Run Away, This Civilization Is Cheating!

It's no wonder they're all like this.

According to the rules we know so far, the Chosen Ones working together undoubtedly have a much better shot than going at it alone!

It's like clinging to a strong thigh!

And in the whole world, is there a thicker thigh than the one belonging to our team leader in front of us?

One hundred and thirty thousand points in one night!

At least seventy or eighty drops!

Not to mention his own strength, just the efficiency alone, how much Equipment, how many ability balls, how many Treasures?!

They've all realized what a precious opportunity it is to be able to follow Shen Hao so early!

Even starting with just the White Talent, they can quickly widen the Distance between themselves and the other Chosen Ones!

It's impossible not to get excited!

In the face of crisis, there's no one who doesn't want more power!

Even—some, at this moment, are thinking even further.

Like Dong Gong.

He's also excited, joyful, and as he looks at the Chosen Ones beside him gazing at Shen Hao, he's deeply aware of the prestige Shen Hao has accumulated in just one day within this new group.

And not just within this small group.

Power and wealth combined are authority, and if one person holds both, that's real strength in a civilization!

Unless a second Chosen One appears who can compete with him on both fronts, his status and influence are truly unparalleled!

"I'll write when I'm free!" A smart person like Dong Gong naturally understands what a precious opportunity it is for an individual to be with Shen Hao!

The sense of importance soars even further!

"Good!" Shen Hao nodded, and stepping forward, he said, "Let's go and see the people you've brought back."

In reality, when he looked at the many points and drops yesterday, he had some thoughts.

This efficiency cannot be considered as his alone.

Such efficient scoring also depends on the group's efforts.

Assigning personnel, delineating routes, ensuring transportation, dispersing the idlers...

Many people behind the scenes provided a series of support.

Moreover, with the current rules for the Chosen Ones, he alone could never use up this number of points.

In the White Level 3 Store, the highest-priced items cost just over eight thousand points and include a type of "Barrier;" moreover, the best resources for enhancing strength cost just one or two thousand points.

He is currently wearing two Level 3 White Spirit Crystals and has swallowed three "Body Tempering Pills" to increase his Constitution.

He's only used up just over six thousand seven hundred points in total.

It's pointless to use any more before assimilating them.

Unless he upgrades the Store quickly to utilize better resources.

The excess points can then go towards the "Legion" route.

On one hand, increasing the strength of civilization to better face the Civilization Trials and on the other hand, also carving out more channels for himself to gain points.

The Store Level is determined by the "total points gained"!

"After all, points can't be used directly for leveling up or building up personal strength," Shen Hao sighed somewhat unsatisfied in his heart.

He glanced at his own panel at that moment.

[Constitution: 12]

[Spirit: 15]

[Transcendent: 8]

Because of his Talent, he has a strong grasp over his own abilities, so he's more aware of his own changes; each increase in these three values is approximately a 1.2 times enhancement.

```

His abilities had all improved more than twofold since he first became a Chosen One!

Moreover, when he continuously used his Talent at night, the speed of his strength improvement was even faster.

"Gaining abilities, using resources, and exercising should be the current way for Chosen Ones to enhance their strength," Shen Hao concluded in his heart.

Just then, their group had also arrived at the playground.

Since they had only taken care of a circle of key suspects last night, the number of people actually brought back wasn't too high, roughly around seven to eight thousand.

But at this moment, there were some growing disturbances in the plaza.

It wasn't due to Shen Hao's arrival but because of changes on the internet.

As day broke and the number of online users increased, more and more news from abroad started to wildly spread on the internet.

On various social media platforms, countless people were frantically posting messages.

"Fuck, I wake up, and the entire foreign scene's in chaos!"

"Everyone be careful of every person around you! There are monsters!"

"Real-life Werewolf game?!"

"I have a video, if you want resources, add me."

"Chosen Ones and monsters! How did the world turn out like this, how are we ordinary people supposed to live?!"

"A word of advice to everyone, hurry up and buy food and daily necessities, then hide by yourself, don't be with anyone!"

"I can't trust anyone anymore!"

"If there are monsters among us here, spare my life please!"

"I am a monster, tip me fifty, and my brothers will spare you."

"..."

Clearly, even though the mainstream media was still silent, they could no longer control the spread of information with internet censorship.

Even though many people still thought it was merely a joke, a farce, or even a publicity stunt for some movie, as the number of circulated messages increased, especially after the spread of that initial video, more and more people started believing it and fell into a state of panic.

And the people in front of Shen Hao were, without a doubt, the most seriously affected!

Most people had only heard the news, but they had witnessed the existence of monsters with their own eyes!

"A small town of eight thousand people! All monsters?"

"How many are around us?"

"Don't come over here, everyone stay the hell away! Don't blame me for being rude if you come close!"

"I want to leave, let us go!"

"These soldiers have already turned into monsters, don't trust them!"

"Let's break out!"

"..."

The unrest was expanding non-stop, and fear was also spreading rapidly among the crowd. Moreover, quite a few people took out their phones and started live streaming. There were too many for the streams to be completely blocked, which drew even more online attention to the scene.

The hashtag #MonstersInDonghuaCity# rapidly climbed the trending lists in a short amount of time.

This seemed to give a huge outlet to the surging traffic, as countless people focused their attention here.

In just a short while, the situation had developed beyond expectation.

"What's the word from above?" Shen Hao asked, turning his head towards Dong Gong.

"They're preparing to go public now, and they're making preparations," Dong Gong was also closely monitoring changes in internet opinion, "But given the current situation, our location might become the center of the event."

"After all, this is where the Blood Demon was first discovered and likewise the first official battlefield against the Blood Demon," Shen Hao had anticipated this kind of scenario.

Other places probably hadn't even finished assembling their Chosen One teams yet.

And they had already achieved significant results in the first battle.

From this perspective, they were indeed at the forefront of the nation.
