"Well...but it can be used to make the next level of food."

"Let's not waste it on this stuff until we have water freedom."

“Then, I already have a plan for what I want to do today.”

Yang Ming put on his clothes first, stood in front of the window in the small space with a wooden bow in his hand, observing the situation outside.

Chapter 29 A More Efficient Way to Clear the Level

Compared to the empty streets yesterday, there are zombies wandering around today, but not many.

——I’m afraid the zombies in the outside world have some kind of refresh mechanism...

There are already many irrationalities in this world, such as the excessive number of zombies in residential areas and the numerical nature of all items. Considering these factors, it would be fine for zombies to have some kind of refresh mechanism.

For example, they will not refresh immediately around the player, but will be deployed one by one in the blind spots of vision.

Yang Ming bit off the charred meat, thinking that it would be a waste not to eat what he had found, and then handed the cornbread on the campfire to Hong Xia.

"Yesterday I studied two [Forging Guides] and I unlocked something called a [Dew Collector]. I'm not sure how effective it is, but it can at least alleviate our current water shortage."

“And the inferior material is [waste polymer].”

Yang Ming looked at his crafting skill panel. If he remembered correctly, scrap polymers were not that easy to come by.

Compared to basic materials such as scraps of cloth and wood that can be found everywhere, this thing usually comes from rubber or plastic products in the scene.

For example, trash cans and discarded tires can be knocked down by hitting them with a stone axe.

"Today we're going to search a house to make sure we find water in the kitchen, then we're going to find all the rubber and plastic items and knock them off to get the waste polymers, and..."

"See if you can find a bookstore here."

He has increasingly understood the importance of books. If the level of his crafting skills cannot be improved, then he will only be able to use stone hammers and iron barrel guns as weapons for the next thirty days.

Yang Ming looked at the weapon levels on the production page. The upper limit of the sledgehammer's [Hammer Travels the World] was 75 books, divided into stone, iron, and steel, while the upper limit of the shotgun's [Shotgun Weekly] was 100 books, divided into four levels.

The types, levels, and qualities of weapons in this game vary greatly, which means that higher-level weapons mean easier combat.

At the same time, since there are high-level weapons in this game, it also means that... the enemies are definitely not just a single type of zombies.

He must improve his strength as soon as possible.

"In fact, you don't have to look for moisture in residential houses. I feel that residential kitchens are more for food. If you can find a place like a bar or a drink shop..."

"Yes! I almost forgot about that."

Yang Ming slapped his head and realized that this was indeed the case.

There are better ways to get water.

"Come on, we must explore this town more today."

"I feel like we've only seen the tip of the iceberg here."

Based on the experience of breaking through two level 2 buildings in a row yesterday, Yang Ming confirmed one thing. With their current combat power, they could fight even level 3 buildings, but it was obviously too risky. Then, thinking about it the other way around, does it mean that those level 1 buildings are already very easy for them?

To verify this idea, he took Hongxia along the street and knocked down any trash cans they saw along the way, including some scattered tires.

Since there are such materials and requirements in the game, there must be a stable way to obtain them.

Yang Ming set his sights on a building that resembled a hotel structure.

The GreasySpoon (Green Restaurant) – Level 1

"Walk."

Hong Xia was still guarding the door. She held a wooden thorn trap in her hand, and would place it at the door the moment Yang Ming retreated if anything went wrong.

But then she saw some experience pop up, and in less than ten minutes Yang Ming came out holding a sledgehammer.

"Go in and search~"

"So fast!"

Hongxia looked at his proud look and responded with an expression of admiration.

It’s hard to find a girlfriend who is willing to cooperate with you in your antics even with a lantern!

"There are only four of them. It's too easy."

If the number is less than five, and they don't have special body shapes like Helmet Brother and Fatty, then even in a closed environment, Yang Ming can be said to have crushed them.

As usual, Hong Xia touched the food pile and the beverage cabinet, and he took out a stone axe to knock on the curtains and trash can.

As you enter the door, you can see the cashier counter, and then two rows of tables for people to eat. Behind the window of the cashier counter is the kitchen, as well as the loot belonging to the first-level building, the wooden box.

"Pistol parts, shotgun parts, iron arrows!"

“Wow, there’s water here.”

“It’s available here too!”

"Yang Ming, four bottles of water will be here soon."

The young man nodded, quickly searched the small building, and returned to the street with Hong Xia.

There were mailboxes at the doors of those houses. Yang Ming had seen this thing at Jennifer's House, but he only found [paper].

But Hongxia can search out the books from it.

In this way, I brought Hongxia from the edge of the town to the center of the town. Hongxia had already touched more than ten mailboxes. From her expression, I could tell that she had touched a lot of good things.

Until we came to the door of another building.

【thecrowresidence Crowe Apartment——Level 1】

"See~ My method is quite effective against low-level buildings."

"That's because Yang Ming hasn't suffered any loss yet. If you get beaten up by that helmeted guy and the fat guy together in there, you'll be obedient."

"...If a first-level building is this strong, then the game designer might have some problems with his brain."

"Anyway, just be careful."

"Got it, Anxin, you'll still meet me here."

Unknowingly, Yang Ming had unlocked the fastest way to pass these low-level buildings.

Holding a sledgehammer, he quickly walked through all the rooms and floors of the building. If the enemies could be dealt with, he would do so on the spot. If there were too many of them, he would lead them to the door, where they would be exposed to wooden spike traps or more open environments to kill them.

The front and back doors of this apartment are both sealed, which means the real route is actually...

Yang Ming looked at the sealed front door and the high slope built with earth.

