Chapter 11: Clearing the lumberyard

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The lumberyard camp was not far from the apocalypse merchant camp.

Fifteen minutes later, Fang Heng had reached the outside of the lumberyard camp.

He hid in a bush and observed in the dark.

At first glance, he saw hundreds of zombies occupying the lumberyard camp.

The area was densely packed and the whimpers of the zombies filled his eardrums. Anyone who saw this scene would feel their scalps go numb.

Fang Heng didn't expect that there would be so many zombies.

He rubbed his hands excitedly.

"Just in time. This will give me a chance to collect evolution crystal fragments!"

Fang Heng waved his hand and the ten zombies who had been following behind him immediately took action.

They slowly walked into the lumberyard camp with wooden spears in their hands.

The zombies in the camp didn't sense the ten 'intruders'. They just stood there foolishly.

"Chi!"

The zombie clone raised its spear and stabbed into the back of a zombie in front of it.

The zombie that was stabbed by the wooden spear slowly turned its head and glanced at its kind of zombie expressionlessly.

Ordinary zombies couldn't feel pain. Their minds were only occupied by the basic desire to eat meat. They wouldn't understand, nor would they think about why another zombie would suddenly stab them.

It continued to stand there in a daze.

The zombies in this lumberyard camp were like lambs waiting to be slaughtered. They stood there silently, being attacked by Fang Heng's zombie clones time and time again until they died.

[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed a weak zombie. 1 survival point.

[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed a strong zombie. 3 survival points.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed a strong zombie, 3 survival points, obtained evolution crystal fragment*1.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed…]

At this moment, Fang Heng was hiding in the bushes at the entrance of the camp, quietly reading the messages in the game log.

Hack, this game was awesome!

At first, watching zombies kill monsters was indeed a little exciting.

But after the initial excitement faded, Fang Heng, who was a little bored, sat down on the ground, took out a can of canned fruit from his backpack and started to eat.

It can't be helped, his talent skill was just too powerful.

In the zombie apocalypse world, getting a zombie clone as your talent was really useful!

Killing monsters without suffering any injuries!

Especially after the number of zombie clones was growing in magnitude! The efficiency of killing monsters had greatly increased.

If it was another apocalyptic world like the wasteland apocalypse, the slow-moving zombie clones would have already been cut into pieces by the mutated creatures.

It wouldn't have been like now, where the silly zombies were all standing where they were and letting you kill them.

[Hint: You have completed the clearing of the camp.]

[Hint: You have completed the mission of clearing the lumberyard camp. Please return to the apocalypse merchant camp as soon as possible and look for the apocalypse merchant Vettel to receive the mission reward.]

Three hours had passed by the time the game notification sounded.

It took three hours to strike those restless zombies to death. It was conceivable how time and effort ordinary players would have to take to clear out the zombie camp.

The zombie clones walked out of the camp one by one and threw the evolution crystal fragment that they dropped from killing the zombies in front of Fang Heng.

[Hint: You have obtained evolution crystal fragment*47.]

"I'm rich, I'm rich!" he thought to himself gleefully.

Fang Heng grabbed a bunch of shiny evolution crystal fragments from the ground and crushed them in his hand.

"Bang!"

A thick blood mist exploded in his palm. Fang Heng felt a weak force enter his body through his palm.

"Bang!!"

"Bang! Bang!!"

The blood mist exploded one after another.

[Hint: Your character's level has risen to level 5.]

The soil behind him stirred and five newly resurrected zombie clones joined the team.

Fang Heng was quite satisfied. His zombie army had expanded by one-third and its combat power had increased greatly.

After players reached level 5, normal evolution crystal fragments could no longer provide experience points. They needed a higher level of complete evolution crystals to upgrade further.

The method to obtain a complete evolution crystal was rather troublesome. Under normal circumstances, only elite monsters had a chance of dropping it.

There were other ways to obtain a complete evolution crystal. For example, the apocalypse camp had a small probability of selling a small number of complete evolution crystals. Some players could use special skills or talents to reassemble the fragments to obtain a complete evolution crystal.

Currently, it was still a little difficult to obtain a complete evolution crystal. Fang Heng would not consider it for the time being.

Fang Heng put the remaining 13 pieces of the evolution crystal into his backpack and led the zombie group into the abandoned lumberyard to collect materials.

10 minutes later, Fang Heng was surrounded by a pile of materials.

[Hint: Your zombie group has searched the lumberyard camp. You have obtained small barrels of gasoline*2, firewood*21, cooking pot*1, steel logging axe*33, log*291, abandoned parts*23, worn-out mountain bike*1, scrap material*2, rags*21, frozen dumplings*10, lumberyard worker's jacket*24…]

Good stuff!

A mountain bike!

Fang Heng's eyes lit up!

A treasure that could greatly increase the speed of exploration in the wild! A transportation tool!

In the forest environment, sometimes a mountain bike was even more useful than a military truck! It could greatly reduce the time to return home!

There was also the steel logging axe!

A large amount of wood was needed to build the shelter.

With the steel logging axe, the zombie clone could harvest wood more efficiently!

"I'm rich, I'm really rich!"

There were still so many finished logs, which saved him a lot of logging time.

Gasoline!

With generators, electricity could be generated, and the vehicle also needed gasoline as fuel. Whether it was in the early, middle or late stages, gasoline was an extremely important material!

Frozen dumplings!

That's great! They were going to be tasty!

Eh? There were even clothes?

Most of the ordinary clothes in the game did not have any attributes.

Fang Heng took a look at the clothing description.

Item: Lumberyard jacket

Description: When worn, it can increase defence by 1 point. (wearing a lumberyard jacket and lumberyard pants at the same time can increase logging efficiency by an additional 25%.)

1 defence point was not bad, but the suit was too ugly.

Fang Heng thought for a moment, then waved his hand to call the zombie clone to come over and let it put on the suit.

"Not bad, not bad, it fits very well."

After putting on the lumberyard suit, the zombie didn't feel out of place at all. It even gained 1 defence point.

Although 1 defence point was better than nothing for the zombie, the extra 25% of logging efficiency provided by the suit was what Fang Heng wanted.

The harvest after clearing out the lumberyard camp was amazing.

Looking at the materials piled up on the ground, Fang Heng began to worry again.

His backpack was not big enough now, so he could not bring all these things back at once.

It was going to be dark in half an hour, so it was not realistic to go back and forth between the shelter and the lumberyard camp.

Helplessly, Fang Heng could only bring some valuable food and logging axes, temporarily throwing the logs and other materials that were heavier on the ground.

The rest of the materials could not be wasted. After sunset tonight, he would let the zombies carry them back to the system shelter again and again.

Fang Heng packed his backpack full to the brim and rode his bicycle to the apocalypse merchant camp to report about the completion of the mission.

Report chapter

Chapter 12: Hidden Mission

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Oh? You completed the mission so quickly?!"

In the apocalypse merchant camp, Big Beardy was surprised to see Fang Heng return so soon.

"Very good, young survivor. You have done very well! Your performance has impressed me."

[Hint: You have completed the mission to clear the lumberyard camp. You have received the praise of the apocalypse merchant Vettel.]

[Hint: You have received 4,167 survival points.]

[Hint: Your friendship with Vettel has increased.]

[Hint: Because you completed the mission in a very short period, your friendship with the apocalypse merchant has increased significantly.]

"It's rare to see such an outstanding young man like you. Recently, a few of my friends are looking for someone like you. Have you heard of the Dark Knights?"

Dark Knights?!

It was a hidden mission!

Fang Heng was both surprised and happy.

His hidden score had reached the Dark Knights so quickly!

In the memories of this body, the Dark Knights were related to the main storyline mission of the game world. Only players with a hidden score higher than a certain level in the King of Gods' game were qualified to obtain it, moreover, there were quite harsh hidden trigger conditions.

In the past, Fang Heng even heard rumours in the gaming club that the Dark Knights were related to clearing the zombie apocalypse world.

"It seems that you've heard about it. The Dark Knights are an organization that was established after the disaster. They've been looking for ways to save the entire human race."

