The zombie in front of him, apart from providing Song Jian with one hundred and ten experience points, did not drop any other items. However, at this point, Song Jian didn’t care about the drops from this regular mutant zombie.

Song Jian’s gaze was firmly locked onto the baseball bat and the item emitting a green light.

“Newbie Baseball Bat (Blue), two-handed weapon, Attack: 13-21, Strength +2, Armor Break +1, Special Effect: When attacking the target’s weak area, there’s a certain chance of a lethal hit! Equipment Requirement: Strength above 5 points, Agility 4 points or more; Can it be taken out of the game: No.”

Song Jian discovered to his shock that the equipment requirements for this baseball bat were higher than that of his gun. His strength attribute could meet the requirement because of the Ring of Strength, but he was lacking in agility.

Unable to meet the equipment requirements would mean he wouldn’t be able to put it into the equipment slot, and the equipment’s effect would not be fully utilized. Even if he tried to use this baseball bat as a weapon with difficulty, its power would be greatly reduced, and he could easily hurt himself.

“My newbie equipment is of white quality, but this guy is so lucky to get a blue quality equipment. However, unfortunately, I ended up being the one to benefit…” Song Jian thought to himself.

From the looks of this baseball bat, Song Jian’s body attributes were much worse than the man’s from earlier; since he couldn’t use it, he could only keep it in his bag.

By now, Song Jian’s bag was gradually filling up with mostly everyday items. Fortunately, duplicate items could be stored stacked, otherwise, Song Jian really wouldn’t know what to do with all these supplies.

Subsequently, Song Jian picked up the item emitting a green light, which surprisingly turned out to be a fist-sized green fruit.

“Attribute Fruit (Green); effect: eating it will give one free attribute point. Usage requirement: none. Can it be taken out of the game: Yes.”

“This is actually a fruit that increases attribute points, and moreover, it can be taken out of the game! This is the first time I’ve encountered an item that can be taken out!” Looking at the green fruit in his hand, Song Jian was slightly excited.

The green fruit was slightly sweet and melted in his mouth, turning into a warm flow that entered his stomach and then spread throughout his body, it was extremely comfortable, just like taking a hot bath.

Looking at the attribute interface, there truly was an added line that read “Free Attribute Points: 1,” which could be added to any attribute of his choosing.

Song Jian’s eyes fell first on “Charm: 7 points,” which were his highest attributes and also the attributes he cared the most about. However, no matter how high his charm attributes were now, they wouldn’t help him reasonably survive in the game.

After considering for a while, Song Jian eventually gritted his teeth and added this free attribute point to Agility. Thus, his Agility reached 4 points, which meant he could use the baseball bat.

After increasing his agility by one point, Song Jian easily placed the baseball bat in his equipment slot. As the baseball bat was a two-handed weapon, Song Jian had to place his gun at his waist for now.contemporary romance

Now, Song Jian had three weapons: the baseball bat in his hand, the Tiger Fang Dagger hanging from his left waist, and the pistol on his right.

It was only when equipment was placed in the equipment slot that they could be fully utilised. Otherwise, even if held in hand, the equipment’s attributes would not be added to Song Jian’s stats.

Currently, Song Jian could only equip one main weapon and two auxiliary weapons. The main weapon could either be one-handed or two-handed, but the auxiliary weapons must be one-handed.

“I’ll find a mutant zombie first and test the power of this baseball bat!” Song Jian swung the baseball bat a couple of times and thought to himself.

Song Jian was no longer afraid of mutant zombies like before. As long as he wasn’t surrounded by a large group of them, there was absolutely no danger. The only thing that disgusted him was the strong stench emitted by the mutant zombies.

The baseball bat was longer than an adult’s arm. Song Jian was certain he could hit a zombie’s head before it could reach him.

Just then, from Zhou Xiaofu’s gold shop not too far away, a noise sounded. Looking over, there were three mutant zombies ramming aimlessly within the shop. Some glass counters were being smashed casually by them, making clanging sounds.

The mutant zombies that were chasing him earlier all hid in nearby alleys or rooms due to broad daylight. There were only three zombies in Zhou Xiaofu’s shop. The number was just right; for Song Jian, it was a good opportunity to test the power of his baseball bat.

He stepped towards Zhou Xiaofu’s jewelry shop, as soon as he entered, the closest mutant zombie detected his presence. It wobbled as it turned and walked towards Song Jian. The remaining two were further away, outside of alert range, still aimlessly wandering about.

“The zombie’s alert range is just three meters.” Song Jian observed and internally noted.

Swinging the baseball bat with a “poom” sound, the mutant zombie’s head exploded like a watermelon, instantly emitting a more pungent stench.

“This damn thing is like hitting shit!” Song Jian’s face turned even ghastlier.

Though the smell was nauseating, the baseball bat did pack a punch that thrilled Song Jian with the exhilarating sensation of killing with a single blow.

The other two mutant zombies caught wind of the noise and began to slowly move towards the commotion. They hadn’t sensed Song Jian, they were just attracted by the noise. However, once Song Jian entered their alert range, like voracious maggots, they would relentlessly chase their target until their death.

While the two zombies leisurely approached, Song Jian directly charged at them, swinging his baseball bat. The zombies hadn’t reacted before they were all knocked down, turning into black ash.

System: You have used the “baseball bat” to inflict more than three effective damages on the mutant zombie, learned a skill: [Cold Weapon (Club) (Basic)].

[Cold Weapon (Club) (Basic)]: Passive, Level 1, increases weapon power of clubs by 5%.

Seeing the system prompt, Song Jian had a thought. It seemed that he could certainly master a related passive skill as long as he effectively attacked a creature three times with a weapon.

With this thought in mind, Song Jian looked at the Tiger Fang Dagger hanging on his waist. Since there were no more creatures in the vicinity for now, he decided to find one later to test whether he could master a dagger-related skill.

After killing three mutant zombies and carefully checking, there were no dropped items. Song Jian frowned. He looked at the overturned display counter next to him, gold rings, and gold necklaces randomly scattered on the floor like rubbish, it was rather poignant for Song Jian.

Normally, these would be worth a good amount of money. But in a zombie city, all the gold jewelry, presumably, wouldn’t be worth as much as a pie of bread or a bottle of mineral water.

Nevertheless, the jewelry pieces were indeed magnificent. The designs were very likable. What was more astounding was that after so long, the jewelry’s surfaces were still shining brightly, showing no signs of decay or antiquity.

“If I could carry these out of the game, I would be rich!” Song Jian regretfully picked up a gold necklace. Surprisingly, it discovered it wasn’t merely a gray item. However, it had a property that took Song Jian by surprise.

“Gold Necklace (Miscellaneous), fineness: 24K, weight: 11.6 grams, effect: Charm +1, Equipment requirement: Female, Can it be carried out of the game: Yes

“This gold necklace can actually be taken out of the game?” Song Jian was thrilled. He carefully searched and found that all the jewelry in here was miscellaneous, and several items could be carried out of the game.

“I’m rich!” Song Jian smirked.

After selecting for quite a while, Song Jian picked several heavy gold bracelets and stuffed them into his package slot until it was full. Even the last gold-rimmed slot was filled with a pair of heavy gold bracelets.

“Phew, this trip, if I can safely exit the game, will at least make me upwards of tens of thousands.” Song Jian thought contently. The only regret was that these pieces of jewelry, not of the same type, couldn’t be stacked. One slot could hold only one item; this made Song Jian a little regretful.
