Lin Zhiluo currently had four free attribute points, but he was in no rush to allocate them.
Because he did not yet have the time to contemplate his future path.
Many terrifying hidden classes from before his rebirth had yet to be claimed by anyone, so he could completely choose a different class to start over.
Moreover, Lin Zhiluo's current attributes were absolutely sufficient.
Base Attributes: Strength: 12, Spirit: 17, Constitution: 11, Agility: 14
Compared to an ordinary person, these attributes were far superior.
However, he understood that he could not waste any more time; he had to clear out the surrounding zombies first.
This was because, during the night, a zombie's base attributes would increase by at least 50%.
The Doomsday Game defined nighttime as being from 8:00 PM to 6:00 AM the next morning.
In other words, in a little while, night would arrive.
He had to return to a safe place before eight o'clock.
One could see the insidious nature of the Doomsday Game from this.
At eight o'clock at night, zombies received a buff.
Yet, the game only descended at seven o'clock.
In a mere hour, how could anyone possibly have enough time to prepare?
Therefore, on this first night of the Doomsday Game, many players would meet their end.
Lin Zhiluo took his dagger and walked out of the room.
Before obtaining a proper weapon, he could only use this dagger, which had no attributes and was known as "white-tier equipment."
Outside the room was the narrow hallway of this hotel.
It was so narrow that it could accommodate at most two people walking side by side.
There were ten rooms in total on this floor.
Lin Zhiluo chose to deal with Room 210 behind him first.
His feet stepped on the old floorboards, creating a creaking sound.
Before he even reached the door of 210, his footsteps drew the attention of the entity inside the room.
The soundproofing was truly abysmal.
A low "roar" came from inside Room 210.
This was followed by the sound of rapid, uncoordinated footsteps approaching the door.
Lin Zhiluo chose to strike first, slamming his dagger directly into the door lock.
The rusty lock was nothing more than a decoration and was easily broken by the dagger.
Lin Zhiluo yanked the door open.
A zombie wearing a white tank top appeared.
The zombie's skin was blackened and its muscles were well-developed; it looked like someone who had done heavy manual labor while alive.
Lin Zhiluo first checked the zombie's attributes.
[Ordinary Zombie] Level: 1 Base Attributes: Strength: 12, Spirit: 5, Constitution: 13, Agility: 9
Fortunately, although its attributes were two or three points higher than an average zombie, Lin Zhiluo could still handle it with ease.
He swung his dagger in a graceful arc and took the initiative to attack the zombie.
The zombie's grayish-white eyes shifted, and it swiped its long nails toward Lin Zhiluo's face.
Watching the claws coming straight for his face, he nimbly bent his waist to dodge them.
Then, he lunged into the zombie's chest.
The distinct, foul stench of the zombie assaulted his nose.
However, Lin Zhiluo did not care in the slightest; the dagger in his hand stabbed straight and diagonally into the zombie's throat.
Perhaps it hadn't hit a vital point.
The zombie opened its blood-stained maw and lunged to bite Lin Zhiluo, who was within arm's reach.
Lin Zhiluo remained calm and twisted the dagger in his hand.
A black "Death" appeared above the zombie's head.
[Congratulations to player "Yazi" for successfully killing a zombie. You have gained 1 experience point and 1 gold coin.]
The system notification arrived right on time.
The zombie's corpse fell backward, crashing onto the floor and kicking up a cloud of dust.
Lin Zhiluo took a deep breath.
From the moment he struck until now, only two breaths of time had passed, yet he had already dealt with a zombie with relatively high attributes.
However, he was still not quite satisfied.
His performance had been too poor, which was why the first strike failed to kill the zombie instantly.
Leveling up from level 2 to level 3 required 10 experience points, so he still needed to take care of nine more level 1 zombies.
Kicking the zombie lying on the ground aside, Lin Zhiluo discovered that it had dropped a card.
Cards generally represented supplies.
Sure enough, after Lin Zhiluo picked up the card, it read: [A Medium-Rare Sirloin Steak].
[A Medium-Rare Sirloin Steak]: Selected from imported New Zealand beef sirloin, paired with a special exclusive sauce, giving you a wonderful dining experience.
The way to use the card was also very simple; after choosing to activate it, it would appear in your hand at the optimal temperature.
This supply card was still quite valuable at this stage.
However, once the shop opened later on, it would be sold for roughly 100 gold coins, becoming a commodity that the general public could afford.
Lin Zhiluo shoved the card into his storage space.
It wasn't time to eat yet.
He scanned Room 210.
Lin Zhiluo was pleasantly surprised to find a large cloth bag inside the room.
Inside the bag were some maintenance tools.
It seemed this zombie had been a repairman.
Lin Zhiluo shoved the tool bag into his storage space and took one of the hammers into his hand.
The dagger was relatively short, so this hammer could be used for mid-range attacks.
Only then did Lin Zhiluo leave Room 210 with satisfaction.
Room 210 was at the end of the hallway, where the emergency exit was completely sealed off by a large iron door.
Therefore, Lin Zhiluo headed toward the rooms in front.
Room 208, empty.
Room 207, also empty.
Lin Zhiluo felt a bit disappointed; why were there so few zombies?
Finally, just as he walked to the door of Room 206.
He heard the roar of zombies.
And it was two zombies roaring at the same time.
Beautiful, work has arrived.
Lin Zhiluo's eyes lit up, and he smashed the door lock open with a single hammer blow.
Then he kicked the door open and shouted, "Open up, vice squad, we're raiding for vice!"
It had to be said that before the apocalypse, Lin Zhiluo had been a man of few words.
During his ten years of life in the apocalypse in his previous life, he had always maintained a cold and ruthless state.
However, in this life, after killing Yao Jinghan with his own hands, his personality had gradually become more cheerful.
This might be a rebound in personality caused by being suppressed for too long.
This situation occurred quite easily in mental illnesses.
Patients often found themselves in a depressed state for two days, only to become manic a couple of days later.
The two zombies inside the room were dumbfounded.
I'm a zombie, for crying out loud, and you're still raiding for vice?
"Holy crap, it really is 'vice,' none of you are wearing any clothes."
The moment he opened the door, Lin Zhiluo was also a bit surprised; the two zombies that appeared were completely naked.
Then, he realized that this was a hotel of a "pink" nature.
That made it no surprise at all.
The two zombies were very angry at Lin Zhiluo for disturbing them.
The male zombie charged straight at him.
Lin Zhiluo glanced at it and couldn't help but say, "No way, brother, you're out here playing with something that small? Don't you feel shortchanged?"
The male zombie seemed to understand Lin Zhiluo's words and let out a roar at him.
Lin Zhiluo had already checked this zombie's attributes.
They were a full two points lower than the repairman zombie from just a moment ago; no wonder it was as small as an earthworm.
Lin Zhiluo swung his hammer directly toward the zombie's head.
"Thud."
A dull sound rang out.
The skull atop the zombie's head was smashed wide open.
At the same time, its body lost its balance.
Lin Zhiluo's other hand seized the opportunity, his dagger plunging into the zombie's neck.
"Death."
