Chapter 5: Confrontation
"Is everyone here?" In a certain building, a group of people gathered around a table, and the person at the top asked.
"Everybody's here, if there's anything you command."
These are the people who know the truth so far.
At the top of the list was the young mayor, who nodded, and continued:
"You are all leaders, and if we can't unite this time, we will be wiped out."
"The fact before us is that the beasts have surrounded this city, and if we don't break out, we'll all die here."
"I have an idea for this escape plan."
"In order to take over the masses logically, we will hold an escape drill without the knowledge of the masses, and the social atmosphere must be rendered relaxed and happy, as if it was an outing."
"Externally, under the banner of worrying that everyone is panicking at home, internally, our personnel will start to organize secretly."
"When we leave the city and face the first wave of the offensive of the alien beasts, the leaders must immediately mobilize the masses and take over the masses."
Everyone else nodded in agreement, and if people were told now that they were fleeing to break out, then the social group would be in disarray.
They can only be driven to the single-plank bridge, which is a living road on the other side of the bridge, and they will die if they stay on this side of the bridge.
But the fear of the human heart can sometimes make people unable to move, and the leaders must see the situation clearly and push people to the bridge.
In this way, as many people as possible can survive.
"What if someone in the crowd protests and makes trouble?" Someone asked.
"We have the most information, we are better equipped to get them out, and you have a lot of responsibility on your shoulders."
"If you encounter trouble, you will be killed!"
If you want to save people, you have to make sacrifices, and you can't kill everyone because of one black sheep.
"Times have changed, and this era is the biggest fist." The mayor's eyes were sharp, and the others looked terrified.
In fact, the people here are the people who can make trouble the most, and the mayor is conveying a message to them that if they dare to make trouble, they will be killed.
Some people see it, and some people don't, but they are also scared.
Outside the city, taking advantage of the fact that others were not paying attention, Lu Shan sneaked out of the crowd.
"What is this for, running so far?" Someone in the crowd asked.
"It's nothing, it's just that the people in the government are afraid that we will get sick, so they organized an outing for us."
"Where are you going to go with this black light?" The man was still complaining.
Lu Shan passed by them, he knew the truth, even if it was an outing, he shouldn't have brought so many people.
He wanted to go in the direction of the dagger he had buried before, and when he got there, he dug out the dagger and put it in his handbag.
A pack full of daggers, even if used as a throwing weapon, can be used for a while.
After that, he snuck into the crowd again.
A man next to him patted him on the shoulder and whispered in his ear, "Someone is looking for you." ”
"Who?" He whispered in response.
"You are Lu Shan, the mayor is looking for you, he wants to thank you in person." The man continued.
The original idea of the escape was his idea, and it was not surprising that the mayor wanted to see him.
He glanced at his handbag before following the man out of the crowd.
In a small room, Lu Shan met the mayor, who was unexpectedly young.
"You're looking for me?" He spoke.
"Thank you very much for coming up with this idea, in fact, we have discussed escaping before, but the army will not let go." The mayor shook his hands warmly.
"If you stay here, you'll die, it's better to go out to a certain way of life, I don't know if it's right or not." Lu Shan shook his head.
For this escape, he didn't have much hope, and in his mind, it was a great miracle that one tenth of the people would survive.
"Yes, we can't wait for death, we have to take the initiative, I still have something to talk to you about, you put down the hug first, let's go to the back room to talk."
Lu Shan sensed that something was wrong, it was really quiet here, the house was surrounded by walls on all sides, and when the door was blocked, he couldn't fly.
"No need, I'm suddenly in a hurry to relieve myself." After saying that, turn around and leave.
"There's a toilet in there."
He pretended not to hear and continued walking, and just as he was about to reach the door, the muzzle of the black hole blocked him back.
"What's this for? Go to the toilet, urgent! He said deliberately out loud.
"Don't play dumb with you, what do you have in your bag." The mayor asked.
"It's not a bomb, it's sugar!" Lu Shan was in a hurry, although he vaguely sensed that something was wrong, but this was a bureau specially arranged for him.
Three or two people burst out and seized his bag, the zipper was opened, and a bag of daggers was presented to everyone.
Lu Shan knew that it was exposed, "You sent someone to follow me." "He was a little angry.
"There are our eyeliners in the crowd, and some people sneak out, so naturally they have to follow and have a look."
It seems that he knew that the bag contained a dagger.
He took out a dagger, looked at it with a frown, and asked, "What's so special about these daggers?" ”
"No, it's just an ordinary handicraft." Lu Shan said, "My family specializes in making these handicrafts, we also make kitchen knives, and the kitchen knives in your kitchen may be made by our family." ”
Lu Shan made up stories on the spot, and in the current situation, it is impossible for the mayor to check his information.
