Dormitory 200 Seeks a Little Beauty!

The jumper was Zhang Yan from the eighth floor.

Before she died, she had asked for help in the chatroom several times, but no one helped her.

Yet her desperate leap did not draw any sympathy in the chatroom. Instead, it was met with a barrage of insults.

Some players were still outside searching for resources. By doing this, wasn't she screwing everyone over?

Xu Lang remained silent.

Beside him, Cao Yaxuan was awakened by the sound of the fall and the zombies' howls. After checking the chatroom messages, she said to Xu Lang, "Xu Lang, Zhang Yan jumped!"

"I know." Xu Lang nodded faintly.

Cao Yaxuan pursed her lips. "Xu Lang, a lot of people saw that my room number is the same as yours. They're asking what's going on."

"Say whatever you want." Xu Lang perfunctorily replied to Cao Yaxuan while typing a message in the chatroom.

"Okay." Cao Yaxuan nodded.

She did not mention the friends-with-benefits arrangement between herself and Xu Lang, only saying that when the game started, she happened to be in Xu Lang's room.

[200 Xu Lang: Buying a weapon. Offering ten cups of purified water, one liter total.]

[24 Zhou Tao: Where did you get so much water? Stop bluffing.]

[112 Li Ming: Holy shit, it's real. Xu Lang put it up on the auction house.]

[32 Ye Fan: You've been hiding your strength, Brother Lang!]

[24 Zhou Tao: No one will trade with you. Weapons are the most valuable thing right now and will definitely be useful later. Whoever has weapons, I'll trade supplies too.]

Xu Lang really did not want to speak in the chatroom, precisely because he was afraid of situations like this. But no one was selling weapons on the trading site, so he could only call out in the chatroom.

[200 Xu Lang: @Zhou Tao, say one more damn word, and when you go downstairs tomorrow, I'll keep my eyes on you.]

Dorm Room 24.

"Fuck! Does he really think the supplies I found won't last me until the game ends?!" Zhou Tao's face darkened as he slammed his fist into the bed.

Just then, several friends sent him private messages. They were all low-level players who had scavenged supplies with him today.

Without the high-level players knowing, these people had added one another as friends and developed a certain tacit understanding.

Every private message told Zhou Tao not to act impulsively.

They still wanted to keep enjoying the benefits. If the high-level players really disrupted things, it would be practically like losing their mothers.

"The group saved your ass!"

Fuming, Zhou Tao chose to back down.

After shutting Zhou Tao down, Xu Lang began watching for friend requests.

Soon, one friend request caught his attention.

[12 Wang Zhiwei: I have a baseball bat. Do you want to trade for it?]

Xu Lang accepted the friend request, and the other party sent over the item information.

[Baseball Bat]

[Type: Weapon]

[Level: 1]

[Damage: 8]

[Durability: 14/14]

[Can be dismantled into: Birch Wood x9]

[Upgrade Requirement: 50 Nightmare Coins]

[Description: Thump thump!]

[12 Wang Zhiwei: Weapons are scarcer than food right now, and mine is even a level 1 weapon, so I want two liters of water. No problem, right?]

[200 Xu Lang: With a weapon in hand, it should be easier for you to look for resources tomorrow. Why trade it away?]

[12 Wang Zhiwei: This is all I found today. My girlfriend is still on the eighth floor, and I want to bring her something to drink. Besides, if I give it to you, you probably won't give it to the people on the first or second floors, right?]

This Wang Zhiwei from Room 12 loved his girlfriend, but he was not a complete fool. He knew that giving a weapon to someone in the same group would increase the competition.

[200 Xu Lang: Deal.]

[12 Wang Zhiwei: Oh, and here's some extra information. You've played online games before, right? A lot of resource points are guarded by major guilds. Ordinary people die if they get close. Even if you can come down, you won't be able to get any supplies.]

Xu Lang's heart tightened, then quickly returned to calm.

This information seemed useless to him.

