Mystery Makes Me Strong

After Zhang Meng sighed, he found that his eyes went dark.

The next moment he woke up and found himself lying in a vast expanse of white snow.

The cold wind cut across his cheek like a knife, and as far as he could see, there was only endless ice and snow and ruins.

He got up quickly, only to feel cold all over, from the skin to the bones.

He looked around and found that he and his companions had been separated after the sacrifice.

Obviously, the gods promised to change the stage for them, but did not promise more.

This made him feel a little bad.

He immediately checked the player panel.

Fortunately, the panel was still there.

It was just that he had originally reached level 75, which was basically invincible among monsters in the original foggy world.

But now there is only level 10 left.

He clenched his fists, and he still had about 2 times the strength of an ordinary person, and it seemed that his physical fitness was still 2 times.

Now, he had to face this extremely cold doomsday world alone.

A physical fitness of 2 times that of a normal person could not resist the severe cold and famine.

Zhang Meng's first reaction was to find a shelter.

He looked around again and finally saw that this was an abandoned city, most of which was covered in snow and wind, with only a collapsed building not far away.

He hurried over.

Finally, he curled up in a half-collapsed building, using broken door panels and bricks, and filling the gaps with frozen snow to build a simple shelter.

His fingers were frozen purple, and he rubbed his hands hard, trying to find a trace of warmth.

He knew that in order to survive, he had to find food and fuel.

He touched his body, and he was naturally prepared before he came.

It turned out that the energy bars, chocolates, and vitamin tablets he brought with him were all gone.

In other words, he only brought one set of clothes.

Forget it, it's good to have a hanging belt.

After resting for a while, his 2x physical strength still eased.

He began to search in the ruins.

Every can of food and every piece of coal could be the key to survival.

His stomach was rumbling, but he didn't dare to stop to rest, every minute and every second could be a contest of life and death.

During the search, Zhang Meng found that the player template had an additional function, a chat function.

However, it was only in "regional chat" mode.

Soon he saw five people talking on it within 5 kilometers of him.

"Is anyone there?"

"I'm here."

"I'm also in X3."

"I found a strange phenomenon - some people's templates disappeared. I don't know what happened to my brother next to me, his player template disappeared." The first person who spoke said, "Where are you all? Ah, brother, what are you doing? Ah!"

Seeing this, Zhang Meng immediately became alert. He did not speak or expose himself.

The god is kind, so why did some people's templates disappear?

The reason is probably that the other party used the power of the player template to do bad things.

Changing a world is equivalent to conducting an inventory.

And now, his own template is still there, but most of the power has been taken away.

He took a deep breath.

He seemed to be abandoned by this world and forced to reincarnate in this frozen land.

But he will not be disappointed.

He finally found a pack of frozen instant noodles, a few wooden chairs, and even a lighter in the ruins of a house.

His talent for "precision" is still there, but it is not useful now.

But he can finally survive.

In fact, he estimated that he could last more than 20 days with ice and snow.

But he also realized that this kind of collection and search mode requires a lot of people to survive.

If you are unlucky, you may not find anything for hundreds of days.

But you can do other work to earn food.

He then searched for other survivors in this abandoned city.

After several days of arduous journey, Zhang Meng finally found a survivor camp.

The camp was hosted by a white woman named Erica.

The woman was known for her fairness and kindness.

She was the soul of the camp.

Erica took a fancy to Zhang Meng, after all, he was very strong now.

So she gave Zhang Meng food and shelter against all odds, which made him decide to join the camp temporarily.

Life in the camp is hard.

There are 45 people now.

Every morning, you have to get up to search for food and fuel to accumulate.

Some people also tried to do hydroponics in front of the stove.

The temperature during the day was also very low, with wind and snow, and no direct sunlight, so it was difficult for plants to grow.

People still supported each other and fought against the cold and hunger together.

Zhang Meng participated in the daily tasks of the camp.

Although his strength was weakened, his will had been strengthened after training.

He began to think of ways to completely solve this pattern.

There is also a prerequisite for offering sacrifices to the god, that is, you have to be full and drink enough to laugh, otherwise the laugh will be too fake.

Someone gave him information in the player channel.

"Do you know? It turns out that there are monsters near coal. I said why these people don't go to some coal mines and power plants to open survivor camps."

"Now there is a power plant near the camp where I am, which reserves millions of tons of coal, right? It may also be hundreds of thousands of tons."

"Enough for dozens of us."

"It's just that it's very dangerous to go and get it every time. You can't use a car because it makes too much noise."

"You have to carry it on your back. It's really deadly."

After Zhang Meng got this valuable information, plus the area was 5 kilometers wide, it was not difficult for him to find it.

Soon he also found the power plant.

It turned out that the power plant had collapsed long ago and was completely buried under the snow, dozens of meters deep.

No wonder they didn't search for it.

Now you can see that there is an artificially dug ice and snow cave there, which was obviously done by the player.

The player was able to find it because he had a "treasure hunting" talent.

Then he discussed with Erica, and they negotiated with the people in the other camp that both sides could share the coal from the power plant.

But the price was Erica's camp, which had to give the other party 10% of the income every day.

The reason was that this ice and snow cave was dug by them.

Erica naturally agreed.

They finally solved the problem of coal.

In this way, Zhang Meng gradually integrated into the camp.

However, a betrayal happened quietly.

One of Erica's confidants, named Mark, has always been dissatisfied with Erica's leadership.

Mark believes that the camp needs tougher means to survive, not Erica's kindness.

With the experience of the previous world, Zhang Meng understood it at a glance.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is a common thing in the end of the world.

This Mark wants to live as he pleases.

"We men risk our lives every day to carry coal, but we have to endure the insults of some people. Does this make sense?" Mark said angrily.

