Chapter 51: Better Equipment
The machete itself has high damage, and there was added damage from the skill as well as the extra attack from the whetstone.
One slash could easily kill a zombie.
The success rate of the 'dismemberment effect' was much higher than Fang Heng had expected, with almost two-thirds of the probability being triggered.
In addition, Fang Heng had a perceptive ability that was as high as 15 points and this was twice as high as an ordinary player. It was enough to predict the enemy's movements.
Fang Heng felt like he was playing a lawn mowing game.
Although it was exhilarating, the continuous use of the machete also increased the consumption rate of the vitality points.
Fang Heng tried to adapt to the attack of the machete and slowed down the pace of his attacks.
Hao Zhou led the team across two street corners quickly as more and more zombies were gathering toward them.
The team was still moving at a high speed, but the pressure on them was increasing and their speed was starting to slow down.
"Be careful!!"
Hao Zhou suddenly realized that there was a fast-approaching shadow on the right side of his line of sight.
Fang Heng also sensed an early warning.
He turned his head to look.
A mutated zombie suddenly rushed out from the shop on the right side, directly pouncing towards Kun Ta.
"Shoo!!"
Kun Ta threw a punch.
The mutated zombie nimbly moved to the side to avoid the punch.
"It's an agile mutated zombie!"
"Bang…"
The mutated zombie stomped heavily on the ground and jumped towards Sister Li, who was in the middle of the team.
It was extremely fast. While it was still in the air, it had already raised its sharp claws high.
Fang Heng's agility attribute was now as high as 9.8, so he could catch the movements of the mutated zombie.
Just as he was about to switch to a shotgun to shoot the mutated zombie, Fang Heng suddenly sensed something and turned his head to look at Hao Zhou.
The veins on Hao Zhou's neck bulged as he shouted.
"Bind!"
Hao Zhou covered his forehead with one hand and pointed at the mutated zombie with the other, his face showing extreme pain.
It was a mental shock!
It was Hao Zhou's special skill!
The mutated zombie in the air instantly stiffened, and it fell from the sky in the same posture as it was about to attack a second ago.
"Leave it to me!"
Fang Heng shouted and quickly put the shotgun back into his backpack. He strode forward and swung his machete.
The machete slashed forward.
"Chi!"
A slash.
The mutated zombie's head flew up.
[Hint: Your attack has a 'dismemberment' effect.]
[Hint: You have killed the mutated zombie-agility enhancement. You have gained 23 survival points.]
Fang Heng raised his hand and absorbed a complete evolution crystal left behind by the mutated zombie into his palm.
Hehe! He successfully stole from the zombie!
Fang Heng noticed that the others were looking at him, so he put away his machete and said expressionlessly, "It's just so-so."
He killed a mutated zombie in one swift move. This move shocked Fang Heng's teammates.
Most of the ordinary players would run as far as they could when they encountered a mutated zombie.
Now, this mutated zombie had been killed by Fang Heng in just one move…
It was a disgrace to the mutated zombies…
However, when they thought of the special attributes of the machete, they acknowledged its power.
He was lucky to trigger the 'dismemberment' effect to create such a terrifying effect from the instant kill.
The appearance of the mutated zombies made the team more careful.
However, as they gradually entered the town, more and more zombies surrounded them.
The team seemed to have gradually fallen into a stalemate, and their speed became slower and slower.
Amidst the chaotic battle, Kun Ta kicked the attacking zombie on the right.
According to his plan, this kick would be able to repel the zombie, and then he would use his punch to blow its heads off!
However, Kun Ta didn't expect that this kick of his felt like a kick on an iron plate.
The zombie didn't retreat. Instead, it violently rebounded and its body started swaying backwards involuntarily.
That was bad! It's a mutated zombie!
It was a mutated zombie that enhanced power direction!
Kun Ta broke out in cold sweat and quickly adjusted his body's balance.
He did a quick mental calculation on how to deal with the situation in front of him.
He was going to suffer!
Seeing the mutated zombie's claw coming at him, Kun Ta was suddenly pulled to the side by a hand.
"Let me do it!"
Fang Heng keenly sensed the mutated zombie mixed in with the ordinary zombies. He pulled Kun Ta away and directly switched to the shotgun.
"Boom!!"
A gunshot was heard.
The mutated zombie was hit by the shotgun at close range. Its body swayed and it took a few steps back. After the hit, the zombie had a double negative status of stiffness and bleeding.
"Wow, it's quite hard…"
Fang Heng raised the shotgun with one hand, completely ignoring the powerful recoil of the shotgun. He took another step forward.
He pulled the trigger.
"Boom!"
The mutated zombie was blown away and exploded into bloody pieces.
[Hint: You used the shotgun to kill the mutated zombie-strength enhancement. You have gained gun mastery experience points 30. You have gained 29 survival points.]
The gunshots attracted everyone's attention.
Everyone subconsciously turned to look at the big killer weapon in Fang Heng's hand.
Shotgun?
It really was a shotgun!!
Envious! Envious!
He actually had a shotgun, a luxury item that only appeared in the middle and later stages of the game?
After all this time, he was actually a rich player!
Now they knew that Fang Heng was being modest when he said that his equipment was not bad!
How long had it been since the game started? Was it possible to find a second shotgun from a survivor?
No way.
"Quick! Don't just stand there!"
Hao Zhou shouted to get everyone's attention.
The gunshots attracted more zombies nearby.
For a moment, the team realized that they were surrounded by zombies.
Seeing that the road ahead was almost blocked by zombies, Hao Zhou shouted, "Sister Li, open the barrier!"
Buzz..
A pale white barrier appeared and covered the players.
In an instant, the zombies outside the white barrier quietened down.
They were not able to sense Fang Heng and the others, so they had no way to attack and quietly stayed where they were.
They quickly cleaned up the remaining zombies inside the barrier.
Kun Ta came up to thank them.
"Thank you, Fang Heng. If it weren't for you, I would have been in trouble."
"You're welcome. We're teammates. It's our duty."
Hao Zhou quickly identified the location of the Community Hospital, then waved his hand and said, "Let's go! Over there, follow us!"
The perceptive protection barrier was activated as Sister Li moved. They only needed to get rid of the zombies inside the barrier.
With the help of Sister Li's barrier, the team's speed increased once again.
Only a talent like Sister Li was worthy of being an S-rank!
Fang Heng was secretly praising her in his heart. He raised his machete and followed the team to continue killing zombies.
In less than five minutes, the group arrived in front of the Community Hospital.
The windows of the entire community hospital had been nailed shut by wooden planks. Iron gates had been lowered outside the glass doors of the entrance, and several layers of wooden planks had been reinforced.
For a time, the crowd actually couldn't find the entrance to the Community Hospital.
Kun Ba and Kun Ta both looked at Hao Zhou at the same time, seeking his opinion.
Hao Zhou also didn't expect that all the doors of the hospital had been sealed shut, and his brows were tightly furrowed.
"I'll do it! Follow me."
Fang Heng saw that Hao Zhou was still hesitating, so he called out to the team and quickly walked to a window on the first floor that had been sealed shut with wooden planks.
He raised his shotgun and pulled the trigger.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
He used brute force to break in!
With three shots, the wooden planks and glass on the outer layer of the window were shattered, revealing an entrance.
God!
Tycoon!
An ordinary bullet from a shotgun would be sold for 100 survival points in the apocalypse merchant camp.
With these three shots, 300 survival points would be gone!
Everyone had a clearer evaluation of Fang Heng's so-called 'better equipment', and at the same time, they silently gave him a thumbs up in their hearts.
In the apocalypse, it was really lucky to meet a teammate like Fang Heng!

Fang Heng had already upgraded the apocalypse merchant to an extremely high level. Therefore, he had the highest discount. He only needed 31 survival points to buy a shotgun bullet.
"Quick!"
The crowd filed in climbed through the window and sneaked into the hospital.
As soon as they stepped into the hospital, Fang Heng immediately turned on his portable flashlight and quickly illuminated every corner of the room.
This was a normal examination room.
Kun Ba and Kun Ta quickly cleaned up the remaining zombies in the room, then opened the door and entered the corridor outside the examination room to clean up the zombies in the corridor.
Hao Zhou took out a wooden plank, re-sealed and reinforced the window entrance that was destroyed when the team had broken in.
