Consuming lifespan to draw rewards, I'm invincible in the apocalypse!

Strictly speaking, it's actually a method—

"It's about using the upgrade life card!"

"There are two ways to obtain an upgraded Destiny Card!"

"The first method is relatively simple: use a blue or higher grade wheel to draw prizes."

"Of course, the wheel itself must have the 'Upgrade Fate Card' option to draw it."

Luo Shan was shocked when he heard this: "A roulette wheel of blue grade or higher, wouldn't that consume at least 100 years of lifespan?!"

"Spending 100 years of your lifespan just to level up once... This is... this is too surreal!"

Gao Chang nodded in deep agreement: "When I heard the news, I had the same thought as you!"

"But then I thought, maybe poverty limits our imagination? Perhaps for those powerful figures, a hundred years of lifespan is nothing!"

"Anyway, for us level 0 players, this first method is not simple either!"

"As for the second approach, that's even more difficult!"

"Do you know where the Expendables' high mortality rate comes from?"

Luo Shan quickly guessed from his words: "Is it related to the second approach?"

"That's right!"

"At this stage, our entire Jiangcheng area is isolated in a vast ocean!"

"In addition, all the lakes, rivers, and even a single pond in Jiangcheng have become channels for the invasion of ferocious beasts!"

"The ferocious beasts can use these passages to invade our world, and we can also use those passages to launch a counterattack against the beast world!"

"According to Brother Liao, who told me all this, the world of ferocious beasts is full of endless dangers, but also endless opportunities!"

"There, even without participating in the lottery, you might still get an upgraded life token!"

"Including Brother Liao, he was also a member of the suicide squad before! It was during an exploration of the ferocious beast world that he accidentally obtained an upgrade life token, which increased his level and opened the door to a new world, making him a formal member of the club!"

"And Brother Liao also told me not to be discouraged!"

"Although the suicide squad has the word 'suicide' in its name, its mortality rate is indeed high."

"But every member of the suicide squad is actually a prospective member of the club!"

"Compared to those tumorous worms that are destined to die of old age, joining the suicide squad is the only real chance to defy fate!"

Gao Chang spoke with great passion, and Luo Shan listened with great enthusiasm.

Only Jiang Yi, who had truly experienced it, remained exceptionally calm.

Because he knew that the "Brother Liao" that Gao Chang was talking about was just making empty promises to him!

Or rather, the entire club was just making empty promises to the members of the suicide squad!

A world of ferocious beasts?

In later generations, that place was actually called the Realm Battlefield!

According to later players' summaries, even in the lowest-level Realm Battlefield, players need to be at least level 5 to have the most basic survival skills!

But now?

A level 0 player actually dares to explore the Realm Battlefield!

What else can you call this if not "daring to die"?!

Of course, perhaps in the more distant future.

For example, a hundred years from now, some history teachers might tell their students this:

A century ago, when the apocalypse game first arrived, it was countless predecessors and martyrs who explored the battlefield with their blood, which made us who we are today!

The suicide squad that dares to explore the battlefield at level 0 may become the brave and fearless martyrs described in future history books!

As time goes by, these most ordinary people may be romanticized by history.

It's a pity that it's just beautification.

Not a single name will be left behind.

With a sigh in their hearts, Gao Chang, who was leading the way, had already brought the two of them to the entrance of a villa.

It was getting dark, and Gao Chang lowered his voice unconsciously: "This is the villa of my team."

"The team originally had seven people, but now with the two of you, there are nine of us."

As they talked, the three of them went into the villa.

The villa was quiet and there was no movement.

In the living room on the first floor, a muscular man was doing push-ups next to the sofa.

Luo Shan was a smooth talker. Seeing that the burly man seemed quite powerful, he couldn't resist going up to greet him and try to get closer to him.

However, before he could take any action, Gao Chang pulled him back.

"Well, let me take you two to your rooms first."

Gao Chang's voice was still somewhat low as he led the two up to the fourth floor of the villa.

The room he assigned to Jiang Yi was a walk-in closet that was only five or six square meters.

Luo Shan was assigned a study room of eight or nine square meters.

At the same time, he also instructed the two, "The members of the suicide squad are not as easy to talk to as I am. If you don't have anything to do, don't bother them."

Luo Shan found it strange: "Shouldn't we get to know each other with the existing members?"

Gao Chang felt embarrassed upon hearing this.

Because that's what he said to the other members when he first joined the suicide squad.

Just like before the apocalypse, when a new member joins a new group, they always have to introduce themselves, right?

But when he resorted to his pre-apocalyptic methods, trying to get to know the members and build relationships,

The other members, however, remained indifferent.

One of his friends bluntly asked him, "Is it necessary for dead people to know each other?"

That's a very cruel statement.

But it's also very real.

Because the guy who said that died the next day...

Gao Chang did not intend to tell Luo Shan such cruel words.

He thought for a moment, then put on a bit of the airs of a captain and said in a pretentious tone, "Members of the suicide squad need to spend time proving their strength before they are qualified to get to know each other."

Luo Shan didn't think much of it.

Jiang Yi, however, knew that the correct way to say Gao Chang's words should be—

Members of the suicide squad need to prove they can survive before they can get to know each other.

Otherwise, they wouldn't bother getting to know a dead person!

Gao Chang gave the two some more instructions and told them about the team's mission at 9 a.m. the next day before leaving.

After he left, Luo Shan pulled Jiang Yi aside and whispered:

"Don't you think the atmosphere in our suicide squad is a bit strange? It's kind of oppressive..."

Jiang Yi glanced at him and said calmly, "If you live to see a few more days, you'll probably feel just as depressed."

Upon hearing this, Luo Shan's heart skipped a beat.

He couldn't help but feel a little regretful...

Was joining the Expendables really the right decision?

Just then, he suddenly heard Jiang Yi's voice again:

"Luo Shan, do you want to defy fate?"

?

Luo Shan uses the phrase "defying fate" almost every day.

And those cancerous parasites in the underground parking garage have mocked him more than once because of this.

So when Luo Shan heard Jiang Yi suddenly say this, he subconsciously thought that Jiang Yi was also mocking him.

Years later, Luo Shan would often recall this moment and Jiang Yi's words.

Whenever he thinks back, he can't help but sigh—

He, who constantly proclaimed his desire to defy fate, was completely unaware of what was happening at the time...

The gears of his destiny began to turn from this moment!