The slope is high enough to climb up to the eaves, and there is a hole on the second floor above the eaves.

The normal route of this building is from the second floor down...

But this is not efficient. If a group of zombies on the second floor rush out immediately, they will fall down the slope and scatter onto the street. If there are a large number of zombies when you rush to the first floor, you will be blocked by the sealed front and back doors and be forced to fight with your back against the wall.

"Hmph... I choose the one with the fastest efficiency!"

The stone hammer hit the front door that was fixed with wooden boards with such swift force that a big hole was created in the wooden door with just this one blow.

The second time, the wooden door collapsed happily.

"Then I'll go~"

"Be careful."

Ijichi Hongxia also knew that she couldn't persuade him. Although from a conservative point of view, it would be best for two people to advance slowly in the building, as long as he could ensure safety, it would indeed save time to lure them all out at once and then search peacefully.

Chapter 30 Girl's Knee Pillow Service

"Go, go, go!"

The man wearing grass armor and holding a sledgehammer broke into the house violently like a cruel killer in the movie. As soon as he entered the house, he found the person lying on the ground. Without saying a word, he hit him with the hammer, and blood splattered everywhere.

——The living room is right at the entrance, and there is a room on the right.

He glanced inside, but there was a blind spot, and in front of him was a guy who was staggering to his feet.

Then let’s solve the problem in front of us first!

The sledgehammer swept across, and the powerful attack blasted the zombie away. Its arm was hammered away, and its body roared and hit the wall behind it.

Yang Ming rushed forward with the giant hammer in his hand, using the huge object as a stabbing spear and hitting its head at a terrifying speed.

In an instant, the head was squeezed into a bloody mist.

Somehow, he felt quite good.

The blood in his body was boiling, as if adrenaline was rushing through him. The sledgehammer in his hand was almost weightless, and he could use it however he wanted.

His excited state allowed him to fully release his inherent aggressiveness in the battle, and those ordinary zombies could not even get close to him.

Where does this endless energy come from?

From the last small and inconspicuous effect of [Skull Crusher] - Level 3.

Reduced the stamina consumption of the hammer.

He was already in a perfect state of being well-fed and well-watered, and the increase in strength and skills made him almost like a warrior on the ancient battlefield, who could kill the invading enemies with just a wave of his weapon.

"roar--!

Three rotten zombies rushed out of the kitchen, their blackened nails scraping against the tiles with a harsh sound. Yang Ming grinned, gripped the end of the hammer handle with both hands, and swung it upwards diagonally like playing golf.

“Crack—!”

The first head was hit accurately by the hammer, and the cervical vertebrae made a crisp breaking sound. With the reaction force, Yang Ming turned around and swung the hammer. The stone hammer drew a perfect arc in the air. The second zombie's chest cavity instantly caved in into a bowl shape, and the broken ribs pierced through the back and stabbed into the refrigerator.

Just as the third zombie was about to open its mouth, Yang Ming had already leaped into the air, using the dining table as a kick. Sunlight filtered through the broken window, casting a slender silhouette behind him. The grass and wood armor rustled as the stone hammer crashed down with tremendous force.

"puff!"

The rotting body was bent in half, its entrails spread out in a dark red fan-shaped pattern on the floor. Yang Ming turned around, stepping on the sticky blood, and found Hong Xia leaning halfway through the door, holding a half-drawn wooden bow in her hand.

"That's too exaggerated..."

She muttered as she looked at the hammer head that was half an inch embedded in the floor tiles.

Yang Ming shook the intestines hanging on the hammer handle, then kicked open the bedroom door. The door panel whistled and slapped the white-haired zombie away, and the old woman's dentures drew a parabola in the air.

"Behind!

Hongxia suddenly shouted.

The zombie that jumped out of the closet was about to grab Yang Ming's calf when he turned the hammer handle upside down and stabbed it into the top of his head. The stone handle easily penetrated the skull. The zombie remained frozen in place in a biting posture, and dark yellow brain matter dripped along the lines of the hammer handle.

"Eh...that's disgusting."

Yang Ming kicked the body aside and caught a glimpse of the family photo on the bedside table. In the frame, a couple was smiling while holding their child. Now the whole family was lying neatly on the floor - if it could still be called "lying".

"If you're in danger, get out quickly! I'll be there with my pistol to help you out."

Hong Xia's voice came from the entrance.

"Mmmmm~"

The young man responded with a smile. This kind of tacit understanding and care between husband and wife, which is like working together to achieve greater success, filled his body with strength again.

The muscles in his arms were covered with hideous, tangled purple veins due to the exertion. Yang Ming did not notice that while he maintained this over-excited state, his body was also responding to him with a certain attitude.

The first floor has been cleaned up, and the second floor is still to be cleaned up...

Without even thinking twice, he placed a building block under his feet and swung the sledgehammer at the ceiling.

Boom!

The flying bricks and stones unexpectedly created a vertical passage, and sunlight poured in through the hole on the second floor. Yang Ming stepped on the building blocks and leaped through the gap. Before those lying on the ground could get up, their rotting bodies disintegrated in mid-air, and the scattered body parts accurately hit the remaining four zombies.

When the last zombie struggled to get up, the stone hammer was already against its chin. Yang Ming held the hammer handle with one hand and smiled.

"Good morning~"

With a slight flick of the wrist, its head exploded like a ripe pumpkin.

When Hong Xia walked in holding the wooden bow, Yang Ming inserted the stone hammer diagonally into the pool of blood, and the grass armor didn't even get much blood stains.

"Less than twenty minutes..."

She glanced at Yang Ming.

"It's even faster than clearing the restaurant just now, after all, there are more zombies here.
