Apocalyptic Invasion: I Activated the Apocalyptic Points System

"Nanshan City".

As Chen Jianguo drove, he spoke his mind: "There are more women and children than men in our team now, Zhou Zhiqiang is injured, and Zhang Haiyang and Feng Wenlong are more trouble than they're worth."

"Zhang Haitao seems reliable, but he's too cunning. If it comes down to a life-or-death situation, he'll likely turn on those around him to survive."

He paused slightly and added, "The two brothers have a very good relationship." As he spoke, he glanced at Qin Xu sitting in the back seat through the rearview mirror.

"With just the two of us, we definitely can't protect everyone if danger strikes again, so I plan to go to Nanshan City to see if the authorities have set up a shelter."

"Uncle Chen, now that the internet and communication networks are down, can the official system still function effectively?" Zhang Yanan asked curiously, while peeling open a piece of chocolate and taking a small bite.

"Remember, never underestimate the organization capabilities of the authorities," Chen Jianguo said in a deep voice. "Initially, things may fall into chaos, but they will quickly break down into smaller branches of varying sizes."

"There may be some corrupt officials, but there are also people with firm beliefs, and these are the core strength of the government."

After overcoming the initial chaos, these people will immediately organize themselves to build shelters, form armed forces to fight monsters, and study the patterns of the fog.

"All carbon-based life forms will be reduced to ashes in the face of the steel torrent!" Although he said that, Chen Jianguo's face was full of worry.

"Unfortunately, this is not an ordinary apocalypse. The huge rift in the sky, the invasion from another world, and the strange fog that appears randomly are full of variables."

"But no matter what, joining an official shelter is at least safer. Even if we don't join an official one, Nanshan City can still gather more supplies."

In fact, these words were just Chen Jianguo's way of comforting people, so that they wouldn't be too desperate and at least have a hope of survival.

The reality is probably far more serious than he described.

When a country's social order collapses and its communication systems are completely paralyzed, it means that the laws and regulations meant to restrain people have become utterly ineffective.

Those who set up shelters and armed forces may have been genuinely acting for the country and its people at first, but as time goes on, power corrupts people's hearts!

Especially in the post-apocalyptic world where resources are becoming increasingly scarce, most people will slowly turn into dictators and local tyrants, using armed force to suppress anyone who threatens them.

Simply put, all shelters are likely safe at first.

However, as time goes by, a strict class division will inevitably emerge, and the lower class will become cannon fodder and sacrifices in life-or-death crises.

Chen Jianguo went to Nanshan City not only to see the official reaction and get rid of the burdens in his team, but also, most importantly, to see if he could get his hands on firearms.

He now has two choices: either join a sanctuary and seize power, or establish his own armed force.

If we could acquire some weapons and equipment, our priority would definitely be to establish our own armed force and then form a post-apocalyptic survival convoy.

Because the fog appears randomly, it is not suitable to stay in a shelter for a long time. The previous case in Qing Teng City was due to a sudden and overwhelming fog.

Therefore, the best way to survive is to form a convoy, constantly escape the fog, find safe areas without large areas of fog, and replenish various survival supplies and weapons along the way.

Chen Jianguo did not intend to tell anyone about these thoughts for the time being. Things are accomplished in secrecy, and ruined by being revealed. He only needed to proceed step by step according to his plan.

In fact, Qin Xu's thoughts coincided with Chen Jianguo's; he did not intend to join any shelter and wanted to form a convoy with absolute authority.

This not only avoids being shrouded in fog in one place for too long, but also allows you to kill monsters along the way to earn Doomsday Points and collect various resources.

In a chaotic apocalypse, one must hold power in one's own hands to control one's own destiny and avoid becoming cannon fodder for others.

The end times will breed human desires and ambitions! Just like oil breeds mold!

At this moment, the people in the two cars behind also had their own agendas.

In the apocalypse, the first rule of human survival is only one thing—to live!

……

It was a little after seven in the morning.

The three vehicles entered the outskirts of Nanshan City.

We had to stop as soon as we entered the city's main road because a series of accidents had occurred ahead, blocking the road with more than a dozen cars.

About two hundred meters ahead, there was a small spherical mist, a few dazed Corruptors, and some limbs and broken bodies crawling with flies on the ground.

The entire city's main roads, including the side streets, were in a state of chaos, with no living people in sight, seemingly plunged into a deathly silence.

"Brother Chen, the road ahead is blocked. What do we do next?" Zhang Haitao asked as the window of the Mazda parked next to the Wrangler rolled down.

"Let's take the side road and check out the situation in that residential area ahead. Let's find a place to stay first, and then discuss what to do next."

Chen Jianguo raised his finger and pointed to a residential area about 700 or 800 meters to his right. Then he shifted gears, reversed, and slowly backed away.

Eight or nine minutes later.

The three vehicles drove along the auxiliary road and entered the underground parking garage of Lishui Garden Community.

Several men got out of the car, huddled together, smoking and discussing what to do next, whether they should look for an official shelter.

Qin Xu had slept the whole way and seemed to be in good spirits. He stood to the side, listening to the heated discussion of the group with a slight frown.

"I think it would be better if we joined the officially established shelter." Zhou Zhiqiang, who was injured, looked weak and his voice was unsteady.

He knew in his heart that he was injured and unable to protect his wife and children, and that his brother-in-law, Feng Wenlong, was not as reliable as a Chinese rural dog.

Therefore, they must find an official shelter with their family as soon as possible to have a chance to survive; otherwise, they will be killed by the monster within a few days.

As for Chen Jianguo and Zhang Haitao?

Everyone here has a family to support. When it comes to a life-or-death crisis, who will save you first?

"You make it sound so easy. There's no cell phone network or signal, how are we supposed to find an official shelter?" Zhang Haiyang couldn't help but retort. "You go find it? Or should I?"

He didn't want to join any official shelter, nor did he want to be a law-abiding citizen anymore; instead, he wanted to do whatever he wanted.

It's already the end of the world.

Social order has collapsed, and the law of the jungle will become the main theme of the apocalypse. How many men don't want to build a power base and become a local tyrant with women on both sides?

At least, he wants to be one!

"I think we should find a safe place to get some rest," Zhang Haitao said, frowning. "Nobody slept well last night, and everyone's tired and sleepy, so their thinking ability is definitely affected."

"Okay." Chen Jianguo nodded and looked at everyone, saying, "The apocalypse has been going on for half a month now. I reckon a lot of people in this neighborhood have fled, so there should be some empty rooms. Let's go look for them."

Just as he finished speaking, a violent roar of a car engine suddenly came from afar in the deathly silent underground parking garage, accompanied by the ear-piercing sound of tires crushing debris, rapidly approaching!

Everyone's expression changed instantly, and they stopped all movement and conversation, turning their heads to look at the dark passage at the garage entrance.