"An old friend of mine is a member of the Dark Knights. If you're interested, I can recommend you to join the Dark Knights."

"I'm very interested!"

"Very good. The Dark Knights need strong survivors, so you need to make some achievements to prove your capabilities."

"What do you need me to do?"

"There's a small town 200 kilometres away from here. There's a T-virus serum in the director's office on the third floor of the town's Community Hospital. I hope you can find it and bring it back safely to me."

"After completing the mission, I will take you to find the guide of the Dark Knights."

[Hint: Player has triggered the mission – find the T-virus serum.]

Mission name: Find the T-virus serum.

Mission description: Find the T-virus serum and hand it over to the apocalypse merchant Vettel (you can find the T-virus serum in the director's office on the third floor of the Community Hospital in Hope Town. You can also find the T-virus serum through other means).

Hint: As time passes, the anti-virus serum in Hope Town may be taken away or destroyed by the survivors ahead of time.

Mission time limit: 60 days

"The difficulty has increased so much all of a sudden?"

Fang Heng frowned and muttered to himself in a low voice.

During the apocalypse, there were a lot of zombies in the city. The probability of encountering mutated zombies in the city was also higher, and the danger was greatly increased.

In his original plan, the exploration of the city would at least be considered after the construction of the shelter was completed.

Fortunately, this mission gave him a full 60 days to complete. In theory, he only needed to find the serum before the other players.

This was the best chance for him to come into contact with the main storyline mission of the game world!

Fang Heng analyzed briefly and immediately chose to accept the mission.

There was no penalty for failure anyway!

"I will help you get the serum."

"I admire your confidence, survivor. I wish you success." Big Beardy nodded in approval. "Another suggestion, take advantage of the fact that the anti-virus serum has not been destroyed. The sooner you get it, the better."

Fang Heng understood that Big Beardy was hinting at him. The faster he completed the mission, the higher the reward provided by the game.

However…

He really couldn't complete the mission in such a short time!!

"Thank you." Fang Heng smiled bitterly and continued, "Also, I want to exchange for some materials."

After completing the mission, the 4,167 survival points reward was added to his account. Together with the 1,300 points which he obtained from clearing the zombies, Fang Heng now had a huge sum of 5,520 survival points!

The New World had just opened two days ago. Even an advanced gaming guild would not be able to raise such a huge sum of money.

"Of course, you can. The materials here are cheap and good. In addition, you've just helped me a lot. I can give you a friendship price."

"Thank you."

Fang Heng knew that this was the benefit of increasing his favorability. He could enjoy a small discount when he exchanged for materials.

Big Beardy waved his hand and an exchange list appeared in front of Fang Heng's eyes.

Fang Heng quickly browsed through the sales catalogue.

The apocalypse merchant provided a variety of materials in the exchange list. In addition to food, there were also some sophisticated high-grade materials, and even guns and ammunition were available for sale.

However, the price of guns was just as shocking.

Originally, Fang Heng only wanted to buy a few furnaces. However, when he saw the modified motorcycles on the list, he immediately hesitated.

The modified motorcycles had a detachable two-wheeled rack behind them, which could store a large number of materials.

The modified motorcycles were excellent tools for both travelling alone and transporting supplies!

The only drawback was that they burned oil! But he had just found two tanks of oil from the lumberyard camp…

Fang Heng was in a dilemma.

He wanted both of them!

However, in terms of price, he could only buy three furnaces or a modified motorcycle.

If only he had a little more survival points.

"What? You don't like these things?"

Seeing Fang Heng's distressed expression, Vettel thought that he was not satisfied, so he waved his hand with a smile and opened another exchange column in front of Fang Heng.

"Then take a look at this place. These are my private collections, and they are generally not open to the public. In addition, you can only exchange the materials here at the original price, and you are not allowed to have discounts."

Fang Heng's eyes lit up.

The apocalypse merchant had a hidden exchange column? This was the first time he had heard of it.

Big Beardy! He hid it quite well!

Seeing the goods provided by the apocalypse merchant in the hidden exchange list, Fang Heng's breathing became a little hurried for a moment.

There was a skill book for sale!!

What motorcycle! What forged furnace! Their combined value could not even be compared to this skill book!

Fang Heng reached out his hand and tapped on a skill manual. He looked at Vettel excitedly, "Uncle, I want this."

Item: Apocalypse survival – strength training

Type: Skill book (player has not mastered this skill)

Description: After learning this skill, you will be able to master the skill – strength training. Each level will increase the player's basic strength points by 0.2 points. This skill can be upgraded to level 20 (the skill level does not exceed the current player's level).

"Of course, you can. It's a very smart choice. You only need 1500 points to buy this skill book. It can help you to provide a decent fighting strength in your quest for survival."

Vettel shrugged. "What's better than investing in yourself?"

In the King of Gods' game, players could not obtain any attribute gains just by levelling up.

Therefore, a skill book like this had already been sold for millions in the real world!

Fang Heng licked his lips and pointed at the remaining two skill books in the exchange list. "And these two, physical training and agility training. I'll take these two books as well."

"Okay, a total of 4,600 survival points."

[Hint: You have spent 4,600 survival points to purchase the following skill books on strength training, physical training and agility training.]

Chapter 13: Skill Books

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Heh…"

After leaving the apocalypse merchant camp, Fang Heng almost could not hold back his laughter.

Several million!

Each of the three skill books in his hands could easily sell for several million!

Not to mention that this was a newly opened 'server'. After some time had passed, the price of the skill books would increase by several times!

Yesterday, Fang Heng was still worried about his bank debt. Now, a few million was within his reach!

Fang Heng put away the smile on his face and tapped the three skill books worth a few million on his head.

Without the slightest hesitation.

[Hint: You have learned the skill: apocalypse survival – strength training, apocalypse survival – agility training, apocalypse survival – physical training.]

"Isn't it just a few million? I'll earn more as time goes!" he thought.

The apocalypse merchant was right. Only by improving himself could he earn more money.

Fang Heng had a feeling that this game would completely change his fate.

Fang Heng tried to clench his fist to feel the changes in his body.

It seemed like…

It seemed like he was a little too strong, right?

Damn it!

Why didn't he feel anything when he spent close to ten million yuan?

Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Fang Heng did not delay any longer. He rode his mountain bike back to the cabin so that he could study the books properly when he got back.

Inside the cabin.

Liao Bufan watched helplessly as Fang Heng opened the packages of quick-frozen dumplings and threw them into the pot.

He swallowed his saliva.

Fragrant!

It was too fragrant!

The fragrance went straight into his nose.

In comparison, the two baked potatoes in his hands were simply tasteless.

Raising his head, Liao Bufan said seriously, "Fang Heng, I've decided to work with you in the game from now on."

"Okay."

Fang Heng shrugged. He had one more tool man.

"You have to take care of the food!"

"Deal."

"Okay!"

Liao Bufan waved his fist excitedly!

Tonight, he had dumplings to eat.

Jimmy drank a mouthful of hot tea and said, "Fang Heng, I may not have much time in the game during the day, so I'll have to trouble you."

"Of course."

In his mind, Fang Heng added, "It's all work. After all, the monthly salary is 30,000 yuan."

"My talent attribute can make crossbows. Due to the limitation of my energy, I can't make many crossbows every day."

"Thank you, this thing is a great help!"

In the early stages of the game, crossbows were used for long-range attacks. Whether it was hunting, dealing with zombies or dealing with other hostile survivors, they were extremely effective.

In the game, Jimmy probably didn't want to reveal his real identity, so he didn't like to talk too much. He nodded slightly.

At first, Jimmy scoffed at Fang Heng's plan to build a shelter in the game.

But now he knew that the Phoenix Sound Company must be behind Fang Heng's plan of building the shelter, Jimmy didn't mind giving him a little help.

The dumplings were soon cooked.

Lacking bowls and chopsticks, they took the glass bottles and divided the dumplings.

While the outside players were still hungry, they could hide in the system shelter and cook dumplings to eat.

Thinking of this, Liao Bufan was particularly excited. He ate one dumpling at a time and didn't forget to give his opinion.