"I mean, the last time I found a woman, she actually despised me. It's outrageous!"

In fact, he was exaggerating.

The insults existed, but that was because they started it first.

And the reason why Erica can maintain order is because her husband is an honest boxer.

And this kind of ice and snow seems to have some special energy that freezes most guns and makes them unusable.

Maybe a few guns can still be used, but they didn't find them.

This magnifies the advantage of boxers.

But Mark gradually accumulated dissatisfaction. He provoked every fight and deliberately favored those men.

So he accumulated enough manpower.

Among the 45 people, 14 were young and middle-aged men, and the others were old people, women and children.

And Zhang Meng was also wooed by Mark.

But Zhang Meng didn't like any woman, so naturally he didn't have such a need, and he didn't want to break the current situation.

And that night, Max and his followers launched a rebellion.

They took advantage of the night and quietly disarmed the sentinels, and they rushed into Erica's room.

Erica was awakened, her eyes full of shock and confusion.

"Mark, what are you doing?" Erica's voice was trembling.

Mark showed a hideous smile on his face, "Erica, the world has changed."

"We need a new leader, someone who can lead us to survive better."

A trace of anger flashed in Erica's eyes, "Mark, do you think betrayal can solve the problem?"

"I know your idea, but doing so will only make everyone feel insecure."

"You are wrong, it will only make us more vulnerable."

Mark did not answer, he waved his hand, and his followers tied Erica up and locked her in a cold warehouse without a furnace connected, which was used to store food.

Then they rushed up again, grabbed Erica's husband, the poor boxer, who was sleeping soundly, and threw them into the warehouse together.

In there, people will be frozen to death in just half a day.

Others in the camp were stunned by this sudden change, and they didn't know what to do.

Zhang Meng witnessed all this, and his heart was full of anger.

He knew that he had to take action, and he couldn't let Max's betrayal succeed.

Unfortunately, he hasn't found a way to improve his experience yet.

He already knew that the monsters here either didn't appear, or they would be killed if they appeared.

It's similar to people and guns.

Usually no one has a gun, but once someone with a gun appears, you basically can't beat him.

Unless you design a terrain with many advantages.

Zhang Meng began to secretly contact those who were still loyal to Erica.

There were several 60-year-old people.

They still missed Erica's rule.

After all, Mark was too cruel. He ordered to directly cut their share and let them do the same work in the snow.

This was obviously sending them to death.

There were also some strong women.

The women knew what Mark was going to do.

In reality, conspiracies are often clear. Everyone actually knows it in their hearts, but many people just muddle through and don't want to face it in time.

Until the conspiracy suddenly happened one day.

There must be a leader who takes the lead in organizing everyone, so that the power of these rebels can be united.

Zhang Meng has a player template, and he also knows the existence of gods, so he is organized.

Because he can see hope and has a big road in his heart.

He finally united 20 people, and they planned to launch a counterattack tonight.

And Mark didn't let them go, because he wanted to find out the whereabouts of something from Erica.

That was a weapon that could scare away the ice monster.

But it couldn't be used against people.

Weapons like the old seal.

As night fell, Zhang Meng and his companions quietly approached the warehouse.

At this time, Mark and others began to get drunk.

It was impossible to expect these bastards to have any decent vigilance.

Zhang Meng quietly dealt with the guards.

When they opened the door of the warehouse, Erica's face showed a hint of surprise.

"Zhang Meng, you are here." There was a tremor in her voice.

Zhang Meng nodded, his eyes full of confidence.

"Erica, we must take back the camp and not let Mark's conspiracy succeed."

"That villain will only lead the camp to collapse."

Zhang Meng knew in his heart that with the gods around, how could he watch such a decadent thing?

Mark himself is greedy for comfort, so go to another camp and don't implicate him.

Erica was very happy, "I didn't misjudge you, let's take back our home together."

At this time, Zhang Meng suddenly found that his experience on his player panel had increased.

He went from level 10 to level 20!

And the physical fitness is equivalent to 4 times that of an ordinary person.

This is incredible.

It is equivalent to an ordinary person becoming a character like a great shark.

Zhang Meng felt that every breath was full of power at this time.

He knew that this was a gift from the gods.

This is the key to his survival in this world, and it is also his weapon against the cold and darkness.

As the level increased, Zhang Meng felt that his physical strength and endurance had improved significantly.

His body became stronger and his movements became more agile.

Now he is not afraid.

He is not worried about that bastard.

Because he can easily kill him.

Then Zhang Meng appeared in front of everyone.

He lifted Mark up like a chicken with one hand.

"Damn it, you obviously have such a strong power, why don't you be the king here, and work like a slave?" Mark said angrily.

He was not angry about his failure, nor was he angry that he was caught by Zhang Meng.

He was just angry that Zhang Meng obviously had such a strong power and worked honestly!

This broke his idea: Doomsday, the strong should do whatever they want!

Of course, it's because there are gods watching me.

This is really looking at me, not the kind of self-psychological comfort that there is a god above my head.

Zhang Meng sneered in his heart.

"You know nothing about power."

"You want to do whatever you want with such a little power? It's ridiculous."

Mark heard what the other party meant, but he didn't have the opportunity to ask.

Because Zhang Meng was about to kill him.

But at this time, he suddenly said to Erica: "You can't kill me."

"I haven't done anything evil, and there is a shortage of manpower in the camp. I can do hard labor to atone for my sins."

What made Zhang Meng laugh and cry was that Erica actually agreed.

"What he said makes sense. If we kill him now, there will be less labor. It's better to lock him up and let him do dangerous work." Erica said so.

Zhang Meng was about to refuse, but suddenly changed his mind. Yes, he didn't come here to seize the leader of the camp.

He came to please the gods.

The gods must want to see a story with ups and downs.
