Chapter 129 Zombie Siege (22) - Just Data
Fang's father rearranged the accommodations around the Fang family villa, with those who made greater contributions staying closer to the Fang family's residence.
The security team will be deployed to various villas to ensure everyone's safety.
The Fang family vacated a lot of space, and Zai Fumeng moved into the Fang family home, where he and Ning Shu each had a room. However, Si Zhong still lived in the original villa.
Si Zhong is capable, but his personality makes everyone uneasy, so the status quo is maintained.
Si Zhong had no objection to this arrangement, mainly because he didn't care.
After finishing his work for the day, he would relax in the villa or sit on the balcony watching the people below work, enjoying himself immensely.
Because Fang's father rearranged the accommodations, Ning Shu and Zai Fumeng assisted him, mainly because some people were dissatisfied and needed someone to "supervise."
Ning Shu's mere presence commanded obedient compliance from those who were dissatisfied, or they would face severe consequences.
The NPCs were puzzled. Ning Shu was such a cute and gentle girl, and seemed easy to talk to, but when she put on a stern face and stared at them, they felt uneasy.
Having witnessed Si Zhong's terror, and fearing that they would be eaten alive if they didn't cooperate, everyone remained calm for a while.
Ning Shu felt this was inappropriate. After completing Mission 1, they probably wouldn't stay here for long, and they would still have to rely on the Fang family in the future.
She instructed Fang's father to actively train the guard team, as some of the NPCs were quite capable, though they were inferior to the players.
Mr. Fang assumed she was worried about managing too many people, so he readily agreed.
As Ning Shu was about to leave, Si Zhong appeared behind her without her noticing.
She was startled: "What...is wrong?"
Si Zhong looked at her expressionlessly: "They're just a bunch of data. What's the point of talking to them so much? They'll cease to exist once the instance ends."
Ning Shu frowned. She disagreed with his statement, but she didn't want to say anything more to him. She pretended to agree with him and said, "I know. I was just bored."
Si Zhong thought she would refute him, but to his surprise, she actually agreed with him, which made him feel bored.
He listened to them talk for a long time, but he was bored, so he turned around and left.
Ning Shu looked at the other person like this and felt confused. It seems that one should not be too idle.
After finishing dealing with matters at the base, Ning Shu began to think about how to clear the level.
Task 1 should be fine. They already have over 300 people today, so only 100 or so are needed.
Based on her understanding of Cheng Chuan's abilities, completing the task shouldn't be difficult; the real dilemma was deciding between Task 2 and Task 3.
A third of the dungeon time has passed, and her progress on Quest 2 is only 2%, indicating that Quest 2 is exceptionally difficult.
She didn't really want to choose mission 3. The system had already given her a hint: "Zombie Siege." There must be more than just one or two zombies capable of besieging the city.
She struggled with mission 2, and the zombies' abilities seem to be constantly evolving, so mission 3 will definitely be even more difficult.
Ning Shu recalled what Zai Fumeng had said; she seemed to have directly chosen mission 3.
Does she have some special ability that guarantees she can pass Mission 3? Ning Shu decided to talk to Zai Fu Meng about it.
When she found Zai Fumeng, she discovered that he was sitting to the side, seemingly in deep meditation, with his eyes closed, as if he were an old monk.
Ning Shu wasn't sure if she would disturb the other person, so she sat aside and waited for Zai Fumeng to "wake up".
She didn't know how long she waited, so long that she almost fell asleep, before she heard Zai Fumeng calling her.
"Sister, sister, why don't you go to bed if you're sleepy?" Zai Fumeng asked, puzzled.
Ning Shu was still dazed for a moment, then realized that the other person had woken up: "Um, I was looking for you."
Zai Fumeng tilted her head: "Looking for me? Sister, you tell me."
Ning Shu stared intently at Zai Fumeng: "You mentioned before that you were going to do Mission 3. Do you have some kind of trump card?"
Zai Fumeng looked puzzled: "What kind of trump card do you need?"
Ning Shu: "Really? Did you just pick that randomly?"
Zai Fumeng: "No, it's because I can't do mission 2, so I'll choose mission 3, it's easy."
Ning Shu: "How is it simple?"
Zaifu Meng: "Isn't it enough to just participate in the final day's battle and survive until the end of the instance?"
Ning Shu's eyes widened: "You think mission 3 is easier than mission 2?"
Zaifu Meng: "Yeah, 100,000 zombies, I don't have that many shells."
Ning Shu: "But on the last day, there are estimated to be more than 100,000 zombies. Do you have enough ammunition?"
Zaifu Meng gave him a look as if he were an idiot: "What would I have needed so many cannonballs that day? I could have just hidden and survived until the end of the dungeon."
Ning Shu: "...Is this how you understand Mission 3?"
Zai Fumeng: "Is there a problem with this understanding?"
Ning Shu felt...maybe there wouldn't be a problem, so she humbly asked, "So how do you plan to hide?"
Zai Fumeng: "You've hit the nail on the head. I was just doing this in the forging space. Let me show you."
She put her hand on Ning Shu's hand as soon as she finished speaking.
Ning Shu felt dizzy for a moment, and then she saw a white space.
The space was only a dozen square meters in size, with a platform in the middle and a coffin-like object on it, though the object had a metallic sheen.
"Sister, do you see what's on the table?" Ning Shu heard Zai Fumeng's voice.
"Look, I see it, what is that?" She didn't want to describe the thing directly, worried that she might misunderstand and step on a landmine.
"That's what I'll use on my last day. I plan to lie in it so the zombies can't bite me and I can definitely survive until the end of the dungeon."
Ning Shu was speechless.
Seriously? Your method is to pass the level while lying in a coffin? That's such an outrageous way... She really hadn't thought of that.
The next instant, Ning Shu felt dizzy again and returned to reality; the white space before her was no longer there.
Zai Fu asked Ning Shu excitedly, "How was it, sister? Wasn't I amazing? Do you want me to make one for you too?"
Although she didn't have many materials left, she was willing to make room for some for her sister.
Ning Shu paused for a moment. Such hospitality... she decided to decline. She offered a suggestion: "Even if zombies can't bite you, won't they suffocate themselves?"
Zai Fumeng felt that Ning Shu really underestimated him: "I made a vent, so I'm not afraid."
"What if it falls into fire or water? Wouldn't it be roasted or drowned?"
Zai Fumeng was speechless at those words. Oh, right, she hadn't expected that.
Ning Shu could tell from her expression that she had miscalculated: "Also, won't the system judge you as 'not participating' in the battle if you do this?"
I think you shouldn't use this method, but your approach is correct; you can try another method.
