Chapter 4: Swiftly Engage in Battle

Regardless of whether it is a game or a real-life situation, one must remain fully focused in order to survive. The zombies have already charged in, and they will not give the players any time to adapt

Liu Qian took advantage of this opportunity to circle behind the zombies, swiftly striking down two of them with his knife, while another zombie was knocked to the ground by the iron rod in the hands of the green-skinned man

"Did I say it hurts a lot? Do you think I'm joking? Now you know it hurts?" The bald man felt much more balanced inside as he saw two more players had been bitten.

Two more clouds of black mist entered Liu Qian's body, causing him to feel a surge of heat within, as if filled with power. His vision and hearing seemed to have improved slightly as well. Liu Qian instinctively glanced at the player attributes displayed on his wristwatch, and he noticed that his level had changed from 1 to 2.

Liu Qian and the green-skinned man simultaneously stepped aside, allowing three zombies to charge directly into the crowd behind them. One of the zombies lunged at a man, while the other two lunged together at another man from hetushucomcom. Previously, Liu Qian and the green-skinned man had been blocking the front, and the crowd was completely unprepared for such a high-speed collision. In an instant, they were knocked down by the three zombies, resulting in a cacophony of curses and screams.

How do we escape? Where are we now? How did they get in? After getting in, how will they take us away? You think it's that simple! The slender player shook his head, revealing a look of disdain towards the player who resembled a civil servant.

The two individuals who were just knocked to the ground by three zombies are now screaming loudly, with blood gushing from their bodies all over the ground

After studying the wristwatch for a while, Liu Qian stood up, making an effort to stabilize his body with his hands and feet. Compared to the panic of the other players, he felt somewhat bewildered as well, but for him, a disabled person who had once undergone an amputation, being alive and having regained the use of his limbs represented a new hope. Therefore, he was, in fact, the calmest among the ten players.

"Now is not the time for discussion! What weapons and tools have you all chosen? If you don't want to be bitten, hurry up and prepare for battle!" Liu Qian tightened his grip on the machete and charged to the front, shouting to the others.

The bespectacled man who first discovered the watch, along with several other players, attempted to open the watch's alloy bracelet to remove it from his wrist, but they soon realized that all their efforts were in vain. The watch was made of a sturdy alloy with unknown properties, and its size fit each player's wrist perfectly, neither too large nor too small. Unless the correct method to open it was found or powerful tools were used to dismantle it, it was simply impossible to remove it from the wrist.

Finally, a few individuals reacted and quickly took out their weapons, hiding behind Liu Qian and the green-skinned man. Some held iron rods, while others had grenades or Molotov cocktails, all of which were the initial weapons they had chosen upon entering the game

Since this is a game approved for development and release by the government, the game company must have a way to help us escape, such as enabling a game exit function. Perhaps everything we are experiencing right now is just a joke played on us by the game company

No matter what happens, he knows that surviving is the only way to possibly uncover the truth and to find a way to escape the game

At the moment when three zombies were about to charge towards Liu Qian and the crowd, Liu Qian let out a loud shout... Instead of swinging his machete to confront them, he executed a sideways roll to evade the path of the zombies rushing at high speed. If he hadn't moved aside, the combined force of the three zombies charging at him would have been enough to knock him down.

Liu Qian stood valiantly at the forefront, sword in hand, alongside a young man wielding an iron rod. The other players armed themselves and formed a line behind them, ready to confront the three zombies charging at high speed. A small-scale battle was on the verge of breaking out

Having experienced the lowest point in life just a year ago, Liu Qian's mindset is evidently much better than that of other players. While others are still in a state of anxiety, forcibly drawn into the game with no way to exit, he has already mentally prepared himself for a long-term battle, even ready to be trapped in the game world indefinitely.

"If we cannot exit, the game company hetushu.com will soon discover the anomaly, and they will come to rescue us. With so many people joining the game and encountering issues, even if the game company does not intervene, the government will definitely step in to address the situation," speculated a player who appeared to be in his late twenties, dressed in a suit and resembling a civil servant.

At that moment, three zombies wandering several dozen meters away had already noticed the anomaly here. After letting out a series of howls, they suddenly charged towards the location of the ten players.

I can't believe it! It hurts so much! What kind of ridiculous game is this? Are we playing for real?" The two men who had just been bitten started cursing loudly. In modern society, where do homebodies have the chance to suffer such serious injuries in real life? This kind of pain is simply beyond what they can endure

"Everyone, quickly form ranks!" The young man with a greenish complexion also shouted loudly, standing beside Liu Qian with an iron rod in hand. The two exchanged a glance filled with camaraderie, as if they were long-time close comrades in arms.

Among the initial weapons, there are no firearms available for selection. The options, apart from machetes and iron rods, are limited to disposable consumables such as grenades and Molotov cocktails.

He did not know why, but upon seeing the change in this value and after the graphical representation, Liu Qian felt a sense of calm settle in his heart, as if he had suddenly gained a clear direction and goal for his efforts. He believed that with his limbs restored, as long as he worked hard to hunt more zombies, he could become stronger and significantly increase his chances of survival

At the same time that Liu Qian rolled to the side to evade, the young man with green skin also rolled to the side from the other direction. It was evident that both of them had the same thought in mind... Death to a fellow comrade is not the concern of a poor Taoist; they had no obligation to shield unfamiliar players from the storm.

Returning to the real world, losing his hands and feet once again, and remaining in this current trembling world filled with crises, neither of these choices seemed to him to be better than the other. Thus, although Liu Qian felt quite confused at this moment, he was more focused on being fully alert to the dangers surrounding him

"Is it possible? If you die here, you really die? Does that mean the San Yu Company is killing people? It is said that today hundreds of thousands of players will enter the game, so does that mean hundreds of thousands of people are trapped here and unable to leave?" The player wearing glasses shook his head vigorously, his face filled with disbelief.
