nLiving zombies do have an advantage over humans. From the perspective of the ecological chain, humans are more like food for zombies and potential counterparts.
n“In my simulations, if nothing goes wrong, humans will never be able to defeat zombies. In short, our situation is really difficult.”
nMeng Jie’s remarks evoked a wave of sighs among the high-ranking members gathered in the Guangping Street gathering place.
nAfter a long silence, everyone looked up at Lu Ming on the second floor, through the window.
nIf Good Hope Village was an isolated island, then Lu Ming was the lighthouse on this isolated island.
nWith him around, everyone would not lose their direction and would not feel despair!
nFacing everyone’s gazes, Lu Ming said softly, “Stay steady and develop!”
nThis had always been Lu Ming’s survival guideline, and it had never changed.
nUpon hearing this, everyone nodded in unison.
nWang Xiong: “I think so too. The defense system of the gathering place hasn’t been completed yet, so it’s not wise to go out and take risks.”
nZhang Chengcheng: “And Brother Lu will become stronger and stronger. Although zombies will evolve, I still feel that time is on our side.” Chengcheng had always had full confidence in Lu Ming.
nZhang Lixin said, “There’s enough food for the time being. Once we scavenge the supplies in Good Hope Village, it’ll be enough for us for half a year or a year.”
nMeng Jie: “My research is also progressing very smoothly. I think if I can find a way to turn ordinary people into Awakened individuals, once the number of Awakened individuals increases, the situation will change significantly.”
nLi Zitong:”…” Sorry, I feel like an outsider.
nWith the regulations set, everyone performed their respective duties.
nFor Lu Ming, the days had once again entered the rhythm that he was most familiar with.
nExercise, farming attributes.
nThere was nothing more important than this.
nThe 33rd day of the Apocalypse Calendar, Thursday.
nExercise in the morning and crossbow arrow shooting in the afternoon.
nNothing else happened.
nToday’s attribute record:
nName: Lu Ming
nStrength: 61.4
nPhysique: 62.1
nAgility: 54-8
nFitness Lv9 (830
/900).
nHand-to-hand combat Lvi9 (1025
/1900)
nCrossbow Shooting Lv5 (105
/500)
nThe 34th day of the Apocalypse Calendar, Friday.
nNothing happened.
nToday, my hand-to-hand combat skill leveled up to Level 20.1 realized that this skill has reached a plateau. It’s difficult to obtain proficiency even when practicing with Wang Xiong.
nWang Xiong told me that with the same physical fitness, my combat skills are no longer inferior to his. There’s nothing more he can teach me.
nHe also said that he’s never seen anyone as gifted in mixed martial arts as I am, in his entire life.
nToday’s attribute record: (omitted)…
nThe 35th day of the Apocalypse Calendar, Saturday.
nNothing happened today, but the gathering place is becoming more and more presentable.
nWang Xiong and the others have built a wall, and the original zombie attack array was removed. They also erected an observation tower next to my house, which is over 20 meters tall!
nAccording to Zhang Lixin, this observation tower can allow me to rain fatal blows upon the zombies from an elevated position. I tried it, the observation tower is not bad, but the height worries me. Moreover, it’s poorly constructed and it doesn’t look very sturdy.
nI mentioned this to Zhang Lixin, and he said that they would reinforce it immediately. As for the height issue, he reminded me that I would be fine if I fell from this height. I don’t believe it.
nWang Xiong immediately went up and performed a trapeze… He was fine.
nI also gave it a try… It proved that my worries were unnecessary. This height won’t harm me if I fall. So I think we can increase the height of the observation tower. Being higher up allows for better visibility and longer-range attacks. There is no problem.
nToday’s attribute record: (omitted)…
nThe 36th day of the Apocalypse Calendar, Sunday.
nToday, Li Zitong was promoted to a Level 2 Awakened. His awakened superpower is called Earth Manipulation.
nTo put it bluntly, he can control sand, stones, and soil. It’s beneficial to infrastructure and farming. It’s not particularly effective in combat.
nHowever, unlike the last time, Li Zitong’s advancement today attracted a zombie wave. Eight hunters led the team, and there were more than 30 giant zombies… The safety of the gathering place underwent a test, and overall, it seemed to hold up well.
nOh, by the way, the observation tower is really useful, incredibly useful! We need to increase its height, up to 40 meters!
nToday’s attribute record: (omitted)…
nThe 30th day of the Apocalypse Calendar, Monday.
n“Omitted.
nThe 38th day of the Apocalypse Calendar, Tuesday.
nThe 39th day of the Apocalypse Calendar, Wednesday.
nThe 40th day of the Apocalypse Calendar…
nThe 41st day…
nThe 42nd day…
nThe 43rd day…
nToday, my agility attribute has officially broken through the 100 mark
nI’ve become stronger.
nHowever, as I became stronger, my appetite has become increasingly astonishing. I ate more than everyone else in the gathering place combined! Moreover, there’s a shortage of protein.
nAt the same time, Zhang Chengcheng’s gravity superpower can no longer keep up with my training intensity.
nZhang Chengcheng wants to advance to Level 3 Awakened. There are enough zombie crystals, but the problem is the zombie tide triggered by the advancement.
nThis made me conflicted for a while and I felt that it’s necessary to give it a try.
nThe 44th day of the Apocalypse Calendar, Monday.

nAfter waking up from the afternoon nap, Lu Ming checked his attributes panel and realized that his attributes had transformed into their current state.
nHis body contained immense strength.
nEven Lu Ming’s physique had undergone significant changes.
nHis height had increased from 1.8 meters to 1.9 meters. When he weighed himself yesterday, his weight had already reached 300 catties!
nOverall, his figure didn’t look bulky, but he was not lean like Wang Xiong.
nHe appeared somewhat slimmer than a bodybuilder, but there were limits to his slenderness.
nWith a light fist clench, power surged from his fingertips.
nJust as the doorbell rang, Lu Ming went downstairs and turned on the electronic screen, only to see Zhang Chengcheng standing there.
nBrother Lu, I’m preparing to advance.
nYes, I’m coming.”
nLu Ming unlocked the door and walked out.
nToday was the day Zhang Chengcheng advanced.
nLu Ming was very concerned about this.
nThis was because the Gravity Manipulation was very important to Lu Ming. With his current physical strength, fitness equipment and the like were no longer effective. He could only rely on the Gravity Manipulation.
nAt the entrance of Lu Ming’s house, Zhang Chengcheng was already holding 10 second-tier Corpse Crystals, fully prepared for the promotion.s
nUnder Lu Ming’s encouraging gaze, Zhang Chengcheng took a deep breath, preparing to swallow the Corpse Crystal.
nUnexpectedly, they heard the sound of bells coming from the watchtower.
nAfter more than 10 days of development, the gathering place had mostly been built, and the watchtower was deemed necessary.
nThe ringing of the bells at this moment indicated that something was happening, At this moment, the bell rang, which meant that something had happened. But it rang only once, suggesting that it was not a big problem.
nZhang Chengcheng temporarily halted her actions and looked at Lu Ming.
nHe realized that Lu Ming had agilely climbed up his observation tower and was looking into the distance from a high vantage point.
nIn the distance, at the entrance of Good Hope Village.
nA burly middle-aged man carrying a long spear was walking through the streets toward Good Hope Village.
nStrangely, the zombies along the way showed no reaction to the man at all, as if the man was one of them..
n
