nAlthough the experience bar was full, Lin Ye did not choose to upgrade immediately.

nAccording to the hint from his Civilization Archive,

nWhen the experience bar reached 300%, it would trigger multiple upgrades.

nTherefore, he was waiting for the more than 500 zombie corpses to be converted into zombie souls.

nThat would provide him with close to 8,000 experience points. The probability of reaching 300% was very high.

nIt was just that there were too many zombie corpses, and there was only one converter. The conversion efficiency was lacking.

n129

/537 Zombies. Required time: One hour and forty minutes!

nLooking at the experience bar that was slowly increasing, Lin Ye frowned slightly and thought to himself, “After this, I have to increase the size and level of the Zombie Converter.. When Adelia and Zhang Liang return, including the treasure chests that I have obtained, it should be enough for a huge boost in resources. Just relying on one Intermediate Converter is not enough.”

nJust as he was thinking this, he suddenly heard a cry for help from outside.

nImmediately after, the noise came closer and closer, sounding through the entire graveyard.

n

n

n“My lord, bad news, bad news.”

nTru rushed into the bunker in a panic, gasping for breath. “Adelia, something happened to Adelia.”

n“What?!!”

nLin Ye’s eyes flashed with shock and anger.

nAdelia was the first Class 3 soldier that he had recruited. At the same time, she was a noble of the ranger race, and her status was respected.

nShe was a genius with elemental power, and was also the NPC that he had planned to bind the contract with.

nIn less than half a day, something happened?

nA sharp glint flashed across his eyes. He hoped that this wasn’t Zhang Liang’s doing.

nOtherwise, even if I cannot beat him to death, he will only be a tool for life.

nA moment later, a few injured rangers were carrying Adelia steadily back to the bunker.

nBehind them was a pale and limping Zhang Liang.

n“My lord…”

nAt this moment, Adelia was extremely weak. Her arm seemed to have been hit by some kind of corrosive poison, and her skin had sickly black patches.

nThese patches were extremely aggressive and were constantly corrupting her blood.

nIf she did not have the power of the elements to fend for herself, she would have died long ago.

n“Stop talking. Rest. I will think of a way to save you!” Lin Ye raised his hand and turned to Zhang Liang.

n“It’s not me.” Zhang Liang raised his head stubbornly and said angrily, “No matter how scheming I am, I will never harm my savior. Adelia got hurt by a Level 4 Venomous Zombie when she was trying to protect me. I swear, if I did it on purpose, my entire family will die a horrible death!”

nIn fact, he was extremely angry himself. With his awakened talent, he thought he had found another Silver Treasure Chest.

nBut in the end, because Lin Ye had conquered his territory, his talent became much weaker, and he didn’t discover the Venomous Zombie hidden in the bushes.

nWhen they killed the Level 1 and 2 zombies on the periphery and picked up the Silver Treasure Chest, the Venomous Zombie attacked.

nAt Level 4, their intelligence was a little higher than a Level 3 zombie.

nIt opened his mouth and spat out a large amount of black venom. After failing its attack, it ran away without looking back.

nZhang Liang was still an ordinary human, so his reaction speed was too slow and he was unable to avoid it at all.

nAs a wind elemental ranger, Adelia was the best in terms of speed. Even a Level 4 zombie was far inferior to her.

nIf she was alone, with her agile body and excellent combat observation skills, she would have easily dodged it.

nBut in order to save Zhang Liang, she risked her life and grabbed Zhang Liang as she jumped back.

nAlthough she avoided most of the venom, the remaining venom was too fast and landed on her arm.

nThe venom corroded flesh upon contact, causing her to immediately lose her ability to fight. She could only rush back.

n“I have my own conclusions as to whether it was you or not. Give me all the treasure chests you got from this trip,” Lin Ye said.

n“Lin Ye, Adelia is your subordinate. Why are you more concerned about the treasure chests than saving her? Are you even human?”

nZhang Liang was flaming mad.

nHe pointed at Lin Ye and scolded him, as if he wanted to vent the anger he had endured during the day.

n“Tru, this guy is confused. Find a tall tree and hang him through the night to clear his head.”

nLin Ye forcefully snatched Zhang Liang’s Civilization Archive and took out the 18 treasure chests.

nThere were 15 sandalwood treasure chests, 2 bronze ones, and 1 silver one.

nIndeed a talent for ‘treasure hunting’. Although the total number was not as many as what he had obtained from fighting zombies, its quality was excellent.

n“Lin Ye, you bastard!” Zhang Liang’s eyes turned red.

nEven though Tru had given him a few tight slaps, he still continued to scold him relentlessly.

n“How noisy, take him away.” Lin Ye flicked his hand.

nTru, after the reprimand from Lin Ye, became more obedient. Without another word, he took a wet vine and carried Zhang Liang out.

nOutside the bunker, Xun Mingyuan and the others looked pitifully at Zhang Liang who was tied up.

nDamn, another unlucky guy.

nAlthough they did not know what had happened, they could not help but be glad that they had been wiser.

nThey were beaten blue and black, but it was better than being hung on a tree.

nAt the same time, they were wary of Lin Ye.

nWithout Zhang Liang as a thorn, Lin Ye let the unimportant people out, only leaving the cat-eared chef, Nicole, to take care of Adelia on the second floor.

nHe brought Worker One, Tru and the others to the back of the graveyard.

nThis place was big and suitable for opening treasure chests.

nHe couldn’t count on Earth’s doctor to save Adelia. And before that, he’d heard Nicole talk about it.

nThere were medical professionals in this world as well.

nAs long as there was a Recruitment Order or unit blueprint, he could summon it from the underworld.

n“The zombie that injured Adelia is a Level 4 Venomous Zombie. It needs to be at least a Class 4 healer.”

nTru’s face was grim, and he felt that hope was bleak.

nEven though he knew that his lord was extremely lucky, using a low level treasure chest to get a Class 4 Medical Professional was simply a fool’s dream.

n“Let’s give it a try. There are so many treasure chests. I don’t believe that none of them will drop it.”

nLin Ye was furious, taking out all of his gains for today.

nIncluding the treasure chests that he had just obtained, there were 32 sandalwood treasure chests, 5 bronze treasure chests, and 1 silver treasure chest.

n“Let’s begin!”

nLin Ye took a deep breath and quickly opened the treasure chests.

nYou have obtained a Level 1 Wooden Fence blueprint!

n

n

nYou have obtained a Class 2 Soldier upgrade scroll!

nYou have obtained a Bunker Upgrade Scroll!

nYou have obtained living supplies—a box of instant noodles!

nYou have obtained a white tier weapon, flying dagger!

n….

nWith 100xReward, you can choose between:

n…

nYou have received a Class 1 Healing Priest recruitment order!

nWhen he reached the thirty-first treasure chest, Lin Ye’s eyes lit up.

n“It finally dropped!”
