Lord of Illusions City
Chapter 378 The Temptation of Potions
After James finished speaking, the people below looked at each other.
Now, more than a month has passed since the apocalypse descended. Those who have survived until now are definitely not the kind of people who like to sacrifice themselves for others. They were almost all eliminated in the first week.
Therefore, even though many of the people below were soldiers under James' command, no one responded immediately.
Looking at the silent crowd, James also remained silent, because this was almost like sending people to their deaths, and he couldn't designate anyone!
At this time, standing behind James, besides Li Chenzhou, were Gray Bear, Mike, George, and Lucas. The five of them had already decided to go to the central urban area.
Gray Bear naturally didn't need to be said. Wherever Li Chenzhou went, he would definitely go. And after receiving Li Chenzhou's evolution potion, Mike, George, and Lucas had made up their minds to follow Li Chenzhou regardless of life or death, so all three of them were there, but they didn't speak!
"Everyone! Going to the central urban area is likely to be a near-death experience, so it's normal for you to hesitate!"
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit cold, Li Chenzhou took the loudspeaker from James and threw his own loudspeaker to Lucas, asking him to help him translate. Then, he spoke to the people below:
"However, you should all know how terrifying the zombie hordes in the city are. Even if we leave the city now and stay far away from them, who can guarantee that they will always hide in the city? Who can guarantee that this small town will definitely be safe?
I can say for sure that as long as we don't kill all the zombies, no matter where we hide, we will always be worried, fearing that one day, their figures will appear in our sight!
Therefore, I am going to the central urban area, not only for those who are trapped in the city, but also for ourselves. I want to find a way to kill the zombies!"
As he spoke, Li Chenzhou raised his other hand, showing an evolution potion to the survivors below. Although most of the survivors here came from other bases, they had all heard about the magic of the evolution potion, but they had never seen it with their own eyes.
Seeing this potion, many people's eyes shot out greed, their breathing became heavy, and there was even some commotion in the crowd, but no one really stepped forward.
They all knew how powerful Li Chenzhou and his group were, even if they hadn't seen it themselves, they had heard of it. What's more, James was here!
"You should all know what this is! Evolution potion! As long as you use this, an ordinary person can become an ability user with 100% certainty!"
Seeing the reaction of the crowd below, Li Chenzhou's lips curled into a smile, and he continued:
"Gray Bear and I used this. In addition, James, Mike, George, and Lucas next to me have all used this. You have already seen the effect.
James was only Level 2 before, and Mike and George were Level 1, and Lucas was only Level 1, and a strengthener at that, but what about now? James and Mike are both Level 3 ability users, and the other three are also Level 2 ability users.
In this world, what one's own strength represents, I don't need to explain it, right?"
After speaking, Li Chenzhou continued to hold up the potion. After Lucas finished translating, he said again:
"Now, we need to choose members for a suicide squad. For everyone who signs up, I will immediately give them an evolution potion as the price for your adventure. So, now you can think carefully about whether you want to hide here, living in a daze, relying on the protection of others, or take a gamble to improve your own strength and become a protector. The choice is yours!"
"I'll sign up!"
This time, before Lucas could finish translating, there was already a buzzing sound below. And the moment Lucas's voice fell, a person immediately raised his arm, it was Tony!
"Me too!"
"I'm going too! Damn it, I'll risk it!"
"Take me with you! I'm a man, I don't want to be protected by others for the rest of my life!"
"Me! I'm going too!"
"I…"
In an instant, the people below were boiling, more than half of them were raising their arms, shouting loudly. They didn't want to die for no reason, but now, as long as they signed up, they could get an evolution potion, why wouldn't they want it?
Looking at the crowd below, Li Chenzhou picked up the loudspeaker again and said to the crowd:
"Please think carefully. I definitely have enough evolution potions, but if anyone wants to cheat, using various excuses to refuse to go after using the potion, then don't blame me for being impolite, I will take back the potion!"
"The potion can be taken back?"
After Lucas translated, the people below immediately quieted down for a moment, and then, a bearded man asked loudly.
"He's asking if the potion can be taken back?"
Gray Bear leaned close to Li Chenzhou's ear and translated.
"Of course the potion can't be taken back, but I can cancel its effect. As for the method…"
After hearing this, Li Chenzhou picked up the loudspeaker and looked at the bearded man with cold eyes:
"It's very simple, just kill the person! What do you think of my method? James?"
After speaking, Li Chenzhou turned his head and asked James.
This time, Gray Bear took the initiative to take the loudspeaker from Lucas and translated Li Chenzhou's words to the people below, and then also looked at James.
"This method is quite good. For people without a sense of contract, no matter how we punish them, we are not wrong, especially in this world!"
James did not hesitate at all, took the loudspeaker and said to the people below:
"So, please remember, as long as you sign up and are selected, and you have used the evolution potion, you must completely obey Li's orders. If anyone wants to use the fact that they are Easterners to instigate others to make trouble, I will personally twist his head off and put it next to the road!!!"
Seeing that James supported Li Chenzhou so much, the people below immediately quieted down. There were indeed many of them who had ulterior motives, and several of them had even gathered together to discuss.
They planned to sign up first, and after getting the evolution potion, they would use their lack of strength as an excuse to ask Li Chenzhou for more evolution potions. If Li Chenzhou gave them, then they would of course accept it without hesitation. If he didn't give it to them, then they would refuse to enter the city for this reason.
In their opinion, Li Chenzhou was an Easterner, so as long as they united, Li Chenzhou would definitely not dare to kill them. Foreigners running to our country to kill people? As long as they instigated it, others would definitely respond. At that time, maybe they could even control Li Chenzhou and make him take out all the evolution potions…
