Chapter 109 - 98 Leveling Up

Chapter 109: Chapter 98 Leveling UpNight shift Lin Wu always found ways to disturb everyone’s rest, whether intentionally or not. The first ones to be disturbed were Stone, Su Shi, and Shana, who had to discuss sewing skills. Then Little Knife was disturbed, as the gossipy Lin Wu claimed he had encountered a Nightmare, which immediately perked Little Knife up.

Seeing that most people were not resting, Maya woke up the Soulless brothers and held a small meeting to change the day and night shift schedules. The reason was due to the day shift’s

Little Knife stepped in to "eliminate the pest" on behalf of Shana, Lin Wu dodged, and with a chuckle, grabbed a stool to sit next to Maya.

Stone glanced around and said, "As for Shana becoming the Deputy Commander of the day shift, those in favor, please raise your hand."

Little Knife immediately raised her hand; she preferred to be on the same shift as Shana compared to Maya’s strict work ethic. The Soulless brothers glanced at each other and raised their hands as well.

Maya declared, "Good, then the shifts are set."

Just as Stone was about to adjourn the meeting, the system broadcast announced to the entire server: Nightmare had completed the last intelligence officer’s task, activating the Market Trading System for the whole server. For more details, see the game manual.

The county-level Market System was organized by county, and the market days for South City’s Left County were the 15th and 30th of each month, from 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. During this time, there would be no siege events in Left County, and players based at the fortress could enter the market through the in-base instance.

Lin Wu murmured to himself, "This person is a bit strange."

Stone agreed, "Neither Left nor Right County has heard of anyone taking on such important tasks, yet she alone has completed at least two important tasks." One was activating the Marriage System, the other was the Market System.

Lin Wu asked, "A player NPC?"

Everyone was a regular person, with their daily routines, but among the masses, there would always be some anomalies. For example, joining a secret organization or becoming special agents altered their day-to-day living substantially from ordinary people.

Maya deeply agreed, "Right, her backpack has the Fortress mark, and so does her face mask and clothing. The task she undertook tonight is also related to the Fortress. Nightmare must be a special agent recruited by the system for the Fortress, so her playstyle is different from regular players. That’s why she neither teams up nor joins any fortress."

Lin Wu added, "Her gear is not bad, the spray gun and katana are obviously top-quality stuff." Killing NPCs is part of the game content, so Lin Wu wouldn’t discuss morality or reputation with NPCs. But if the other party was a player, it was a different story. Lin Wu wouldn’t kill someone just because he coveted their gear. The relationship between people and numbers can be purely about interests. But between people, there’s morality, justice, and conscience before interests.

Shana, who had been mixing with Lin Wu for half a month on night shift, read the subtext in his words, "They might not necessarily be an enemy."

Stone agreed, "Since there has been cooperation between us, don’t treat the other as an enemy just because they have good equipment."

"Got it."

...

Shana was officially promoted to Deputy Commander of the Shadow base. At 6:30 in the morning, the day shift, led by Shana with Snow Egg as the driver, drove south, passing through the Sentry Card and heading to the Wilderness Farm. Before setting out, Lin Wu casually mentioned having seen a Black Bear in that area, cautioning them to be extra careful.

With Maya feeling bored during the daytime, she called Lin Wu, and they rode a motorcycle to the tunnel. The tunnel was a holy land for leveling up, plenty of zombies, but not too densely packed. Moreover, the cramped interior of the train was perfect for Maya’s skills.
