Chapter 11: Clearing the lumberyard

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

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

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

He hid in a bush and observed in the dark.

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

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

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

He rubbed his hands excitedly.

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

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

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

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

“Chi!”

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

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

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

It continued to stand there in a daze.

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

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

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

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

[Hint: Your zombie clone has killed...]

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

Hack, this game was awesome!

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

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

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

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

Killing monsters without suffering any injuries!

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

“I’m rich, I’m rich!” he thought to himself gleefully.

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

“Bang!”

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

“Bang!!”

“Bang! Bang!!”

The blood mist exploded one after another.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Good stuff!

A mountain bike!

Fang Heng’s eyes lit up!

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

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

There was also the steel logging axe!

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

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

“I’m rich, I’m really rich!”

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

Gasoline!

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

Frozen dumplings!

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

Eh? There were even clothes?

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

Fang Heng took a look at the clothing description.

Item: Lumberyard jacket

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

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

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

“Not bad, not bad, it fits very well.”

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

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

The harvest after clearing out the lumberyard camp was amazing.

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

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

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

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

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

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