"It's a pity there's no vinegar. Otherwise, it would be perfect."

"You're the nosy one." Liu Lin cleared her throat and said, "Fang Heng, Liao Bufan and I have searched about 20 kilometres to the west during the day."

"We've noticed two system shelters. Players and survivors are living in them. I've talked to the survivors and I'm going to bring a small amount of food to trade with them for cast iron and nails tomorrow."

"Also, we've found an abandoned prison. There are a lot of zombies in there. It's scary."

Liao Bufan swallowed a dumpling and added, "I think this is the biggest threat. Once the zombies escape, we'll be implicated. We have to be careful."

Fang Heng sensed something and raised his head.

"Prison?"

"Yes, all the people in there are infected. I wanted to get closer to see if I could find some weapons in the prison."

"D*mn! As soon as I got closer, zombies swarmed out of the house. There were at least thousands of them. Fortunately, they were stopped by the barbed wire outside."

Liao Bufan shuddered in fear at the thought of it.

"I don't think the barbed wire is very reliable. Luckily, we were able to escape quickly."

Fang Heng nodded and said, "This is a good place to build a shelter."

"What?"

Liao Bufan was so stunned that he slowed down when putting the dumplings into his mouth.

He thought that Fang Heng must be crazy.

"Brother, don't tell me you want to build a shelter in the prison? Give up this unrealistic idea!"

"Why?"

Fang Heng raised his head and asked, "Don't you think the prison is good? With the prison as the outer defence and the primary shelter on the inner side, we can have double protection and double security. We can slowly expand in the future."

"Brother, stop fooling around."

"Building a shelter in the prison means that we need to fill up the outer prison."

"The prison is too big. It will cost us a lot of manpower and resources."

After going through his analysis, Liao Bufan stuffed a mouthful of dumplings into his mouth. He felt smug and was waiting for the others to compliment him.

But he didn't get that compliment.

After a long time, Jimmy drank a mouthful of soup and said, "Young man, we don't lack materials now."

"Uh…"

Liao Bufan was speechless for a moment.

He glanced at the pile of materials that covered half of the wooden house and couldn't help but scratch his head.

"Alright, even so, how are you going to deal with the zombies in the prison?"

"Don't worry about that. I have a plan."

Fang Heng was confident.

Zombies?

Of course, they will all be stabbed to death!

"Fang Heng, you didn't see the situation back then. The prison is very big. There are at least three to four thousand zombies in there. It's not easy to deal with them."

"Yeah, I'll be careful."

Fang Heng remained calm on the surface, but in his heart, he was beaming with joy.

Three to four thousand zombies, that was seven to eight thousand survival points!

He hoped that there would be as many zombies as possible!

It would be best if he could gather ten thousand survival points and buy all the modified motorcycles and furnaces from the apocalypse merchant…

Liu Lin and Liao Bufan looked at each other. They saw the nonchalant look on Fang Heng's face.

Did he have a way to deal with zombies?

Report chapter

Chapter 14: Amazing Efficiency

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"Fang Heng, do you think we should reinforce this shelter tomorrow? The system's shelter protection will be ineffective the day after tomorrow."

Fang Heng lowered his head and thought for a moment.

There was still a huge gap in the number of nails needed to build a personal shelter. Tomorrow, he would have to clean up the zombies inside the prison.

The construction of a player's shelter could not be completed in less than two or three days.

They would have to stay in this shabby place for the next few days.

Fang Heng did not want to be forcefully pulled online by the game when the shelter was under attack at night.

The reinforcement of the cabin had to be put on the agenda!

Fang Heng patted Liao Bufan on the shoulder and said, "Then, brother, I'll leave the reinforcement of the shelter to you. You'll reinforce the cabin tomorrow and watch over it."

"Okay."

Liao Bufan agreed and patted his chest proudly.

"I forgot to mention that my talent is reinforcement and maintenance, it increases the reinforcement efficiency by 20% and reduces the consumption of materials by 20%. This skill saves materials. Do you know that you've got a good deal by hiring me?"

"Creak!"

The sound of the wooden door being pushed open interrupted Liao Bufan's bragging.

A zombie in a lumberyard uniform staggered in from outside.

The people in the cabin turned their heads to look at the zombie.

The zombie clone threw the piles of logs from its backpack onto the ground.

It didn't care about the stares of the people. It turned around and left the cabin again.

[Hint: Your zombie has completed a round of material transportation. You have gained logs*10. You have gained a skill – physical training experience point 20.]

[Hint: Your zombie has started a new round of material transportation.]

Liao Bufan opened his mouth.

This time, he was completely in awe.

He could finally see that Fang Heng didn't lack materials at all!

Fang Heng didn't notice the change in Liao Bufan's expression. His attention was now focused on the game log.

Eh? The zombie clone could also provide experience points for skills!

This was a really good deal!

After eating and drinking his fill, Fang Heng logged off first.

At 8:30 pm, Phoenix Sound Gaming Company was still brightly lit.

Most of the game cabins in the office were running and there were still many employees busy in front of their computers.

Fang Heng saw that his game cabin had an eye-catching note and a room card stuck on it.

"Mr Fang Heng, I've already booked room 1602 for you in the hotel next door. This is your room card. If you have any questions, please contact me. My contact number is 1272…"

After getting the room card, he returned to the hotel and went to sleep!

After leaving the company, Fang Heng flipped through his phone.

There were more than ten missed calls on his phone. All of them were from Xia Xi.

Fang Heng slapped his forehead.

Oh no, he forgot to tell Xia Xi about the interview today.

Fang Heng was in a good mood now. He casually replied to her message.

"Thanks to you, I've passed. I'll treat you to a meal when the time comes."

Something was wrong!

After sending the message, Fang Heng felt a little regretful. This tone was not suitable for the cold and aloof image of the original owner of this body!

Before he could retract the message, Xia Xi immediately replied.

"Okay, I'll take note. Wait for me to come back."

Fang Heng was stunned.

"Where are you going?"

"To Seoul, to play a match."

What match?

Could it be that Xia Xi was also a professional player?

Why did he not have any impression of this matter?

Fang Heng scratched his head, feeling a little frustrated.

He noticed that he still had a lot of lost memories.

"Qin Shuran is my good friend, she just took over the company recently, you have to help her too."

"Help her? No way, does the boss still need my help? As long as she doesn't fire me."

Fang Heng cursed silently in his heart, but he still obediently replied with a message.

"Okay."

The hotel room was very big and it was far more comfortable than the small and run-down room from before.

After a tiring day, Fang Heng slept until dawn.

The next day, Fang Heng returned to Team 3's large office as usual.

Early in the morning, the office was bustling with people.

Many workers carried game cabins into the office.

"Hey! I said, you guys! Be careful! These are advanced game cabins, don't break them!"

"Move it aside, don't put it near the window."

Shen Qing commanded from the side and his voice sounded a little hoarse.

Noticing Fang Heng's arrival, Shen Qing walked over to Fang Heng.

"Fang Heng, did you have a good rest last night?"

"Yes."

"President Qin had an urgent business trip last night. Before she left, she said that you should temporarily stay in Team 3 until she comes back…"

Halfway through, Shen Qing's expression changed slightly. He shouted at a porter beside him, "Don't leave it there! Don't block the intersection! That's for people to pass through!"

The porter looked impatient. "Then where do you think we should leave it? Hurry up, there are still a lot of them down there!"

"Wait a minute!"

"I'm sorry, the new district, District 8, has opened. There's a big shift in Team 3 business department. I'm so busy with all these."

Shen Qing smiled apologetically and patted Fang Heng's shoulder warmly, "In short, that's the general situation. I'll go back to work first. There are still a lot of rookies reporting for duty today. Feel free to use the row of gaming cabins over there. If you run into any problem, come and find me."

After saying that, Shen Qing hurriedly ran to look for the workers to cause trouble. "What the hell? The power cord of the gaming cabins is exclusive. There will be a problem if you connect it like that!"

Uh…

Are they all so busy?

Fang Heng was helpless.

Indeed, the zombie apocalypse new district, District 8, had opened. The business department of the gaming company was now focused on District 9 and was channelling resources in it. It was only right for them to be a little busy.