Anyway, all he had to do was lie back and grow stronger!

Even so, Xu Lang prepared an extra cup of water.

The trade window opened. The stack of twenty-one paper cups in his inventory vanished, replaced by a baseball bat.

Xu Lang took out the baseball bat and swung it twice. Then he sent another message in the chatroom.

With his safety guaranteed, he could begin carrying out the next step of his plan.

A dormitory could have two tenants, after all!

[200 Xu Lang: 2 liters of water. Dorm 200 needs a cute girl. One tenant slot still open. (Image)]

[88 Cao Bin: Boss 866, you're not even pretending anymore.]

[112 Wu Leiting: Brother Lang, Father Lang, Grandpa Lang, please spare me some supplies!]

[89 Zhou Li: Xu Lang, where did you get so much water? Aren't you with Cao Yaxuan?]

[9 Lin Han: Who cares who he's with? Someone like him wouldn't survive even if he were with Wonder Woman!]

[48 Qin Yun: Why does someone like this have such amazing resources?!]

[78 Zhao Juan: Xu Lang, add me as a friend. I can't come in person, but I can send you voice messages.]

[5 Zhu Yan: Bro, do you know how hard it is to scavenge supplies outside? Don't be stupid.]

[186 Wu Huihui: @Zhu Yan, who the hell are you calling "bro"? Are you oppressing women?]

One stone stirred up a thousand waves.

Many people who rarely spoke all surfaced, flooding the chatroom with messages.

At the same time, countless people sent Xu Lang friend requests.

Dorm 5.

After being cursed at, Zhu Yan's face darkened.

In Dorm 1, Jin Xin laughed like a pig.

"Damn, there really are freaks like this!" As he mocked Xu Lang's stupidity with his friends on the first and second floors, he replied to messages from some female students.

A few female students had already sent him private photos, and quite a few had even called him husband.

To save face, he gave them a tiny bit of supplies.

Of course, only a tiny bit.

Still, he believed what he was doing was a noble act of salvation, completely different from an idiot like Xu Lang.

Even if I'm lustful, my lust is classier than yours!

Asking for women directly? Pah, how crude!

But then again, Liu Qianqian on the fourth floor wanted to be his girlfriend.

Was there any way to get her downstairs?

Living alone in this tiny dorm really was lonely.

Wasn't that how many apocalypse novels went?

Power, women, killing whoever you wanted, sleeping with whoever you wanted.

Xu Lang had not recruited a second cute girl before because he was worried that a cute girl might come with some big strong guy later.

Now that he had a weapon, even if there was a big strong guy, he was not particularly afraid.

A little risk was worth taking.

However, comfort seemed to be related to his rating of women.

For example, if Cao Yaxuan took off her stockings, the comfort level would decrease. Odors and dirt would likewise lower the comfort level.

"Xu Lang, what did you say in the chatroom? What do you mean, recruiting a cute girl?" Cao Yaxuan glared at Xu Lang angrily.

Though they had only known each other for a short time, she had genuinely started to feel as if Xu Lang were her boyfriend.

Yet Xu Lang had actually done something like this.

"You're such a cold person," Xu Lang scolded.

"What did I do?" Cao Yaxuan trembled with anger.

"Don't you want to help your classmates? Can you bear to watch them starve to death? How can you be so cruel?"

Upon hearing that, Cao Yaxuan did not joke around with Xu Lang. Instead, she said coldly, "Xu Lang, don't think I'm tied to you for good!"

Xu Lang showed no mercy. "If you don't want to stay, then leave. But don't tell me you still think this is a society ruled by law, where you can leave and take half my property."

Cao Yaxuan was indeed important, but if she could not distinguish priorities, then her value had to be reassessed.

Hearing this, Cao Yaxuan's expression stiffened, and she calmed down somewhat.

"Come over here. I'll count to three!" Xu Lang stood with his hands on his hips. "Three... two..."

"I'm coming, okay? Can't you be a little nicer to me? Why are you being so fierce?"
