Chapter 43: The Zombies Were Here

“Hah! For how long have I been sleeping?”

Enoch got up from the ground, stretched lazily, and looked around in high spirits.

This was the most comfortable sleep Enoch had ever had since he entered the game. He even felt a trace of warmth from home. The negative emotions in his heart had gradually disappeared in this sleep.

Now, Enoch felt unprecedentedly comfortable. Not only was he physically comfortable, but he was also mentally relaxed.

Lightning was also quite happy to see Enoch wake up and squeaked at him, expressing its happiness.

Every Berserk Rat was especially excited as they looked at Enoch with a trace of joy and zeal in their eyes.

Although Enoch didn’t understand the Berserk Rats’ language, he could discern their excitement and happiness.

“Good boy.” Enoch immediately picked up Lightning and gently stroked its fur.

Although Lightning knew how to use lightning, its fur was unusually soft, and there was no static electricity at all.

It was soft to the touch, just like a large plush toy.

Enoch enjoyed this warm feeling. It was like getting a thermos bottle in the middle of winter, especially comfortable.

Lightning also seemed to enjoy Enoch’s touch, and it let out a small sound, seemingly one of comfort.

The other Berserk Rats around them were also envious, but they didn’t dare to protest because Lightning was the alpha. They could only look at Enoch with their big watery eyes, hoping that he would pet them too.

Enoch also noticed the expectant gazes of the Berserk Rats, but he didn’t pay attention to them. Instead, he looked at the black fog that covered his floating island.

“It’s almost nighttime? Does that mean that the Netherworld invasion is approaching?”

At present, the sun in the sky had already dimmed, and the visibility was decreasing bit by bit.

Enoch could also see that the black fog outside was rolling even more violently. It was as if a big hand was stirring it from within.

“I slept for a full 20 hours!?” Enoch muttered in disbelief.

After all, sleeping for 20 straight hours was something that sounded incredulous no matter how one looked at it.

However, Enoch carefully thought about his current mental state and felt relieved.

After all, his mental state was enough to show the quality of his sleep.

From this point of view, his 20 hours of sleep were definitely worth it.

“I’ve rested well. The next thing I need to do is to wait for the Netherworld invasion.”

Enoch was not like the others who were filled with worry. Instead, he looked very relaxed as he had already done everything he could. The only thing left was to wait for his fate.

At least for Enoch, he had made the necessary preparation, and whether he succeeded or failed, it would be the result of his hard work.

He would gladly accept either outcome.

This was the biggest difference between Enoch and the others. He was calm!

Enoch would do his best for his own purposes. No matter what the end result was, he would face it calmly.

He would not be like a pitiful worm, constantly shouting, crying, and begging.

To Enoch, this was a laughable, even pathetic, act.

Thus, after waking up, Enoch didn’t even take a look at his chat channel. He was well aware of what was happening there.

To Enoch, those people weren’t worth sympathizing with, so he didn’t plan to look at their chat content and affect his mood.

“I’m really cruel.” Enoch smiled and shook his head.

His tone was exceptionally strange, making it hard to tell whether he really thought he was cruel. Or was he mocking those who were unwilling to work hard and only hoped that others could save them?

Perhaps, there were hints of all the abovementioned?

“Squeak?”

Lightning, which was in Enoch’s arms, also raised its head and looked at Enoch in confusion. It was as if it was puzzled by what Enoch had said.

“Lightning, the war is going to start soon. You have to perform well!” Enoch said with a serious face.

“Squeak!”

Lightning and the other Berserk Rats could understand Enoch’s words. They nodded their heads seriously, and the squeaking sounds continued to ring out.

Lightning’s voice was thunderous as if it was making a promise to Enoch.

“Little fellow, you’re quite sensible!” Enoch smiled and rubbed Lightning’s head, not stingy with his praise.

This could be said to be the best reward for Lightning. It was so excited that it started squeaking again.

Growl…

At that moment, Enoch suddenly heard a familiar sound.

Immediately, Lightning and the mischief of Berserk Rats looked at Enoch’s stomach.

Enoch had slept for about 20 hours, so he was in a state of hunger. Earlier, it was because Enoch had just woken up that his body did not react. But now, it completely reacted.

“Squeak, squeak!”

Without waiting for Enoch to find his own food, a smart Berserk Rat immediately shot out and quickly brought an Intermediate Energy Fruit to Enoch.

It placed it beside Enoch as if it was presenting a treasure.

Then, it stood in front of the Intermediate energy fruit and looked at Enoch with a pair of big watery eyes filled with anticipation.

This little fellow was undoubtedly waiting for Enoch’s encouragement and praise.

And what was this so-called encouragement and praise?

Actually, it was already clear at a glance.

“Good boy! What a good boy!” Enoch immediately laughed and reached out to stroke that Berserk Rat’s fur.

The Berserk Rat immediately revealed an elated expression.

Enoch looked at this scene and chuckled. He then reached out to pick up the Intermediate Energy Fruit on the ground and took a bite.

Suddenly, a voice sounded.

“The Netherworld invasion has begun. All Divine Tree Masters, please be careful!”

“Eh?”

Enoch raised his head in surprise and looked around. The black fog that was previously outside had already seeped into the floating island.

At the same time, a group of zombies was staggering toward Enoch from within the black fog.

The zombies were here!
