Most of the effect of the medicine had worn off, and waves of weakness were coming from his body. He knelt on the roof, with vague tinnitus in his ears and deep and intractable fatigue. He realized how precious rest was.

Trying hard to stay awake, he first repaired his armor with grass, then took out [Steroids] and injected it into his thigh, and put [Stronger] into his mouth, letting the effect of the medicine continue to cover his body.

“It’s so fucking disgusting…”

"ah----!!!"

He heard the sharp scream again...this time it was clearer than before.

The moment the stable collapsed, he was forced to fall into the middle of the zombie group. The sharp claws kept grabbing the grass armor. Yang Ming's hands were tightly grasped by the rotten palms, and he was unable to use the sledgehammer for a while.

He switched to a shotgun, and two bullets blasted a clearing out from the swarm of corpses. He endured the wounds on his body that kept healing and reopening, and urged himself to get out of the predicament from the clearing with his legs as if tied with steel.

My lungs were filled with iron sand, my arms were too heavy to lift, my vision was blurred, and I could only smell the strong smell of my own blood in my nose... For a moment, I couldn't tell whether it was my own or theirs.

——Even though everything is a game, I am still just a human being.

If it was really just a bunch of code made up of [data], how could his injury affect his combat? How could his body react to these pills and have this...

Yang Ming's eyeballs were half covered in blood, and the world flickered between red and black. He fumbled for the bone knife from his backpack and slashed the blade across his eyelids, directly slicing through the heavy, sticky lids.

"Come... continue..."

He roared hoarsely, his mind blurring as he used the shotgun in his hand like a sledgehammer to smash into the zombie's cheekbone. The butt of the gun was embedded in the rotten flesh and could not be pulled out. Then he used the bone knife to cut the zombie's cheek and pulled the shotgun back.

The moment he switched back to the sledgehammer, he felt his arm was almost unable to bear its weight, accompanied by a bone-chilling pain - in his shoulder, which he had swung with such ease before...

"Ha ha···"

The heavy body seemed to be stained with decay.

These things, filled with the breath of death, were howling excitedly, trying to drag this man into death.

This shouldn't be the case.

——I am... just a failed novelist who occasionally exercises and lives an ordinary but passable life.

Am I missing something?

Upgrades, supplies, weapons, I have clearly done my best, just wanting to survive with Hongxia, Yili and the others.

He thought he would be furious with them, but in fact he was not. The heart that should have been burning with anger became particularly empty and void. After all, they were just unconscious corpses, following biological instincts that he didn't know whether they existed or not. Fighting against these thoughtless things, any of his thoughts became meaningless.

I thought I was already very strong, at least within the human realm.

But when the enemies we face are these inhuman creatures, does being strong really make sense?

The man watched as the environment in front of him gradually became familiar. Just to the left of where he escaped... was the shelter where he had lived for several days.

There is a very strange "balcony" extending outwards, with farmland on it where crops have already grown.

Dew collector...I wonder how many bottles of water it has collected?

Water... the more water the better, so Hongxia and Yili can take a bath and wash clothes...

He almost fell down, but he still endured the severe pain in his legs and moved forward. Yang Ming's thighs felt heavy as if they were filled with lead.

The footsteps of the zombies behind him sounded like the knell of death. The closest one was only ten steps away from him. He had no way of stopping to rest. Even with every step he took, his thighs felt as if the muscles were tearing. At this moment, he clearly felt the coming of death.

Further ahead was the [mausoleum]. He remembered that the wall there was made of rock.

Coming to the edge of the wall, two building blocks were quickly snapped down. He sat on the edge of the wall, watching the zombies as if a lot of black ink was dripping on paper. In an instant, the wall was surrounded by water.

"ah----!!!"

Scream...it's that scream again...it's so loud.

I'm already very tired...why can't I give my ears a rest?

Yang Ming watched indifferently as the zombies attacked the wall. Cracks were appearing on the rock wall at a speed visible to the naked eye. He had to walk slowly on the wall to ensure that the wall under his feet would not suddenly collapse.

Chapter 75: Redemption on the Top of the Church

Soon, the wall was about to collapse, and Yang Ming decisively gave up the wall and went directly to the center of the [Mausoleum], the edge of the church wall. He put blocks under his feet, and the severe pain caused by each jump was making him feel the torment of "giving up".

The obsession in his heart has kept him going until now. He wants to survive, wants to see tomorrow's sunrise, and wants to live a life surrounded by beautiful girls.

I want to have fun all the time, until I die!

The wall collapsed, zombies poured in, and Yang Ming sat on the top stone slab of the church.

[Fractured thigh bone - Use a splint or cast to heal. Jumping and running can make the injury worse.]

[Broken Arm - Use a splint or plaster to heal, slow down reload speed, slow down melee attack speed, and aggravate the injury when attacking.]

[Bleeding! You are bleeding!]

[Infection! You are already infected. Please use honey or antibiotics to cure it.]

[Scrape! You have been scratched. Please use a bandage or first aid kit to heal.]

[Concussion! You will feel dizzy, please use painkillers to recover.]

[Serious Injury! You are seriously injured. Please use the first aid kit to heal.]

"Haha... the buff is maxed out."

Yang Ming looked at his health points which were only 15, so he packed a first aid kit, put splints on his arms and thighs, and took painkillers, vitamins, and antibiotics. As his health points began to recover, he finally regained some spirit, but his physical weakness was protesting against him.

The dried blood stuck to his cheeks was very uncomfortable. He wanted to wipe it with rags, but found that they had all been used to make bandages.

He took out a bottle of water and poured it over his head. The sticky feeling was finally much better. Yang Ming forced himself to stay awake and looked around for a way to survive.

