Apocalypse: I'm the Landlady of the Refuge

Time was running out, and Ji Wanwan quickly explained that the apocalypse was imminent.

Mrs. Ji was hesitant, "Wanwan, is it because you've been under too much pressure from studying recently?"

Ji Wanwan thought of the System, and with a thought, extended her hand to gather the wardrobe next to her into the space.

[Detected a mahogany wardrobe, valued at 7000 yuan, current task progress 80.7/100]

The task moved! It turned out that items from home could also be sold to the System Space.

Ji Wanwan sensed it and found that the wardrobe was in a deep and mysterious space.

She tried to retrieve it and found that the wardrobe could be normally retrieved, and the accumulated task progress was not erased.

Her parents were startled, but eventually, they believed their daughter's claims about having a space and the imminent arrival of the apocalypse.

Her parents were worried, and Ji Wanwan directed them to buy medical supplies from a nearby pharmacy.

She stayed in the house to continue gathering items and completing the task.

This old house was full of immovable items, and since they couldn't be moved, the Second Uncle's family would not have a good end!

Ji Wanwan tapped the wardrobe, and the next second, the wardrobe disappeared—

Ji Wanwan narrowed her eyes and then tapped on the tiles on the wall, and the next second, the tiles disappeared—

[Detected one wall tile, valued at 400 yuan, current task progress 80.74/100]

Great! Even things that couldn't be removed could be taken away!

Then she wouldn't leave even a single hair for the Second Uncle's family.

Ji Wanwan began frantically tapping—

[Detected a gold necklace, valued at 6000 yuan...]

[Detected a porcelain bowl, valued at 5 yuan...]

[Detected a trash can, valued at 7 yuan...]

[Detected an iron basin, valued at 15 yuan...]

...

In just fifteen minutes, she spared nothing, from large home appliances to small kitchen utensils, even the ten chickens and two pigs in the yard were not overlooked.

She gathered everything in the house that could be seen or thought of into the System Space.

All the items in the house disappeared one by one, leaving Mr. and Mrs. Ji speechless when they returned home.

[Current task progress 99.8/100]

"Hiss..." Although she knew the family was always strapped for cash, she hadn't realized it was to this extent.

She had tapped on everything possible and still fell short by 2000!

[Task countdown: 3 seconds]

Ji Wanwan: "!!!"

Was this meant to be so sudden?

Still short by 2000, what could she do?

Looking at the empty shell of the house, Ji Wanwan had a flash of inspiration and tapped the wall.

[Time's up!]

[Detected a set of concrete houses, valued at 30,000 yuan, current task progress 102.8/100]

[Congratulations to the Host for completing the Newbie Task, obtaining a Level 1 Refuge capable of resisting initial zombie attacks]

[Level 1 Refuge issued, including two single rooms and one suite, with a maximum capacity of 10 people]

[Reward +10 points to Body Function, please select from: Physical Strength, Endurance, Strength, Agility, Spirit, Charm]

Ji Wanwan selected Physical Strength, as the apocalypse had arrived, and running fast was a priority. As for the rest, she planned to take them slowly, ideally increasing some points for her parents.

The moment she completed the task, Ji Wanwan felt a warm current surge through her limbs and joints.

The chest tightness and shortness of breath that had accompanied her for 20 years were unexpectedly alleviated at that moment.

Realizing she had truly become stronger, Ji Wanwan was ecstatic.

She sensed the System Space again and found that the previously deep and mysterious space had expanded, and all the items she had collected were inside.

Just as she was about to continue exploring the refuge, a system notification appeared:

[As the Host has not conducted refuge location selection, the refuge cannot be deployed]

[Does the Host want to carry out refuge location selection?]

Ji Wanwan: [Yes]

[Discovery of welfare task: Activate the refuge]

[Activation condition: Complete the refuge location selection]

[Task Reward: One robot butler]

The next second, a map appeared before her eyes.

Three locations were marked with red circles on the map: an abandoned resort, a deserted amusement park, and an undeveloped mountaintop.

