nHint: Your zombie clone has obtained coal*21, your basic mining experience points 29.

nHint: Your zombie clone has obtained coal*16, your basic mining experience points 21.

nHint: Your zombie clone has obtained coal*22…

nHint: Your mining skill level has been upgraded to Level 2.

nHalf an hour later, seeing that the zombies had found coal, Fang Heng patted the dust off his pants and stood up from the ground.

nIt was time to go back and see what the accommodation for tonight was going to be like.

nThe night was approaching.

nZhou Yi and Lu Yu divided the work and cleaned up some of the zombies around the hut. Then, they reinforced the wooden doors and windows of the hut to ensure its safety at night.

nEveryone lit a bonfire in the hut.

n“You two have worked hard these past few days!”

nFang Heng casually took out a handful of cold beer from his backpack and placed it beside the bonfire. Then, he threw two cans of beer to the two of them.

n“Sorry for displaying my immature skill but tonight, I’ll be cooking for all. Come and have a taste of my cooking.”

nIt was a big skewer of meat!

nThis was Fang Heng’s ultimate skill.

nIn the game, with the addition of the recipe skill, the taste of the big skewer of meat was so good that it was out of the world!

nOne could never get tired of it!

nFor this reason, Fang Heng even carried a barbecue grill with him. He could eat whenever he wanted to.

nHe took out the meat pieces and made them into skewers. He placed them on the grill and kept turning them, just like a chef.

nThe oil from the fatty acids of the meat sizzled under the heat.

nThe aroma of the skewers drifted directly into Lu Yu and Zhou Yi’s nostrils.

nThey couldn’t help but drool!

nIn the zombie apocalypse game, Lu Yu and Zhou Yi were considered professional players.

nThey had been studying the game’s strategy, so they knew a lot about the game.

nHowever, despite their rich experience, all they had been eating these days were baked potatoes, wild vegetables, roasted berries and roasted bird eggs…

nThey had to live a miserable life, barely having enough to eat.

nAfter all, they had been desperately completing the apocalypse merchant’s mission during the day and earning survival points to exchange for earth-made bombs. They didn’t have the extra time to go and find food.

nThey had never thought that there would be someone in the game who could actually be eating big skewers of meat and drinking wine so happily!

nWhen they saw Fang Heng sprinkled cumin on the skewered meat and carefully coated it with a layer of secret sauce, both of their eyes were wide open.

nWhat the heck!

nThey were wondering if he was here to survive the game or to participate in a gourmet competition?

nThis kind of behaviour was too much!

nFang Heng raised the beer can.

n“It’s been hard on the two of you. Cheers! Let’s continue to collaborate in the future!”

n“Happy cooperation! If you need our help in the future, feel free to look for us. We are very reliable!”

nZhou Yi held up the big meat skewer and took a bite.

nIt was delicious!

nThe gravy was packed with freshness, and the fats from the meat were bursting in his mouth!

nThe seasoning blended perfectly!

nThe slightly bursting taste enhanced the aroma of the meat and flowed down from the nose to the throat.

nDelicacies could heal the soul and chase away fatigue.

nZhou Yi ate skewers of meat and drank beer.

nHis mood for the past few days had been on the low side as he was constantly affected by Fang Heng’s actions. But he seemed to have finally recovered a little bit and currently, he could enjoy the hard-won happiness during the apocalypse.

nHe had his fill.

nLu Yu and Zhou Yi strongly requested to be responsible for tonight’s vigil as an affirmation of the meal.

nFang Heng did not object.

nThe few of them began to chat casually again.

n“Oh right, God, although we have defeated Prisoner Snake and the others today, we still have to be careful.”

n“Oh?” Fang Heng was surprised. He put down the beer in his hand. “They still dare to come?”

n“God, don’t forget that in a few days, the game will open up a channel transmission service.”

nZhou Yi explained to Fang Heng with a straight face.

n“When the time comes, all players below level 5 in the King of Gods’ game can spend their points to enter our game world.”

n“Prisoner Snake is famous for his bad character, but many people don’t want to provoke him.”

n“He used to join a gaming guild called ‘Dawn’. This time, they failed to attack the prison. They probably guessed that it was you who established the super-large shelter.”

