Song Jian glanced at Wang Qi beside him. Among the three of them, only Wang Qi hadn’t completed the main quest yet;

“Wang Qi, have you decided where to build your safehouse?” Song Jian suddenly asked.

“I had an idea, but I think 1’11 look around some more.” Wang Qi hesitated for a moment before responding.

It seems that Wang Qi got inspired by Li Ke’er’s safehouse and planned to choose a special place for his safehouse.

Song Jian nodded. The materials he gave to Wang Qi were not just enough for building a safehouse, but also sufficient for several defense structures. However, if Wang Qi found a unique building like a “bar” for his safehouse, he might need a significant amount of Doomsday Coins or something else to construct defensive facilities.

Originally, Song Jian was supposed to assist Li Ke’er in guarding her safehouse. But not only did he enjoy a glass of premium “rum” and enhance his stats, he spent the entire defense process asleep and didn’t help at all.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Song Jian saw Li Ke’er was busy preparing for the bar’s opening. After saying goodbye to her and Wang Qi, he left the bar.

After being upgraded to a safehouse, the surroundings of the bar were completely transformed. The sign “Sunflower Bar” was already erected, with neon lights flashing around it. It looked dazzling even in daylight.

“What a great place!” Wang Qi exclaimed.

“Yeah, 1 didn’t think safehouses in the game could be this fun…” Song Jian commented, somewhat speechless.

“Brother Song, your safehouse is also quite good!” Wang Qi comforted him.

Song Jian’s safehouse was indeed top-notch. It was a level one mansion, and probably no one in the game had upgraded their safehouse to a “mansion” so far.

Unfortunately, the location Song Jian chose was just an ordinary villa and had no special features. Compared with Li Ke’er’s “bar”, it was far from as appealing, which is why Wang Qi temporarily decided not to establish his safehouse.

Song Jian returned to his level one mansion, glanced at the materials required for the next upgrade. Upgrading to level two mansion required 12,000 units of stone and 8,000 units of wood, plus 1,000 units of iron ore.

Wood and stone weren’t a problem, but the 1,000 units of iron ore stumped Song Jian. After playing the game for quite some time, he still hadn’t found a place where he could get iron ore.

With only a few minutes left before he had to exit the game, he decided to look for iron ore the next time he logged in.

After checking his mansion’s defense structures once more and replenishing the ammo for the arrow tower and catapult, Song Jian looked over Alex’s properties. At this point, the Blood Soul Poison Tree Alex had sunk into sleep.

Song Jian felt a bit smug about cultivating an ordinary tree spirit seedling into an elite boss-level entity like the blood soul poison tree. But after seeing Fiana, he had a stark feeling of “goods compete with goods, until the poorer one is discarded”.

Not to mention combat power, just comparing brains, Fiana was leagues ahead of Alex. Comparing with Fiana, Song Jian felt Alex was just a lumbering oaf, only suitable for the role of a doorman.

“If only 1 had a steward like Fiana,” Song Jian sighed as he looked at Alex.

System: Player Song Jian, please get ready. You will be leaving this game in sixty seconds;

The system countdown began, 60, 59, 58….

Soon, a bright light enveloped Song Jian, and when it dissipated, he was no longer there.

After a brief sensation of weightlessness, when Song Jian opened his eyes again, he found himself standing amidst the stars. In front of him, scenes from his gameplay — hunting mutated snake beasts, killing zombie leaders, exterminating militiamen from a garbage collection site, killing tombstone zombies, collecting wood, protecting safehouses — played out until the image stopped at the killing of the roaming zombie Robert.

[Player Song Jian, calculating game reward…]

[Player Song Jian’s final prize: 3,000 Doomsday Coins; for the next log in, effect received: Vitality Point recovery increased by 500%. This effect will last until the next game exit;]

“The next time 1 log in…” Song Jian was startled, but immediately felt dizzy and as if he was sinking into an abyssn.

Whew-

Song Jian suddenly sat up on his bed, drenched in sweat as if he had a nightmare. Looking at the time, it was already past six in the morning, and dawn was breaking outside.

Sitting upright, the first thing Song Jian noticed was a gold brick and a small, black stone tablet on his bedside table.

The gold brick was standard one kilogram size. For a gold brick, it was only about palm length and felt quite heavy to lift up.

The other object was a rectangular black stone tablet, emitting a faint black light. It seemed to be made of black jade with a glossy surface. This tablet was only finger-thickness thick. On the front were tiny, densely etched characters, with a faint layer of gray mist on the surface that made the characters almost illegible.

“Half a month in the game, but only one night in the real world. It’s so amazing.” Song Jian picked up the gold brick, weighed it in his hand, and smiled.

Getting up, after washing up, Song Jian grabbed a backpack, put the gold brick in it. As for the stone tablet, he threw it directly into a drawer for further investigation later.

What could a merely Vitality Point-boosting item be? If it hadn’t revealed something strange while feeding Alex and he casually placed it into the game’s golden-framed package, Song Jian probably wouldn’t have brought it back to the real world.

“Hey, Landlord. Morning!” As Song Jian left, he saw the landlord carrying a bag of vegetables and greeted her.

“All, morning, Xiao Jian. Are you heading to work?” Landlord Ge Xiaojia looked at Song Jian, her eyes flickering strangely.

“All, work.” Song Jian paused, then hastily answered. If not for the reminder from the landlord, he would have forgotten about his job.

Having spent over half a month in the game, Song Jian had forgotten that he still had a probationary job in the real world.

Watching Song Jian’s departing figure, Ge Xiaojia touched the gold bracelet on her wrist and her expression became strange. She seemed to want to shout something to call Song Jian back, but ended up not saying anything, just sighing softly..
