"Mr. Lu's abilities have been witnessed by all, and I believe no one will question them further. Let's have Mr. Lu tell us about the advanced zombies," Sister Li said to Li Tong and the others.
Seeing this, Lu Heng said no more and got straight to the point.
"Your situation here is much better than in many other places. the original urban layout is very suitable for human survival in the early stages."
The people in the factory nodded in agreement, but no one interrupted Lu Heng.
"However, the battle between zombies and humans is far from over. What you see now is only due to the limitations of this area, so the zombie levels have not broken through much. But in other areas outside, many zombies have broken through. There are level nine or level ten zombies that organize other zombies to attack human bases."
"Then what should we do?"
"Level up, everyone level up quickly."
Lu Heng looked around at the people with a solemn expression. Those who could stand here were all confidants following these three sixth-tier individuals. Among them, there were even third-tier ability users, which showed that many people in their group had lower levels.
"This..."
"What? Is this already difficult? If you wait for a level nine zombie to command a horde of level five or higher zombies to attack here, you will only have death to look forward to."
"You should know the number of zombies. If humans do not unite and continue to operate independently, you are destined to lose, eventually becoming part of the zombie army or their food."
"My main purpose in coming out this time is to awaken you people. It's not acceptable to treat zombies with the same attitude as in the early days of the apocalypse. Humans cannot engage in infighting at this time; everyone should preserve human numbers to fight against the zombie army."
Those who were hit by Lu Heng's words lowered their heads. They did indeed have conflicts among humans at times to snatch resources, and sometimes these conflicts unintentionally killed fellow human ability users.
"Therefore, it's best to gather all survivors. Your existing factions are not meant to be eliminated; you can form a grand alliance. With more people in decision-making, there will be more ideas, and it won't lead to the entire team being wiped out due to individual stubbornness."
Lu Heng looked at the people listening intently, who had also fallen into deep thought.
This was still Wushi, and within an original province, there would definitely be more than just a few cities with survivors.
And these people, due to the severed long-distance communication, were isolated in one place. News from the outside couldn't get in, and they still thought that all regions were like their city.
Not only were these people scattered and their information channels blocked, but even worse, everyone had become complacent and lacked the pursuit of leveling up. As a result, once the zombies outside broke through, they would quickly be defeated by the zombies again.
A large part of Lu Heng's purpose in coming out was to spread the news to various regions and make these people more aware.
Although it wasn't necessary to gather all the survivors of a province in one stronghold, at least within a city, there shouldn't be separate gatherings anymore. Concentrating everyone would make major actions much more convenient.
"I agree to form a grand alliance, much like some foreign councils in the past. Brother Lu's suggestion is excellent," Li Tong said after some thought, being the first to agree with Lu Heng's idea.
"I agree too," Kuangtu Zhang San also nodded.
"Wucheng, since the three of us agree, I will find someone to notify the smaller organizations. As for future decisions within the grand alliance, we will still prioritize the subjective opinions of our three organizations. Other alliances will also have decision-making power, but their authority will be lower," Sister Li said, seeing that the leaders of the other two alliances had nodded in agreement.
"Yes, regardless of what happens with the other smaller organizations, as long as the three of us are united, I believe we can achieve what Brother Lu mentioned."
Becoming stronger was not something they were unwilling to do. It was just that in this survival mode of the apocalypse, they were always wary of some people, preventing anyone from surpassing them and then stepping on their position. This resulted in the crystals obtained from the outside being handed over to the organization, while it became somewhat difficult for those below to level up, only being able to rely on the mood of the organizers to promote those below.
"You don't need to worry. I can help all three of you advance to level eight. As for those below, even if they reach the sixth tier, they won't be able to surpass you."
"Eight, level eight? With what? Do you have high-level crystals on you?"
Li Tong was once again shocked. He had been unable to break through beyond the sixth tier. He had absorbed almost all the level four crystals obtained by the organization, but he still couldn't break through.
"Yes, have your subordinates retreat. I will help the three of you level up individually."
"All of you, get out."
"Big Brother!"
"Get out. If Brother Lu wanted to kill us, either of those two tigers could wipe us all out," Zhang San said, waving his hand at his subordinate who was still trying to say something.
Soon, only Sister Li, the other two, Lu Heng, and the two tigers remained in the spacious factory.
"Take this and absorb it."
Lu Heng took out demon crystals from his space, of course, all of them corresponding to the elemental attributes of the other party.
"What is this? And why does Sister Li have so much?" Zhang San asked, looking at the demon crystals Lu Heng placed in front of them.
"This is called a demon crystal, and this is the fortuitous encounter I encountered. As for how it was obtained, you don't need to know, and besides, besides me, no one else in this world has this item."
"As for why hers is twice as much as yours, it's because she's a dual-element ability user. This item is unlike crystals; it can only improve one attribute at a time."
"This item, this demon crystal, has attributes?"
Crystals also had attributes, but those items were not produced in large quantities; most of them were ordinary crystals that everyone could use. However, the energy contained in attribute crystals was higher than ordinary ones, which they did know.
"Let's begin," Lu Heng nodded, signaling them to start absorbing the demon crystals to increase their levels.
"This? Why is this item also prompting me about enlightenment level? What does enlightenment mean?"
"Don't worry about these details."
Lu Heng watched them. After they broke through to the seventh tier, he gave them some higher-level demon crystals.
"We're level seven, damn it, we really broke through. Hahaha..." Zhang San laughed wildly after leveling up to the seventh tier. After a long time without feeling the realm of another breakthrough, he had indeed been dispirited for a while.
"Hurry up, the others are still absorbing," Lu Heng said to Li Tong. The latter had also broken through to the seventh tier, and the satisfaction on his face, although not completely hidden, was not as frenzied as Zhang San's.
Zhang San glanced at the two beside him and silently picked up the demon crystals in front of him to continue absorbing.
