Chapter 1824 Slide into the Abyss


    The "high IQ" here does not mean that those degenerate players can think and fight like normal people, but that their combat instincts exceed ordinary mutant animals. They are not normal people and cannot give back to human words, so that they can avoid the influence of characteristics and props to a certain extent. The long-term life-and-death struggle in the game dungeon has enabled them to exercise the instinct of efficient fighting in critical moments. Therefore, when the country and the government are unprepared, a large number of players have been lost in Zone 010 because the players attacked by them have a certain chance of deteriorating.


    The toxins from mutant animals seem to be specifically targeted at players. In the case of direct contact, the antidote has no effect at all. In addition, the alien species degenerated by players are more organized and easier to obey orders than ordinary people. They quickly select a leader based on their instincts, and then cooperate with predation. Some of the group animals can do this, but the degenerate players seem to be more efficient, as if they have the wisdom of "human".


    This deterioration that broke out within the player caused a severe blow to Zone 010. It was at this time that some players gradually left their partitions and were able to turn the player into a beast-like virus in a very short time. Even the place where they live was not safe enough. In addition, the external environment was harsh, and the black thorn disease began to spread again, which made the players group think that they could not hold on to Zone 010, which was sliding into the abyss. For their own safety and for the safety of their families, some people began to stop losses.


    Once the player starts to retreat, the first defense line will basically be shaky. The alien populations that reproduced in unknown places have made a comeback and soon destroyed a large number of cities. The survivors in these cities have entered a new round of death and degeneration, so that the number of alien populations is growing more and more like snowballs. After years of tug-of-war and swallowing, it gradually becomes the current situation.


    What is sad is that the sharp decline in population in District 010 has become an important reason for the significant reduction in the number of alien populations. The lack of population means that there are no new alien species added and there is not enough food. Similar killing is also a way of consumption.


    Most of the local players who can still stay in Zone 010 are unable to give up their homeland.


    Chang Guanjun, from participating in the first battle against cannibal players in the outside world, to the first battle against alien populations, and later establishing a safe zone, killing degenerate companions, and constantly resisting alien populations. For more than 20 years, except for completing dungeons, he has basically been defending Zone 010 for other time.


    The experience of mobilizing players in this area to resist players in the outside area after the large numbered safety zones disappeared into scattered safety zones and small camps was just a small part of his turbulent life.


    The safe area in Shahai Center was also established by locals in District 010 at the beginning. Chang Shoujie even participated in the construction. After completion, he went to other places to help. Unexpectedly, after leaving for a while, he had fought side by side and vowed to leave the corpses of compatriots who made District 010 well. A group of cannibalists from other districts stole their results and used this as a stronghold to harm the people in District 010 unscrupulously!


    Now, Chang Shoujie still grits his teeth when he mentions this past that he can''t even understand.


    "The Shahai Safety Zone was originally built as the cornerstone of Zone 010. We also placed a lot of hot weapons in it at that time, with the purpose of receiving more survivors. Unexpectedly, the people we had worked hard to find became the reserve food for players in the outside area!"


    Hearing this, everyone present was full of hatred towards the players in the outside area. Fan Yunhong said, "Can''t you catch it back? That''s our territory!"


    Chang Shoujie did this a few years ago. He found other safe zones on the condition of sending out the hot weapons purchased from the Shahai Safety Zone and allowing players in the safe zone to participate. Unfortunately, he tried many times and failed repeatedly. Later, his purpose was not to rob the safe zone back, but to directly destroy the safe zone, destroy the comfortable habitat of players in the outside zone, and force them to leave Area 010.


    Similarly, this did not succeed.


    Because some dungeons were generated in such an environment, under the tug-of-war, more and more players did not complete the dungeons, and some of them gradually joined the cannibal player camp. Until a few years ago, Chang Shoujie, who had already developed symptoms of degeneration, became the most unpopular person in District 010. With his sad exit, no one seemed to mention this resistance against players in the outside area.


    "The environment in District 010 is not good. In the past few years, no player was willing to come here to make dungeons. Even if he wanted to find a place to retire, players would choose a place with a good environment and no shortage of food. Who would have thought that those cannibal players would not want to leave when they come?"


    Chang Shujie sighed, which was also his question.


    "In a place like District 010, even one can''t keep one''s own people, and someone will take the initiative to stay." "And it took me nearly ten years to successfully grab a place that belonged to District 010 from outsiders..."


    His voice was hoarse and seemed to be choked, but he soon calmed down again.


    "Bang!" Gao Dawei suddenly punched the table and shouted, "It''s so unfair!"


    "Why! Why do you work hard for District 010 and everyone will despise you in the end?"


    "This is unfair! This is unfair!"


    "Maybe the remaining part of the people in District 010 are no longer bloody." "It''s dark under the light" suddenly said.


    This sentence brought Gao Dawei''s glaring eyes.


    "Dawei." Chang Shoujie called him, "They are not despising me, but there is really nothing to sacrifice."


    "Without strength and no supplies, should we ruin the remaining people in District 010 in the Sand Sea Security Zone again and again?"


    "Calm down and accumulate strength may not be a way out."


    "But, but... how could they let you fall here?" Gao Dawei''s eyes turned red, "There are all people-eating players here!"


    Chang Shujie was no longer a player a few years ago, and he might even become a food here!


    "They are not as ruthless as you imagine." Chang Shoujie said calmly: "On the contrary, it is their efforts to be able to escape from the identity of a player, and Ao Quan also provided me with some protection."


    Gao Dawei was speechless, full of anger and had nowhere to vent, and finally he shouted and rushed out.


    "The child is still very naive and thinks that the world is either black or white." Chang Shoujie said as he looked at his back, then turned to look at Xu Huo, "I can leave at any time."


    Xu Huo refused to comment on the story he told, nodded slightly, and took out some food to let Fan Yunhong and the others make the meal.
