for Advance Chapter

  "When you put it that way, it does make me feel a little scared."

  Li Ke didn't notice what Erina Nakiri was thinking, but you kind of agreed with her point that the businesswoman looked scary.

  Because this is the uncanny valley effect.

  When you see a completely expressionless and unchanging face, especially when the lighting is rather gloomy, you will naturally feel a sense of fear.

  But...

  "But her breasts are really big, and they feel warm to the touch, so I'm actually not scared."

  Li Ke spoke directly about his feelings.

  "So how can you not be a pervert? You're not afraid of something like this!"

  Erina Nakiri seemed to have recovered a lot mentally because she found out that she could also kill zombies, and she couldn't help but complain about Li Ke's words.

  "But even if we're afraid, it's no use. After all, we need this merchant, so we can only choose a way that won't make us afraid of her!"

  Li Ke shrugged.

  This is his true opinion. If he was the only one who discovered this matter, he might do even more crazy things.

  For example, trying to see if the businesswoman's pants could be taken off.

  After all, although there is a feeling of uncanny valley, you have to admit one thing, that is, this businesswoman is no different from real humans, except that she cannot cause effective harm and has no independent consciousness.

  She has saliva, her tongue is soft, and feels like real skin.

  This guy looks, feels, and smells like a human. To be honest, Li Ke feels that if he stays alone for a long time, some crazy things are bound to happen.

  but...

  Looking at Erina Nakiri's chest shaking constantly while she walked, and her snow-white long legs, Li Ke couldn't help but sigh.

  I always feel that he will become crazy faster because of his teammate than when he is alone!

  no way.

  If he is alone, he will definitely use various methods to relieve his loneliness, that is, constantly doing things, making various defensive props and the like.

  Although it still needs to be done now, it will definitely be much faster and more convenient to do these things.

  Take the house search, for example. Without Erina Nakiri, searching the house would be like playing a stealth game, fearing that a zombie or two would suddenly appear out of nowhere, catching him off guard and forcing him to quit.

  But now with Erina Nakiri around, he was much bolder and faster when searching the house.

  It's just that this companion is too beautiful and has such a great figure that it's really hard for people to help but think about things there.

  "Anyway, you'll always find some weird excuses."

  Erina Nakiri blushed and turned her head away. She was still a little angry, but she still looked around carefully and looked for anything that could be used.

  But unfortunately, it didn't.

  On the contrary, Li Ke discovered some interesting things on the way to the store.

  "Oh, am I already level three? I level up pretty fast."

  Li Ke looked at his character interface and smiled. He tried to open the options again, but the tasks, skills, and maps still could not be opened. However, the recipes could be opened.

  "oh?"

  The moment Li Ke opened the recipe, he saw his inventory, but this time his character image disappeared, and his status bar also disappeared.

  Instead, there was a series of strange things on the left.

  "Wooden frames, boxes... Hmm? This is pretty much the same crafting list as other apocalyptic survival games, just a little weird. So, can I make guns?"

  Li Ke looked through his synthesis list and found it very interesting because there were many things in it. He also saw things like stone axes.

  Above the icon, Li Ke saw a stone axe with a wooden handle tied to a stone with a rope, but in the synthesis interface, it was something made up of branches, grass, and pebbles.

  "Well, if I were to synthesize it, would I need the system's help to weave the rope out of grass, or would the system synthesize it directly?"

  Li Ke was a little curious about these things.

  Fortunately, these materials were not difficult to find, so Li Ke bent down and picked up the stone.

  During this process, he discovered something amazing.

  The stones on the ground are only the size of bread and eggs, and there are almost no stones the size of a fingernail or a soybean.

  "interesting..."

  Li Ke didn't think too much about it. After collecting enough stones, he turned to collecting the plant fibers described above.

  But even though it was plant fiber, the icon showed weeds, so after Li Ke tried to pull out a piece of grass, it was determined to be successful, indicating that he had collected plant fiber.

  And there are a total of twenty of them.

  "Isn't this too casual?"

  Li Ke couldn't help but complain, but something even more speechless happened.

  When he wanted to chop some wood with the axe in his hand, he came across a withered bush. He tried to put it into the system space, and then the next moment, an icon flashed in the corner of his eye.

  An icon of a wooden board with a number next to it.

  +3

  The corner of Li Ke's eye twitched, so he grabbed some more bushes, broke them off, and tried to put them into the inventory.