After a moment, Kun Ba and Kun Ta cleaned up the corridor outside the room and returned.
"We have confirmed that it's safe."
Sister Li immediately deactivated the barrier.
She took out a can of Red Bull drink from her backpack to speed up the recovery of her mental strength and gulped it down.
"The consumption of mental strength is less than expected. It will take about one and a half hours to fully recover mental strength."
Hao Zhou nodded.
"Okay, everyone, let's take a rest first."
They successfully entered the Community Hospital. The first phase of the mission had been completed.
Overall, they managed to enter the hospital unscathed.
Hao Zhou locked the door of the examination room and raised his hand to light a bonfire.
Everyone sat around the bonfire and started eating to replenish the energy that was depleted earlier on.
Under such circumstances, Fang Heng still tried to be steady.
He didn't choose to show off his speciality which was barbecue.
After all, there was a chance that zombies could smell the scent and track them.
There was no need to invite trouble to himself.
He still had the half-pack of Oreo cookies left from before.
Along with chocolate milk.
Fang Heng ate while thinking about what to do next.
What the team needed to do next was to find the backup generator set on the first floor and blow it up.
Of course, he had more important things to do.
Fang Heng took another look at the mission description.
Mission name: Find the T-virus serum.
Mission description: Find the T-virus serum and hand it over to 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, or you can find the T-virus serum in other ways).
Hint: As time passes, the antivirus serum in Hope Town may be taken away or destroyed by the survivors in advance.
The T-virus serum was hidden on the third floor.
He had to go to the third floor to take a look first.
Considering that blowing up the generator set would cause noise and attract zombies, Hao Zhou would probably choose to blow up the generator set after Sister Li had fully recovered.
Therefore, he still had one and a half hours of free time.
While Fang Heng was thinking, he heard Hao Zhou clap his hands.
"The plan is like this. First, we find the location of the generator set, occupy the room where the generator set is located and ensure the safety of the generator room and the surrounding environment."
"In one and a half hours, we will set up the explosives and retreat quickly."
Hao Zhou gave a rough outline for the execution of the operation.
No one had any objections to it.
Only Fang Heng had another motive. He still wanted to go to the third floor to complete the mission.
"Don't you think this mission is a little strange?"
When they heard this, they all looked up at Fang Heng at the same time.
"Especially Old Black. He's also very strange."
As Fang Heng spoke, he stood up and walked to the entrance of the room. He tried to press the light switch in the room.
"The backup power supply here is also not effective. Why do we need to waste so much effort to blow up the generator set?"
Hao Zhou and the others fell silent for a moment.
They also had doubts about this mission.
But this was the mission provided by the employer.
They didn't ask the employer the reason for the mission. They only cared about what they could get after the mission is completed.
This was the professional ethics of a mercenary.
Hao Zhou pondered for a moment and said, "It's indeed a little strange, but it has nothing to do with us. We just need to complete the mission."
"You're right, but I have a bad feeling about it."
Fang Heng shrugged and said, "I'll go around again later to clear out some possible dangers. You guys follow the plan. I'll go back to the generator room to look for you all once I am done."
Hao Zhou frowned.
It was a big taboo to split up.
But on second thought, the risk that Fang Heng mentioned did exist.
He didn't trust this mission and vaguely felt that it was a little strange.
The most important thing was…
Fang Heng had shown his strength and proved himself during this mission.
He already had a say in the team.
Moreover, with Fang Heng's strength, even if he encountered mutated zombies, he could still protect himself.
"I don't support your actions, but if you insist, I won't stop you."
After thinking for a while, Hao Zhou agreed to Fang Heng's solo operation.
"Be careful. If you still don't come back in an hour and a half, we'll choose to minimise the risk and abandon you for the sake of the mission. We won't take the risk to look for you."
"Hahaha." Fang Heng laughed and patted Hao Zhou's shoulder. "Although it sounds cold, I understand. I'll rush back."
"Okay, be careful."
Hao Zhou nodded.
"Add me as a friend. If you encounter any problems, contact me through the emergency communication channel of the survival radio."
"Okay."
Fang Heng quickly added Hao Zhou as a friend and left the examination room.
The Community Hospital was very big.
Fang Heng pulled out his machete and carefully searched the stairway leading to the second floor.
He looked at the resurrection time of the zombie clones.
It was really unfortunate.
There was only one hour and 40 minutes left.
At that time, his zombie clones would automatically resurrect in the surroundings.
He couldn't stop it!
If everything went smoothly, he would be running away from Hope Town at that time.
"It would be great if the resurrection time of the zombie clones could be controlled."
Fang Heng muttered in a low voice, then suddenly stopped.
The danger perception skill was activated again. He sensed a slight danger coming from the corner.
It was a zombie!
"Chi!"
He raised his hand and slashed.
The zombie hiding in the corner had its neck cut off by Fang Heng.
Its head was cut off, and it flew up.
It landed on the ground with a thud.
Fang Heng walked around the corner and saw the stairway.
He went straight to the third floor.
He cleaned up all the zombies along the way. At the same time, he looked at the words on the door plate.
"Storage room."
"Lounge."
"Living room."
"Clothes room…"
"Dean's room."
Found it.
Fang Heng tried to push the door.
The door was locked.
"Click."
Fang Heng took out a shotgun, pulled the bolt and aimed at the door lock.
"Bang!"
A gunshot was heard, and a big hole was created in the door lock by the shotgun.
"Wu…"
Hearing the gunshot, the zombies in the dean's office immediately surrounded Fang Heng.
Fang Heng pushed the wooden door open with a loud bang and used his machete to slash the zombies.
"Chi! Chi!"
[Hint: Your attack has caused the 'dismemberment' effect.]

After killing the zombies with two slashes, Fang Heng walked into the room.
"Eh? What's that sound?"
Before he could explore the dean's office, Fang Heng suddenly heard something.
He turned around and took two steps back, looking at the end of the corridor.
There were three short shadows.
They were growling threateningly.
"F*ck, they are zombie dogs!"
Fang Heng said to himself, "This is troublesome."
Zombie dogs and spider zombies were both famous for their speed and were very difficult to deal with! The zombie dogs were even faster than the spider zombies!
"Roar!"
The three zombie dogs were attracted by Fang Heng's gunshots. They increased their speed and rushed toward Fang Heng.
"Bang!"
Fang Heng hurriedly hid in the dean's office and closed the door. Then, he moved a cabinet to block the wooden door.
They were coming.
"Dong! Dong Dong!"
Fang Heng heard the sound of the three zombie dogs hitting the door with their bodies.
The broken wooden door wouldn't be able to hold on for long.
Fang Heng sneered and extended the muzzle of the shotgun out of the hole made by the shotgun.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
After a few shots, there was no more movement outside.
[Hint: You have used a shotgun to kill a zombie dog*3. You have gained 15 survival points. Your gun mastery experience 21.]
"Troublesome zombie dogs."
After confirming that the zombie dogs had died via the game log, Fang Heng muttered and pushed the door open again.
Zombie dogs had the advantage of explosive speed and fast dodging. They were not high-level zombies and their HP was even lower than ordinary zombies.
Therefore, they would not drop the complete evolution crystals after they died.
Fang Heng ran out of the door again and killed the ordinary zombies that were attracted by the gunshots.
He turned back to the dean's office and began to search wantonly.
[Hint: You found a pack of cigarettes*2, premium coffee beans*10, a tattered shirt*1, the dean's magnetic card*1, milk*2, chocolate*3, first aid spray*1.]
After searching the room carefully, Fang Heng did not find any traces of the T-virus serum. Instead, he found some more useful survival materials.
For example, first aid spray, an item that could greatly restore health points, was extremely rare.
Cigarettes were also good items that could increase the favorability rating of NPCs in the game.
However, he could not find the T-virus serum.
Strange, where could it be hidden?
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and looked around the entire room again.
He had searched very carefully before.
Could it be…
A picture frame?
Fang Heng's gaze focused on a photo on the wall.
It was often played like this in movies.
He remembered that there were similar posts in the forum before. There were hidden safes in some rooms.
One of the hiding places was behind the picture frame.
Fang Heng walked to the picture frame where the dean's photo was hanging and moved the picture frame away.
Sure enough, a metal safe appeared behind the picture frame.
"This is bad, I don't know the password."
Fang Heng tried to hit the safe with the stone hammer.
"Dong!"
