Chapter 110 official version is now online.
Jiang Baiyue didn't waste any time waiting. She issued a notice to integrate resources, her mind racing to find out who else had what resources she could use.
Jiang Baiyue saw the message Jiang Yuan sent her.
"Lying-down Salty Fish: Rent your workbench to me. I need to arrange for someone to make a large number of energizing and mental potions. I can give you 20 energy crystals."
"Level 1 Disability: Take it! [Trade - Workbench]"
The protective shield in the sky became paler, and a large black bat seized a weak spot in the shield's repairs and rushed into the base.
The night-stalkers also seized the opportunity to squeeze in, and if they couldn't get in, they would stuff the little night-stalkers into the base.
The crowd was thrown into chaos for a moment, and some people picked up weapons to resist and fight back.
Bang bang bang—!
The patrol team players, who had stepped down to rest, fired their guns despite their fear.
The handsome guy heard a scream coming from behind him, turned around in horror, and saw a black bat scurrying around inside the protective shield, about to swoop down and bite a child.
Without hesitation, he used his unerring aim to hit the black bat squarely in the head.
The black bat paused, screamed, and unleashed a sonic attack just before its death.
Jiang Baiyue looked up and stared straight ahead.
The area outside the base was completely enveloped in black smoke. Players fighting outside hurriedly retreated back into the base, and then rushed up the city wall to help without stopping.
The black smoke does not harm the player, but it obstructs the player's vision and is not within the target range protected by the shield.
Jiang Baiyue looked at the private messages, which were scrolling by, almost all of them were requests for help or requests to buy resources.
Money jar, little stars, green hills and clear waters, yellow sand flying everywhere, vast land with few resources, phantom wolf...
Many unfamiliar players also found Jiang Baiyue, with each person sending several or even a dozen messages.
"Lie down, you lazy bum! I have a teleporter. I'll give you all the materials, you upgrade your base's shield, and I'll teleport all my people to your base?"
She paced back and forth anxiously, like throwing meat buns at a dog. At this critical moment, she didn't hesitate and sent a message directly to her target.
She resends the message every two seconds, just in case the other person has too many messages and misses it!
Jiang Baiyue paused, and before the message could reach the top, she clicked to quickly view it and immediately agreed to the "throwing meat buns to a dog" plan.
However, she asked the other side to send over the teleporter and upgrade materials first, otherwise she wouldn't be able to fully receive all the players on the other side.
After all, there are more than 4,000 people.
The guy who threw the meat bun to the dog turned back to the players in his base and the partner who gave him the idea: "I sent it. There aren't many of these..."
"At least we still have the chance to try and fail!"
"...If we bring in the other bases as well, I'm worried that even with all our materials, we won't have enough for the upgrade!"
Roubaozi Dagou's concerns were not unfounded. When Jiang Baiyue received the materials from Roubaozi Dagou, she realized that they were indeed a little short.
There is a shortage of 196 refined stones, 1034 deformed nuts, 59 anti-corrosion plastics, and 836 refined irons.
This is just the upgrade of materials; the repair of the protective shield is also underway. The materials are still being consumed before the upgrade, and there is still far from enough.
It's already 1 a.m., and there are still 10 hours left. Hang in there, and it should be over soon if nothing unexpected happens...
Will we even survive today?
A pair of bloodied hands climbed onto the worried woman's shoulders: "Still arguing with Old Chen? He abandoned his own father to protect you. His suffering and pain are no less than yours."
"..."
"It's the last moment, and we don't even know if we'll survive. Don't let yourself have too many regrets."
As the owner of the blood-hand spoke, he sniped at the spider monster that was trying to spit out its web. He kept rambling on and on, and his words became jumbled as he spoke quickly.
"Sigh, I was hoping to soak in the hot spring again. If I'm not unlucky this time, I might get a buff at the arcade and kill even more monsters..."
Several pills appeared in the woman's hand, which she shoved into the Bloodhand player's mouth, silencing her incoherent words.
Giving up her loved ones was a hurdle she couldn't overcome, but the living were equally important. Unable to let go of her inner conflict, she decided to die with Old Chen.
"Go find someone?"
"I heard he gained light-based superpowers, and he's really impressive. He's at the south side of arrow tower number 16 in the base."
Listen carefully, the woman left her friend's nagging behind and ran south without hesitation, covering the entire distance of the base.
"Old Chen—!"
A person on the city wall turned around and patted the man on the wall who was emitting a scorching beam of light.
"Old Chen, someone's calling you."
"Old Chen, Old Chen, your wife is calling you."
Old Chen, formerly known as Wang Ze, hadn't yet adapted to his new identity and only realized it after being slapped hard from behind.
"What?"
"Your wife is calling you. Stop arguing, it's this late... I guess I still haven't found a girlfriend."
The player, who was in a low mood, saw that Old Chen was in a daze. He had also heard Old Chen confide in him before and felt that Old Chen was still not in a good mood. He kindly responded to the woman's call and led her to the city wall.
"Old Chen...?"
The woman slowed her pace and quietly opened her game panel.
It's been too long since I messaged Lao Chen.
