nAfter killing the zombies with two slashes, Fang Heng walked into the room.

n“Eh? What’s that sound?”

nBefore he could explore the dean’s office, Fang Heng suddenly heard something.

nHe turned around and took two steps back, looking at the end of the corridor.

nThere were three short shadows.

nThey were growling threateningly.

n“F*ck, they are zombie dogs!”

nFang Heng said to himself, “This is troublesome.”

nZombie dogs and spider zombies were both famous for their speed and were very difficult to deal with! The zombie dogs were even faster than the spider zombies!

n“Roar!”

nThe three zombie dogs were attracted by Fang Heng’s gunshots. They increased their speed and rushed toward Fang Heng.

n“Bang!”

nFang Heng hurriedly hid in the dean’s office and closed the door. Then, he moved a cabinet to block the wooden door.

nThey were coming.

n“Dong! Dong Dong!”

nFang Heng heard the sound of the three zombie dogs hitting the door with their bodies.

nThe broken wooden door wouldn’t be able to hold on for long.

nFang Heng sneered and extended the muzzle of the shotgun out of the hole made by the shotgun.

n“Boom!”

n“Boom!”

n“Boom!”

nAfter a few shots, there was no more movement outside.

nHint: You have used a shotgun to kill a zombie dog*3. You have gained 15 survival points. Your gun mastery experience 21.

n“Troublesome zombie dogs.”

nAfter confirming that the zombie dogs had died via the game log, Fang Heng muttered and pushed the door open again.

nZombie dogs had the advantage of explosive speed and fast dodging. They were not high-level zombies and their HP was even lower than ordinary zombies.

nTherefore, they would not drop the complete evolution crystals after they died.

nFang Heng ran out of the door again and killed the ordinary zombies that were attracted by the gunshots.

nHe turned back to the dean’s office and began to search wantonly.

nHint: You found a pack of cigarettes*2, premium coffee beans*10, a tattered shirt*1, the dean’s magnetic card*1, milk*2, chocolate*3, first aid spray*1.

nAfter searching the room carefully, Fang Heng did not find any traces of the T-virus serum. Instead, he found some more useful survival materials.

nFor example, first aid spray, an item that could greatly restore health points, was extremely rare.

nCigarettes were also good items that could increase the favorability rating of NPCs in the game.

nHowever, he could not find the T-virus serum.

nStrange, where could it be hidden?

nFang Heng narrowed his eyes and looked around the entire room again.

nHe had searched very carefully before.

nCould it be…

nA picture frame?

nFang Heng’s gaze focused on a photo on the wall.

nIt was often played like this in movies.

nHe remembered that there were similar posts in the forum before. There were hidden safes in some rooms.

nOne of the hiding places was behind the picture frame.

nFang Heng walked to the picture frame where the dean’s photo was hanging and moved the picture frame away.

nSure enough, a metal safe appeared behind the picture frame.

n“This is bad, I don’t know the password.”

nFang Heng tried to hit the safe with the stone hammer.

n“Dong!”

nA muffled sound was heard.

nHint: You have dealt damage to the metal safe 7.

nA long health bar appeared in Fang Heng’s eyes.

nThe safe had a durability of 20,000. Even if he used the shotgun and the zombie clones to scrape the safe, it would take an entire day for him to break it open.

nOnly by finding the password could he quickly open the safe.

n“Come to think again, normal players don’t have shotguns and zombie clones like me. It’s impossible to crack open the safe.”

n“The game doesn’t set certain death quests. There should be a hint.”

nFang Heng calmed down and thought about it. He looked for any books that might be in the room.

nThere weren’t any.

nThen he could only try his luck.

n“12345.”

nError!

n“1024.”

nError!

n“Dark Knights.”

nError!

n“Verone (Dean’s name).”

nError!

n“T-virus.”

nError!

nFang Heng scratched his head.

nWhat could it be? Could it be that the hint wasn’t here?

nMore than ten minutes had passed but Fang Heng still found nothing.

nHe calmed down, walked to the centre of the room and looked around again.

nThat’s right!

nFang Heng thought of something.

nA computer!

nThere was a desktop computer on the dean’s office desk.

nThere might be relevant information about the password in it!

nBut without a power source, the computer could not be turned on at the moment.

nPower source!?

nGenerator set!?

n“God!”

nIt was connected!

nFang Heng narrowed his eyes and rubbed his chin, thinking.

nIt was very likely that this mission required him to turn on the generator before he could turn on the computer.

nThen, he could use the computer to get the password to the safe!

nThen, the next mission should be to find a way to repair the generator and make it generate electricity again!

nAs for why Old Black wanted to destroy the generator set…

nPerhaps he did not want others to complete the Dark Knight’s mission?

nFang Heng felt that he was most likely right.

nHe was about to return to the basement when he saw the game log light up.

nHint: Your survival radio has received an emergency message.

nHuh?

nFang Heng stopped and turned on the survival radio to check.

nHao Zhou: Fang Heng, how are things over there? I’ve found the location of the generator set and also found something.

nHao Zhou also found the problem with the generator?

nHe immediately replied to Hao Zhou.

nFang Heng: “I’ll be right back.”.

nHe rushed back to the generator room on the first floor.

nHao Zhou and the others were studying something in front of the generator set.

n“What did you find?”

n“Fang Heng, you came back just in time. Come and have a look. We found that the generator set is running.”

n“Huh? What did you say?”

nFang Heng was stunned.

nThe generator unit was running?

nHe was just thinking about how to persuade Hao Zhou to try to turn on the generator set.

nNow Hao Zhou told him that the generator set was running?

nThis was completely inconsistent with his previous guess!

nFang Heng was a little confused for a moment.

nHe tried to clear his mind and asked, “You mean the generator set is in good condition? It’s still running? Then why isn’t the building providing power?”

nKun Ta, who was studying the circuit at the back, poked his head out and explained to Fang Heng.

n“I just studied the generator set and found that the generator set here doesn’t provide power to the main building.”

nFang Heng was stunned again and was even more surprised. He asked, “It’s not the main building? Then where is it?”

n“I’m not sure. The circuit operation seems to lead to the bottom.”

n“The bottom?” Hao Zhou also frowned. He picked up the map of the hospital that he had just found and looked at it carefully.

n“There’s only the morgue underground.”

nMorgue?

nThe members of the team all had strange expressions on their faces.

nWhy did a proper apocalypse survival game suddenly become a little scary?

nFang Heng was also puzzled.

nWhat was the rationale behind the hospital’s backup generator set made to ensure the power supply of the morgue in the first place?

nTo prevent zombies?

nBut could ensuring the power supply help to prevent zombies…

nFang Heng raised his head and asked, “Kun Ta, do you have a way to change the circuit, such as providing power from the generator set to the building?”

n“Uh… I can try, but my skill level is too low. It will take at least three hours to do so.”

nAlright!

nIt seemed that the previous guess was probably wrong.

nFang Heng ruled out a wrong answer.