A muffled sound was heard.
[Hint: You have dealt damage to the metal safe 7.]
A long health bar appeared in Fang Heng's eyes.
The safe had a durability of 20,000. Even if he used the shotgun and the zombie clones to scrape the safe, it would take an entire day for him to break it open.
Only by finding the password could he quickly open the safe.
"Come to think again, normal players don't have shotguns and zombie clones like me. It's impossible to crack open the safe."
"The game doesn't set certain death quests. There should be a hint."
Fang Heng calmed down and thought about it. He looked for any books that might be in the room.
There weren't any.
Then he could only try his luck.
"12345."
Error!
"1024."
Error!
"Dark Knights."
Error!
"Verone (Dean's name)."
Error!
"T-virus."
Error!
Fang Heng scratched his head.
What could it be? Could it be that the hint wasn't here?
More than ten minutes had passed but Fang Heng still found nothing.
He calmed down, walked to the centre of the room and looked around again.
That's right!
Fang Heng thought of something.
A computer!
There was a desktop computer on the dean's office desk.
There might be relevant information about the password in it!
But without a power source, the computer could not be turned on at the moment.
Power source!?
Generator set!?
"God!"
It was connected!
Fang Heng narrowed his eyes and rubbed his chin, thinking.
It was very likely that this mission required him to turn on the generator before he could turn on the computer.
Then, he could use the computer to get the password to the safe!
Then, the next mission should be to find a way to repair the generator and make it generate electricity again!
As for why Old Black wanted to destroy the generator set…
Perhaps he did not want others to complete the Dark Knight's mission?
Fang Heng felt that he was most likely right.
He was about to return to the basement when he saw the game log light up.
[Hint: Your survival radio has received an emergency message.]
Huh?
Fang Heng stopped and turned on the survival radio to check.
Hao Zhou: Fang Heng, how are things over there? I've found the location of the generator set and also found something.
Hao Zhou also found the problem with the generator?
He immediately replied to Hao Zhou.
Fang Heng: "I'll be right back.".
He rushed back to the generator room on the first floor.
Hao Zhou and the others were studying something in front of the generator set.
"What did you find?"
"Fang Heng, you came back just in time. Come and have a look. We found that the generator set is running."
"Huh? What did you say?"
Fang Heng was stunned.
The generator unit was running?
He was just thinking about how to persuade Hao Zhou to try to turn on the generator set.
Now Hao Zhou told him that the generator set was running?
This was completely inconsistent with his previous guess!
Fang Heng was a little confused for a moment.
He tried to clear his mind and asked, "You mean the generator set is in good condition? It's still running? Then why isn't the building providing power?"
Kun Ta, who was studying the circuit at the back, poked his head out and explained to Fang Heng.
"I just studied the generator set and found that the generator set here doesn't provide power to the main building."
Fang Heng was stunned again and was even more surprised. He asked, "It's not the main building? Then where is it?"
"I'm not sure. The circuit operation seems to lead to the bottom."
"The bottom?" Hao Zhou also frowned. He picked up the map of the hospital that he had just found and looked at it carefully.
"There's only the morgue underground."
Morgue?
The members of the team all had strange expressions on their faces.
Why did a proper apocalypse survival game suddenly become a little scary?
Fang Heng was also puzzled.
What was the rationale behind the hospital's backup generator set made to ensure the power supply of the morgue in the first place?
To prevent zombies?
But could ensuring the power supply help to prevent zombies…
Fang Heng raised his head and asked, "Kun Ta, do you have a way to change the circuit, such as providing power from the generator set to the building?"
"Uh… I can try, but my skill level is too low. It will take at least three hours to do so."
Alright!
It seemed that the previous guess was probably wrong.
Fang Heng ruled out a wrong answer.

"Have you asked Old Black? What did he say?"
Sister Li shook her head.
"I asked him just now, but Old Black hasn't replied yet."
Kun Ba, who had been silent all this time, said, "Or maybe he doesn't want to reply."
Everyone fell silent again.
Hao Zhou clapped his hands to attract everyone's attention.
"Cheer up. Everyone might have some doubts about this mission. To be honest, I'm the same."
"But if we think about it carefully, it doesn't make any difference to us whether the generator is on or not."
"We are mercenaries, and our first goal is to complete the mission. In short, we will start preparing to retreat in 50 minutes."
No one raised any objections.
Hao Zhou's words were also correct.
After all, Old Black only said that they needed to blow up the generator. He did not say whether the generator was on or off.
Fang Heng felt that Old Black's mission was related to the T-virus serum mission that he had on hand.
It was necessary to go to the underground floor to take a look.
"There's still some time. I want to go down and take a look. Does anyone want to go with me?"
The team members looked at each other again.
No one responded.
Hao Zhou advised, "Fang Heng, there's no need for that. We just need to blow up the generator set to complete the mission. Don't create unnecessary complications."
"I'll go alone. I'll try my best to rush back in 50 minutes. It'll be the same as before. If I don't make it back, don't bother about me."
"Wait a minute. I'll go with you. It's safer with more people."
Kun Ba stood up.
"Thank you for saving my brother not long ago. We brothers don't like to owe others favours."
"Okay."
It was safer to have more people around.
Fang Heng agreed immediately and left the generator room with Kun Ba to the underground morgue.
"I also feel that this mission is strange."
On the pathway to the first underground floor, Kun Ba broke the silence and handed Fang Heng a piece of A4 paper.
"I found this when I was searching just now. It was pasted on the cabinet in the maintenance room."
Fang Heng took the note and read it.
[Job tips: All maintenance staff to take note. Given the recent repeated incidents, please ensure that the air-conditioning in the underground morgue is turned on 24 hours a day and set up a 24-hour rotation inspection team.]
[Remarks: The temperature in the morgue must be below 0 degrees Celsius, and the temperature in the freezer must be below -28 degrees Celsius.]
Fang Heng read the contents of the A4 paper and muttered softly.
"Just looking at the content, there doesn't seem to be a problem."
"Yeah." Kun Ba nodded as well. "There's only this note in the room and I don't know what 'repeated incidents' mean."
The entrance to the first underground floor was next to the pathway elevator.
Due to the loss of the power supply, the elevator had already lost its effectiveness.
The two of them took care of a few zombies blocking the way and entered the first underground floor.
On the left side of the first underground floor, there was a passage leading to the morgue.
On the right side, there was a direction leading to the underground parking lot.
The iron gate leading to the parking lot had fallen, completely blocking the way.
Fang Heng and Kun Ba exchanged looks and walked into the passage together.
The morgue was at the end of the passage.
The sign for the emergency passage above the door was still lit.
Sure enough, the backup generator provided power to the morgue.
"What is this?"
Walking to the door of the morgue, Fang Heng noticed that there was a note on the door of the morgue.
[Emergency notice: Due to frequent problems in the morgue, the use of the morgue has been temporarily suspended and it is under an emergency maintenance state.]
[During the maintenance period, the warehouse on the second floor of the hospital will be temporarily used as a backup facility. Under normal circumstances, the corpses will be sent directly to the funeral parlour.]
Fang Heng scratched his head.
Frequent problems in the morgue?
He felt that he had vaguely caught something, and for a moment, he did not quite understand.
Fang Heng turned his head to look at Kun Ba.
The latter had the same blank expression on his face.
Kun Ba suggested in a low voice, "Shall we go in and take a look first?"
"Yes."
Fang Heng approached the door and leaned over, trying to listen to the movements inside the morgue.
The inside of the morgue was abnormally quiet.
Fang Heng tried to push the door open again.
It could not be opened.
There was a card slot that could be inserted into the wall on the right side of the morgue.
Fang Heng thought of the magnetic card that he had just found in the dean's office.
[Item-Dean's magnetic card.]
Type: Miscellaneous.
Description: The magnetic card of the dean of Hope Town Community Hospital. On the front, there is the dean's photo. You can decompose it into waste plastic.
Fang Heng tried to insert the magnetic card into the card slot.
"Beep! Verification passed. Welcome, dean Verone."
"Click."
The door of the morgue automatically opened in front of Fang Heng.
A gust of cold air blew in from the morgue.
The temperature of the air conditioning in the morgue was very low, and the dim lights were still on.
Fang Heng stood at the door with a shotgun in one hand, trying to get a clear view of the situation inside the morgue.
The morgue was in a mess, with bloodstains all over the place.
