"Lin, go plant the bombs!"

As he spoke, the man named Old Cui tossed Lin Feng a Remote-Controlled Sticky Bomb.

The vault door in this small town wasn't particularly sturdy. After planting three sticky bombs, Old Cui motioned for Lin Feng to back away.

Boom!

"Oh! Shit!"

"Okay, if you don't want that greasy middle-aged man outside getting riddled with bullets, get moving."

As he spoke, Old Cui took out a Travel Bag and began scooping up the cash in the vault.

Besides over ten million in cash, there was also a stack of gold bars in the vault. Seeing them, Lin Feng slipped them all into his Leather Backpack while Old Cui wasn't looking.

Good thing he'd brought the Leather Backpack. Otherwise, he really wouldn't have had an easy way to carry those fifty-odd kilograms of gold.

Who knew whether Lin Feng had a talent for this sort of thing or what.

He actually packed the money faster than a seasoned old hand like Old Cui.

Before long, the two had filled four large travel bags with cash.

"We can go now."

"Move, move, move!"

Lin Feng shouted after tossing the travel bags outside.

Fuck, this is such a rush. It was his first time robbing a bank, and Lin Feng felt more alert than he ever had in his life.

Just as the man in the suit had predicted, the cops hadn't arrived. Only now did Lin Feng belatedly realize that he could actually understand what they were saying!

These people had been speaking English the whole time. He had no idea how he could understand it, let alone speak it.

Wooo~~

"The damn FIB is here! Lin, catch! Blow their heads off!"

As he spoke, the man in the suit sitting in the passenger seat tossed Lin Feng an M249 SAW.

"Holy shit!!"

Lin Feng instantly perked up. He smashed out the rear windshield and opened fire on the cops pursuing them.

Although his accuracy was somewhat poor, with that kind of firepower, Lin Feng still managed to complete the system's mission.

Score five headshots.

But the bad news was that a helicopter had arrived too. Left with no choice, Lester Crest drove the car into the sewers.

"I've already stashed motorcycles here. We'll split up and meet at the Textile Factory."

After saying that, the man in the suit was the first to ride away on a motorcycle.

Once the others had all left, the elevator suddenly appeared in the sewer.

There were only a little over ten minutes left on the countdown. Even if Lin Feng wanted to do anything, there wasn't enough time, so he could only return to the elevator.

As the elevator doors slowly closed, this thrilling trip finally came to an end.

Although he had risked dying at any moment, Lin Feng hadn't felt the slightest fear. Even now, he was still excited.

Ding. Congratulations, host, on completing the mission. Your reward has been issued.

Soon, knowledge of Basic Firearms Proficiency appeared in Lin Feng's mind.

Although it was only basic, it was still a far cry from being a complete novice.

For example, he hadn't recognized the shotgun in his hands before, but now he identified it at a glance as an MP-133.

He could also disassemble and assemble firearms, maintain them, and perform simple repairs.

Finally, Lin Feng felt that his marksmanship had improved considerably as well, though he had no way to verify that yet.

When he went to the next floor, he could test his shooting.

Afterward, Lin Feng gave each of his guns a round of maintenance.

"Rawr!"

"I know, I know."

Lin Feng stood up and took a piece of dinosaur meat out of his Leather Backpack.

"Tsk, I wonder what this dinosaur meat tastes like."

There were still about forty kilograms of dinosaur meat in the backpack, enough to feed the little Velociraptor for over ten days.

Watching the little Velociraptor eat with such relish, Lin Feng honestly wanted to try some too.

It had been so long since he'd last sold some to that person who knew how to make crossbows, and that person was still fine. The dinosaur meat probably wasn't poisonous.

With that thought, Lin Feng cut off a large steak and began cooking it on the Induction Cooker.

Nearly two hours later, Lin Feng poked the steak with a knife.

"This... should be cooked, right?"

Somewhat uncertain, Lin Feng cut off a small piece and popped it into his mouth.

"Mm! It's cooked!"

It tasted pretty good and was very tender, with a texture somewhat like bullfrog meat.

It was just a shame he lacked seasonings. If he could make it spicy and numbing, it would taste amazing.

After eating and drinking his fill, Lin Feng checked the Infinite Water Pool again. No surprises had spawned in it today.

"All right, time for bed."

Lin Feng stroked the Velociraptor's head, then fell fast asleep.

Just as most of the survivors had finished their floors and were resting, the temperature in the elevators suddenly changed, plummeting from the twenties to below ten degrees in an instant.

Quite a few people were jolted awake by the cold, and Lin Feng was no exception.

Not long after the temperature dropped, he felt as though he had gone straight from summer into winter.

Only after opening the Chatroom did he discover that it wasn't just him. The temperature in everyone's elevators had dropped to nearly zero.

Wearing only a shirt, Lin Feng hurriedly moved the Induction Cooker beside his bed, added water, and turned it up to maximum heat.

This could provide him with some warmth. The blanket he'd obtained earlier came in handy too, and Lin Feng wrapped it around himself in layer after layer.

"Rawr!!"

"I nearly forgot about you."

Looking at the shivering Velociraptor, Lin Feng scooped it into his arms.

When it stood up, the little Velociraptor already reached Lin Feng's thigh.

Soon, thanks to the Induction Cooker, the elevator warmed up a little, and Lin Feng lowered the blanket.

The others weren't so lucky.

Apart from those who lived in cold regions year-round, practically everyone was wearing short sleeves, shirts, or the like.

They were suffering terribly now.

Meanwhile, supplies for keeping warm were being listed at high prices on the Exchange.

Even a blanket for warmth was listed for one gold coin.

[Fuck, I can't take it anymore. I'm starting a fire!]

[You above me, do you have a death wish?]

[Level-three elevators unlock a vent. Starting a fire isn't actually out of the question.]

[Exactly. You can try it if you're not afraid of suffocating.]

[By the way, does anyone else feel like the temperature is still dropping? After I woke up, the water in my bottle started getting ice crystals in it.]

[Don't joke about that. If the temperature drops any further, this really won't be fit for people to live in.]

[The temperature really is dropping. I got a thermometer on one of the floors earlier. It's two degrees in the elevator now. It was six not long ago.]

[Bro, stop. I'm seriously scared. I fucking came in wearing baggy shorts and a short-sleeved shirt. I'm practically dying now.]

Everyone in the Chatroom was discussing the sudden temperature drop, and Lin Feng also felt that it seemed to have grown even colder.

An hour later, the elevator warmed up, and Lin Feng breathed a sigh of relief. With this Induction Cooker, he didn't need to worry about sudden temperature drops.

PS: The M249 SAW was taken back after he finished using it.