"Crafts?" He thrust the dagger into the nearby wooden bar, and the dagger sank deep into the wood.
"Why are the crafts so sharp, the three-eyed firesparrow can appear, and I think the 'magic weapon' will also appear."
Lu Shan finally understood, this guy didn't listen to the story he made up at all, no matter how true he made it up, he had already decided that these daggers had special abilities.
It was uncomfortable to be held to the head with a gun, and he moved his head.
The man with the gun slammed it hard at his head.
He knew that the mayor would not kill him easily, because he had secrets and value in him.
"Tell me the secret of these daggers, and I'll let you go." It's like a robber.
If I hadn't known in advance that it was the mayor, I would have thought it was a robber.
"Who are you? My family's handicrafts, passed down to me by my grandfather, I don't know what they are. Lu Shan said angrily.
"I'm the mayor, my real name is Wang Shengyang, you're not afraid of guns?"
"Forget it, I'll find someone to try it later, if you don't tell me, it won't be worthless, just shoot you to death."
Lu Shan had a muzzle on his head, somewhat afraid.
The scene was silent for a while, Wang Shengyang actually didn't dare to kill him easily, he was also afraid that this person would really do it.
Based on current observations, there is a good chance that this man will actually kill him.
"In order to protect our secrets, you must sacrifice, you have two choices, one is to join us and tell us the secret of the dagger; The second is to kill you and keep our secrets. ”
"You choose."
He said it lightly, but the pressure on Lu Shan's side was extremely great, and letting him choose was the biggest punishment for him.
His next sentence could have decided his life and death, and it was his long silence.
"Hurry up, our big army is going far, give me the answer in ten seconds."
"Ten, Nine, Eight, Seven, Six,......"
On Lu Shan's forehead, there was some fine sweat, and Wang Shengyang's voice was particularly ear-catching.
But this nervous feeling didn't last long, and he thought of the elemental bottle on him, and his heart suddenly became cold.
With a blank face, he said, "Kill me." ”
Wang Shengyang put a dagger against his neck, and said angrily: "Don't think I dare not kill you!" ”
"Kill me, you won't know how to use daggers, those things are very useful, I can make more daggers."
Lu Shan's cold gaze forced him to star, and for a few moments, Wang Shengyang's eyes flashed with retreat.
Smack!
The dagger fell to the ground, and Wang Shengyang grabbed him by the collar and said, "Tell us, we can save more people!" ”
His emotions were excited, and Lu Shan's cold heart was also a little touched.
He was shaken, and Lu Shan could feel the sincerity in Wang Shengyang's words.
This mayor really wants to save more people.
The eyes of the two met, and no one refused to let anyone, and finally Wang Shengyang looked away.
"These daggers are called Death Gas Daggers, the name is given by me, they have death energy, and their characteristics are life drainion and corrosion, and they are no problem to use against some ordinary alien beasts."
Lu Shan said the hole cards that he could save his life, and he was not afraid.
"How many daggers can you make?" The mayor sat on the ground tiredly, his voice a little weak.
"As long as the conditions are sufficient, as much as you want, as much as you want."
"On what terms?"
"Dead people."
"You are those extraordinary beings, I know that you have a treasure called an energy bottle, you can rest assured, no one can snatch the energy bottle."
"Energy bottles? My name is the Elemental Bottle. Lu Shan was puzzled, not knowing if what he was talking about was a thing.
"There seem to be two names, and the people on them are recruiting a large number of people with energy bottles, and I still know your abilities." Wang Shengyang said.
"What does an energy bottle do?" Lu Shan wanted to get some useful information from him.
"The energy soldier is just a basic operation, and the power of the energy bottle lies in the energy endowment, which allows ordinary people to use energy too."
Hearing this, Lu Shan's heart moved, if ordinary people can use energy, so many ordinary people will be a huge force.
He suddenly thought of something and continued to ask, "There are energy bottles among the people above you, so what is the current situation of the human race?" ”
"Retreat." Two words contain a lot of information.
"We've launched nuclear bombs and cut network cables just to keep the news from leaking."
So that's the case, Lu Shan suddenly realized.
"With the energy bottle, people still can't stop the beast!" He wasn't emotional enough.
"That's because you haven't become strong yet, it's ridiculous that the fate of humanity should be in the hands of a few."
"yes, it's always been like this."
Wang Shengyang was stunned for a moment, and lowered his head gloomily.
"Oh no, the beast is coming!" An urgent report came from outside the door.
