Chapter 16: Wall Construction, Gun Practice
Number 132423: "So, where did the person who said 10086 wasn't participating in the auction go? I happen to have just killed some zombies here, still steaming. If you want to eat, I'll send you the coordinates..."
Number 51542: "Outrageous, didn't expect 10086 to have so many life supplies... Six hundred portions, I can't even come up with his leftovers, terrifying."
Number 456755: "Who knows where 10086 lives, even if I have to risk my life, I'll go find him. I demand him to take me as his little brother!"
In the chat channel, most of them are discussing Alex's terrifying strength.
Being able to bring out so many essential supplies to participate in the auction, presumably, there are even more in stock.
Christopher looked at the huge amount of extra supplies in his backpack, and for a moment, he burst into crazy laughter.
So many supplies, enough for him to live for a very long time!
He wanted to find a to hide, slowly enjoying so many supplies alone!
In the apocalypse, human nature is the most terrifying.
He had seen people fighting for food and water from other survivors, even at the cost of injuring or killing them.
So, he dared not flaunt so many supplies in front of everyone.
At this moment, Alex was opening his mailbox, receiving a golden-level blueprint sent by the auction house, the bastion wall.
He glanced at the required materials.
Bastion Wall Bastion Wall Blueprint (1/1)
Wood (20/300)
Steel (66/300)
Cement (3/300)
Water (Infinite/300)
These materials can be easily obtained on the trading platform.
Alex immediately went on a spree on the trading platform.
Soon, the materials were gathered, and Alex opened the blueprint for the bastion wall.
[Dear player, would you like to build the bastion wall?]
[Yes/No]
Clicking yes, the bastion wall blueprint in front of Alex disappeared into thin air.
Following that, a loud noise ensued, astonishing Mia on the second floor of the villa.
Outside the villa where Alex and others were, a towering wall suddenly rose, reaching up to the second floor of the villa.
Its thickness was such that even Alex stretching his arms might not be able to touch the edges.
[Golden item: Bastion Wall built!]
Alex looked at the bastion wall that was directly built, very satisfied.
Mia, with an astonished face, walked downstairs and said, "Is this the golden-level blueprint?"
As Alex's teammate, Mia naturally knew Alex's number. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Just now, she was also paying attention to the content of the chat channel and understood the strategic significance of this golden-level blueprint.
This means that their long-term shelter will become an impregnable fortress in the short term!
After building the shelter, Alex decided to go to the gathering of zombies outside to search for supplies, leaving Mia to guard the safe villa.
The reason for taking such a risk is because he feels immense pressure.
Everyone's strength is rapidly increasing, and there will be more advanced supplies appearing in the future.
Only by taking the lead ahead of others can he survive longer in this doomsday.
Of course, there is another reason.
That is, his marksmanship is too poor.
He must quickly improve his marksmanship.
Luckily, he has the P92 pistol now, with a silencer, so there's no need to fear being surrounded by too many zombies.
Leaving Mia at the villa ensures her safety.
Upon returning, he'll gift her some experience.
Although she plays the role of a doctor in the team, her skills cannot be too lacking.
Alex immediately explained the plan to Mia.
Mia obediently nodded.
"Stay safe, come back immediately if things go south! I'll be waiting for you at home, and I'll also practice with the crossbow!"
Taking advantage of the heavy rain, Alex put on the raincoat he finally found.
After bidding farewell to Mia, he hurried to the gathering area of zombies outside. frёeωebɳovel.com
Beforehand, while silently observing players chatting on the chat channel, Alex gathered some intelligence.
In his location, the villa area has a natural barrier of zombie groups in the adjacent blocks, blocking traffic between areas, making it difficult to break through in the short term.
Of course, as the supplies gradually become abundant, the barriers between regions will not be a major obstacle.
Alex is heading towards that isolated area.
After walking for who knows how long, when the rain stopped, he saw the block.
Alex quietly climbed up a residential building, then used his pistol to deal with two zombies and occupied a residential room.
This residential room wasn't high, and from the second floor, he could overlook the scattered zombies on the street.
The stench of rotting flesh downstairs made Alex feel nauseous.
He felt more comfortable after putting on the mask.
But the zombies' mournful cries were incessant.
Alex still raised his pistol, intending to finish the fight quickly.
The zombies below burned, and Alex kept reloading on the small building.
This was a harvest.
Although his marksmanship wasn't great at the beginning.
But there were just so many zombies down there.
Even if he missed the one he aimed at, he could still hit another one if lucky.
This was a good opportunity to practice his marksmanship.
Alex's experience bar was also rapidly rising.
[Gained 1 experience]
[Gained 1 experience]
[Gained 1 experience]
[...]
Congratulations, player, on leveling up, please keep up the good work!
The flames subsided, and smoke faintly wafted from the gun barrel.
Alex opened his personal information.
Level: 4 (0/400)
Strength: 20 Agility: 9 Stamina: Normal
Looking at the scorched ground below the small building, Alex exhaled heavily.
Then, he took out a ladder and climbed down from the small building, heading towards another group of zombies.
Alex had noticed that the area around the abandoned supermarket and the villa district was relatively safe.
The fewer supplies there were, the fewer zombies there would be.
However, after crossing a block, there should be a gathering point for zombies.
Moving along the hillside opposite the villa district, Alex killed many lone zombies and small groups.
In the meantime, he also found several supply boxes.
However, they were all bronze-level.
At this point, his experience bar was already more than half full.
Finding a safe small house, Alex climbed onto the roof, took out his lunch, and began to replenish.
After finishing lunch, he continued towards the hillside.
It wasn't until sunset that Alex returned to the villa district.
After leveling up twice in a row, he found that his stamina and endurance were completely different from before.
Maintaining a steady pace all the way, he could already see the edge of the villa district, feeling no fatigue or breathlessness whatsoever.
