At this moment, Long Lin held a military-grade communication device in his hand.

In reality, after the game's invasion, although the internet on Blue Star was damaged almost immediately, many signal towers remained standing. They were slowly destroyed by monsters. Additionally, the expanded Blue Star increased the distances between regions, gradually rendering mobile phones ineffective.

However, the military's communication devices remained quite resilient.

Long Lin reported a message to Lin Chen...

The military headquarters had also been attacked by monsters!

Currently, every country on Blue Star was facing the same situation.

It could be said that everything was completely paralyzed!

Upon hearing this news, Liu Mengyao became very worried. She said to Lin Chen, "Could my grandfather be in danger too? We can't contact him now."

"Your grandfather is?" Long Lin asked.

"Liu Quan!"

"He's General Liu!"

Upon hearing this, Long Lin immediately saluted Liu Mengyao again and said, "City Lord, I would like to lead the soldiers to search for and rescue General Liu and the others!"

"Given the situation outside, going out now would likely mean facing more dangers than successes."

Lin Chen hesitated slightly and said, "I will definitely go look for Mengyao's grandfather, but if you are determined to go, I won't stop you... Of course, the same goes for everyone else, you are free to leave if you wish!"

Lin Chen was addressing everyone who had come to Tianyue City with his last words.

Freedom to come and go.

Lin Chen didn't want to accept just anyone.

He bought Tianyue City because he foresaw this situation and planned to build a human base on Blue Star.

However, that didn't mean Lin Chen would accept everyone.

"While staying in Tianyue City is safe, you must obey the city lord's arrangements. Also, Zhang Chunlin will be the deputy city lord of Tianyue City from now on... I heard about Ye Tenglong's matter, and now I'm telling everyone that I support Zhang Chunlin's actions! The world has changed drastically; it's not what it used to be. If you want to survive but don't want to obey and still want freedom, you can leave now."

The meaning behind Lin Chen's words was clear.

If anyone was dissatisfied, they could leave.

He wouldn't stop them.

Compared to others, Zhang Chunlin was actually more suitable for handling these people.

So Lin Chen simply made him a deputy city lord and let him decide who would stay and who could stay.

The affairs of Tianyue City were temporarily entrusted to him.

Lin Chen had the three major Tianyue Legions assist Zhang Chunlin.

Then, he would go rescue Liu Mengyao's grandfather,

Liu Quan.

However, Lin Chen wasn't sure what the outside world was like now. Furthermore, Lin Chen's phone had a message from Bai Shuyi... It was sent an hour ago.

Bai Shuyi said that zombies had appeared in Mordu!

Xue Mo had also sent a message.

She said that there were undead appearing where she was... However, Xue Mo made it clear that she had found the people controlling the undead. It was a necromancer, originally one of the level 110 bosses in the game.

After killing many people, this necromancer turned the dead into undead and occupied a territory.

It could be said that the outside world was already very dangerous.

Especially zombies; the main threat of such things was that they were highly contagious.

Although Bai Shuyi didn't say how the zombies appeared, Lin Chen guessed that the boss Corpse Worm King from the game was responsible. This guy's strength in the game was that of a level 70 boss.

Not very powerful.

However, it could create zombies, which made it very powerful in reality.

So Lin Chen found Kong Yan and Kong Lin and said to them, "Seniors, I would like to ask you to take action once more and help rescue the grandfather of you Shennian practitioners... After it's done, I can promise to give you a territory, and the Trial Tower of Tianyue City can also be used by the Holy Maiden Clan in the future. What do you think?"

Letting Kong Yan bring Liu Mengyao's family over, Kong Yan went without saying a word.

However, after hearing about Liu Mengyao's grandfather's matter, Kong Yan didn't say a word, which meant that only Liu Mengyao was important in her heart.

She probably didn't want to take action for the others.

So this time, Lin Chen spoke in a negotiating tone.

Furthermore, he also promised Kong Yan some conditions.

Kong Yan and Kong Lin discussed it and finally chose to agree.

Lin Chen said to Liu Mengyao, "Let the two seniors take you to find your grandfather. I have to rush to Mordu... Tianyue City is located between Mordu and Longhai City. Now that the Corpse Worm King has appeared in Mordu and can create zombie viruses, we must eliminate the Corpse Worm King! Otherwise, Tianyue City may be contaminated."

"Okay, then we'll split up." When Liu Mengyao heard that zombies had appeared, she immediately knew that things had become serious.

What's more, the location of Tianyue City was actually not far from Mordu.

This made it even more necessary to eliminate the Corpse Worm King!

However, Lin Chen was very clear.

There was definitely more than just one Corpse Worm King.

It may have appeared in other countries as well.

Undead, zombies...

Once these things appeared, it would be a disaster within a disaster for the humans on Blue Star.

A strong aura of the apocalypse enveloped all of humanity on Blue Star.

Lin Chen couldn't care about other places right now.

However, Lin Chen had to take care of the area around Tianyue City.

Mordu.

This used to be the most prosperous city in Dragon Country.

Tall buildings stood in rows.

But now, the buildings had collapsed.

The entire city was shrouded in panic.

The streets were full of people.

But if you looked closer, these people were very terrifying.

Their eyes were dull and white.

When they moved, they were like zombies.

