The peaceful period lasted for two days.
For a time, the wilderness was filled with fortresses and mud houses. The big teams built towns while the small teams built villas.
They formed their own groups and cleared the small monsters and dinosaurs.
They did not start a war but were always preparing for war. The big teams used various methods to recruit the small teams. Because of Chu Han's success, they believed that the advantage of numbers was the most important thing in the early stages of the game. They began to blindly worship the strength of numbers, as if whoever had more people was stronger.
As long as they did not provoke the giant beasts, the only enemy was themselves.
Lan Mu secretly shook his head and thought to himself, 'Haven't they realized the importance of strength after being crushed by the giant beasts?'
'When facing ordinary monsters, the number of people is indeed what humans rely on when they are weak. However, indulging in this empty reliance and using it as an excuse to continue being weak is wrong. As you go further, you will encounter more giant beasts and monsters. These are not monsters that can be defeated by the weak! '
'You know nothing about strength. It's time to let you understand everything.'
'Before that, I will let you feel pain!'
Lan Mu had designed a heart-wrenching game. It was not easy to provide a common skill tree. The only divine system required a large amount of faith.
The current situation was actually forced by the game. Without the capital to support individual strength, the players could only be abused if they did not form a group.
However, Lan Mu had expected this. He had prepared a monster feast. It would be the players' nightmare and an opportunity for a few people to rise!
Lan Mu did not start the feast when the second batch of beta testers entered. He waited for everyone to adapt to the game.
'Not bad. This Chu Han should be the leader of the second batch of beta testers. No matter what you rely on, the second batch of beta testers will rise.'
'Very good. It's time to activate the Blood Moon.'
Lan Mu looked at the moon in the sky. It was only a little bit above the horizon. It was now dusk in the game, and night was about to fall.
He gently pointed at the moon. It was not a physical object, but a symbolic shadow.
However, under his guidance, the moon suddenly turned scarlet and slowly rose.
For a moment, all the players saw the scarlet moon rising in the sky and illuminating the night.
'Oh my god! The Blood Moon? '
'What happened?'
"I have a bad feeling!"
This was not the first time the players had played the game. No one would think that the abnormal situation in the game was an accident. Such a shocking change had to be a game mechanism. Furthermore, it did not look like the rise of the blood moon was a good omen.
As expected, with the appearance of the Blood Moon, the monsters became restless. They became crazy and attacked the humans without thinking.
Not only that, in the depths of the forest, where humans had yet to explore, giant beasts had also rushed out. Not just one, but several of them!
Almost every exploration base had been attacked by one or two Prehistoric Behemoths. Even the smallest Prehistoric Behemoth was 70 meters long. Although these Prehistoric Behemoths did not possess any special abilities, their massive bodies were enough to destroy any player-built fortress.
"F * ck! Monsters are attacking the city! "
"How many days has it been? What can we do to resist? "
Because the North American region had started building houses early on, the other six regions had started to draw up land and occupy the wilderness as their territory.
Basically, the teams that had accumulated enough merit points would have built a fort in the wilderness as their campsite. Teams that did not even have a campsite were all rookies.
But now, the players who lived outside the bases were dumbfounded. Countless monsters were attacking their fortresses crazily. The players who did not have any defensive weapons wanted to cry but had no tears. They wanted to commit suicide and return to the city.
The fortresses were like isolated islands in the ocean, struggling bitterly against the waves of monsters.
In the face of the berserk monsters, many small fortresses were defeated. In the night, they were like lamps that had been extinguished.
The bigger teams' defenses were much tighter. They withstood wave after wave of attacks.
"Block it! You must block it! "
"There's a leak over there. Throw the bombs!"
At this time, they could not care less. Everyone was fighting with their lives.
However, despair still shrouded them. When the Behemoths appeared, the players basically gave up resisting. The seemingly sturdy walls could not withstand a single blow from the Behemoths and were easily destroyed.
"Don't! I don't want to die! "
Under the Blood Moon, the shadows of the Behemoths shrouded the players. Many of them were terrified.
With a rumble, the large fortresses were also breached.
All kinds of ferocious monsters that they had never seen before appeared in front of them. There were spiders, dogs, crocodiles, mantises, and so on.
The players were faced with a real life and death situation. They were terrified.
Some people were forced to go offline. Some people pulled out their guns and committed suicide. They would rather die than be killed by the monsters.
With the appearance of the Behemoths and Behemoths, the players finally saw the real monsters. These were the real enemies of mankind!
The Behemoths and Velociraptors from before? They were just food.
Without exception, all the fortresses built by the players outside the bases in the six regions were all defeated. The monsters could not stop them!
A large number of players died. Five minutes later, they did not choose to revive immediately. Instead, they went to the official forum to complain and vent.
"Blood Moon! Damn it! The home that we worked so hard to build is gone! "
"It's too scary. The densely packed monsters are rushing over. My scalp is tingling!"
"This game is too realistic. I was afraid of dying in the game and forced myself to quit. Now I don't even dare to go online. Anyway, I'll die if I go online!"
"Damn, those spiders are too disgusting. They all have compound eyes. I killed myself."
"What the f * ck are you playing! During the day, I was still bullying the small monsters with my team. At night, I'm being tortured by the monsters. "
"Are the game producers looking for trouble? The game's difficulty is off the charts. Because it's the first holographic online game, we endured it … But we just got used to the game and this happened? Isn't this clearly a torture? The monsters are so strong and we're so weak. The penalty for reviving is so heavy. How dare they ask for money? This stupid game will be finished sooner or later! "
"Change! Change! Change! We can already enter the alternate world. I'm still using a gun. This setting is crazy. "
"The realistic killing scenes are too bloody. Why is this game not harmonious?"
