Chapter 759: Chapter 426: First Squad (4K)

After getting rid of the Heartless Fruit, the players each returned to their respective rest rooms.

They had to quickly recover their physical strength and spirit, as no one knew when the next intense battle would occur. Fortunately, their combat power was sufficient. The players and combat personnel worked in three shifts, taking turns to defend the Safe Zone. This ensured that there were always more than sixty players on guard every minute.

Speaking of resting rooms, they were actually tin huts placed on the track, provided by the official bodies, while some were built by the players themselves.

This is where the players and combat personnel rested. As for the civilians, they were in deeper, safer areas. Except for a few Terror Devils with special abilities, other Terror Devils who wanted to attack the civilians inside could only do so by breaking through the Safe Zone.

Some players had been dispatched to the 21st Safety Zone where Li Changhe had previously been.

After Li Changhe and his group could not return, the pressure to defend there has significantly increased. As a result, the officials sent some players for reinforcement.

Players also led civilians to seek refuge in various small Safe Zones.

Bai said that they had just received civilians from the 19th Safety Zone, which meant increased defense pressure. The 19th Safety Zone being breached by the Abyssal Worms was an unavoidable situation.

However, at least for now, humans have not experienced widespread collapse within the fog.

Naturally, Li Changhe went to her rest room with the girl.

"As it appears currently, the situation within disaster fog is still under control. Many dangerous Terror Devils have been eliminated cleanly without even being able to exhibit their full strength,"

After the girl changed into her pajamas from her trench coat, she rested her head on Li Changhe’s arm and said, drawing circles on his chest with her left index finger: "However, Terror Devils will continue to emerge relentlessly. We have to be careful with how we proceed."

Because she was lying down on her side, the soft bedspread did not really block Li Changhe’s gaze from her blushing, exposed shoulders.

Her soft body next to his, the warmth of her breath warming Li Changhe’s neck.

And under the blanket, her beautiful slender legs, soft like tender bamboo shoots, brushed against his leg without meaning to.

It made Li Changhe feel a little thirsty.

"It’s presumed to be the case, the abilities of the Terror Devils are exceptional, they are not to be taken lightly. Like the Heartless Fruit just now, had it not been for the officials acquiring intelligence on it, nobody would have detected the anomaly before it was too late," Li Changhe responded softly. If it were allowed to spread unmonitored, it would cause entire Safe Zones to descend into chaos. Killing a parasitic host would only result in the killer becoming the next host - a truly indefensible situation.

This kind of ability that exploited humanity’s dark side was dangerously and eerily potent. If it were to take root and flourish, humans could end up exterminating themselves without any interference from the Terror Devils.

"Hmm? Are you implying that you will be tempted by Chen Yu?" the girl asked. She twisted her finger on Li Changhe’s chest, teasing him with a vibrant smile.

"See, you took the Heartless Fruit’s words to heart. Am I that kind of person? Honestly!" Li Changhe complained, "Your XP is really strange."

Feeling a little embarrassed by what he said, the girl pulled up the blanket to cover herself.

Shortly after that, Li Changhe suddenly inhaled sharply and his body stiffened.

He thought to himself that whenever the girl would bite or twist him, his 13-point physique would feel utterly futile.

Consequently, he hummed and climbed under the blanket, too.

He decided to test if his physique was as powerless as it seemed.

...

And thus, on the afternoon of the third day after the disaster fog began,

Li Changhe, once again displaying his invincible physique, arrived at the meeting room in the 9th Safety Zone.

As for the girl, she was still catching up on sleep. After all, she didn’t get enough sleep the previous night.

Cough...

As a LV10 player and of Champion Level, it was only natural for Li Changhe to be invited to join the Kill Squad.

This was the time to identify the highly dangerous Terror Devils, and to distribute the tasks to effectively kill them.

There were already quite a few players chatting in the meeting room.

They were members of the Kill Squad who had rested. All of them were players above LV10.

When Li Changhe arrived, some players greeted him, some remained silent, and others were acting oddly.

"Hey, Mr. Li Ba. Over here, over here." A player with a ghost face motioned for Li Changhe to sit next to them. He seemed to be on friendly terms with Li Changhe, probably because they knew each other’s identities.

His level was LV12, so he naturally got invited to join the Kill Squad.

"I thought you were not going to attend the meeting. I planned on informing you later after the meeting. Now, please guide us." The player with a ghost face said, asking for his advice.

The official player next to him, who always wore an expressionless face, nodded.However, he was one of the official players who had helped Li Changhe learn to use weapons before.

LV11[Unparalleled Internal Energy: Water Moon]

He was an Extraordinary Soldier with formidable power. At least, during Li Changhe’s weapon learning period, he had never managed to win a match against Water Moon.

To kill Terror Devils more effectively, the Kill Squads were further subdivided. They changed from squads of ten to squads of five.

For effective cooperation, all team members were familiar with each other.

Li Changhe was assigned to the first squad, along with the girl, Chen Yu, the Ghost Face player, and Water Moon.

The combat power was actually not that balanced. The players had all witnessed Li Changhe’s power. He and the girl should not have been put in the same group.

Not to mention someone like Water Moon, an elite of the battlefield. He, along with the girl and Li Changhe, should have been separated into different squads.
