"Damn, are humans going to go extinct?"
At night, leaning against the trunk of a large tree, Ye Feng couldn't help but murmur as he looked at the still dark expanse in his vision.
He had been in this unknown jungle for over half a month.
These days, not only did he observe with binoculars during the day, but at night, while resting on a tall tree, he also looked around for any signs of fire.
But from beginning to end, Ye Feng not only didn't see any people, but he didn't even see fire, which humans would most likely use.
"Hoo!"
Ye Feng looked at the familiar yet strange darkness around him, and for the first time, he had a deep understanding of "night" in the "Long Night" world.
...
The next day,
As soon as the sun rose, Ye Feng woke up. After eating two coarse grain bread and two braised eggs, Ye Feng set off as usual.
Unlike the first few days after arriving in the Long Night world, Ye Feng was now somewhat well-supplied. His 0.5 cubic meter storage space was already packed with various kinds of food, as was his backpack.
"Is it possible that I'm the only human left in this world?"
At noon, Ye Feng drank mineral water and gnawed on beef jerky, looking around the deserted surroundings with some frustration.
These days, he had been heading in the direction where there were more buildings.
As he moved forward, although it was not as desolate and more and more buildings appeared, there were still no humans, and he couldn't see any smoke from human cooking fires even with his binoculars.
However, Ye Feng did kill quite a few hyenas. He didn't know why, but there seemed to be an unusually large number of hyenas in this jungle, which also earned Ye Feng 3 usable points.
Ye Feng's usable points had now increased to 9!
[Name: Ye Feng]
[Strength: 12 (Normal human is 8)]
[Agility: 14 (Normal human is 8)]
[Intelligence: ?]
[Usable Points: 9]
After putting away the [Personal Information] panel, Ye Feng tossed away the empty mineral water bottle and continued on his journey.
"Huh?"
After walking for a little over an hour, Ye Feng suddenly stopped. There was a clear look of surprise on his face because he had found a bear trap.
Immediately, Ye Feng began to look around.
The presence of a bear trap indicated that there were likely humans nearby, as animals wouldn't set such traps.
Ye Feng detoured around the bear trap and continued to walk in the direction where there were more buildings. After a while, he stopped again. He saw a pile of dilapidated cars stacked together, which seemed to have been deliberately created as a barrier.
"To block something?"
Ye Feng frowned slightly.
"Whoa, someone!"
Suddenly, Ye Feng saw the figure he had been hoping for for a long time amidst the pile of wrecked cars.
"Hello!"
Ye Feng was overjoyed and immediately walked forward quickly, greeting the person.
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, the figure who had been making strange movements among the pile of wrecked cars suddenly turned around and faced Ye Feng.
If there was one woman in this "Long Night" world who had her eyes solely on him, it would be this fat woman in tattered clothes and a dirty face.
Uh, although she only had one eye, and that eye seemed to have a serious illness!
But one thing was certain: ever since she heard Ye Feng's voice, the fat woman's eyes widened, staring intently at Ye Feng...
"Hello?"
Seeing that the other party was just staring at him intently, Ye Feng was a little confused. He greeted her again and walked a few steps closer.
The fat woman still didn't answer Ye Feng. Instead, she twitched her nose, sniffed, and suddenly let out a sharp "Ah!" and then bared her teeth and rushed towards Ye Feng.
"Holy crap, what the hell?"
Looking at the fat woman's gaping maw and her ravenous expression, Ye Feng was startled.
A few seconds passed in the blink of an eye. The charging fat woman was now less than 3 meters away from Ye Feng, and at this moment, Ye Feng smelled a strong stench of decay.
"Wait, could this guy be... a zombie?"
Looking at the disgusting blackish-green fluid flowing from the fat woman's mouth, coupled with the nauseating smell of decay, Ye Feng suddenly remembered one of the greatest threats to humans in the "Long Night" world.
Zombies!
"System, start adding points, 4 points to Strength!"
Ye Feng did not hesitate to add nearly half of his usable points to Strength.
Because zombies were difficult to deal with, their strength and speed were much greater than ordinary humans, and only headshots could completely kill them. Attacking other parts could only delay or affect their movements.
While Ye Feng was thinking, the one-eyed fat zombie had already reached Ye Feng, opened its mouth wide, and lunged towards Ye Feng's neck.
Ye Feng's eyes narrowed, and he quickly retreated, narrowly dodging the attack.
Immediately, Ye Feng clenched his baseball bat with his right hand and swung it upwards from below, striking the opponent's head with great force.
"Clang!"
Ye Feng's baseball bat hit the fat zombie's head squarely, caving it in. However, it was clearly not enough to kill her.
The fat zombie stumbled back from Ye Feng's blow and fell to the side, but she immediately got up and charged at Ye Feng again.
This time, Ye Feng directly gripped the baseball bat with both hands, took a swift step to the side of the fat zombie, and struck the same spot again.
"Clang! Bang!"
"Crack!"
A duller impact sound and a cracking sound followed in succession. Then, the fat zombie was violently thrown aside, falling to the ground and ceasing to move.
"Dealing with zombies, I still need to find a gun or a knife..."
Ye Feng looked around, found no other zombies, and wiped his metal baseball bat on the ground.
"Whew, I was still a bit careless..."
Ye Feng let out a sigh of relief. Not seeing humans for a long time had made him unconsciously relax his guard. The appearance of this zombie once again reminded Ye Feng of the dangers of the "Long Night" world.
If he had reacted any slower, he would have been bitten by this fat zombie, and even if he didn't become a meal for the zombies, he would have become a walking dead.
"It seems I need to be more careful from now on..."
"Ding!"
"Host killed 1 ordinary zombie, obtained 1 usable point."
At this moment, the system's voice rang out.
"What the heck, killing one zombie gives one usable point?!"
Ye Feng was very surprised. He had killed over a hundred hyenas that tried to ambush him and only got 3 usable points. Now, killing one zombie gave him one point!
"What are you doing? Why did you kill the zombie?"
At this moment, a melodious voice like a lark's, but carrying obvious dissatisfaction, reached Ye Feng's ears.
