Chapter 69: Strength Surges, Let's Test Our Strength on the Zombies

15 free attribute points!

Even for Su Ze, his heart couldn't help but jump a few times.

This reward was too generous!

Hundred Zombie Slayer gave six points, and Thousand Zombie Slayer directly more than doubled that.

If a Ten Thousand Zombie Slayer came next... he didn't even dare to imagine it.

Suppressing the wild joy in his heart, his attention fell on the last option.

【Would you like to make a school-wide announcement to declare the achievement you have obtained?】

An announcement?

Su Ze rubbed his chin, falling into a brief moment of thought.

The benefits of an announcement were obvious; it could further consolidate his deterrent power.

It would make those survivors who owed him installment loans even less likely to have any ulterior motives.

But the disadvantages were equally obvious.

At this current time, it was midnight, and suddenly a 【Thousand Zombie Slayer】 achievement appeared.

Someone would likely suspect that he, Su Ze, had the ability to move freely during the midnight zombie tide.

This would completely expose his trump cards.

The source of his supplies, his astonishing strength... everything would be magnified infinitely.

Caution would turn into fear, and fear would breed irrational madness.

Who knew if there would be a few players easily swayed by others who would spread rumors and unite to kill him at all costs before he "grew up."

Although Su Ze didn't think he would lose, trouble was trouble after all.

Besides, if the numbers increased, killing them all would be a loss.

After all, they were all lush green leeks!

"No."

He silently thought to himself, making a decision.

Making a fortune in silence and developing stealthily was the golden rule for survival in the apocalypse.

When he finally obtained the 【Ten Thousand Zombie Slayer】 achievement, it wouldn't be too late to give everyone in this building a little shock of his strength.

By then, any schemes or tricks would be a joke in the face of absolute strength.

After making his decision, Su Ze immediately focused all his attention on those precious 15 free attribute points.

He opened his personal panel.

【Player: Su Ze】

【Personal Attributes: health 8, Strength 8, intelligence 8, Stamina 16, spirit 6, speed 6】

After a night of high-intensity scavenging and fighting, although his Stamina was still abundant, he did feel a hint of fatigue mentally.

He could feel that his spirit attribute seemed to be slowly depleting.

The specific function of this thing couldn't be seen for now, but it definitely couldn't be ignored.

"spirit, add 2 points."

Next was speed.

Since he didn't plan to scavenge for supplies anymore but instead focus on killing, efficiency was the priority.

Faster speed meant faster spear thrusts and faster movement; killing efficiency would increase exponentially.

"speed, add 8 points."

As for the remaining 5 points, Su Ze didn't hesitate and dumped them all into Stamina.

Strength was sufficient for now; one spear thrust was enough to kill in one hit, so adding more wouldn't change that much.

But Stamina could never be too high.

Strong endurance was the foundation of all actions.

【Ding! Attribute points successfully allocated!】

A warm current, several times stronger than before, surged from his heart to his limbs and bones!

The fatigue in his brain was swept away, replaced by an unprecedented clarity and sharpness.

His muscles and bones felt a tingling, itchy sensation, as if endless Stamina was growing and surging within them.

The surge in speed was the most noticeable.

He felt his body become lighter, his legs filled with explosive power, as if he could turn into a real afterimage whenever he wished!

Su Ze slowly clenched his fists, feeling the changes in his body, and opened his attribute panel again.

【Player: Su Ze】

【Personal Attributes: health 8, Strength 8, intelligence 8, Stamina 21, spirit 8, speed 14】

【basic combat power: 67】

His basic combat power had skyrocketed to 67!

After doing all this, Su Ze walked unhurriedly back to the entrance of the underground passage.

Inside the passage, it was a mess.

Severed limbs and foul-smelling blood covered the ground.

Clearly, some zombies were missing; death would turn them into gray light and dissipate.

Many more zombies had been blown into a bloody mess but hadn't died immediately, struggling and letting out roars.

Su Ze raised his long spear, walked in, and began to finish them off one by one.

At the same time, the effect of the 【copper coin necklace】 activated, and copper coins scattered in the pool of blood turned into streams of light, automatically flying into his body.

【copper coins + 2】

【copper coins + 2】

...

After counting the final harvest of the battlefield, Su Ze frowned imperceptibly.

He obtained 334 copper coins.

That meant the two explosives had killed a total of 167 zombies.

There were nearly a hundred more that were seriously injured.

This result seemed glorious, but Su Ze was not satisfied.

To achieve this effect, he had to find the terrain, catch "volunteers," and lure/gather monsters...

The time spent back and forth was not short.

With this effort, relying on his current strength, the number of zombies he could kill with his bare hands would definitely be more than this.

"Not worth it."

Su Ze gave his evaluation.

This thing was only useful when catching others off guard.

Or perhaps it was good for intimidating others.

But to use it as a regular means for mass monster grinding, the cost-effectiveness was too low.

After all, the number of explosives he possessed was extremely small.

He decided to keep the remaining four explosives for now.

He dismissed the idea of continuing to use explosives.

Su Ze carried his long spear, finished off the remaining ones, let the 【copper coin necklace】 automatically pick up all the copper coins, and then walked out of the underground passage.

He no longer maintained the 【Strange Language】 Bond to disguise himself.

What he wanted now was a pure, efficient slaughter!

He walked out of the underground passage.

He found a narrow corner with a decent view, surrounded by walls on three sides, with only one entrance, and stood there.

This was an excellent defensive position, which could ensure that he would never be attacked from the front and back.

He slowly suppressed the grinding sound in his throat that simulated a zombie.

The effect of 【Strange Language】 disappeared.

The scent of a living person was like a bright lamp in the dark night, instantly exposed to the perception of the zombie horde!

"Roar—!"

The few zombies closest to him stopped abruptly.

Their crimson eyes turned instantly, locking firmly onto Su Ze!

The confusion in their eyes was replaced in an instant by infinite violence and bloodthirst!

"Roar! Roar, roar, roar—!"

The frantic roars rang out one after another, like a giant rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up a thousand waves!

In an instant, all the surrounding zombies seemed to have received some kind of order, began to turn around, and surged towards Su Ze's location in a dark mass!

The ground began to tremble slightly.

Looking at the zombie horde gathering from all directions like a black tide, Su Ze's face showed no trace of tension.

He just slowly raised the long spear in his hand, the tip pointing diagonally at the ground, and a curve hooked up at the corner of his mouth.

"Perfect, let me test my current strength on you."
