Chapter 70: Information on Dealing with Zombies

A week later, Wang Zhi arrived at his residence. During this period, after going out on a mission, other teams quickly advanced to level three, and the number of teams on the third floor increased from three to twelve.

As soon as Wang Zhi stepped out of the elevator, he was momentarily stunned to see so many people in the training field. However, after thinking about the timing, it made sense. Advancing to level three only required obtaining 10,000 survival points, not necessarily consuming 10,000 points.

Wang Zhi also saw Tang Qilin training with five women. He wasn’t sure where he managed to get another one from, but that didn’t concern him. He didn’t have to worry about him bothering Liuli anymore.

Upon entering the residence, the lights were off. It seemed like they were sleeping. He hadn’t noticed them outside earlier.

Wang Zhi fumbled in the dark to reach his room and turned on the light, only to find Su Muqing and Jia Liuli lying in his bed, sleeping soundly.

“I say, you two, I’m not even home, and you have to come to my room?” Wang Zhi said, looking at the two of them on the bed.

“What? Your room?” Su Muqing groggily woke up and asked.

“Yeah, is this not my room?” Wang Zhi raised an eyebrow.

“Right, this is our room,” Su Muqing mumbled before falling back to sleep.

Seeing that Su Muqing was too sleepy to respond, Wang Zhi didn’t bother her any further. He dropped his luggage and left the room, heading to the living room to open his communicator and check the latest news from the Dawn Tower.

There were three pieces of good news and two pieces of bad news.

Good News 1: The zombie virus antibody vaccine has entered clinical trials, and mass production is expected to begin in a month.

Good News 2: To encourage the outgoing teams, the prices of military equipment have been slightly reduced.

Good News 3: If any foreign refugees wish to join the outgoing teams, they will be promoted to citizens. The refugee training program will restart, and survivors can earn 10 survival points after 12 hours of training.

Bad News 1: Refugees who do not join the outgoing teams will be demoted to the status of “wandering citizens.”

Bad News 2: Due to a power shortage, the price of electricity has increased from 1 survival point per kilowatt-hour to 2 survival points per kilowatt-hour.

Wang Zhi reviewed the notices. These were mostly what he expected, but the fact that food prices hadn’t increased was a surprise. Was the Tower holding on by sheer will or was there an abundance of resources left? Wang Zhi couldn’t estimate the depth of the Dawn Tower’s reserves.

From the five notices, it was clear that the good news mostly favored the outgoing teams, while the bad news mainly targeted the refugees. It seemed that the situation for the outgoing teams was not good, with the casualty rate increasing, causing significant problems for the future of the Dawn Tower.

After reading the notices, Wang Zhi checked his account. The team had accumulated a total of 33,500 survival points, with 19,500 remaining. To upgrade to a level four team, they still needed to gather 16,500 survival points.

He then checked his information earnings and realized that the outdated information he had been using could no longer bring in any income. It was time to gather some new intel.

Wang Zhi went to Fatty’s room and woke him up from his sleep.

“Wake up, Fatty!” Wang Zhi slapped Fatty’s backside.

“Ugh? What is it?” Fatty groggily mumbled.

“Get up. Let’s go out for a walk.”

“Are you serious? It’s late at night, and you’re dragging me around?” Fatty said, frustrated.

“I’ve been lying in the medical room for a whole week, and now I can’t sleep! Get up!” Wang Zhi continued to annoy Fatty.

In the end, Fatty reluctantly got out of bed. The two of them suited up in heavy-duty suits and left the residence.

“Ugh, I was having such a nice nap. You wouldn’t believe it, but I dreamed of Diao Chan! Wang Zhi, when I came here, I weighed 200 pounds, and now I’ve trained down to 150 pounds! I sweat so much every day. Now, when it’s finally rest time, you won’t let me relax?” Fatty grumbled behind him.

Wang Zhi glanced at Fatty and then sighed. “Does two hamburgers block your mouth?”

“Yes!”

After buying some food at the restaurant, the two of them headed to the information hall.

“Captain Wang Zhi?”

While they were on the way, someone called out from behind. Wang Zhi turned around.

“An Qing? Are you on patrol?” Wang Zhi saw An Qing wearing the guard’s armor.

“Yeah! I was just passing by. I heard from Captain Jie Xie that you were injured?”

“It’s nothing serious. If Captain Jie Xie can get injured, then it’s nothing for me,” Wang Zhi replied casually.

“Ah, I really want to go outside, but they won’t let me,” An Qing said, looking disappointed.

“Don’t even think about it. It’s no joke out there. No one wants to go unless it’s a mission,” Wang Zhi said, his tone serious.

“I just hate those monsters! I want to kill them!” An Qing’s eyes dimmed.

“You… sigh! Just train hard. I believe one day, the Dawn Tower will send you out to fight,” Wang Zhi said.

“Really?”

“Yes, when us outgoing teams are all gone, it’ll be your turn. Now, go do your patrol. I have to go,” Wang Zhi said, turning to leave.

The two of them arrived at the information hall. Wang Zhi entered the information about the mutated giant snake. The price was still 100 survival points per piece.

Afterward, Wang Zhi checked other information. As more teams went out, the amount of intel had increased.

He was hoping to find information on mutated zombies, but he couldn’t find any related intel. This left him feeling puzzled.

After searching a bit more, Wang Zhi found an entry titled “Information on Dealing with Zombies.” The price was 200 survival points.

“Damn, that’s expensive,” Wang Zhi muttered.

“Why don’t we unlock it first and then write our own version based on it and post it for a similar price?” Fatty suggested with a grin.

“Submitting intel requires approval. Do you think the people at Dawn Tower are fools? The intel only follows a first-come, first-serve rule. They worked hard to get the intel, so why should you get it without effort?” Wang Zhi gave Fatty a sideways glance.

“Oh~ I see.”

Since it was about how to deal with zombies, Wang Zhi didn’t hesitate and swiped his card to unlock the information.
