Chapter 19: Game Mercenary
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Chen Gui was a federally registered game mercenary.
He received quests in the game to earn money.
In the game mercenary world, he had a famous nickname, Prisoner Snake.
After entering the game’s new ‘server’, he immediately discovered a large-scale system shelter and gathered a nearby group of villain players with combat-type talent through the survival radio.
Prisoner Snake successfully united these people into a small team and became the leader of the team.
This team was very powerful in the early stages. He felt that this was a god-given opportunity and he might even have a chance to become an overlord in the game.
In front of the bonfire in the shelter, Prisoner Snake and his subordinates celebrated today’s harvest.
“Hahaha, Ah-er, well done! You found that b*tch’s nest. I’ll give you credit this time!”
Lin Ah-er touched the hound by his feet and laughed proudly, “No prey can escape Ray’s nose.”
“Hehe, Brother Snake, we’ve done some investigation. There’s the girl and a thin old man there. Both of them don’t have much combat ability. We’ll definitely take them down tomorrow.”
“Mmm, let’s eat to our fill tonight. We’ll go there to ambush them at dawn tomorrow. No matter who comes out from there, we’ll kill them directly.”
Prisoner Snake’s face was full of viciousness.
He wasn’t a man of faith and did not display kindness to others. When he was a mercenary, killing people in the game was a common occurrence. He didn’t have any psychological burden.
“Just kill all of them and steal their materials.”
“Hehehe.”
A rather sweet and charming-looking woman giggled as she sat on Prisoner Snake’s lap.
“Brother Snake, don’t kill and fight all the time. Leave a few people alive and ask them how they found so much food in the game. That way, we won’t have to be on tenterhooks all day.”
Prisoner Snake’s eyes lit up as he touched Qiao Na’s smooth legs. “Good, good, good. You’re the smart one. I’ll listen to you. How do you think I should reward you tonight?”
“Aiya, Brother Snake doesn’t pity me at all…”
As she said this, Brother Snake suddenly frowned.
“What’s that sound?”
“Shh.”
Brother Snake became alert. He signaled all the players to keep quiet.
“Dong!”
There was another sound.
It wasn’t very loud, but it wasn’t soft either.
It seemed to be the sound of a collision?
“Dong!”
The sound came from outside the shelter.
“Dong!”
As they traced the source of the sound, everyone couldn’t help but look at the wooden wall behind Brother Snake.
It seemed like someone was knocking on the wall of the cabin?!
“Dong! Dong!”
The frequency of the knocking became higher and higher.
The sound began to ring out in all directions in the shelter.
For a moment, the players in the shelter all broke out in cold sweat.
What was going on?
Why was there such a strange sound?
Could it be that the zombies had invaded?
That wasn’t right!
The game’s 72-hour protection time had not yet expired, so the zombies would not take the initiative to attack the shelter during this period!
Moreover, hearing such a loud noise, there must be a lot of zombies attacking from the outside!
Could it be a player invasion?!
That was even more impossible!
At night, the zombies would go into a ‘berserk’ state and all their attributes would be enhanced.
In addition, the viewing distance of the players at night was very short, so early-stage players would not be able to act at night!
“Dong! Dong! Dong!”
The hammering sounds became more and more frequent and louder, as if there was a circle of enemies surrounding the cabin.
It was too terrifying! What on earth was outside?
[Hint: Your shelter is under attack.]
[Hint: Your shelter’s safety level is decreasing.]
[Hint: Please repair your shelter and protect it from attacks.]
[Hint: Your shelter’s current safety level is 12. As the safety level decreases, the maximum number of players that can be accommodated in the shelter will gradually decrease.]
Everyone’s expression changed again.
They did not know what was outside, but if this continued, the shelter might not be able to survive!
“Calm down. What are you afraid of?”
Brother Snake pretended to be calm. He pointed at one of his subordinates and said, “Wang Shao, go out and take a look!”
Wang Shao was also a mercenary who did not say much.
He nodded and raised the baseball bat in his hand.
Under everyone’s eyes, Wang Shao slowly walked to the wooden door and slowly reached out his hand, preparing to push it open.
“Dong!”
Before Wang Shao was ready to open the door, the wooden door suddenly let out a “Dong” sound.
Wang Shao was startled by the sudden sound and took half a step back.
“Humph! You’re playing tricks!”
Wang Shao was enraged and pushed the door open.
An ugly zombie was blocking the door with a small stone hammer in its hand.
“Ah!!!”
Qiao Na was so scared that her face turned pale and she screamed loudly.
“It’s a zombie! ! You’re crazy! Wang Shao, close the door!!”
“Get lost!”
The veins on Wang Shao’s forehead bulged. He shouted and swung the baseball bat at the zombie’s head. Then, he raised his leg and kicked the zombie back a few steps.
Taking advantage of the gap, Wang Shao quickly poked his head out and looked out the door.
Wang Shao’s scalp went numb when he saw what was happening outside!
It was too dark to see clearly at night, but with this glance, he saw at least five or six zombies swinging hammers at the wall of the shelter.
Wang Shao quickly retreated and closed the wooden door tightly.
He panted heavily and a layer of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
“What’s going on outside?”
“What’s going on? Tell me!!”
Wang Shao took a deep breath and said, “There are at least a dozen zombies smashing the wall.”
Hearing this, everyone’s faces turned pale.
At least seven or eight? How could they fight?
For a moment, the sound of hammering echoed throughout the shelter like a life-threatening talisman.
“What should we do? What should we do?” Qiao Na was scared out of her wits. She held Brother Snake’s hand tightly and begged for help, “Brother Snake, think of something! I don’t want to die! I don’t want to die!”
“Shut up! B*tch, what are you doing?!”
Prisoner Snake was in a terrible mood. He slapped Qiao Na with his palm.
He had no idea what to do!
“Let’s fight it out with them!”
Prisoner Snake’s eyes turned red and his blood raged with anger.
If this continued, the shelter would be destroyed and they would all die!
If they fought, there might be a 50% chance of survival.
“Let’s go! It’s just a few nights of zombies! We have so many people, and we’re still afraid of a few zombies!” Prisoner Snake took out a steel rod from his backpack and led the way to the door.
“Bang!”
Prisoner Snake kicked the door open and hit the zombie’s head with the rod.
The zombie was hit by the rod and staggered back a few steps.
…
In the cabin, Liao Bufan and Liu Lin didn’t go offline.
Fang Heng had been urging them to go offline to rest.
However, how could they sleep peacefully under such circumstances!
After all, Fang Heng sitting in front of the bonfire in a daze was not reassuring…
Both of them were trying their best to prepare for the upcoming fierce battle.
Jimmy, on the other hand, was holding a cup of hot tea as usual.
He was still online purely for the sake of playing the game for a longer time.
To be honest, Jimmy also wanted to see how this young man would deal with this crisis.
Fang Heng, who was sitting in front of the bonfire, seemed to be in a daze, but in fact, he had been staring at the game log.
[Hint: Your zombie clone used a stone hammer to demolish a building. Obtained firewood*1.]

It’s coming!
Fang Heng’s eyes lit up.
“You can’t hold it in anymore? Your endurance is bad, brother.”
Fang Heng licked his lips and muttered softly.
“Our game has just begun.”
