Physique Enhancement I and Trapped

Because there were other ordinary zombies around the large zombie, it was inevitable for them to discover Zhou Chen.

Against these ordinary zombies, Zhou Chen used his hatchet to hack them into pieces. He relied on the footwork given by the Combat Arts and his high agility to dodge their attacks.

After he killed four ordinary zombies with the hatchet, the large zombie who was in the distance noticed him.

It immediately charged over with heavy footsteps.

Looking at its body that was at least 200 kgs, Zhou Chen knew that he could not fight it head-on. He immediately used the poisonous spear to stab it, adding the weakening effect of the corpse poison. Then, he constantly circled around and stabbed its head.

After spending some effort, Zhou Chen destroyed this big guy before he was surrounded by the other zombies and absorbed the passive skill, Physique Enhancement I.

This passive skill increased his physique by 0.3, making him feel much sturdier. His strength had also increased greatly.

After completing his goal, he charged out of the encirclement formed by the zombies and fled to a hidden corner to rest.

"I didn't expect to gather all three types of enhancements this early. This dungeon doesn't seem to be difficult."

After obtaining the Physique Enhancement, Zhou Chen's confidence was a little inflated.

"Let's continue looking for special monsters and see if the same passive skills can be stacked."

After making progress, Zhou Chen still wanted to continue to improve. If the same passive skills could overlap, he would have to work harder to increase his attributes as much as possible.

However, it was just a good dream, he did not encounter any special zombies for the next half a day. Instead, he found many ordinary zombies, and he had to spend energy to destroy some of them.

After this period of time, he felt quite hungry and his stamina had decreased. He slowed down the pace of his movements and began to focus on finding food.

It was already evening. Zhou Chen only found a small piece of dry bread and prepared to return to his hiding place with exhaustion and hunger.

On the way, he encountered three Survivors who were surrounded by zombies and fighting with wooden sticks and other weapons.

In fact, each of these people could deal with one or two zombies, but there were too many zombies. The zombies had formed an encirclement, and they were falling into a precarious situation. They could only lean back on each other and use their weapons to attack the zombies that surrounded them, exhausting their strength in the continuous battle.

"Help! Help!"

One of the Survivors saw Zhou Chen's figure not far away and called for help loudly.

Then, he realized that Zhou Chen had quickly turned and left.

The reason why Zhou Chen chose this was not because he was cold-blooded, but because there were too many zombies surrounding the three of them. If he charged over, he might not necessarily be able to save them. Instead, he might be injured or even lose his life.

If he were stronger and in a better state, he actually did not mind saving them.

After leaving the location of the three unlucky ones, Zhou Chen spent some time returning to his hiding place. After a short examination, he used the furniture to block the door and window and lay on the bed.

This time, he fell asleep quickly until he was awakened by a loud sound.

Bang… Bang… Bang…

"What's going on?"

Zhou Chen sat up from the bed and felt the entire room tremble. He immediately got up and checked.

Because it was night time, the door and window of his room were closed, and blocked by the furniture. Only a small portion of the moonlight outside could shine in, so the lighting was very poor.

Zhou Chen searched the dark room for a while and found the source of the sound: Someone was hitting his door very roughly!

"Such a huge commotion is definitely caused by zombies. But how did the zombies find me here?"

Zhou Chen felt a little puzzled. Previously, as long as he dealt with the zombies outside the door, he would not be discovered by the other zombies.

While thinking, he moved the furniture that blocked the window to the door to strengthen it.

After this arrangement, he heard the loud knocking sound continue, but the shaking became smaller.

"I don't know how long it can last, this cannot continue…"

A huge pressure descended on his mind, making him feel the malice of this world.

Just as he was considering whether to break through the window and escape, an even worse situation occurred. A very fat figure appeared outside the window, and its rotting and disgusting head was revealed by the moonlight.

Not only did this huge zombie look disgusting, but it also seemed to have a certain level of intelligence. Its bulb-like swollen eyes were staring straight at Zhou Chen, and the corners of its rotting mouth pulled into a mocking smile.

"Special zombie!"

Zhou Chen was shocked by the huge zombie that suddenly appeared outside the window, but at the same time, he was a little excited. He had searched for a long time during the day and finally saw a special zombie now.

"Take this!"

Since he had already been exposed, Zhou Chen chose to take the initiative to attack. He took out the poisonous spear that he had prepared, shattered the window glass, and stabbed into the huge zombie's eyes, stopping the smile on its face.

He had used a lot of strength this time, but because the zombie was huge and had furniture and the window between it, he could not cause fatal damage to it. He only made it suffer and flee.

"This zombie knows to flee…"

Zhou Chen was a little surprised. The zombies he had seen in the past two days were all simple-minded creatures who would fight to the death. This was the first time he had encountered one who could escape.

After this huge zombie left the window, the outside of the window was quickly filled with ordinary zombies. These zombies passed the steel bars on the window and reached out their claws to tear it apart, but their arms and heads were chopped off by the hatchet.

Zhou Chen used the ax to slash for a while before giving up, because he realized that it was useless. There were too many zombies outside the window, and killing them would only leave more and more corpses, making the air flow in the room a problem.

"I'm actually trapped in this room, but this might be easier to survive than outside."

After accepting the fact that he was surrounded by a large number of zombies, Zhou Chen arranged the furniture and returned to the bed.

He could not escape and it was impossible for him to sleep as well. He could only lie down and conserve his strength while the zombies continued hitting the door and roaring.

Time passed quickly. Zhou Chen did not dare to close his eyes until dawn. When the sun rose, the zombies surrounding his room did not leave. They still knocked on the door and window of his room, making the whole room shake.
