n“This…”
n
n“Can someone tell me what happened here?”
n
nOn the small slope outside the prison, Lu Yu and Zhou Yi were shocked.
n
nWhere were the zombies?
n
nThey had worked hard to complete the mission and finally bought the earth-made bombs from the apocalypse merchant.
n
nThey were about to come back and blow a hole in the prison’s barbed wire fence to release the zombies.
n
nEverything was ready.
n
nBut where were the zombies?
n
nWhere did the zombies go?
n
nThe entire prison was empty. Not even half of the zombies could be seen.
n
nCould it be…
n
nAlthough Lu Yu already had the answer in his head, he still couldn’t help but ask Zhou Yi for confirmation.
n
n“Could it be that someone cleaned up this prison area and took over this prison for themselves?”
n
nLu Yu felt that this was the closest answer to the truth.
n
nZhou Yi didn’t say anything.
n
nHe stood on the small slope in a daze, his eyes a little dull.
n
nLu Yu nudged Zhou Yi.
n
n“Ah Yi! Wake Up! Wake up quickly.”
n
n“Ha.”
n
nZhou Yi came back to his senses. His mouth was bitter as he smiled self-mockingly.
n
nWere all the players so strong these days?
n
nThey could single-handedly take care of so many zombies?
n
nOr was he too weak?
n
nHe had been dealt too many blows in the past few days!
n
nNow, even the prison mission that he had been planning for so long was taken away by someone!
n
nWhat a disgrace!
n
nZhou Yi felt that he was struck by a blow.
n
nHe even began to seriously doubt himself.
n
nHe felt that he should not have chosen the new server’s zombie apocalypse as the company’s new goal.
n
n“Boss, don’t worry. Even if someone cleaned up the prison square, the mission might not have been triggered yet.”
n
nSeeing that Zhou Yi didn’t look right, Lu Yu hurriedly tried to console him.
n
n“Building No. 3 is also very dangerous. No matter how fast that player is, he can’t possibly clean up both the prison square and Building No. 3 together!”
n
n“Yes, you’re right!”
n
nZhou Yi patted his cheeks to cheer himself up.
n
nHe hadn’t lost yet!
n
nHe couldn’t afford to lose!
n
nNow, his entire company was betting on this game.
n
nFailure meant that all the years of hard work had been in vain and the family business had been destroyed in his hands.
n
nIt wasn’t time to admit defeat yet!
n
nZhou Yi forced himself to cheer up.
n
n“Let’s go into Building No. 3 together and check it out. Confirm that inside…”
n
nZhou Yi stopped mid-sentence.
n
nHe saw that a window on the second floor of Building No. 3 had been opened from inside.
n
nThen, a chubby head popped out from inside.
n
nIt was a survivor!
n
nHe stuck his head out from the window in boredom and looked out at the scenery. He held a skewer of grilled meat in his left hand and a bottle of beer in his right hand.
n
nHe looked like he had nothing to worry about.
n
nSeeing this, Zhou Yi fell into silence once again.
n
nThe confidence that he had just built up was instantly destroyed by more than half.
n
nLu Yu was also unable to say anything for a long time.
n
nNow, they could be sure that not only the entire prison square, even Building No. 3 had been completely cleaned up by a group of players…
n
nMoreover, this group of people were living quite comfortably.
n
n“Cheer up, Boss!”
n
n“Even so, it can only mean that they cleaned up Building No. 3!”
n
n“We still have a chance! What if they didn’t find the diary left by the prison officers?”
n
n“That thing was hidden so well, Building No. 3 is so big and there are so many cabinets on the second floor. Ordinary people wouldn’t even think of going to the mezzanine.”
n
nYes, there was still hope.
n
n“I haven’t lost yet!”
n
nZhou Yi raised his head again and muttered to himself as if he was trying to convince himself.
n
n“Come, let’s go in and talk to the people inside.”
