nChapter 274 Poached!

n“Chi-Chi! Chi!!”

nAt an abandoned factory outside the city.

nTwo Lickers were fighting fiercely.

nFang Heng and a few NPCs were standing in the central control room.

nThrough the surveillance screen, they could observe the tragic situation outside.

nTerrifying!

nThe bloody scene made the NPCs pale.

nFang Heng set up a barbecue grill and sprinkled cumin on the skewers.

n(Hint: Your zombie clone-Licker has killed a Licker. You have received 12 survival points. You have received a complete evolution crystal*1. Current mission completion rate: 35%.

n(Hint: You have completed a large skewer of meat. Your cooking skill experience points 1.

n“Don’t worry, the Lickers outside will all be settled soon. Come, come, come, eat the meat My speciality is cooking. It’s very delicious. Everyone, have a taste.”

nFang Heng distributed the skewers to everyone.

n(Hint: Your friendship with Jiang Cheng, Song Shishi and Li Wen has increased slightly.

nThe room was filled with the aroma of the roasted meat.

nHowever, the scene on the monitor made everyone lose their appetite.

n“Thank you.”

nJiang Cheng took the barbecued meat and took a bite.

nThe aroma of barbecued meat assailed everyone’s nostrils. The texture of the meat was mixed with the mellowness of the oil. The slightly charred skin greatly enhanced the sense of taste and satisfied the taste buds and hungry stomachs.

n“Delicious!”

nSong Shishi did not expect the barbecued meat to be so fragrant!

nAfter the apocalypse, Jiang Cheng and the other survivors were trapped in the factory. They relied on instant noodles and canned food to fill their stomachs every day but the food was barely sufficient. Where could they be able to eat the food so deliciously as now?

n“Thank you, Fang Heng. You saved us. If it weren’t for your Dark Knights, god knows how long we would have been trapped here.”

n“What? Dark Knights?”

nFang Heng blinked at the NPCs.

n“No, no, no. I think you’re mistaken. I’m here to welcome you on behalf of Paradise Island. If you’re willing, I hope you can join our Paradise Island shelter.”

nJiang Cheng and the other NPCs were stunned. They held the skewers and looked up at Fang Heng, confused.

n“Aren’t you from the Dark Knights to bring us back?”

n“Of course not. Have you heard of the prison? It has beautiful scenery and abundant materials. There are professional chefs to take care of three meals a day. There is also a special passage leading to an overseas island…”

n“I promise to provide you with adequate protection.”

n(Hint: Player is evaluating…)

n(Hint: Evaluating the attractiveness of your shelter, your friendship with NPCs…

n“But, but…”

nJiang Cheng looked at his two companions and hesitated. “But, Fang Heng, we have agreed to join the Dark Knights…” “Is that so… Sorry, I didn’t know about this beforehand.”

nFang Heng shook his head and looked troubled.

n“Alright, then I suggest that you consider it.”

nAs Fang Heng said that, the two Lickers slowly climbed out of the shadows behind him.

n“After all, it’s very dangerous to run to the Dark Knights from here. You might be threatened by zombies halfway…”

nJiang Cheng’s face turned slightly pale. Before he could speak, Song Shishi covered his mouth.

n“Mr Fang Heng, Jiang Cheng means that he is willing!”

nLi Wen nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, “Fang Heng, we are very happy to join your shelter. We hope that under your leadership, we can contribute our greatest strength to the construction of the shelter.”

nJiang Cheng struggled for a moment and silently accepted reality.

n(Hint: Jiang Cheng (Speciality: Research; Character evaluation: A-; Loyalty: 63) joins your shelter.

n(Hint: Song Shishi (Speciality: Research; Character evaluation: C ; Loyalty: 87) joins your shelter.

n(Hint: Li Wen (Speciality: Mercenary; Character evaluation: B; Loyalty: 72) joins your shelter.)

n(Hint: Your shelter’s research level has increased.

n(Hint: Your shelter’s research efficiency has increased slightly.

n“That’s great! I knew it! We hit it off the moment we met.”

nHahaha! Success!

nFang Heng was overjoyed.

nHe was simply thrilled to poach others!

nAfter all, it was a game, and Fang Heng did not have any psychological burden when it came to taking advantage of the game’s features.

nOf course, it would be best if he could poach Old Black.

nFang Heng was still very vengeful about the main storyline mission.

nHe roughly looked at the attributes of the NPCs.

nTheir attributes were not bad. A-level researcher was relatively rare.

nInitial loyalty was only 63, which was very low.

nFang Heng was not afraid.

nHis shelter had many benefits.

nAs long as he stayed for a few days, the NPC’s loyalty would increase.

nHe had to trick them back!

nFang Heng checked the situation outside the factory again.

n“Most of the Lickers outside have been cleared. I’ll take you back first. I promise that you’ll love the environment there.”

nJiang Cheng sighed. He felt that the meat in his hands was not fragrant anymore.

n“Let’s hope so.”

n(Hint: Your mission-escort team failed. 300 Dark Knights’ honor points deducted.

nOnly 300 points?

n300 points for an A-level NPC with two complimentary items?

nHahaha!

nHe made a profit!!

nFang Heng was in high spirits. He was not sleepy at all.

nUnder Fang Heng’s escort, Jiang Cheng and the others were brought back to the prison shelter.

nThe thick city walls and sentry tower gave Jiang Cheng and the others a great shock.

nA private shelter?

nNo, it looked more like a fortress rebuilt after a disaster!

nAfter entering the prison and registering, Jiang Cheng received his personal toiletries materials and a few sets of clothes. He took a comfortable hot bath.

nAfter the apocalypse, this was the first time Jiang Cheng stayed in a quiet single room.

nHot food was already on the table.

nFor a moment, Jiang Cheng was in a daze.

nThis living environment was much better than he had expected.

nSince he had come, he should just take it in stride.

n(Hint: Jiang Cheng’s loyalty has increased to 78. There is still a chance that he will leave your shelter by himself. Please take note…

nFive in the morning, Dongxi District.

nFang Heng spent almost an entire night bringing two batches of NPCs back to the shelter.

nThe plan was the same.

nIt was just a lie!

nInitial loyalty was not important.

nAs long as the NPCs were lured back home, their loyalty would quickly increase.

nAfter all, the treatment provided by the prison was very good.

nFang Heng was very confident about this.

nHe sat in front of a bonfire and checked the status of the zombie team.

nThe third task on hand was more troublesome. He needed to dig through the construction site that had been buried by the explosion.

nThere were a few survivors trapped below.

nFang Heng didn’t need to do it himself. A group of zombies were slowly digging with shovels.

nAs he waited in boredom, a red game hint flashed across his vision.

n(Hint: Your apocalypse radio has received an emergency message.

nEh? A message from the survival radio?

nFang Heng was stunned for a moment.

nStrange, the range for the personal survival radio to receive messages was extremely small. This was also Dongxi District, so there shouldn’t be many good friends here.

nWho sent this message to him?

n
