Chapter 2720 An increasingly difficult crisis
Two weeks later, within the church.
Zhang Meng's eyes were very heavy and the atmosphere was very depressing.
Everyone was silent.
He just got the news.
Li Cang led four other survivors into the foggy area, hoping to awaken their power.
But the end of the world is cruel, and only two people successfully awaken.
The other two fell into the mist forever.
Zhang Meng stood aside, feeling that something was wrong.
There was a trace of confusion in his eyes, and he had lost his previous memory.
If he still remembers it, he should understand that Li Cang did all this deliberately.
Although he didn't remember it, he had a feeling that awakening seemed to be a very common and simple thing.
After all, he could tell from the injuries on his body.
There were no wounds on his body.
Li Cang said calmly: "Three of the five awakened, the probability is pretty good."
"Yes, this is a 60% chance. I will awaken next time." Another small black man said.
Li Cang nodded at him: "Wugang, very good, I will have you next time."
"Thank you, boss." The black man nodded quickly.
Others also started to laugh: "Yes, only two people died, which is very few. I think back then, there were only ten people alive in our community."
"There are more than a thousand people in my school, but only five people are alive."
The crowd quickly dispersed the dullness of the dead, and then another banquet was held that night.
Together, the three demonstrate new powers.
Strength, agility, endurance, and vision are all improved.
Marksmanship also gets better.
His own resistance has also become stronger, and he can resist even bullets hitting his body.
It can be said that once you awaken, you will immediately become a tiger-like existence in the food chain.
……
Just after they held the banquet, another two days passed.
The second wave of apocalyptic attacks has arrived again.
Of course, this was Zhang Meng’s second experience.
A sharp whistling sound suddenly sounded in the early morning, and a group of skeleton shooters fell from the sky.
Their eyes flashed with green light, and they rushed towards the church camp.
As soon as he got close, he shot sharp bone arrows with the bone bow in his hand.
When those bone arrows were inserted into the church, they began to burn with green fire.
The survivors immediately became alert.
They were not in chaos.
First, they scattered to avoid and tried to fight back, but the bone arrows fell like raindrops.
Fortunately, they usually built a lot of defense facilities in the yard, otherwise, one life after another would definitely be taken away.
Li Cang's face was solemn, and he stood up immediately.
They must take action.
"Take out all the steel shields you make on weekdays!" he shouted.
The survivors sprang into action.
They took out steel shields.
On weekdays, they collect all the metals they can find and use lathes to make shields and armors.
On weekdays, they knocked out many shields.
This is just the time to resist bone arrows.
After Zhang Meng woke up, he immediately launched a counterattack.
Now his physical attributes are greatly enhanced, and his eyes are shining with new power.
He picked up a sniper rifle, which was just assigned to him and he had only been familiar with it for two days.
But he is already very skilled. After all, his physical attributes are very strong now, his shooting is very stable, and he can shoot in a straight line.
As long as the shooting is stable, the shooting skills can be improved quickly.
He went to a high place in the church and shot the skeleton shooter with precision.
Every shot he fired accurately hit the skull shooter's head, turning them into a pile of broken bones.
His marksmanship was deadly and swift, making him a key player on the battlefield.
Li Cang quickly directed the others, and under the cover of Zhang Meng, they began to hide behind the shield in an orderly manner, and also used guns to fight back.
The number of skeleton shooters gradually dwindled.
Finally, the last skeleton shooter shattered on the ground.
Among the survivors, only one was accidentally scratched by an arrow.
A doctor quickly used a scalpel to cut off his injured part to prevent it from being burned by the green fire.
Just as the skeleton shooter was repulsed, the ground began to shake.
A skeleton knight rode a bone horse, and it rushed out of the mist again.
Zhang Meng took a deep breath, he was used to it.
After a group of mobs, there comes a BOSS.
The skeleton knight's eyes were flashing with red light, and the bone sword in his hand was waving.
Every swing brought a powerful shock wave, hitting the wall directly, shaking the church's defensive wall to the point of collapse.
