Mystery Makes Me Strong

In the refrigerator shelter.

The light shines on everyone's face, illuminating their regretful expressions.

If they had known that the two were so strong, they should not have been so arrogant before.

Under Zhang Meng's passionate words and the two's looming fists.

The survivors sincerely realized their mistakes one by one.

They apologized to Li Cang one after another, with varying degrees of guilt and apology on their faces.

An apology meeting began.

Although everyone knew that they were acting, they also knew that Li Cang also knew that they were acting.

But this scene must be played. After this scene, everyone can continue to move forward.

Everyone can pretend that the matter has passed and continue to work together.

It can be said that "hypocrisy" is a necessary skill for humans, which ensures the large-scale cooperation between people.

Although everyone hates it and thinks it is a derogatory term.

But it is precisely indispensable.

If everyone is straightforward, there will be no lubricant, and cooperation will not be possible, and they will conflict with each other.

The first person to stand up and apologize was old Thomson.

He is an old man with great prestige among the players.

His face is engraved with traces of time, and his eyes are shining with a very sincere light.

But Li Cang knew that this guy had brutally killed his two sons just because they robbed his food.

He walked up to Li Cang and bowed deeply.

"Great Li Cang, I apologize to you for our previous rudeness." Old Thomson's voice was hoarse and powerful, "We didn't realize your sacrifice and efforts. We only saw the results, but ignored the process."

Li Cang looked at Old Tom, and a feeling of disgust surged in his heart.

But he still smiled and nodded, accepting Old Tom's apology.

Because what he was going to do next, he still needed these guys to cover up.

Then, the young woman, Erica, also came over.

There were tears in her eyes, and her hands were tightly clasped together.

She was sincere.

Because before, it was she and her husband who stood up to speak for the two.

"Li Cang, I'm really sorry." Erica's voice trembled, "I don't know what you've been through, I don't know what you've done for us."

"I know everyone is wrong, but I can't stand up to persuade them, I hope you can forgive me."

Li Cang patted Emily's shoulder.

There was a hint of sincerity in his eyes.

He sighed: "It's okay, Erica, I understand you, we are all fighting for survival."

The atmosphere of apology spread quickly.

The atmosphere gradually relaxed.

Everyone was embarrassed at the beginning, and with the lead of Old Tom and Emily, others began to apologize to Li Cang.

Their expressions were different, some were ashamed, some were dissatisfied, and some were relieved.

...

And at this time.

Xiao Huan asked Wen Rensheng:

"Why don't they apologize sincerely?"

"Why are they still thinking about it when they are apologizing?"

"Only one or two people are really apologizing."

Wen Rensheng shook his head and said, "This is the human heart, a complicated human heart. Above survival, below rules, the human heart is mixed in between the two."

"It keeps shaking between these two aspects. Without survival, the lowest personal needs cannot be met, and the human heart will slide to the worst and become the heart of a beast."

"Without rules, personal power breaks through the restrictions of rules, and the human heart will also slide to the worst and become the heart of a demon."

Xiao Huan blinked his eyes, indicating that he didn't understand.

"If you don't understand the human heart, your ability to transform cannot break through to the highest level." Wen Rensheng shook his head.

"Oh, I see."

...

At this time, a middle-aged man, John, had a look of relief in his eyes.

He walked in front of Li Cang and stretched out his hand.

"Li Cang, I wronged you before, I apologize to you." John's voice was a little trembling, "I am willing to follow you, I want to face the challenges of the future with you."

Li Cang held John's hand, with a hint of smile in his eyes.

"Thank you, John, let's work together."

As more and more people apologized to Li Cang, the atmosphere in the camp gradually eased.

People began to sit together.

They began to share food and stories, and they began to rebuild trust and friendship.

They are looking forward to the end of the doomsday.

Li Cang sat on a chair.

There was a hint of cunning in his eyes.

He looked at Zhang Meng.

He kept persuading himself in his mind.

