Modu Gymnasium.

This could be considered one of the iconic landmarks of Modu.

The setting within the Doomsday Game dictates that special circumstances appear in a city's iconic landmarks.

For instance, there might be instances.

For instance, there might be hidden merchant robots.

For instance, there might be wild treasure chests.

As far as Lin Zhiluo knew, there was a silver-tier wild treasure chest inside this Modu Gymnasium.

The reason it is called a wild treasure chest is simple.

It means it is scattered somewhere, and anyone can open it.

Correspondingly, there are boss treasure chests, which are chests that only drop after killing a boss.

Although they have a higher value compared to wild treasure chests, they are very difficult to obtain.

However, even a Silver Treasure Chest guarantees a silver-tier piece of equipment or item, along with other miscellaneous goods.

Given Lin Zhiluo's current situation, obtaining a piece of silver equipment would definitely allow his strength to advance by leaps and bounds.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhiluo prepared to find a side entrance to enter the gymnasium.

The main entrance of the gymnasium was out of the question; there were at least dozens of zombies guarding the door.

At this moment, the Doomsday Game Cheat System, which had been functioning all along but hadn't made an appearance in a while, suddenly emitted a notification sound.

"Ding, detected that the host is about to enter 'Modu Gymnasium'."

"Ding, the environment of Modu Gymnasium meets the mission requirements."

"Ding, hereby issuing the mission 'One Against A Hundred'."

[One Against A Hundred]: An excellent host needs to demonstrate his strength now. Please kill one hundred zombies inside Modu Gymnasium, any level.

Mission Requirements: 0/100

Mission Rewards: Draw one random common cheat, one bronze-tier piece of equipment.

Mission Time Limit: 24 hours

"Ding, does the host wish to accept the mission?"

Lin Zhiluo frowned.

One hundred zombies!

As time reached the afternoon of the second day of the Doomsday Game, most zombies had already reached level 2.

Their strength had improved somewhat compared to level 1.

Not to mention that this was a vast, open space like a gymnasium.

Any large movement would attract a massive number of zombies.

Lin Zhiluo's original plan was to bypass areas with large numbers of zombies and use his personal stealth to open the treasure chest.

But with this sudden mission...

Fortunately, the mission time limit was a full day, which was quite sufficient.

However, to be safe, Lin Zhiluo still asked: "If I don't accept the mission, or if the mission fails, what are the penalties?"

"Ding, please rest assured, host. The existence of the Cheat System is to provide the host with a better gaming experience and let the host enjoy the process of the game."

"Ding, therefore, there will be no penalties for not accepting the mission or failing the mission. On the contrary, the host will be given a consolation gift package of 100 gold coins."

Holy crap, Lin Zhiluo was shocked.

This really was bringing a better gaming experience.

Even refusing a mission could result in a consolation gift package.

He knew so many locations that could trigger missions.

If he just kept refusing missions, he could easily earn gold coins until his pockets were overflowing.

Thinking of this, Lin Zhiluo decisively accepted the mission.

Completing the mission would allow him to draw a common cheat and a bronze-tier piece of equipment.

Lin Zhiluo had already seen the power of a super cheat, which could increase a 1% drop rate to 100%.

If you can't find the book title, you can try searching for the author; perhaps it just changed its name!

Could a common cheat make every zombie drop two items instead of one?

Even if the mission failed, he wouldn't lose anything; he was originally here to open the Silver Treasure Chest, and he could still earn a free hundred gold coins.

"Ding, mission 'One Against A Hundred' has been accepted. Wishing the host a successful completion of the mission."

After accepting the mission, Lin Zhiluo did not rush into the gymnasium.

Instead, he observed the internal structural diagram of the gymnasium at the entrance and began to formulate a strategy in his mind.

"Based on my memory, the Silver Treasure Chest should be in the warehouse on the third floor."

"But there isn't nearly enough time today, so I'll just finish a portion of the zombie clearing mission for now."

"I'll enter through the side door, then fight my way up the first floor along the emergency stairwell."

"By the time I reach the infirmary on the second floor, it should be around eight o'clock, when night falls."

"There are beds in the infirmary, so I'll sleep there for the night and continue fighting upward the next day."

"I should be able to reach the third-floor warehouse by noon the next day, open the chest, jump down along the edge of the building, and make a clean getaway."

After just one look at the map, Lin Zhiluo had already arranged all his routes and actions.

Once everything was planned, he didn't want to waste any more time, and his sharp Tang Dao appeared directly in his hand.

He then gently pried open the lock on the side door behind the gymnasium and pushed it open.

A zombie with a face covered in blood was standing straight behind the door.

Lin Zhiluo, who was just about to assess the situation after pushing the door open, was stunned.

Damn, what a coincidence, a perfect start!

What are you doing just hanging around the back door of the gym, you zombie?

Man and zombie stared at each other, wide-eyed.

The zombie, having reacted, opened its mouth, preparing to let out a roar.

Lin Zhiluo struck decisively.

Before the zombie could make a sound, he thrust the tip of his Tang Dao into its open mouth.

The sharp blade pierced straight through the zombie's mouth and out the back of its neck.

This robbed the zombie of any chance to make a sound.

Next, Lin Zhiluo pulled out the hammer he hadn't discarded earlier with his other hand.

He slammed the hammer right into the zombie's face.

Blood splattered everywhere.

With that, the zombie was completely deprived of the ability to roar.

Lin Zhiluo pulled out the Tang Dao and finished off the zombie hiding at the back door with a casual slash.

"Death" appeared.

"Phew, that was close. If it had managed to roar, I wouldn't have been prepared for anything and would have had to make a strategic retreat," Lin Zhiluo sighed in relief.

"But this zombie was worth it. I gave it a special examination with my Tang Dao—that would cost money at a hospital."

"I even gave it a facial reconstruction with a forty-dollar hammer; that costs money too."

Lin Zhiluo thought happily.

The fallen zombie never expected that even after being killed, it would still end up owing a mountain of debt.

However, the fallen zombie did make a contribution.

Because an item glowing with a cyan light appeared beneath it.

Lin Zhiluo kicked the zombie's corpse aside and picked up the item.

[Super Flashbang]: A one-time Bronze-level item that releases a dazzling white light, causing anyone who sees it to enter a "blinded" state. The duration of blindness is determined by the length of exposure to the light and sensitivity to it.

Not bad, this is a good item too!

For tomorrow night's infiltration of the Li Family Manor, this is an absolute "crowd control" item.

Lin Zhiluo was very satisfied as he tucked the Super Flashbang into his storage space.

This back door of the gymnasium was essentially a small storage room.

To truly enter the main building, he still needed to open the inner door of this storage room.

Lin Zhiluo felt around the zombie's waist and, sure enough, fished out a key.
