Chapter 20 The First Rule of Survival in the Scarlet Apocalypse!

At noon, a piercing alarm suddenly sounded in the Tiemu camp.

Ma Zi, who was sleeping soundly, opened his eyes with difficulty.

After killing scarlet beasts for more than ten hours, he only slept for four hours. Even if his body was strengthened, it was impossible to recover all the consumed physical strength in such a short time.

"Damn it, it's really worse than death!"

Ma Zi knew that the alarm sounded, which meant that the camp was about to be breached.

Without thinking too much, he grabbed the black composite bow beside him and walked out of the room quickly.

At this time, the camp looked panicked, but it still maintained a certain order.

Chen Ping stood behind Ma Zi without knowing when.

"Brother Chen, you woke up too!" Ma Zi cheered up and greeted Chen Ping.

Chen Ping nodded: "The second line of defense has been breached, and the scarlet beasts outside have reached the last line of defense of the camp!"

Before his rebirth, Chen Ping was accustomed to the rhythm of the scarlet apocalypse, never had a deep sleep, and was always vigilant.

Especially in the Scarlet Secret Realm, the perception of danger has long become a conditioned reflex.

"Really? The second line of defense is gone?" Ma Zi opened his eyes wide and was completely awake.

The second line of defense is the most solid outside the Tiemu camp.

All the heavy weapons collected by the camp are almost all concentrated on the second line of defense.

If the second line of defense cannot be defended, then the defensive fortifications behind it are basically useless for the scarlet beasts.

"It's over, it's over, this time it's really going to be cold!"

Duan Zixuan's face was full of panic, and he was slightly relieved until he saw Chen Ping.

"It's said that the second line of defense has been breached, brother, what should we do!" Duan Zixuan walked quickly to Chen Ping.

"Don't worry, Tiemu is not the first camp to be destroyed by the beast tide. There are at least dozens of camps accompanying it." Chen Ping was still calm.

He felt that he should be able to leave. The only thing he was reluctant to leave was the scarlet cabin of the camp, where scarlet coins could only be used.

Unfortunately, this thing cannot be taken away. If it is forcibly moved, it will be completely destroyed.

Before the rebirth, someone did this stupid thing, which resulted in the explosion of the Scarlet Cabin. All creatures in the area ten times larger than Binhai were turned into ashes in the explosion.

However, in the short term, Chen Ping cannot use the Scarlet Cabin. To improve his talent and the quality of the beasts again, he needs nearly a thousand Scarlet Coins. When the Scarlet Secret Realm arrives, Chen Ping may not be able to save up 500.

"Mash, there is a gap in the last line of defense. You immediately take a team of people over there and make sure to withstand this wave of attacks!"

Zhang Tie found Ma Zi, his eyes were bloodshot, and his voice was even more hoarse.

"Team One, assemble! Follow me!"

Ma Zi jumped up, stood on a high table, and shouted loudly.

All the members of Team One immediately gathered around.

At this time, there was no need to do any pre-war mobilization.

They had no way to retreat. If the Tiemu camp was breached, they would all be drowned in the beast tide and become food in the mouths of the Red Fire Wolf and corpses under their feet.

Including Chen Ping, a team of ten people went to the last line of defense of the Tiemu camp.

A low wall has been built here with corpses. People holding guns and weapons are hiding behind the corpse wall and shooting outward.

There are not so many people in the Tiemu camp. Most of those who became corpses or resisted the scarlet beasts came to seek refuge after other camps were breached.

There are also "lone wolves" in the scarlet wilderness. Seeing that there are still camps holding on, they think of hiding here from the beast tide.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

Duan Zixuan hid behind a corpse wall made of several corpses and kept pulling the trigger.

There were countless red fire wolves in the distance. There was no need to aim at all. As long as the arrow was shot, it would definitely hit a red fire wolf.

"Brother, do you think my archery skills are getting more and more proficient? I hit the target every time!"

Chen Ping also hid aside and occasionally fired a few bullets outward.

"Well, the progress is so fast, there is not much room for improvement!" Chen Ping said casually.

At this time, he confirmed that the scarlet beasts outside were all level two!

He had hardly experienced the beast tide in the five years of the Scarlet Apocalypse. After all, the scarlet beasts around the Lin family camp had been cleaned up by him.

However, he had heard a lot about the beast tide.

The beast tide occurs every three months and lasts for seven days. Normally, the first four days are very easy, until the fifth day, the impact of the beast tide reaches its strongest, the sixth day begins to weaken, and the seventh day ends.

However, today is only the second day of the beast tide, and it has changed from a level one scarlet beast to a level two scarlet beast.

This is extremely rare in the early stage of the beast tide.

Even before Chen Ping was reborn, in the fifth year of the Scarlet Apocalypse, the beast tide on the second day was not so strong.

There must be something wrong when things are abnormal!

Chen Ping, who originally planned to leave directly, suddenly decided to wait and see for a while.

With the primary potion he made last night, he was able to deal with the second-level scarlet beast in the scarlet wilderness. Even if he faced a third-level scarlet beast, he could move freely with the blue "sacrifice" talent.

But he didn't know how large the scope of the beast tide in the coastal area was.

If the coverage area was far enough, he might really die of exhaustion halfway.

For many things, he couldn't do them completely according to his experience in his previous life.

After his rebirth, he would definitely change the direction of all things like a butterfly flapping its wings.

Including the third-level red fire wolf.

