As part of the preliminary preparations for reinitiating the clearing plan for the outer area of Raccoon City, he packed a bottle of mineral water, a small Magic Recovery Potion, a Red and Green pill, an Ergency Spray, and three keys (a key to apartnt 301’s anti-theft door, a key to the main iron gate of the apartnt, and a key to the rolling door of the gun shop) into the utility packs and equipnt bags strapped to his belt.
Then Zhang Yanhang also loaded a few spare rifle magazines and grenades onto his belt. As for the previously indispensable Enemy Seeking Radar? This ti, due to having acquired the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Skill, it was officially retired along with the ancestral single-shoulder bag.
Of course, the sa fate befell the old clothes Zhang Yanhang had found in Ashen World; having acquired attribute-enhancing equipnt, he no longer needed such items.
To be honest, he had long grown tired of these poor-quality clothes, which would tear easily if bitten by a zombie. He had only kept wearing them because he didn’t want to go shirtless.
After preparing so items he might need later, Zhang Yanhang re-planned the clearing program for the outer zone of Raccoon City. First, he needed to re-clear the already cleaned First Stage and the partially cleared Second Stage, specifically the area from Dulda Apartnt to the slot machine where new zombies had spawned.
Although this area covered six square kiloters, since the zombies were freshly spawned, clearing them should be relatively easy, Zhang Yanhang estimated it would take about an hour.
Next would be the unfinished part of the Second Stage, the areas around the slot machine. Last ti Zhang Yanhang couldn’t finish it due to lack of ti, but this ti, he definitely could clear it smoothly, a re three square kiloters, a task he could complete within three hours, even before becoming stronger.
After that, the plan would proceed as before, starting with cleaning the area from the slot machine to the Big Treasure Box and then back to the apartnt. Together, these two parts covered at least ten square kiloters, possibly even up to more than twenty square kiloters.
Once all four stages were completed, Zhang Yanhang’s clearing plan for the outer area of Raccoon City would be considered complete, and he could then officially start advancing into Raccoon City’s mid and core areas.
Moreover, according to the information previously revealed, Raccoon City required clearing not only above ground but also underground, speculated to involve Raccoon City’s sewers and the Umbrella company’s laboratories set up beneath the Raccoon City Police Departnt, both of which he had visited multiple tis previously while playing gas.
"Although I don’t know when the transmission channel will close, I will definitely clear up to the Third Stage." The Third Stage covered far too much area, and even now that he was stronger, Zhang Yanhang still wasn’t confident he could clear it all in one go.
Also, if his physical strength allowed, he might choose to stay, then leave when the transmission channel reopened four days later. "It’s perfect since the National Day holiday lasts a full eight days. I would return on the evening of the 8th, and school wouldn’t start until the 9th, so I won’t miss any classes."
Of course, even if he did end up missing school, Zhang Yanhang really didn’t mind, because compared to becoming stronger, attending school was truly trivial.
"Now, let’s officially set off." Zhang Yanhang pulled out an M4A1 rifle from his Waist Bag and slung it over his shoulder, then clipped an M9 pistol to his belt.
Even this ti, Zhang Yanhang didn’t forget to lock the door when leaving ho—locking the door is truly important. He stepped outside of Dulda Apartnt, took a deep breath of Raccoon City’s fresh air, and nodded in satisfaction.
Thanks to the isolation provided by the Energy Shield, the strong sll of decay normally present in Raccoon City’s air was completely undetectable. Thus, the air he was breathing was genuinely fresh, even better quality than that in the Main World.
...
Fifteen minutes later, on the rooftop.
Zhang Yanhang stretched out his right hand and directly crushed the head of a zombie that tried to get intimately close just as he opened the door. He waited a few seconds on the spot and, finding no Treasure Box, he typically used his Perception to check if the locations of other nearby monsters had changed.
"Hmm? What is this?" Zhang Yanhang suddenly noticed sothing boxy at the edge of his Perception range that resembled a box. His Perception strangely couldn’t penetrate this box to see its contents.
"My intuition tells this could be a real treasure." Previously, the only thing he encountered with similar characteristics was the slot machine, which he also couldn’t see inside with his Perception. Thus, he keenly presud he might have found sothing valuable.
"But heading straight there feels too troubleso; I’ll just continue clearing step by step as planned, since I have plenty of ti this round." Zhang Yanhang had essentially decided to stay there for four continuous days, so he had ample ti.
Currently, Zhang Yanhang was standing on the rooftop of an eight-story building, but as he gazed into the distance, he still couldn’t make out the exact height of the towering tree in the northern part of Raccoon City. "Despite my Agility attribute already being at 21 points and even after drinking the vision-enhancing Silver Frost Flower, I still can’t manage it; it really is unreasonably tall..."
Now, after enhancing his vision with the Silver Frost Flower, Zhang Yanhang could see patterns on discarded cans on the ground within a one to two kiloter radius, assuming no obstructions. However, in a modern city like Raccoon City, made of reinforced concrete, his vision didn’t really co into much play.
Instead of relying on his vision, Zhang Yanhang was more dependent on the Perception provided by the Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil Skill, mainly using it to scan for nearby monsters — ensuring there were no oversights, which was a truly great feature. Unlike the previous Enemy Seeking Radar, the three-dinsional map created by his Perception was refreshed in real-ti.
This significant advantage had led to a further increase in Zhang Yanhang’s efficiency in hunting monsters, enabling him to plan his routes more effectively and avoid unnecessary detours.
