"Haha, no problem for me." Hayasaka Ai didn't intend to show weakness, she turned her head with a smile and said, "Yuuki, what benefits do you want?"

Please don't look so scary when you say "welfare", as if I will be dead if I make any unreasonable requests.

And senior sister Mai, I heard the sound of you opening the safety of your pistol. If I treat you differently, are you going to make a few holes in my body?

An atmosphere of a killing field was spreading, but this did not pose any problem for Yuki.

"Hasaka, if you have time, give me a maid outfit."

Humph, that's pretty good. You have good eyesight.

Mai let go of the pistol, and then something even stranger happened. Hayasaka Ai didn't get angry, nor did she break down. There was just a strange flash in her eyes, and then she nodded.

"No problem, I promise you."

Hiss, this woman is crazy, how could she accept it so calmly? My bunny girl costume is still a black history.

It must be a bluff. I have to remember that it's only fair to know each other's dark history.

She was waiting to see what was going to happen, and Yuki breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this little test had been passed.

Maid outfits may seem shameful, but for Hayasaka Ai, they are just work clothes and have long been part of her daily wardrobe.

"Fatty, come here."

Yuki spoke loudly, and just as he finished his words, Robert came running over in a panic, and like a tiger pouncing on its prey, he slammed his knees on the floor, hugged Yuki's thighs and started crying.

"Brother Yuki, don't kill me. I was only following the orders of that bastard Li Dan. I really didn't mean to abandon you!"

When crossing the railway, he ran faster than anyone else and indirectly sold Yukiro. Who knew that this was so complicated and it turned out to be a game between new and old players, and in the end the new player won.

Who can I go to for justice? Any normal person would stand on Li Dan's side.

There's no need to pretend to be afraid. Yuki can kill this worthless fat man right now. It would be strange if he wasn't afraid.

"I know. If you were Li Dan's man, you would have been taken away just now." Yukiko patted his head gently with a friendly look: "Don't cry, I'm not as scheming as Li Dan, nor as ruthless as him. After all, we have fought side by side."

Robert didn't believe a word of the first half of the sentence, but he agreed with the second half. At least according to his observation, Yuki, Mai, and Hayasaka Ai have a very harmonious relationship. Weren't they joking just now?

"Yes, yes, yes, I will listen to you from now on. I will be more obedient than Miss Hasaka and Miss Mai!"

Sakurajima Mai immediately revealed a look of disdain. This man was so happy when he left them behind just now, but now he is like a dog, without any bottom line at all.

"Well, just be good and listen to me, I will ensure that you will be safe. Fatty, you are a very accurate shooter and it is quite useful." Yuki gave the same encouraging look as Li Dan. It is a skill to change one's ways without any psychological burden.

"No problem, I'll beat whoever you tell me to beat!"

The fat man slapped his chest, and Yuki didn't bother to look at him. He asked, "Are you curious about how to survive the last day and night?"

After a brief interlude, attention returned to the main topic. Hayasaka Ai instantly became expressionless, returned to player form, and checked the time.

"There are still five hours until daybreak. I don't think you will wait until daytime to make plans."

The answer is of course no. The intensity after the moonset must be extremely high. Even Li Dan has no confidence that he can survive it safely, so he chooses to turn against her and prepare to snatch a way out from Sakurajima Mai.

"Let me think about it, you want to avoid the last day and night, right?"

"Smart. Since the moon rises and sets for a day, there is a place where we can instantly cross the entire day and enter the last night. Then, when we leave that place, the red moon will set instantly again."

Yuki spoke eloquently and almost threw the answer in his face. No one present was an idiot, and they understood it all at once, as if a layer of window paper had been pierced through.

"The Castle of Eternal Night!"

Mai Sakurajima blurted out and wanted to slap herself on the head. Why didn’t I think of such a simple truth? It turned out that I was in a game and had no time to look for patterns.

Hayasaka Ai narrowed her eyes. She also couldn't figure it out, but she understood that Li Dan must know the answer. This was the reason for the truce with Yuki.

The answer is not difficult for this veteran player, but how to execute it is a problem. The castle is now just a monster spawning point. If one really has the ability to kill all the zombies, he will not be afraid of the last day and night.

"How to get in and how to get out, this clue is in the hands of Jiecheng."

For a moment she seemed to have thought of something, and she looked at Sakurajima Mai, but they quickly separated without revealing any problems.

"So we're going back to the castle?"

"Well, but the way back is not peaceful." Yuki looked downstairs and could see zombies in groups of three or four on the street. These creatures would not evolve like they did during the day, but their numbers were increasing as time went by.

It won’t be long before the entire city is filled up, and the tide of zombies will be incalculable.

"No matter what, we have to hold on until morning. In other words, we have to receive two more gifts from Red Moon."

Everyone's faces tensed, and they followed Yuki's gaze towards the street, and then their nervous expressions turned ashen.

It was as if someone had turned up the brightness, and the moonlight suddenly surged, making the crimson moonlight between heaven and earth even more intense.

