I Open Treasure Chests in the Apocalypse

When Earth becomes a battlefield and killing becomes the norm, everyone eagerly awaits their desired items from treasure chests dropped by monsters. But he, having opened so many treasure chests, h...

Chapter 33 The Bloodlust of the Second God

The word "God" is something that is high above everyone else; it is an unknown realm that humans cannot reach.

"A demigod-level bloodlust?" Jiang Yuan didn't notice the blood-red pattern that flashed across the corner of his eye, but it only appeared for a moment before disappearing into his skin. "Is this a cultivation technique or a skill?"

For him at present, great potential is not as important as what is useful now. The treasures that are useful now can help him accumulate capital quickly and gain an advantage, which is very important in the apocalypse.

But now he can no longer rely on the Heavenly Eye to identify bloodlust, so he can only accept his fate.

"Jiang Yuan, are you done yet?!"

Ning Yanlan's voice came through.

"Damn it!" Jiang Yuan kicked the golden box away and then walked towards Ning Yanlan and the others.

He no longer cared about bloodlust; he needed to join the fight, as the monster invasion was imminent.

"What did the core reveal?" Ning Yanlan kept condensing fireballs, and the fine beads of sweat on her forehead were enough to show the pressure she was under.

"I don't know!" Jiang Yuan shook his head, looking at the monsters surging closer, and asked in a deep voice, "How many monsters are there?"

"There are so many, I can't count them all!" Ning Yanlan's expression was weary, a result of the relentless battles.

"The Wind Frog, evolved from the Frog Spirit, is a Tier 1 common monster. Talent: None. Weakness: The whole body."

"The Green Wood Wolf, evolved from a wolf spirit, is a second-tier elite monster. Its talent is Bite, and its weakness is its waist."

...

"A Violent Boar evolved from a Wild Boar, a Tier 2 Lord Monster, with the talent: Charge, and its weakness: its abdomen!"

With just one glance, the Heavenly Eye relayed a wealth of information: the number of monsters in front of them was no less than twenty, including both first and second tiers, and even lord-level monsters among the second tier.

"Everyone!" Jiang Yuan's expression was extremely serious. "Escape is impossible now! But that doesn't mean we'll die!"

After saying that, Jiang Yuan glanced at Xu Feng and Xu Lian, and finally his gaze settled on Ning Yanlan. "This Holy Spirit Fortress will attract monsters from the surrounding area within three hours. As long as we can hold out for these three hours, we can save our lives!"

"It will be dawn in three hours, then the four of us will leave immediately!"

After Jiang Yuan finished speaking, he looked intently at the three of them, focusing his gaze on Xu Feng and Xu Lian, who were the uncertain factors here.

Xu Feng and Xu Lian exchanged a glance.

"We agree!" they both said simultaneously, followed by Xu Feng: "But you have to guarantee that both of us will survive!"

"I, Jiang Yuan, guarantee with my integrity that we will fight to the death together in this battle!" Jiang Yuan was filled with fighting spirit, and at this moment, the information from the Heavenly Eye entered his mind: "Bloodlust activated, current Bloodlust value is zero."

Jiang Yuan, his fighting spirit high, ignored this pointless remark. He needed to give Xu Feng and Xu Lian confidence, the confidence to survive.

"Okay, I believe you!" Xu Feng nodded, and Xu Lian also nodded slowly.

“Since we are a team, we need to cooperate! You two are strength-based. Xu Feng is good at defense, while Xu Lian has wolf-dog bloodline and has good speed and strength. However, you both have a big weakness: you can only fight in close combat!”

"You've all experienced the drawbacks of melee combat before. Once you're caught in a group of people or monsters, it's hard to turn the tide. So I hope you won't be reckless and will instead focus on fighting around Yanlan!"

"Yanlan is a psionic type, which can effectively control birds and assist your attacks, but her physical body is not as strong as the two of you, so you must protect her during the battle!"

"Remember, protecting her is protecting yourselves! You must understand that your strength is no match for the monster. If you get into a stalemate, you will all be devoured sooner or later!"

While the monster was still testing them, Jiang Yuan began to make arrangements, each sentence reflecting his analysis of the group and the monster.

"And what about you?" Xu Feng looked up and asked Jiang Yuan.

"I'll take care of killing those you can't handle, and any that slip through the net!" Jiang Yuan took a deep breath, then took out a ring, which was the spoils of war obtained from killing Sun Gaoyuan.

"This ring allows the four of us to communicate with each other using our thoughts, so no one has to worry about betrayal!" Jiang Yuan held the ring in his hand and weighed it a few times.

The Heavenly Eye had already identified the ring as a third-tier soul weapon, but since they lacked soul energy, they couldn't unleash its full power. However, the ring had another hidden function: it could sense each other's thoughts.
