Chapter 4: Team Mode? Mom and Sister Appears!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Inside the basic bunker, it was dark and the decorations were simple.
A stone conference room and a wooden bed.
There were five engineering blueprints and a recruitment order thrown at a random corner.
Lin Ye picked it up and took a look.
The blueprints were the lowest grade of common goods, and the constructing conditions were extremely simple.
Amongst them were the blueprints he needed.
Level 1 Tent: 10 Wood, 10 Stone. Up to 5 beginner native workers can live in it. [Requires 3 square meters of land]
Level 1 Fishery: 100 Wood, 50 Stone. Daily production is enough to feed 10 beginner native workers. [Requires a nearby water source]
Level 1 Hunting Ground: 100 Wood, 50 Stone. Daily production is enough to feed 10 beginner native workers. [Requires forest]
Level 1 Farm: Requires fertile land. Ten square meters is enough to feed 10 beginner native workers. [Requires land]
Level 1 Barracks: 100 Wood, 100 Stone. Able to produce units which belong to the Lord. [Requires blueprint for units. (Obtained through killing zombies which will randomly drop them or through opening treasure chests or exchange with other players)]
As for the recruitment order.
The information indicated that as long as accommodation and food conditions were satisfied, he could recruit more native workers from the Underworld.
This was not needed for now. Lin Ye immediately kept the recruitment order into the Civilization Archive’s resource page.
He looked at the five blueprints.
The first on his to-do list was to settle the accommodation.
400 native workers required 80 Level 1 tents, which was 240 square meters of land.
Building resources required 800 Wood and 800 Stone.
Next was food.
Fisheries could catch fish and hunting grounds could hunt for wild animals, but those were all dependent on the environment.
As for the exact location for its construction, he would have to wait for the scouting native workers to return.
He could only calculate the resources needed for now.
If the conditions were met, he would need 40 of both fisheries and hunting grounds, which would amount to 2,000 Wood and 2,000 Stone.
Total Material Needed: 4,800 Wood, 2,800 Stone.
Barracks…
“Am I dumb or what? Instead of wasting my time, I can directly exchange for 30,000 Wood and Stone. If that’s not enough, I can just exchange for more.”
Lin Ye was rich and directly exchanged 600 Zombie Souls.
In any case, in a few minutes, the remaining 35 zombie corpses would be completely converted and he could still get 3,500 Souls from them. He was definitely a nouveau riche.
After taking a look at the area of his territory, he immediately summoned 90 native workers and gave out 10,000 Wood and 10,000 Stone.
“Let’s start with 80 tents and 10 barracks. Build them near the graveyard.”
“Our lord is generous!”
The native workers laughed happily as they carried the materials outside the graveyard.
Level 1 Tent [0/80 Remaining Time: 3 hours]
Level 1 Barracks [0/10 Remaining Time: 5 hours]
“So much slower than me!”
Lin Ye was a little upset.
After including the other 290 native workers and having three of them to do one person’s work, the efficiency finally increased by 50%.
While waiting, the 35 zombies had finished disintegrating.
Unfortunately, his luck was mediocre. He only got 3,500 Zombie Souls and those did not drop any engineering or unit blueprints.
The native workers who were out on patrol had yet to return. Fortunately, nothing else happened. Lin Ye opened the chat page of the Civilization Archive.
He first looked at the Family Channel and his eyes lit up.
He realized that his mother was actually chatting with his father. His sister, Lin Wei, had also appeared, but she only spoke a few times.
“Mom, how is it over there? Is it dangerous?” Lin Ye asked.
“Haha, speak of the devil. My Beibei is here.”
His mother, Zhang Cuiling, seemed to be in a good mood. She smiled and said, “I’m doing pretty well here. Perhaps to take care of the old, weak, sick, and disabled like me, the survival game opened up a team mode. Together with two grandma and a child, I am placed in a five-man special team. We arrived an hour later than you, and it’s not bad now. Captain Wang Hui is very responsible. He brought a few young soldiers out to kill zombies. The three of us stayed behind to guard the graveyard. There’s no danger at all.”
“Team mode?” Lin Ye was shocked. There was such a thing?
“Yeah, the World Channel is exploding. Many young people are very envious of us.” Zhang Cuiling laughed.
“What about Lin Wei? Is she also in a team?” Lin Ye raised his eyebrows.
“Nonsense, even a weakling like you can count as a single player. How can I be weaker than you?”
At this moment, Lin Wei, who had been missing, spoke up. She said smugly, “These zombies are useless. With my great strength, I can kill one in one hit. If not for their numbers, I would have finished killing ten zombies a long time ago. For now, I can only sneak up and kill one, hide for a few minutes, and wait for the zombies to disperse. In an hour, I’ve killed nine. I’m still short of one to transform the soil of the graveyard into a zombie converter. The top people in the world channel don’t seem to be any faster than me.”
“I’m not talking to you anymore. There’s another lone zombie. Hanging up. Dad, Mom, send the guide that I’ve written to stinky Beibei. Do as I say. Don’t die. When I get stronger, I’ll save you.”
With that, Lin Wei went off.
“…”
Lin Ye was speechless.
Damn it, I’ve already built a bunker. Did I show off? Did I need you to save me?
“Beibei, Weiwei is right. Hiding and staying alive is more important. Just now, there was a notification in the world channel stating that more than a hundred people had died. That is too terrifying. Oh, right. This is Weiwei’s written strategy for killing zombies. I’ve sent it to you.”
Zhang Cuiling didn’t forget to add another blow.
Lin Ye was speechless, but he heaved a sigh of relief.
Having a carefree family was the best news.
Before leaving, he glanced at the strategy Lin Wei wrote.
The logic was the same as his method.
Making use of the protection mechanism, to stand in the graveyard and fight the zombies outside.
The main difference was probably the weapon.
Normal people were not as efficient as him. Normal white tier weapons had low offensive power and a short attack range.
He could only pull one zombie in by himself, sneak an attack outside, and then escape back to the graveyard. This had to be repeated around seven or eight times.
A blunt knife would pierce the flesh. It was slow, but safe.
If the person was fast, it would take two to three hours. If the person was slow, it would take about four to five hours to complete the mission of killing 10 zombies.
This method was simple and anyone could think of it as long as they calmed down. It will probably be popularized in the world channel soon.
Leaving the family channel, Lin Ye glanced at the world channel again.
There were many people boasting and jeering inside.
Someone killed a zombie, a large group of people would shout 666; Someone got lucky and picked up a treasure chest, getting a blue tier intermediate Crossbow, hundreds or thousands of people would shout ‘Big Boss’!
“These fellas.”
Lin Ye shook his head and laughed. If he were to tell them about the Desert Eagle, it would cause a huge commotion.
However, there was some information that caught his attention under the Chinese Regional Channel.
