Chapter 93: Cultivating One’s Character
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the afternoon, the prison’s door opened.
The truck struggled to bypass the layers of logs in the prison square and finally stopped in front of Building No. 3.
After opening the door, Chen Yu jumped out of the truck.
He had already seen the mountain of logs in the prison.
There was nothing he could do. The entire prison square was filled with logs. It was hard not to see them!
Chen Yu even saw a few players carrying logs to the prison square.
No way! Must it be so exaggerated?
Chen Yu muttered to himself and turned around silently.
He looked at Fang Heng in the driver’s seat with a strange expression.
Was this Prison No. 507?
Why did he feel like he was in a large logging base?
He thought, “Also, didn’t you say that it was difficult to obtain wood resources?”
“Why do I feel that your logs are just like free wood?”
“How on earth did you do it?”
Liu Wei, who had worked hard for an entire day and had moved logs for an entire day, similarly looked at Fang Heng and the federation players with a puzzled gaze.
What was the situation with leader Fang Heng?
Why were there so many people from the federation all of a sudden?
Could it be that... They were also here to help pick up logs?
“It’s alright, Brother. These are all friends from the federation who are here to help. You guys can continue with your work. I’ll give all of you a day off tomorrow and rest for a day. We’ll continue the day after tomorrow!”
Fang Heng called out to Liu Wei. As he spoke, he extended his hand and patted Chen Yu on the shoulder, bringing him to a corner at the side.
Only then did Chen Yu realize that there was actually a huge pile of wooden planks in the corner of the prison.
The number was around seven to eight thousand.
If it was in the past, Chen Yu would have been shocked by the number of wooden planks.
But now, he felt that it was within reason.
After all, the entire prison square was filled with logs.
It would be abnormal if there were no wooden planks.
“I’m not lying to you, right? All the wooden planks that we made are here.”
“The wooden planks are too heavy, and it’s too troublesome to transport them. If it’s convenient, it’s best if your federation sends someone to collect them personally. At most, it’ll cost a little less. What do you think?”
“Uh...”
Chen Yu scratched his head. “Alright, I’ll contact my superior.”
“Hahaha, then I’ll leave this matter to you. Come, I’ll show you around the prison.”
Fang Heng led Chen Yu’s team to take a detailed tour of the prison’s Building No. 3.
Including Chen Yu, the entire team was shocked.
A single room, three luxurious meals and a food buffet.
NPCs were responsible for cleaning the building all day long, and there was even electricity supply every night!
What kind of treatment was this?
Even for the powerful federation, they were still struggling to maintain their daily food and clothing.
They were often faced with a shortage of resources and needed to personally go out to collect food.
Like his other teammates, Chen Yu was extremely shocked.
Looking at the prison as a whole, the only thing that was lacking was its defense.
Chen Yu noticed it when he arrived.
In comparison, the prison’s defense was not strong.
There was only one NPC guarding the prison’s sentry tower.
If it was the federation, they would definitely send a small team to guard the sentry tower 24 hours a day and lay a circle of wooden traps around the perimeter.
After all, the other party was only a player with the support of the company.
To be able to do this was already very impressive.
Chen Yu secretly calculated in his heart.
He decided that after he returned, he must seriously report this matter to his superiors.
He must properly rope in Phoenix Sound Gaming Company and Fang Heng!
After going around in circles, Fang Heng brought everyone back to the basement.
Chen Yu was alerted when he saw a “Do Not Enter” sign on a reinforced wooden door.
“Fang Heng, what’s in this room?”
“Oh, it’s a warehouse I opened for storage.”
“Can we go in and take a look?”
“But, I suggest you take a look at the door. Don’t get too close.”
As Fang Heng spoke, he pushed open the shelter’s wooden door.
Chen Yu was confused.
He stood at the door and looked into the room.
The room was very spacious.
He immediately saw the potted plants in the corner.
“This...”
Chen Yu’s face turned pale. He turned his head and looked at Fang Heng in shock.
“What is this?”
“Ha, I’m sorry. It’s a hobby. I like to plant flowers and plants when I have nothing to do to cultivate my character.”
This was called flowers and plants?!
This was clearly a corpse vine!
Chen Yu had seen Alex’s mission report before, so of course, he knew what a corpse vine was!
Alex was a monster created by the corpse vine!
Fang Heng actually used some unknown method to move the corpse vine from the Meteorite’s secret laboratory to this place!
Was he crazy!
He hid such a dangerous thing under the base!
What was he trying to do?!
If he wasn’t careful and something happened to the corpse vine...
“Haha, I’m just joking with you. I’m just doing some research.”
Fang Heng noticed Chen Yu’s expression and put away his joking attitude.
“I received a mission related to the corpse vine. Because the corpse vine is extremely dangerous, I kept them here for research. Normally, no one would come in here.”
“I see.”
Chen Yu was scared half to death.
Good lord, who would plant the corpse vines in the basement to cultivate one’s character?
After walking around the prison, Chen Yu did not find any signs of anti-federation forces.
The only thing that made him feel a little strange was the corpse vines planted in the basement.
It made sense if they were used for research.
As for whether there were any hidden anti-federation forces infiltrating the prison, he still needed to observe for a few more days.
Apart from the internal investigation of the prison, the federation would also conduct a thorough investigation of the other party outside of the game, including background checks, financial transactions, interpersonal relationships and so on.
After years of training by the federation, if there really were anti-federation forces lurking inside the prison, Chen Yu believed that he would not be able to hide it from the federation’s eyes.
In the end, a few of them came to the three iron gates at the end of the underground passage.
Chen Yu explained to Fang Heng, “The information the federation has collected is not much. We only know that beyond these three iron gates is the second basement of the prison. The giant zombie Erita is locked inside.”
“The magnetic card to open the other two iron gates can be found inside Prison No. 1 and Prison No. 2 respectively.”
Chen Yu took two steps back as he spoke, pointing at the iron gate at the fork of the passage.
“This passage leads to the basement of Prison No. 2. You should have the magnetic card to open the gate.”
“Be careful, there are a large number of Tier 1 mutated spider zombies and poisonous zombies inside Prison No. 2. They are very difficult to deal with.”
“After cleaning up Prison No. 2, you can find the key and the magnetic card to the gate of Prison No. 1.”
“As for the situation inside Prison No. 1, we have no other information yet.”
Fang Heng listened carefully to Chen Yu’s words and nodded solemnly.
“The estimated number of zombies in Prison No. 2 is between 3,000 to 5,000, and the number of Tier 1 mutated zombies is over 10%.”
“Based on the efficiency of our federal team alone, we estimate that it will take at least 10-15 days to clean up all the zombies. If there are any accidents during this period, it might be a little slower.”
Fang Heng looked at the passage on the right that led to Prison No. 2, deep in thought.
3,000 to 5,000 low-level zombies?
Great! Another large sum of points could be added to his account!
With this amount of points, the remaining zombies could basically complete the transformation into vine zombies...
“After all, the final reward for this mission is the S-level talent enhancement plan. The process won’t be that simple. Although it’s very difficult, we can still complete the mission slowly.”
Chen Yu looked at Fang Heng, who was deep in thought, and patted his shoulder to show his encouragement.
“Take your time. The federation will provide you with support and help you clean up the zombies.”
Fang Heng raised his head and said, “Alright, thank you.”
