After Surviving the Apocalypse, I Built a City in Another World

[03:21:22]

Althea looked at the hospital with a complicated expression.

It seemed like it was only a few days ago that she was here, also for an ultrasound.

At that time, both Auntie and her brother came with her. They admired the growth of the children together, gushing about how beautiful the kids were were how they were growing so well.

Now she didn’t have either of those two people beside her and the environment was no longer the bustling city she was used to. Instead, it was filled with the rotting scent of death and the gloom of despair.

Althea took a step forward with a depressed mood. They walked closer and closer to the hospital, trying to be as quiet as they could.

But it didn’t take long before Fufi suddenly stopped midway, warily staring in a direction, growling.

Her eyes followed the direction he was looking at and she immediately held up her katana and took on a posture, ready to attack.

Soon she saw fast-moving figures from afar, getting closer and closer.

It was those upgraded zombies again. However, she didn’t have a plasma gun anymore and she was not planning on using the guns she saved for that Other World.

The upgraded zombies soon zoomed in on them, running quickly for their meal. But she noticed as a few ran in their direction, there were even more running behind them...

Soon a small horde of fast-approaching figures appeared in her eyes. The noise they made also alerted the normal zombies, forming a small wave, directed right at them.

Her heart stopped a little.

There seemed to be over a score...

Why were there so many?!

What she didn’t know was that many survivors in the area gathered together after the first few hours. They banded together, hoping to get through the ordeal together as countrymen.

They did fairly well for themselves at first, even rescuing a few others.

Unfortunately, they met the gangster trio and their guns, forcing themselves to be the ’leaders’. But these men took advantage and harassed the women, igniting the rebellious spirit of the people.

However, no matter how brave, the weak would be the weak. The fight unsurprisingly caused a lot of deaths, which in turn triggered the zombie wave.

It was during this battle that the trio found out about the concealing effect of zombie goo, which was at the cost of a dozen lives.

Had she known, Althea would’ve stabbed their dead corpse even dead-er.

In any case, those survivors were now upgraded zombies and were now her headache.

She killed zombies after zombies, endlessly, while slowly approaching the hospital doors.

Fufi really shined at this point, killing zombie after zombie, and quickly reached the peak of his level.

She charged forward with a swift strike, her katana slicing through the air, beheading one.

She then leaned down to avoid an attack, parrying her katana to a direction, stabbing another, and quickly slashing the weapon to take off its head.

She turned her center of gravity to avoid a claw. However, it nicked a bit of her cloth... on her stomach.

It was too close to her babies that she felt her heart drop.

In her distraction, Fufi leaped from behind her to paw another upgraded zombie’s head. He wasn’t strong enough to one-hit an upgraded zombie yet, but the impact was enough to push it back and give Althea enough time to gather herself.

Althea quickly pulled herself together and sprinted towards the monsters, beheading them at the fastest speed, lest they attract even more zombies to the vicinity.

By the time they cleared the zombies, her spirit was already halved and she started to feel pregnancy symptoms: dizziness, leg cramps, which could literally kill her at this time.

Even if there were only ordinary zombies moving slowly, because of their quantity and her current state, she couldn’t help but feel the impending sense of doom.

The duo dragged their legs to the hospital and closed the door, attracting the ordinary zombies inside. Althea didn’t want to move anymore. Fortunately, Fufi wasn’t pregnant and his energy and low spirits didn’t affect him much.

The dog killed them all, eventually reaching level 2.

Again, the zombies turned to them turning wilder and Fufi killed them easily. She felt this was an important point, but she was too lethargic to think about anything at the moment.

[02:23:11]

Althea and Fufi went to the elevator to climb to the Ob-Gyn department on the fourth floor. She opened the door and they ignored the ordinary zombies as they ignored them in turn.

They eventually reached the department and opened the nearest door. She didn’t even say anything and Fufi ran past her to deal with the two zombies in the room, one of which was in a doctor’s coat and the other was a woman with a big belly.

To her surprise, not only did Fufi crush the heads of the two zombies, but also the woman’s stomach.

She belatedly realized that the child could very well be a zombie as well. The thought of a small zombie with a baby’s face crawling made her spinal cord crawl.

She sincerely praised Fufi and gave him a snack, not forgetting to give him a big petting.

However, she really couldn’t stay up for too long and eyed the nearest soft surface that she could see.

She crawled onto the hospital bed, which still had some blood on it, and laid down.

Her eyelids were heavy and her body felt like lead.

It didn’t take long for her to fall into slumber, with Fufi pattering next to her, guarding her with his life.
