Chapter 343 Discovering the Secret
"Ah! Help!"
"I know I was wrong, I really know I was wrong!"
"It hurts..."
While Zhao Zhihao was weakened, the sprint progress reached 40%, and the attack stopped.
Wang Chenqian pulled Zhao Zhihao back and consciously fed him a high-end all-purpose pill.
Once his body was fully restored, Zhao Zhihao scrambled to his feet, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed to the three men.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I know I was wrong. Don't use me as a shield anymore, you'll die, you really will die."
"Please, I have good stuff! I have high-level fragments! Waaaaah..."
Seeing that the three men were unmoved by his pleas for mercy, Zhao Zhihao covered his face and cried.
I don't know if it was fear or genuine regret that made me cry.
The progress bar has reached 42%, and a new round of stone balls is attacking, each ball reducing the defense value by 32.
"no, do not want!"
Zhao Zhihao stared in horror at the stone, which was even larger than the stone roadblocks by the roadside.
"I'm going to die, I'm really going to die!"
However, his demands were destined to go unanswered, and Wang Chenqian still threw him away.
"Click."
The stone ball struck Zhao Zhihao, making a crisp sound as if bones were breaking.
In that instant, Zhao Zhihao's head slumped down, as if he were dead.
Wang Chenqian pulled him back and placed him at Lu Youyou's feet.
Seeing that Zhao Zhihao was still breathing, Lu Youyou gave him a high-grade all-purpose pill.
Wang Lu timidly spoke up from the side: "Isn't this too much of a loss? One stone attack consumes a high-grade universal pill. What if he eats all our pills? What will we do then?"
The stone balls outside kept hitting the yard, and the "-32" that kept appearing on the wall made everyone feel tense and scared.
In just one minute, the stone ball had already reduced their defense by nearly a thousand points.
Wang Chenqian was as anxious as an ant on a hot pan, but she couldn't think of any solution.
She kicked Zhao Zhihao, who was pretending to be dead, and continued to vent her anger.
"It's all your fault! It's all your fault! There were clearly 24 hours for everyone to collect defense points, why didn't you take action!"
Zhao Zhihao was powerless to resist, nor did he dare to resist. He could only silently endure the pain, not even daring to utter a sound.
Fearing that he would provoke Wang Chenqian to even greater annoyance, he impulsively beat her to death.
Even the most powerful and most potent panacea cannot bring someone back to life.
Lu Youyou seemed not to hear the screams from the other side, focusing solely on opening the [Reagent Station].
She had already produced a healing agent through haphazard pairing, and all she needed to do was produce a cell regeneration solution.
"No, we still need the skeleton of the multi-headed serpent to make it..."
"what?"
Lu Youyou was talking to herself, but Wang Chenqian had amazing hearing. Despite the loud explosions outside and the crackling sounds inside, she could hear what Lu Youyou was saying.
Since someone had overheard her, Lu Youyou simply asked directly, "Do you have the skeleton of a multi-headed snake?"
Wang Chenxi crossed her arms, looking wary: "What do you want that for?"
It seems Wang Chenqian has the skeleton of a multi-headed snake.
Do you have many multi-headed snake skeletons?
Wang Chenxi's expression became even more wary: "What exactly do you want?"
"Make advanced all-purpose pills."
Upon hearing this, Wang Chenqian was stunned.
She opened her mouth, as if she doubted that she could hear correctly.
"doing what?"
"The advanced panacea is ready, but we're still missing two things: cell regeneration fluid and the multi-headed serpent skeleton."
Now that things have come to this, Lu Youyou has no need to hide anything anymore.
We're all in this together; if our defenses drop to zero, we'll all die.
Rather than dying with a high-level panacea, it's better to use it in a critical moment and shield yourself from attack.
She only had about two hundred pills in her backpack, which seemed like a lot, but in reality, it was negligible compared to the consumption during the attack.
"Since you're being honest, then I'll be honest with you too. I do have quite a few multi-headed snake skeletons, but I don't have cell regeneration fluid."
Wang Lu, who was standing nearby, twitched her ears. She looked up, as if she wanted to say something, but ultimately lowered her head and kept quiet.
There's always a way.
"I'll collect the cell regeneration fluid from the public chat, but we need to jointly provide the supplies they require."
Wang Chenqian: "That's for sure."
Wang Lu gave a dry laugh: "I agree."
Lu Youyou posted a purchase request on the public screen, even stating that she could exchange any existing resources for it.
Ordinary people don't know about cell regeneration fluid, and those who have cell regeneration fluid are unwilling to sell it.
After all, Lu Youyou needs this thing, so how bad can it be? What if I can use it too?
Lu Youyou waited and waited, until the stone attacks stopped and the progress reached 50%, but no one messaged her privately.
At this moment, the total defense value is only a little over 15,000.
Before they could rest for more than a few minutes, a snowball attack appeared, twice the size of the previous stone ball.
Wang Chenqian glanced at Zhao Zhihao, then looked meaningfully at Wang Lu.
"Whether you throw him away or not is up to you. Next time, it'll be your turn to provide the high-grade panacea."
Wang Lu took a deep breath, as if she had made a major decision: "Throw it away."
"what--"
Zhao Zhihao screamed as he was swung away by the rope, snowballs hitting him and shattering.
Wang Chenxi was afraid he was dead, so she quickly pulled Zhao Zhihao back. Seeing that Zhao Zhihao was even more energetic than when he was hit by the stone last time, she frowned in confusion.
"How come his attack power has increased, but his mental state has improved?"
"I see!"
Lu Youyou suddenly realized.
"Skill attack power is relative to the base. For example, a stone ball only damages the ground in the yard, while a snowball can melt the solid soil inside the wall."
"But for humans, snowballs are not as heavy as stone balls. Snowballs that can quickly reduce the base's defenses do not cause as much damage to humans."
After hearing Lu Youyou's words, Wang Chenqian understood.
"So the adults set us up with fireballs, waterballs, and stones, to make us think that the attacks on humans would increase as we went on, so that we wouldn't dare to use people as shields."
As she spoke, she laughed sarcastically.
"It's just that the adults didn't expect our team to be such scoundrels, actually risking their teammates' lives to protect themselves, which is how we discovered this secret."
Lu Youyou also showed the same smile.
"This secret can only be discovered by teams with exceptionally strong cohesion and teams with exceptionally weak cohesion. Others sacrifice themselves for others, while we sacrifice others for ourselves."
"Teams that are in the middle position are probably the key reason for their early demise. They dare not risk their own lives, nor do they dare to exchange the lives of their teammates for safety."
