[Hint: During the period when you are offline, your zombie group has completed 166 tree felling. You have obtained skill-strengthen the body experience points +882. You have obtained 4,992 logging experience points.]

[Hint: Your logging level has been upgraded to Level 10.]

[Hint: Your skill-Miner’s Wisdom level has been upgraded to Level 7.]

Inside the abandoned mine, Fang Heng checked the rewards from the hack.

Ordinary iron ores needed to be calcined by a furnace to form iron nuggets, which took a lot of time.

The hack had only obtained 121 iron nuggets for almost a whole day.

With iron nuggets, he could upgrade low-level tools to make iron tools.

“Good! We have officially entered the Iron Age!”

Fang Heng muttered to himself as an automatic channelling bar appeared above his head.

He created a small iron hammer!

[Hint: You have completed the creation of a small iron hammer. Your basic production experience points +11.]

After the production was completed, Fang Heng waved the newly created small iron hammer in his hands a few times.

Item: Small iron hammer.

Damage: 10-12.

Description: An advanced survival tool. It can be used to destroy and disassemble more efficiently.

Description: An advanced version of the ‘Hammer of God’. In theory, you can use it to break apart everything!

Fang Heng put away the iron hammer in satisfaction.

He could first craft an iron axe to increase his logging efficiency as much as possible and complete the federation’s delivery mission.

An iron axe for logging required two sets of iron nuggets.

The current amount of iron nuggets was enough to equip an entire zombie team.

As for making an iron hammer to demolish the surrounding area, he decided to put it aside for a few days.

Currently, due to the limited number of furnaces, a large portion of the iron ore had already been piled up and couldn’t be calcined in time.

Fang Heng simply left the last two zombie clones to control the furnace, bringing the zombie clones and the completed iron pieces back to the prison.

When they returned to the prison, batches of logs were already piled up in the prison square.

“This batch of toolmakers did a good job.”

Fang Heng murmured and walked to a pile of logs.

Item: Logs.

Quality: Level 2 (normal).

Description: The products of cutting down trees can be made into wooden planks, firewood and so on.

The quality of logs in the game was divided into five grades, from low to high.

Grade 1 was inferior, Grade 2 was ordinary, Grade 3 was better, Grade 4 was excellent and Grade 5 was perfect.

The higher the quality of the logs, the higher the quality of the wood made.

In the early stages, buildings made of high-quality wood could withstand higher damage.

In addition, in the later stages of the game, some high-level items would be limited to the use of high-level raw materials.

For example, in the middle stages of the game, commonly used materials: reinforced solid wooden planks.

Its synthetic materials were: wooden planks (Grade 4 or Grade 5)*5 + glue*2 + waste compound*2.

When the reinforced solid wooden planks were completed, they could provide three times the durability of ordinary wooden planks.

Currently, most of the logs piled up on the prison grounds were Grade 1-3, whereas Grade 4-5 was quite rare.

The wooden plank requirement list of the federation didn’t specify the quality of the logs. One set of logs was equal to one sum of money.

“There’s a loophole!”

Fang Heng rubbed his hands.

Since the price was the same, he would naturally hand over the low-quality logs to the federation first. He would keep the good ones for himself.

There was nothing wrong with that!

Fang Heng still controlled the zombie crowd and divided it into two groups.

One group of zombies used the newly made iron axes and continued to cut the trees in the east direction with the prison as the centre.

The other group of zombies stayed in the prison square and started to make wooden planks.

Without steel blocks, Fang Heng could not make a sawing table for the time being. He could only use the most basic manual method to make wooden planks.

For most ordinary players, making 10 wooden planks a day would consume all of their vitality points.

However, the zombie clones were different.

They had unlimited vitality points!

Four zombies were responsible for moving the logs back and forth, and three zombies were responsible for moving the finished wood planks and piling them up in the corner of the prison square.

The remaining zombie clones lined up in a row, and the assembly line began to make the wooden planks.

Fang Heng spent a full half an hour completing the single-threaded zombie planning, forming a perfect assembly line that adjusted the efficiency of the zombies to the highest.

“Good! The wooden plank production line is completed!” Fang Heng felt satisfied.

He wiped the sweat off his forehead and let out a huge sigh of relief as a sense of achievement rose in his heart.

According to this efficiency, it wouldn’t take five days at all. He estimated that he could complete 15,000 wooden planks at most within two days!

…

The next day.

Liu Wei and the few rookies entered Team 12 of the company to work.

They entered the game together and headed to the restaurant on the first floor to eat breakfast together.

They still wanted a free breakfast.

In the game, as long as the basic ingredients were prepared properly, even if it was a Level 1 cooking skill, the food prepared according to the recipe would still be very delicious.

While they were eating, the few rookies whispered to each other.

“That fatty is a liar.”

“Who says he isn’t? In the future, if anyone tells me that picking up logs is easy, I promise to slap them in the face!”

That’s right! That da*n fatty!

Liu Wei nodded in his heart.

He even said that picking up logs was easy.

What a joke!

After picking up logs for nearly an entire afternoon yesterday, everyone’s back was aching and their legs were cramping.

Liu Wei was even worse off. He didn’t sleep well last night and even carried logs in his dreams!

“But we should be able to take a break today.”

“That’s right. We’ve already picked up so many logs. If we continue, the entire prison square might not be able to hold them.”

“I was thinking that the task the team leader received was to transport the wooden planks. Why would he need so many logs? The federation doesn’t even accept them…”

“Don’t tell me he wants us to produce the wooden planks with our hands later?”

“Produce them with our hands? Are you kidding me? How many can we produce with our hands alone?”

“Let’s hear what the team leader has to say. The team leader should have a plan…”

While they were talking in low voices, they heard footsteps approaching from afar and they stopped talking at the same time.

“Hey, everyone is here. It must have been tough yesterday. Boss Fang said that you guys can have a share of the mission performance when we go back.”

Liao Bufan walked into the restaurant.

He was in a good mood.

He used to do the heavy work of moving wooden planks. Now that he had these toolmen, he could finally watch others do the work.

“We have to work hard today. After dinner, we’ll go downstairs and help load the goods.”

Load the goods?

The rookies looked confused.

Liu Wei murmured in his heart.

Sell the logs directly?

It’s not impossible…

But this server is a little strange, the world is full of randomly picked logs.

Are you sure these logs can be sold for money?