There were dozens of zombies wandering around at the intersection, and more than twenty of them disappeared as if they were lost in the thick moonlight.

But the disappearance only lasted for a moment. Soon, a monster with blue-gray skin, fat body and a bulging belly appeared in the moonlight, and the extra zombies disappeared.

It literally turned into a living person, no, it turned into a zombie, which made people breathe faster.

"Wait a minute, what is this?" Sakurajima Mai felt like she was on a roller coaster. She had just felt comfortable for a while, but now her heart was pounding again.

Hayasaka Ai still had no expression on her face. She just gently stroked the axe handle and looked at Yuuki who was observing the surroundings with a telescope:

"No wonder you had to deal with Li Dan's matter before 3 a.m."

Whether players believe it or not, the cruel facts are in front of them——

This is the third gift from Red Moon.

"Random fusion? Becoming an elite monster in the zombie swarm? Well, it's easier than I thought. It seems that after destroying Li Dan's contract, the difficulty accumulation is not as outrageous as before. This is good news."

Yuki ignored the crazy looks from the three people behind him and instead breathed a sigh of relief after observing the swarm of zombies around the community.

'The one with the big belly looks a bit like a vomiter, and I just saw a monster with a long tongue. Is this the way to survive?'

He was not surprised. Yuki knew from the beginning that the concept of "zombies" encompassed many types, such as the thing in the basement of the castle, and the thousand-year-old zombies that might appear in the future. He paid more attention to the reasons behind it:

The difficulty is indeed increasing, but the magnitude is much smaller than the evolution of a Licker into a Tyrant, because the fusion means that the number of zombies is also decreasing, which is better than throwing out some horrible monster out of thin air.

At that time, you will have to deal with the zombie horde while fighting monsters more powerful than the Tyrant. That would be a truly desperate situation.

"Let's go that way." Yuki pointed in the direction of the railway line and heard a sound of rapid breathing.

This is to go to "Tiger Mountain". The density of zombies must be higher than that in the old city. Yuki didn't explain, and directly shot the rope gun at the opposite apartment building, then jumped up, holding the cable and sliding to the other side.

The night wind blew on my face. A zombie with a hunched body and strong arms was wandering on the roof. It heard the sound of a rope gun piercing into the floor and immediately turned its head.

Its face cracked open, revealing bloody sharp teeth. Just as Yuki landed on the ground, it jumped up to a height of five or six meters.

The monster drew a parabola in the air, and its destination was Yuki's back. Before Hayasaka Ai could raise her gun, Yuki had already stepped to the side and slashed directly at it with the whining chainsaw sword.

The chainsaw cut off the raised arms like cutting cheese, penetrated into the waist, and came out from the back. The killing made Yuki's heart beat faster, and he couldn't help but reveal a bloodthirsty smile.

You want to ride me?

In just a moment, the monster was cut into two pieces, and the zombies that ran to the rooftop after hearing the news didn't even see anything clearly. They were pierced through the head by bullets and lay down neatly.

Hayasaka Ai slowly put down the gun, and suddenly understood where the "simple" the man mentioned came from.

He climbed up step by step, stepping on the corpses of dungeon monsters and veteran players, taking the greatest risks and getting the highest rewards. For example, this greatsword inherited at least one-third of Thomas' strength.

"I see. He is no longer the same as before."

......

The game tortures the players, but also removes impurities like forging iron. Every time you cross an obstacle and take a step forward, you will see a different scenery.

A day ago, Yuki had almost nothing except the adaptability of long-term preparation and the foresight of a time traveler, but now he has stepped into the extraordinary. In addition to ordinary firearms, he also has a long knife, a rope, and a big sword in his hand.

'Chaos items, skills, characteristics, as well as invisible and intangible combat experience and psychological qualities.'

'No wonder this game doesn't have teammate protection, and chaos items don't need to be bound. This is encouraging the winner to take all and inherit the power of the dead.'

Yuki's eyes showed obvious excitement, and he jumped down the stairs, with his sleeves rolled up. His 'magic circuit' flickered like a neon light, lighting up when he slashed, and dimming after he chopped a human body into pieces, repeating this cycle over and over again.

It is still a mastery-level skill, but Yuki feels that after a day of intensive use, he has used it more proficiently while keeping the upper limit unchanged. It is no longer like before when he had to output at full power all the time and then enter a cooling-off period.

He carried a chainsword on his back and held a long knife in his hand, and his short sprint speed gave the zombies no time to react.

puff.

He pierced the heads out, twisted the knife and crushed them, then used his waist and abdomen to exert force before the arms grabbed them, and jumped behind the zombies like a gecko on the wall, cutting off their heads cleanly and neatly, then made a bright knife flower, and turned around with the long knife in reverse.

A knife swept past, and several broken arms spun in the air. His left shoulder shook, and he caught the rifle with his elbow, pointing the muzzle at the entrance of the corridor.

Ta-ta-ta-ta.

The hip shot was still very accurate. The swollen fat man who had just stepped into the corridor was covered in blood. He ran forward a few more steps in the rain of bullets, and finally exploded with a loud bang.