n
nThe two of them walked down the slope and waved at Liao Bufan at the window on the second floor.
n
nLiao Bufan saw the two sneaky people, threw away the beer bottle and jumped off the platform on the second floor.
n
nHe carefully walked forward and asked through the three layers of barbed wire.
n
n“Hey, you two have been watching over there for a long time, right? What are you here for?”
n
nZhou Yi adjusted his emotions and stood outside the barbed wire to maintain a safe distance from Liao Bufan.
n
n“Hello, we have no bad intentions. I am the boss of Soaring Gaming Technology Company. I happened to pass by here and want to discuss a collaboration with your boss. Is your boss inside now?”
n
nIn his heart, Zhou Yi had already tacitly acknowledged that the other party was a gaming company or a player guild team.
n
nZhou Yi frowned.
n
n“Eh? Boss? You’re here to look for Fang Heng?”
n
nFang Heng!?
n
nThis name shocked Zhou Yi and Lu Yu.
n
nIt was him? That God?
n
nWhat the hell! So it wasn’t a gaming company!
n
nIt was God!
n
nHe cleared out the entire prison!
n
nBut on second thought, it made sense.
n
nBesides him, who else could empty the entire prison square and the zombies in Building No. 3?
n
nZhou Yi felt bitter in his heart.
n
nAfter all this time, it was still him.
n
nLu Yu had an idea and quickly replied.
n
n“Right, right, right. We’re all friends of Fang Heng. I’ve added him as a friend before. My name is Lu Yu.”
n
nLiao Bufan rolled his eyes. He turned on his survival radio and sent an emergency message to Fang Heng.
n
nCoincidentally, Fang Heng was still in the prison today.
n
nLiao Bufan: “Fang Heng, someone said that they’re from some company and they’re here to work with you. One of them said that he’s your friend, Lu Yu.”
n
nFang Heng: “There is such a person. Take them to the sentry cabin first. I’ll be right there.”
n
nAfter receiving Fang Heng’s confirmation, Liao Bufan nodded to Lu Yu and Fang Heng.
n
n“Alright then, follow me to the cabin.”
n
nLiao Bufan said as he took out a pistol from his backpack and pointed it at the cabin on the side.
n
n“Let’s be clear, don’t try to play any tricks!”
n
nWhen he saw Liao Bufan taking out the pistol, Zhou Yi’s heart jumped.
n
nGun!
n
nHe turned to look at Lu Yu.
n
nIt was a gun!
n
nThe mission that they had spent money to buy stated that the reward for completing the first stage of the prison’s hidden mission was a pistol!
n
nLu Yu did not notice Zhou Yi’s gaze and asked in surprise, “You, you already have a gun?”
n
n“Hehe, not bad, right? I found it in the prison.”
n
nWhen Zhou Yi heard that, his face turned ashen and he could not say a word.
n
nIt was over!
n
nIt was all over!
n
nThe prison guard’s diary must have been discovered.
n
nWhat was worse was that they had even completed the first stage of the mission and found the safe that the prison guard had left behind.
n
nAll their efforts over the past few days had been in vain…
n
nLu Yu’s smile was abnormally awkward.
n
n“Then… Then you guys are amazing.”
n
n“Hehe, isn’t that right?”
n
nThe surprised expressions on the two people’s faces made Liao Bufan feel quite pleased.
n
nThese two days, he had also been greatly triggered by Fang Heng.
n
nHe needed to find a place to vent his frustration and calm his mind.
n
nThese two people were not bad at all.
n
nLiao Bufan continued to brag about himself.
n
n“Good fellow, you guys don’t know that this prison is not that simple. There is a basement inside.”
n
nThe expression on both Lu Yu and Zhou Yi changed in unison.
n
nBasement!
n
nThe basement of the second stage of the mission was extremely difficult. One had to pass through a long passageway in the basement.
n
nCould it be…
n
nCould it be that he has already started working on the second stage of the mission?