Wang Ze had been single for a long time and had only been using his talent to impersonate someone else for two or three days when this unexpected incident occurred.
He forced a smile, trying his best to play the role of a husband who had made up after an argument.
"Um... let's leave it all behind, now... pfft!"
What are you doing!
"Old Chen was trying to save you, how could you..."
The person next to him looked bewildered, his face and body splattered with blood.
Old Chen's light-based superpower is extremely effective against spider monsters!
"Quickly, take the healing potion! Take it now! Pull this crazy woman away!"
"Damn it! If you can't help, don't be a burden!"
"Ah! You madman, we're out of blood pressure medication. Tie her up and throw her down."
The woman broke free from the player who was trying to restrain her and shouted, "He's not Old Chen! Who are you! Old Chen is dead, did you kill him?!"
The woman's face was fierce. Taking advantage of the stunned silence of those around her, she pulled out a dagger, rushed forward, pushed aside the players blocking Lao Chen, and swiftly stabbed him more than a dozen times.
Wang Ze cursed loudly, raising his trembling hand, where beams of light gathered.
The scorching heat quickly rose around them, and the others tried to stop it.
The beam shot out in less than the blink of an eye, killing the woman instantly and leaving her belongings scattered on the ground.
Wang Ze breathed a sigh of relief and was about to call for someone to give him medicine when an axe chopped off his head.
Wherever the beam of light touched, a group of players fell. Many were caught off guard and attacked by their own teammates, disappearing instantly.
The base was in chaos. After integrating the resources of 7 or 8 bases, Jiang Baiyue quickly upgraded the protective shield and announced good news to the base residents, telling them to hold on until the protective shield was upgraded.
She scattered the teleporters and sent players over one after another.
The players didn't say much, and the scene wasn't chaotic or noisy. Everyone ran towards the surrounding city walls without stopping.
This is the last chance; if we can hold on, we can survive.
Lin Chi stood next to the teleporter and shouted, "If you don't have enough weapons, come to me for more, and I also have bullets!"
Xia Ningwei and the other NPCs also helped distribute supplies.
Gu Yunxiao and other NPCs who arrived at the White Moon Base via the teleporter should also quickly set up stalls to distribute weapons and medicines for free.
"Need medicine? Come and get some, come and get some! Search my friend's nickname to claim your supplies!"
After Jiang Baiyue placed the teleporter, she collected the remaining supplies sent by the other base leaders and immediately upgraded the base.
Yin Kela finally completed the copying of the artificial sun blueprints, and Jiang Baiyue immediately put it on her workbench to begin production.
04:00.
An artificial sun rises from the ground and slowly hangs in the sky above the base.
The listless plants, nurtured and encouraged by Xia Wenjing, were revitalized, blossoming and bearing fruit.
The monsters inside and outside the base were uncomfortable under the light, and the players could clearly feel that the monsters were being suppressed, especially the menacing night monsters that quickly shrank into the darkness.
"bright?!!"
"Haha, okay, you can take a break now."
"I'm so tired, so tired..."
The players' morale soared, and the monsters retreated in defeat.
Players kept climbing the city walls, and the original players at the White Moon Base suddenly found that many more people were taking over their shifts, which made them feel both relaxed and strange.
Soon after they descended the city wall, they discovered that players from other bases had arrived at the White Moon base via teleportation devices, which gave them an extra layer of confidence.
"The base is being upgraded—!"
"Hahaha! The base has been upgraded! Keep it up, everyone! Hang in there!"
Some players who were initially confused and were feeling hopeless after discovering new monsters like the Human-faced Monkey and the Demon-faced Moth suddenly found their bases being upgraded, causing their mood to plummet and then soar!
Day 51 of survival, 12:00:00 at night, temperature 13°C～20°C, zone 301, number of survivors 50232/100000.
The protective shield upgrade is complete!
The base upgrade is complete, and the city walls have become higher and thicker.
All the players stopped, put away their weapons, and excitedly hugged their friends and family.
Under the sunlight, the darkness kept retreating.
The familiar mechanical sound echoed in the minds of all players.
[Congratulations to the player in Area 301 for completing the demo version of "Hunger Apocalypse"!]
[Congratulations to the survivor "Lying Down and Playing Lazy" for defeating the anomaly and obtaining an SSS-level resource box*1 and a Base Administrator ID card*1.]
Before Jiang Baiyue could examine the contents of the notification in detail, her vision suddenly blurred, and the sounds of the wind, weeping, and surprise around her were pulled away and became almost whispers.
She blinked, and the Gaussian-blurred environment transformed into... a familiar street scene from a distant memory!
The streets were bustling with traffic and people; some were playfully joking, some were whispering sweet nothings to each other, and some were making sales pitches...
This is?
Jiang Baiyue turned around and saw the neon signs for "Breaking Boundaries Players Internet Cafe". Feeling inexplicably, she took out her phone from her pocket and logged into the game's official account.
Night Walk Studio:
The official version of "Hunger Apocalypse" will be officially launched on January 17th. This official version will support multiple languages and will be launched simultaneously for players across all platforms.
