Before the player woke up, Yu Xiangnan had successfully sent him into the hidden map.
bite--
[Congratulations to player Yu Xiangnan (ID: H00) for completing NPC timed mission 2 in 13 hours, 4 minutes, and 12 seconds.]
[Reward Received]: Attribute Points * 80
[Player Yu Xiangnan (ID: H00) has been detected to have completed limited-time mission 2 within 24 hours. An additional reward of "Hidden Map Achievement Fragment *1" has been issued.]
A flash of golden light.
Yu Xiangnan lowered his eyes, looking at the [Hidden Map Achievement Fragment] card that had appeared out of thin air in his hand, and was slightly taken aback.
I didn't expect that completing the task within 24 hours would actually give me an extra reward... If that's the case, would there also be an extra reward if the first NPC timed task was completed within six hours?
Unfortunately, I completed the task in 6 hours, 32 minutes and 11 seconds.
After completing both tasks and with no more time-limited tasks available, Yu Xiangnan wandered around the devastated area, trying to find Jiang Ye's whereabouts.
This instance map is vast, covering nearly three cities. Although no new game rule similar to shrinking the game world has been introduced, the number of zombies is rapidly increasing at a terrifying pace. The city streets and alleys are gradually being occupied by zombies, who roam in groups. Players can only survive in unaffected areas, and their activity space is gradually being compressed.
At this point, a day and a half had passed since the torrential rain of blood fell.
All three cities have fallen.
However, many lucky survivors, untouched by the blood rain, were trapped inside the towering buildings.
The government acted swiftly, and the first wave of the zombie elimination plan was launched in full swing. At the same time, various supplies were rapidly transported, temporary shelters were set up, and trapped survivors were rescued.
After about half a day, the timed mission finally arrived.

Another bug?
She was genuinely curious about what exactly the bug was this time.
Yu Xiangnan quickly brought up the game's map interface. With a quick glance, he was pleasantly surprised to find that his current location was very close to the bugged spot. The distance was so short that he didn't even need to drive there.
Moreover, the roads are now completely blocked by zombies.
To make her actions more convenient and efficient, she decisively chose to transform into a zombie and cleverly blend into a group of zombies.
The zombies on the street are all different.
One zombie was dressed in a chef's uniform, a white top hat perched askew on his head, clutching a cleaver tightly in his hand; a short distance away, another zombie wore work clothes, a briefcase slung across his body; and yet another zombie was dressed in a police uniform, his sidearm still in its holster...
Yu Xiangnan's gaze was fixed on the gun, as if drawn by a magnet, unable to look away.
After confirming that there were no mutated zombies around, she slowly moved towards the zombie, stopping only a few steps away to stare directly into its murky eyes.
With lightning speed, she slid towards the zombie's sidearm at its waist, her fingertips barely touching the barrel before she gripped it tightly and snatched the gun away.
Completed in one go.
Yu Xiangnan picked up the pistol and began to examine it. She found the magazine release, and with a slight push of her thumb, the magazine slipped out.
The magazine contains five bullets.
That said, whether before or after the game invasion, she never used any firearms... Perhaps because the game has class skills and various card items, and weapons also have additional effects, the clear distinction between traditional cold and hot weapons doesn't seem to matter so much anymore.
Just as Yu Xiangnan put the pistol in her pocket, preparing to speed up her journey to the location of the bug, a zombie suddenly swayed and approached her.
The zombie was wearing a wrinkled suit, with a tie tied crookedly around its neck, and its phone was tightly gripped and held to its ear.
In the instant I turned around, I almost bumped into him.
The zombie tilted its head, its empty eyes staring at Yu Xiangnan, seemingly puzzled.
Just then, a zombie pounced from behind, looking extremely hungry. It charged straight at the zombie holding a cell phone and sporting a receding hairline, then leaped up and viciously bit down on its head.
The sudden attack was extremely powerful, causing the phone to slip from the hand instantly, arc through the air, and fall to the ground with a "thud".
Immediately afterwards, a tooth flew out as well.
A row of bloody teeth marks appeared on the top of the Mediterranean zombie's head.
At this point, the Mediterranean zombie was completely enraged. It suddenly sprang into action, and the two zombies immediately began to wrestle and fight.
"???"
Yu Xiangnan's pupils dilated, and he immediately took several steps back to avoid being affected.
No, what kind of zombie would bite someone's head, specifically choosing a bald spot? Isn't that just asking for trouble and provoking the zombie?
They must be starving.
The bug occurred in an office building.
Yu Xiangnan walked quickly toward the office building, his eyes scanning the surroundings rapidly.
The city is now littered with corpses.
Unfortunately, the "Return to the Earth" effect can only be triggered three times a day; otherwise, her maximum health and energy would probably have skyrocketed.
Why......
Previously in the "Mutant City" instance, she tried to bury the corpses of mutated insects, but found that it was not within the effective range. In the "Mobile Home" instance, although there were many NPCs, she was trapped on a cruise ship, surrounded by vast seawater. Where could she find land to perform "burial"? She didn't even have the conditions to dig a hole and bury the corpses.
They really are completely controlled by the system.
Yu Xiangnan walked into the office building. The bloodstains on the glass curtain wall had long been washed away by yesterday's heavy rain. Under the sunlight, it reflected a cold, hard luster, like a huge mirror, reflecting the sky, the street, and the zombies.
There are quite a few zombies in the office building. Although it has as many as twenty floors, there are probably not many survivors left.
The elevator was completely broken, so Yu Xiangnan decisively chose to take the stairs and climbed all the way to his final destination, the fifteenth floor, without even breaking a sweat.
In the past, he probably would have given up by the seventh or eighth floor.
Just as I reached the fifteenth floor, a booming sound, growing louder as it approached, suddenly came from outside the building.
It seems... to have come from the sky.
