Lord Game: Awakening The Legendary Multiplier From The Start - Chapter 13
It was the next day.
Liao Fan looked out of the window. The surrounding was gradually falling into darkness.
He accessed the regional chat.
There were tons of messages!
[ Number Of People Online: 712 ]
Originally, this region had one thousand people.
Now, there were only seven hundred and twelve left.
This meant that at the end of the first day, two hundred and eighty-eight people had died.
‘Such a high body count!’
In fact, as time passed, the death toll would continue to gradually increase.
Hunger, diseases, natural disasters, and more would claim more lives.
Those who chatted on the regional channel would have their names and gender displayed.
Meng Fei (Male): Everyone, I have returned safely! As long as you have a torch, there’s nothing to worry about. The monsters can only move in the fog. I wandered around with my torch and no danger befell me!
Meng Fei (Male): But you must remember that one torch will only last three minutes!
Liu Nan (Male): Wow! Boss Meng Fei is really awesome!
Fang Lan (Female): Boss Meng Fei, do you have an extra bed? I want to move in with you.
Ye Chunya (Female): Boss Meng Fei, would you come over to my place? I’ve made a torch but I’m too scared to go out.
Meng Fei (Male): Hahaha, I only took two steps outside. I dared not go too far. It’s rather embarrassing. If I get any other information, I’ll share it with all of you.
There was a trading tab in the regional channel as well.
However, Liao Fan did not want to trade in the regional channel.
For the time being, he wanted to keep a low profile.
Although he had brought back a large number of resources, he had no plans of showing them off.
Furthermore, this was the regional channel!
It meant that these people were in the same region as him!
They were probably not too far away.
The region was only as big as thirty football fields.
If he had a car, he could cover the whole region within half a day.
Humans could be very unpredictable and Liao Fan may have a hard time dealing with them!
Moreover, the resources were limited!
Naturally, Liao Fan had no idea how many people were close to him.
It could be one or two.
Perhaps even ten!
Liao Fan dared not come up with a baseless conclusion!
Even if they were not in the same region, he would not take the risk.
Under such circumstances, it was better to wait until those who were weak die off.
The fewer people left, the better it would be.
If Liao Fan traded even a glass of water, the other party might survive and become his enemy in the future!
After all, he was not a saint.
He would definitely prioritize his own life over others.
Besides, they were all strangers.
For now, he just needed to observe and monitor the situation.
He needed to find out who was in his surroundings.
That information was crucial.
…
Meng Fei had made a torch on the first day.
Without a doubt, other people in other regions would have also done the same.
Making a torch was not difficult.
One might need a few tries, but they would eventually succeed.
The bottom line was if a person had the courage to step out of the cottage.
Of course, it was terrifying!
Courage and vitality were indispensable.
There was no point bragging in the regional or world channel.
After thinking for a while, Liao Fan sent a message on the regional chat.
Liao Fan (Male): Big Brother Meng Fei, did you discover anything at the entrance of the cottage?”
Meng Fei (Male): Sorry, all I discovered were some crushed stones. It felt like something in the fog was watching me. I was scared so I rushed back inside. Seriously, this is so embarrassing.”
Liu Nan (Male): Brother Meng Fei, you’re awesome! You have such sharp senses. I think you’re right. There must be something in that fog. It was what killed my villagers!”
…
‘Crushed stones?!’
Liao Fan’s expression darkened.
As expected, Meng Fei and the others were probably not too far away from him!
Their vision was probably just disrupted by the fog.
These people would become his competitors in the future!
In a game, there could only be one winner!
One of the reasons wars happened in the past was because of resources.
There was no choice but to plunder each other.
If a war did break out, Liao Fan had to find a way to guarantee his victory.
This was a survival competition, not a philanthropist contest!
Violence would occur sooner or later!
Liu Fan closed the regional channel.
He began to think about how to maximize the usage of his resources.
Coal was especially important!
Additionally, he felt like he should utilize his daily speaker.
Otherwise, it would just be wasted.
