“Bang!”
The bullet accurately hit the Licker’s brain.
[Hint: You have used a gun to deal critical damage to the Licker. You have gained gun experience points +35.]
[Hint: Your skill-gun mastery has been upgraded to Level 2.]
With a good start, the rest was much simpler.
Fang Heng even had the leisure to practice his marksmanship on the tower.
After they had cleaned up the Lickers, Fang Heng and Liao Bufan immediately climbed down from the sentry tower, closed the prison gate and checked the situation of the ‘maze’.
After being devastated by the Lickers, many parts of the ‘maze’ were destroyed.
The spike trap built on the upper level only had about half of its durability left. The ‘wall’ made of logs was even forcefully dug out by the Lickers with their sharp claws, and they directly went through the big hole.
After repairing it, Liao Bufan climbed to the top and poured a new layer of lubricant on it.
Then, they were ready to lure another wave of monsters!
Until 1 pm, Fang Heng had lured five waves of Lickers back and forth.
“Bang!”
The last Licker trapped in the maze was shot in the head by an elite NPC of the Dark Knights!
[Hint: The Dark Knights that you temporarily recruited have killed a Tier 2 mutated zombie-Licker. You have obtained 26 survival points.]
[Hint: You have obtained a Licker sample*1. Current mission-Licker sample collection completion rate: 202%. Current mission-clearing Tier 2 zombies completion rate: 100%.]
“It’s about time.”
Fang Heng had already circled the entire prison to ensure that most of the Lickers had been lured out and cleared out.
He had killed a total of 101 Lickers.
This was in line with Chen Yu’s estimate of the number of Lickers.
Next, it was time to go to the second floor and find the magnetic card to complete the mission.
After working with Liao Bufan to finish repairing the maze for the last time, Fang Heng entered Prison No. 1 alone.
Following the main passageway, Fang Heng went all the way to the second floor and arrived at the door of the firearms room on the second floor.
Sure enough, just as he had guessed, the door of the firearms room was locked tightly.
Fang Heng took out a newly made small iron hammer and started to smash the door.
The iron door had a durability of 2000. Fang Heng spent some time and smashed it more than 50 times before he opened it.
He pushed the door open and entered.
The firearms room had long been looted. The gun cabinet was opened and was in a mess, and scattered bullets fell to the ground.
Fang Heng walked to the safe in the corner and opened it according to the password on the notebook.
“Click…”
There was a magnetic card and a piece of paper lying in the safe.
[Hint: You have obtained a backup magnetic card (Prison No. 507).]
Item: Backup magnetic card (Prison No. 507).
Description: This backup magnetic card has the highest level of authority in the prison. There was a note on its back saying, ‘Emergency use only for special situations. Authorization from the Meteorite Company is required before use.’
“Authorization from Meteorite Company is required before use? Does Meteorite Company has more power than the director…”
Fang Heng muttered softly and picked up the piece of paper at the bottom of the magnetic card to check.
[Notification]
[Prison No. 507 has been authorized by the government to secretly cooperate with Meteorite Company. The basement of Prison No. 1 is forbidden to enter. In case of emergency, if you need to open the basement of Prison No. 1, you need to obtain authorization from the Meteorite Company and the director in advance. (This notification is confidential and it is strictly prohibited from being leaked).]
“Is this a hint that the basement of Prison No. 1 also has a secret research room of the Meteorite Company?”
Fang Heng put the note into his backpack.
He had been to the basement before when he was hunting monsters.
There was a passage there that was blocked by an iron gate.
According to this, the Lickers entrenched in Prison No. 1 most likely escaped from the underground secret laboratory.
Prison No. 507 was likely one of the sources of the apocalypse zombie virus outbreak.
It would be troublesome if there were still a large number of Lickers in the basement.
The Dark Knights’ mercenaries were leaving at 8 o’clock tomorrow. They had to clean up Prison No. 1 before then.
They still needed to go to the basement and check it out.
Fang Heng made up his mind and grabbed his shotgun and went to the basement.
There was still a backup power supply in the basement.
Fang Heng returned to the iron door of the basement. He used the backup magnetic card that he had just obtained to verify it.
“Beep Beep Beep…”
“Verification successful!”
The iron door that blocked the front slowly rose up, revealing the passage behind.
Unlike what Fang Heng had expected, there were no Lickers in the passage.
He walked straight down the corridor.
At the end, there were two explosion-proof doors on the left and right sides.
The door on the left was left ajar, leaving only a small gap.
Fang Heng tried to push the door open to check.
“Hiss…”
Fang Heng sucked in a breath of cold air.
In the room, there were rows and rows of circular upright cultivation pods filled with Lickers.
Most of the cultivation pods had been damaged, and the green liquid that emitted a strange smell flowed all over the floor.
There were still many Lickers’ corpses on the ground.
Most of them were strange-looking and had not fully developed.
It seemed that these were Lickers that had failed to be bred.
Fang Heng saw that several pods were still functioning, and several Lickers were still in the containers, their bodies twitching from time to time.
They looked like they were still in hibernation.
Fang Heng was worried that the Lickers would suddenly wake up, so he carefully looked around the room.
After finding that there were no valuable items, he left the room and closed the explosion-proof door.
The room on the left was used to cultivate Lickers, so the room on the right was most likely a secret research room.
Fang Heng tried to push the explosion-proof door on the right.
It couldn’t be pushed open.
The door was locked.
There was also a magnetic card induction device beside the explosion-proof door.
Fang Heng tried to sweep the spare magnetic card in front of the induction device.
“Beep! Your identity has not been recognized!”
Eh? Unrecognised identity? Not this card?
Fang Heng was surprised.
The explosion-proof door had a durability of hundreds of thousands. It was not realistic to just rely on a hammer to smash it. It was more reliable to find another place to smash the wall.
Strange, this meant that the magnetic card to open the door was somewhere else?
While Fang Heng was puzzled, he suddenly saw a green light flashing above the explosion-proof door in front of him.
“Ka!”
The explosion-proof door opened!?
Fang Heng raised the shotgun in his hand vigilantly.
Then, he saw an excited face peeking out from the door.
It was actually a survivor?!
“That’s great! I’m finally rescued! That’s great!”
A young man wearing black-rimmed glasses was so excited that he was incoherent. He stretched out his hand and gestured.
“Quick! It’s dangerous outside. Let’s enter the laboratory first!”
Fang Heng stepped into the room and quickly looked around.
His guess was right. This was the secret laboratory established by the Meteorite Company.
The survivor immediately closed the explosion-proof door and locked it.
“I’m a Level 2 researcher from the Meteorite Company, Li Bo. Are you from the special operations team here to rescue me? I’ve been waiting for you guys for a long time!”
Li Bo had been trapped here for several months. Finally, he saw a living person!
This made him extremely excited.
“If you had come half a month later, the remaining food reserves would have been exhausted! I thought I was dead for sure!”
“When can we leave this place? When will the follow-up rescue team arrive?”
Li Bo looked at Fang Heng with anticipation.
He had been waiting for this savior for too long!
“No, I’m not from the special operations team, and I don’t have any follow-up rescue team. If you must know, I just happened to pass by here.”
Li Bo paused for a moment.
“Aren’t you sent by the Meteorite Company to save me?”
“No.”
Li Bo realized something and clenched his fist.
“What’s the situation outside? Are the people outside infected with the zombie virus? Has the world fallen?”
“Yes.”
Fang Heng nodded..