Not only the Phoenix Sound Gaming Company but other gaming companies, clubs, player guilds and even the federal government would give their full support to the development of District 8.

Fang Heng felt the pressure of competing with these giants.

He needed to hurry up and build a shelter.

Fang Heng randomly found a game cabin and returned to the game.

[Hint: While you were offline, your zombie group carried barrels of gasoline*2, firewood*21, logs*291, abandoned parts*23… your skill – basic physical training experience points 8,912.]

[Hint: Your basic physical training level has been upgraded to Level 5.]

[Hint: Your skill – basic physical training level can not exceed the character's level. Please upgrade the player's level.]

In just one night, the basic physical training level had reached level 5?

The efficiency was amazing!

In the game, most players needed a long period of training to level up their skills.

Since zombie clones need not rest, they could log in 24 hours a day, and Fang Heng could greatly reduce the time needed to level up his skills.

"Normal weight-bearing travel can provide the skill level of basic physical training. Then, the upgrade of basic strength training and agility training will most likely depend on actual combat."

Fang Heng muttered to himself.

"Fang Heng, you rascal, what are you muttering so early in the morning?"

In the small cabin, Liao Bufan held a wooden board in one hand and gestured towards the cabin window.

"When Uncle Jimmy came online, he said that he had something to do today and will only return tonight. He even left seven crossbows for you."

"Liu Lin went out alone to explore the surrounding environment.. I couldn't stop her, so I asked her to bring a crossbow with her."

Fang Heng picked up a completed crossbow and put it in his hand to observe.

Description: After loading, you can fire a crossbow arrow forward. There is a probability of causing bleeding damage. Using a special arrow can increase the damage.

"Good stuff. I'll leave one for you to use for self-defence."

Fang Heng threw a crossbow and some arrows to Liao Bufan and put the remaining five into his backpack.

Liao Bufan used a small stone hammer to hammer the nails on the window while saying, "Boss, this crossbow alone is not enough. If the enemy comes, my fragile body will not be able to withstand it."

Fang Heng glanced at him and said, "We have to eat extra food tonight."

"No problem! Leave it to me!"

Leaving the cabin, Fang Heng and his fifteen zombie clones marched toward the prison.

If they encountered any zombies on the way, they would kill them immediately.

If ordinary players saw more than ten zombies gathered together, they would hide far away and not dare to provoke them.

On the way, Fang Heng also took some time to study the attributes of the zombie clone.

Fang Heng put away the attribute panel.

The biggest advantage of the zombie clone was its HP. If it was a one-on-one fight, Fang Heng was sure that he was no match for the zombie clone.

Fang Heng did not delay along the way and went straight to the prison. However, it was inconvenient to walk in the forest environment, so it took him more than an hour.

From afar, Fang Heng looked at the prison at the foot of the hill.

The prison was backed by a mountain and there was a small path passing through the front door.

This was the first time Fang Heng had seen a road since he had played the game for two days.

There was a road, which meant that this place was probably at the periphery of the forest.

If he walked along the road, he might be able to leave the forest area soon.

Fang Heng retracted his gaze and continued to look inside the prison.

Just as Liao Bufan had said, the prison occupied a large area. In addition to the vast square, there were three large buildings inside.

Thick walls, huge iron doors, three layers of barbed wire, watchtowers standing tall and erect, as well as searchlights.

The prison's defensive measures made Fang Heng envious.

"These are all good points. It's best to build a player shelter here!"

Fang Heng continued to observe the square.

A large number of zombies were wandering in the square. Some of them were wearing prison uniforms, while others were wearing thick riot gear.

A small hole had been made in the inner gate of the prison.

Two of the three layers of the barbed wires had been broken by the zombies, leaving only the last layer to teeter.

Where could he enter the inner square of the prison?

Fang Heng scanned the surroundings.

He didn't dare to get too close. The breath from a living person would affect the zombies. When that happened, groups of zombies would be attracted by him. Even if he had a zombie clone, he wouldn't be able to handle it.

Found it!

It was right next to the gate. As long as he went through the sentry cabin next to the iron gate, the zombie clone could jump through the window of the sentry cabin and enter the prison.

Fang Heng quickly came up with a battle plan.

He stood on a small slope and carefully controlled the zombie clones to let them enter the sentry cabin.

After killing two zombies in the sentry cabin, the fifteen zombie clones went through the window and arrived at the prison square.

Done! The invasion has been successful!

Fang Heng clapped his hands and sat down on the lawn, ordering the zombies to freely clean up the zombies in the prison.

Then, he could hang up the phone slowly.

[Hint: Your zombie clone has launched an attack on ordinary zombies. The attack has hit the target. Your basic training – strength experience points 1.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone has launched an attack on ordinary zombies. The attack has hit the target. Your basic training – strength experience points 1.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed an ordinary zombie. You have gained 2 survival points.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone…]

Just as he had guessed, the zombie clone could increase his strength training skill experience points by attacking.

He estimated that the skill experience points would be maxed out very soon.

On the lawn, Fang Heng would occasionally flip through the game log. He was bored.

It wasn't that he wanted to slack off. As a human being, he really couldn't be of much help in this situation.

He just needed to wait for the zombies to gain experience.

Or, he could just go back to the cabin?

After thinking for a while, Fang Heng decided to check again. He took out the survival radio from his backpack and read the conversations of the other players on the survival radio to kill time.

"Eh? Someone has sent a private message? More than half an hour ago?"

Fang Heng opened his private message to check.

The person who sent the message was the player who sold him the location of the apocalypse merchant camp yesterday. His name was Lu Yu.

Lu Yu: "Boss, an SSS-level mission at the apocalypse merchant camp has been completed. Is it you?"

"Yes, what's the matter?"

"F*ck! ! It's really him! It's him!"

After receiving Fang Heng's confirmation, Lu Yu cried out in shock.

This morning, when he and his companion were accepting the mission at the apocalypse merchant camp, they discovered that the SSS-level mission had actually disappeared into thin air!

Almost subconsciously, Lu Yu thought of the big shot who had spent 20 points to inquire about the location of the apocalypse merchant yesterday.

Could it be that he had completed the mission?

After receiving an affirmative reply from Fang Heng, Zhou Yi, who was travelling with Lu Yu, also opened his mouth wide in disbelief.

"Impossible! How could this mission be completed?! He must have used some kind of trick, right?!"

Lu Yu looked at Zhou Yi and shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

He sent another message to Fang Heng.

"How did you do it?"

After a while, Fang Heng's reply came back.

"100 survival points."

"F*ck!"

Lu Yu cursed in a low voice.

"It must be a super awesome combat-type talent attribute. Otherwise, it would be impossible to clear out the entire camp!"

Zhou Yi lowered his head and analyzed the information in his mind. Suddenly, he raised his head and stared at Lu Yu.

"Let's go offline. Such a powerful boss would not be unknown in the game. Go check his identity and think of a way to poach him into our company."

"I've already said that he's a big boss. I don't think he's willing to come to your small and broken company, right?"

"Let's give it a try. Even if we can't poach him, it won't be a loss to work with him."

Zhou Yi was not even prepared to complete the mission that he had planned to complete today. He turned his head and looked at Lu Yu. "I'll go offline to check his information. Help me guard the simple bed."

"Hurry back."

"Tsk! Poor bastard!"

Seeing that the other party had no more words after making the offer, Fang Heng was a little disappointed and closed the private chat.

Fang Heng was also bored.

He didn't care about a mere 100 survival points.

But no matter what, freeloading was always the best.

In the game, the private chat was also restricted.

Players can have a limited number of private chats on survival radio every half hour.

But this number can be accumulated, up to five times.

[Hint: Your skill: strength training level 1.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is under attack.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is under attack.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is under attack.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is dead.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone will be resurrected in 24 hours.]

"What the hell!"

Fang Heng, who was lying on the grass, glanced at the game notification and sat up straight as if he was electrocuted.

The zombie clone was dead?!

Fang Heng looked at the prison square through the barbed wire fence.

A small part of the zombies wandering in the square had just been cleaned up.