The zombies surrounded the church and began to attack. The rock building could at least last longer than the wooden house...

How long had he been running with the zombies? It must have been at least two hours.

Calculate the time you and the girls have held on...

Tianming, isn’t it a little too slow?

Will I ever see the dawn? If I die here, will the targeted [player] change? Will those filthy, ugly creatures pounce on the girl I care about?

He clenched his fists, this was something he couldn't accept.

"ah----!!!"

The screams...came again.

And this time, it's clearer.

Yang Ming widened his eyes. He was sitting on the top of the high church. With the clear vision, he finally saw the source of the sound!

A mouth that was split open to the brim, sharp and ferocious teeth, disheveled hair, a tattered white dress stained with blood...

It was exactly what Yang Ming dreamed of, the bride eating the groom!

"Oh it's you!!"

His physical weakness was still getting worse, even his lips were trembling, and the wounds on his body that had not yet healed were attacking him all the time. Yang Ming was being tortured at this moment.

But these are nothing to worry about.

He finally found the culprit, and now, it's time to put an end to it all!

But...how can I get down there?

Building blocks cannot be left in the air without any connection. In other words, if you want to build a staircase extending downward, you need the support of a wall.

The building blocks that jumped up have been demolished by zombies, and I...

There's nothing I can do...

If he jumped directly from a height of twenty meters, his fracture would be aggravated again and he might even lose his ability to move.

What to do...

“Yang Ming!”

The familiar voice belongs to the girl he has been dreaming about, Ichichi Hongka!

Hongxia and Yili were standing on the roof about twenty meters away from the church. After discovering themselves, they were building upwards using building blocks.

She has the skill of [Parkour] and can jump very high. A jump of four or five meters allows her to put two building blocks under her feet at once. At this speed, she can reach the same height as herself in less than ten seconds!

Goto Ichiri, holding a pistol, was on guard near the building blocks built by Hongxia.

Fortunately, all the zombies were still attracted by Yang Ming, and none of them headed towards the girl.

——What is she going to do!?

Yang Ming immediately understood her idea. She wanted to rescue herself by building blocks?!

His nails dug deep into the weathered stone railings, sending rustling lime cascading down onto the throng of corpses below. Hong Xia's golden hair danced in the wind, her expression growing more panicked with each building block she lifted. The wind from nearly twenty meters above blasted through his torn grass armor, and the unhealed wounds on his back were suddenly scabbed open by the draft, leaving fresh blood stains in the shadow cast by the cross.

"Don't come over here!

When he roared, he realized that his vocal cords were as rough as sandpaper.

Hong Xia's short boots slipped on the high-suspended building blocks. Yang Ming reflexively threw most of his body out, but suddenly came to his senses and realized that he was also in the air with no way out. He hurriedly stabilized his body.

Fortunately, Hongxia supported herself on the building blocks with her hands and did not fall down.

Her knees were trembling. The cold wind in the sky not only made her feel cold, but as soon as she looked down, her visual nerves immediately realized how high and dangerous she was. The instinctive fear made her movements stiff.

She bit her lips hard, and the taste of blood spread in her mouth. Yidi Chi Hongxia looked up at Yang Ming who was trapped on the top of the building. Through the limbs exposed by the grass armor, she could see the wounds that had not yet healed, almost turning him into a bloody man.

Despite her heartache, her jewel-like eyes shone with determination.

The two of them had reached the same height, and Hong Xia immediately began to build a bridge towards him.

"Building blocks need to bear weight! They will collapse at such a distance..."

"I know! Pochi-chan!"

Yang Ming was stunned. This was the first time Hong Xia interrupted him in a harsh tone.

"coming."

Goto Ichiri responded and started to build building blocks directly on the road leading from Hongxia to the roof of Yangming Church. The place where Ichiri built was exactly where Hongxia came from. The blocks built by the two of them at the same time could just be connected to form a "T" shape.

It's like a sky bridge that can redeem oneself.

"you···"

"Why! You're allowed to save us, but you can't let us be heroes for once?"

The building blocks that Goto Ichiri built this time were not just the one under her feet, but she also placed blocks at connected locations. In this way, she could connect to the [load-bearing wall] called Hongxia and then safely return to the ground by retracting the connected building blocks.

"You guys... are taking too much risk."

"These zombies won't even look at us anyway."

"Just because you... lock onto me doesn't mean you won't be attacked."

Yang Ming looked at Hong Xia who was approaching him through the load-bearing wall connected for a mile. He wanted to say something, blaming them for being too risky. If the zombies turned around and attacked them, wouldn't all their hard work be in vain?

"You're not the only one who wants to be a hero, idiot!"

Chapter 76 The Dawn That Will Finally Come

Yang Ming looked at Hong Xia's hand extended towards him and subconsciously extended his own hand.

——I’m an old player and will protect you, newcomer.

Did I reach out to Hong Xia with the same feeling at that time?

The thorns on the back of the hand became dazzling at this moment, flashing with dazzling brilliance.

"Hurry! They'll be here soon!"

Hong Xia pulled Yang Ming and ran quickly on the bridge built with building blocks. Her pretty face was full of determination at this moment.

Yang Ming looked down at the group of zombies still attacking the church, and immediately realized that this was an opportunity that could not be missed!

"I found the thing that formed the blood moon. You and I will act separately later."

"How to do?"

"They're still attacking the church. I think they'll chase me again once I get back to the surface. I'm going to go find that thing, and you guys help me lay down a layer of building blocks. It just needs to buy me a little time!"

"Don't attack the zombies. I'm not sure if they will transfer their hatred."

"Just be careful, okay?"

Looking at Yang Ming's serious eyes, Hong Xia smiled.

"You should be careful, I've told you many times."
