After calculating his remaining resource reserves and looking at Scheme 2.

Confirming that iron resources were not needed, Zhao Feng decisively chose Scheme 2, the wireless power network.

Wireless is good, no need to worry about someone destroying the power cables.Full novel: Star Sea Survival: Growing Stronger From a Humble Ship — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

With wireless, who would still use wired?

Watching the geothermal power station, which was fully activated after the selection was complete, Zhao Feng's heart surged with excitement.

'This move is truly stable!'

【Ding! Your geothermal power station has been constructed. Do you wish to link related equipment? Current energy output: 360 units/day. Ps: This is the first and only prompt.】

“Connect! Absolutely connect!”

As he spoke, Zhao Feng added two S-type drilling lasers to the power network.

At the same time, he also connected Ruolan's S-type shield generator.

The moment they were connected to the power grid, the energy values of the weapons and shields instantly surged to 100%, like a stopwatch starting its timer.

This speed is faster than any 120w fast charging~

With the completion of the geothermal power station, everything seemed to be getting better.

The Slaughter Value also reached the 20,000 mark at this time.

His ranking rose to 3985th globally.

After killing so many zombies and gaining a large amount of Experience, Zhao Feng's Level unknowingly reached Lv.3, and he had 2 Attribute Points remaining.

At the current stable development rate, he is expected to have around 240,000 Slaughter Points in 24 hours, which should be enough to rank in the top 500.

Of course, this is all assuming there are enough zombies outside for him to kill.

Good things kept coming one after another.

The only frustrating thing was that the gap on the Kill List was widening.

A quick comparison of the kill data of the top 5 players.

【First Place: Li Yunfeng, Points 306534】

【Second Place: Klause, Points 231532】

【Third Place: Milsen, Points 212236】

【Fourth Place: Wang Chen, Points 195231】

【Fifth Place: Xiao Li, Points 189613】

Looking at those exaggerated numbers, Zhao Feng felt a tingling sensation on his scalp.

Is this something a human can do?

The top donor has gone berserk!

In just over 3 to 4 hours, he's killed 300,000 monsters!

He's already created a significant gap with the second-place player.

'Did this guy poke a hornet's nest?'

To be honest, seeing how powerful the Earth Players were, Zhao Feng no longer wanted to compete with these beasts.

He even started to wonder who was actually using cheats.

Just as he was preparing to lay low, grind monsters, and forgo rewards.

The Cheat System's attack plugin suddenly backstabbed him.

(Your Mental Power is below 25%, Assisted Aiming is now closed.)

(Your current Mental Power is 2.24/9.00)

At the same time, waves of dizziness and a deep, soul-crushing sleepiness swept over his brain.

'???'

After being stunned for half a second, Zhao Feng decisively opened his Personal Attribute Panel, clicked on the Mental Attribute, and confirmed the attribute point allocation.

The tense combat state had made him forget about this.

Assisted Aiming continuously consumes Mental Power.

0.5 per hour might not seem like much, but don't forget.

What he had gone through in these past few hours.

During these fulfilling 4 hours, besides the Mental Power consumed by the combat plugin, his own consumption was also considerable.

It was fortunate that Zhao Feng had primarily invested in the Mental Attribute; otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to last this long with Assisted Aiming activated.

At this moment, the gate could not be closed, and the zombie horde was still attacking.

Without efficient aiming to clear out the constantly invading mutants, the so-called underground safe house would merely be a grave with more supplies.

【Ding, Mental +1】

(Special effect triggered: 【Deep Space Gaze】, Mental +2, Current Mental: 11)

(Detected that you have accumulated over 5 points in Mental Attribute, an additional 3% chance of encountering special events and a 1% chance of encountering bizarre events are now added.)

As the prompt finished, nothing unusual happened; there were no disasters like earthquakes or volcanic eruptions.

The zombies were still desperately trying to burrow into the tunnel.

Everything seemed normal.

Except for the faint whispers echoing in his ears...

As time passed, the whispers echoing in all players' ears gradually grew louder.

All the sounds eventually unified into a hum resembling a siren, resonating through the entire RTX4090.c via mental resonance.

..

Underground, through the thick soil layer, Zhao Feng was still affected.

As the hum began, the Cheat System and the game system successively displayed their respective prompt messages.

(Received a Psychic Attack, Thick Hide triggered, reducing damage by 50%, Mental Check difficulty coefficient -50%)

【Ding, you have received a mental attack of intensity level 2. Performing an exemption check now...】

【Ding! Congratulations on your Great Success in the Mental Check. Nothing happened, and you even find the background noise somewhat pleasant. Mental Attribute temporarily +1 for 6 hours.】

(Ding! Special effect triggered: 【Deep Space Gaze】, Mental Attribute temporarily +2, Current Mental: 11+2)

(Current Mental Power, 13.00/13.00)

His Mental Power, which had recovered to 80% after allocating points, was now completely full due to the temporary attribute increase.

Visibly, Zhao Feng was unharmed and even seemed more energetic.

However, Li Ruolan beside him collapsed in pain as if she had suffered a severe blow.

Clearly, her attributes were insufficient to pass this mental check.

Seeing Ruolan writhing in pain on the ground, Zhao Feng felt his heart clench.

He quickly opened fire down the passage, rapidly clearing out the approaching zombie horde.

He then rushed to Li Ruolan, picked up the S-type shield generator she had dropped, and activated it.

This was the only defensive measure he could think of.

And the only Energy Type defensive means he possessed.

A light blue energy shield enveloped them both, and the external humming sound immediately diminished several times.

At the same time, Li Ruolan fell unconscious, at least no longer writhing in pain.

He gently patted her back, then turned her over to lie down properly.

After completing these actions, Zhao Feng let out a sigh of relief, returned to his firing position, and annihilated the zombie horde that was once again charging into the passage.

Returning to his post, Zhao Feng opened the communication interface with a thought and checked the Kill List.

After carefully scanning the list, he noticed that the data of about 20 players among the top 100 on the Kill List had stopped increasing.

This even included two Big Shot players ranked fourth and fifth.

These individuals were likely players from the same planet as him.

He silently noted down the information of a few of them, keeping it in mind.

Then, he opened the Regional Channel.

The Regional Channel was in complete chaos at this moment.

Countless cries of agony and hysterical languages filled the channel.

Those who could vent were those with higher Mental Power.

Many more had directly fallen unconscious.

Piken: Can someone save me? My head is about to explode.

Lancelot: Everyone with a shield generator, activate it quickly. Shields can block some of the damage.

Karl: Damn it! What the hell is this sound? Damn it, whether I plug my ears or dive into water, I can still hear it clearly. Do I have to rupture my eardrums!!!

Rong Yue: Be careful upstairs. Rupturing your eardrums probably won't help. This sound is a Psychic Attack. My Mental Power is 9, and I received a system message as soon as the sound started, barely passing the mental check.

Hegel: Mental Check? What's that? Why didn't I receive it? Damn it! The sound is back. If this continues, I'm really going to die...

Lin Yu: Upstairs, if you didn't receive a message, it means you failed the check completely, indicating you can't perceive the Essence of this sound.

Wang Chen: Does anyone have a way to solve the source of this sound? If this continues, everyone on this planet will die. No one can guarantee that this mental attack won't escalate.

Li Ming: Holy crap! The Big Shot at fourth on the Kill List, I worship you, Big Shot! Where are you? Please carry me! Wait a minute... The sound is gone?!
