Chapter 118: Expansion Plan
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio | Editor Nyoi-Bo Studio
(Hint: Your zombie group has mined iron ore 1207. You have gained 4126
mining experience points.]
(Hint: A portion of your zombie group has completed a round of growth. You
have gained 55 zombie clone proliferators.)
(Hint: Your mining skill has been upgraded to Level 11.)
When Fang Heng drove back to the abandoned mine, some of the zombies that
hadn’t fought had completed their first wave of growth.
He did a quick check.
The attributes and skills of the newly-born zombie proliferators were the same
as the zombie clones!
In other words, the proliferators of the vine zombies were the evolved version
of the vine zombies.
Ordinary zombies could only produce ordinary zombies
Fang Heng did some calculations.
Originally, he only had 55 zombies at Level 1o, but now, he had levelled up to
Level 13
After he went through the SSS-level talent enhancement, he estimated that in
another 15 hours, he would have a total of 384 zombies in his ideal state!
That was almost seven times the number of zombies!
That was awesome.
With seven times the number of zombies, their hacking efficiency would at
least increase by four to five times?
However, he faced another challenge with the increase in zombies.
With so many more zombies, Fang Heng needed to prepare more than 300 sets
of iron tools and equipment for the zombies.
The number of iron nuggets was insufficient again.
Fang Heng lowered his head and thought for a moment. Most of his zombie
clones could only use the basic wooden tools.
In addition, the number of zombies had increased by seven times. The mining
speed could be guaranteed.
In comparison, to increase the forging speed of the iron, more furmaces were
needed.
The Dawn Gaming Guild had indeed given three furnaces for free.
It was still insufficient!
They still needed to purchase another batch from the apocalypse merchant
Vettel.
The biggest problem at the moment was still the lack of survival points!
It was too slow to collect survival points just by relying on the zombies “wild
hack”!
After making up his mind, Fang Heng first used a batch of newly produced iron
nuggets to produce iron pickaxes and let the zombie clones distribute the
pickaxes among themselves to continue mining.
Then, he called a few more zombie clones and loaded the unrefined iron ore
into the truck.
“Tt’s been a long time since I last visited my old friend Vettel.”
Fang Heng activated the military truck and revealed a smile.
Tt was time to fulfil his long-cherished wish and empty his shop!
Fang Heng drove the truck back to the apocalypse merchant camp.
As usual, the NPCs instinctively gathered toward the truck as they looked at the
large truck driving into the camp.
Seeing the pile of ores behind the truck, the NPC porters all had the same
expression as expected.
One by one, they started to move the iron ore out of the truck
“Fang Heng! Long time no see!
Vettel came out of the house with two bottles of wine and handed a bottle to
Fang Heng
“Let me gues, what good stuff did you bring me this time?
“Stop guessing, it’s iron ore! Your camp must need these things, right?”
“Of course! I need them! You’re my lucky star.”
Vettel glanced at the porters who were moving the iron ore out.
“You brought so much?
He was a little surprised.
“I remember there’s an abandoned mine nearby. Did you occupy that place?
“You’re right!”
Hint: You have submitted 200 units of iron ore to apocalypse merchant Vettel.
You have received 600 survival points.]
[Hint: You have completed the mission-collect iron ore.]
(Hint: Your friendship with merchant Vettel has increased.]
[Hint: You have submitted 200 units of iron ore to apocalypse merchant Vettel.
You have received 600 survival points.]
[Hint: You have completed.
The porters took more than 20 minutes to clear the truck.
Vettel had long finished a bottle of beer.
Fang Heng looked at the game log.
He had earned 45,00o survival points from this truck of iron ore.
The camp was still purchasing from the outside world and had not reached the
upper limit
He could continue farming!
Max out!
Fang Heng glanced at Vettel bes
Empty his shop!
“Vettel, I still need to buy some furnaces from you.”
“Hmm, furnaces. Let me see. This thing is not easy to get. Every month, I sell a
limited number of furnaces to the public.”
“You’re lucky. The current survivors don’t need this thing. There’s got a lot of
them.”
“Don’t worry. With our relationship, I’ll give you the lowest price.”
Fang Heng opened the trading page to check.
There were a total of 20 furnaces in the camp, and the price was 2000 points
each.
Fang Heng waved his hand.
Empty it!
[Hint: you spent 40,o00 survival points to buy the furnace*20.]
“Please come back again next time!”
After going back and forth to the apocalypse camp, Fang Heng returned to the
abandoned mine with the furnaces.
In the abandoned mine, Fang Heng controlled the zombies to start working on
the 23 furmaces at the same time!
The temperature in the entire mine rose sharply!
After only staying for a few minutes, Fang Heng’s back was already drenched in
sweat.
The zombies were still good employees!
They could still work even in such an environment!
With the furmace, the smelting speed of the iron nuggets increased greatly.
Similarly, the consumption rate of coal ore as fuel also increased greatly.
It was estimated that the fuel would be used up in three to four hours.
For the time being, logs could be cut into firewood as raw materials.
However, doing so would consume too much energy and waste too much time.
The small-scale coal mine that they found a while ago had not been fully
developed yet, so they could continue to mine...
“There are still many things that need to be dealt with to get everything on the
right track.
Fang Heng wiped the sweat off his forehead and sent a few zombies over to
split the logs, preparing to use them as backup fuel after the coal ores were
used up.
“Take it slow
It lasted until 1 a.m.
By the time all the zombies had completed their third growth, the entire
abandoned mine was already filled with zombie clones.
384, no more, no less.
Fang Heng counted the number of zombies and started controlling the
zombies to hack” in batches.
He first differentiated a group of vine zombie proliferators.
With the existence of the clones, the proliferators could be resurrected in six
hours, so there wouldn’t be any pain when they died.
He changed their tools into small iron hammers and told them to go out and
carry out the ‘demolition plan’ that had a slight risk.
Specifically, they would search the entire forest area and demolish all the small
shelters that could be seen in the forest area!
This would greatly reduce the chances of players respawning nearby!
The remaining zombie clones split into three groups.
One group continued to mine iron, while the other was responsible for
controlling the furnaces to forge iron.
The last group was equipped with iron pickaxes and headed to the former
mining site to mine coal.
“That’s more like it..”
After racking his brains, Fang Heng finally finished the zombies’ hack plan.
He made a rough calculation in his heart.
With this efficiency, in two days at most, the zombie clones’ equipment could
be changed, officially entering the Iron Age.
So tired..
Yawning, Fang Heng couldn’t hold on any longer and went offline on the spot.
At two o’clock in the morning, the Phoenix Sound Gaming Company was still
brightly lit.
“President Li, we’ve checked, and indeed, we can’t find anything wrong with
Fang Heng on the books”
Li Ru was extremely frustrated.
Fang Heng’s resignation had caused her to receive quite a bit of criticism in the
company.
She tried her best to suppress her anger.
“You can’t find anything? Are you trying to tell me that I’m wrong?”
“Then let me ask you, where did the wooden planks that Fang Heng submitted
to the federation come from? There has to be a source, right?
Secretary Zhang felt bitter in his heart.
He couldn’t understand this question no matter how much he thought about it.
“We also asked a few new employees who work in Team 12.”
“And then? What did they say?”
Zhang Linhu?’s expression was very strange.
He stammered, “They said that these wooden planks were randomly picked up
in the forest.”