You know, this is a three-story structure of bricks, concrete and steel.
What everyone usually does is to strengthen this line of defense.
It is conceivable that if everyone hides outside, it will easily take away the lives of every survivor.
Even the awakened ones, if they are not experienced people, will find it difficult to directly confront them.
This guy has a horse, which is a huge advantage.
Li Cang's expression also became serious.
He had just dealt with the skeleton shooter, but he had not taken action.
And now he knew that it was difficult to defeat this skeleton knight with his strength alone.
He needs help.
Because the opponent has a mobility advantage.
"Zhang Meng, you three awakened ones, come with me!" he shouted loudly.
Four people scattered in four directions and began to besiege the Skeleton Knight.
Zhang Meng's marksmanship was still deadly, and his bullets kept hitting the Skeleton Knight.
But the Skeleton Knight is too mobile, and it nimbly avoids attacks.
The other three were exhausted.
And the most important thing is that if the injuries cannot be superimposed in one place, the opponent will slowly repair them.
After a fierce battle, they finally found the Skeleton Knight's weakness.
In a perfect coordination, Zhang Meng's bullet hit the Skeleton Knight's eye.
The skeleton knight didn't have time to dodge.
And Li Cang's sword took the opportunity to pierce its head.
The Skeleton Knight let out a final roar and fell to the ground.
"It's a victory." A white man sighed.
He was almost killed by the Skeleton Knight with a sword, but Zhang Meng supported him with a gun.
This made him somewhat grateful to Zhang Meng.
At the same time, he also had some unusual thoughts in his mind.
He felt that Li Cang was a little disappointed.
Could it be that the other party wanted him to die?
But if you let yourself die, why let yourself wake up again?
……
After Zhang Meng returned, he recalled the thrilling scene just now.
He's already aware of it.
The white man almost died.
Li Cang's plan is actually this: Awakeners need to have.
But it's best to use up a few after each crisis.
Could it be that the strength of this camp is related to the danger level of the doomsday?
Is this the same rule as the main god space?
Even so, the difficulty will eventually get higher and higher, and there will still be a final battle.
If you weaken your own strength now, you can only live in peace for a while.
Li Cang looks like a protagonist. His vision is not so short-sighted, right?
He stood in the ruins of the church, staring into the distance through the broken windows.
He understands now.
This doomsday game is one challenge after another, and every crisis is a test of survival. He began to think.
Is there any secret hidden in this game world that could be the key to their survival?
Oh, if only that little girl could give herself a break.
He is not greedy either, as long as he can kill monsters and level up.
There is no requirement to be able to create something out of nothing.
Unfortunately not.
……
Then life has to go on.
During a late-night patrol, Zhang Meng and Li Cang discovered some unusual signs.
That was a sign that someone was looking.
They follow the traces left by each other and end up in a hidden community.
There is also a camp in that community.
This camp is a large villa, which is more than 500 meters away from the surrounding buildings.
This camp is different from any camp they have encountered before. Everyone in this camp is an awakened person.
This discovery surprised Zhang Meng.
He didn't know why the other party created so many awakened ones.
But Li Cang obviously only created a few of them.
He didn't know what their purpose was.
The two then observed for a while and discovered an even more terrifying fact: the people on the other side were all men, not a single woman.
The two left quietly with doubts.
However, two days later, the other party's people took the initiative to appear outside the church camp.
There were six of them, all awakened ones.
Everyone's strength is similar to Li Cang.
They made a request - to annex their camp, saying it was necessary for survival.
"We should unite, otherwise, subsequent attacks will become more and more difficult." The person on the other side said.
Li Cang looked at everyone.
No one wants to be merged with them.
Zhang Meng felt something was wrong.
He asked a question: "Why are there all men there?"
The person on the other side was silent for a while.
One of the tall white men smiled and said: "That is the will of the gods."
"Only if you join us can you know this secret."
Others suddenly felt a little bit frightened.
