Mystery Makes Me Strong

After hearing this, Zhang Meng decided to think about it.

At least he had to collect enough information before considering awakening.

He returned to the ruins of the church, surrounded by the desolate scene of the end of the world.

He looked around for other people to ask.

Sure enough, other people also knew about awakening, but they didn't dare to go.

"It's too dangerous. The last time Old Tom went there, he came back with only one hand."

"Later it was canned. It's a pity. At least it's 120 kilograms of meat and bones."

"Ugh..." Hearing this, Zhang Meng's stomach twitched violently in his abdominal cavity.

He almost vomited.

But the people around him took it for granted.

Of course, he could understand that there were many records of cannibalism in history just because of ordinary famine.

What's more, it's the end of the world now?

He ran to the corner and held back his vomiting. He couldn't let others see his weakness.

Every twitch of his stomach seemed to remind him that this was a new beginning and a cruel test. He knew that to survive in this doomsday, he had to rely on strength and wisdom, and most importantly, courage.

If he didn't die, he had to gamble his life.

Or he would live day by day numbly and die in the end.

In contrast, Li Cang, the guy with a death, looked like the protagonist of a novel, with three white girls and a bunch of cannon fodder.

As night fell, the survivors sat around the bonfire in the church yard.

They were tired and alert.

Today they had ordinary food, mashed potatoes with a little salt, and there was nothing good to eat.

The only food that could prove that it was from the modern world was a vitamin pill for each person.

This was also an important supply searched from the foggy area.

After dinner, everyone went to rest.

Then Li Cang asked people to take turns to keep watch.

They knew that night was when monsters were most active.

In the middle of the night, a low roar broke the silence of the night, and the survivors immediately became nervous.

They picked up their weapons and prepared to fight.

Zhang Meng also got out of his dormitory immediately.

He was assigned an iron pipe.

Most of the others used homemade shotguns, and some had standard AKs and pistols.

A few people had melee weapons and shields. Zhang Meng thought they were newcomers like himself.

Everyone came to the fence of the church and began to stare at the dark night outside.

The torches barely illuminated the area of ​​five or six meters.

A group of monsters rushed out of the darkness.

"Dark hounds!"

"Be careful, fire!"

The hounds' eyes flashed red and their mouths dripped with corrosive saliva.

The survivors opened fire one after another.

The bullets streaked in the night sky, hitting the monsters' bodies and making dull sounds.

Soon the hounds fell to the ground one after another.

Li Cang stood at the end. He looked around coldly and did not make a move.

Zhang Meng was allowed to stand around him.

He really wanted to know if bullets could be made here?

But thinking carefully, this seemed to be a Western background, so there would definitely be no shortage of bullets.

Unless Doomsday has the ability to corrode, you should know that there are too many Western arms stores, and bullets are calculated in billions.

It’s just that there don’t seem to be many guns, and many people use homemade earth guns.

Soon, the hounds rushed to the fence and were stopped by trenches and fences.

This allowed the shotgun to exert its power.

They were shot to death one by one.

Just as Zhang Meng breathed a sigh of relief, Li Cang frowned and listened carefully.

Sure enough, after the hounds, a particularly powerful monster-the iron-skinned zombie appeared.

There were three of them.

Each of them had skin as hard as iron, and ordinary bullets could not penetrate it at all.

They were so powerful that one punch could penetrate the wall, and one kick could make the ground shake.

This made Zhang Meng feel worried.

And Li Cang finally stood at the forefront.

There was only indifference in his eyes.

He pulled out an alloy sword from somewhere, rushed forward, and started a fierce battle with the iron-skinned zombie.

Zhang Meng immediately realized that the other party might have "space".

Everyone stopped shooting and looked at each other nervously.

The skin of the iron zombie was so hard that Li Cang's alloy sword could only leave a shallow mark on it.

The iron zombie's counterattack was fierce and swift. Its fist hit Li Cang's sword hard, making a deafening roar.

Li Cang seemed to feel unprecedented pressure.

