Chapter 96 - Exploring Prison No. 1

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio  Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

After receiving the news from Fang Heng, Chen Yu gathered his team and waited for orders in front of Prison No. 1.

Not long after, Fang Heng came over with a key.

“Did you get used to staying here last night?”

“Of course, the environment here is much better than the federation warehouse resource point.”

If he had a choice, Chen Yu hoped that he could stay here forever.

“Fang Heng, why did you arrange to meet here? Are you planning to attack Prison No. 1 first?”

“You guessed right.”

Chen Yu felt strange. Normally, shouldn’t they start with a simple plan?

They had agreed that Fang Heng would be in charge of the prison operation, so Chen Yu didn’t ask any questions. He just waved his hand, indicating for the federal team to cooperate.

“From the information we got, there are Tier 2 mutated zombies in Prison No. 1. It’s very difficult to deal with them. We need to be fully prepared.”

“Okay. This time, we’ll go in and explore, and check out the type and number of Tier 2 mutated zombies inside.”

“Okay.”

Fang Heng took out the key and walked to the gate that was tightly bound by the iron chain.

“Click!”

Using the key to open the iron lock on the chain, Fang Heng used all his strength to pull off the chain.

The federal team stood behind Fang Heng separately and gathered together in a vigilant posture.

“Bang!”

The heavy iron chain was removed and thrown to the ground.

Fang Heng pulled out his machete and carefully pushed open the gate of Prison No. 1.

The inside of the prison building was completely silent.

It was a chaotic scene. All kinds of tables were overturned on the ground and paper was scattered all over the ground.

Dried blood stains could be seen everywhere.

It was certain that there had been riots here before.

Strangely, the entire prison building was extremely quiet.

Fang Heng turned his head and looked at Chen Yu.

“Is there something wrong?”

“Yes.”

Chen Yu also felt that something was wrong, so he explained in a low voice.

“I’m not too sure about the specifics either. Prison No. 507’s mission was obtained by the federation from other sources.”

“We know the least about this part of the mission in Prison No. 1. We only know that we can find a magnetic card here that corresponds to the electronic lock that can open the underground passage.”

“There’s a serious lack of information about this part of the mission process. There’s also the possibility of errors in the before and after mission lines.”

“The intelligence department believes that these differences may be caused by subtle changes between the various servers.”

Fang Heng nodded to show that he understood.

“Let’s go in and take a look.”

Chen Yu became more and more alert. He gestured to his team members behind him.

The 20-man federal team covered each other as they entered the prison together.

Soon, they arrived at a fork in the hallway.

One led to the prison area, and the other led to the isolation infirmary in the management area.

Chen Yu looked at Fang Heng and asked, “Are we going to the infirmary first?”

“No, we’re going to the second floor first.”

“The second floor?”

“Yes, I received news that there’s a safe in the firearms room on the second floor. The magnetic card is stored in the safe.”

“Alright, then let’s go to the second floor to investigate first.”

Chen Yu raised his eyebrows.

He was a little curious as to where Fang Heng got the news from.

Now was not the time to discuss this issue. He waved his hand and the federal team began to move. They began to explore the stairs on the right side one after another.

The team carefully went up to the corridor on the second floor and slowly moved forward along the corridor leading to the management area on the second floor.

Fang Heng and Chen Yu were at the front of the team.

They didn’t encounter any zombies along the way.

Chen Yu said in a low voice, “It’s so quiet all the way. There must be something strange.”

“Yeah.”

Fang Heng had the same thought.

While they were exploring, Fang Heng suddenly felt goosebumps all over his body.

He suddenly felt a sense of danger approaching.

The sense of danger came from the right.

Fang Heng suddenly turned his head around.

On the right was a glass window of a meeting room. The shutters were tightly shut, so he could not see what was inside the room.

“Chi! Chi Chi!!”

Fang Heng’s sharp senses could hear something rapidly moving against the wall.

The sound was also coming from behind the glass window.

And it was getting closer!

“Be careful!!!”

Chen Yu was stunned.

“Bang!”

The glass window exploded with a “bang”.

A red shadow dashed out from the broken window and pounced on Chen Yu.

Sharp white claws were sticking out.

Fang Heng shouted.

“Get down!”

Chen Yu’s reaction speed was extremely fast. Out of Fang Heng’s trust, the moment he heard Fang Heng’s shout, he immediately took the safest position to protect himself.

He turned his body sideways and rolled on the ground.

Fang Heng, who was standing behind Chen Yu, raised his shotgun.

The muzzle of the shotgun was aimed at the approaching dark red creature.

“Bang!”

Fang Heng pulled the trigger.

The shotgun hit the target accurately!

The red creature flew backwards.

“It’s the Licker!”

Someone immediately cried out in alarm.

The Licker!

It was the most difficult creature to deal with among the Tier 2 zombies.

Fang Heng’s pupils constricted.

His mind was immediately flooded with memories about the Licker.

The Licker was different from ordinary zombies. It was an unstable experimental product created by injecting the T-virus directly into a living body.

It was specially cultivated and manufactured by Meteorite Company. During the cultivation stage, Meteorite Company researchers would directly feed it with live DNA.

After the living test subject absorbed enough nutrients, the T-virus continued to manifest, causing the test subject’s skin to fall off and the muscle tissue to grow abnormally.

After the skin fell off, the subject gradually lost the function and purpose of the human “hand”, and the forelimbs mutated into claws.

Due to the change in shape, Meteorite Company named it-the Licker.

They are better at hunting than humans!

Lickers are good at moving and hunting in places such as ceilings, walls and so on.

Their weakness is their head and exposed heart!

Most Lickers were in a crouching position, which made it easier to protect the heart.

Heart!

Brain!

Fang Heng’s gaze focused on the two fatal points of the Licker.

The Licker was hit by a shotgun at close range, and the huge sound wave and impact sent the Licker back into a short-term stun state.

The Licker revealed its heart in the reclining state!

Fang Heng pulled out his machete.

Ever since the end of his trip to Hope Town, after a period of hacking, Fang Heng’s A-level skill, strengthen the body, had been upgraded to Level 10!

Level 10 skills increased Fang Heng’s basic strength and physique attributes by an additional 7 points!

He had also finished the gene enhancer that Qiu Yaokang had given him. All three of his basic attributes had been increased to a maximum of 5 points.

With the addition of his basic strength training, Fang Heng’s strength had now reached 19 points!

It was almost four times the strength of an ordinary player!

Grabbing the Licker’s stiff back, Fang Heng took a quick step forward, brandished his machete and slashed forward with all his strength!

“Chi!”

The machete slashed downwards from top to bottom and left a huge gash on the Licker’s body.

The slash directly cut the exposed heart in half.

“Plop!”

The Licker fell to the ground.

It struggled on the ground for a moment, and its body gradually became stiff. Its limbs showed strange distortions, and it curled up into a ball.

[Hint: You have killed a Tier 2 mutated zombie-the Licker. You have obtained a complete evolution crystal.. You have obtained 20 survival points.]