n“If he reports to the guild about what happened in the prison, I’m afraid you’ll be in trouble.”

n“Dawn…”

nFang Heng muttered softly and nodded.

nThis body had the memories of the guild.

nDawn had a very bad reputation in the game. Most of the players in the guild were a bunch of villains.

nIt was indeed true.

nAfter the prison and the mercenaries were exposed, Fang Heng felt that he had to face those greedy villains.

nAnd as time passed, the restrictions of the game would gradually be opened up.

nTwo days later, the ban on players below Level 5 would be lifted.

nAfter a month, players below Level 10 would also be able to use their King of Gods’ points to enter the game.

nFang Heng had a premonition that trouble was gradually approaching.

nBut he was not afraid of trouble.

nIn the beginning, he hid his identity carefully and developed silently. He had made this decision so that he can buy more time for the prison to develop and avoid unwanted attention.

nBut it would also greatly sacrifice his development speed.

nFang Heng felt that if the enemy was coming, then let them come!

nWhat he wanted to do was to always be one step ahead of the players and act on his initiative!

nHe would use his strength to crush them and he was not afraid of it!

nIf they came, he would kill them, one after another!

nAlthough Fang Heng was afraid of death, he still preferred to face them head-on!

n…

nThe next day.

nThe sun rose, dispelling the darkness.

nZhou Yi, who was on the vigil, stretched himself.

nHe was lucky.

nIt was very quiet last night. No zombies came to disturb him.

nFurthermore, he had eaten and drunk enough last night. His mood was much better than the last few days.

nHe stood up and prepared to go outside to breathe some fresh air.

n“Come on, Zhou Yi! Don’t be decadent! Face life positively!”

nZhou Yi patted his cheeks to encourage himself.

nHe also realized that he had been suffering from ‘blows’ by Fang Heng during this period and his morale was somewhat low.

n“Clack…”

nPushing open the wooden door of the hut, Zhou Yi was greatly surprised.

nWhat was this?

nOutside the hut, the stones that were gathered earlier on had piled up into more than ten two-meter-high ‘small hills’.

nThese small hills were also mixed with small black stones.

nBlack stones…

nHmm?

nWas it coal ore?

nZhou Yi was puzzled.

nWhat was going on?

nHe wondered if he was hallucinating because he had only slept for four hours last night.

nZhou Yi slowly walked to the front of a small hill and picked up a small piece of black coal.

nThe coal immediately disappeared from his hand.

nHint: You have obtained coal*1.

nIt was real!

nIt wasn’t an illusion, it was just coal!

nBloody hell!

nWhere did all these coal mines come from?

nOut of thin air?

nWere ghosts behind this? Was there a bug in the system?

nZhou Yi was puzzled and he looked around.

nHe saw a zombie staggering over from afar.

nZhou Yi reflexively raised his weapon.

nThis zombie was wearing the lumberjack uniform.

nIt was probably summoned by God.

nZhou Yi put down his weapon and slowly took a few steps back, still maintaining his vigilance.

nThe lumberjack zombie ignored Zhou Yi and had no desire to attack.

nIt walked past Zhou Yi and came before the newest small hill.

nThen, Zhou Yi saw a scene that he would never forget for the rest of his life.

nThe lumberjack zombie took out pieces of rocks from its backpack and threw them at the small hill, adding bricks and tiles to the small hill that was erected high up.

nAfter doing all this, it turned around and went back the way it came from.

nBehind it, two more zombies walked back one after another, repeating the same action.

n“This…”

n“No way…”

n“Could it be that these zombies can mine?”

nZhou Yi felt like he was going crazy.

n“Impossible! How can zombies help players mine?”

n“This is illogical!”

nHe immediately followed the zombies, wanting to see what had happened with his own eyes.

nFive minutes later, Zhou Yi arrived at the mountain wall.

nAfter one night, a ten-meter-deep hole had been dug in the mountain wall

nThe group of zombies he saw yesterday were waving their stone pickaxes and pounding the mountain wall with all their might.

nZhou Yi silently sat down.

nHe didn’t know what was going on…

nHis mood suddenly became bad again.

n
