Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!

Gong Dong's two points were actually already considered by Shen Hao.

If it really were a virus-type spread, one month's time would have been enough to spread it all over the world.

"You're right, I have observed," Shen Hao nodded in agreement with what Gong Dong had said, "On the streets, the number of people replaced by monsters isn't high. This indicates that, at least in our country, we are still the hunters, and they are merely prey!" His gaze slowly swept over the others' faces as he emphasized, "The most important things to do right now are two. First, rapidly annihilate all monsters, ensuring none are missed. The second point, which is crucially important, is to quickly find out the monsters' method and mode of spreading!"

All the others nodded in agreement, obviously feeling the urgency.

Dealing with these monsters is the same as dealing with viruses.

One must race against time, and time is on the enemy's side!

"Furthermore," Shen Hao continued, "let's not mention how to find the monsters, the problem of how to deal with them once found is also a challenge. Ordinary bullets are not lethal to monsters. We also need to enable ordinary soldiers to efficiently neutralize them. Otherwise, relying only on the Chosen Ones, even if all the country's Chosen Ones unite, it might not be enough."

"Report!" Yang Jun suddenly spoke up, "On this point, I have important intelligence to report."

"Speak," Shen Hao looked towards him.

"I suspect that the monsters likely have a vulnerability, which is the neck," Yang Jun's voice was resounding. "In the recent battle, two monsters were killed by firearms. I checked them out, and both had been shot in the neck. Additionally, the monster killed by your sister was also stabbed in the neck with a sharp weapon and died from that wound."

"I see," Shen Hao's eyes lit up.

Not just him, but also the other two showed looks of delight.

Having a fatal weakness was undoubtedly tremendous good news!

They had just learned from the records that a monster had been hit by a heavy sniper rifle and had not died, which was indeed terrifying.

"But," Yang Jun's voice lowered a bit, "aiming for the neck, after all, is difficult since it's a small target, and not easy to hit in combat. Moreover, it's easily protected, as these monsters tend to shield their neck with blood during fights."

"No matter, knowing the weakness means there's always a way to target it," Shen Hao seemed quite confident.

"We can have the weapons research institute design some specific weapons," Chen Sihui suggested at this moment. "Not just for targeting the neck, there are many ways to counteract the blood. For instance, certain special chemicals, or we could consider burning, freezing, and even using sound, electric current, microwaves, and the like."

"That's exactly what I was going to mention next," Shen Hao nodded. "Everything you mentioned can be found in the system mall for Chosen Ones."

"Chosen Ones have a system mall too?" The three of them were surprised again.

Rewards were enough, but there is also a mall?

"Correct." Shen Hao opened his Chosen One panel once more.

Right now, while the cheat panel was in progress, the cheats wouldn't work, but the official platform could be of assistance as well!

After all, that's the real way to face the Civilization Trial.

The cheats are nothing more than exploiting loopholes to take advantage of the official system.

By now, Shen Hao had accumulated a staggering number of points.

—9724!

Yes, the recent battle had awarded him over nine thousand points!

When Shen Hao saw this number, he too was startled. After counting, he realized that each monster roughly provided him with about two hundred points.

Taking into account the first three slain and the points Qiuyue had obtained, he could come to a preliminary conclusion.

In terms of earning points, conquering or controlling monsters yielded more than personally killing them, which in turn was more than being forced to commit suicide under threat.

This system was practically throwing money at him, given his Talent!

The only slight regret was that under the current level of the mall, there were only White Level 1 products available, the most expensive of which was just over fourteen hundred points.

It was a dagger with a dark sheen, cursed with potent dark magic, which Shen Hao had already purchased.

It would perfectly complement the use of Telekinesis.

Besides, various high-tech futuristic weapons were all listed there.

Such as flamethrowers, freeze guns, ultrasonic concussion grenades...

With prices generally around a hundred points, Shen Hao bought over a dozen different types in one go.

With a wave of his hand, the table was immediately filled with these items.

Chen Sihui's eyes practically sparkled.

She had been fond of weapons from the start and now possessed the Talent "Skillful Hand." Seeing any formidable weapon made her long to touch it, not to mention those in front of her, all representing high-tech from the near future.

With just a simple glance, she could ascertain they were at least thirty years ahead of their current weapons technology!

And many parts were made from special materials, making the degree of advancement even greater.

They were not limited to weapons; the applications were incredibly broad!

"As long as you have points, you can buy the design blueprints for these weapons as well as the formulas for the materials," Shen Hao's mouth curved into a smile, as though he was laughing. "Let's first see which are effective, which can be replicated quickly, then mass-produce and equip them rapidly, to give those monsters a taste of the human species' war potential!"

"Absolutely!" Yang Jun was undoubtedly the most excited, "Let those monsters witness it!"

As a military Soldier, his desire was for the military to play a role.

Not to rely solely on the Chosen Ones.

After all, protecting the country was their mission!

"Our civilization has always been in a state of war from the earliest recordings," Chen Sihui was all smiles, her big eyes turning into crescent moons.

Even Gong Dong laughed, shaking his head, "Violence is one of our inherent traits."

Clearly, facing such monsters that silently replace your family members and disguise themselves to interact with you, no one would have any mercy.

Peace?

They all wished to employ the most effective and rapid means to completely exterminate these creatures in human disguise!

This was a species war, with no right or wrong, no peace, just a struggle for survival!

"Eliminating monsters doesn't just reward points," Shen Hao looked back at the others and continued, "There are also some drops. I've gotten a total of six items, with roughly a one in eight chance, and three of them are ability balls."

As he spoke, he lifted his hand and three hazy, glowing White Ability Balls appeared before them.

They instantly captured the attention of the three.

After becoming Chosen Ones, there were three empty ability slots below their panels.

They didn't know what they were for at first, but seeing these ability balls now, they instantly understood!
