Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio “Clang!” The metal basin on the table fell to the ground. The ear-piercing crash woke Fang Heng up from his sleep. “I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I accidentally woke you up. I didn’t mean to.” The girl was about 20 years old. Her cheeks were round and she looked somewhat immature. She repeatedly lowered her head and apologized to Fang Heng. “Oh, it’s okay.” Fang Heng smiled kindly and got up from the lounge chair. The fatigue experienced in the game would be reflected in reality. After staying up all night, Fang Heng didn’t even want to spend time going to the hotel next door to sleep after he went offline. He directly moved a lounge chair and placed it in the lounge of Team 3. He fell asleep immediately. He slept very comfortably this time. Fang Heng stretched lazily and looked at the time. It was already past one in the afternoon. The girl was very apologetic for waking up Fang Heng. She introduced herself, “Hello, I’m a new intern, Pei Anan.” “My name is Fang Heng. What a coincidence, I’m also a new intern.” “I’m sorry, can you help me change the water? Thank you.” Pei Anan looked petite, so it was a little difficult for her to lift the bucket of water. “Okay, I’ll do it.” Fang Heng said as he walked over to help carry the bucket of water. Hmm? Fang Heng frowned when he lifted the bucket of water. What brand was this bucket of water from? Why was it so light? Could it be a low-quality product? Fang Heng easily lifted the bucket of water and placed it on the water dispenser. Then, he carefully looked at the brand name of the bucket of water. This was strange. It was just an ordinary five-gallon bucket of water. Could it be that this body had been training all along? This did not make sense, wasn’t he a gaming nerd? “Thank you.” “It’s okay.” Fang Heng waved his hand and stopped thinking about this. “Where are the others? Why did they let a girl like you carry water? Are they bullying you?” “No, no. I saw that everyone was busy, so I didn’t want to disturb them.” Pei Anan stuck out her tongue. “In the end, I woke you up. I’m sorry.” “Hahaha, it’s okay.” Fang Heng replied to her and ran to the company cafeteria to eat. Hmm? There seemed to be something wrong again! Fang Heng thought about it carefully and suddenly felt that it was strange. As he thought about it, he was in the game for the whole of yesterday. In reality, he had not eaten anything for more than a day. He had only drunk a few glasses of water. But now, he did not feel hungry. That was weird. What was the reason? Who cares! Fang Heng couldn’t figure it out, so he just ignored it. After eating, he went to the game cabin to log in. … [Hint: During the time you were offline, your zombie team cut down 823 logs. You have learned a skill-felling.] [You have gained skill-felling experience points 29,127. You have gained a skill-strength training experience points 22,317. You have gained a skill-physique training experience points 24,995.] [Hint: Your skill-felling has been upgraded to level 6.] [Hint: Your skill-strength training has been upgraded to level 6.] [Hint: Your skill-physique training has been upgraded to level 6.] [Hint: Your skill level, strength training and physique training can not exceed your current character level. Please upgrade your character level as soon as possible.] After appearing in the cabin, Fang Heng immediately opened the game log to observe the ‘hack’ situation. It was a good discovery! It turned out that chopping down trees could also increase the skill experience points for strength training and physique training! In addition, one log could produce 1 to 7 wooden planks. The exact amount depended on luck and the level of the production skill. Fang Heng made a slight calculation. With this, he had almost collected enough logs. It would not be a problem for him to use them to create a large level 1 primary shelter. If he still needed more logs, he would go to the entrance of the prison to collect them. It was not even two o’clock and there were still a few hours before sunset. Fang Heng ordered the zombies to stop the felling and go to the prison. The next step was to continue clearing the prison. Speaking of which, the shelter would lose its system protection tonight. Fang Heng judged that it was the early stage of the game, so it was not a big problem. At most, one or two zombies would scratch the door at night. As long as they had an action plan beforehand, it would be easy to deal with the problem. In the morning, Fang Heng had already asked Jimmy to clean up the wandering zombies around the camp. He chose to cut down the trees near the cabin first, in fact, he also had the intention of opening up the nearby field of vision, so that the wandering zombies nearby would be easier to find. The wandering zombies would also be easily attracted by the noise produced by the logging here and be disposed of as soon as possible. That way, they would be safer at night. While he was in thought, Liao Bufan pushed the door open. He walked into the room with a backpack full of logs. “Fang Heng, you’re back!” Seeing Fang Heng, Liao Bufan pointed at one corner of the room and started complaining. “Big brother, look! Look! I’m begging you, please make your zombies stop working. I really can’t do it anymore…” Fang Heng turned around and looked in the direction Liao Bufan was pointing at. Only then did he realize that one-third of the cabin had been filled with logs. “Big brother, do you know that working for you is very tiring?” Liao Bufan looked determined. He emphasized, “You have to pay me extra!” “When the new shelter is completed, I’ll give you a permanent free residency.” Good! The meal ticket was renewed! Liao Bufan was delighted and immediately agreed. “Okay, then it’s a deal, boss!” Riding his mountain bike, Fang Heng rushed back to the prison. After more than ten hours, the zombies in the prison square were scattered again. The number of zombies was much smaller than yesterday. Fang Heng didn’t see any mutated zombies among them. With a wave of his hand, the zombies behind him raised their wooden spears and rushed into the sentry cabin. The zombies climbed into the prison square through the windows of the sentry cabin and started killing. [Hint: Your zombie clone has killed an ordinary zombie. You have gained 2 survival points.] [Hint: Your zombie clone has killed an ordinary zombie. You have gained 1 survival point.] [[Hint: Your zombie clone… ] The game log started flooding with hints again. Seeing that the number of zombies in the prison square was greatly reduced, Fang Heng became bolder. He sneaked into the sentry cabin through the broken iron door. After closing the door, Fang Heng quickly took out a wooden board and reinforced the sentry cabin. [Hint: You have cleaned the sentry cabin and completed the reinforcement. You can try to transform the cabin into a shelter.] Fang Heng poked his head out of the window and carefully observed the square. He was now completely sure that there were no zombies in the prison square. This was easy. He could hack in peace. Fang Heng took out a wooden board from his backpack and completely sealed the window and the door of the sentry cabin. This way, even if the cabin was attacked, it could still last for an hour. “Done.” Fang Heng muttered and made a simple bed and threw it on the ground. Go offline! Get some sleep!
