"The aning is, if you want to stay at Jianglin Hotel long-term, you need to book a room at Jianglin Hotel, regardless of whether you stay there or not."
Anyway, if you want to stay at Jianglin Hotel long-term, you have to book a room. This is a rule that Chu Jiangyue cannot change.
Otherwise, those too lazy to even kill one zombie a day would stay on the open grounds of Jianglin Hotel every day, and Chu Jiangyue wouldn’t need to run this hotel.
The two Mutated Tigers tilted their heads and thought for a while, finally deciding to ask Chu Jiangyue to help them book a two-bedroom suite.
Then they also transferred the small tiger’s living place under their nas.
Chu Jiangyue quickly completed the process, costing a total of 4 silver coins, which posed no pressure given their current balance.
"Your room is ready, and you can enter anyti. Just swipe your card at the door when you go in."
Chu Jiangyue handed each Mutated Tiger their Identity Card and explained how to use it.
She was just worried that they might reach the room door and not know how to use the Identity Card, causing a commotion in the building.
Chu Jiangyue also taught them how to open a virtual screen and added them as friends, so they could contact her anyti if needed.
The voice chat feature on the Identity Card allowed for voice ssages.
She couldn’t expect the two Mutated Tigers to read.
"Roar!"
One Mutated Tiger tapped the Identity Card with its paw, then the card disappeared. Chu Jiangyue guessed it had been stored in their space.
With the Mutated Tigers taken care of, Chu Jiangyue breathed a sigh of relief.
However, the two with their Identity Cards didn’t leave Jianglin Hotel imdiately; instead, they went under two trees on the lawn and lay there comfortably.
After leaving the office hall, this was the scene Chu Jiangyue saw.
But since the big tigers weren’t causing trouble and were lying there quietly, Chu Jiangyue didn’t plan to do anything to them since they weren’t bothering anyone on the lawn.
Guests were initially a bit fearful seeing Mutated Tigers under the tree, but as ti passed and they realized the tigers wouldn’t attack people, they gradually lost their fear.
So even dared to talk to the Mutated Tigers, even though they couldn’t understand what the tigers said, it didn’t stop them from chatting.
During this ti, Chu Jiangyue was researching ways to drive away the zombies outside Jianglin Hotel or eliminate them as quickly as possible.
Simply relying on Jianglin Hotel guests to take turns killing zombies each day would be never-ending.
"Do you think if I throw a bunch of raw at behind them, they would turn back?"
"Not necessarily."
Shen Zhigui wasn’t optimistic about Chu Jiangyue’s idea.
The zombies surrounding Jianglin Hotel were clearly being controlled, but by whom was unknown.
Hearing Shen Zhigui’s answer, Chu Jiangyue frowned slightly. If not even raw at could lure the zombies away, would they have to resort to killing them bit by bit?
"Don’t worry, there must be other ways."
In any case, Shen Zhigui could see that the guests at Jianglin Hotel were quite enjoying their daily zombie hunts at the hotel door.
As long as the guests weren’t complaining, leaving things as they were wasn’t a problem for now.
If anyone wanted to leave Jianglin Hotel, they could drive out through the B City Base’s secure passage.
If soone wasn’t even willing to drive that short distance, Shen Zhigui didn’t think such a guest deserved Chu Jiangyue’s consideration.
However, Chu Jiangyue wasn’t one to make things difficult for herself. Unable to think of a way to drive the zombies back, she quickly put the matter out of her mind.
Her superpower at hand, she sent out vines which, with one sweep, snagged a string of zombies. And when she retracted the vines, crystals unrolled from their leaves.
What surprised Chu Jiangyue was that even the two little ones, Shang Guyue and Shang Gucheng, managed to kill several zombies after joining forces.
Although it was just Level 1 Zombies, it’s important to rember they were still very young, with Shang Gucheng only 3 years old.
Thinking about these two kids, and then recalling Jiang Zhenzhen and Liu Yiyi who couldn’t even co up with one silver coin for a night’s stay.
Clearly, disparities between people exist.
"When you kill zombies, be sure to stay safe and don’t step outside the hotel’s protection shield."
Their success in killing zombies was primarily because of Jianglin Hotel’s protection shield, which prevented zombie attacks.
The two little ones took advantage of this, using small hamrs Chu Jiangyue found for them in the tool room to chip away at a zombie’s leg bit by bit.
Once the zombie’s leg was short enough that it fell and got trampled by other zombies, that was their chance to harvest it.
One must admit, the little ones had brains.
"Understood, Fairy Sister!"
For Shang Gucheng, moving from being scared to tears by zombies to being able to kill them himself took a lot of ti and courage, and to adjust to the existence of zombies in such a short span.
"Good boy!"
Chu Jiangyue reached out to rub the little one’s head, her face showing an unconscious maternal smile.
Obedient children were truly adorable; she only disliked naughty children.
Being patted on the head by Chu Jiangyue, Shang Gucheng squinted his eyes and even shook his head to nuzzle against Chu Jiangyue’s palm.
Chu Jiangyue didn’t expect Shang Gucheng to do that, lting her heart. She gave a few more rubs before letting him go.
Truly, little cubs were the most fun.
Unable to think of a better solution, just like other hotel guests, Chu Jiangyue started her day by invariably going to kill zombies, and once her power ran out, she would return to rest and recharge, repeating this cycle.
But, as the saying goes, when one door closes, another opens. As the days passed, after the polar day, a sudden drop in temperatures led to continuous snow outside Jianglin Hotel.
With the temperature continuing to drop, the zombies began to exhibit sluggish movents.
Until one day, the external temperature dropped to minus 100°C, freezing all the zombies surrounding Jianglin Hotel into ice sculptures.
The guests trapped inside Jianglin Hotel for two weeks, unable to go outside, started cheering the next morning when they found all the zombies outside frozen as ice sculptures.
"Ahhh! Finally, I can go out again!"
"With these zombies immobile, doesn’t that an we can cherry-pick Crystal Cores?"
In those two weeks, they had killed quite a few zombies and collected many Crystal Cores, but the effort involved in active hunting versus straightforward harvesting was imnsely different.
After two weeks of chanically killing zombies, the guests at Jianglin Hotel started a new trend of digging Crystal Cores.
Chu Jiangyue not only dug herself, but also brought along Granny Hua and the two little ones for digging.
The two Mutated Tigers would occasionally let the small tiger tag along, essentially adopting a free-range approach.