At a glance, more than ten corpses were lying on the ground.
They were all dead?
Fang Heng lowered his head and looked at the two corpses near the door.
The parts above their necks were gone, and their necks were badly mutilated.
Were their heads shot because of the zombie transformation?
The way they handled it was quite professional.
Fang Heng pursed his lips. He and Kun Ba carefully walked into the room and searched carefully.
"Fang Heng, all the zombies here have no heads. It seems that they were cleaned up in advance."
Kun Ba also noticed the abnormality of the corpses. He squatted down to examine it carefully.
"Eh?"
"What's wrong?"
"It's very strange. The wound on the neck of the body is quite strange. It doesn't feel like it was cut off by someone, nor did it look like it was blown open by a gun."
A puzzled look appeared on Kun Ba's face. "It's more like it exploded from the inside out."
"What? You're saying that he blew himself up?"
Fang Heng frowned. Before he had time to search further, his heart suddenly jumped.
He felt an extremely dangerous feeling and quickly turned his head. His gaze focused on an iron door on the side of the morgue.
The danger perception skill had been activated!
Fang Heng immediately raised his shotgun and aimed at the small door, staring at it.
"What's behind the door?"
Even when he encountered mutated zombies, Fang Heng had never felt such a strong sense of danger.
Kun Ba noticed that Fang Heng's expression had become extremely serious, so he immediately stood up and stood beside Fang Heng, putting on a battle stance.
He asked in a low voice, "What's wrong, Fang Heng?"
"It's a skill of mine. I feel that there's something strange behind that door."
Fang Heng replied in a low voice.
"Pa…"
There was an extremely weak sound.
The lights above the two of them were instantly extinguished.
The entire morgue instantly became extremely dark.
A power failure!?
Fang Heng was shocked. He quickly took two steps back and took out a flashlight to light up the area in front of him.
Kun Ba also took out a flashlight to illuminate the surroundings..

There was nothing unusual in the morgue.
Then why did the power suddenly go out?
Was it because of his sudden intrusion?
Fang Heng turned on the survival radio to contact Hao Zhou.
Fang Heng: "I suddenly lost power here. What's the situation over there?"
Hao Zhou: "Everything is normal. Kun Ta learned electronic equipment manufacturing skills. He just tried to remove some useful props from the generator set. After he removed them, the generator set stopped working."
"It was a false alarm. The power was cut off on their side."
Fang Heng heaved a sigh of relief and gestured at the iron door with his chin.
"I'll go and see what's inside that door. You'll support me from behind."
"Okay."
Kun Ba nodded to show that he understood.
Fang Heng walked in front and carefully walked to the iron door.
"Who cares what's inside? When the time comes, I'll directly blast it out with a shotgun!" Fang Heng thought.
Due to the power failure, the original electronic lock on the iron door had lost its effect.
Fang Heng twisted the door handle and the door was easily pushed open.
So cold!
A gust of cold air hit Fang Heng and he couldn't help but shiver.
The temperature of the air conditioner here was so low?
Fang Heng felt as if he had entered into cold storage.
The room was pitch black and Fang Heng shone his flashlight into the room.
The light that illuminated from the flashlight was blocked by the green plants in front of him, which made it impossible for Fang Heng to see the entire room.
Fang Heng could feel that the room was very large, and at first glance, it looked like a large laboratory.
But what was going on with these green plants?
Their growth was too good. The lush leaves almost blocked the path ahead.
"Fang Heng, these plants aren't right. Be careful."
Kun Ba stood guard at the door. He used a flashlight to light up the room.
"Okay."
Fang Heng nodded and walked two steps into the room.
He also sensed it.
He sensed danger from these plants.
Fang Heng didn't dare to get too close. He stopped more than ten meters away from the plants and started searching on the experiment table.
There was a notebook on the experiment table.
[Experiment team's notebook — team leader: Xue Zhibin.]
Found it!
Fang Heng immediately picked up the notebook and began to read it.
[12.12]
The impact of the government's intervention was greater than expected.
On the surface, the company was heavily fined, and all research projects on the T-virus were completely stalled.
The government seized and emptied all relevant research data.
But in fact, they had no real data at all.
We had collected a lot of raw data from the biochemical crisis virus outbreak in City S three years ago.
Our research on the T-virus was much deeper than they had imagined.
The supervisor told me clearly that the experiment would continue.
[2.10]
I was assigned by the company to lead the team to Hope Town Community Hospital to continue the research on the new mutation virus.
The dean of the Community Hospital was one of our sponsors, he had been secretly supporting our research.
As early as three years ago when the virus project began, Hope Town Community Hospital had been set up as one of the company's secret research points.
The dean would do his best to support our team accordingly.
[2.30]
1
The laboratory environment was a little worse than I expected.
We had to buy a lot of equipment, and some special equipment had to be customized from the company and shipped over.
The hospital morgue was very good, and there was an endless supply of corpses for us to do physical research.
The dean would help us get rid of all the trouble, and we just needed to focus on the research.
We appreciate the dean's support of our company.
[3.13]
1. Using the T-virus to infect normal plants, resulting in mutated life forms. In our research, we found that the T-virus and the corpse vine had the best combination. We named the infected plant corpse vine.
2. Corpse vines were different from ordinary plants. They had strong vitality and showed extremely strong offensive ability.
3. Corpse vines could not move. It seemed to have some basic hypersensitivity. The vines could shrink a distance in a very short time.
[3.17]
1. It was impossible to determine whether the corpse vines can think, feel pain and remember.
2. The research on the corpse vines was temporarily interrupted. The company ordered us to enter the next phase immediately.
3. In the next step, we would try to combine the corpse vine with the corpse, it was said that there was such a phenomenon in the biochemical crisis that broke out in City S three years ago.
[3.29]
1. The experiment had a breakthrough and the replication was successful. We obtained a life form from the abnormal combination of a mutated plant body and the corpse. (The specific operation would be recorded in the experiment notebook).
2. After the corpse was resurrected, it formed a life form that was similar to a zombie. This kind of mutation was different from the intense mutation of animals. It was very difficult to control and their ability to move was extremely slow.
3. A new life form that was half human and half plant? Or did the plant use the corpse as a carrier?
[4.5]
1. It was parasitism. We discovered that the corpse vine had completely invaded the brain of the corpse, and within seven days, it had completely 'digested' the host's head. After that, the corpse vine 'occupied the magpie's nest', and controlled the corpse to move.
(The process was very bloody. The head of the corpse would explode on its own, and a plant-like tentacle would grow out of the neck.).
2. We needed more samples for testing.
3. To be able to focus on the experiment, the dean agreed to temporarily close the morgue.
[4.30]
1. We temporarily called the zombies that were infected by the corpse vine, the corpse vine parasites.
2. The corpse vines were sensitive to temperature and light. They did not like being exposed to strong sunlight. However, after observing for a long time, we concluded that even after being exposed to sunlight for a long time, the corpse vines were only dehydrated.
3. When the temperature was below 15 degrees Celsius, the activity of the vine zombies was greatly reduced.
4. When the temperature was below 5 degrees Celsius, the corpse vines would enter a dormant state.
There were still a few more pages at the back of the log, and it was not completely over yet.
But when he read until this point, Fang Heng suddenly felt a chill on his back.
He immediately understood.
Oh no!
It's the temperature!
Everything was related to the temperature!
The drop in temperature could cause the corpse vine parasite to enter a dormant state temporarily!
No wonder the temperature in the morgue was so low!
No wonder the hospital's backup generator set guaranteed the power in the basement first!
Fang Heng immediately thought of the corpses lying on the ground in the morgue with their heads blown off.
They were not dead.
They were just corpse vine parasites that had fallen into hibernation!
Now that they had lost the backup power supply, the air-conditioning in the morgue was no longer working…
In that case, the corpses hidden in the morgue would come back to life!
It was dangerous!
"Quick! Let's leave this place first!"
Fang Heng shouted and put away the notebook. Then, he turned around and left the room with Kun Ba.
As soon as the two of them returned to the morgue, two zombies slowly got up from the ground and blocked the entrance of the morgue.
The temperature at the entrance was the highest! They were the first to exit hibernation!
The zombies stuck out a strange, wriggling vine from their broken necks.
They intertwined with each other to form a twisted mass.

"Sizzle sizzle…"
The headless corpses on the ground began to emit a faint sound.
