Chapter 269

“Chief Li! Are you… are you telling the truth?”

The images had finished playing, but silence still reigned on the rooftop. After a long while, Li Qingfeng, the one from before, finally spoke.

“You’ll know when I go to hunt down that Devourer!”

Li Chenzhou said:

“Besides, this war fortress, do you think it’s something our world could possess? And those weapons of the Devourer, have you ever seen weapons like that before?

The appearance of zombies is due to genetic mutation, which we might accept. But no matter how genes mutate, they can’t produce beam weapons, right? Also, if we want to stop the Devourer from invading our world, we need to enter the Duoluo world to fight. Then, you will naturally enter the world you just saw.

However, due to the world level, those who enter the Duoluo world cannot return to our world in a short period of time, unless… we win the war completely, or… the Devourer invades our home!”

“But if that’s the case, we who stay here still won’t know if what you’re saying is true, will we?”

Another leader asked.

“That’s simple, you can go to the Duoluo world together to see!”

Li Chenzhou replied:

“Only those who have improved their level after arriving in the Duoluo world cannot return. So, we can send two batches of people. One batch will voluntarily stay in the Duoluo world to fight the Devourer, and the other batch will go to verify. As long as the verifiers don’t improve their level, they can come back anytime!”

Hearing Li Chenzhou’s words, everyone fell silent. In fact, after seeing the images and hearing everything Li Chenzhou said, these people already knew that Li Chenzhou was not lying to them.

But they subconsciously didn’t want to accept it, because the facts Li Chenzhou stated were even more despairing than this apocalypse. That’s why someone asked that question, clinging to a glimmer of hope.

“Everyone, don’t harbor any illusions. We must now face the powerful enemy, the Devourer. They have turned countless human worlds into their own pastures, and we only have two paths before us. One is to become one of their food sources, like the Duoluo world and countless other worlds enslaved by the Devourer.

And the other is to fight them to the death! Either we destroy the Devourer, or our world will be completely destroyed by the Devourer!!!”

After speaking, Li Chenzhou looked at all the leaders present:

“Now, you also have two choices. One is to join us and fight against the Devourer with us, and the other is to choose to protect yourselves and return to your bases to continue your current lives.

How you choose now is your freedom. I will never force anyone, but I need to state in advance that if you choose to retreat, then you will never be accepted by us again in the future.

The opportunity only comes once, just like those survivors in the abandoned chemical plant bases. We gave them the opportunity to enter here, and they gave it up. So, they have given it up forever.

It’s the same for you. If you don’t join now, we will not accept you when the Devourer arrives in the future. If you want to survive, you can only rely on yourselves! I’ll give you one day to consider.

You can leave at any time now. At this time tomorrow, those who want to join us can bring the survivors from your bases here again. You can all enter here. After tomorrow, no survivors in Qing City will be accepted!”

After speaking, Li Chenzhou thought for a while and added:

“By the way, I said before that in the center of Qing City, there may be a space channel leading to the Devourer’s territory. After receiving all the survivors tomorrow, we will go to destroy that Devourer.

At that time, reinforcements from the Devourer may appear in the space channel. So, those bases that choose not to join us and protect themselves, please be prepared for defense, because the Devourer may attack the bases around the city!”

“Then why don’t you just not provoke him?”

A base leader shouted.

“Not provoke him? This is our world. The Devourer dragged our world into the apocalypse and wants to raise us like pigs and sheep. And you’re saying I’m provoking him?”

Li Chenzhou looked at the leader:

“If someone runs into your house, lies on your bed, and holds your wife, would you hide in another room and not provoke him?”

Hearing this, the leader closed his mouth, while the other leaders asked some questions about the small world, such as how the residences would be allocated after they moved in.

Hong Li answered these questions one by one, while Li Chenzhou looked at the small world, thinking about things.

Before going to bed last night, Li Chenzhou had already made a decision, and that was to fight!!!

He had to fight this Devourer in the center of Qing City, even if there was a space channel and reinforcements would appear.

One reason was that Li Chenzhou had to confirm the world level, and the other was that Li Chenzhou suddenly thought that if there really was a Devourer’s space channel here, then, no matter what, a large number of Devourers would appear here in the future.

If that was the case, then this space channel in the center of Qing City would be like a time bomb. It would be better to detonate it earlier, confirm the space channel, and let the Devourers appear earlier, because even if the world level increased with the gray bear’s improvement, it would only be level five!

In other words, the highest level of Devourers entering here would be level five.

In terms of ability users, Li Chenzhou and his people were indeed at a disadvantage, because now, apart from Li Chenzhou’s people, no one else in the entire world should have reached level three.

But they had a war fortress!

The war fortress was not restricted by the world level, and for the war fortress, the lower the level of the enemy, the better. So, Li Chenzhou was determined to fight!

If he really drew out Devourer reinforcements, then he would take advantage of the fact that his world level had not yet been raised to the highest level and brutally kill a batch of Devourers!

At that time, Li Chenzhou could first call in a batch of survivors from Luo Hong’s base and let them enter the fortress to familiarize themselves and act as soldiers. He would use this war fortress to contain the Devourer reinforcements first.

After that, he would mobilize Duan Lei and others, and bring all the war fortresses over to surround here, fighting the Devourer while cultivating his own soldiers.

Moreover, after seeing the Devourer with their own eyes, it was believed that those survivors would no longer have any illusions and could only fight the Devourer desperately. This would also speed up Li Chenzhou’s plan!

Of course, if that was the case, it would affect Li Chenzhou’s plan to advance into the Duoluo world, but now he could only take it one step at a time…