He was originally supposed to be killed by the Chen family, but now he was intercepted by Chen Ping.

This will lead to complete changes in what will happen next.

"It's better to wait and see first and be more cautious. You can never go wrong!"

Chen Ping made up his mind and rejoined the battle.

Soon, this gap was gradually secured, but other places were in danger.

"Area No. 5 can hardly be defended anymore!"

Mazi glanced at the message on the bracelet, and her face became even more ugly.

Their location is Area 7, located directly south of the camp.

Area 5 is behind them on the right.

"Mazi, you guys hold on, I'll guard area seven!" Chen Ping took the rare initiative, which surprised Mazi.

But with Chen Ping passing by, there will definitely be no problems in Area 5.

"Okay, be careful!"

Mazi nodded.

The surrounding environment is extremely dangerous, and they have no energy to talk more nonsense.

Chen Ping also nodded, stood up and left.

He killed more than a dozen second-level red fire ferocious wolves along the way, and only exploded two white quality carousels. None of the prizes on them were eye-catching, and Chen Ping couldn't arouse the slightest interest in taking them.

When we arrived at Area 5, there were only seven or eight people left to make the final resistance.

Moreover, these few people were all seriously injured. Some had their arms bitten off by the red fire ferocious wolf, and some had their legs torn off.

With such injuries, there is basically no chance of survival in this early stage of the apocalypse, but they have not given up yet and are still resisting.

Chen Ping fought all the way and cleared a vacuum area. The corpses of the red fire wolves also became an obstacle to the subsequent progress of the red fire wolves.

"Xiao Hei, you stay here for a while, I'll be right back!"

Chen Ping took out the black zerg from his arms.

"Master, I'm so small and they're so big, how can I keep them?"

"I trust you!"

"But... I don't believe in myself! Hey! Hey!"

Chen Ping ignored Xiao Hei's resistance, left it behind, and turned around to leave.

The raw material for the primary violent potion is blood spider.

There are still five days left for the beast tide to end. Counting yesterday afternoon's consumption, Chen Ping only had two bottles of primary violent potion left on him.

This can improve all attributes by three points in five minutes.

For Chen Ping, who has been promoted to the silver rank, the effect does not seem to be as obvious as it was initially, but in fact it is not.

At the same time, using the primary strength potion, the attribute bonus in terms of strength reaches eight points.

In critical moments, if you activate the "Sacrifice" talent, your strength attribute will increase by an additional twenty-four points, and the total bonus will directly reach eighty-four points.

With the blessing of potions and "sacrifice", the basic attributes are close to 300 points.

An ordinary third-level scarlet beast only has three to four hundred attribute points, and the lord type will be higher, not exceeding five hundred points.

When Chen Ping was in his prime, he was completely a super BOSS.

In the early days of the apocalypse, by turning on "Sacrifice", Chen Ping could become invincible for three seconds.

Therefore, Chen Ping must be fully prepared for this elementary violent potion.

"Bang bang bang!"

Chen Ping shot several red fire ferocious wolves in succession, but there were too many of them to kill them all, and there was a tendency to kill more and more.

Soon, the wolves swamped Chen Ping, and the disadvantage of the pistol at this time was clearly demonstrated.

"Gulu!"

Chen Ping drank the three potions of strength, agility, and endurance directly, and escaped from the wolf pack as quickly as possible.

"You still have to get a handy close-quarters weapon!"

Chen Ping's arms and back were scratched in many places by the wolves, but they were not serious.

The spider silk armor was completely torn when fighting the level three red fire ferocious wolf.

This time when he went to find the blood spiders, Chen Ping was also going to get some more spider silk, which was definitely a weapon for self-defense in the early days of the apocalypse.

Even the attack of the third-level scarlet beast can have a certain defensive effect.

It took nearly two hours for Chen Ping to find a blood spider cave.

This time there was no help from the zerg, so he had to go into battle himself.

The diameter of the hole is about one and a half meters, and the smell of blood mixed with the biting cold wind blows outward from the depths.

Chen Ping is 1.8 meters tall, so even his movements are greatly restricted in such a cramped cave.

"Bang!"

Suddenly, a bullet was fired, and a red spider the size of a human head was killed directly.

The black-red liquid splashed onto the wall, making a sizzling sound.

Chen Ping has long been accustomed to this.

"I didn't expect that there would be a second-level blood spider!"

Chen Ping put the body of the blood spider into the space stone.

Using this second-level blood spider to make a primary violent potion will have a higher success rate, and it is possible to increase all attributes by four.

"Bang bang bang!"

After firing several shots in succession, he easily killed several first-level blood spiders and collected a lot of spider silk.

Suddenly, Chen Ping had an ominous premonition in his heart.

This is the perception ability developed in the scarlet secret realm.

This premonition of crisis has allowed Chen Ping to save his life countless times.

"Level three blood spider?" Chen Ping held his breath and concentrated, filling up all the status first.

Then carefully step back until you reach the entrance of the cave.

Chen Ping didn't stop at all and returned to the Ironwood Camp as quickly as possible.

Although he now has the strength to touch the third-level scarlet beast, that is all theoretical strength and paper data.

In actual combat, victory or defeat is never determined based on the size of the data.

Caution is the first rule of thumb for survival in the apocalypse.

If you want to kill a level 3 scarlet beast, you must be fully prepared!

This time, the scarlet beast cannot be seriously injured like the level 3 red fire wolf.
