Chapter 772: Chapter 349 One Day_3

Unlimited ammo at a non-Hardcore Mode base sounds nice, doesn’t it? It doesn’t, because it sounds very LOW. What’s the difference between non-Hardcore Mode and a mindless shooting game if you don’t lose points and can charge into battle every day?

Although eating and sleeping are troublesome, they’re quite realistic. If people don’t have basic desires, how are they different from zombies?

This time, everyone agreed with Lin Wu’s idea and thought non-Hardcore Mode was pointless.

Lacking in sentimentality, Maya finished tallying supplies, called a meeting to distribute them, and reset instance number 334.

Upon entering the reset instance, the rooftop was still the rooftop, the structure was the same, but what had changed was that each office’s zombies and decorations were different. In addition, even the brands and locations of electrical appliances had changed. The 54th-floor instance remained unchanged, but the loot was different, providing only a pistol and an extra 10 bullets.

Lin Wu complained immediately.

Little White Rabbit replied, "Before the event started, NPCs explained there are rewards for first kills on bosses. That means, the Auto Turret we got before was a first kill reward. Cash and jewels are randomly generated with each instance reset and do not depend on whether it is your first time entering. The drop rate for ordinary and elite zombies remains the same,"

In short, pistols and basic materials can be obtained from ordinary zombies in hard instances. It is the Leopard Machine that drops good weapons, not the bosses. After a discussion, everyone decided not to switch instances and continued grinding instance 334. They would consider switching to a Hell Mode instance tomorrow.

Priority was given to building materials and food, as the other three basic packs were not very useful.

And so, from 2 p.m. to 10 p.m., Shadow Squad ran four more rounds of instance 334, each ending on the 52nd floor. There was enough food for everyone to last seven days, and building materials were sufficient for basic constructions.

...

Two turrets were installed on the first floor of the base, in the clinic and the burger shop, all using 5.56 bullets. One of them was an upgraded, double-barrel, high-speed Auto Turret; although not as powerful as automatic rifles, it had the advantage of not using up ammunition or manpower.

Additionally, the base now had dorms, an infirmary, and a production room; everything looked professional.

The base had no electricity, and to power up during the event, one needed a Power card, which only dropped from first killing bosses on Hardcore difficulty. Nevertheless, the system compassionately provided free candles.

By candlelight, Maya took inventory and summoned everyone to discuss venturing into Hell Mode instances the next day, "I believe that today, many players have cleared Hard Mode instances, and tomorrow even more players will participate in Hard Mode and Hell Mode instances. We must stay one step ahead. The day after tomorrow, Fortress agents will start hunting, and the survival pressure on players will be greater. Considering all factors, we should take the risk and go into a Hell Mode instance tomorrow."

Maya pulled out a sheet of paper, "Here’s the count of our ammunition. 240 pistol bullets, a bit scarce, mainly because we used a lot on floors 51 and 53. One 5.56 rifle with 350 bullets."

"Wow!"

Lin Wu proudly picked up the G36 from the gun rack.

Maya reached out, and Lin Wu, with a black line on his face, handed over the G36, and Maya gave Lin Wu the Forest Wolf in exchange, ".50 caliber bullets, 32 in stock. 7.62 caliber, 290 bullets. Our biggest problem right now is the lack of automatic rifles."

Maya continued, "The base’s total assets are $32 million, enough for 6,400 rounds at the Leopard Machine. In ten minutes, the Leopard Machine Room will be built. After that, it will be all up to Stone."

Stone raised a hand to show he understood.

Maya said, "Work starts at six in the morning, everyone rest early and be sure to get at least five hours of sleep. Meeting adjourned."

While everyone else was deep in sleep, Stone officially began his work.

At first, playing the Leopard Machine was quite fun, but tirelessly repeating the same action through the night was no different from screwing caps on an assembly line. By dawn, an exhausted Stone handed in four pistols and one 7.62 AK rifle, with $20 million in chips still inside the machine. What was more daunting was that Shadow Squad could bring back even more money at any time.

It was endless; simply endless.

But Stone did not dare speak up, after all, he had no value here even as a farmer. While handing over the weapons and ammunition, he was also afraid the bosses might be unhappy, thinking he was slacking off the night before.

Maya took the rifles and pistols, allocating the AK rifle to Snow Egg, the G36 to Shana, Lin Wu took the Forest Wolf, and she herself took the M4. Little Knife’s weapons were a bow, fists, and a pistol.

Without any unnecessary talk and after gearing up, Maya chose portal number 771 and entered the Hell Mode instance.
