Chapter 5: Zombies

Su Yan had secretly considered various ways to leave the company, but if he wanted to be completely free, he had to be free in the game as well, and he really couldn't think of any way to escape from this deep underground environment with a game pod more than one person high.

At the moment, the only thing you can do seems to be mining and waiting for the right time......

The job of mining in the game is really simple, but another simple explanation is that it is boring.

According to the experience of the old miners, mining alone is the most efficient, so basically everyone is looking for a suitable place to dig in the huge mine.

After getting used to being a miner and digging near the entrance of the mine for two days, and feeling that there was indeed no danger, Li Jian decided to go to the depths of the mine like those old miners, after all, the deeper you go, the easier it is to dig the ore, and the grade of the ore is also higher, and the harvest is much higher than digging near the entrance.

However, Jiang Yue, who was originally the most cautious, had already begun to enter the depths of the mine to mine as early as the second day, and worked at least sixteen or seventeen hours a day, and it seemed that this handsome girl was also quite short of money.

"Sure enough, people ......died for money," Su Yan muttered, but he couldn't help but go to the deeper cave, the ore from the entrance was really pitiful, even with his luck value far higher than the others, it was difficult to dig much.

Su Yan lit a candle and randomly picked a fork to enter, in order to avoid getting lost, he chose to take the left every time he encountered a fork, and at the same time left a mark on the rock wall of the intersection.

This is naturally also the experience passed down by those old miners, in this underground labyrinth-like mine, zombies as low-level monsters of the game are not very scary, although the attack of the mine zombies is too powerful for them miners, but the slow speed of the zombies is also its biggest weakness, as long as it can be found in time, it can generally escape, and the real deadly danger is - getting lost.

The company has been operating the mine for many years, but it still hasn't been able to fully explore the huge underground mine, and if you get lost in the cave, you will probably never get out of it.

It was really easier to dig ore in the depths of the mine, and Su Yan didn't go far before he harvested a piece of black iron ore.

Digging all the way around, maybe today is really a lucky day, and I have continued to harvest, and even got a piece of fourth-level ore.

According to the ore price catalogue provided by the company, the purchase price of a piece of grade 4 ore is 5,000 yuan...... No wonder those old miners know the secret of this game, and they are still willing to mine here, as long as their luck does not decline to the extreme, there is basically no problem with earning 20,000 yuan a month, which is far more than the salary of ordinary white-collar workers.

The sack behind him became heavier and heavier, but Su Yan's heart was becoming more and more excited, and he was calculating his income this month, but there seemed to be some strange footsteps in the darkness ahead.

Did you meet other colleagues?

"Who's in front?" Su Yan raised the candle high and asked.

No one answered in the darkness, only the footsteps getting closer.

"Oops!" Looking at the pitch-black mine cave in front of him, Su Yanxin couldn't help but tremble, there was only one thing in the depths of this mine that didn't need candles......

Sure enough, a vague humanoid silhouette soon appeared in the darkness, and the hideous face could be faintly seen in the candlelight...... Hollow eye sockets, rotten to the point that only half of the jaw remains.

Corpse!

Su Yan gasped, should he be lucky or unlucky, according to the fat man, the probability of encountering zombies is about the same as winning five million, and he won five million so quickly?!

Although he still didn't believe that playing this game would lead to death in reality, in the face of this extremely realistic zombie, Su Yan couldn't help but feel inexplicable fear in his heart, and almost without hesitation, he threw down the sack full of ore and turned around and fled.

The speed of the zombie was really not fast, and the footsteps of the zombie with some friction followed behind him for a while, and then finally fell silent.

However, before Su Yan could catch his breath, he soon discovered that he had encountered a terrible thing...... He's lost!

When I ran away in panic just now, I forgot to distinguish the direction in a hurry, but now I don't know which fork in the road I went to, and there are zombies chasing after me, and it is impossible to go back the way I came.

"But don't really be unable to get out...... Su Yan looked around with anxiety in his heart, the faint light of the candle in the darkness could only barely illuminate the distance of one or two meters in front of him.

"Anyone?" Su Yan shouted a few times in the dark, his voice had begun to tremble, he didn't want to be lost in this mine for the rest of his life.

No one answered in the dark, but there seemed to be footsteps ahead, and it was estimated that there were other old miners mining nearby.

"I'm a new miner, Su Yan, I got lost in the cave, can you take me out of the cave......" Su Yan hurriedly shouted towards the place where the footsteps sounded.

The only sound of monotonous footsteps answered him in the dark tunnel, but it was getting closer and closer, and the special grinding sound could be faintly heard.

"It's zombies again!" Su Yan shivered violently, and the hairs on his body almost fell to the tree, and with the experience just now, he already knew that it was the sound of zombies dragging on the ground due to their inflexible movements.

Didn't the damn fat man say that the chance of encountering zombies in the mine is the same as winning five million, is this the rhythm of ten million in a row?

Su Yan calmed down a little so that his legs didn't tremble too much, and then he reluctantly turned around and started to run away.

However, he couldn't help but stop after running a few steps, and the unique footsteps of the zombie sounded in front of him, but it was the zombie who chased him all the way.

Is this surrounded...... Su Yan suddenly felt a little desperate in his heart, it was impossible to fight with zombies, according to the information given by those old miners, the health of zombies ranged from 100-150, and the attacks reached more than 20, with his own 40 points of health only enough for zombies to attack twice, and his basic attack was only a pitiful 1 point, and the pickaxe in his hand only had 1-2 attacks, which was almost the same as tickling on zombies.

When he was desperate, with the help of the faint candlelight, Su Yan found that there was a fork in the road next to it, although it was very narrow, but he couldn't care about it so much at the moment, so he immediately bent down and got in.

"Damn...... Who is so lazy that he only dug half of it! Su Yan just advanced a few meters and found that there was a dead end in front of him, it is estimated that a certain miner found a small ore vein here and dug it casually, but at this time, it was a big pit for him.

However, it is impossible to turn back at this time, and the footsteps of zombies are close at hand.

"I hope that dead fat man is a liar, this is not really a death game......" Su Yan had to curl up in the small hole and didn't dare to move at all, only the hand holding the pickaxe was trembling slightly.

The noise at the entrance of the cave was getting louder and louder, and both zombies had apparently chased after the small hole.

Unexpectedly, Su Yan waited anxiously for a while, but he didn't expect the zombie to pounce on him.

Su Yan settled down, and under the candlelight of a bean, he saw a few rotten zombie legs outside the cave mouth walking back and forth, but he was never able to enter the cave.

Zombies don't even bend over!

Su Yan quickly discovered the reason why zombies couldn't enter the cave, and he was suddenly surprised, sure enough, it was the road to the sky, and his high luck attribute was still somewhat useful after all.

But what is frustrating is that although the zombie can't get in, it doesn't want to leave, and has been stuck in the hole and lingering.

Aren't you going to starve to death in this mine if you haven't been killed by zombies......

Su Yan gritted his teeth, trembling and slammed his hoe at the thigh of the zombie who was wandering around the entrance of the cave.
