nChapter 285 Practice

nAt night, they ate and drank to their heart’s content.

nFang Heng invited the players from Hao Zhou’s team to stay in a luxurious single room in the shelter for a day.

nAfter a day’s rest, Hao Zhou and the others would officially form a team and enter the advanced game world.

nFang Heng did not have any plans to enter the advanced game world for a short period.

nHe still had more important things to deal with.

nWhen he was delivering the goods, Fang Heng had been offline for more than ten hours, so he wasn’t sleepy at all.

nHe would try out the skill book that he obtained!

nFang Heng brought more than ten zombie clones to the basement of the shelter.

nIn the game, the player had to read a few specific books to learn about them.

nIt was very troublesome.

nFang Heng had tried to let the zombie clones do it for him before.

nUnfortunately, zombies couldn’t read.

nBut now, it was different.

nThe skill-efficient reading could also be activated by consuming vitality.

nSo…

nCould it also work on zombies?

nZombies didn’t have vitality.

nUnlimited reading!

nFang Heng pondered for a moment and prepared to try it out.

/ (d0t)C0M.

nHe took out a few miscellaneous books from the warehouse and then controlled the zombie clone to walk up to him and use the efficient reading skill to forcefully read the books.

nThe zombie clone held a book and quickly flipped through the pages. A long reading progress bar appeared above its head.

nAt the same time, a hint appeared in Fang Heng’s vision.

n(Hint: Your zombie clone has entered the efficient reading state. By reading the book “How To Become A Top Actor”, you have gained 1 experience point for the efficient reading skill.)

n“Ha! It works!”

nFang Heng slapped his thigh excitedly and immediately called a group of zombies over to the basement.

nThe zombie clones lined up in front of Fang Heng and took out some miscellaneous books from the storage box that were meant for the players to do pleasure reading.

nRows of game hints floated across Fang Heng’s vision.

n(Hint: Your zombie clone has entered the efficient reading state. You have finished reading the book “996! Let’s All Roll It Up!” You have gained 6 experience points for the efficient reading skill.

n(Hint: Your zombie clone…)

n(Hint: Your skill has been upgraded to Level 17, the current upper limit. Please upgrade your character’s level.

nIn just half an hour, the zombie clones had maxed out the efficient reading skill!

nIt was done!

nSeeing the game hints, Fang Heng threw the “2020 Hengtong Movie Theatre Guard’s Diary” he was reading into the bonfire.

nHe immediately opened the character’s attribute to check.

nThe effect of the A level skill was remarkable!

nThe efficient reading skill provided him with 11.8 basic intelligence points!

nThe current character’s total score was 19.5 basic intelligence points!

nCompared to before levelling up the skill, it had more than doubled!

nHe would go to the real world to try out the skill effect!

nFang Heng threw a simple bed on the spot and went offline.

nOffline, Fang Heng couldn’t wait to return to the study room behind the villa, eager to start reading

n“Eh?!

nFang Heng turned on his phone to take a look.

nApart from the important summary of the company’s information sent by his assistant Pei Anan every day, as well as Xia Xi’s persistent greetings and recent reports, he also received a text message from an unknown source.

nThere were only a few words on the text message.

n“Server 5-Old Black.”

nWhat did it mean?

nFang Heng was stunned.

nWhat happened to Server 5?

nThe cell phone number that sent the text message was empty. He could not dial it back even if he wanted to.

n“Tch, the Riddler would die!!”

nAfter thinking for a moment, Fang Heng cursed softly.

nWho cares!

nHe had more important things to do now.

nPreviously, when he was learning the skill, Fang Heng had a premonition.

nSince efficient reading increased the basic attribute of intelligence, did that mean that the speed and efficiency of reading were also related to intelligence?

nThe more Fang Heng thought about it, the more he felt that this guess made sense!

nBack in the study, Fang Heng sat on the futon and meditated.

nAfter all the distracting thoughts were removed from his mind, Fang Heng once again picked up the “Occult Guide” on the low table.

n(Hint: Given that your will has passed the test, your intelligence has also passed the test.

n(Hint: You have obtained the book-Occult Guide (current reading progress: 0.21%).

nFocusing on reading, Fang Heng quickly immersed himself in the contents of the book.

nThe next day, the morning sun gradually lit up the room.

nThe drowsy feeling came again.

n“I can’t read anymore.”

nFang Heng stretched himself and put the book by the side.

nHe casually looked out of the window.

nWhat? It’s already dawn?

nDid he read all night?

nFang Heng was pleasantly surprised.

nLast time, he only read for half an hour and already felt dizzy. This time, not only did he suddenly become engrossed in reading, he managed to read for six hours in a row!

nThat’s right! Intelligence must have something to do with reading!

nFang Heng lowered his head to check the reading progress again.

n(Hint: Current book-“Occult Guide” reading progress 2.82%.

nCompared to last time, the reading progress had greatly increased!

nHowever, Fang Heng was still not satisfied.

nThe reading efficiency was still a little slow.

nIf he wanted to finish reading all the books, he would need to spend more time.

nFeeling a bit helpless, Fang Heng closed the book and sat on the futon. He focused his mind and meditated, quickly recovering the mental strength that he had used up.

n(Hint: Your shelter has completed the construction of Sandy’s art gallery.

n(Hint: Your shelter’s attractiveness has been increased.

n(Hint: The probability of your shelter’s NPC defecting has been permanently reduced by 10%.

n(Hint: Your shelter unlocked art attribute. This attribute can increase the range of your survival radio’s reception and transmission. At the same time, it makes it easier for you to meet NPC survivors.

n(Hint: Every month, you can receive an additional 3 NPCs with specific expertise (hint: only non-hidden expertise; the level of the NPC obtained is random and the highest level obtained is A . You can increase the probability of obtaining high-level NPCs by raising the art level).

nThere was such a good thing?

nEvery month, he would get three NPC survivors with specific expertise for free!

nFang Heng immediately chose the research staff that the shelter currently lacked the most.

n(Hint: Three random NPC survivors with scientific research expertise will visit your shelter within 24 hours. Please be prepared.

n“Fang Heng, look! It’s too beautiful! Isn’t it!”

nSandy stood in the centre of the vast art gallery. He opened his hands and closed his eyes slightly, feeling the aura of art.

n“Hmm… maybe, maybe…”

nThe construction of the art gallery was very simple. It was all basic materials. Once it was ready, it would be built directly via the game system.

nFang Heng pondered in his heart.

nThere were so many players in the prison now. Should he open the art gallery to them and charge another them entrance fees?

nSandy said excitedly, “Fang Heng, to commemorate this incredible day given the reconstruction of an art gallery, I suggest that we celebrate!”

n“Of course! Let’s celebrate. Tonight, we’ll take in a few more survivors and researchers who are wandering outside!”

n“Hey! Fang Heng!” Sandy protested, “Even though our relationship is very good, I don’t like to keep running outside. My artwork needs my care, do you understand what I mean?”

n(Hint: Sandy’s loyalty has been reduced to 97.
