It was obvious that although his subjective experience had been very long, only a moment had passed in the real world!

Li Ke stood up with some difficulty, his head still spinning. Clearly, he wouldn't recover as quickly as Kelly.

He felt that this dizziness wouldn't go away for at least half a day.

This made him realize something once again.

Even with the enhancement of skill points, the gap between him and these true transcendents was still very large.

Chapter 16: The Woman Who Brings Monsters

"Huff..."

After rubbing his temples again, Li Ke's head finally felt a little better, but he felt his head become extremely hot. Clearly, this was definitely caused by that Skill book.

"Am I going to die young?"

Li Ke was a little worried, but if it happened again, he would still use it without hesitation.

The reason was simple: now, as long as he closed his eyes, he could easily Perception the direction of the wind around him, as well as everything within a three-meter radius.

This feeling was quite wonderful, and the more movement something made, the easier it was to sense.

But it wasn't omnipotent. To be precise, Li Ke had only just learned this Skill. He could sense that there seemed to be something around him, and when something was approaching quickly, he could sense it faster by closing his eyes.

It was very vague, just a feeling.

Li Ke didn't know what kind of boost this Skill gave to someone like Kelly, who already had extremely high Perception abilities, but for him, it was very powerful.

Because he felt that after learning this Skill book, his reactions were a bit faster, especially when he closed his eyes and focused on Perception, his reaction speed was even faster.

If he put *skill point*s into Agility now, his speed should become quite fast.

However, all of this came from the System of the Seven Days to Die world, which meant that others could also obtain it, and become even stronger than him.

This made Li Ke very melancholy, and he couldn't help but open his System panel.

"So, what's the use of my own cheat?"

His System seemed to be useless, except for telling him that this was a struggle for dimensional control, it didn't say anything else.

And the Seven Days to Die Dimension Lord of the 7 Days to Die World among the two *Skill*s also came from this world.

He didn't know if the Endless Traveler came from this world either. In short, it was a useful thing, but it was useless right now.

However...

Level: 1. Seven Days to Die World Dimension Lord (32%). Endless Traveler LV1 (35%). Energy: 495.

"It's actually increased to 32%, but I don't feel anything at all. And how do I level up this Level 1? If it's killing monsters, then haven't I killed enough zombies to level up even once?"

Li Ke glanced at the progress bar of the Dimension Lord of the 7 Days to Die World, and clicked his tongue in amazement. He was just living here and surviving the horde, could this also be considered exploring the dimension?

Or was this world like he thought, with the difficulty increasing?

And he was also very concerned about that Level 1. He really didn't understand how he could raise this level. He had a premonition that as long as he could raise the level on this System panel, he would be able to obtain the extraordinary power he had dreamed of.

"What a bunch of mysteries."

Shaking his head, Li Ke stopped thinking about these questions and looked at Kelly.

Watching Kelly take out all kinds of outrageous things from her Inventory one after another, Li Ke was really envious of Kelly's strong luck, but if Kelly didn't have this level of strong luck, she probably wouldn't be able to survive in that dangerous no man's land.

He stopped looking at Kelly, who was like she was finding treasure, and walked towards the direction where Tsunade was.

When Li Ke found Tsunade, she was using *Steel Pillar*s and System blocks to build near their base. She didn't add anything else to the already perfect suspended house, but started to build a high wall five meters outside the suspended square, wanting to wrap their house.

This was something only Tsunade could easily do, because only she didn't have to worry about falling down.

Tsunade was doing it very quickly. When Li Ke came here, she had already built the System framework. After that, she only needed to put the *Steel Pillar*s on one by one to create a tight fortress. Although it would not be able to stop the sea of corpses in the end, it could delay the time for the zombies to invade their faces.

Seeing Li Ke coming, Tsunade stopped, jumped to his side, pointed to the Merchant's territory where the System block could not exist, and then spoke.