What was that?!

Among the crowd of zombies, a zombie was very eye-catching. Its greyish-green skin had a hint of red and its eyes were shining with a strange red light.

It was a mutated zombie!

Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and immediately controlled the remaining zombie clones to stop attacking and retreat.

Mutated zombies were the products of ordinary zombies being mutated.

Compared to ordinary zombies, all of their attributes had a huge increase and they even had some special abilities.

Basic level zombies had special abilities such as strength enhancement and agility enhancement.

Other than that, mutated zombies might have higher intelligence than ordinary zombies.

At least, they would choose to fight back after being attacked.

The zombie clone that died before was probably killed because it provoked it.

"What a troublesome thing. Fortunately, I didn't go back to hack just now."

Fang Heng was a little glad. Otherwise, his zombie clones would all be killed here.

If he waited for the zombie clones to resurrect, he would have wasted 24 hours.

After all, the game had just started and it was a race against time. 24 hours of resurrection time was too long!

The good news was that this mutated zombie was still relatively quiet. As long as no one provoked it, it would just stand there quietly.

He needed to think of a way to get rid of it, or else he would not be able to continue 'hacking'.

After calming down, Fang Heng opened the game log of the zombie clone before it died and observed it.

[Hint: Your zombie clone is attacking the mutated zombie; the mutated zombie is dodging the attack. Your skill – basic agility experience points 1.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is under attack.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is under attack.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is attacking ordinary zombies. The attack hit the target. Your basic training – strength experience points 3.]

[Hint: Your skill: strength training level 1.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is under attack.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is under attack.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is under attack.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone is dead.]

On average, the zombie clone could attack once, while the mutated zombie could attack three times.

Moreover, the attack of the zombie clone had a higher chance of being dodged by the enemy.

Apart from that, the zombie clone took a total of 24 attacks from the enemy before it fell.

According to the attack efficiency, the other side's damage output was not high. It could only be said that it was slightly stronger than ordinary zombies.

In conclusion.

It was a zombie that evolved in agility form!

A few years of gaming experience allowed Fang Heng to make a quick judgment.

Mutated zombies in agility form were the most troublesome because their movement speed would also be greatly increased compared to ordinary zombies.

When the survivors encountered ordinary zombies, they could use the method of 'flying a kite' to slowly exhaust them to death, or they could just turn around and run away.

However, if they were mutated zombies with fast-moving speed, 'flying a kite' was simply courting death. Only by running away without turning back would they have a chance to survive.

"It's not difficult to deal with."

Fang Heng rubbed his chin and immediately came up with a plan.

He controlled his zombie clones to avoid the mutated zombie and chose the surrounding ordinary zombies as his targets first.

It was similar to how he used to play games. He first cleared out the 'random soldiers' around him, and then killed the largest elite monster.

Unfortunately, Fang Heng's zombie clones didn't have high intelligence. They didn't understand the difference between mutated zombies and ordinary zombies.

So, trouble came again.

Fang Heng had no way to hack. He could only control his zombie clones from a distance and kill the other zombies one by one.

After half an hour, a space was cleared around the mutated zombies.

Then, Fang Heng summoned his zombie clones back to his side.

In the morning, he brought out five crossbows from the cabin. He had one on him and had four left.

Now, Fang Heng distributed all five crossbows to the zombie clones.

From the very beginning, Fang Heng had never thought of risking his life to provoke the mutated zombie.

After all, the attack power of the mutated zombie was not high and it only targeted the zombie clones.

But it was a zombie!

A player would be infected with the virus if they were scratched, and they would die.

A one-hit kill! The attack power was limitless!

What a joke! Everyone only had three chances to be reborn and then they would die completely. Fang Heng cherished his life very much.

The zombie clones accepted Fang Heng's orders. Five of the zombies picked up the crossbows on the ground and loaded the crossbows with great effort.

Fang Heng had done several similar experiments before.

Apart from sticks and machetes, the zombie clones could also use some more complicated weapons.

For example, crossbows, guns and the like.

However, there were great restrictions on the use of these weapons.

They could only be used under Fang Heng's control where he could see them.

Once they left his sight and let the zombies 'hack', these zombies couldn't accept complicated messages such as 'If you encounter an enemy, aim the crossbow at your enemy and pull the trigger, then reload at the same time.'

The most they could do was swing the thing in their hands to hit the enemy.

Fang Heng understood that zombies were single-threaded creatures. During the hack-in phase, they could only receive one complicated command at a time.

Five zombie clones with crossbows staggered toward the prison.

They stopped three meters away from the barbed wire fence outside the prison.

It was about time.

Fang Heng estimated the distance and gave the order for the zombie clones to pull the crossbow.

"Chi!"

"Chi! Chi! Chi!"

The five zombie clones pulled the crossbow at the same time.

The arrow was shot out and struck the concrete ground not far away from the mutated zombie, making soft sounds.

The mutated zombie raised its head.

It noticed the zombie clones in the distance, then lowered its head and continued to think.

"It's my clone after all. You're not accurate enough…"

Fang Heng silently complained, then asked the clones to reload.

"Shoot!"

"Chi Chi Chi!"

This time, an arrow hit the shoulder of the mutated zombie.

"Wu!!!!"

The mutated zombie let out a cry and in anger, it quickly pounced on Fang Heng's zombie clone.

What a fast-moving speed!

It was only slightly slower than a normal person's running speed!

Fang Heng's eyelids twitched.

"Bang!!"

"Crack…"

The fleeing mutated zombie crashed into the barbed wire fence outside the prison and was firmly blocked.

"Roar! Hiss! Hiss! Hiss!"

The mutated zombie let out a strange sound and kept struggling, trying to attack the zombie clones outside the barbed wire fence.

Unfortunately, it lacked long-range attacks, so it couldn't do anything to the zombie clones on the other side of the barbed wire fence.

"Hehe, you don't know what else to do, do you?"

Fang Heng, who was hiding in the dark, chuckled and controlled the zombie clones outside the barbed wire fence to continue loading the crossbows.

Chapter 17: Upgrade

The crossbow arrows pierced into the mutated zombie's body one after another, releasing putrid black liquid.

The movement of the zombie clone was very stiff. Each round of loading the crossbow would take more than ten seconds.

Fang Heng wasn't in a hurry. All he needed to do was to hide in the dark and give out the commands.

Ten minutes later, the mutated zombie, which was full of arrows, let out a howl and fell to the ground unwillingly.

"Whew!"

Fang Heng wiped the sweat from his forehead.

He was a little tired.

He sat down with his back against a big tree and rubbed his swollen temples.

It was very tiring to control the zombie in this manner.

[Hint: Your zombie has killed the mutated zombie. Your skill: basic training – strength experience points 24.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed a mutated zombie. You have obtained 15 survival points and a complete evolution crystal (Tier 1)*1.]

Eh?

Amazing!

It dropped a complete evolution crystal!!

The sudden good news made Fang Heng excited again and his previous fatigue was swept away.

"Go quickly!"

Fang Heng commanded his zombie clones to climb over the sentry cabin and into the prison square and picked up the evolution crystal that was left on the corpse.

Item: Complete evolution crystal (Tier 1)

Item description: A special crystal that contains powerful strength. It can increase the player's character experience points (only effective on players below Level 10).

Fang Heng held the complete evolution crystal tightly in his palm.

"Bang!"

The crystal shattered.

A thick red mist gathered in his palm and was quickly absorbed by it.

[Hint: You have absorbed the complete evolution crystal (Tier 1). Your level has been increased to Level 6.]

[Hint: Due to the enhancement of your talent skill – split zombie clone, you have gained an additional zombie clone*6.]

The soil around Fang Heng's feet began to churn again.

"Chi! Chi!"

Grey-brown palms reached out from the soil one after another.

Soon, six newly-resurrected zombies stood behind Fang Heng.

One of them had just been killed by a mutated zombie, but after levelling up, six more zombies were added to the list.

This was a good deal!

Fang Heng thought that it would take some time for him to level up after reaching level 5, but he didn't expect it to be so fast.