The rabbit dies and the dog is cooked, the bird is dead and the bow is hidden.

The great emperors of the predecessors are pointing the way for him.

And he knows that this is just the beginning for him.

If he wants to have his own power, he still has a long way to go.

You must be ruthless!

If you are not ruthless, you can't stand firm.

After all, this involves the highest personal power grab.

...

And at this time.

Zhang Meng walked to Li Cang.

There was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

"You did a great job, Li Cang." Zhang Meng said, "You brought us together."

Li Cang took the opportunity to say, "Haha, yes, the atmosphere is so good today, and there is hope for the end of the doomsday. Why don't we hold a banquet?"

"It's also good to celebrate our victory and unity."

Zhang Meng didn't notice much.

He was also a little greedy.

At this time, the weakness of human nature, a little less ambition, made him unable to suppress this desire for food.

...

Wen Rensheng found it very interesting when he saw this.

The general trend often does not change.

But when it comes to personal destiny and family destiny, it often happens in a moment.

For example, one dynasty after another is still a dynasty.

But which family becomes the master of the dynasty is likely to be changed by external factors.

Perhaps a natural disaster, or perhaps a drunkenness, the ending will be different.

Just like Cao Cao, if he hadn't wasted too much time in the early stage and it took him nearly ten years to attack Yuan Shao, he would not have no time to continue to unify the world after unifying the north.

He defeated Yuan Shao, and then used a strategy of sitting back and watching the internal fighting of the Yuan family.

It seems smart, but some people have analyzed that this is a typical ending of "taking a small advantage and suffering a big loss".

Sometimes you can see that some victories must be obtained quickly even if the cost is high.

Waiting more time will reduce the cost, but precious opportunities will also be lost.

Cao Cao's initial intention was to become a powerful official, but he did not have the determination to change the dynasty directly, which made him choose to wait slowly.

This time, his descendants were not strong enough, and he did not produce two heroes in a row, which wasted the strategic opportunity.

Now, Zhang Meng and Li Cang have come to the strategic opportunity period for two people.

He naturally would not interfere.

He just wanted to see the result and gain some mystery by the way.

The interweaving of the fate of such people and the general trend is very interesting.

...

Then, Li Cang began to hold a banquet enthusiastically.

"I hope this banquet can be a new beginning, an opportunity for everyone to let go of the past and face the future together."

"Let's take out the canned food, instant noodles, and drinks in reserve!"

Everyone cheered when they heard it.

The player survivors got busy. They collected all the food and drinks they could find. Although the resources were limited, they tried their best to make the banquet rich.

Some candles were lit, and the festive candlelight illuminated everyone's face and warmed everyone's heart.

Oh, it's a hot doomsday now, so it's okay.

People's hearts are originally very hot.

Li Cang stood in the center of the shelter.

There was genuine excitement in his eyes.

"Tonight, we want to celebrate our victory and our unity."

His voice rang in everyone's heart, immediately inspiring everyone's expectations.

As the banquet officially began, the survivors sat around the long table, sharing food, stories and drinks.

Laughter and conversation echoed in the camp, breaking the silence of the night.

Li Cang took out the treasured wine.

There was sincerity in his eyes.

"Zhang Meng, this wine is specially prepared for you." He said, "You have made the greatest contribution."

"Everyone, do you think we should all toast him?"

"Yes."

"We should give Mr. Zhang a glass of wine."

Everyone had different thoughts at this time.

More people were thinking about supporting Zhang Meng and checking Li Cang.

Some people thought they should curry favor with Zhang Meng, after all, the latter was also very powerful.

So everyone began to want to take this opportunity to toast.

Zhang Meng took the wine glass, but he was not used to drinking.

"This glass of wine is our gratitude to you."

Li Cang then took the lead in raising his glass and drank it all.

Zhang Meng looked at the people's expectations and cheering, and he had no choice but to drink it as well.

The wine flowed into his throat, and a choking feeling spread throughout his body.