"I plan to use super strength to nail some steel plates on it in one go and build it directly to the Merchant's territory, and then directly cover it for you. In this way, those zombies will not be able to directly press on this suspended house, the psychological pressure will be much less, and the defense line will be much more stable, and you don't have to worry about the top being directly attacked."

Tsunade was a little sighing, she was still afraid that the house would fall that day... In fact, Li Ke and the others were also afraid of this, so Tsunade planned to solve this problem.

The underground base passage that had been dug through before was repaired by her again, and it was repaired by directly blocking it.

In her vision, zombies must dig through three layers of steel plates to threaten their suspended house and her newly dug underground fortifications.

"Well, thank you, after all, no one knows what will happen next time."

Li Ke looked at the foundation laid by Tsunade and couldn't help but nod. However, just as he was about to say something, a feeling that he had never felt before suddenly enveloped his whole body, making him understand one thing.

Danger!

Li Ke immediately reacted and looked at the place where he felt uneasy. The next moment, he saw a vulture that seemed to have no skin or fur rushing over, its sharp claws grabbing towards his eyes!

Almost subconsciously, Li Ke directly took out a machine gun from his Inventory, instantly turning the vulture into minced meat, but this was not the end. Li Ke could see very clearly that in the distance, a large shadow floated up from the forest and began to advance towards this side!

Not only that, but the dark clouds in the sky looked strange too!

After the army of zombies, was it going to be an army of vultures?!

Without hesitation, Li Ke picked up Tsunade, who had collapsed on the ground, and shouted to the side.

"Kelly, come back quickly!! Enemy attack!"

After saying that, Li Ke carried Tsunade and rushed towards the entrance of their suspended house. Just as he was about to take Tsunade back and then go to meet Kelly, the roar of an engine suddenly sounded from behind him.

Before he could react, Kelly drove a motorcycle past him!

That's right! A motorcycle!

Li Ke saw it very clearly! A motorcycle with a very wasteland-esque style!

Wait, you can actually drive this thing?!

Li Ke opened his mouth in surprise. The next moment, Kelly, who had landed in front of him, pulled out two machine guns and started shooting at Li Ke's back. Li Ke didn't even need to look to know that a large group of vultures was attacking!

"Get inside!"

Kelly covered Li Ke as he carried Tsunade into the house, and then immediately closed the door. Li Ke put Tsunade down and quickly went to block the firing port, but...

He saw a red meteor falling not far from them, revealing a panting Rias and a bewildered Lux inside.

And following them were countless zombie avian monsters.

Clearly, Rias had come for help.

Chapter 17: Rias's Request

"This is really a big gift!"

Li Ke couldn't help but want to complain. These two girls left clean and tidy, and then came back to give them such a big surprise. He really didn't know what to say.

But now there was a very real problem in front of him.

"Should I save them?"

Li Ke gripped the M60 that Kelly had scavenged. The thick gun body undoubtedly gave him a sense of security, but rushing directly down there would be no different from suicide.

His hesitation made Kelly, who was also blocking the firing port, ask curiously.

"Looks like you want to save them?"

"Yeah, after all, they're powerful. And no matter what, these monsters are already here. Unless it's a blood moon, who knows if they'll leave or disappear."

Li Ke took out various clothes from the side and threw them to Kelly. Although these things weren't anything good, they could still block the birds a bit.

"The most important thing is that their Power is strong and they can do a lot of things... but I can go out myself. You cover me from here."

Li Ke put on the clothes as he walked towards the door, but Kelly shook her head and retorted.

"Are you serious? My strength is much higher than yours? And no matter what, you're very special."

Li Ke nodded. Since he was the one asking to save people, Kelly had no obligation to take the risk. Moreover, if he acted quickly now, the danger wouldn't be too great.

Delaying it, on the other hand, would be very dangerous.

"Tsunade needs someone to protect her, and if something unexpected happens, having you here won't lead to despair."

Kelly snorted and threw a bag to Li Ke.

"The motorcycle is inside. You know how to use it."

