Chapter 15: Cleaning the Prison

Fang Heng picked up a completed crossbow and examined it in his hand.

Item: Crossbow.

Type: Weapon.

Quality: Common.

Durability: 50/50.

Damage: 9-11.

Description: After loading, it can fire a bolt forward. It has a chance to cause bleeding damage. Using special bolts can provide additional damage.

"Good stuff. I'll leave one with you for self-defense."

Fang Heng casually tossed a crossbow and some bolts to Liao Bufan, then packed the remaining five into his backpack.

As Liao Bufan hammered nails into the window with a small stone hammer, he said, "Boss, just this one crossbow isn't enough. If enemies really show up, my fragile frame won't be able to take it."

Fang Heng glanced at him and said, "We're having a better meal tonight."

"No problem! Leave it to me!!"

...

Leaving the cabin, Fang Heng led his fifteen zombie clones in a grand procession toward the prison.

Any zombie that didn't have the sense to stay out of his way on the road was killed on the spot.

If ordinary players saw a dozen zombies gathered together, they would definitely stay far away, not daring to provoke them.

On the way, Fang Heng took the time to check the attributes of his zombie clones.

Creature: Zombie (Clone).

Strength: 2.6.

Intelligence: 2.5.

【Basic Skills】

Skill: Basic Cooking (LV: 1)

【Set Skill】

Skill: Lumberjack (LV: MAX)

Fang Heng closed the attribute panel.

The biggest advantage of the zombie clones was their health. If it were a one-on-one stand-up fight, Fang Heng admitted he really wouldn't be a match for a zombie clone.

Fang Heng didn't delay on the road, heading straight for the prison, but the forest terrain made travel difficult, taking him over an hour.

From a distance, Fang Heng sized up the prison at the bottom of the hillside.

The prison backed against a mountain, and a small path passed by the front gate.

In his two days of gaming, this was the first time Fang Heng had seen a road.

Having a road meant that he might already be on the outskirts of the forest.

Following the road might allow him to leave the forest area soon.

Fang Heng withdrew his gaze and continued to look inside the prison.

Just as Liao Bufan had said, the prison occupied a massive area. In addition to a vast plaza, there were three large buildings inside.

Thick walls, huge iron gates, three layers of barbed wire inside and out, towering watchtowers, and searchlights.

The defensive measures of the prison itself made Fang Heng’s eyes burn with desire.

"All good stuff. There’s no better place to establish a player shelter!"

Fang Heng continued to observe the plaza.

A large number of zombies wandered the main plaza; some wore prison uniforms, while others wore thick riot gear.

A small hole had been breached in the large iron gate inside the prison.

The outer three layers of barbed wire had also been breached by zombies, with only the last layer left hanging precariously.

Where could he enter the prison plaza?

Fang Heng searched the surroundings with his eyes.

He didn't dare get too close; the scent of a living person would affect the zombies. If a swarm of zombies were attracted, even with his group of zombie clones, he wouldn't be able to handle it.

Found it!

Right next to the main gate, he only needed to pass through the guard shack at the entrance of the outer iron gate. The zombie clones could easily climb through the windows of the guard shack to enter the prison interior.

Fang Heng quickly finalized his battle plan.

He stood on a small rise, meticulously controlling the zombie clones to enter the guard shack.

After killing the two zombies inside the guard shack, the fifteen zombie clones climbed through the windows one by one to reach the plaza inside the prison.

Done! Invasion successfully achieved!

Fang Heng clapped his hands, sat down on the grass, and ordered the zombies to clear out the zombies in the prison at will.

Now he could just sit back and idle.

【Hint: Your zombie clone attacked a normal zombie. Attack hit. Your Basic Training - Strength experience +1】.

【Hint: Your zombie clone attacked a normal zombie. Attack hit. Your Basic Training - Strength experience +1】.

【Hint: Your zombie clone attacked a normal zombie. Attack hit. Your Basic Training - Strength experience +1】.

【Hint: Your zombie clone killed a normal zombie. You gained 2 Survival Points】.

【Hint: Your zombie clone...】

Just as he had guessed, the zombie clones could increase his Strength training skill experience through attacks.

He estimated that the skill experience would be maxed out soon.

On the grass, Fang Heng flipped through the game logs from time to time, feeling a bit bored.

It wasn't that he wanted to be lazy; as a human, he really couldn't help much in this situation.

He would just silently wait for the zombies to grind experience.

Otherwise, should he just head back to the cabin?

After thinking about it, Fang Heng decided to watch a bit longer. He pulled the survival radio out of his backpack to read the chat from the guys on the channel to pass the time.

Huh? A private message? From over half an hour ago?

Fang Heng opened the private message to check.

The sender was the player who had sold him the location of the Doomsday Merchant camp yesterday, named Lu Yu.

Lu Yu: "Big shot, an SSS-level mission at the Doomsday Merchant's place was completed by someone. Was it you?"

"Yes, what's up?"

...

"Holy sh*t!! It really was him! It really was him."

Upon receiving Fang Heng's confirmation, Lu Yu exclaimed.

This morning, when he and his companion went to the Doomsday Merchant camp to pick up missions, they discovered that the SSS-level mission had vanished into thin air!

Almost subconsciously, Lu Yu thought of the big shot who had spent 20 points to ask him about the Doomsday Merchant's location yesterday.

Could he have completed the mission?

Having received Fang Heng's accurate reply, the young man accompanying Lu Yu, Zhou Yi, also had his mouth agape, wearing an expression of disbelief.

"Impossible! How could this mission be completed?! He must have used some trick, right? Right!"

Lu Yu looked at Zhou Yi and shook his head, indicating he didn't know.

He sent another message to Fang Heng.

"How did you do it?"

A moment later, Fang Heng's response came back.

"100 Survival Points."

"Damn!"

Lu Yu cursed under his breath.

"It must be a super overpowered combat-type talent attribute; otherwise, it would be impossible to clear out the entire camp!"

Zhou Yi lowered his head, analyzing, then suddenly looked up sharply, staring at Lu Yu.

"Let's go, let's log off. Such a strong big shot definitely won't be obscure in the game. Let's look up his identity and find a way to recruit him into our company."

"You already called him a big shot; he probably wouldn't want to come to your crappy little company, right?"

"Try it first. Even if we can't recruit him, it wouldn't be a loss to cooperate with him."

Zhou Yi wasn't even going to do the mission he had originally planned for today. He turned to Lu Yu, "I'm logging off to check his information. You help me guard the makeshift bed."

"Go quickly and come back quickly."
