Free attribute points were definitely good things.
Adding points freely ant flexibility, and it also ant targeting to make up for weaknesses.
And the Resistance Stance, which could bring free attribute points, was an even better thing.
Not only did it give free attribute points, but it also gave a lot of them!
While other skills only gave 0.1 or 0.2 points, the Resistance Stance directly gave 1 or 2 points!
This really made Lu Ming excited…
He practiced the Resistance Stance again and again until a strong sense of hunger overwheld him, and only then did Lu Ming stop.
It was already 9 o’clock in the evening. Zhao Yongchun, Zhao Honglei, and the others had not eaten yet, as they accompanied Lu Ming through the tough training.
When they saw Lu Ming stop and prepare to go ho, they were amazed by his talent and let out a sigh of relief.
They were even hungrier as they had not eaten since morning.
However, since Lu Ming did not say to stop, they did not dare to stop either…
After thanking the Zhao father and son several tis, Lu Ming went ho to prepare dinner.
It was not until after 11 o’clock that Lu Ming finished cooking and had his al.
Feeling tired and sleepy, Lu Ming still forced himself to take stock of the household supplies.
However, his mood turned unpleasant when he saw the walls with leaks all around.
Lying in bed, Lu Ming muttered to himself as he drifted off to sleep.
“I have to fix it, it must be fixed!”
Soon, he fell asleep.
Day 46 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Wednesday.
He got up, washed up, made breakfast, and exercised.
After completing this routine, Lu Ming obtained attribute points, and the morning ti passed by just like that.
After the lunch break, Lu Ming imdiately went to look for Li Zitong.
“Help fix my house if you have ti.”
Part of the walls of Lu Ming’s house had suffered fatal damage during the last zombie wave. When Lu Ming slept at night, he could feel the drafts in the house. He felt uncomfortable and insecure living there.
Upon hearing this, Li Zitong nodded imdiately. “I have ti right now.”
When Brother Lu needed help, the task had to be done properly and quickly. Brother Lu’s matters were of utmost importance in the Guangping Street gathering place!
Lu Ming said, “Then let’s start now!”
The skill training session in the afternoon had been replaced by a house repair session by Lu Ming.
Standing in front of his house, most of the people from the gathering place had co to watch the commotion.
Lu Ming did not pay much attention to that. He just looked at his house that was on the verge of collapse and could not express his frustration…
“So, Brother Lu, how do we fix it?” Li Zitong asked.
Lu Ming thought for a mont and replied, “Just patch up the cracked areas.”
As soon as Lu Ming finished speaking, Zhang Lixin who was standing beside them imdiately chid in, “Don’t do it like that, Brother Lu. I have a better idea.”
Lu Ming turned to look at Zhang Lixin and listened as he continued, “Brother Lu, think about it. You finally started construction on this house. Shouldn’t we make the most of it? Expand its scale or whatever. And if you have any ideas or requirents for the house, feel free to ntion them. We can work on it together.”
Lu Ming thought that Zhang Lixin’s suggestion made sense.
But there was another important issue.
“Can you guys handle the plumbing and electrical work too?”
Zhang Lixin’s smile froze on his face in an instant.
Since the beginning of the apocalypse until now, the water and electricity supply had not been cut off. To the survivors, this was undoubtedly great news.
But now that Lu Ming wanted to repair his house, and if he made the major changes suggested by Zhang Lixin, the issue of water and electricity supply would definitely be unavoidable.
And Zhang Lixin really could not handle it.
After asking around in the crowd, Zhang Lixin shook his head in disappointnt and said, “It’s not possible. We don’t have people with expertise in that area in our gathering place.”
The gathering place had a small population, and talent was even scarcer.
So a major renovation was not feasible.
“But I think it’s really necessary to set up an outdoor kitchen,”
said Zhang Chengcheng, who was beside Lu Ming.
Lu Ming looked at Zhang Chengcheng and heard her say with a smile, “Brother Lu, cooking by yourself must be ti-consuming, right?”