Li Ke didn't waste words. Every bit of time was precious at this moment.

Li Ke rushed out of the door, instantly took out the motorcycle from the small package, and then turned around and got on the motorcycle.

Kelly, who was covering him from behind, quickly opened fire and shot down the zombie birds above Li Ke's head one by one.

That's right, in just this short amount of time, a lot of zombie birds had appeared here too!

Li Ke twisted the throttle and sped towards the dirt slope. This was where they usually went up and down this big pit. It was very steep, but Li Ke's current Power allowed him to easily control this vehicle.

Rias and Lux, who had fallen to the ground, weren't idle either. Although Rias's magic was about to run out, she still barely managed to put up a shield to prevent them from being directly harmed by the crows.

Lux tried her best to carry Rias's full body on her back, constantly moving towards Li Ke's side.

However, although she was trying hard, Lux, who didn't have the same strong physique as her brother, couldn't quickly get away from the danger.

But fortunately, Li Ke was here.

Li Ke, who was charging over, finally reached the two of them before the dense swarm of zombie birds arrived, but he also felt a chill run down his spine.

Those zombie birds were already very close. It could be said that if they delayed any longer, these birds would undoubtedly rush over and kill them all!

But now, it was too late to drive them back!

He looked at the zombie birds constantly rushing over from all directions, and then looked at the panting Lux and Rias, and shouted to Kelly above.

"Kelly! Go back into the house! Protect you and Tsunade! I have my own way!"

Kelly was obviously stunned for a moment, but she still followed Li Ke's orders and returned to the house.

"Don't die! I'll try my best to support you!"

Then, the suspended door closed, and a large number of sparks appeared at the firing port.

Li Ke didn't waste any time. He directly pulled out his Iron Shovel and started digging into the ground below. Under the astonished gazes of Rias and Lux, he quickly dug a pit as tall as a person!

"This..."

Lux opened her mouth in surprise, while Rias understood what Li Ke meant.

Li Ke glanced at the flock of zombies that were already within a hundred meters, listening to the roars and cries that seemed to carry into the sky. He yelled at Rias and Lux.

"Jump in quickly!"

Lux helped Rias jump in, and the moment they jumped down, Li Ke retrieved his motorcycle. He then pulled out a small bag again, and as soon as he landed, he opened the bag and took out a hollow Steel Block.

Watching the block fall to the ground and the approaching flock of zombie monster birds, Li Ke immediately raised the Steel Block and jumped into the pit.

Instantly, the pit was filled with the three of them, and half of a Steel Block appeared on the ground above.

"Good thing I maxed out my Power when I was fighting Tsunade..."

Li Ke, who had added points to his Power in order to defeat Tsunade, struggled to support the hollow Steel Block, but still felt like he was supporting a hundred-kilogram person with both hands.

The excessive weight almost made him fall to the ground, smashing the at least three-ton block onto the two girls' heads.

However, he still managed to hold on, thanks to the blessing of the Seven Days to Die System, which allowed him to withstand something he theoretically couldn't.

Listening to the cries of countless zombie-birds outside, and the continuous gunfire from Kelly, Li Ke didn't stop his actions in the darkness, because the thin layer of soil outside couldn't support them at all. They had to go further down!

With one hand supporting the Steel Block, Li Ke quickly pulled out the shovel and dug under their feet. Then, the three of them quickly fell a little, forcing Li Ke to quickly raise his right hand to steady the block.

But he couldn't help but complain.

"You guys really know how to make trouble for people! Now, squat down!"

Taking a deep breath, after Lux and Rias obediently squatted down, Li Ke quickly adjusted the shape of the frame in his Inventory, selected a crossbeam, and installed it above their heads. He placed the hollow Steel Block on the System frame, and only then did he relax and release his hands.

However, this wasn't the end. Li Ke dug down a little more, then dug a pit horizontally, and sealed it with the same kind of Steel Block. Only then did he relax, no longer worrying about being directly attacked by the zombie strange bird.
