Chapter 136 Rare Armor Blueprints, Guarding the Spring Festival Couplets!

Su Ze's eyes swept over the pieces of intelligence, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously lifted.

[Intelligence One: The zombies in the Teaching Building are expected to give birth to a Lv.5 commander-level zombie on the seventh night!]

The seventh night, meaning tomorrow night, a commander-level zombie would be born in the Teaching Building.

This timing was very precise, exactly the last night of the novice period.

According to the intelligence he obtained daily, Lv.5 was already the highest-level zombie within the novice period.

Moreover, with Li Xinran's [Gold Burst] Bond, the amount of currency obtained from killing monsters was permanently increased by 50%, and there was a higher chance of dropping other items.

When the time came to meet that Lv.5 behemoth, the items it dropped likely wouldn't disappoint him.

[Intelligence Two: After the novice period ends, the areas where Jinghai Dormitory and other dormitories are located will be randomly merged;]

As for this second piece of intelligence, merging with the areas where other dormitories were located made his heart burn even hotter.

After the novice period ended, different Dormitory areas would merge.

This meant he would have the opportunity to come into contact with more people, more players, and... more goddesses sufficient to activate Bonds!

His rapid development was fundamentally due to the goddess bond system.

As for the third piece of intelligence...

[Intelligence Three: In the storage locker in the materials room of the school's Comprehensive Building, there is a special item - guardian couplet. Effect: Can protect other building facilities at the Dormitory entrance. Before the Dormitory door's durability reaches zero, these facilities will not suffer any damage, and their durability will remain unchanged;]

With this thing, enemies couldn't directly attack his turret and surveillance cameras.

Before, no one dared to touch them for fear of his retaliation.

Now, he had completely risen to power, with most of the Dormitory building under his influence. No one dared to be the first to provoke him.

But having an extra layer of insurance was never a bad thing.

In the future, with this guardian couplet, the turret and surveillance cameras at the Dormitory entrance would essentially enter an invincible state before the Dormitory door was breached.

Anyone wanting to destroy the surveillance cameras or turret would first have to reduce his Dormitory main door's durability to zero.

Su Ze felt quite pleased and then opened the supplies refreshed in the Dormitory for the day.

[Ding! Congratulations, your Dormitory has refreshed and obtained a Rare-Grade Blueprint: Light Armor Leather Armor*1!]

[Blueprint: Light Armor Leather Armor]

[Quality: Rare]

[Type: Armor]

[Level: 4]

[Defense: 200]

[Durability: 400/400]

[Trait: Toughness (Can resist shield bashes to a certain extent)]

[Required Materials: Zombie Crystal Core*20, Tough Leather*10, Special Thread*10, Iron Material*100.]

[Upgrade: Cannot be upgraded/Obtain higher-level armor blueprints;]

[Introduction: Lightweight leather armor tanned from special materials, capable of providing excellent protection.]

Su Ze felt delighted in his heart.

Although, apart from the zombie crystal cores, the other materials required by the blueprint seemed unfamiliar, it was still a decent item.

Take it slow. After all, the durability and defense of this leather armor were indeed formidable.

"I'm going out for a bit," Su Ze announced to the women.

Jiang Yuwan looked up at him and softly reminded, "Be careful."

Su Meier gave a charming smile, "Landlord, come back soon."

An Lan merely nodded without speaking.

Qiao Yunge stood up from the massage chair and gently hugged Su Ze's arm, "Darling, be careful, don't get hurt."

Yao Qingya also stopped her work, "Su Ze, should I make you something to eat first?"

Su Ze shook his head with a smile, "No need, I'll be back soon."

He walked out of the Dormitory and began his nighttime activities.

First, as usual, he cleared out the high-level zombies within the Dormitory building to ensure the safety of his people.

With the boost from Li Xinran's [Gold Burst] Bond, the rewards from killing zombies were directly doubled.

Originally, killing an Lv.1 ordinary zombie dropped 2 copper coins; now it became 3 copper coins.

Lv.2 ordinary zombies went from 6 copper coins to 9 copper coins.

Lv.2 mutated zombies went from 20 copper coins to 30 copper coins.

Lv.3 ordinary zombies even went from 30 copper coins to 45 copper coins.

What satisfied Su Ze the most was that the drop rate for materials had also increased significantly.

Materials like Lv.2 Mutants zombie claws were almost guaranteed to drop.

And the drop rate for zombie crystal cores from Lv.3 ordinary zombies was much higher than before, no longer the low probability close to 10% like in the past.

At the same time, during the clearing process, Su Ze confirmed once again that there were still no Lv.3 Mutants zombies appearing in the Dormitory building.

After clearing out the high-level zombies in the Dormitory building that might threaten his team members, Su Ze set out to collect supplies.

...

Comprehensive Building, materials room.

Following the guidance from the intelligence, Su Ze quickly found the corresponding storage locker.

The locker was empty, containing only some scattered documents.

He reached in and tapped on the inner wall of the locker, soon hearing a hollow echo from one corner.

With a slight exertion of force, he pried off the disguised wooden board, revealing a hidden compartment.

Inside the compartment lay a rolled-up couplet.

The top of this couplet, the position of the "couplet head," was a clean white.

It looked like an ordinary white-browed couplet.

Su Ze unrolled it.

Two lines of characters were written on it in vigorous calligraphy.

Upper couplet: Copper walls and iron ramparts protect the home.

Lower couplet: Demons and monsters, do not come near.

Horizontal scroll: Impregnable as a fortress.

The handwriting was simple and straightforward, yet perfectly fitting the current post-apocalyptic environment.

[Special Item - guardian couplet]

[Quality: Special]

[Effect: Can protect other building facilities at the Dormitory entrance. Before the Dormitory door's durability reaches zero, any building facilities except the main door will not suffer any damage, and their durability will remain unchanged.]

[Introduction: A couplet filled with good wishes. Under the blessing of special power, it can bring unexpected protection to your home.]

Su Ze nodded in satisfaction and stored the couplet away.

This item could make the Dormitory's defenses even more solid.

He also wouldn't have to worry about enemies attacking the turret and surveillance cameras first in the future.

After obtaining the couplet, he continued looting the Comprehensive Building.

Useful supplies, whether food, materials, or equipment, he took them all.

His backpack slots quickly filled up again.

He found a corner, activated remote trading, and sent most of the supplies back to the Dormitory.

...

At this moment, in Dormitory 404, Li Xinran stood before a pile of supplies, her brows slightly furrowed.

Li Xinran's posture remained haughty; she always felt she shouldn't lower herself to do such menial work...

But after hesitating for a moment, she still walked over to the mountain of supplies and, with a somewhat unnatural expression, began to help organize them.

Her movements were clumsy, but it was still progress.

A trace of surprise appeared on Jiang Yuwan's cool face.

Li Xinran tried her best to maintain her posture, thinking to herself.

This was something she was willing to do on her own initiative, not under coercion...

...

Time passed, and Su Ze returned from collecting supplies.

Not long after, the midnight ending prompt echoed in the minds of all players.

Daybreak arrived, and the zombies entered their dormant state once more.

The ten great leaders under Su Ze's command also got moving, beginning to prepare to lead the large teams for today's zombie-clearing work.

And Wang Xiong had already taken the initiative to find Wang Meng...