  But no matter whether it is a shrub that is as tall as a person or a shrub that only reaches the calf, after it is destroyed, it is considered wood in the judgment of this system.

  "So, what are you doing?"

  Erina Nakiri looked at Li Ke's actions curiously. She didn't know what Li Ke wanted to do, nor did she understand why Li Ke suddenly started collecting these strange things.

  "Well, I've reached level two and unlocked a recipe system, so I wanted to give it a try. You should be almost there by now, right? You killed a lot more zombies than I did just now."

  Li Ke explained to Erina Nakiri, and the next moment, he chose the synthetic stone axe in his inventory.

  There was no fancy stuff, and no experience suddenly appeared in front of Li Ke. He only saw the stone axe icon appear in the lower left corner of his inventory. Then the next moment, a stone axe with a number 1 written on it appeared in his inventory.

  So fast?

  Li Ke took out the stone axe suspiciously and found that it looked exactly the same as the one in the icon. However, when he tried to hit the stone axe against a tree on the side of the road, cracks immediately appeared on the stone axe and a piece of it broke off.

  "What a piece of rubbish..."

  Li Ke looked at the axe in his hand speechlessly and put it back into the inventory. But the next moment, he looked at the row of empty inventory slots under the corner of his eye, hesitated for a moment, and then put the stone axe, whose durability was reduced by half, into his inventory.

  But nothing happened, so Li Ke looked at the stone axe in the inventory and thought about using it.

  Then the next moment, a stone axe appeared in his hand.

  When Li Ke closed the inventory and swung the stone axe in his hand to hit the big tree again, a magical thing happened.

  The tree didn't have any scars this time, but a number appeared in Li Ke's eyes.

  536/600.

  Not only that, the prompt for increased wood appeared on the right again, and five pieces of wood were directly added!

  "I see. I understand."

  Li Ke nodded and showed an arrogant smile. The stone axe in his hand kept falling on the big tree, and then he swung the axe continuously and chopped the tree. On the tenth time, the durability of the big tree was completely emptied!

  He originally thought that the tree would fall to the ground and was ready to dodge, but to his surprise, the moment its durability was depleted, the tree instantly turned into a pile of debris and disappeared into the air.

  The leaves and branches had all vanished, and in their place the logs had increased in number not by five but by twenty-five.

  "It really fits the game setting."

  "Although I really want to refute you, this is indeed super magical..."

  Erina Nakiri nodded in agreement. She was now gradually able to accept this outrageous world, but she still opened her mouth wide and couldn't help but sigh.

  Li Ke licked his lips because he saw something called a wooden frame in his inventory. His intuition told him that this thing should be the same as the basic blocks in other games.

  It takes ten pieces of wood to make a wooden frame, and it takes two seconds. Li Ke happened to have dozens of pieces of wood, so he decided to make one to see what it was.

  Two seconds passed quickly, and two gadgets that Li Ke had high hopes for appeared in his inventory. He immediately took out a wooden frame from the inventory.

  The small bag appeared again. Li Ke opened the bag, revealing a plywood-like wooden block that was one meter by one meter inside.

  He frowned and tried to push it, and it really felt and weighed like plywood.

  So, he put another wooden frame into the item bar below him, which is also the action bar, and the next moment, a phantom of this wooden frame appeared in his sight.

  "It should be the right button."

  Li Ke aimed it at the asphalt road and tried to use the wooden frame. The next moment, the wooden frame appeared out of thin air on the asphalt road. Not only that, when Li Ke tried to push it, he couldn't push it at all. It seemed as if this thing was embedded in it, and there was no possibility of picking it up at all.

  "This is becoming more and more like a game."

  Li Ke couldn't help but gasp in amazement. This thing must be a magical artifact! If it could be placed directly in the air like in Minecraft, then he and Erina would have nothing to fear from zombies!

  Just find a river, plant crops and draw water from the sky! Live your lovely little life from now on!

  So he made another frame block, built it on top of this frame block, and then pressed the E key in his mind to recycle the frame block.

  Then the next moment, the third frame piece that he had high hopes for fell directly to the ground. Before he could do anything, the frame shattered into pieces and turned into a mosaic-like garbage.

  Li Ke had a bad feeling.

  So he placed another wooden frame, took out his iron axe, and chopped it directly at the plywood on one side.

  The axe got stuck directly on the plywood, but it didn't chop the middle, only half of it.

  But when he chopped the frame blocks placed by the system with his axe, the frame blocks shattered directly to the ground.

