Infinite Terror: I Have a Chat Group

Chapter 23 The Spear of Lightning!

Around 11 a.m. the next day, everyone had arrived at the Main God Square. Zhan Lan and Li Xiaoyi also brought their creations. Everyone looked serious and dared not be careless about the horror movie that was about to start.

Zhang Jie packed his personal belongings, putting everything he needed into his pockets, and then said to the group, "Although it hasn't been long, we've covered the basics. Remember this from those horror movies: anything can happen. We have absolutely no safety guarantees. Even with Zheng Zha and Lin Yu here, we must still be extremely careful!"

"That's right. Although Zheng Zha and I have both undergone physical mutation enhancements, we can't guarantee our own survival, let alone the survival of others. So we must be extremely careful. Also, regarding newcomers, we should follow the previous agreement. Those who are suitable can be used as reserve members, while those who are unsuitable or even pose a threat to the team should be eliminated without hesitation."

Zhan Lan and Li Xiaoyi were clearly still hesitant, while Zheng Zha nodded silently. Lin Yu didn't say anything more. They were all just ordinary people, and this kind of awareness couldn't be achieved just by talking about it, even for Lin Yu himself.

As you gain more experience and your mindset changes, enlightenment will naturally follow.

"Lin Yu, I have about 300 reward points left. How should I use them?"

Over the past ten days, Zheng Zha spent about six or seven hundred points on the Heavenly Treasures and Earthly Treasures. At Lin Yu's suggestion, he exchanged for several technological weapons and still had three hundred reward points left.

"Three hundred points? That's enough. Search for the 'Lightning Spear' magic scroll."

At Lin Yu's suggestion, everyone exchanged for one or two submachine guns, while Lin Yu exchanged for an additional heavy machine gun and a heavy sniper rifle. In terms of technological weapons, they already had enough.

"A spear of lightning? A one-time use magic scroll?"

Zheng Zha searched for "Thunder Spear" and found that it was a one-time magic scroll worth 300 reward points.

"Well, given our team's situation, the next horror movie is unlikely to be a high-difficulty ghost movie, but just in case, we still need to be prepared. Although the 'Thunder Spear' is only worth 300 points, because it is a one-time use item, its power is no less than that of science fiction weapons, and it can be used as another trump card for us."

Lin Yu began to explain.

"Is that so? Then we have another trump card."

Zheng Zha laughed and exchanged for the 'Thunder Spear' without hesitation.

Seeing this, Lin Yu nodded in approval. The reason he had Zheng Zha exchange for the one-time magic scroll "Thunder Spear" was certainly not as simple as dealing with ghosts and monsters or increasing his trump cards.

The next horror movie will most likely be Alien 1. Even if it's not Alien 1 but a ghost movie, the 'Melting Gun' as an energy weapon will still be effective. Spending 300 reward points to exchange for the 'Thunder Spear' scroll is actually not as good as exchanging for a 'Melting Gun' battery. After all, a battery can fire the gun 20 times, while a magic scroll can only be used once.

The main reason why Lin Yu wanted Zheng Zha to exchange for this magic scroll was that Lin Yu wanted to help Zheng Zha.

In the original story, Zheng Zha was copied into the Demon Team, which led to his tragic fate. Lin Yu naturally wanted to help as much as he could.

First, we need to confirm when Zheng Zha was cloned. In the original work, it is said that after Zheng Zha created the loli, his survival instinct exploded and his potential increased, so he was cloned. However, judging from the fact that Zheng Zha's storage ring was stolen in the original work, he was not cloned immediately after creating the loli. It is more likely that he was cloned the moment he entered Alien 1.

Zheng Zha is much stronger than in the original story thanks to Lin Yu's intervention, but it's hard to say whether he can avoid that fate. That's why Lin Yu has prepared this trump card for Zheng Zha.

