Today is the nineteenth day of the game. Tomorrow we will face the second zombie wave, so we need to make good preparations.

With the idea of ​​being prepared for any eventuality, Xiao Qi decided to use as many props as possible and set up more lines of defense to ensure safety.

After checking his supplies, Xiao Qi picked out some items that could be used for defense.

Advanced animal traps, gully traps*5, Molotov cocktails, cactus blocks, thorn blocks, these are some of the supplies I have. In addition, after learning advanced carpentry, I can also make some simple wooden defense props, such as wooden spikes, wooden fences, etc.

Xiao Qi first placed the gully trap at the location closest to his shelter, and filled it with cactus blocks and thorn blocks. Then there was a circle of cactus blocks, a circle of thorn blocks, a wooden fence outside the blocks, a circle of animal traps outside the fence, and then ground spikes behind.

All the props were used up clearly. Cactus blocks and thorn blocks were used up directly, and the ground spikes and fences consumed 100 magic spruce. The fences made of magic spruce have higher defense, and the ground spikes have higher damage. There is no need to save at this time, so Xiao Qi used magic spruce to make them all.

The Molotov cocktails will be saved for use after the zombie tide arrives, and the automatic scanning laser turrets are also filled with a lot of teleportation essence.

After arranging the defense of the shelter, it was already noon. Xiao Qi returned to the shelter to rest. He still did not plan to go out today.

Tomorrow there will be a zombie tide, and the day after tomorrow it will be time for the weekly group activity. I don’t know what the content of this activity will be.

Being able to eat a bowl of hot spicy mixed food in the dungeon yesterday was an extremely happy thing for Xiao Qi. Therefore, he also realized how important it was to prepare some ready-made food. Since he didn’t plan to go out this afternoon, he could just cook more dishes and save them for later consumption.

I currently have the most fruits on me, so I can pick up some of them and eat them. They can not only replenish nutrition and water, but also serve as snacks.

Xiao Qi picked out five dragon fruits, five pears, nine apples, seven bananas, and thirteen strawberries, and also contributed the half pineapple he hadn't finished eating and the only whole watermelon he had. He then cooked the two kilograms of taro balls he had gotten before and added them in. There was not enough yogurt, only five bags, but in the end, it still made up twenty servings of fruit salad.

Then Xiao Qi cooked all the ten boxes of frozen dumplings he had obtained earlier and divided them into ten portions so that he would not have to cook them when he was outside.

Halfway through his work, Xiao Qi began to hear a series of pinned messages.

There weren't many people Xiao Qi pinned, so she quickly stopped what she was doing to check the messages. Only then did she discover that Zhuang Jing, who she hadn't contacted for a few days, had actually taken the initiative to talk to her.

"Xiao Qi, thank you for encouraging me to go out and explore. In addition to killing zombies, I also explored several nearby places and got a lot of good things. Especially this [Energy Converter - Put any item in to evaluate its energy and generate energy crystals. Energy crystals can be used as energy providers for various devices]."

"I don't have any device that requires energy, and I'm reluctant to bring anything in as fuel. You should need it, right?"

As expected of Zhuang Jing, this thing came back as a king bomb after so many days. The value of this thing is self-evident. Xiao Qi knew how valuable it was just by looking at the introduction. Zhuang Jing's saying that she didn't need it was just an excuse. Even if it was of little use to her, she could sell it or keep it for future use. She was not a person who was in great need of food and water now, so she didn't need to exchange this for a bite to eat.

The reason she said this was simply because Xiao Qi gave her the weapon and she wanted to thank Xiao Qi.

Xiao Qi was indeed very tempted by this thing, and it was inevitable that he would take it, but he would not take advantage of Zhuang Jing. He must give her enough supplies, otherwise it would easily affect future transactions. Besides, her favorite food seemed to be desserts? He could also give her a small bribe.

"This is indeed a good thing. Do you want some supplies? Let's trade."

"It's all thanks to your encouragement that I was able to go out this time, so this is a thank you gift, you don't have to give me anything."

Zhuang Jing was extremely sincere and obviously didn't really want anything.

"No, I can't take your things for free. Food, materials, special items, make a wish, maybe I really have them."

"In that case, I'll make a wish that I can survive the next zombie wave!"

Xiao Qi was slightly stunned. He didn't expect Zhuang Jing to say such a thing. Logically speaking, with so many supplies, it shouldn't be difficult for her to survive, right? Without waiting for Xiao Qi to ask, Zhuang Jing sent the energy converter directly to him, free of charge.

"To be honest, I chose to sleep outdoors this time and returned to the shelter today. But I didn't expect that when I came back, my shelter was no longer accessible... There were several shelters around my shelter that I had never seen before. They used fences to enclose my shelter, forming an area similar to a building complex. I observed that there were burly men inside, almost all of them were over 1.8 meters tall, and they were well organized and disciplined, not like a temporary team."

Xiao Qi frowned, while Zhuang Jing's hands were shaking as she squatted in the room typing.

"I feel like they are coming for me. I seem to have heard them talking about why the owner of the shelter hasn't come back yet. I don't know if they want to rob me or what. Anyway, I have no way to go back now, so I had to find a building at random. There happened to be a relatively clean room here. I have been hiding here for a while. I don't know how to face the zombie tide tomorrow..."

It is unbelievable that someone would actually surround someone else's shelter, but it also seems to make sense.

There are many people who make a living by robbing others. Some of them choose to directly look for players who come out to look for supplies on the road, and some of them directly wait near other people's shelters. If these people hand over the supplies, they will let them go. If they are unwilling to hand them over, they will be blocked in the shelter and unable to go out to look for supplies.

It seems that what Zhuang Jing encountered was similar to the latter, but no one knows whether he will survive if he hands over the supplies. Therefore, the best way to deal with such people is to resist. Otherwise, there will be endless troubles. They may be treated as ATMs and exploited every day.

"Don't worry, how many people are there and what do they look like? Did you take any pictures?"

"I took pictures. Each of them had a weapon. My fighting ability was very low. I couldn't beat them at all, and I didn't dare to resist..."

Zhuang Jing sent a picture, which showed that there were about five shelters near Zhuang Jing's shelter, forming a circle to block her way. Six men were sitting together outside, all of them looked to be in their thirties, and each of them had a fine long knife on his waist.

"You did the right thing. We shouldn't resist rashly at a time like this. At least we need to find out their situation first. Don't go back to the shelter for now. Come and hide from the zombies tomorrow. In exchange, I will accept your energy conversion device."

In the current situation, if I don't take Zhuang Jing in, she will definitely not survive tomorrow. The second zombie tide will definitely be more ferocious than the first. By then, the surrounding zombies will search for nearby players. Zhuang Jing will only have a dead end if she hides in the original room in the world, and I don't want to lose the source of supplies from this rich woman.

What's more, after so many days of contact, Xiao Qi already had an understanding of what kind of person Zhuang Jing was. It was not difficult to just take her in for a day.

Zhuang Jing actually had no intention of letting Xiao Qi take her in. After all, no one would want others to enter their shelter, let alone a powerful guy like Xiao Qi. She just felt that she would not live long, and since Xiao Qi asked, she couldn't help but tell the truth, and she could also leave her last words.

The last words were already in the input box and about to be sent, but Xiao Qi's consolation reached her first.

Zhuang Jing didn't want to cry, but she couldn't hold it back at this moment.

She didn't want to die, and she didn't argue with Xiao Qi. In the end, she repeatedly typed and deleted the words, leaving only the two words "thank you".