Li Cang shook his head and said: "You guys go."
"Haha, you will agree sooner or later." The tall white man did not take direct force, but looked at the three women in the yard greedily.
Then the six people left.
As soon as they left, everyone immediately began to discuss nervously.
"There must be something wrong with them."
"Yeah, I'm afraid they want us to be cannon fodder."
No one has died these days.
Except for the two people who died when they woke up, they were relatively safe.
In this case, they are not willing to join others rashly.
That meant huge risks, especially for three women.
This night.
Zhang Meng suddenly saw a note, which was projected by the tall white man with a stone.
"There are no women, that's because we need sacrifices."
This sentence made Zhang Meng realize the seriousness of the problem.
What an amazing secret, he thought to himself.
I'm afraid the people in that camp gained the power of awakening through sacrifice.
Of course, in the apocalypse, survival is everyone's top priority.
But the people in this camp chose a different path.
They believed that by sacrificing women to the gods they could gain strength and a chance of survival.
Zhang Meng naturally thought this was wrong.
In comparison, Li Cang is much kinder than them.
At least five people awakened three people.
But for every person they awaken, they kill one or more women.
Zhang Meng decided to go out and meet the tall white man.
There's no use hiding.
The campground is here.
He quietly left the church.
The tall white man was standing under a tree, waiting for him.
"Let me tell you, the danger will get bigger and bigger if you go on."
"You still have three women here. You can sacrifice them to gain strength to survive greater crises."
Zhang Meng frowned and said: "But what will happen next? Without women, civilization will become extinct!"
"Hahaha, what a fool, who cares about something so far away? It's enough to survive the remaining fifty years." The tall white man sneered.
"But women are limited after all." Zhang Meng shook his head.
"It's okay. You can also turn a man into a woman. Don't you know that we have more than a hundred kinds of knowledge here?" The tall white man looked at Zhang Meng in surprise.
"In that case, why not use the extra men from the beginning?"
"Of course to appease other people, I say this just to appease other men in your church." The tall white man smiled.
What a sinister BOSS-like character.
Zhang Meng then rejected the other party: "This is too cruel, I will not agree."
"Idiot, you have never seen a real danger, a crisis that can be overcome in one step. If you don't break through your original bottom line, there is no way you can survive in the apocalypse."
"Are you from the east? You should have seen how humans are passed down in history, right? People eat each other to survive the last minute famine and pass on civilization."
"What we do now is a lot more merciful." The tall white man mocked.
Zhang Meng fell silent.
He turned back.
At the same time, be vigilant secretly.
Fortunately, the tall white man did not attack him.
In the days that followed, every attack became increasingly difficult.
Li Cang couldn't help but awaken more people to assist him.
However, this is just drinking poison to quench thirst, because the enemy's strength is also rising rapidly.
If newly awakened people cannot maximize their own power, if they cannot grow themselves vigorously, they will be unable to make ends meet.
Then Zhang Meng discovered that Li Cang began to change.
He has an extra eye.
He discovered that Li Cang secretly peeked into another camp.
He finally found out.
Every night when the moon is full, the people in that camp will perform a mysterious ritual.
They would capture innocent people everywhere as sacrifices to the gods they believed in.
This ritual increases their power day by day.
This allows them to exceed the intensity of Doomsday attacks.
But it also makes their minds twisted.
Zhang Meng knew that if there was no better way, Li Cang would follow this path.
He could tell that Li Cang might be a little worried, but not much.
He delves into the hidden secrets of this game world.
He knows these secrets may be the key to their survival.
He began to search for clues in various ruins and began to try to listen to some mysterious sounds at night.
Late one night, when the moon was high in the sky.
Zhang Meng heard the little girl's voice again.
Her voice revealed a bit of boredom.
"Oh, it's boring. I want to see blood flowing into a river."
Another voice sounded.
"Xiao Huan, you girl, why are you talking like this? You must have love and peace in your heart to be upright."
Zhang Meng could only break into a cold sweat after hearing this.
