Chapter 23
When the elevator door opened, Chu Xiu frowned when he saw the scene in front of him.
Because he saw large patches of blood everywhere on the ground at the elevator entrance.
There were even a few blood-colored marks as if something had been dragged across the floor. This immediately made Chu Xiu feel that something was wrong.
It seemed that the fourth floor had also been attacked by mutated humans.
However, after some thought, Chu Xiu felt that it was normal. After all, the fourth floor was close to the ground.
The people on the ground would definitely be drenched in the blood rain, so it would be very easy for an abnormality to happen.
At that time, if they were attracted by the people in the hotel, this scene would be created.
‘I have to hurry up. Absorbing the spirit origin pearl also requires time.
‘After finding the Spirit Orb in the toilet on the fourth floor, I must hurry to the room on the second floor to absorb it!’
Chu Xiu quickly confirmed his next plan. He held his pistol tightly and ran towards his destination.
Tap, tap, tap, tap.
Chu Xiu jogged along the corridor. It was unknown if it was because the hotel’s soundproofing was too good, but Chu Xiu did not hear any commotion along the way. Instead, it was extremely quiet.
Chu Xiu was very wary of this situation. In his opinion, this was definitely abnormal.
‘Let’s go to the toilet first. I remember that the information I gathered shows that there are six toilets in this hotel.
‘Three for men and three for women. That spirit origin pearl was found in the men’s washroom.’
Chu Xiu recalled the information he had gathered, and decided to look for the nearest bathroom first.
After passing by a turn, Chu Xiu saw the nearest bathroom.
Chu Xiu immediately slowed down, and carefully walked into the bathroom.
Carefully lifting the curtain

, Chu Xiu saw that there was no movement in the bathroom.
However, Chu Xiu didn’t dare to be careless. He carefully probed the cubicles one by one.
He didn’t miss a single corner, but he didn’t find anything.
‘It doesn’t look like it’s the one. I hope I can find something in the next bathroom!’
Chu Xiu thought to himself. Although he was a little anxious, he did not panic.
Chu Xiu originally planned on absorbing the first spirit origin pearl he obtained.
When his strength increased, he would find the next one.
However, the fourth floor looked very unsafe.
He could not guarantee that the spirit origin pearl would not be discovered by others.
One had to know that humans were not the only ones who could absorb this spirit origin pearl.
Infected monsters could also absorb them!
Of course, there was a limit to this absorption, but Chu Xiu could not guarantee that it would be safe.
Soon, according to the map on the wall, Chu Xiu quickly found the second bathroom.
This time, just as Chu Xiu approached, he hurriedly stopped in his tracks, and lowered his breathing frequency.
This was because he had heard movement in the bathroom. Just in case, Chu Xiu planned to probe first.
He looked around and saw a vase at the side. He immediately had an idea.
He went forward and grabbed a handful of soil. Then, he went to the bathroom door, and quickly threw it in.
The sound of soil falling to the ground could be heard.
“Howl!”
“Howl!”
As if a button had been activated, a roar immediately came from the bathroom!
Following that, Chu Xiu heard some footsteps coming from inside.
Chu Xiu immediately went to the side. Then, he raised his gun and aimed at the bathroom door warily.
“Howl!”
Soon, a figure pounced out of the bathroom, and a mutated human rushed out.
The other party’s red eyes were wide open, and his crazily distorted face was covered in blood.
After the other party rushed out, he sniffed fiercely before turning to look at Chu Xiu!
Bam! Bam!
Chu Xiu, who was already prepared, quickly aimed at the other party’s head, and shot him in the head twice!
However, a strange scene happened. The mutated human who had his head burst open did not fall.
Instead, he continued to pounce on Chu Xiu as if he didn’t feel anything!
Moreover, that was not all. Two more mutated humans appeared in the bathroom.
When they saw Chu Xiu, they let out strange cries and pounced at him!
Facing this situation, Chu Xiu was very calm. He continued to shoot.
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
Chu Xiu did not conserve bullets at all, and emptied the magazine.
“Howl!”
“Wuwu!!!”
“Howl!!”
However, this time, his target was not the head, but the other party’s knee.
After emptying the magazine, he broke the knees of the three mutated humans, forcing them to crawl.
However, the other party’s crawling speed was not slow, either. The three mutated humans crawled crazily towards Chu Xiu!
In the face of this situation, Chu Xiu calmly reloaded the magazine, and aimed at the other party’s head.
This time, he found the right place, and aimed at the back of their heads.
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
After three consecutive shots, the three mutated humans stopped moving.
‘Phew, even though I killed so many before my rebirth, I still feel that it’s very troublesome.’
Only then did Chu Xiu heave a sigh of relief. Without wasting any time, he hurriedly rushed to the bathroom to search.
At this moment, in the bathroom, Chu Xiu saw a gnawed female corpse.
It seemed that the other party had been eaten by the mutated humans who had rushed over after escaping here.
Moreover, before the infection kicked in, only half of her body was left.
Chu Xiu took a closer look, and realized that the woman was holding something tightly in her hand.
Chu Xiu carefully opened it, and realized that it was a button.
Other than that, there was nothing else. Chu Xiu was certain that the other party did not have any spirit origin pearls on her.
Raising his head and standing up, Chu Xiu carefully explored the cubicles in the bathroom.
Crack, crack, crack. The toilet doors opened one after another, but Chu Xiu didn’t discover anything.
As he pushed to the last door, he heard a click as it was locked.
Chu Xiu immediately became alert. He knocked on the door, and said, “Is there anyone inside? Someone say something!”
After Chu Xiu shouted, he did not hear a reply. However, he heard intense panting in the cubicle.
“I know you’re inside. Come out quickly. I’m counting to five. If you don’t come out, you’ll have to bear the consequences!
“Okay, I counted. Five!”
Chu Xiu had just shouted five when he kicked the toilet door open.
At the same time, it gave the person inside a fright. They did not expect Chu Xiu to suddenly kick the door open.
After kicking open the door, Chu Xiu saw the cubicle’s occupant.
A young man in a waiter’s uniform stood on the toilet bowl and looked at him in horror.
Upon seeing the other party’s appearance, Chu Xiu’s eyes immediately flickered.
He calmly asked, “You were inside. Why didn’t you make a sound just now?”
Upon hearing Chu Xiu’s question, the other party seemed to sense that Chu Xiu could communicate. He immediately heaved a sigh of relief, and said,
“Big Brother, I’m sorry. It’s not that I don’t want to talk. I’m really too afraid!
“You don’t know, but it’s crazy outside now. There are man-eating monsters everywhere!”
The other party spoke with a crying expression as he approached Chu Xiu.
“Stop right there. Do you know this person?”
Chu Xiu raised his gun to stop the other party from approaching. He pointed his chin at the female corpse on the ground.