Lu Ming nodded.
Indeed, it was.
As Lu Ming’s appetite grew and each al took longer to prepare, cooking and eating had beco a burden for him.
However, he could not let others eat in his place.
Lu Ming would not let anyone walk into his house and cook for him.
He did not want to eat communal als either…
While contemplating these issues, Zhang Chengcheng said, “So, Brother Lu, let’s set up an outdoor kitchen. Instead of using the natural gas pipeline for fuel, we can use gas cylinders and find soone to help you with the cooking. This way, it should save you a lot of ti.”
Lu Ming could not help but feel conflicted.
It was indeed important to save ti, but having soone else to cook for him… he could not trust just anyone…
What if soone poisoned the food?
Seeing Lu Ming’s dilemma, Zhang Chengcheng smiled and said, “Well, I don’t have much to do every day, so why not let cook for you from now on? I’m quite skilled at cooking.”
Letting Zhang Chengcheng cook for him…
In terms of trust, Lu Ming was at ease—without Zhang Chengcheng, Lu Ming’s attributes would not have improved. So Lu Ming was not too worried about Zhang Chengcheng poisoning the food.
It was just that…
“How can I accept that?” Lu Ming said.
“You help with my training and now you want to cook for , it’s a bit too much of a favor,” he added.
Zhang Chengcheng chuckled softly and said, “Brother Lu, why are you still being so formal with ? How about this, why don’t you take care of my als from now on? How does that sound?”
Lu Ming imdiately nodded. “Deal!”
With that, the matter was settled.
However, Lu Ming did not notice the silent exchange of glances among the people behind him.
Zhang Chengcheng was trapping Lu Ming…
But it was fine. At least in the eyes of others, they felt that Zhang Chengcheng and Lu Ming were a good match.
With the plan in place, they imdiately started working.
Earth-elent superpowers were undoubtedly helpful for house repairs.
Li Zitong used his Earth-elent superpower to help repair and reinforce the walls of Lu Ming’s house. He also built a square outdoor kitchen and a dining room near Lu Ming’s house.
From today onwards, this would be Lu Ming and Zhang Chengcheng’s dedicated dining area.
Although there was indeed suspicion of special treatnt, Lu Ming did not care about that.
He used his own resources for cooking and eating, so there was nothing to be ashad of in having a separate kitchen.
In just two hours, the minor repairs were completed.
After thanking Li Zitong multiple tis, the others dispersed and busied themselves with their own tasks, leaving only Lu Ming, Zhang Chengcheng, and Zhao Yongchun in front of Lu Ming’s house.
“Are you going to continue training in the afternoon?”
After Zhao Yongchun asked Lu Ming, he imdiately nodded. “It’s only three o’clock. It’s still early. I can train for another two hours.”
Zhao Yongchun could not help but admire him.
Lu Ming was already so strong, yet he still diligently trained every day.
No wonder he was so aweso… Hard work combined with talent, there was no reason not to be extraordinary!
Seeing the earnest and hardworking Lu Ming, Zhang Chengcheng’s eyes also sparkled with admiration.
She chuckled and said, “Then I’ll go and cook now.”
Lu Ming nodded and said seriously, “Thank you, Chengcheng.”
The afternoon training focused on spearmanship.
With a qualified master like Zhao Yongchun, Lu Ming’s basic spearmanship improved rapidly.
By dinner ti, Lu Ming had raised his basic spearmanship to Level 3 (35/300), and his three-dinsional attributes increased by 0.3 points again.
As a result, Lu Ming’s attributes beca:
Na: Lu Ming

Resistance Stance Lvl (32/100).
After enjoying the dinner made by Zhang Chengcheng, Lu Ming took a short break and imdiately began practicing the resistance stance technique.
Every exercise, every drop of sweat, would bring results.
Therefore, Lu Ming had no reason to be anything but diligent..