Green mist filled the corridor, making the zombies that rushed in even more violent. They stepped through the mist with their fangs and claws bared. Yuki took a look and closed the fire door, strengthened it, and allowed the zombies outside the door to slap it.

pat.

A new magazine was loaded, and with the crisp sound of the bolt being pulled, Yuki turned around.

"The zombies are all attracted to the corridor. Leave through the window. There is a sewer not far away."

Hayasaka Ai, Sakurajima Mai, and Robert were standing at the corner of the stairs, holding their guns and looking at the man in a daze.

They killed their way all the way from the tenth floor to the first floor, but they didn't even have time to fire a single bullet. Dozens of zombies were dealt with by Yuki, especially the fat man, whose mouth corners began to twitch.

This actor fooled me so badly!

Not long ago, he teamed up with Yuki to clear the way, and was very proud of his marksmanship. Now he realized that the other person had hidden his strength.

Maybe not as violent as Thomas, but the advantage is that the action is smooth and flowing, and the second knife hardly consumes too much energy, which makes people wonder:

Is this really a newbie at the same level?

"Fatty, what are you standing there for? Go and clear the way."

Hearing this shout, Robert nodded quickly, opened the window and jumped into the street, looked around in a sneaky manner, and then shot the lone zombie with his rifle.

Yuki put away his knife, looked at the corpses scattered all over the ground and nodded with satisfaction.

He knew he had become stronger without being reminded by others. In the past, he had to rack his brains to get down from the roof, not as direct and rough as he was now.

"And this chainsaw sword should be one of the most powerful chaos-level weapons." Yuki looked at the sword edge that had returned to its silver-white color. No wonder there were no extra rewards in the game, and no wonder Li Dan was afraid of someone pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger.

Every old player is a mobile treasure. Being at the same chaos level, this thing is much more powerful than Hayasaka Ai's frontal lobe fragment. Not only does it have amazing attack power, it can also be used as an auxiliary prop.

"It seems that you are very satisfied with this sword?" Hayasaka Ai came closer with some envy in her eyes. At least the side effects of the chainsaw sword were much smaller than her own cheating thing.

Yuki climbed through the window and landed silently on the street. He saw the fat man opening the manhole cover in the middle of the road and waving at him. He ran while whispering:

"More than satisfied, I just used this thing to kill a few zombies and warmed up my knife. During the duration, it will slightly increase my physical strength."

Hayasaka Ai was even more envious. One item had several uses. Even if it was simply used for combat, its destructive power would be even greater.

"That Thomas is really lucky."

"I don't think it has anything to do with luck. He has nothing on him except this sword, and I can't see the complete information of the chainsaw sword."

"Oh? Interesting. He went through an entire dungeon." Hayasaka Ai thought thoughtfully. She had only obtained a chaos item and a skill upgrade so far. Sakurajima Mai had gained similar things.

Thomas is not like the fat boy who just wants to be there for the show. He must have gained more than this.

"It seems that there are other uses for the dungeon rewards." Yuki ran to the manhole cover and leaned over to open it. "I'm looking forward to seeing how we develop it when we get back alive."

Let’s think about the future later. The most important thing now is to complete the final progress. He and Hayasaka Ai put their thoughts aside and climbed down the ladder into the sewer.

The sewer in the old city is in the shape of an underground river, with foul-smelling wastewater flowing in the middle and stone steps about a meter wide on both sides, just enough for people to walk on.

There shouldn't be any zombies here, but Red Moon brought a third gift. Some elites with "intelligence" appeared randomly, and it was not difficult to open the manhole cover.

Hayasaka Ai had previously hacked into the municipal system and downloaded the old city's pipe network map from it. Once she opened it, she wouldn't get lost. The sewer led as far as the canal, but its exit was towards the south of the city.

"We have to take a detour. We will go out from the canal, cross the bridge, and then walk northeast along the cross street. We will reach the Castle Square in about an hour."

"It's not that easy. The closer we get to the castle, the more zombies there are, and their quality is higher now." Sakurajima Mai reminded.

"That's just the normal path." Hayasaka Ai didn't bother to explain, and simply looked at Yuuki: "How about we find a way to get an armored vehicle, and then you use your skills to strengthen it, and then we rush over?"

"It's okay before Red Moon sends the third gift, but you are underestimating these zombies now." Yuki shook his head. This was also his original idea. Strengthened magic combined with special police armored vehicles can indeed carve out a bloody path.

He looked at his watch. It was 4:30 in the morning. He closed his eyes and thought.

You can't go too early. If you cause a tide of zombies in front of the castle, you will be killed even if you have three heads and six arms. You can't go too late either. During the day, the enemy's destructive power and mobility are too strong, and they can't hide in the city at all.

And before the moon set at eight o'clock, another gift was delivered, and no one knew what it was.

Yuki rubbed his head. Even though he already knew the answer and knew how to fill in the answer, even if he put aside the factor of Li Dan, it was still not easy to do.

"After crossing the canal, we'll go around the cross street and try not to trigger a large-scale zombie tide."