Waving his hand, Fang Heng controlled the zombies to put down their crossbows and return to the prison to clear zombies.

Meanwhile, he slowly sat back down on the ground and began to make wooden spears for the newly resurrected zombies.

After the accident, Fang Heng gave up the idea of going back to the shelter to avoid any unexpected situations. He quietly sat on the grass and watched the zombies 'hack'.

[Hint: Your zombie group has obtained evolution crystal fragment*142, blueprint – grill, blueprint – shovel, blueprint – deer antler, recipe – golden crab, bandage*3, precision parts*4.]

After watching the zombies 'hack' for five to six hours, Fang Heng stretched himself and counted the rewards.

After a zombie died, there was a small chance that it would drop some rare things.

For example, making blueprints.

The antlers were not bad, when they were placed around the shelter, low-level zombies with no intelligence would rush to the antlers and commit suicide.

It could greatly increase the safety level in the early stages.

As for the barbecue grill and the recipe, they were a bit of a drag. Other than satisfying the taste buds, they were not very useful.

"That's strange. I'm not a chef. Why do I always get these things?"

"Besides, are you sure I can afford the ingredients for the golden crab?"

Fang Heng muttered to himself and tapped the blueprints and recipe on his head.

It was better to learn a few skills than have no skill.

[Hint: You have learned how to make antlers, shovels and grills.]

[Hint: You have learned how to cook delicacies – golden crab. Your cooking skill experience points 20.]

Fang Heng stood up to stretch his body while observing the prison situation.

About two-thirds of the zombies in the prison square had been cleared, and the remaining three buildings had not been searched at all. There were probably quite several zombies left in the buildings.

"It's a big project. Optimistically, it will take another day to clean it up. If there are mutated zombies in the buildings, it will be even more troublesome…"

Fang Heng muttered to himself, "The security level of the prison is much higher than that of the cabin. The faster we clear this place, the faster we can move."

[Hint: Your survival radio received an urgent message from your good friend Jimmy.]

Jimmy is in trouble?

The sudden game prompt made Fang Heng's heart skip a beat.

Previously, to prevent accidents from happening, they had added each other as friends in the game. They could contact each other privately through the survival radio.

Fang Heng had a bad premonition. He immediately turned on the survival radio and opened the unread message.

Lu Yu: "Boss, are we cooperating? Our company sincerely invites you to be our company's…"

"You want to poach me for nothing again!" Fang Heng thought.

Fang Heng didn't have the time to pay attention to Lu Yu. He didn't even finish reading his private message and went straight to the next one.

Jimmy: "Fang Heng, We've run into some trouble. You better go back to the cabin."

Fang Heng replied: "Okay, I'll be back soon."

Turning off the radio, Fang Heng controlled his zombie clones to return to the shelter. He took out a mountain bike from his backpack and rode it back to the shelter.

Compared to before he left, the shelter had been reinforced. The broken wooden windows had been re-sealed and the hole in the roof had also been re-sealed.

The gate of the shelter was closed as if it was facing a great enemy.

Was it an attack?

Fang Heng's heart sank and he pushed the door open.

Liao Bufan and the others were sitting around discussing something. When they saw Fang Heng, they raised their heads at the same time.

Fang Heng's gaze swept over Jimmy, who was playing with the crossbow in his hand.

"What happened?"

"We were robbed!"

Liao Bufan was very unhappy, he answered first, "Liu Lin went to trade with a group of players in the afternoon. I didn't expect that the other party didn't follow the rules and directly robbed the food. If Liu Lin didn't have the crossbow with her, something might have happened to her."

Fang Heng's expression changed slightly. He turned to look at Liu Lin.

"Are you okay?"

"I'm fine."

Fang Heng nodded and started to reflect.

Everything had gone too smoothly for the past two days. He had taken it for granted.

The crisis in the apocalypse didn't only come from zombies, but also players!

It was indeed very dangerous to let Liu Lin barter with other players alone.

Fortunately, Liu Lin was fine.

Liu Lin felt a little guilty. She thought that she was an experienced player, which was why she dared to barter with other players alone. She did not expect to be tricked.

"They were already prepared. In the beginning, the person I was trading with was a woman. She was very cooperative and had already prepared the goods to trade with me. I was a little careless.. I did not expect that just as I took out the food, several people appeared around me and forced me to hand over the food."

Chapter 18: Small Stone Hammer

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

"After that, when they saw that I took out my crossbow to defend for my life, they probably felt threatened and I got the chance to escape."

Liu Lin roughly explained what had happened.

"I'll remember this! Next time, I'll get back at them!"

Liao Bufan was extremely displeased that his materials had been stolen for nothing. However, he felt a little helpless and hence, said those harsh words.

What should he do?

Should he rush over and fight with the other party?

To vent his hatred was one thing. However, doing so would only hurt himself more than the enemy.

It was not worth it.

The vast majority of players could only admit that they were unlucky when they encountered such a situation.

"Let me remember this grudge first!" he thought angrily.

There was still time in the future. There would always be a chance to slowly settle the score by then.

Liu Lin knew very well that she could only blame herself for being careless and admitted that she was unlucky.

At that moment, Fang Heng raised his head and asked, "How many are there? How strong are they?"

"Fang Heng, don't be rash."

Liu Lin sensed that Fang Heng's tone was not right. She advised, "Now is not the time to fight these people head-on. There will be plenty of opportunities for revenge in the future."

She had misunderstood.

Fang Heng softened his tone and said, "I know. I want to know how many are there?"

"I see five people, but their shelter is medium-sized. It can accommodate up to 12 people."

Fang Heng nodded and fell silent again.

Liao Bufan saw that Fang Heng's expression was not very good, so he tried to persuade him, "Fang Heng, why don't we just forget about it this time? At most, we won't trade with them in the future."

Liu Lin pursed her lips as well. "I was very careful when I traded. I traded in batches, so I only lost a few packets of instant noodles. We can accept this loss, but I will be more careful next time."

Fang Heng didn't say anything. He had a very bad premonition, and he kept lowering his head to think about something.

This was the first time Liao Bufan saw Fang Heng so serious.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little quiet, he couldn't help but persuade him again. "Fang Heng, we don't have to go head-to-head with these people right now. It's just a few packets of instant noodles. We don't lack this little bit of materials, right? At most, I'll eat less tonight…"

Liao Bufan's voice grew softer as he spoke. It was obvious that he didn't have enough confidence in this matter.

"No, I'm not thinking about this. This little bit of food loss is nothing to us."

Fang Heng raised his head and explained to the two of them.

"Moreover, I'm also responsible for this matter. I shouldn't use high-value food to trade with other players at this time."

"What?"

Liao Bufan scratched his head, looking as if he didn't understand.

Jimmy took a sip of hot tea and said slowly, "A man with wealth is guilty of a crime."

"Yes, think about it from another perspective. If you were them and found out that a neighbour had extra food to trade when there was a lack of food, what would you do?"

"If I'm them?" Liao Bufan thought for a moment, and then subconsciously blurted out, "Of course, I would rob him!"

Fang Heng raised his head, a worried look flashing across his face.

"That's right. I am just worried that they will come and rob us of our materials."

Liao Bufan understood.

"This… can't be?"

Liu Lin became nervous when she heard this.

"If they come, then don't blame me." Liao Bufan shook his arms and looked fierce. "If they are going to rob me of my food, I am going to fight them to the death. When that happens, it will be either you or me who will die."

"I don't know. Just be careful. We have enough materials now. Don't go out during the day for the next two days. All of you stay here and wait for two days before moving to a new shelter."

Jimmy put down the glass in his hand and shook his head. "Fang Heng, it's too late. We might not make it in time."

Everyone looked at Jimmy in confusion.

"I went to check around the cabin after I heard Liu Lin talk about the food being stolen. I found a stranger's footprint in the bushes. I guess someone has been snooping around our cabin."

"Ah?"

Liu Lin's expression changed slightly and she said anxiously, "That's impossible. Did I make a mistake? I checked carefully when I came back. I was sure that no one was following me."

"I didn't see wrongly. I noticed that besides human footprints, there were also animal footprints. I deduced that it was some kind of a large dog."