Fang Heng could see tiny vines gradually extending out from the wound on the neck of the corpses.
Not only that, the faint sound even came from the rows of refrigerators on the left and right sides!
Kun Ba's scalp went numb.
It was the first time he saw such a terrifying scene. He immediately shone his flashlight on the refrigerators on both sides.
He was horrified to discover that tiny long strips of objects had been drilled through the gaps of several morgue cabinets.
What the hell was that thing?
A vine?!
"Fang Heng…"
Kun Ba's breathing became heavy.
"This is troublesome. It's a vine zombie."
The scene in front of him overlapped with a special type of zombie that Fang Heng had encountered in his body's memories.
This was an extremely rare type of zombie.
It belonged to the category of a Tier 2 mutated zombie.
It was called a vine zombie by the players.
In the memories of this body, the vine zombies moved relatively slowly, but their HP was quite high. They would also use the vines to assist in their attacks.
Once the players got close, the vine zombies would extend their branches from their bodies at an extremely fast speed and entangle the players tightly!
A nightmare of close combat.
The safest way was to rely on long-range methods to kill them!
"Quick! Follow me!"
Fang Heng pulled the bolt of his gun and quickly stepped forward.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Two shots.
The two vine zombies blocking the door were each blasted a big hole in their bodies, and their bodies were sent flying backward.
They weren't dead.
Tiny vine tentacles immediately extended out from the hole to seal the wound.
They slowly got up from the ground again.
"Quick!"
Before all the vine zombies in the morgue woke up, the two of them quickly ran out of the morgue.
Fang Heng closed the door of the morgue tightly.
However, the power source was no longer working, so the door couldn't be locked.
Whatever, as long as possible.
Fang Heng took out a few wooden frames from his backpack to block the door of the room.
The two of them immediately returned to the generator room.
…
In the room, Hao Zhou and the others gathered around to study the materials removed from the generator set.
In the zombie apocalypse game, the generator set was of high value, and players could not make it.
In the early stages, because the players' levels weren't high enough, Kun Ta could only remove some useful materials from the generator set, and the quality of the materials would be reduced.
Seeing Fang Heng and Kun Ba running back in a hurry, everyone immediately stood up and were on alert.
"What's wrong?"
"Quick! Find a way to restore the power in the basement!"
Kun Ta was stunned. He subconsciously replied, "No, I can't do that. My electronic equipment manufacturing level is very low. If I want to restore it, I need to be at least level 10 or above."
Kun Ba's heart sank when he heard that.
Hao Zhou asked, "Why the rush? What happened?"
"There are zombies in the basement!"
While saying that, Kun Ba turned his eyes to Fang Heng.
He had only seen the weird zombies that had revived in the basement, and then he was dragged by Fang Heng to escape.
To be honest, he didn't really know what had happened in the basement.
"The dean of this hospital is doing research on the T-virus in the morgue. It's a kind of zombie by the name of corpse vine parasite."
"This kind of zombie is sensitive to temperature. It will enter a state of hibernation in a low temperature environment. Under normal circumstances, researchers will lock a large number of zombies with the corpse vine parasite in the freezer of the underground morgue to hibernate."
"After the zombie apocalypse, the backup generator set has always maintained the freezing temperature of the basement, and these zombies have also been in a state of hibernation."
"After the generator set lost its function, the temperature rose and the corpse vine parasite, which was initially in a dormant state, began to wake up."
Fang Heng briefly told them what he knew.
Hearing that, everyone immediately became nervous.
Very few people had heard the name of the corpse vine parasite.
"What about the strength of the mutated zombie?"
Fang Heng said in a deep voice, "The corpse vine parasite is known as the 'vine zombie' among the players. Its strength is equivalent to a Tier 2 mutated zombie. It has an extremely strong killing ability at close range. If you encounter it, be careful not to get close to it!"
Everyone's expression changed again.
The higher the level of the mutated zombie, the stronger it was!
The spider zombie was probably the representative species of the strongest batch of Tier 1 mutated zombies.
The corpse vine parasite was more difficult to deal with than the spider zombie!
"Oh no, how could it be the vine zombie…"
Hao Zhou had also heard his comrades mention the vine zombie.
His expression was unusually grave.
"After the power went out, the electronic door of the morgue also failed. These corpse vine parasites will recover soon. They could find us at any time."
Hao Zhou looked at Sister Li and asked, "Sister Li, how are you recovering?"
"I haven't fully recovered yet. If I forcefully use the skill now, I can only maintain the barrier for six minutes at most."
Six minutes was too short!
When they broke into the town, they first lured away most of the zombies, so they could save a lot of time.
However, if they escaped, time would be even tighter.
That was because the sound of the explosion would attract the zombies, and the danger level would be doubled.
There was no time for that in just six minutes.
"We still have time. Maybe the corpse vine parasites will stay in the first underground floor."
Hao Zhou quickly made a decision after thinking for a short while.
"The corpse vine parasites are slow. Even if they catch up with us, we can just give up the mission and leave."
"Without the explosion to attract the nearby zombies, the pressure we'll face when we escape will be much less."
Hearing that, the team thought for a while and nodded in agreement.
Although the mission reward was good, it had to be on the premise of saving their lives.
Everyone only had three chances to die and be reborn. No one was willing to waste one.
After a simple discussion, everyone began to prepare for the next battle.
Fang Heng continued to open the experiment notebook that he had just obtained from the research room.
[5.2]
1. The parasitic efficiency of the corpse vine parasite was much faster than we had imagined. In order to increase the efficiency, we created a large number of corpse vine parasites. Hiding them in the freezer is a good choice.
2. The experiment had not been carried out yet, but the company wanted us to immediately prepare for the next step of the experiment, trying to integrate with living humans.
3. Well, I needed some healthy living humans for the experiment, the dean will help us think of a way.
[5.10]
1. Out of the 27 living humans, only one experiment was successful, his name was Alex. After being infected by the parasite, Alex showed great instability. He was violent and bloodthirsty. He would attack all kinds of creatures.
2. We wanted to find more living humans to experiment on. However, this town was really not big. The accidental disappearances in the town these few days had attracted a small amount of attention.. It was necessary to stop for a while.

Chapter 57: Optional Side Missions
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
[5.12]
1. The corpse vine had destroyed a large number of cells in the body, and the mutated T-virus was also rapidly repairing the cells. The combination between the vine and a living body was better than expected.
2. The corpse vine was improving Alex's human body structure. He became abnormally strong, and a layer of corpse vine armour began to grow on his skin.
[5.17.
1. Alex was more resistant to low temperatures, but he would also enter a dormant state when the temperature was below-17 degrees Celsius.
2. As Alex showed extremely high destructiveness and instability, we temporarily put him into a dormant state to ensure safety.
[5.20]
1. The corpse vine parasites were not sensitive to fire, but they were unusually vulnerable to fire damage.
2. It was strange to find that the T-virus serum had an extremely strong lethality against the plant parasites. It could directly kill the parasitic plant zombies, but the rest of the body remained in a 'survival' state.
[5.21]
1. If you met with danger, you could activate the emergency refrigeration device, press the red button and quickly reduce the temperature of the morgue environment, in addition, you could also try to kill them by spraying the diluted solution of the T-virus serum with a water pipe.
2. We would request more serum from our superiors for research.
Note: There is still the remaining T-virus serum in the safe of the dean's office. Password: ALEX.
[5.26]
1. The superior department was very interested in Alex and wanted to transfer him to the headquarters for observation.
2. To complete the transfer work, we have prepared a special freezer, put Alex in the freezer temporarily to wait for the transfer (even after the power failure, the freezer could still guarantee at least 30 hours of freezing time).
3. Next, we would try to study how to further strengthen the corpse vine parasite.
Note: Received the news, the superiors would help us find some living bodies from prison and send them over to help us with human living experiments.
The log stopped at this point.
Fang Heng's eyelids twitched and he was overjoyed.
Found it!
Sure enough, his premonition was right. The T-virus serum mission had something to do with the morgue.
The password to the safe was hidden in the notebook!
Next, as long as he found the T-virus serum, the mission would be completed.
F*ck the corpse vine parasite!
"What does it have to do with me!"
Fang Heng was about to run to the dean's office on the third floor to look for the serum when a row of game notifications quickly flashed across his retina.