Fortunately, the three iron zombies did not cooperate with each other. The other two zombies stayed aside, just staring at Li Cang and drooling.

This made Zhang Meng very strange.

The zombie didn't seem to be interested in them.

At this time, Li Cang was looking for a way to defeat this monster.

He was observing the movements of the iron zombie, trying to find its weakness.

Finally, he found that the joints of the iron zombie were its only weakness.

The skin there was relatively thin and the defense was weak.

And every time it moved, the joints made a sound of being overwhelmed.

Li Cang took a deep breath, and his eyes turned cold.

He began to adjust his fighting style.

He no longer confronted the Iron Zombie head-on, but began to flexibly dodge its attacks and look for opportunities to attack its joints.

After a fierce battle, Li Cang finally found an opportunity. He stabbed the joint of the iron zombie with a sword, and the iron zombie roared in pain.

Its movements became slow.

Li Cang took the opportunity to launch the final attack. His sword deeply pierced the neck of the iron zombie, and then chopped off the opponent's head with a sword.

The first iron zombie finally fell.

However, at this time, the second zombie followed.

Zhang Meng looked at this scene and always felt a sense of disobedience.

This is really a doomsday game, one monster after another.

A slightly more real-time doomsday game will also have a situation of monster siege.

Fortunately, this is good for them.

If three monster zombies really come together, Li Cang may find it difficult to deal with it.

After a battle finally ended, Li Cang stood next to the corpses of three iron zombies.

His body was soaked with sweat and his breathing was rapid.

Everyone rushed forward to help.

Some people brought drinks, some wiped sweat, and some took a recliner.

Li Cang was not polite and sat on it directly.

Everyone knew that this battle had consumed a lot of his physical strength.

Zhang Meng understood more clearly that it seemed that Li Cang really needed more helpers.

The other party was not lying.

At this time, Li Cang's eyes fell on Zhang Meng and other survivors.

There was a hint of hesitation in his eyes.

He was reluctant to let others awaken before.

Because he was worried that the power of awakening would make them lose control.

He thought that he would be the king in this city.

He is living much better now than before the end of the world.

There are women, subordinates, food and drink.

It's just hateful that the monsters will become stronger and stronger.

If three people come together today, he will have to run away.

That person living in the end of the world is worse than before the end of the world.

He thought to himself that it was time to give in.

He needed more power to fight these monsters.

"I need more power now," Li Cang said after resting, standing in the ruins of the church, "I am willing to help you awaken, but you must promise that you will use this power to protect everyone." Zhang Meng and other survivors looked at each other.

They were all very excited.

In fact, they had wanted this kind of power for a long time.

It was just that Li Cang covered up the information very tightly.

He only talked about the general process, entering the fog, killing monsters, and getting gifts.

There were no details at all.

What are the monsters like?

What are the dangers in the fog?

What are the gifts?

None of these.

No wonder several people who rashly entered and awakened died.

Without information, how many people can figure out the strategy at once?

This is reality, not a game, and everyone has only one life.

To pass the level, you have to use thousands of lives to test out a way.

And if the successful person does not talk about his experience, the people behind him will have to repeat the price.

A trace of determination appeared in everyone's eyes.

They knew that this was their only chance.

As for the promise, it was just a casual talk.

Zhang Meng knew that they would not take it seriously.

The final decision to keep the promise still depends on Li Cang's power and whether he can suppress others.

"I am willing to promise," Zhang Meng said, "I will use this power to protect everyone."

Others followed suit.

In fact, in Zhang Meng's opinion, Li Cang should just say he is loyal to him.

He had to use a high-sounding name.

In fact, it was to reduce the resistance of those neutrals, to have more informers at the critical moment, and to have more control over the church camp.

Li Cang nodded, and there seemed to be a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

Then he began to select five people.

Among them was Zhang Meng.

They came to the backyard of a church.

Li Cang began to teach the five people how to awaken.

"If you want to awaken, you need to exercise yourself and train your body to the physical fitness level of a normal athlete."