[Please Host complete the selection of the refuge]

After weighing the options, Ji Wanwan chose the resort.

The moment she checked the box, a resort lease agreement for 100 years materialized in Ji Wanwan's hands.

At the same time, the voice of the System rang out again beside Ji Wanwan's ear—

[Congratulations, Host, on completing the welfare task. Reward: one robot butler]

[Robot butler has been deposited at the refuge, available for use upon Host's arrival]

Since Ji Wanwan had used the System Space to remove the walls of civilian homes, now only an empty plot of land remained here.

Looking at the empty land, she was quite satisfied with her own masterpiece.

Luckily, it was already night, and not many residents were around; the disappearance of a house didn't attract attention.

Her younger brother was attending school in Kang City. After receiving a phone call, he rushed home via high-speed train, only to find their home gone...

Ji Wanwan didn't have time to explain in detail to her brother, and hastened to take her family to the resort refuge.

Along the way, their parents briefly explained the situation to the brother.

The brother was shocked and peppered her with questions throughout the trip: "Sis, are you really reborn, is there really an apocalypse?"

"Sis, do I have a superpower? I read that everyone has superpowers in novels."

"Sis."

Ji Wanwan: "..."

After a 3-hour drive, they arrived at the refuge deep in the night.

The refuge was hidden in the abandoned resort; the main hall was hardly 15 square meters, and the walls, floor, and glass were all covered in dust and stains, making the room exceptionally dim.

Near the glass door was a simple cash register, which contained a saggy couch and a cabinet.

Next to the cash register was a corridor, with three rooms along its sides. On the left were two single rooms, on the right was a suite, and at the end of the corridor stood Robot 001.

Ji Wanwan walked down the corridor, first opening the door of a single room to take a look inside.

A simple wooden bed, cheap bedding, a wooden desk with chipped corners, and a backless plastic stool.

The other room was the same.

She felt somewhat disappointed and walked towards the suite on the other side.

The suite had a layout of two bedrooms, one living room, and one bathroom. The living room contained only a rotten leather sofa and a dirty coffee table.

The two bedrooms were furnished like the single rooms.

The bathroom was cramped, but fortunately, there was no strange odor; it was passable with some cleaning.

Ji Wanwan remained silent.

No matter, she had furniture in her space which could be set up nicely.

She decided to keep the 101 single room for herself and the 201 suite for her family.

The family set to work immediately.

Ji Wanwan took cleaning tools from the System Space.

Leveraging years of experience managing the household, Mrs. Ji assigned tasks to everyone based on their abilities.

Mr. Ji's job was to clear out the broken furniture from the refuge, Ji Xing was assigned to sweep and mop floors, and Mrs. Ji took a rag to clean around, resolutely tackling every nook and cranny.

As for Ji Wanwan...

Because she was physically weak, everyone only let her assist with light tasks like washing rags, handing over wrenches, or grabbing stools...

After a bustle of activity through the night, the three rooms were finally clean.

Mrs. Ji was quite pleased and told Ji Wanwan to bring in the furniture they had brought from home.

Following her mother's arrangement, Ji Wanwan took out the furniture piece by piece from the space, filling up both the entire 201 suite and 101 single room.

Once all rooms were set up, dawn had already broken.

Looking at the revitalized 201 suite and 101 single room, Ji Wanwan finally felt a bit of satisfaction.

After a quick wash, a tired Ji Wanwan returned to room 101 to rest a bit.

Just as she lay down, the voice of the System emerged beside her ear:

[New Task: Attract 1 Guest to the refuge, note: family members are not considered Guests.]

[Task reward: one water dispenser, one instant food vending machine, Host may choose to increase one physical attribute by 20 points]

[Task countdown: 23 hours 59 minutes 59 seconds]

[Who would want to live in this broken wilderness?]In an instant, Ji Wanwan was wide awake.

As the System was about to console her, [If all else fails, find a wild boar in the mountains.]

Ji Wanwan, however, seemed to recall something and slightly smiled: [No, the person I'm waiting for is about to arrive]