[Hint: You have read the experiment team's notebook.]
[Hint: You have accepted the mission-find the T-virus serum.]
[Hint: Your mission objective has changed.]
What was the situation?
Fang Heng was puzzled and immediately opened the game log to check.
Mission name: Find the T-virus serum.
Difficulty: SSS.
Basic mission requirement: Find the T-virus serum.
Optional mission 1: You have found the description of the corpse vine in the course of the mission. The Dark Knights have been looking for the origin of the apocalypse crisis. You can try to collect the corpse vine sample and give it to Vettel.
(If you complete this optional mission, your basic mission reward will be increased by 1.5 times).
Optional mission 2: If you find a description of the corpse vine parasite during the task, you can try to find a sample of the corpse vine parasite and give it to Vettel.
(If you complete this optional mission, your basic mission reward will be increased by 2 times).
Optional mission 3: If you find a description of Alex during the mission, find Alex's body (or sample) and bring it back to Vettel.
(If you complete this optional mission, your basic mission reward will be increased by 4 times).
Note 1: Optional missions can be completed at the same time, the reward can be multiplied.
Note 2: If the completion of the mission is more than 100% , you can receive additional rewards in proportion.
This is tempting!
Fang Heng gritted his teeth.
He originally wanted to get the T-virus serum and leave!
The basic difficulty of the mission to find the T-virus serum was the highest level of the game, SSS-level!
The reward was needless to say!
Now, with the addition of the side missions, if he could complete them, the reward provided by the missions would be raised to a terrifying level!
Fang Heng really wanted the reward but he had to be alive to receive it!
Not to mention the terrifying Tier 2 mutant zombie-corpse vine parasite.
There was even Alex who had fused with the vine…
Fang Heng did not doubt that this so-called Alex was already at Tier 3 or even Tier 4 level.
However…
The reward was too tempting! After completing all the side missions, he would receive the original reward of 1.5*2*4, which was 12 times the reward!
"F*ck!"
Fang Heng cursed in his heart.
In any case, he had to think of a way to get the T-virus serum first!
Fang Heng did not delay any longer. He immediately raised his head and said, "Sorry, I found something. I'm going out for a while. I'll be back soon."
Without waiting for Hao Zhou and the others to stop him, Fang Heng quickly left the room.
Taking advantage of the fact that the corpse vine parasites on the first floor had not caught up, Fang Heng carried the machete all the way back to the laboratory on the third floor. He removed the picture frame on the wall and quickly entered the password.
"ALEX!"
"Pa!"
The safe popped open from the inside.
There were two potions lying quietly inside.
[Hint: You have obtained item-T-virus serum*2.]
[Hint: Your mission-finding T-virus serum basic completion rate: 200%.]
Eh? There was another one.
If he double-handed the T-virus serum and completed all the optional side missions, his final reward would be a terrifying 24 times!
Risk it all!
Such an opportunity only came once every 10,000 years, there was no reason to retreat!
The risk was there but the reward for the mission was undoubtedly greater!
It was totally worth taking some risks for it!
If he gave up on this mission, how could he sleep at night!
Fang Heng conveniently kept the two serums into his backpack and returned the way he came. At the same time, he began to think about his next move!
Now, he should think about how to get the three items for the side missions.
According to the information he got from the experiment notes, the three items for the side mission should be in the research room behind the underground morgue.
The safest way should be to find a way to restore the power supply and put the zombies in the morgue into hibernation again.
However, it was impossible to do that in a short period of time!
So, they had to do it the hard way.
The corpse vine parasites had very low resistance to fire. In other words, the focused flamethrower could be very effective against them.
However, they had to be extra careful when using the focused flamethrower in this environment.
This place was not like the underground passage of the prison. A moment of carelessness could very well lead to a fire.
At that time, even the mission items would be burned to the ground. He might even be trapped in the fire and die.
So…
The safest way was to lure them away from the basement, then capture them all in one fell swoop and get rid of them completely.
"If I use the explosion…"
Fang Heng muttered to himself and began to try to construct a preliminary plan in his mind.
As for Alex, according to the notes of the experiment, the special freezer could keep the temperature under control for 30 hours.
This meant that he needed to solve the problem quickly within 30 hours, otherwise….

Chapter 58: Parking Lot

While thinking, Fang Heng rushed back to the generator room on the first floor.
Just as he turned the corner of the corridor, the scene in front of him shocked him.
A large number of zombies appeared in the corridor.
Hao Zhou and the others retreated while using their bows and arrows to fight back.
Where did so many zombies come from?
On a closer look, there were even two corpse vine parasites (vine zombies) mixed in the zombie crowd!
Hao Zhou knew how powerful the vine zombies were.
He led his teammates along the passage as they retreated, using long-range bows and arrows to shoot.
In addition to the close-range vine attack position, the vine zombies are also extremely powerful in defense.
Bows and arrows dealt very limited damage to them, but they could still put them into a stiff state, slowing them down.
From time to time, the two brothers, Kun Ba and Kun Ta would take the risk to dash forward, blow the heads of ordinary zombies with one punch, and then quickly retreat.
The team was in a huge crisis.
The vine zombies were coming up from the basement so quickly?
Fang Heng cursed in his heart.
He quickly took out the focused flamethrower and the fuel bottle in his backpack and quickly connected them.
Under normal circumstances, the focused flamethrower was heavy and required two people to use it at the same time.
Fang Heng's strength and physique were about twice that of an ordinary person, so he could barely use them by himself.
Fang Heng adjusted the focused flamethrower's fire valve to the maximum, held the nozzle and shouted.
"Get out of the way!"
Kun Ta and the others were focused on dealing with the zombies in front. Hearing Fang Heng's shout from behind, they all made way for him.
A figure quickly walked past them and rushed toward the zombies in the passage.
At that moment, they finally noticed Fang Heng, who was striding forward with a focused flamethrower in his hand.
Focus… Focused flamethrower!
This…
Kun Ba immediately recognized the deadly weapon in Fang Heng's hand.
"He has such a top-tier weapon?"
Kun Ba knew off his mind that fire damage was most effective against these flammable vine zombies!
Fang Heng walked to the front of the team, aimed at the zombies and pulled the trigger.
The flamethrower let out a roar.
Long strips of pale blue high-temperature flames were shot out from the mouth of the flamethrower.
The passage in front of them was instantly covered in flames!
The vine zombies were instantly ignited by the high-temperature flames and burned fiercely.
The group stood behind Fang Heng and watched as the zombies that were burned by the fire slowly fell to the ground.
The vine zombies continued to burn until they were reduced to ashes.
Kun Ta came back to his senses and looked at Fang Heng.
The others did the same.
Now, they finally understood what Fang Heng meant by "good equipment".
It turned out that the machete and shotgun were just appetizers. The focused flamethrower was the main course!
"Good guy!"
"This guy is showing off his wealth!"
[Hint: You have used the focused flamethrower to kill the corpse vine parasite*2. You have obtained 76 survival points. You have obtained weapon mastery 61.]
[Hint: Your weapon mastery skill level has been upgraded to Level 2.]
[Hint: You have collected a sample of the corpse vine parasite*2. Your side mission 2 (looking for a sample of the corpse vine parasite) completion rate: 4%.]
[Hint: You have obtained a complete evolution crystal *2.]
He was too hasty.
It turned out that the sample collection described in the side mission was actually through killing.
Fang Heng's heart skipped a beat.
He raised his head and saw the complicated gazes from Hao Zhou and company.
They were relieved, somewhat envious and somewhat speechless.
The crisis was not over yet.
There was still an endless stream of ordinary zombies coming out of the passage.
Fang Heng put away the flamethrower and took out his machete.
"Go!"
Hearing that, the two brothers, Kun Ba and Kun Ta, followed Fang Heng and fought their way through the passage.
After a long time, Fang Heng and the others worked together to clean up the wave of zombies in the passage and arrived at the entrance of the stairs on the first floor.
There was also an endless stream of zombies pouring out of the entrance of the stairs downstairs.
The group blocked the entrance of the passage and cleared out wave after wave of zombies.
From time to time, the zombie crowd was mixed with vine zombies.
At this time, Fang Heng would use his focused flamethrower to burn these zombies.
After three or four waves, the number of zombies coming out from the entrance of the passage didn't decrease but increased instead.
The group's vitality status dropped rapidly, and Kun Ba couldn't help but shout.