"So at the beginning, I will give you enough nutrition, which will last for two weeks to improve your physical fitness."

"Then you will enter the fog area, and I will take you in."

"I will circle some designated monsters, and then you will kill them alone."

Hearing this, everyone realized that there was such a simple way.

No wonder those who wanted to awaken by themselves before all died.

They must have encountered too difficult monsters, so they failed.

"Okay, I'll take Zhang Meng there first, and the four of you continue training."

No one objected to Li Cang's words.

Because Zhang Meng has the best physique.

They also saw it.

This is normal. Zhang Meng comes from a modern city. Although his physical fitness is not good, he has not been destroyed by the doomsday. These days of training and physical labor have restored his physical fitness to that of a normal person.

...

Five days later.

Zhang Meng followed Li Cang and entered the fog area in the envious eyes of others.

One of the white girls even threw him a wink.

It must be said that this foreigner is open-minded.

The fog area is a place full of unknowns, and various monsters are hidden in the fog.

Their eyes often flash red light in the fog.

They often have various corrosive venoms in their mouths.

Zhang Meng and Li Cang carefully passed through the fog, their eyes vigilantly scanning the surroundings.

Li Cang led him while explaining the information about the fog area.

This made Zhang Meng a little strange. Why didn't the other party tell him in advance?

So that he could think and remember it well.

Soon, Li Cang took Zhang Meng to an abandoned gymnasium.

"Here, there is a powerful monster. I will weaken it first, and then you will go forward and kill it."

As he said, Li Cang handed him an axe.

Zhang Meng saw that the other party did have space.

The axe appeared out of thin air.

Then Li Cang took the lead in entering the gymnasium.

Not long after, a humanoid monster over three meters tall appeared.

Its eyes were like burning charcoal, and its skin was also as hard as iron.

Li Cang waved the big sword in his hand again and started a fierce battle with the monster.

Zhang Meng stood aside.

There was a hint of tension in his eyes. He knew that this was his best chance to awaken.

With the big account leading, if he still failed, there would be no need to play.

At this time, Li Cang obviously showed a stronger power.

Zhang Meng suddenly realized that the opponent's strength exceeded his and others' expectations.

Obviously Li Cang was reserved.

The other party wanted to see which people were unstable.

Soon, the tall humanoid monster began to lose strength.

It was panting and had begun to lie on the ground gasping for breath.

Li Cang immediately shouted loudly: "Zhang Meng, now is the time for you to awaken, come and kill him!"

Zhang Meng took a deep breath, his eyes full of determination.

He rushed towards the monster, and a powerful force surged in his body.

He raised his axe and hit the monster hard, making a dull sound.

Soon, the humanoid monster was chopped to death by Zhang Meng like chopping wood.

He was very excited.

It turned out that awakening was so simple.

This is the game.

The big account takes the small account to do the task, just like Diablo, you can pass the hell level in an hour.

The small account may not be able to pass the level in one or two months.

With the help of Li Cang, Zhang Meng awakened quickly.

He only felt that his own strength was growing rapidly, and his body became stronger.

His eyes flashed with new strength.

Now he is like Li Cang, an awakener who can defeat monsters.

Zhang Meng felt more and more that with a strong man like Li Cang leading him, the awakening process became extremely fast.

Just like in the game, the big account leads the small account, with the help of the strong, the originally difficult job transfer task became much easier.

But why didn't the other party help others before?

Of course, he also knew that this should be Li Cang's desire to monopolize the right to speak in the survivor camp.

The two then returned to the church.

At this time, Zhang Meng's eyes were a little confused.

He only remembered that he had finally awakened after a hard battle, and he finally gained new power.

But he didn't know the specific process.

He should have forgotten what Li Cang had said!

Li Cang looked at Zhang Meng, with a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.

"You did well before," he said, "but now, you need to learn how to control your power."

Zhang Meng put his mind at ease.

He just nodded, with a hint of determination in his eyes.

He wanted to survive.

No matter how hard it was, he had to survive.

He knew that he had to train harder and he had to learn how to use this new power.
