My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!
Chapter 409 - Baptism! All the Darkness Ends withChapter 409: Baptism! All the Darkness Ends with Me
How big was the Wasteland World?
How far were they from earth?
Coming from a modern civilized society to this Wasteland World, these two questions had been asked more than once in the World Channel, which had set off waves of discussions.
If not for the chat box provided by the game, it might have taken the humans twenty, thirty, or even fifty years to restore modern communication in the wasteland.
The network had shortened the sense of distance between the people in the area.
However, at the same time, the other traits of the network had catalyzed certain evil desires in the hearts of humans.
In the game’s chat box, people were being deceived, taken advantage of, and trolled.
There were aggressors that threatened to ‘track you down and kill you’ and victims that yelled back ‘you’re going to be so screwed if I catch you!’
Even though they were in the environment of the wasteland, everyone took it as a joke.
However, as for Ying Tianlong… he could not laugh about it!
He had never told anyone that just two months ago, he and the human’s ‘Almighty Su’ had had a video call with him. During the call, the other party had threatened to “find” him.
Ying Tianlong had also kept this hidden from the people of the Ying clan that were following him.
Who would have thought that just two months ago, he had just been a lucky ‘ordinary person’? Now, he could rise as fast as a meteor and pierce through the night sky!
Who else would have thought about how much mental endurance would be needed to resist the anxiety that came from being targeted by someone like that?
Ying Tianlong was just an ordinary person, a little person. He was not special in any way.
Apart from his lack of morals, he was no different than tyrants in the civilized era whom relied on big clans and oppressed the villagers.
Therefore, after he thought about it clearly, he knew that the moment the Almighty Su gave the order, his reputation would be destroyed in the human community. Ying Tianlong naturally chose the only path he could take in advance. . .
Taking refuge in foreign clans!
However, as he sat on the ground and listened to the shouting of thanks everywhere, he felt regret!
Rewind the time to twenty-one minutes ago.
Things went silent after Ying Tianlong asked Lu Yongyi to exchange the Tundra One once he saw through the crowd’s tactic to stall time.
According to the plan ordered by Lu Yongyi, not only had the current time been delayed to the expected point, but it had even exceeded it slightly.
If this state could be maintained, the fleet would have an unprecedented victory!
As long as the reinforcements arrived, these foreign clans and traitors would all be wiped out.
However, unexpected things could always happen.
The timing of Ying Tianlong’s attack was too coincidental!
“There’s no point in persuading me otherwise! It’s too late for that right now. I’m going!
“We have to continue to stall for every minute possible. We must ensure the safety of all the hostages!”
Without thinking about it, Lu Yongyi smiled as he stood up and raised his right fist.
The next moment, there was an uproar within the crowd.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEven though they had expected Lu Yongyi to make such a choice when they saw the news, they could not stop trembling when he actually made the decision.
“Shelter Leader Lu… no! There’s bound to be sacrifices in war, but without you, we people won’t be able to make it very far!”
“Yeah, Shelter Leader Lu, it’s better for us to rise and resist a brute like Ying Tianlong!”
“If you leave and something goes wrong with the reinforcements, if they don’t get here in time, wouldn’t that then be equivalent to killing hundreds of thousands of people for the sake of a few thousand people?”
“Shelter Leader Lu…”
There was not a single person who agreed that Lu Yongyi should take the Tundra One to his death!
On the deck, all the captains argued with one another in unison.
Two hundred and forty thousand people had died in the Tundra fleet.
This number was twenty times the number of hostages on the opposite side!
To allow these people to be sacrificed in vain and to allow the remaining hundreds of thousands of people to lose their pillar of support for these hostages, it was…
Unwise!
Both sides had not fought up to the point of no return, so to hand over their biggest advantage and send away their tied-up top general to the other side was…
Not valiant!
At this moment, with such an unwise and cowardly manner, everyone had racked their brains to find a way to ‘morally kidnap’ Lu Yongyi.
However, just like before, Lu Yongyi did not stop anyone from arguing this time. He instead looked at the end of the sea with a smile on his face.
He spread his hands on the railing of Tundra One. As he smelt the ocean breeze mingled with the scent of bloodshed, he laughed.
“Sigh… I’m getting old, hahaha! I thought I could bear this pressure by myself. I didn’t expect that I would almost break.
“Our reinforcements won’t be late, and none of us will have to die.
“Oh, right, haven’t you guys been wondering about who our reinforcements are?
“He’s…”
Lu Yongyi mouthed the name, not saying it out loud.
For the humans living in the wasteland, the name he mouthed was far more familiar than the name of the shelter they were currently in.
“Rely on… Su?”
“How’s that possible? Our reinforcements, how could they be…”
“Holy sh*t, is Shelter Leader Lu serious? F*ck, sh*t, f*ck!”
Lu Yongyi nodded slightly as he saw the faces of disbelief that the captains and sailors below him had on.
The support from the Almighty Su was a powerful medicine, and in critical moments, it would bring about a rush of adrenaline!
However, if exposed to the enemy or traitors too soon, it might cause a disaster.
If it explodes at the right time, it can get results that are over 150%, 200%, or more effective!
However, now, with only half an hour left to turn the clock, Lu Yongyi felt that. . .
The opportunity that he had been waiting for had arrived!
There was so much darkness in this world that it made people forget that there was still light!
The brute of the wasteland was so aggressive that not even a single person was capable of stopping him!
This world should not be like this!
The time for the world to change was coming!
After confirming that the Almighty Su was the reinforcement, none of the captains dared to oppose him this time, nor did anyone question Lu Yongyi’s decision.
