The door to the badminton hall was pushed open.

Lin Zhiluo walked out.

Perhaps he had exhausted his luck for the day by finding so many good items earlier.

The dozen or so zombies inside the badminton hall had dropped nothing but Supply Cards.

The only usable item that dropped was a single bottle of Stamina Potion.

Lin Zhiluo checked his kill count.

It still wasn't enough.

He was still a dozen zombies short of completing the mission.

Not only that, he was also just over a hundred experience points away from successfully reaching level eight.

Lin Zhiluo rested for a moment.

Then, he headed toward the tennis hall located directly across from the badminton hall.

He pushed open the door to the tennis hall.

He counted about 20 zombies inside.

This was acceptable; the quantity was sufficient.

Lin Zhiluo locked the door to the tennis hall behind him.

The zombies inside were about to meet their end.

"Ding, the host has successfully killed 100 zombies within the Modu Gymnasium, completing the mission 'One Against a Hundred'."

"Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining the mission reward: a random draw for one common Golden Finger and one Bronze-tier piece of equipment."

"Ding, does the host wish to claim the mission rewards now?"

"Wait a moment," Lin Zhiluo said.

There were still five zombies left in front of him.

He would deal with these zombies first.

He was quite looking forward to seeing what kind of Golden Finger and equipment he would draw.

Therefore, he held nothing back.

Whirlwind Slash and Explosive Dual Slash.

He unleashed the two skills in turns.

He ended the lives of the remaining five zombies instantly.

Releasing skills consumed a fair amount of mental energy.

However, Lin Zhiluo's mental energy attribute was already quite high.

Even after using each skill twice, he still had plenty of mental energy remaining.

After killing the zombies, he didn't even bother to pick up the loot they dropped.

Instead, he opened the Golden Finger System right where he stood.

"Draw, how do I draw?" Lin Zhiluo asked.

"Ding, which reward does the host intend to draw first?"

"Let's draw the equipment first. I'll get the equipment out of the way and save all my luck for the Golden Finger draw," Lin Zhiluo said.

This was a habit of his.

He was accustomed to saving the most important and best things for last.

He didn't know about others, but for him, this order usually yielded good results.

"Ding, currently drawing Bronze-tier equipment."

"Ding, congratulations to the player for obtaining Bronze-tier equipment: Ring of Vampirism."

[Ring of Vampirism]: Bronze-tier equipment, an evil ring capable of absorbing the enemy's stamina during combat.

Attributes: Strength +1, Constitution +1

Ability: 5% of the damage dealt to enemies can be converted into stamina and transferred into the user's body through their weapon.

At first, upon seeing that it was a ring, Lin Zhiluo felt very disappointed.

After all, one could only wear one ring at a time.

Since he already possessed the Ring of Nightfall, he wasn't currently lacking in ring-type equipment.

Although the attributes of the Ring of Nightfall weren't particularly great either.

But he never expected that this Ring of Vampirism would possess such a rare attribute.

"Absorbing damage and converting it into one's own stamina."

In Lin Zhiluo's previous life, this attribute was incredibly precious.

Even many people who reached the War God level still wore gold-tier equipment that came with stamina-draining abilities.

There was no helping it; it was just too good.

Those War God level individuals were already powerful, and their skills dealt massive damage.

During a battle, they could unleash a set of area-of-effect skills against a horde of zombies.

They could easily recover a significant amount of stamina through this attribute and then dive right back into the fight.

In short, this was an extremely useful effect that helped sustain one's combat endurance.

Therefore, Lin Zhiluo did not hesitate.

He took off the Ring of Nightfall and put on the Ring of Vampirism.

Although he lost a bit of spirit, gaining a point in strength and constitution was quite a good deal.

At this very moment, Lin Zhiluo suddenly became a bit worried.

What if I used up all my good luck from the draw to get the Ring of Vampirism?

What if the Golden Finger I draw next turns out to be bad?

"Ding, please rest assured, Host. Every Golden Finger among the common ones basically possesses practical effects and can provide great help to the Host."

"Fine, I trust you. Give me the Golden Finger draw," Lin Zhiluo said.

"Ding, drawing a common Golden Finger."

"Ding, congratulations to the Host for drawing the common Golden Finger: 'Auto-Pickup LV1'."

Lin Zhiluo's breathing suddenly grew heavy.

Auto-Pickup!

Could this Auto-Pickup be exactly what he imagined it to be?

He hurriedly checked the attributes of Auto-Pickup.

[Auto-Pickup LV1]: Can pick up items dropped by zombies killed by the Host and place them into the storage space. The range is within a 0.5-meter radius of the Host. (If the remaining space in the storage is insufficient, it will be unable to continue picking up items.)

Holy crap!

Holy crap!

Holy crap!

It's like a cow traveling to the South Pole—it's absolutely legendary!!!

Even though Lin Zhiluo had already experienced the Golden Finger System modifying drop rates and changing the Doomsday Game's missions, the common Golden Finger displayed by the system still gave him a shock.

Being able to automatically pick up items he dropped.

What kind of concept was this?

He no longer needed to waste energy cleaning up the battlefield.

He no longer needed to guard against others stealing the fruits of his labor.

As long as the items were dropped by him, they would all go straight into his storage space.

From now on, he could farm zombies while enjoying a 100% drop rate, all while continuously collecting supplies.

The Golden Finger System truly lived up to its name!

Lin Zhiluo had previously been worried that with such a high drop rate, he should try to avoid killing zombies in front of others.

After all, who wouldn't have wild thoughts if they saw the outrageous sight of a zombie dropping an item every single time it was killed?

Now, it was perfect; after he killed a zombie, the items would enter his storage space without anyone noticing.

Who could possibly see that?

The only thing that left Lin Zhiluo a bit confused was what the "LV1" meant.

"System, is this LV1 the level of the common Golden Finger?" Lin Zhiluo asked.

"Ding, that is correct. LV1 represents the level of the Auto-Pickup common Golden Finger. The Host can draw Auto-Pickup again through future common Golden Finger opportunities to increase its level."

"And if the level increases, what effect does it have?" Lin Zhiluo asked.

"Ding, increasing the Auto-Pickup level will expand the range of the Auto-Pickup and may even provide other auxiliary effects."

It could even increase the range?

That is truly insane!

No, Lin Zhiluo was hooked.

"Are there any more missions? Hurry up and give me a few more missions; I want to keep drawing," Lin Zhiluo negotiated.

"Ding, the Golden Finger System's missions are triggered randomly based on the Host's environment, status, and events. Please keep a calm mindset, do not be overly concerned, and enjoy the Doomsday Game in a relaxed and happy manner."

Fine.

Lin Zhiluo was just saying that offhandedly.

Such a thing was impossible to begin with.

As for the common cheat he had drawn the first time, Lin Zhiluo expressed that he was very satisfied.

At the same time, he began to look forward to the other cheats even more.

He wondered what kind of effects the other cheats would have?

Furthermore, once he reached level ten, he would have another chance to draw a super cheat.

The previous ability, Absolute Drop Rate, was already so terrifying.

By then, he would likely obtain an even more heaven-defying cheat!

Having obtained a new ability, his heart itched to try it out.

Lin Zhiluo walked toward the zombies he had just killed.

He still hadn't collected the items they had just dropped.