He felt a little dizzy.

Then one after another came up to toast.

He drank more and more happily, his mind slowly became excited, and he drank more and more.

The alcohol began to paralyze his brain and made him lose consciousness.

As the banquet progressed, Zhang Meng began to feel dizzy.

His eyes became blurred, and his consciousness began to blur.

He realized that Li Cang was using the wine to make him unconscious.

"No, Li Cang, you..." Zhang Meng's voice became vague.

His last bit of reason made him regret it.

"You can't do that. The result of your doing that is destruction."

"You know, there are gods above us."

He used up his last bit of strength and tried hard to say it.

Li Cang smiled, with a hint of apology in his eyes.

"Zhang Meng, I have to do this." He said, "I need you to sleep for a while."

Gods can't stop him from getting real power!

He doesn't want to struggle anymore.

He doesn't want to be an ant, an athlete watched by gods.

He wants to be the master!

Zhang Meng's body slowly fell down.

His eyes closed, and his breathing became steady. Li Cang looked at Zhang Meng, with a hint of complexity in his eyes.

After all, Zhang Meng is indeed a good man.

The banquet continued, but the atmosphere seemed to become a little heavy.

The player survivors looked at Zhang Meng who suddenly got drunk.

They seemed to realize something.

There was a hint of doubt and worry in their eyes.

"Li Cang, why are you doing this?" Erica rushed forward and asked.

Li Cang took a deep breath, and he looked at everyone coldly.

"You won't understand if I do this."

"Because you don't know the truth behind it."

"You just need to know that I am doing this to protect all of us."

He said, "Zhang Meng has a powerful force, but he doesn't know how to use it."

He looked at everyone, then turned and left.

People made way for him.

Li Cang knew that for real power, he had to take the most ruthless measures.

He decided to go to the location of the hot core, absorb the power of the core, and transform it into his real power.

Li Cang crossed the forest again and crossed the dry river.

He came to the huge underground space again.

That was where the hot core was.

The lava in the lava pool rolled and emitted a fiery light.

In the center of the lava pool, the hot core was suspended quietly, emitting a dazzling light, as if calling Li Cang.

It was just a child.

It was curious about all new life.

Li Cang stood by the lava pool, he could feel the heat of the core and its power.

He took a deep breath, his body began to change, and his skin began to emit a faint light.

He used the power he gained when he first awakened.

He believed that was his real power.

Li Cang began to try to communicate with the hot core.

His spirit gradually extended, passing through the air and connecting with the consciousness of the core.

He could feel the power of the core and its heat.

"Give me your power."

"I will give more."

"I will give you everything you want!"

He began to try to absorb the power of the core and transform it into his true power.

As Li Cang communicated, the hot core began to respond.

Its heat began to flow into Li Cang's body.

His skin began to emit a stronger red light.

Li Cang could feel the power of the core flowing in his body, and his body began to adapt to this power.

His body began to change.

His muscles became energy.

He broke away from his mortal body.

His brain tissue began to crystallize.

His consciousness began to break away from the simple bioelectric structure.

He began to become a life similar to AI intelligence.

His eyes became sharper.

His power was greatly enhanced by the stimulation of the core.

His body became stronger, his speed became faster, and his strength became more amazing.

In short, it was similar to a small Superman.

At some point, Li Cang walked out from the edge of the lava pool.

His body was covered in flames, and his eyes flashed with new power.

He knew that he had become the master of this world.

…

Li Cang stood above the world.

He looked down.

His body was surrounded by the cold and hot doomsday power.

His eyes flashed with unprecedented power and confidence.

He was one of the survivors.

But now, he has the power of doomsday.

He became the creator.

He began to absorb heat.

Soon, the hot doomsday receded and the world began to become normal.

He was like a child in an ant pile.

When the child is happy, it is a blessing for the ants. A few pieces of candy can keep the ants through the winter.

When the child is angry, it is a disaster for the ants. A pot of boiling water is a natural disaster.
