Everyone was stunned, so simple?
As the words fell, Xu Qian stepped forward and unlocked the door, and zombies instantly swarmed out from within.
The women, without hesitation, raised their weapons and charged forward.
Limbs and heads flew everywhere.
The scene was gruesome.
The children covered their eyes, not daring to look.
Xu Qian glanced at them, her tone cool and indifferent, "These zombies eat people. Your mothers are killing bad guys, and you should follow their example and become heroes like them."
Hearing this, the children cautiously lowered their hands from their faces. Though scared, they didn't dare to look too much, stealing glances before quickly lowering their heads.
Xu Qian narrowed her eyes slightly. This wouldn't do. While it was normal for children to be timid, timidity in the apocalypse meant death.
She needed to train their courage.
She counted them. There were sixteen children in total.
The Level 2 zombies in the office building were all dead, leaving only Level 1 zombies, which were not a threat.
"Your task today is to count. The child who counts most accurately will get a reward."
The children's eyes lit up, and they eagerly asked what the reward was and what they needed to count.
With a thought, Xu Qian conjured a box of lollipops out of thin air.
"The one who counts most accurately gets the most lollipops. Those who count inaccurately get the least. Anyone willing to count will receive a reward."
The children's excitement surged.
"Sister, tell us, how do we count?"
"Hurry, hurry, tell us!"
Xu Qian glanced at the women who were fighting fiercely. Most of them were quite slow, with only a few being faster.
She pointed to one of the more aggressive and beautiful women.
"Just count how many zombies she kills."
"Five, four, three, two, one, start counting!"
The children blinked in surprise and instinctively widened their eyes, starting to count one by one, afraid of missing even one.
They no longer cared about being scared, as long as they could eat lollipops.
Heaven knew how long it had been since they had enjoyed such a luxury.
Xu Qian smiled with satisfaction. Level 1 zombies were not a big deal if one wasn't afraid.
When genuine Level 2 zombies were rampant, survival would be impossible without skill.
An hour later, the women began to tire, many of them feeling their limbs go weak, nearly getting grabbed by the zombies.
Most of them used their weapons, not their abilities.
Xu Qian frowned and said, "Don't just use your blades. Use your abilities if you have them. Combining abilities with weapons is much more efficient."
The women reacted quickly. Fighting with their abilities while wielding their blades significantly reduced the pressure.
Another hour passed. Some children began to cry out, "Sister, Mommy is so tired, can you let them rest for a bit?"
"Yes, sister, they look so pitiful."
Xu Qian said impassively, "If this weren't a training ground, what would happen to them?"
The children fell silent. Indeed, if this were a real horde of zombies, their mothers would be gone by now.
Only when they were so exhausted that they could only swing their daggers by sheer willpower did Xu Qian step forward and re-lock the glass door.
Instantly, everyone collapsed on the ground, motionless, not caring if there were zombies beneath them.
They were so tired they didn't want to move a finger, only wanting to rest, just for a moment.
Xu Qian slowly asked, "How do you feel?"
The women couldn't utter a word. They had never killed so many zombies before.
Previously, they would hide if they could, only fighting if they couldn't.
Now, they were truly fighting, with no room for laziness.
