Chapter 142 Attraction
A row of game prompts were refreshed, and Fang Heng noticed that part of the materials accumulated in the shelter had disappeared.
The basement shelter expands outward again.
After the renovation, Fang Heng gained twice the extra space!
“That’s enough for now!”
Fang Heng checked the two new functions of the shelter after the upgrade.
One is NPC recruitment.
The shelter can now attract survivors up to C level.
Very good, after all, survivors below C level have almost no special skills.
Only C-level survivors have the potential to become laboratory handymen.
The other is the improvement of the shelter's defense value.
Unlike ordinary buildings, after the player builds a shelter, the shelter will be considered a whole building, and any point attacked will reduce the overall durability.
Reduced to a certain level, the shelter will be judged to be damaged, and only intruders can destroy the walls of the shelter.
In addition, by consuming additional materials, players can replace the original wooden walls of the shelter with stone walls, which will additionally increase the basic defense value and durability.
Stones are the most basic material. Fang Heng plans to let the zombies upgrade with stones after returning from this mission.
[Tip: As the first player in the server whose shelter level reaches LV: 25, your reputation among survivors has been slightly spread. You will receive an additional reward: C-level NPC survivor*5, please receive the operation on the survival radio].
[Tip: Since your shelter reaches LV: 25, as a shelter owner, you gain an exclusive skill - Extra Large Backpack].
Skills - Extra large backpack.
Skill Description: You gain an additional backpack capacity of current character level*20KG.
Huh? Is there such a good thing?
The oversized backpack skill is the icing on the cake, and the C-level NPC is relatively more powerful.
Fang Heng turned on the survival radio to observe.
[Tip: You can choose the type of reward for C-level NPC survivors].
Fang Heng took a general look.
There are many types of NPCs, common ones such as mechanical maintenance, cooking, combat, collecting, scientific research, farming, tailoring, mechanical research and development, construction, etc.
At this stage, Fang Heng has no shortage of survival materials. We will talk about farming and other NPCs later.
Choose scientific research directly!
[Tip: If you choose a survivor with scientific research attributes, the survivors will gather outside your shelter within 30 minutes].
The upgrade of the shelter was completed, Fang Heng touched his chin and continued thinking.
Today, the expansion and development of the shelter is fully on track.
First of all, the demolition plan is still proceeding in an orderly manner.
With the prison as the center, all buildings within a three-kilometer radius have been cleared.
The next plan is to clear the entire forest area of players, set up a no-go area, and then expand outward again.
The second is scientific research.
Most of the primary instruments in the laboratory have been repaired, and most of the remaining ones cannot be repaired due to skill levels and missing high-level materials.
In general, after picking up a secret laboratory for free, the research and development speed of the shelter has been greatly improved compared to before!
After all, two S-class researchers have a huge bonus to research!
The last thing is the material aspect.
The development is most gratifying!
All zombies have been equipped with iron weapons and iron tools, and thousands of forged iron blocks have been accumulated.
The Iron Age is officially declared!
Fang Heng began to think about his next plan.
Reinforcement!
Expansion!
Reinforce the shelter, upgrade all the stone walls, and transform the outer buildings of the prison into spiked wire fences to prepare to resist the arrival of the first blood moon zombie wave.
At the same time, continue to expand outwards to harvest resources until you occupy this forest area!
If you want to speed up, you need more and stronger zombie clones!
Scientific research is a must!
In addition, it has become urgent to improve the character level now.
Fang Heng opened the page and looked at the player attributes.
The player level has been raised to level 13.
If you want to continue to upgrade, you will need more first-level evolutionary crystals.
First-order evolutionary crystals are very difficult to produce.
Only by killing level 2 zombies will there be a chance of them exploding.
There are almost no tasks related to second-level zombies in Doomsday Merchant Vittel.
There are also very few related tasks within the Dark Knights.
There are nearly sixty or seventy first-order evolutionary crystals of the gap that have been upgraded from level 13 to 14. One or two ordinary tasks are simply not enough to fill the gap.
We have to start from other aspects.
For example...
Pinewood City.
There should be high-level alienated zombies in that dangerous area!
We are going to Songmu City tomorrow. If there is a chance, Fang Heng would not mind finding a way to dig a large corpse pit there to get some survival points and evolution crystals.
While I was thinking, an NPC knocked on the door.
"Boss, Mr. David of the Dark Knights is here to visit. I have taken him to wait in the reception room."
"Okay, I'll be there right away!"
...
In the reception room, David was pacing back and forth, looking a little restless.
“Welcome to my shelter, David, how is it here?”
“Very nice.”
Seeing Fang Heng’s arrival, David revealed his Smiling, "Fang Heng, long time no see. How are you doing?"
"It's okay, come on, sit down and talk."
"No, something happened. I have to rush to another assembly point later."
David took Fang Heng He walked to the table and said seriously: "I'm here to explain to you. About tomorrow’s operation in Pinewood City.”
“This time we have a total of twelve teams going to Pinewood City, each with 6 people.”
“A total of 72 people? How much?”
Fang Heng was surprised.
"That's not all. Counting the command team, we have a total team of nearly 80 people."
"From what we have learned at this stage of the investigation, the Meteorite Company is building in Pinewood City We have created a very large company park, and our twelve teams will be dispersed throughout the company park to search step by step."
David said, taking out a map and spreading it on the round table in the reception room.
“The specific search tasks will be assigned by the team leader after on-site inspection. This is the gathering point 8 closest to you. The helicopter will depart at 11 noon tomorrow and is expected to arrive in Songmu at 3 pm City.”
"If everything goes well, we will stay in Songmu City for one night, and the helicopter will arrive at noon the next day to pick us up and evacuate Songmu City."
Fang Heng looked at the location of the meeting point on the map.
It’s a bit far, about two hours’ drive.
Based on this calculation, we have to set off early tomorrow morning.
"Also, I got some very bad news when I came."
David said solemnly: "We originally prepared fifteen teams to enter Pinewood City together, but this morning, eight survival points were attacked by unknown sources, and three of them were completely destroyed."
Destroyed? Someone is interfering with this mission?
Fang Heng’s eyelids twitched.
He immediately thought of Lao Hei.
“Who did it?”
"It's unclear, but one thing is confirmed. Our operation this time has probably been leaked. Some people don't want us to enter Songmu City to investigate."
"I will rush to the scene to conduct a detailed on-site investigation." , I hope to find something."
"Be careful." David patted Fang Heng on the shoulder, "This is the first large-scale operation since the establishment of our Dark Knights. There is no room for error." (End of this chapter)
