels secretly wondered if Gu Wanyin was bound to some kind of system.

But they had no way to confirm it.

At noon, Gu Wanyin felt hungry and returned to the cockpit to eat a bowl of rice noodles.

She had taken the rice noodles from a noodle shop when she left in the morning, packed in a takeout box.

Although it had been several hours, the noodles still tasted as if they had just come out of the pot - fragrant, spicy, chewy, and smooth.

In the afternoon, Gu Wanyin began exchanging points for customers who were prepared to return with her.

Originally, the machine for exchanging points was on the aircraft, but Gu Wanyin found it troublesome and had the system bring it down.

She sat next to the plane, and people who wanted to exchange points queued up with their items.

The cards issued after exchanging points were transit cards.

There was a card reader at the entrance of the plane. Customers only needed to swipe their cards there to enter the plane safely.

The remaining points on the card could be transferred to room cards after returning to the hotel.

Once one person took the lead, more and more people came to Gu Wanyin to exchange points, get cards, and board the plane.

Most people were taking a gamble with this decision.

In the end, a total of over a hundred people boarded the plane.

The task of bringing back fifty guests was definitely going to be completed.

As the sky began to darken, Gu Wanyin looked at the people still hesitating around her and said, "I'm preparing to depart now. There are still many empty seats on the plane. Are you sure you don't want to come with me? I'm not sure when I'll be back in L City next time."

After saying this, she played the advertisement one more time.

After the advertisement finished, a couple made up their minds, got their cards, and boarded the plane.

However, the others still didn't dare to trust her.

Gu Wanyin waited a bit longer, and seeing that no one else came to get a card, she said nothing more. She took the machine and boarded the plane, returning to the cockpit.

The cabin door slowly closed, and the plane began to taxi.

There was a broadcast system in the cockpit. Gu Wanyin spoke into the microphone: "Dear passengers, the plane has begun taxiing. Please fasten your seatbelts, put away your tray tables, adjust your seat backs to the upright position, and open your window shades. Thank you for your cooperation."

In reality, even if the passengers were doing square dancing in the plane during takeoff, it wouldn't matter.

But... she just wanted to pretend a little!

After the plane took off, the passengers couldn't help but start discussing in low voices. Some were excited, some were still nervous, and some had their hands clasped together, praying continuously.