"Why is there no end to this group of zombies?!"
"The power failure caused the electronic lock at the entrance of the underground parking lot to fail. The zombies probably entered the Community Hospital through the parking lot."
Hao Zhou held the map of the Community Hospital in his hand and checked the layout, trying to find a solution.
"We can use manual mode to force the entrance of the parking lot to close again."
Kun Ta punched a zombie's head.
"Then what are we waiting for?"
"To manually adjust the position of the valve at the entrance of the underground parking lot, we need to go to the basement level one. Under the current situation, the basement level one will be full of zombies!"
The members of the team fell silent at the same time.
Kun Ba looked at his vitality status that was gradually decreasing, gritted his teeth and said, "Let's go! We won't be able to hold on at this rate!"
As he said that, he poured a mouthful of honey into his mouth to speed up the recovery of his vitality.
"Alright! It's decided then. Sister Li is going to activate her perception barrier. In any case, think of a way to close the entrance first and then think of a way later."
"Wait a minute!"
Everyone was about to move when Fang Heng suddenly spoke up to stop them.
He looked at Hao Zhou and said in a deep voice, "Hao Zhou, you guys leave first. I'll stay behind to blow up the generator set."
"What? Fang Heng, are you crazy?"
Kun Ta looked at Fang Heng in surprise.
"I don't agree!"
Hao Zhou frowned.
His answer was also very firm.
"We just need to close the entrance of the underground parking lot. At most, we'll wait for a while more and wait for Sister Li's talent skill to finish cooling down before we blow up the generator set and leave this place."
"Yeah, there's no need for you to take such a big risk and stay here alone. It's too dangerous!"
"No, we don't have enough time."
Fang Heng shook his head. He had made this decision after careful consideration.
"Our biggest threat comes from the vine zombies in the morgue. My focused flamethrower doesn't have enough spare fuel. Even without the harassment of the ordinary zombies, we won't be able to last for more than 30 minutes."
"Secondly, if we use the flamethrower for a long time, it will cause the building to catch fire. At that time, it will be even harder for us to escape."
Everyone fell silent again. The current situation was even worse than they had imagined.
"Let's not delay any longer. I have an idea. I need you to escape through the entrance of the underground garage. After you leave, I will immediately activate the explosives and blow up the generator set."
"The explosion will attract the zombies and reduce the pressure on you guys."
Hao Zhou frowned and quickly thought about Fang Heng's plan.
It sounded like there was no problem with the plan. Even if Fang Heng failed and didn't blow up the generator set, they had a high chance of escaping.
Except for one thing, Fang Heng's safety.
"What about you? What are you going to do after you blow up the generator set? How are you going to escape by yourself?"
"I have my ways to survive."
Fang Heng shrugged and added, "My equipment is not bad."
"Uh…"
This familiar excuse made Hao Zhou's expression freeze.
Was this considered 'not bad'?!
If it was in the latter stages of the game, it would indeed be considered 'not bad', but now it was in the early stages of the game. How many days had it been since the game started?
But even so, could he survive such a dangerous situation?

"Alright, if you're confident, I agree to this plan."
After some consideration, Hao Zhou decided to go with Fang Heng's plan.
"Very well, but before that, I need you to do a few things for me, very quickly."
Fang Heng pulled Hao Zhou aside and whispered a few words into his ear. Then, he took out a few small explosives from his backpack.
Hao Zhou listened to Fang Heng and looked at him in surprise.
He felt that he couldn't understand the young man in front of him anymore.
What was he going to do?
The more powerful the explosion, the better?
But, he should try his best not to hurt the structure of the hospital?
It didn't matter if the explosion was big or not?
Could it be…
That he wanted to use the explosion to destroy the zombies?
Under ideal conditions, he could do that.
But, how could Fang Heng deal with the zombies that were attracted by the explosion?
They were dealing with up to a hundred to two hundred zombies!
By then, most of the zombies in the town would be attracted.
Tens of thousands of zombies!
Also, ordinary zombies would be killed in the explosion, but the vine zombies were different.
Their defense was extremely strong.
Unless they were very close to the point of explosion, it would be difficult to kill them directly by relying on the shockwave created by the explosion.
Hao Zhou didn't know what Fang Heng was doing. He didn't have time to think too much, so he could only reiterate the risk one last time.
"Fang Heng, your request is technically correct. I can control the location of the explosion and keep the entire hospital intact."
"When the time comes, you can hide in the room on the right at the end of the corridor to avoid the impact of the explosion to the greatest extent."
"But the explosion will cause a huge commotion. At that time, the zombies outside will surround the entire hospital."
"I understand. Believe me, I have a plan."
Seeing Fang Heng's determination, Hao Zhou nodded.
"Okay."
After nearly ten minutes, Fang Heng and Hao Zhou finished setting up the small explosives and returned to the entrance of the stairs on the first floor.
"Let's go!"
Fang Heng raised the focus flamethrower and led the way.
The team rushed to the first floor again.
However, as soon as they reached the stairs on the first floor, they saw a dense mass of zombies gathered at the entrance.
Fang Heng's expression slightly changed.
"Why are there so many zombies?"
The number of zombies gathered on the first floor had completely exceeded his expectations!
The iron railings that were blocking the entrance of the passage had been destroyed by the zombies, and the parking lot was also packed with zombies.
In addition, there were also a large number of vine zombies gathered at the left side of the passage.
The only good news was that the vine zombies were blocked by ordinary zombies, so they couldn't get through for the time being.
Such a scene made Hao Zhou and the others' scalps go numb.
The zombies became even more agitated when they smelled the scent of living people and crazily rushed toward Fang Heng and the others.
Hao Zhou broke out in cold sweat and hurriedly shouted.
"Quick! Activate the barrier!"
Sister Li had released the perception barrier in advance.
A barrier that couldn't be detected by the naked eye enveloped Fang Heng and the others.
The zombies on the ground floor instantly lost their perception of living things and became quiet again.
"The manual control device is over there!"
Hao Zhou pointed at the entrance of the underground parking lot and shouted.
The situation was critical, so they could only activate the perception barrier ahead of time.
Fang Heng pulled out his machete.
After the perception barrier was activated, they still needed to deal with the zombies inside the perception barrier!
The entire lower level was blocked by a dense crowd of zombies, so they couldn't move fast.
"Bang!"
They came to the entrance of the underground garage with great difficulty. Fang Heng smashed the glass cover with one punch and turned the emergency closing device inside the glass cover.
The iron shutter door slowly descended.
Hao Zhou and the others quickly moved to the other side of the shutter door.
"Fang Heng, come out alive."
"Don't worry. Leave it to me."
Fang Heng gave Hao Zhou a thumbs up.
"Crack!"
The door of the garage was completely closed.
Hao Zhou saw that Fang Heng had completely disappeared from his sight. He then closed the outer iron gate and waved his hand, "Let's go! Let's go!"
On the other side of the iron gate, Fang Heng switched to the focus flamethrower again.
He turned around and looked at the vast zombie crowd.
After leaving the range of Sister Li's perception barrier, the zombie crowd immediately sensed Fang Heng and rushed toward him crazily.
The parking lot was relatively empty and the zombies crowded together, which was perfect for the use of the focus flamethrower.
"This thing is good, but it costs money!"
Fang Heng murmured and activated the focus flamethrower again.
"Boom!!"
The focus flamethrower shot out blue high-temperature flames.
The flames instantly engulfed the zombie crowd.
The zombies were on fire one after another as they fell in front of Fang Heng.
Fang Heng walked toward the passage while controlling the flamethrower to kill the zombies.
When the temperature of the focus flamethrower reached 100%, 70% to 80% of the zombies had already fallen.
[Hint: You have killed an ordinary zombie*1225, obtained 2,230 survival points, obtained evolution crystal fragment*214, obtained skill-weapon mastery experience points 810.]
Fang Heng killed his way to the stairs on the first floor. Then, he took out a Molotov cocktail from his backpack and threw it at the vine zombies on the left side of the passage.
"Bang! Bang!"
The Molotov cocktail broke into pieces.
A small flame burned on the ground.
The damage from the Molotov cocktail was continuous but the instantaneous damage was far less than that of the focused flamethrower.
Although the vine zombies were injured by the Molotov cocktail and their bodies were burning, they still staggered out of the burning area and walked toward Fang Heng.
