Song Jian left the bedroom and came to the villa’s living room, where he immediately saw Wang Qi lying on the sofa;

As Song Jian came downstairs, Wang Qi looked at him with a face of despair;

“Little Cheap Brother, I’m finished!”

“Is your fracture not yet healed?” Song Jian glanced at Wang Qi lying on the living room sofa and asked.

Wang Qi now looked like a patient in a hospital, wearing a patient’s gown, with both legs in plaster, his eyes gazing at the ceiling, sighing heavily.

“Who knows, leaving the game didn’t heal my injuries and I had to call for emergency medical help. 1 was busy at the hospital all day but was dragged back into the game at night…” Wang Qi said with a tearless and pitiful expression: “I can’t move my legs at all now. Before, 1 could leave the game by lying down for twelve hours, but now there’s a main quest and I’m…”

“It’s a pity that you have to complete the quest alone, otherwise, you could treat this place as your safe house.” Song Jian said.

“Little Cheap Brother, can you build this place later? I feel that I heal much faster in the game. Wait until I’m healed, and then you can build the base, okay?” Wang Qi asked.

“How long will it take for complete healing?”

“In the game, it should take more than ten hours…” Wang Qi said.

He could feel his injuries healing at several times the speed in the game. This made Wang Qi somewhat regretful for leaving the game too early. Otherwise, Song Jian would have already helped him reset his bones, and he just needed to spend some more time in the game for his rib and leg bones to fully heal.

“Alright, I’ll go out and take a look first to see where 1 can gather materials to build a safe house. You just rest here.” Song Jian said: “Oh, have you seen Li Ke’er?”

“She entered the game earlier than me. I only saw this.” As Wang Qi spoke, he pulled out a note and handed it to Song Jian.

Song Jian took a look, and it was a message left by Li Ke’er;

“Little Cheap Brother, I’ll go find a good place for a base first. After 1 finish building the base, I’ll come back to see you. Li Ke’er.”

“Hiss, this girl’s Chinese isn’t good, making a typo. My ‘Jian* is for health, not the ‘Jian’ for being cheap!” Song Jian said, rubbing his chin.

“Is it health ‘Jian’?” Wang Qi hesitated, then asked. He immediately felt a cold killing intent rush toward him.

“She must have learned her Chinese from the P.E. teacher. Even this can be mistaken, right, Little Healthy Brother!” Wang Qi immediately tried to please Song Jian.

“Don’t call me Little Healthy Brother from now on. It sounds weird. Call me Brother Song.” Song Jian said.

“Alright, Little Cheap… Brother Song!”

After leaving the villa through the skylight, it was daytime, and there were no mutant zombies to be seen on the surrounding streets. However, Song Jian knew that these monsters were now hiding in dark corners and rooms in the area.

With a double-barreled shotgun slung across his back and a fully-loaded handgun tucked into his waist, Song Jian held the Tiger Fang Dagger in his hand and began to patrol the streets. On one hand, he needed to find materials to build the safe house while on the other hand, he needed to hunt down the surrounding monsters to increase his level.

As Song Jian rounded a street corner, he suddenly heard a strange noise.

“Clang, clang-”

Following the sound, Song Jian entered a dark and narrow alley filled with garbage, with stains on the walls and a foul smell in the air;

In the alley, there was a limping mutant zombie, pacing back and forth;

This limping mutant zombie was tall and burly, wearing only a piece of animal skin on his upper body and leather pants on his lower body. His exposed bluish-grey skin showed no signs of decay;

He dragged a huge hammer in his right hand, striking the ground constantly as he limped along, making the strange noises earlier;

“LV3 Hammer Zombie (Weakened during daytime), Vitality: 190/380, Extremely Strong;”

This was a newly encountered monster, even in its weakened daytime state, it had nearly two hundred vitality points. Moreover, it had an “Extremely Strong” attribute, making it much more formidable than ordinary level 3 monsters.

Looking at the dagger in his hand, Song Jian still lacked the courage to engage in close combat with such a creature. After much thought, he finally used the skill “Earth Teeth Assault” against the monster at the entrance of the alley.

Whoosh-

A fang-shaped milky-white air mass shot towards the Hammer Zombie’s back with a sharp breaking sound;

Thump-

With a muffled bang, the milky-white air mass collided with the Hammer Zombie’s body, making it take a step back. A deep wound appeared on its right thigh, and a 38-point damage number floated above its head;

Song Jian was shocked to find that the zombie’s defense was much higher than the mutated canine beast’s. With a cooldown of ten seconds, “Earth Teeth Assault” couldn’t be used continuously, so Song Jian pulled out his handgun and aimed at the Hammer Zombie’s head, starting to shoot;

Bang bang bang-

After firing more than ten bullets, only two hit the Hammer Zombie’s head, and the rest went into its body. Although hitting the head didn’t cause a critical and extra damage, it seemed like the head wasn’t the Hammer Zombie’s weak point.

The entire barrage caused about twenty points of damage, which was lower than a single “Earth Teeth Assault.”

The Hammer Zombie moved sluggishly, limping as it walked. After taking all the attacks, it was still about five or six meters away from Song Jian.

Song Jian put the pistol back into his inventory and grabbed the double-barreled shotgun. He pulled the trigger twice, aiming at the Hammer Zombie’s chest.

Boom boom-

The shotgun bullets ripped a large hole in the zombie’s animal skin, burrowing into its chest. The immense force of the shotgun made the Hammer Zombie take two steps back. The attack inflicted more damage than a handgun, reducing the Hammer Zombie’s vital energy to below one hundred.

Roar-

The Hammer Zombie steadied itself and roared at Song Jian, its originally blood-red eyes suddenly turning purple.

Song Jian immediately felt a sense of unease, as if a huge threat was rushing towards him. Without thinking too much, he lunged forward;

Whoosh-

A fierce wind blew overhead, as something seemed to pass over his head;

Looking up, he saw that the hammer in the Hammer Zombie’s hand had disappeared. Then, there came a “rumble” behind Song Jian.

Looking back, he saw a nearly two meters wide hole smashed into the wall of a store across the street from the alley, with bricks and debris still falling.

“This power is simply terrifying!” Song Jian’s heart skipped a beat, and fear crept onto his face. He hadn’t expected the Hammer Zombie to have such a horrifying long-range attack;

If Song Jian had been hit directly by this attack, there would be a high chance of being instantly killed or severely injured. In the end, he would still die in the game;
