That cold gleam was precisely the tip of the spear.
With just a door between them and at such a close distance, one could hit the target even with eyes closed.
Puff!
The spear stabbed into the muscular man's chest.
The moment it hit, the spear was pulled out, bringing out a spray of blood, and then the second attack followed immediately.
Puff!
This time, it was again the chest.
The muscular man, having been stabbed continuously, just then came to his senses, with a look of shock on his face.
He hadn't expected that Chen Bei inside the room would be so ruthless...
This was just the beginning.
Within a few seconds, Chen Bei inside the room had a cold expression on his face and repeated the same action many times.
Pull out, stab, pull out, stab...
Puff!
This time it plunged into the stomach. The places that had been stabbed before started bleeding.
Puff!
Again it was the stomach. It had a large area and was easy to hit, and the feel of stabbing into it was particularly satisfying.
Puff!
This attack was rather risky, aiming at the neck. The aim wasn't quite accurate and it was a bit off, but it still cut through the skin and flesh.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The remaining attacks were just random stabs.
Chen Bei noticed that each of his attacks would consume the value of "Stamina".
When hitting the enemy, corresponding damage numbers popped up, ranging from 15 to 30 each time.
The other party only had 100 health points in total, and the damage had already exceeded that long ago.
The muscular man stared with his eyes wide open, his mouth opening and closing, blood foaming out of it, making muffled sounds.
He staggered a couple of steps and fell to the ground.
Before, they had just suspected that Chen Bei had killed someone.
Now he had confirmed it with his own life.
At the same time, it also proved a saying: Don't push people too far!
The several people beside watched as the muscular man was killed and his body fell to the ground, with the blood being glaringly red.
"Ah!"
"Someone's been killed!"
"Help! Someone's killing people!"
The several people scattered like birds and beasts. Some were so scared that their faces turned deathly pale and they slumped to the ground, while others slipped away quickly.
In peacetime, the act of killing someone was too remote for most people.
Seeing with one's own eyes that one person killed another, one could imagine the impact.
Killing someone oneself had an even greater impact on oneself.
Chen Bei's vision blurred and double images appeared before his eyes, giving him a sense of unreality like a daydream.
I've killed someone?
Is this real?
Chen Bei tried hard to come to terms with this fact. Step by step, he walked to the door, looking at the body on the ground and the spreading bright red blood.
Ironically, he had just gained experience points from killing.
[Killed the target and gained 5 experience points. 10 more experience points are needed to reach the next level.]
Killing a Level 1 human could get 5 experience points.
By killing two more people, Chen Bei could level up.
Sometimes, the abyss is right under your feet. Once you take a step, it's a point of no return and there's no turning back.
"You forced me to do this."
Chen Bei had a gloomy expression on his face as he looked at the body in the pool of blood.
Just now, the muscular man had come to pick a fight with a group of people, looking menacing.
If Chen Bei had shown weakness, the consequences would have been unimaginable. So he took decisive action and chose to fight back vigorously.
Some things, once they happen, they just happen.
This was the first time, but it definitely wouldn't be the last!
—
Inside the management group.
The fact that Chen Bei had killed someone attracted the attention and high praise of the administrators.
[Haha, finally someone's dead! It's a survival game. How can it work without anyone dying?]
[I'm more and more optimistic about this player named Zero Degree. He's decisive and ruthless enough.]
[I hope he can go a bit further.]
On the other side, in the player group chat, it also caused a huge stir.
Many people were talking in the group chat, confirming this incident.
[Someone's killed! I saw it with my own eyes!]
[It was the person in Room 815 who did it!]
[Everyone must be careful of the person in Room 815. He's a madman.]
While talking about the topic of killing, someone also mentioned a piece of information.
Someone smashed a wooden chair and got 1 unit of timber.
This piece of information wasn't as thrilling as the killing, but it caught Chen Bei's attention.
Because Chen Bei was currently in desperate need of timber!
Making a wooden shield and upgrading the Level 2 door both required timber.
Chen Bei hadn't managed to get any timber before.
"So this is how timber is obtained. Just smash the chairs."
"Reasonable!"
Chen Bei had a goal in mind. He pulled himself together and left the gloom brought by the killing behind.
Now wasn't the time to dwell on those things.
If he wasted time, maybe he himself would be the next one to become a corpse.
Chen Bei went out with his equipment and locked his door.
He looked at the body lying at the door and thought it was a bit troublesome.
What if the corpse attracted zombies?
After all, it was a fresh corpse.
Perhaps it was very attractive to zombies.
Thinking of this, Chen Bei simply dragged the body away and stuffed it into an empty dormitory across the hall.
After that, he started to search for timber. In one dormitory, he found a wooden chair, picked it up and started smashing it on the ground with a bang.
This was really a laborious task. The chair was of good quality and he had to smash it many, many times before it broke.
The broken chair automatically transformed into a bundle of timber and fell to the ground.
Chen Bei picked it up and put it into his dimensional backpack.
Finally, he had a portion of timber!
"It seems that the ordinary group chat sometimes has important information too. I have to pay attention to both sides."
Chen Bei thought to himself.
This portion of timber was far from enough.
Chen Bei continued to look for more timber. Whenever he saw a chair, he would smash it. He had almost become a chair destroyer.
During this process, there were other players roaming in the corridor. They kept their distance from Chen Bei and used the built-in camera function of the system to take pictures of Chen Bei.
Well.
Now he was famous!
Chen Bei's pictures were sent to the public group chat.
His face was labeled as that of a murderer.
Moreover, others knew the location of his dormitory.
This made Chen Bei a bit angry.
"Sneaking around. So you were secretly taking pictures of me."
The fact that Chen Bei had become a "villain" had both advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage was that it made others wary and they didn't dare to provoke him easily.
The disadvantage was that others knew where his base was and it was easy for his dormitory to be raided when he was away.
This meant that Chen Bei couldn't go too far away from his own dormitory.
"Never mind. Just develop according to my own pace."
Chen Bei continued to collect timber.
In the management group, someone mentioned him again and also revealed a crucial piece of information.
[It's too troublesome for Zero Degree to collect timber like this. If he could get the fire axe that's on every floor, he could smash the chairs to pieces in just a few strokes.]
[Yeah, at this stage, the fire axe is the best tool and also the best weapon. It's very effective against zombies. It's not too much to say that it's a newbie's artifact.]
[At least it's better than the spear he made himself.]
Chen Bei peeked at the screen again and caught the crucial information.
Fire axe!
Chen Bei frowned slightly. These guys only said that the fire axe was useful but didn't mention its specific location.
"Fire axe... Fire axe..."
Chen Bei's eyes lit up.
How stupid of me! Where else could the fire axe be! Of course it was inside the fire box!
That's why the administrator said there was one on every floor.
Chen Bei switched to his acting mode again, pretending to be searching in the corridor, and passed by the fire box on this floor.
He pretended to walk past it and then turned back halfway, as if he had just had a sudden inspiration.
Only then did he open the sliding door.
Inside, there was a bright red fire axe!
A newbie's artifact, huh?
It's mine now!
Chen Bei took out the fire axe and a data interface popped up.