The 'Lightning Spear' was a magic scroll that Lin Yu had been searching for a long time. Taking magic in the magic network system as an example, first and second-level magic is D-level magic. One-time magic scrolls are very cheap, costing only a few dozen reward points, while the 'Lightning Spear' costs as much as 300 points, equivalent to a B-level fifth or sixth-level magic. It is also the most powerful single-target magic of its level.

Moreover, as the name suggests, this magic is of the lightning attribute, and it has a strong restraining effect on negative energy creatures such as vampires. As long as the opponent has not reached the fourth rank, this magic is extremely threatening.

In some ways, these one-time magic scrolls are more cost-effective than high-tech weapons. Of course, like high-tech weapons, they have the same drawbacks: if you don't strengthen yourself, you will inevitably suffer the consequences in the mid-to-late game, so you can't rely on them.

......

After Zheng Zha used up his reward points, the others also cleared out their remaining reward points and bought some essential items. Then, they handed over items that were difficult to carry, such as heavy weapons, to Lin Yu so that he could put them in his personal shop.

Lin Yu had already revealed his personal storage space long ago, so there was no need to hide it. However, as usual, Lin Yu did not mention the origin of his personal storage space.

"By the way, you guys don't know this yet, but we're not the only team in the Main God Space."

Just as they were waiting for the horror movie to start, Lin Yu suddenly spoke up.

"Are we not the only team?"

Zheng Zha was quite puzzled, as were the others. Only Zhang Jie was taken aback for a moment, but quickly covered it up.

"That's right. There are quite a few teams like ours in the God Space. They are divided by region, so we are all Chinese. We will definitely meet other teams in the future, so we should be prepared."

"This kind of encounter is unlikely to be amicable, is it?"

"I guessed," Zhan Lan guessed.

"Of course, there are many things that are not convenient to discuss in detail right now, but I can tell you that killing members of other teams yields enormous rewards. Therefore, when two teams meet, unless their strengths are evenly matched and they are wary of each other, it will absolutely be a fight to the death!"

"So, we not only have to fight monsters from horror movies, but also watch out for other teams stabbing us in the back?"

"Indeed, driven by huge profits, when different teams meet, it is destined to be a fierce battle."

Upon hearing this, the group couldn't help but sigh. Survival in horror movies is already difficult enough, but now they also have to fight against other teams, making it seem even more challenging.

"Besides being divided by region, there are two special teams: the Celestial Team, composed of team captains, and the Demon Team, which is made up of members with high potential from each team. Zheng Zha, you have good potential and are very likely to be copied into the Demon Team."

"I can't possibly be copied into the Demon Team. I don't feel like I have high potential."

Zheng Zha waved his hand, not thinking he had much potential at all. He was just an ordinary person who was lucky in the previous horror movie.

"That's hard to say, but the Demon Team isn't a good place. If you really get cloned there, be careful. Don't trust anyone, protect yourself and the little girl. Your own room is the safest place."

Lin Yu's earnest advice to Zheng Zha was the last thing Lin Yu could do for Zheng Zha.

"Oh...I understand."

Seeing Lin Yu's seriousness, Zheng Zha was puzzled, but still replied earnestly.

"By the way, I understand that the Demon Team is composed of high-potential clones, but what does it mean that the Celestial Team is composed of captains?"

Zheng Zha already understood what the Demon Team was all about, but he didn't understand the Celestial Team, so he asked Lin Yu about it.

"As for Team Celestial..."

"The horror movie is about to begin!"

Lin Yu had just opened his mouth when Zhang Jie interrupted him.

When everyone saw the main god square begin to glow, they knew that the teleportation was about to begin, so they quickly made preparations.

Soon, the "God" orb of light in the square became increasingly dazzling, its intense light illuminating the surrounding darkness like the sun. Then, twenty beams of light shot down from it and appeared in the square, and the same voice was heard in everyone's heads.

"Enter the beam of light within thirty seconds, target locked, alien begins teleportation..."

The group exchanged glances and walked straight into the pillar of light. Once inside, everything went black, and they lost consciousness.
