Chapter 761: Chapter 427: Cooperation

Old Zhao, Zhao Qianhui, three days ago, he was still an ordinary high school student.

He was supposed to be working hard for the college entrance examination in a few months and madly answering questions.

But at this moment, he is fully armed outside the Safe Zone, shooting at the gathered Terror Devils in the distance.

It was a more than three-meter-long, yellow-bodied, lizard-like creature with a head covered in yellow fur.

Due to the long distance, the bullets only hit the wall beside the creature, causing no harm to it.

It glanced at Old Zhao in the distance and entered the dark ruins.

"It’s getting harder to fight. These guys are no longer as reckless as before, charging into the Safe Zone," Zhao Qianhui exhaled. After all this time, he could calmly shoot at the Terror Devils without caring what they looked like.

"That’s right, no matter how many turrets, combat personnel, or even players there are outside the Safe Zone, they would charge and then be effectively killed. Now they are becoming more cautious," a combatant said, "Sigh, when will this end? By the way, Xiao Zhao, why don’t you go to the rear? You are so young; you should be a student, right?"

People with combat abilities who are willing to fight have joined the Combat Squad, wearing special battle dress and armed with firearms.

Others are placed in the safer rear.

"In this situation, every bit of combat power counts. How could I hide in the rear?" Zhao Qianhui laughed, "Is it not better for us to kill as many Terror Devils as possible and get out sooner?"

"True," the combatant nodded, "It is said that there are not many players, and to resist more than four hundred thousand Terror Devils, we still have to make some effort."

"That’s the truth." Zhao Qianhui nodded and headed towards the Safe Zone, saying, "Let’s go; it’s time to train. The more you learn, the more life-saving skills you have."

The authorities are now intensively training combat personnel, some of whom are white-collar workers, some workers, and some students. To perform well, they must train intensively.

While players indeed are strong, they are not invincible. Even Li Changhe can be exhausted. So they must strengthen themselves as much as possible.

The number 9 Safe Zone is still quite lively. Although some players have been dispatched to support other Safe Zones or kill Terror Devils, there are still many players here.

They are generous in teaching combat techniques to the personnel, of course, mainly joint techniques and other skills.

It is difficult for combat personnel to learn any useful skills in a short time, so they can only start with joint techniques.

"Your attributes are not as high as those of the players. If the enemy is a humanoid Terror Devil, its attributes may be higher than yours. So when your bullets run out and the demons get close, the only thing you can rely on is joint techniques. Although it’s unlikely to kill the Terror Devils, it can effectively restrict them," a player dressed in a robe and carrying a long sword on his back said, "Of course, when the demons break in close, we players won’t just stand by. However, it’s possible that there are too many demons, and we can’t cope in time. At that time, you’ll have to count on yourselves."

Saying so, the player took out three wooden figures from his [Backpack].

"These are training dummies. Their strength and agility attributes are at most 7 points, enough for your training," the robed player said, "Now, form groups of three and try to use joint techniques on them. Remember, when facing an enemy with higher attributes than you, do not blindly compete for strength. What you need to do is lock their joints at the right time and then let your teammates finish them off!"

"What if there are no teammates around?" a combatant asked.

"...Then fight to the death," the robed player said after a moment of silence, "Hopefully, it won’t come to that."

The wooden dummies trembled and assumed battle stances one after another.

Old Zhao licked his lips, seeing his teammates hesitating, took the initiative to charge forward, blocking the dummy’s line of sight.

...

It’s not just in the number 9 Safe Zone; all the official Safe Zones are undergoing similar training. Terror Devils are getting harder to beat, and they need to be prepared for the endgame.

Outside the disaster fog, the Hua Country military has evacuated the entire disaster fog area and surrounded it in a circle.

A large number of official players are assembled here, as well as some unofficial ones who are quietly watching from a distance.

The situation is not optimistic now.

Several World Destruction Level Catastrophes have appeared in the disaster fog, and although they are Terror Devils, they are not as powerful as their main bodies. Still, they are not easy to deal with.

In a conference room within the encirclement, the most influential official players and members of other major player organizations are gathered.

"The Dream Cruise is ready and the captain has been notified. She will send the fighters into the disaster fog and quickly bring them back to the ship within the time limit," an official player said.

"Notice the time, if the cumulative total exceeds one hour, they won’t be able to leave the disaster fog," said a tall, delicate-looking young man who was sitting in the leading position in the conference room.

"We are prepared for this," the previous official player nodded.

The nature of the disaster fog is that human individuals who accumulate more than an hour in the fog will be marked by the fog.

Similarly, as long as they do not exceed an hour, humans can freely enter the disaster fog.

The only trouble is that once they are dragged down by Terror Devils, they are likely to exceed the time limit, be marked by the disaster fog, and create corresponding Terror Devils.

Then the entering humans will not be able to leave the disaster fog.

It is with this tactic that the authorities forced the Dream Cruise to enter the disaster fog. They send the powerful fighters inside the fog and bring the passengers out of the disaster fog using the cruise ship’s forced pulling ability.

They can provide support, but only for an hour. That has to be when the situation is the most critical.

"Very well, I hope the plan succeeds," the young man tapped his fingertips on the table, making a crisp sound, "Let the players inside cooperate. If they can gather the strongest Terror Devils, it would be the best. It can effectively save time."

"It’s too difficult. Although there are many powerful players in the disaster fog, dealing with several powerful Terror Devils at the same time will be quite challenging. If not handled well, they could be wiped out," a player frowned.

"I know. But the intelligence of the Terror Devils is also increasing. Those long-surviving Terror Devils may already be starting to unite," the young man snorted, "Or rather, they have already united. Just like at this moment, like us, they unite for warmth to avoid being wiped out."

"So let’s cooperate one more time," a player in the room smiled lightly.

"Last time we worked together, it was on the Heavenly Palace Battlefield."

"Chen Tianjiao."
