Bang, bang~
Two bullets accurately shot into the mutant zombie’s head, killing the monster.
Although the power of the baseball bat was much greater than that of the pistol, capable of killing this half-attribute zombie with one strike, Song Jian really didn’t want to experience the feeling of using a baseball bat to smash shit anymore.
“Ranged attacks are also safer!” Song Jian thought to himself, “You’re already dead before you even get close to me. That feels pretty cool!”
After the mutant zombie died, it turned into black ash. The faint smell of corpses in the room slowly dissipated as well, and five or six items emitting a gray glow scattered around the ash.
Song Jian first propped up the triangular metal ladder, went up to get Ke’er, and brought her inside.
“Alright, this is our safe house from now on. When it’s time for you to leave the game later, leave from here,” Song Jian told Ke’er.
“Okay.” Ke’er nodded, and her gaze quickly fell on the grey-glowing items. Pointing at the ground, she said, “Meat, delicious meat.”
Song Jian picked up the dropped items and found that they were all “Zombie Meat”, which left him momentarily speechless.
“Is this supposed to lead me towards a career as a chef?” Song Jian thought to himself.
Despite being full, Ke’er was still delighted to see the “Zombie Meat” emitting a faint scent of grass and greens. Her face was full of happy smiles.
After putting the zombie meat into his bag, Song Jian began searching the entire villa.
It took him more than an hour to carefully search the three-story villa. On the second floor of the villa, Song Jian found a large pile of living supplies, various foods and drinking water that could satisfy two people for half a year.
However, it’s a pity that most of these foods and water had gone bad. Song Jian had to throw them all away;
In a bedroom on the third floor, Song Jian did find a double-barrel shotgun and a dozen shotgun shells. To store them, Song Jian reluctantly took out two more gold bracelets.
“Beretta Double-Barrel Shotgun (Green), two-handed weapon, Attack 12-21, Critical Hit +1, Equipment Requirements: 5 points Strength, 4 points Constitution; Can you take it out of the game: No”
The shotgun had two barrels side by side, it could be loaded with two bullets at a time. Although it had a longer reload time, its power was much greater than Song Jian’s P18C pistol, and it even had a “Critical Hit +1” attribute.
After finishing the search, Song Jian returned to the living room. Ke’er was sitting obediently on the worn-out sofa, with her hands supporting her on the sofa, and her head looking around, appearing very well-behaved.
All the doors and windows of this villa were sealed with sturdy wooden bars, not allowing for any sunlight to pass through. Heavy furniture was piled up behind the bars, so even at night, when the mutant zombie’s attributes would recover, it would take a long time to break through the windows or doors. It was very safe.
“Huh, what’s this?” As Song Jian was inspecting the doors and windows, he suddenly noticed a red border appearing around the edges of the doors and windows. Next to it was a line of text prompt: “Do you want to transform the room’s main door?”
Next to the text, there was also a row of main door diagrams that could be viewed by sliding. However, only the first door diagram at the front was usable in white, and the rest of the door diagrams were all sealed in red and could not be transformed.
“Wooden Door, Defense 200 points, requires 35 wood materials.” Song Jian’s gaze locked onto the first door diagram, and soon, the materials needed to build this door appeared before his eyes.
Behind the “Wooden Door” was a “Stone Door, Defense 500 points, requiring 50 stone materials”, but the icon for this stone door was red, indicating that it couldn’t be built.
The current defense of this villa’s main door was only 98 points. If it were a stone door, it would obviously be more secure. However, Song Jian didn’t know how to gather wood and stone materials at the moment.
Then, Song Jian carefully observed other parts of the room. As expected, like the main door, the other parts of the room could be transformed and upgraded into higher-defense structures. Windows, walls, stairs, skylights, and even floors could all be transformed and upgraded.
“In this way, can’t I build a strong safe house to ensure my body’s safety when I leave the game?” Song Jian’s mouth curved up slightly, and he felt as if a heavy stone had been lifted from his heart, making him feel much more relaxed.
This apocalypse survival game was very strange and life-threatening, but if one could persist in the game, there were also many benefits.
Just the Attribute Fruit that could increase one’s physical fitness made Song Jian’s heart race. This was a treasure that could directly enhance one’s physical fitness.
“Perhaps I can gain the ability to fly and escape as mentioned in myths and legends from this game.” Song Jian’s mind once again conjured the image of the monster floating in the air, constantly absorbing the essence of the moon.
“Uncle, let’s go out and fight monsters. It’s too boring in here,” Ke’er said suddenly, shaking her legs.
“Fight monsters? Aren’t you afraid?” Song Jian asked curiously.
Mutant zombies were quite terrifying for a ten-year-old girl.
“Uncle, you’re so childish. It’s just a game!” Ke’er said with a contemptuous look on her face.
“Ke’er, how much longer until you can leave the game?” Song Jian asked after a moment of silence. He didn’t know if Ke’er understood what it meant to have only one life in the game.
“About an hour and a half, I guess.” Ke’er glanced at the game interface.
“Alright, uncle will take you out to fight monsters,” Song Jian nodded with a smile, “But we can only fight for one hour. After that, we’ll return here, and when your time is up, you’ll go offline. Don’t ever enter this game again, okay? Promise uncle.”
Ke’er tilted her head as if contemplating. A moment later, she showed a smile and nodded, “Okay, Uncle, this game isn’t that fun anyway. Ke’er doesn’t want to play it anymore. I won’t play this game after I leave.”
Song Jian nodded and carried Ke’er as they began to climb the ladder, leaving the three-story villa through the skylight.
Outside the villa, there was a small yard about five or six square meters in size. It was surrounded by a fence that was around waist-high. However, the surrounding fence had been damaged by now and was rotting away in the mud. The yard was overgrown with weeds and plants like ivy which covered several of the villa’s exterior walls. The highest point had already surpassed the first-floor roof and was climbing towards the second floor.
Ke’er held the crossbow with both hands, crouched down, and looked around cautiously, closely following behind Song Jian.
Song Jian moved close to the wall of a building and cautiously peeked forward.
Although mutant zombies had their attributes halved during the day, if they accidentally attracted the attention of a large number of zombies, Song Jian wasn’t sure if they would be able to successfully escape back to the safe house. He hadn’t forgotten how the man with the baseball bat had died.
Upon reaching a corner, Song Jian cautiously poked his head out; fr eewebn ovel.com
Hmm? What is that?