Jimmy explained.

"This isn't your problem. I think a certain player has the talent to summon hounds. They tracked your scent and found this place."

It was over! The base camp was exposed!

Liao Bufan slapped his forehead.

"Fine, we'll take it as it comes. Let's fight it out with them. Old man, help me get more crossbows and arrows. I'll reinforce the cabin while I have some time."

Liu Lin said, "I've prepared ten portions of painkillers and bandages. I only have two bottles of rapid healing potion. Because I need liquorice, I can't mass-produce them…"

Liao Bufan and Liu Lin had begun to discuss how to defend against the enemy.

Fang Heng didn't say a word. He lowered his head and pondered.

The passive defence plan was frustrating and it was a waste of time. It would disrupt his plan to build a shelter.

In the early stages of the game, time was precious, and Fang Heng didn't want to waste it.

Most importantly, if they fought, he wouldn't be able to utilise the combat ability of the zombie clones in this defensive battle.

The zombie clones were still too stiff.

What about taking the initiative to attack?

A few minutes later, an evil plan was formed in Fang Heng's mind.

Fang Heng raised his head again.

"Liu Lin, where is the base of these people?"

"They're in the northwest of our camp. It'll take at least 90 minutes to get there."

Liu Lin was confused.

"Why are you asking this?"

"Clap!"

Liao Bufan clapped his hands suddenly as if he had realized something.

"I see! I understand!"

"Catch them off guard!"

Liao Bufan was also a militant by nature. He thought that he had understood Fang Heng's strategic intention, so he patted Fang Heng's shoulder excitedly.

"The best defence is to attack! Brother Fang Heng, I understand. Let's go! We'll go there first and sneak attack one or two of them. Let them know how powerful we are."

"When the time comes, they won't dare to come and find trouble with us."

"I've been displeased with those people for a long time."

"Attack my a*! This boor!!!"

Fang Heng sighed under his breath and silently moved Liao Bufan's hand away from his shoulder.

"I didn't say that I wanted to fight them head-on. Anyway, I already have a plan. Leave this matter to me. I'll keep watch tonight. All of you go offline to rest first. I still need your help during the day tomorrow."

"Huh? Go offline and rest?"

Liao Bufan widened his eyes. He wondered if he had heard wrongly.

He and Liu Lin looked at each other, and countless question marks appeared in their minds.

What was Fang Heng trying to do?

Why did he take the initiative to keep watch tonight?

His summoned zombies were indeed good at collecting materials. However, they couldn't deal with the other players just by relying on these zombies, could they?

Fang Heng didn't care about the gazes of the others. He slowly sat down in front of the bonfire and began to prepare the materials for the night.

Chapter 19: Game Mercenary

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Chen Gui was a federally registered game mercenary.

He received quests in the game to earn money.

In the game mercenary world, he had a famous nickname, Prisoner Snake.

After entering the game's new 'server', he immediately discovered a large-scale system shelter and gathered a nearby group of villain players with combat-type talent through the survival radio.

Prisoner Snake successfully united these people into a small team and became the leader of the team.

This team was very powerful in the early stages. He felt that this was a god-given opportunity and he might even have a chance to become an overlord in the game.

In front of the bonfire in the shelter, Prisoner Snake and his subordinates celebrated today's harvest.

"Hahaha, Ah-er, well done! You found that b*tch's nest. I'll give you credit this time!"

Lin Ah-er touched the hound by his feet and laughed proudly, "No prey can escape Ray's nose."

"Hehe, Brother Snake, we've done some investigation. There's the girl and a thin old man there. Both of them don't have much combat ability. We'll definitely take them down tomorrow."

"Mmm, let's eat to our fill tonight. We'll go there to ambush them at dawn tomorrow. No matter who comes out from there, we'll kill them directly."

Prisoner Snake's face was full of viciousness.

He wasn't a man of faith and did not display kindness to others. When he was a mercenary, killing people in the game was a common occurrence. He didn't have any psychological burden.

"Just kill all of them and steal their materials."

"Hehehe."

A rather sweet and charming-looking woman giggled as she sat on Prisoner Snake's lap.

"Brother Snake, don't kill and fight all the time. Leave a few people alive and ask them how they found so much food in the game. That way, we won't have to be on tenterhooks all day."

Prisoner Snake's eyes lit up as he touched Qiao Na's smooth legs. "Good, good, good. You're the smart one. I'll listen to you. How do you think I should reward you tonight?"

"Aiya, Brother Snake doesn't pity me at all…"

As she said this, Brother Snake suddenly frowned.

"What's that sound?"

"Shh."

Brother Snake became alert. He signaled all the players to keep quiet.

"Dong!"

There was another sound.

It wasn't very loud, but it wasn't soft either.

It seemed to be the sound of a collision?

"Dong!"

The sound came from outside the shelter.

"Dong!"

As they traced the source of the sound, everyone couldn't help but look at the wooden wall behind Brother Snake.

It seemed like someone was knocking on the wall of the cabin?!

"Dong! Dong!"

The frequency of the knocking became higher and higher.

The sound began to ring out in all directions in the shelter.

For a moment, the players in the shelter all broke out in cold sweat.

What was going on?

Why was there such a strange sound?

Could it be that the zombies had invaded?

That wasn't right!

The game's 72-hour protection time had not yet expired, so the zombies would not take the initiative to attack the shelter during this period!

Moreover, hearing such a loud noise, there must be a lot of zombies attacking from the outside!

Could it be a player invasion?!

That was even more impossible!

At night, the zombies would go into a 'berserk' state and all their attributes would be enhanced.

In addition, the viewing distance of the players at night was very short, so early-stage players would not be able to act at night!

"Dong! Dong! Dong!"

The hammering sounds became more and more frequent and louder, as if there was a circle of enemies surrounding the cabin.

It was too terrifying! What on earth was outside?

[Hint: Your shelter is under attack.]

[Hint: Your shelter's safety level is decreasing.]

[Hint: Please repair your shelter and protect it from attacks.]

[Hint: Your shelter's current safety level is 12. As the safety level decreases, the maximum number of players that can be accommodated in the shelter will gradually decrease.]

Everyone's expression changed again.

They did not know what was outside, but if this continued, the shelter might not be able to survive!

"Calm down. What are you afraid of?"

Brother Snake pretended to be calm. He pointed at one of his subordinates and said, "Wang Shao, go out and take a look!"

Wang Shao was also a mercenary who did not say much.

He nodded and raised the baseball bat in his hand.

Under everyone's eyes, Wang Shao slowly walked to the wooden door and slowly reached out his hand, preparing to push it open.

"Dong!"

Before Wang Shao was ready to open the door, the wooden door suddenly let out a "Dong" sound.

Wang Shao was startled by the sudden sound and took half a step back.

"Humph! You're playing tricks!"

Wang Shao was enraged and pushed the door open.

An ugly zombie was blocking the door with a small stone hammer in its hand.

"Ah!!!"

Qiao Na was so scared that her face turned pale and she screamed loudly.

"It's a zombie! ! You're crazy! Wang Shao, close the door!!"

"Get lost!"

The veins on Wang Shao's forehead bulged. He shouted and swung the baseball bat at the zombie's head. Then, he raised his leg and kicked the zombie back a few steps.

Taking advantage of the gap, Wang Shao quickly poked his head out and looked out the door.

Wang Shao's scalp went numb when he saw what was happening outside!

It was too dark to see clearly at night, but with this glance, he saw at least five or six zombies swinging hammers at the wall of the shelter.

Wang Shao quickly retreated and closed the wooden door tightly.

He panted heavily and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

"What's going on outside?"

"What's going on? Tell me!!"

Wang Shao took a deep breath and said, "There are at least a dozen zombies smashing the wall."

Hearing this, everyone's faces turned pale.

At least seven or eight? How could they fight?

For a moment, the sound of hammering echoed throughout the shelter like a life-threatening talisman.

"What should we do? What should we do?" Qiao Na was scared out of her wits. She held Brother Snake's hand tightly and begged for help, "Brother Snake, think of something! I don't want to die! I don't want to die!"