For the raft warriors below, they knew that the fleet’s reinforcements were coming soon but were not aware that it was the Almighty Su.
However, this did not hinder the acting skills rooted in everyone’s genes!
In no time, hundreds of thousands of people participated in this big show. Some hostages even joined in too.
A message popped up on the Regional Channel, and they thanked it with the utmost sincerity!
[Congratulations to the players in the 6732 channel’s region. Your Regional Channel has been entered by the No. 1 player with the double nameplate holder!]
[Please welcome the respected ‘King of the Acid Rain’, ‘Emperor of the Blizzard’… Su Mo into this Regional Channel.]
[It has been detected that a powerful player has entered this Regional Channel. The entry effect has automatically been triggered (Cooldown: 10 days)]
[Congratulations to all players in this Regional Channel, you will automatically receive some additional attributes: 100% energy recovery speed*12H]
[Congratulations to all players in this Regional Channel, you will automatically receive some additional points: 100 Disaster Points]
Along the way, Su Mo had been afraid of revealing his location, so he had never once entered the Regional Channel.
In other words, other than the channels near the basin, this was the first time that Su Mo had entered the updated Regional Channel after the ocean hit.
He did not say anything.
But this dramatic entrance… was enough!
When he appeared in the wasteland, his name only meant one thing…
‘All the darkness ends with me!’
“Ying Tianlong, you can’t escape. Once the Almighty Su arrives, there will be no place for traitors like you to hide in the wasteland. You’re dead for sure!”
“As for the people who follow you, as long as you’re willing to let them rescue the hostages, I can promise you that they will be allowed to live.”
“Decide for yourself!”
Cut them some slack?
As Ying Tianlong fell helplessly to the ground, a crew member quickly ran down from Tundra One and spread Lu Yongyi’s words throughout the crowd.
It was not that Lu Yongyi was not capable of using dirty tricks. In many cases, he just was unwilling to pull them out.
As things unraveled, the over three hundred people that were following Ying Tianlong reacted without hesitation and rushed toward him.
Lu Yongyi’s words opened up new possibilities for them and showed them what they needed to do to survive!
“Boss, the Almighty Su is here! Why don’t you retreat for now? Staying would cause more trouble!”
“Cousin, you asked us to do these things in the first place. Now that the Almighty Su is here, if he’s to investigate…”
“Tianlong, you should hurry. The Almighty Su is here… We’ve committed crimes that can be forgiven with punishment, but you…”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Brother Ying, why don’t you make some sacrifices…”
Their words were only exacerbating his already pitiful state, rubbing salt into his wounds. It was every man for himself, so those that wanted to flee had fled, and those that wanted to leave to join the Almighty Su had left.
The three hundred warriors that were still following Ying Tianlong were not surprised by his current state!
Once upon a time, Su Mo had bluntly said that all traitors would be killed.
As their leader, no matter what Ying Tianlong did now, there was no escaping death.
On the other hand, if he were to die now, before the Almighty Su arrived, he could give the people who followed him a reason. A reason for why they were led astray.
In the heat of the moment, the people in front of him that had once been his allies, Brother Ying on the left and the cousins on the right, exposed their true colors. Ying Tianlong staggered as he tried to stand up. Ultimately, he fell down again.
“Tianlong, make up your mind quickly before the foreign races notice!”
“If they find out, we’ll have nowhere to run!”
In the crowd, four young people immediately rushed forward and ‘helped’ Ying Tianlong as two middle-aged men shot them a look.
There were two on his left and two on his right as he was dragged up from the ground like a rag doll.
Lu Yongyi had wanted them to rescue all the hostages as proof of allegiance, but it had been too difficult as there had only been three hundred of them.
Thus, they opted for the easier route of proof of allegiance…
Ying Tianlong!
“Heh… cough, you really think that just because you have me captured, that Su Mo kid is going to let you go?
“You have no idea what kind of person he truly is!
“He’s a hypocrite, a tyrant, and he has no ounce of mercy! He kills people like flies, and he doesn’t care about the lives of people like you!
“Besides… he’s already here! Where else can you run?”
He was furious.
Ying Tianlong’s face was as white as paper, and he coughed up a small mouthful of bloody phlegm. He looked as if he had aged ten years in an instant.
Being held down by four young men, he did not choose to escape nor resist.
In front of everyone, he weakly pointed to the sky that was a little brighter than before and raised his head, an unreadable look in his eyes. He seemed to be sighing and groaning as if he was anticipating something.
The direction he was looking in was a very strange one. It was neither the direction of the fleet nor the direction of the base camp of the foreign races.
However, at that moment. . .
The direction he was looking in seemed to be magical…
At the bow of Tundra One, Lu Yongyi was excited. Tears welled up in his eyes as he stared out into the distance.
Hundreds of thousands of survivors on the Tundra Fleet spontaneously knelt down on the deck.
More and more foreign races appeared in the direction they were kneeling towards, and loud shouts could be heard from that direction.
The ‘warriors’ who wanted to use him as proof of allegiance collapsed onto the ground just like those on the Tundra Fleet.
In everyone’s line of sight, as it got closer to the time the clock would tick over, the sky suddenly lit up.
In the distant horizon, twelve luminous empennages appeared like twelve Halley’s Comets!
The foreign races might not have known what it was…
However, the humans knew.
The survivors knew that this was justice, justice that would sweep away the darkness!
Ying Tianlong knew that this was a baptism, a baptism by fire that would burn all the filth of the