The fire raised the temperature of the environment again.
More vine zombies were attracted by the noise outside and they staggered out of the morgue.
Fang Heng threw two more Molotov cocktails into the corridor, further reducing the HP of the vine zombies that left the morgue.
"Almost done. If that's the case, all of them would be blown up later."
Fang Heng muttered to himself.
"At most, I'll kill them all later."
Estimating that the time was almost up, Fang Heng turned around and rushed to the stairs behind him, heading straight for the first floor.
Fang Heng continuously pressed the small explosive pack switch that he had long installed.
Then, he quickly dashed into the room at the bottom of the first floor that he had prepared beforehand.
According to what he and Hao Zhou had discussed previously, once the explosives exploded, other than the generator room, the impact of the damage on the inner side of the entire passage would be the strongest.
Fang Heng followed Hao Zhou's instructions and hid in a corner. He put on his helmet and counted in his heart.
…
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
After the five-minute countdown, Hao Zhou and the others who were trying their best to create an escape route in the zombie crowd exploded behind them.
The zombies who were originally occupying the small town were affected by the loud explosion. They turned around and gathered in the direction of the sound.
The number of zombies around Hao Zhou began to decrease rapidly.
Sister Li said in a deep voice, "The perception barrier can last for one minute."
Hearing that, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
Based on the current situation, one minute was enough for them to leave the dense zombie crowd.
By that time, they could leave the small town safely even without the perception barrier.

Chapter 60: Catch Them All
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Fang Heng squatted in a corner of the room at the end of the first floor.
To ensure his safety, he even put on a motorcycle helmet.
The building shook violently and small stone chips kept falling from the ceiling.
The loud explosion even made Fang Heng's ears ring for a short while.
"Hao Zhou said that this room was the safest place to hide in, but he still created such a big commotion outside…"
After the building shook for a while, Fang Heng supported himself against the wall and stood up.
He opened the door to the room.
The outside passage was in a mess.
[Hint: You have killed the corpse vine parasite*62. You have obtained 151 samples of the corpse vine parasite. You have obtained 3,720 survival points.]
[Hint: You have accumulated 153 samples of the corpse vine parasite. Of course, the mission completion rate is 306%.]
Hahahaha!
It was a huge profit!
The plan went extremely smoothly.
The pre-set explosion had wiped out all the corpse vine parasites in the passage!
Looking at the game log data, Fang Heng was in a great mood.
Including the two sets of T-virus serum, he had completed 200% of the basic experience points and 306% of the side mission completion rate.
With simple calculations, even if he left now, he would receive 1*2*200%* 300%, which was 12 times the mission reward!
However, Fang Heng was not prepared to leave so easily.
Where was he now?
Inside the passage, a large number of corpse vine parasites had fallen.
There were many shiny evolution crystals on the ground.
Tier 1 crystal!
Fang Heng saw the purple Tier 1 crystal at a glance and waved his hand forward.
The crystal on the ground instantly flew into Fang Heng's palm.
[Hint: You have obtained a complete evolution crystal*52, you have obtained a Tier 1 evolution crystal*4.]
It was out!
A Tier 1 evolution crystal!
It could only be dropped when killing Tier 2 and above mutated zombies!
Fang Heng held a thumb-sized purple crystal in his hand and observed it.
Item: Tier 1 evolution crystal.
Description: A powerful crystal that can provide players with level 10-20 experience points.
"I haven't reached level 10 yet, so I don't need it for now."
Fang Heng put the Tier 1 crystal into his bag and crushed the complete evolution crystal he had just collected.
A ball of red mist entered his palm and his character's experience bar jumped by a large chunk.
The number of complete crystals required for a character to level up from 9 to 10 was the most.
There was less than a quarter of the experience bar left to level up.
"Creak, Creak, Creak…"
The sound of vines growing and entangling could be heard in the corridor again.
The vine zombies had strong vitality. Even though they had been hit by a violent explosion not long ago, some of them were still alive.
They stood up shakily from the ground and moved toward Fang Heng again.
Fang Heng raised the focused flamethrower again.
Before coming to the town hospital, he didn't expect to meet the vine zombies.
Due to the limited load, he only brought five cans of fuel.
After the previous battle, there were only two cans left.
Judging from the number of morgue cabinets in the morgue, there were only about 150 vine zombies in there at most.
This explosion had destroyed at least two-thirds of them, so there shouldn't be much left in the first underground floor.
There was almost enough fuel left.
"Boom!"
The flamethrower roared again, burning the remaining vine zombies in the passage into black ash.
[Hint: You have killed the corpse vine parasite*11. You have obtained a sample of the corpse vine parasite*10, 566 survival points, a complete evolution crystal*9 and a Tier 1 evolution crystal*1.]
[Hint: You have accumulated a sample of the corpse vine parasite*163. Current side mission completion rate: 326%.]
After cleaning up the remaining vine zombies, Fang Heng went to the entrance of the basement to check.
The entrance of the underground passage had been completely blocked by the falling gravel.
This was the special design of Hao Zhou. He had installed the small explosive packs at the precise location.
He used the explosion to block the intersection.
This way, Fang Heng could temporarily avoid the trouble of dealing with the vine zombies in the basement.
He needed to focus on dealing with the zombie crowd attracted by the explosion outside!
Fang Heng licked his lips.
He had already heard the sound of zombies scratching the door of the hospital.
Outside the hospital, the zombies were attracted by the explosion and were rushing crazily toward the hospital.
They surrounded the entire hospital and had already tried to attack the windows and doors of the hospital.
These were all normal phenomena.
The sound would stimulate the zombies.
According to the game experience in this body's memory, Fang Heng estimated that the zombies outside the hospital would keep scratching the door for about three to five hours.
After about two to three days, the zombies around the hospital would gradually disperse.
The first three to five hours were the most critical!
Fang Heng looked at the time again.
There were 15 minutes left before his zombie clones were resurrected.
The plan began!
Fang Heng quickly went upstairs and came to the staff restaurant on the second floor of the hospital.
The terrain here was more open.
The environment was more suitable for the zombie clones to fight.
In the restaurant, two ordinary zombies pounced on Fang Heng.
Fang Heng waved his machete and quickly killed the remaining zombies in the restaurant.
Then, he reinforced all the windows in the restaurant with wooden planks and made several bonfires for lighting.
After all the preparations were done, Fang Heng stood quietly on the spot.
The screams of the zombies were getting closer and closer.
Apparently, they had broken through the windows and the gate of the hospital and rushed into the hospital.
A few minutes later, Fang Heng heard the zombies start to hit the entrance door of the restaurant.
Fang Heng waited quietly.
The entrance had been reinforced several times, so it could still hold on for a while.
"10 seconds left."
Fang Heng flipped through the game log and counted down softly.
"9,8,7…"
When the countdown for the resurrection of the zombie clones arrived, dozens of illusory magic arrays gradually appeared around Fang Heng's feet.
One by one, zombie clones wearing lumberjack uniforms crawled out of the magic arrays.
They all held wooden spears in their hands.
"They're here! They're resurrected!"
Fang Heng controlled the resurrected zombies to gather in front of the entrance of the restaurant and gave the order to the zombie clones to guard the restaurant.
Meanwhile, he held a shotgun in his hand and carefully retreated to the back.
More and more zombies gathered outside the door, and the sound of scratching on the door became louder and louder.
"Bang!!"
The door was broken through.
A group of zombies rushed into the room like a tide.
Then, they were pierced through with the wooden spears held by the zombie clones who were prepared for this.
"Chi! Chi Chi!"
For a moment, the restaurant was filled with the dry sound of wooden spears piercing into flesh.
Due to the enhancement of Fang Heng's body, the attributes of the zombie clones were also enhanced.
The most direct effect was that the zombie clones used to need more than ten stabs to kill an ordinary zombie of the same kind. Now, they only needed six or seven stabs.
Moreover, the interval between stabs had also improved a lot.
The efficiency of killing the enemies had been greatly increased!
The 45 zombie clones formed a stable defensive line and killed the zombies one by one!
Normal zombies couldn't break through this defensive line at all.
They fell in front of the line one by one as if they were waiting for death.
[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed a normal zombie. You have gained 2 survival points.]
[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed a normal zombie. You have gained 2 survival points.]

Rows of game notifications appeared, filling up the game log window.