Those who were familiar with some science fiction movies knew that these people were no longer human.

They had a name: zombies!

In addition, as a coastal city connected to the Pacific Ocean, many Boss monsters had come here.

If it weren't for the fact that there were some islands and cities of other countries to the east of Mordu as a barrier, there would probably be even more monsters here.

Of course, as the most prosperous city, there were actually quite a few players in Mordu who retained their in-game abilities.

Bai Shuyi wasn't fighting alone.

Right now, she was teaming up with a group of people to deal with a level 120 Boss!

However, the level and strength of these few people were only around level 110.

In Bai Shuyi's eyes, they weren't very strong.

But Bai Shuyi wasn't confident in dealing with a level 120 Boss alone.

This wasn't a game, but reality.

If they failed, people would die.

Having teammates was more reliable.

These few people were all men.

Bai Shuyi also asked for their names, which were Du Li, Wang Jing, and Chen Ye.

Their names felt a little strange.

However, Bai Shuyi didn't think much about it.

At this time, humans must be united!

Habitual thinking determined that Bai Shuyi chose to trust her teammates.

But what Bai Shuyi didn't expect was that after the team had reduced the Boss's health to just a sliver and the Boss had entered a severely injured state, these three people suddenly joined forces and attacked her.

Bang!

At this time, Bai Shuyi also only had a sliver of health left.

Even though she was a Valkyrie.

But there was nothing she could do!

At the most critical moment, she planned to withstand the Boss's attack, but the three treacherous teammates attacked from behind... Bai Shuyi was caught off guard and entered a severely injured state.

She fell from the building to the ground.

For a moment, it felt difficult to even get up.

At this time, Du Li said with a smile, "Haha, we've made a fortune this time! Not only did we kill this level 120 Boss, but we also caught a beautiful chick. Even this chick's equipment is ours!"

"Leave the Boss to you guys. I'm going to have some fun this afternoon!"

As Wang Jing spoke, he was about to jump off the tall building.

"Be careful of her dog. That beast is also very powerful; its quality is probably not low."

Chen Ye reminded him.

Wang Jing landed beside Bai Shuyi. At this time, the Tiangou (heavenly dog) was still protecting its master, and Wang Jing didn't dare to act rashly for a moment. He persuaded, "Beauty, you better make your pet behave, otherwise, you'll be very heartbroken if we kill such a good pet, right?"

"You beasts, scum!"

Bai Shuyi scolded, "At this critical moment, not only are you not helping humans, but you're harming me..."

"Whatever, you can scold us however you want! As for humans and stuff, don't include us. Besides, people are all selfish! We've always been money-grabbing and life-threatening gold diggers in the game, so now that the game has descended into reality, we'll naturally resume our old business."

Wang Jing smiled and revealed his in-game ID: "My name in the game is 'MentalPervert', you should have heard of it, right?"

Looking at this person, he was a mental pervert in reality.

"So it's you vermin!"

Bai Shuyi was very angry.

As a Valkyrie, she never tolerated treachery, but now she was severely injured, and she was ambushed by three 'comrades' she trusted. She couldn't swallow this breath even if she died!

"Don't even think about it. Even if I die in battle, I will never let you trash bully me!"

Bai Shuyi struggled to stand up.

She also summoned her pet.

Barely, she still had some fighting strength.

She wouldn't give in so easily!

However, it wasn't necessary anymore.

Because a voice came from behind the alley: "So you gold diggers have been hiding until now! I'm very curious, didn't you guys target me in the game? Why didn't you ever make a move?"

"Lin Chen!"

When Bai Shuyi heard this voice, she immediately felt relieved...

Lin Chen walked out of the shadows in the alley.

With wings on his back.

He was wearing a white fashion outfit: Spring Breeze Remaining Snow.

He held Tianji in his hand.

Zhuque (Vermillion Bird) was on the left, and Xuenv (Snow Woman) was on the right.

As soon as Lin Chen appeared, he locked onto Wang Jing.

Zhuque and Xuenv immediately attacked.

Xuenv cast an ice seal, and Zhuque cast a barrage of flames.

"Lin Zhong Chen Xi!" (Forest Morning Sunlight)

Wang Jing turned and ran.

But it was already too late.

Zhuque's flames had already hit him.

Wang Jing immediately spat out a mouthful of blood.

But at this time, two figures grabbed him and immediately rushed into the zombie horde on the street.

Overhead, the level 120 Boss giant monster also swung its giant axe.

However, the giant monster had been reduced to low health.

After weighing the situation, Lin Chen didn't chase after them.

He raised his hand, and instantly appeared behind the giant monster. Zhuque and Xuenv also unleashed their skills, and together with Lin Chen's enhanced sneak attack, they killed the two-headed monster.

A soul appeared.

And it was about to flee immediately.

But Lin Chen grabbed it with one hand and directly devoured it.

The bottleneck in Lin Chen's soul cultivation began to show signs of loosening...

A minute later, Lin Chen opened his eyes.

His entire body had a sharp and majestic aura.

He had cultivated to the sixth level of soul!

At the same time, his level also rose to 121!

There was no level cap like in the game in reality!

Today's fifth update, the word count is 15,000.

Tomorrow, I will continue to update at least 10,000 words!
