This Thing Had No Sense of Fair Play
Silent City, with Living Dead walking the streets.
The main strengths of Zombie lie in their infectiousness and sheer numbers.
In the Real World, even if Bio-Crisis were to break out, unless the infection spread to more than 90% of the world's population at the same time, it wouldn't be a major problem.
After all, the human body is too fragile. Guns can effectively deal with the Living Dead. The power of a gunshot wound in the Real World is not just what is shown on TV as a wound and bleeding. It can directly and brutally sever human muscles.
--Of course, we're not talking about those Mutated Zombie that keep evolving.
However, at least for now, based on Young Feather's previous observations, among the hundreds of Zombie wandering below the residential area, there are none that exhibit any Special Zombie.
However, even if those were just common Zombie, they were still beyond the capabilities of the four "survivors" who had been trapped here for more than two months.
"So, does that mean we can only demonstrate the fighting capabilities expected of someone in our current role?"
After Bai Zhi's reminder, Young Feather quickly understood what this meant, and his face immediately darkened.
"So how are we supposed to fight like this? A guy who's gone crazy from Postgraduate Entrance Exam, a patient with severe insomnia and moderate depression whose shoulders can only lift heavy objects but his hands can't carry anything, and I don't even know myself, you're probably a hoodlum too... How are we supposed to deal with those Zombie?"
"Congratulations, you've successfully offended three people with just one sentence."
Bai Zhi glanced at the other person with a slightly strange expression and suddenly began to wonder whether the other person was genuinely that lacking in emotional intelligence or was just putting on an act.
"In short, that's the basic situation. We can't act in ways that contradict our established personas. After all, we're survivors who've been trapped here for almost two months. We can't just pull out a gun or a sword out of thin air, grab some props or mounts, and start hacking our way out... You get what I mean?"
"Now we're completely out of ammunition and food. We have no food or water. Although there's food in our Inventory, we absolutely can't take it out. We can only endure the hunger."
Reaching out to touch his stomach, OriginDeficit sighed with a hint of helplessness.
"Logically speaking, our attributes are already beyond those of ordinary people. Even if we don't eat for Seven Days, we can still survive thanks to our superior Constitution and remain energetic. But if we do that in the roles we play, it would be a departure from our character. Normally, it wouldn't matter if we were just acting, but this thing doesn't care about martial ethics... Have you noticed that we get hungry much faster here than usual?"
"Now that you mention it, it does seem a bit... I mean, how come I got thirsty so quickly before?"
Young Feather's expression changed slightly.
"This Dungeon is fucking disgusting. There's food, but you can't eat it. You can beat it, but you can't. At the same time, you have to be careful not to break character. It's so restrictive and frustrating."
"The unique rules of Anomaly... I finally understand why so many worlds perish."
Bai Zhi reached out and gently pressed his forehead, feeling quite emotional.
"Because this thing... it doesn't have any martial ethics..."
As I said before, what's the use of being incredibly strong when faced with such Anomaly with its unique rules? You still have to do what you have to do.
The standard for judging Player's actual strength is still their Survival Ability. As long as your ability to survive is strong enough, even if your stats are reduced to zero in the end, you will be safe and sound.
Death ends everything; living is the most important thing.
So what should we do now?
Touching his stomach, Young Feather spoke with a pained expression.
"You guys were fine before, but now the more you talk about it, the hungrier and thirstier I get... I can't use the food in my Inventory, and I guess I can't take out my Equipment, weapons, or items either, and I can't use my Skill either, otherwise I'll have to reload and lose points... Hmm?"
Suddenly noticing the changes in his body, Young Feather was slightly taken aback.
"No, some things can still be used, as long as they're not too obvious."
Bai Zhi glanced down at his hands, a thoughtful look on his face.
"I just applied a buff to you, increasing your Strength, agility, and Constitution by 20%. This increase in attributes can effectively combat thirst... but it's only a temporary solution."
As he spoke, Bai Zhi casually cast a buff on the other two as well.
One of the special Special Effect of the Perfect Skill [Shadow] is that it can increase the attribute value of oneself or others by 20% for one hour and consumes 50 points of Spiritual Energy.
If it weren't for the boost from that Gem, and the increased Spiritual Energy from the Magic Potion that gave him that Hell experience, which raised his Spiritual Energy Value to a higher level, he might not have the confidence to use this Skill so freely now.
After all, each person only has 50 points of Spiritual Energy, and his previous Spiritual Energy value was only a little over 400, which he used up easily.
Currently, his maximum Spiritual Energy Value is 1650 points. Compared to other Player, he is certainly among the top, if not the most outstanding.
"As long as it's not discovered, it's not considered a violation of the rules?"
Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, Young Feather's expression brightened.
"Then I'll sneak out of the bathroom by myself and get the food... I'm just kidding."
Seeing that the other three had all turned to look at him at the same time, Young Feather's lips twitched slightly.
"Let's start searching for food inside the building."
Bai Zhi stood up from the Sofa and exhaled.
"Strictly speaking, we have a high tolerance for error. After all, everyone has ten chances to break the rules. If you're careful, there shouldn't be any problems."
"Uh... there might be Zombie on other floors too, right?"
"So you should all go back to your rooms and prepare. See if there's anything you can use. Young Feather, you go back to your room first and find the elements of your character. It's okay to mess up occasionally, but if you keep messing up, be careful your points will be reduced to 8..."
With a slight pout, Bai Zhi took the lead and walked towards his room.
"In short, I hope you all remember one thing: we are all common now, and because we haven't been able to go out and exercise for two months, we are even weaker than common..."
As he spoke, Bai Zhi turned his head and glanced at them.
"Don't let yourself suddenly unleash a fireball or a Chain Lightning while you're fighting Zombie, or run into the Zombie horde with a Guan Dao and start a rampage..."
"Today is only the first day, and this is an exploration- Type Dungeon. I don't want to wake up in bed again."