"I want to report this! Is there anyone who can control this game? "
All kinds of posts about Blood Moon appeared on the forum. The players were very angry.
The various countries wanted to control the game long ago. They all questioned Merrica.
It was a game that was a little too realistic, and the content was so free and unrestrained. It was cruel and torturous. All the countries asked the Angel Group to stop the server.
But soon, a piece of news came out from the Angel Group. It immediately shocked the governments of the various countries.
This game was made at the request of Angel Gabriel.
When the news came out, the small countries immediately quieted down. Gabriel's influence was too great. It was beyond the level of a phenomenon. Every country was afraid of her.
She was a true god. The small countries did not have the guts to interfere when an angel was involved.
The large countries also did not make a move. They were waiting for CANC's response.
CANC had noticed this game long ago. They could also create holographic online games. However, they could not create a game as realistic as Apocalypse. Moreover, the content was rich and colorful. It could even simulate the laws of physics.
This kind of thing was a bit like an anomaly.
CANC had studied the game equipment for a long time. Although the equipment self-destructed after it was disassembled, they still found that it had nanotechnology.
That was all. They could not find any more advanced technology.
In fact, CANC knew that the game came from Gabriel. Now, they heard the Angel Group admit it. Gabriel requested the merger of the eight major gaming companies to create this game. The bosses of the eight major gaming companies could not refuse God's will. They were all devout believers.
CANC could not do anything about this. Gabriel's influence on Earth was at the level of a true god. The Angel Group acted as if they believed in God, so they had to listen to God's will. Before CANC had the confidence to deal with the angels, they could not casually deal with the Angel Group and the game.
When asked about the source of the game, the Angel Group only said that it came from Gabriel. As for how the game was created, they said that they did not know. Everything was attributed to the greatness of God.
In the end, after much consideration, CANC decided to endure.
This was the weakest period of CANC. Before the International Space Team could effectively suppress the Zergs and free up the seven top evangelists stationed on the Moon to return to Earth, they did not want to have a conflict with the angels.
It was just a game. They had learned from Otto in the future that the Apocalypse game was destined to happen. However, it was a fact that CANC lost to the alliance of angels and demons in history.
Since they already had the future as a reference, CANC chose to endure.
Earth needed to be peaceful. A balance between humans, God, and Zergs.
…
Lan Mu purposely revealed the fact that the Angel Group was under Gabriel's protection. The other countries, including CANC, did not react.
However, Lan Mu found that some CANC people had logged into the game. Obviously, they were here to study Gabriel.
Lan Mu chuckled. My goal is the Kingdom of God. It would be strange if you could guess it. At most, you would think that the angels were preaching in another way.
For the time being, CANC could accept this method of preaching. They believed that it was better for the angels to preach in the game than to expand their believers in real life.
After more than 20 minutes of the Blood Moon event, the number of online players had decreased by 70%.
Only 30% were still struggling in the base. The rest of the players were determined.
They enjoyed this game. Although they were afraid of the monsters, they vaguely felt that it was exciting.
Facing the monsters that were almost impossible to defeat, they did not run away. Instead, they chose to fight to the death!
"According to the forum, Africa has fallen. Their exploration bases have been breached!"
"There's news that Australia has fallen as well …"
"However, the defenders of these two regions have posted on the forum that they will hold on until the end. Unless their bases lose the resurrection function, they will continue to resist! Oh my god, their video has been released, and the number of views has exceeded 100,000. Their players are being massacred, and they are being revived and killed … Everyone is admiring them, and there are already many people who have logged out of the game coming back online to help … "
"Good! The Africans have lost their base, but they still haven't quit the game. Are we worse than them? Go post now and say that we will hold on for the whole night! Players can't be defeated by monsters! I won't quit the game even if I die a hundred times! "
"Got it! Captain, it's just a monster siege. It's not like we haven't fought it before! "
30% of the players stubbornly continued to play the game. They gradually overcame their fear. Their hard work was destroyed by the monsters. This anger became their motivation.
Although this game had a difficult setting and difficulty, it also attracted many players. The more painful the game was, the greater the sense of achievement it gave the players.
This was too much like a new life! The players could fight freely. Even though it was cruel and they would always fail, the players had a chance to start again. The choices that they could not make in real life were made here.
Resurrected and then killed by the monsters. Some people only lived for three seconds before dying.
But to be a coward for life or a hero for three seconds, these people who did not quit the game made the choice that they would not have made in real life.
"What's the point of playing a game if you don't want to be a hero?"
Lan Mu floated in the air. The fear and pain he received was decreasing. Those who provided him with the greatest fear had already quit the game. Those who were left were those who gradually overcame their fear. There was no point in continuing the Blood Moon.
"Very good, this is really unexpected … The dream line only increased to two million before it stopped. Should I be disappointed or happy?"
Lan Mu did not know what he was feeling. After a moment of confusion, he smiled.
"It's time for Gabriel to show up, or else these players will really die a hundred times …"
A bright star fell from the sky. The moment it crossed the Blood Moon, the red light dimmed.
The bright holy light descended, and the six-winged angel floated in the air. Everyone knew him.
The Archangel Gabriel.
