Song Jian opened the battle playback information;

“You used a handgun to attack, hitting the weak point (head) of the mutant zombie, and inflicted 48 points of physical damage (critical hit) on the target!”

“Your puppet zombie used the skill ‘bite’, causing 5 points of damage, and the mutant zombie’s vitality was presently zero!”

“The mutant zombie is dead!”

System: You killed the mutant zombie and earned 110 experience points.

System: You used a handgun to effectively damage the mutant zombie. Your skill proficiency in ‘[Gunpowder Weapon (Handgun) (Basic)]’ has slightly improved;

“Hiss, indeed, zombies’ weakness is their heads, how did I not realize this earlier? I’ve wasted quite a lot of bullets!” Song Jian was regretful at that moment. If he had known earlier, he would only need two shots at most to kill a zombie. He had already wasted at least a dozen bullets.

Despite receiving a hundred “universal handgun bullets” from opening the newbie gift pack, if he didn’t conserve his use, he would eventually run out of bullets. This was a big city, and the number of zombies was probably in the millions.

After killing this mutated zombie, there was no loot drop. Song Jian curled his lips in disappointment and walked towards the half-opened security door, starting to search the room.

…

After spending more than an hour, Song Jian searched all the accessible rooms in the entire building, but the loot he found was not much. It consisted only of some food and drink that could help to reduce hunger and thirst, but he found no equipment at all.

However, Song Jian did encounter seven or eight mutant zombies during this time. Each time, he aimed for the zombies’ heads and shot, causing a critical hit. He then commanded his puppet zombie to rush forward and fight the target, which allowed him to quickly kill the zombies – it was both safe and efficient.

After killing seven or eight zombies, his puppet zombies finally succumbed, turning into a pile of black ashes.

The puppet zombies’ vitality could not recover; once it was gone, it was gone. After withstanding attacks from seven or eight creatures of a similar level, its vitality was finally depleted.

Song Jian’s level increased by one. As expected, he only gained one skill point. Song Jian didn’t hesitate at all and added this skill point to ‘[Gunpowder Weapon (Handgun) (Basic)]’, raising this skill to Level 3. The power of short firearms increased by another 5%, and he gained an additional “Accuracy +2″ attribute;

As for the initial skill ‘Thick-skinned,” Song Jian shrugged.

There’s a shopping street right outside the building where Song Jian was. Although there were a few residential buildings nearby, he spent over an hour without much to show for it, and thus, he was not interested in them.

Upon leaving the building, he saw rows of shops across the street. Right in front, was a Zhou’s Gold Shop. Looking through the shop’s floor-to-ceiling windows, a thick layer of dust covered the counters. Gold jewelry was discarded inside like trash, surprisingly untouched.

Song Jian looked around and saw the wide street was deserted. Large blocks of cement on the road had cracked, and weeds waist-high grew out of the crevices, making it look very desolate-

“If only I could take the things in that gold shop out of the game!” With this in mind, Song Jian couldn’t help but walk towards the jewelry shop.

Just then, there was a sudden noise in the distance. He turned to look, and his entire body instantly tensed. He widened his eyes in disbelief.

A man in his pajamas was running down the street, littered with scattered trash bags. He was panting as he ran, tightly clutching a baseball bat that emitted a faint blue glow. Chasing behind him were a group of raggedly dressed, stench-emitting mutant zombies. They were staggering along unsteadily but persistently, maintaining a distance of five or six meters from him.

The zombies were slow but relentless in their chase. There were probably around fifty to sixty zombies in the group, which were growling and continuously pouring out from the surrounding lanes and streets. It seemed as if they were trying to encircle the human from all directions.

Song Jian swiftly moved aside, hiding behind the wall. Going up against so many mutant zombies would be suicide.

“I think I’ve seen that guy before!” Song Jian thought to himself. He took a deep look and recognized the man. He had seen him a few times before; he was a security guard in the building next to the cosmetics company where Song Jian worked. He had seen him assist with parking cars. However, he couldn’t recall his name.

“Don’t follow me, don’t follow me…”

The man’s face was filled with terror. Looking back, a mutant zombie appearing from a narrow alley was only two or three meters away from him.

“Die, Die!”

Seeing the zombie rushing over, the man suddenly mustered up the courage. He swung the baseball bat in his hand and fiercely hit the zombie closest to him in the head. The hit was so hard that it instantly killed the zombie. With a “crack” sound, the zombie’s head broke apart like a watermelon, and the headless body staggered for a moment before falling to the ground and turning into black ash.

However, this moment of hesitation was enough for five or six zombies to leap at him. The man let out bone-chilling screams as the subsequent wave of zombies descended and began to rip into his body.

The “crunch crunch” sound was incessant. Song Jian felt a chill down his spine. His palms were sweating, and his body was slightly shaking.

Not long after, the man’s screams gradually faded, only leaving the gnawing and growling of the zombies.

Soon, the group of zombies lost interest in the man’s corpse. The body, now filled with the zombie virus, soon moved. He pushed away the zombies on his body, slowly stood up with a blank look, and joined the group of zombies. He had become one of the mutant zombies.

“So becoming a zombie after getting bitten by one is true!” Song Jian thought to himself.

A group of zombies stood dumbly on the street. Once they lost their target, they quickly dispersed.

It was already evening. The sun was not so harsh, but the zombies still didn’t like the daytime environment. They hid in alley corners and other dark places.

The man who was bitten to death was still circling the baseball bat he had dropped.

Looking at the faint blue glow radiating from the baseball bat, Song Jian’s eyes lit up.

It was a blue-grade weapon, even more powerful than his gun. It can kill a zombie in one hit. Song Jian was tempted.

“Eh, what’s that?” Song Jian shifted his gaze and quickly discovered another item. Not far from the baseball bat, there was a pile of black ashes. Next to the ashes, there was an item glowing green. Though too far to see clearly, the green glow was rather eye-catching.

“Another green-grade item, what luck!” Song Jian thought to himself. This green-glowing item was dropped by the zombie the man had killed instantly. All of it now benefits Song Jian.

The zombie that the man had turned into was only about a dozen meters away from Song Jian, within the firing range of his pistol. He lifted his gun and took aim. f reenovelkiss.com

Bang~

There was a crisp sound, and a thick green liquid shot from the zombie’s head. The head tilted back abruptly, even its movement paused for a moment. Before it could react, Song Jian pulled the trigger again.

The bullet penetrated the zombie’s skull, and another stream of green liquid shot out. The zombie’s body suddenly ignited, quickly turning into a pile of black ash.