"Shut up! B*tch, what are you doing?!"

Prisoner Snake was in a terrible mood. He slapped Qiao Na with his palm.

He had no idea what to do!

"Let's fight it out with them!"

Prisoner Snake's eyes turned red and his blood raged with anger.

If this continued, the shelter would be destroyed and they would all die!

If they fought, there might be a 50% chance of survival.

"Let's go! It's just a few nights of zombies! We have so many people, and we're still afraid of a few zombies!" Prisoner Snake took out a steel rod from his backpack and led the way to the door.

"Bang!"

Prisoner Snake kicked the door open and hit the zombie's head with the rod.

The zombie was hit by the rod and staggered back a few steps.

In the cabin, Liao Bufan and Liu Lin didn't go offline.

Fang Heng had been urging them to go offline to rest.

However, how could they sleep peacefully under such circumstances!

After all, Fang Heng sitting in front of the bonfire in a daze was not reassuring…

Both of them were trying their best to prepare for the upcoming fierce battle.

Jimmy, on the other hand, was holding a cup of hot tea as usual.

He was still online purely for the sake of playing the game for a longer time.

To be honest, Jimmy also wanted to see how this young man would deal with this crisis.

Fang Heng, who was sitting in front of the bonfire, seemed to be in a daze, but in fact, he had been staring at the game log.

Fang Heng's eyes lit up.

"You can't hold it in anymore? Your endurance is bad, brother."

Fang Heng licked his lips and muttered softly.

"Our game has just begun."

"Bang!"

Brother Snake flipped a zombie to the ground with a steel rod.

Seeing how brave Prisoner Snake was, the players became more aggressive. They waved their wooden sticks and came out of the shelter. They stood behind him, ready to fight to the death with the zombies.

If the shelter was destroyed, everyone would die here.

Prisoner Snake's eyes were full of killing intent.

However, even if he was determined to die, he didn't dare to step out of the light range of the cabin.

The zombies gathered at the door one by one.

Both sides were in a stalemate for more than ten seconds.

Prisoner Snake felt tired of holding the steel rod in his hand.

He was too stressed and he was very nervous.

His hands were full of sweat.

However, what he didn't expect was that after a short stalemate, the zombies surrounding the cabin retreated like a tide.

What was the meaning of this?

Why did they suddenly retreat?

Just as Brother Snake was puzzled, someone shouted behind him.

"Brother Snake is awesome!"

"They ran away! Haha! They all ran away!"

Hearing the players behind him discussing it, Prisoner Snake was relieved. Although he was panicking, he still tried to maintain the dignity of a leader in front of everyone.

He adjusted his stiff facial muscles, turned around and smiled disdainfully. "I thought it was something else. Is that it? No matter how many of them come, they won't be enough for me to kill them!"

[Hint: Your zombie clone has been attacked and is trying to dodge.]

[Hint: Your zombie clone has failed to dodge.]

[Hint: Your zombie team is retreating.]

[Hint: Your zombie team has completed the retreat command and is standing by.]

In the small cabin, Fang Heng added a piece of wood to the bonfire and took out a can of coffee from his backpack.

"Gulp, gulp, gulp…"

After finishing the can of coffee in one go, Fang Heng let out a sigh of relief.

"Phew!"

Awesome!

In terms of taste alone, the coffee in the game was much better than the coffee in the real world.

He was even a little reluctant to finish it.

Fang Heng opened another can of coffee for himself.

"Ugh…"

Seeing Fang Heng drinking so boldly, Liao Bufan was also a little envious. He said, "Brother Fang Heng, it's already so late and you're still drinking coffee? Aren't you afraid that you won't be able to sleep at night?"

After drinking the coffee in the game, the effects were astonishing. After drinking a can of coffee, one couldn't fall asleep for an entire night. There was even an additional state called 'excitement', which could slightly increase the recovery speed of the player's energy points.

"Sleep? I've already said that I'll be on my own tonight. You guys should rest early." Fang Heng smiled, giving off an unfathomable feeling. "I'm going to have a lot of fun tonight."

Jimmy glanced at Fang Heng. Seeing that he was holding onto a pearl of wisdom, he smiled and nodded. "Okay, then I'll have to trouble you tonight. It's time for me to sleep too. I'm getting old and can't take it anymore."

As he spoke, Jimmy lay down on the simple bed and went offline.

Liao Bufan blinked his eyes and looked at Liu Lin who was beside him.

These two guys were fearless!

They could sleep in such a dangerous situation!

"Hurry up and go offline."

Fang Heng crushed the leftover cans, broke them into scrap metal and threw them into the storage box before starting to chase them away.

"I still need you guys to work during the day tomorrow! Are you trying to slack off?"

"Alright."

Liao Bufan was a little reluctant, but thinking about it carefully, there wasn't much use for him to stay here. It was better to go offline to recover his energy and prepare for the battle tomorrow.

Maybe Fang Heng had a plan?

Liu Lin glanced at Fang Heng worriedly. Seeing that he was waving his hand to urge her to go offline, she sighed in her heart.

She hoped that he would be alright.

After finishing the two cans of coffee, Fang Heng, who was sitting in front of the bonfire, was full of energy and fighting spirit.

"Come on, brother, let's continue playing. We're just getting started."

Fang Heng muttered to himself as he opened the game log and controlled the zombies in the outside world.

"Brother Snake is awesome. The moment they see Brother Snake, these zombies will shit their pants."

"Aren't they just zombies? With Brother Snake here, what are we afraid of? We'll kill as many as we want!"

"In a few days, Brother Snake will lead us to rob a shelter. When that time comes, we'll be the king of the game!"

Prisoner Snake was still afraid of what had just happened, but he still pretended to be calm.

"They say that the zombies at night are very scary, but that's all they are."

Brother Snake still couldn't understand why the zombies had retreated.

After chatting for a while, Prisoner Snake felt sleepy, so he waved his hand, "Who's keeping watch tonight? Everyone else, rest early. It's just a little harassment. It's not a big deal, but you're all so excited. Tomorrow morning, we still need to…"

"Dong!"

There was the sound of hammering.

The players who were about to return to their beds and go offline to rest froze on the spot.

Almost at the same time, everyone shut their mouths.

It couldn't be!

Could it be…

The room was extremely quiet. Everyone remained silent, praying that they had heard wrong.

"Dong! Dong!"

The familiar sound of hammering was heard again as if it was hitting the hearts of every player.

They didn't hear wrongly!

The zombies were back!

"F*ck! Is there no end? Not again?"

The hammering did not stop. Instead, it was getting louder and louder, coming from all directions.

Prisoner Snake gritted his teeth and raised his steel rod, "Let's go! Let's fight!"

Pushing open the door, Prisoner Snake used his steel rod and swept away the zombies that were attacking the shelter with their stone hammers.

Under the attack, the zombie staggered a few steps back.

It didn't attack, but slowly staggered backwards and hid in the darkness.

In the blink of an eye, the surrounding zombies quickly retreated into the darkness again.

The sound of stone hammers gradually disappeared from the shelter.

The players who followed Prisoner Snake looked at the darkness and their hearts sank to the bottom.

The darkness was like the mouth of a giant beast, swallowing all the zombies.

"Brother Snake, what should we do?"

"Should we chase after them?"

"Chase my a*s! How could they not see through such a simple trap? These idiots!"

Prisoner Snake had nowhere to vent his anger.

At night, the visibility in the wild was only at most two to three meters long.

Under such circumstances, no one could survive if he was surrounded by zombies.

How could Prisoner Snake gamble his life on such a small chance of survival?

Prisoner Snake gritted his teeth and said, "Don't chase after them. Let's go back first."

Back in the cabin, everyone's morale was low.

The atmosphere in the room was so heavy that it was scary.

No one said anything and no one went offline to rest.

They were all worried, worried that the annoying hammering sound would come back again.

Qiao Na curled up in a corner and shivered.

Everyone in the room had a premonition that this sound would appear again.

What one hoped for came true.

Less than five minutes later.

"Dong!"

In the quiet cabin, the sound of the hammer hitting was very clear.

"Damn it!"

It was happening again!
