“Brother Snake, look, I told you I wasn’t lying, right? The prison has been occupied by players.”

Outside the prison, in the shadows of the forest, Prisoner Snake was holding a pair of toy binoculars to check the situation inside the prison.

Yesterday, when Prisoner Snake heard from his subordinate that the prison had been occupied, his first reaction was disbelief.

What a joke! There were so many zombies in the prison. How could they suddenly disappear?

After repeatedly confirming the accuracy of the information, Prisoner Snake brought his elite troops to investigate the situation.

“Well done. You’ve done a great job.”

Prisoner Snake put away his toy binoculars and revealed a cruel smile.

How the zombies disappeared was no longer important.

What was important was that he found a “fat sheep”.

The group of subordinates he gathered were all players with combat talents.

These men were good fighters but they were weak in survival and constructing skills.

In the beginning, the team did develop as Prisoner Snake had planned. They robbed other players to get resources.

But after a while, Prisoner Snake discovered a problem.

They had robbed most of the players around them.

Some died, some fled.

Now, not to mention resources, Prisoner Snake and his men could not even solve the problem of food.

Without food, the team’s morale drop day by day. Prisoner Snake became very anxious as a result.

Good!

This prison was an opportunity given to him by God!

Prisoner Snake thought to himself.

There would be no lack of materials in such a large prison.

As long as the players living in the prison were driven out, they could then occupy the prison.

In the future, he could even use the prison as a starting point to establish a massive force!

Unknowingly, Prisoner Snake’s ambition swelled up once again.

He had long been unhappy with the small cabin he used to live in!

“Brother Snake, the prison’s defence seems to be built pretty well.”

“Tsk, so what if it’s built pretty well? Isn’t it built for us? Do I have to thank them?”

Prisoner Snake sneered in disdain and gave his subordinates a disgusted look.

“Brothers! Come with me!”

The players took out their weapons and swaggered toward the prison together with Prisoner Snake.

Prisoner Snake was the first to walk to the side of the barbed wire outside the prison.

He raised his leg and kicked forward fiercely.

“Bang!”

The barbed wire made a sound and shook heavily. Its durability dropped by 2 points.

“Hmph!”

Prisoner Snake snorted coldly.

Seeing that the players in the prison didn’t have any reaction, Prisoner Snake waved his hand and said, “Smash them all.”

“Okay!”

Behind him, Prisoner Snake’s subordinates raised their stone hammers and smashed at the barbed wire fence on the outermost layer of the prison.

“Clang! Clang! Clang!”

Under the attack of the stone hammers, the barbed wire fence shook and made loud noises.

Prisoner Snake looked at the three buildings in the prison. His eyes were filled with greed.

He was going to take over this prison!

The excited Prisoner Snake and his subordinates did not notice anything.

At this moment, in the forest behind them, two pairs of eyes were staring at them.

“The God is going to be in trouble.”

Lu Yu crouched in the bushes and carefully observed Prisoner Snake and the others.

“I know the leader. His nickname is Prisoner Snake. He is a mercenary with a bad reputation. I heard that over the past few days, quite several players’ residences nearby have been attacked by them.”

“Chi, a bunch of scumbags.” Zhou Yi did not have a good impression of these people. He asked in a low voice, “How many can you handle?”

Lu Yu had combat-type talent skills. He re-examined the enemies.

“They have too many people. We can only take down two with a sneak attack.”

“Okay, let’s not expose ourselves yet. Send a message to the God. Later, we can coordinate with him. We can attack from the outside while they attack from the inside.”

“Okay.”

Lu Yu nodded. He turned on the survival radio and sent an urgent message to Fang Heng.

…

Fang Heng had just returned to the prison’s Building No. 3 from the apocalypse merchant camp not long ago.

He was making arrangements for the three newly recruited mercenaries in the basement warehouse.

Pistols, bullets, prison guard uniforms, explosion-proof shields…

All of them were going to be deployed!

Prison guard uniforms were collected from the prison’s changing room.

After wearing the full set, it could increase the accuracy of all firearms by 2%. The explosion-proof shield did not have any attribute bonus, but it could block part of the attack.

Fang Heng did not wear it.

The main reason was that he found the uniform too ugly and bloated.

Moreover, he would not personally participate in the battle.

In addition, Level 5 mercenaries were temporarily unable to be equipped with sniper rifles.

What a pity that no one could use a sniper rifle yet.

Perhaps after completing the mission of the Dark Knights, only mercenaries with higher levels could use a sniper rifle.

Fang Heng was giving orders to the three mercenaries to patrol and guard the prison when he suddenly noticed the emergency communication on the survival radio.

He opened the survival radio.

Lu Yu: “God, there are people causing trouble outside the prison! It’s Prisoner Snake’s group. They’ve destroyed many players’ residences before, and many people are coming this time. They don’t come with good intentions, you all have to be careful!”

Lu Yu: “We’re hiding in the forest behind them now. We are waiting for your command. Call me if you’re about to make a move.”

Prisoner Snake? Is it the group that was preparing to attack the small cabin earlier on?

Fang Heng had some impression.

Did they come looking for him so quickly?

He quickly replied with a message.

Fang Heng: “Roger, hide first and wait for my news.”

Fang Heng turned off the survival radio and called for the three mercenaries to follow. He was prepared to go out and meet Prisoner Snake and his group of intruders.

“Boss!”

Before Fang Heng could leave, Liao Bufan pushed open the door of the warehouse basement.

“Boss, we’re in trouble. Prisoner Snake and the others are here again! These b*st*rds are bullying us…”

Liao Bufan’s voice became weaker as he spoke.

“F*ck!? Mercenary!?”

Liao Bufan thought he was seeing things. He rubbed his eyes.

He wasn’t seeing things!

They were mercenaries!

“You… finished building the shelter?”

“Yeah, just finished. I didn’t have time to tell you. It’s just next door.”

Fang Heng patted Liao Bufan on the shoulder and said, “Come, let’s go out and see Prisoner Snake. I’ll show you around later.”

Liao Bufan stood there in a daze.

For a moment, the number of years flashed through his mind.

Big Brother finished building the shelter?

There seemed to be a game notification in the morning that a player had taken the lead in building a super-large shelter.

Now, the players were guessing who had completed this shelter.

It was very strange that no gaming company, gaming club or game guild had come forward to claim such an easy advertising opportunity…

In the past two days, Big Brother had also collected and manufactured a large number of wooden planks and nails…

Liao Bufan thought about it and quickly connected the three things.

Could it be…

Liao Bufan knocked his head.

It must be it!

The first person to build a super-large shelter was Fang Heng, right!

God! Big Brother was indeed powerful!

Not only did he complete the shelter, but he even got the mercenaries in just one morning!

“Wait for me!”

When he came back to his senses, Liao Bufan saw that Fang Heng had already disappeared at the entrance of the passageway, so he hurriedly chased after him.
