The goddess truly lived up to her title—no matter the activity, she never grew tired of it.
Xu Lang was no saint. A lofty flower like Cao Yaxuan, whom he could hardly even touch hands with before, now presented an opportunity he couldn't pass up to thoroughly study her.
While other students were worrying themselves to death, their psychological defenses crumbling over and over, Xu Lang's tiny dorm room was surprisingly vibrant and full of life.
Switching from a Phoenix brand bicycle to a Campagnolo—wouldn't anyone pedal like crazy given the chance?
By afternoon, Cao Yaxuan ntioned she was hungry.
Xu Lang spread his hands and said, "I'm hungry too!"
Cao Yaxuan: "Then I guess I'm not hungry anymore!"
The impression Xu Lang left on her yesterday about his appetite was just too vivid.
As evening fell, the zombies beca more active, their faint roars audible in the distance.
Xu Lang took out a treasured piece of Whole Wheat Bread and gave half to Cao Yaxuan.
"You still have food?!" Cao Yaxuan exclaid in pleasant surprise.
Xu Lang didn't answer.
Having learned her lesson, Cao Yaxuan didn't ask any further questions and started devouring the bread, coughing as she choked on the dry texture.
This stuff was seriously dry!
Xu Lang glanced at the water dispenser in his backpack, forcefully suppressing the urge to upgrade it.
Upgrading the water dispenser required 65 Nightmare Coins—no small amount.
Ti passed, and as night had just fallen, the dorm broadcast echoed in everyone's minds.
【Dorm Broadcast: Second Night - Zombies' hunting instincts have strengthened, ga difficulty increased】
This broadcast felt like a death knell!
The players were thrown into panic.
Sure enough, the zombies tonight beca unusually active, and there were faint signs of them banging on doors.
This terrified so players into posting outrageous statents wildly in the chat room, while not daring to make a sound in reality.
【3 Yang Yang: This dorm ga, screw your mother!】
【112 Wu Leiting: Who has wood? Lend so wood, I need to repair my door!】
【74 Wang Yingying: Can the guys on the fourth floor make so noise? Lure the zombies away first, then I'll draw them over—we'll kite the zombies!】
Xu Lang started creating as soon as the cooldown for the Nightmare Cot ended.
Sleeping "plain" worried him that Cao Yaxuan's Comfort Level wouldn't be recognized, so he had no choice but to do it this way.
Cao Yaxuan felt uncomfortable—the door of room 200 was also being slamd by zombies, accompanied by terrifying roars from outside.
In this situation, she didn't dare make a sound at all.
To help Xu Lang finish quickly, she began actively cooperating.
This move proved effective indeed.
Xu Lang swiftly concluded the battle, showing no intention of savoring the mont before imdiately falling asleep.
Wasting even one more minute would be disrespectful to the Nightmare Cot!
He was truly craving those Nightmare Coins.
"Impotent man!" Cao Yaxuan muttered under her breath, then succumbed to exhaustion and fell asleep as well.
...
The next day, upon waking, Xu Lang imdiately checked his Nightmare Coin balance.
【Basic Nightmare Coins 40, Conversion Rate 106%, 8-hour total production: 82 Nightmare Coins】
【Total Nightmare Coins: 198】
Nice!
Overjoyed, Xu Lang kissed Cao Yaxuan.
"Again? You're sothing else!" Cao Yaxuan snapped irritably.
People said guys were like that in the morning... but she really wasn't in the mood for that right now, just wanting to rest.
"Hehe." Xu Lang chuckled happily, feeling a bit more secure inside.
Upgrading the door further required 100 Nightmare Coins, and upgrading the water dispenser needed 65—he had more than enough.
However, he still didn't spend his Nightmare Coins recklessly.
—Let those less fortunate brothers test the waters and gather information first!
After one night, the most unlucky students had their door durability down to just two points. If they didn't seize the chance to fight soon, they could only wait for death.
No matter how many poor people there were, the fact remained that rich people earned money more easily than the poor and survived longer too.
【84 Li Wang: We can't go on like this!】
【24 Zhou Tao: I'm going out, who on the 2nd floor will join ?】
【170 Lu Yan: Crying, you guys on lower floors can still search for supplies elsewhere, but we on higher floors can only wait to die】
【147 Wang Yazhi: Higher floors have their advantages too—the zombies rushing in from the blood mist are all gathering downstairs. When they riot, the people on lower floors will suffer first】
【186 Wang Bo: Thanks for the comfort, Yazhi. Thinking about sitting around waiting to die sends chills down my spine】
【175 Zhou Ye: Brothers downstairs, if you find food supplies, can you trade so? I have a utility knife here】
【9 Sun Heng: If I find supplies, I can give them to you for free, but you need to invest in first. I'm almost dying of thirst and have no strength left】
【84 Li Wang: Sun Heng, you still owe 200 yuan. Do you think you have any credibility?】
【32 Ye Fan: Buying excrent for a fee—brothers and sisters too scared to go out can give your excrent, I'll throw it outside the building for you】
【88 Cao Bin: @Ye Fan, business genius】
Bang~
Suddenly, so brave soul threw a can downstairs, creating a loud noise.
A few scattered zombies roared but didn't rush out from the stairwell.
The chat room imdiately exploded.
【175 Zhou Ye: Damn, brothers on lower floors, what are you waiting for? It's just the first or second floor—just jump down, it's fine!】
【147 Wang Yazhi: Rember not to make too much noise】
【9 Sun Heng: I'm begging for one bottle of water—if I don't go downstairs in three minutes, I'm a grandson!】
Gradually, students began leaving their dorms.
Then they made an astonishing discovery.
The zombies seed to have entered a dormant state!
Perhaps if everyone stayed quiet, they could all go downstairs while the zombies were dormant!
However, despite saying this, the first players to go downstairs were still those on lower floors, and they did so by jumping.
No one dared to actually walk past the zombie hordes to go downstairs!
【6 Wang Yang: I found a chocolate bar in the teaching building. Everyone coming over, be careful not to make noise—there are zombies in the shadows】
This ssage greatly boosted morale.
Wang Yang was the student council president, so his words carried credibility.
【6 Jin Xin: Where's that brother with the utility knife from earlier? I have half a paper cup of water here, want to trade? (attached image)】
【143 Wang Nan: Oh heavens, please stop flooding the chat and hurry up searching for supplies. We're all counting on you guys】
The people on lower floors were excited, while those on higher floors were even more excited, hoping others would share once they got rich.
The first to get rich should help those who follow, right?
"Idiots! Still thinking it's peaceti!" Jin Xin curled his lips in the teaching building, about to mock them, when Wang Yang beside him tugged at him.
"Don't ss around, be careful they alert the zombies," Wang Yang said seriously.
Jin Xin felt a chill in his heart.
【6 Jin Xin: Yes, yes, brother. It seems supplies randomly spawn outside the dorm building. Don't worry, everyone will have food later】
"Hurry up and search," Wang Yang whispered.
With few people outside now, they were essentially the first to discover this blue ocean.
Later, when more people ca out, the difficulty of searching for supplies would increase.
The world never lacks clever people.
Wang Yang was one of them.
He guessed that the five-day ga gave them the first two days to adapt.
If they didn't seize this ti to develop, it would be hard to catch up later!
Upper-floor players suffered bitterly while clinging to hope, while lower-floor players acted like they'd struck gold, their intentions unclear.
One could only say that human joys and sorrows are never truly shared.