  "......"

  Li Ke put down the axe, looked at the mess on the ground, and helplessly summarized it to the curious Erina.

  "It seems like this in-game item authentication is very different from the actual physical object. When you use items directly through the game system, you'll have some amazing abilities, but conversely, there are also some areas where they're inferior to real-world items."

  Li Ke kicked the real version of the wooden frame. Although it looked like plywood, its durability was unexpectedly much stronger than the wooden frame protected by this action bar.

  Taking out the stone axe again, Li Ke used the system's vision to chop down the frame block of the real version with one axe. The next moment, the durability value of the real version of the frame suddenly appeared.

  2/100.

  Li Ke placed two more frame blocks, and then struck each with a stone axe.

  36/100.

  36/100.

  It's completely fair, there is no difference at all.

  The only difference is that there is no change in the digitized framework blocks, while most of the real framework blocks have disappeared.

  "It seems like this system has some double standards. I don't know what the zombies are judged by."

  Li Ke was not very clear, but he had a hunch that the zombies might be like him. When they encountered real objects, they would follow the logic of reality, and if they encountered digital objects, they would follow the logic of data.

  This way, there are many loopholes to exploit.

  Li Ke stepped directly on the data wooden frame. Although its durability had dropped by more than half, there was no problem no matter how he jumped on it.

  But it didn't work in reality. He just stepped on it once, and the plywood, which was already mostly broken, broke directly. Not to mention jumping, Li Ke almost fell down from it!

  "I think I understand what you mean by experimenting with these."

  Erina Nakiri looked at Li Ke who jumped down from the frame block and nodded.

  "Do you want to build a stronghold?"

  Her eyes sparkled.

  "That's right, but it's a bit unrealistic for the two of us to build a solid house. But with the help of these things, we can also make a trench and a reliable house. And we should be able to find a way to repair the RV so that we can drive away in an emergency."

  Li Ke nodded. Since the stone axe was so strong, what about the stone shovel? What about the iron shovel and iron axe?

  And if he remembered correctly...

  Li Ke looked at the axe in his hand, and the next moment, the axe appeared directly in the inventory, with a green number 4 marked on it.

  Li Ke took it out, and then chopped another tree with an axe, and the durability of the tree directly dropped by one hundred and sixty-six points!

  And most importantly, he looked at the instructions for these frame blocks, which said that they could change shape, and the stone axe could directly repair and upgrade items!

  It's simply a universal tool!

  Moreover, with this system, the two of them would not need to find a way to open the door when looting the house in the future. They could just smash the wooden walls with an axe and go in directly!

  "Listen, it sounds impressive..."

  Erina Nakiri thought of the scene that Li Ke described. She and Li Ke built a sturdy and reliable house together, and then no matter how dangerous it was outside, they could both live safely in their big house.

  This kind of life is much better than the current life of fear!

  "Then let's go back and do it quickly after we go to the merchant! Li Ke!"

  A smile appeared on Erina Nakiri's face. She took Li Ke's hand and ran quickly towards the store which was not far away.

  A smile also appeared on Li Ke's face.

  Judging from the strength and operating rules of the zombies we have seen so far, as long as the two of them stop messing around at night, there will be no accidents and no danger!

  Unless there are more dangerous zombies in this world!

  Moreover, he saw that there was something called a water pipe machine gun in his own production column, and the ingredients were very simple. It only required six pieces of wood, two bottles of glue, and four iron pipes to make it!

  As long as he can make this, he and Erina Nakiri can find a mountain and dig a hole. What zombies can kill him?

  How could there be a zombie that could kill him? !

  impossible!

  No!

  It doesn't exist!

  Could it be that these zombies can also attack from a distance and produce explosions more powerful than TNT?

  A joyful smile appeared on Li Ke's face.

  Of course, Li Ke still needs to be on guard. Everything is possible in the game world, but it does not prevent him from imagining the future with such a good mood.

  Li Ke walked into the store with joy. He looked at the young lady who was still in disheveled and swallowed subconsciously, but still quickly opened her inventory and sold all the 19 gold bars he found to the young lady.

  In an instant, the Duke Casino tokens he held reached a staggering 2,400!

  Then, Li Ke directly bought all the honey!

  Looking at the seven bottles of honey in his inventory, Li Ke's heart finally settled down completely.

  Only at this time did he have time to look at other things.

  Then, the high price directly discouraged him.

  Li Ke had to face the fact that he was poor.
