The apocalypse begins with a dungeon game.

The semi-transparent black monster still clinging to Fang Yi sensed the arrival of Li Can and Lin Wanyan behind him, and turned around to face them.

As a result, it did not expect that it would be surrounded by several zombies.

The number one puppet zombie bit into his neck, and black blood flowed incessantly.

The second puppet zombie is skilled at spraying venom, and after several previous battles, she has accumulated a sufficient amount of toxic liquid in her body.

A thick, dark green, highly corrosive substance was sprayed all over its face.

Suddenly, a monstrous roar filled the office.

This move seemed to have angered it, so the monster abandoned Fang Yi and pounced fiercely towards Li Can.

"Holy crap!"

Li Can was surprised that this thing wasn't stupid; it could see who the mastermind was and knew to capture the leader first.

He is now penniless and his combat weaknesses are obvious; only a puppet can take his place.

Several zombies, under his control, quickly blocked his path. Li Can dodged out through the doorway.

"Watch out, Reporter Zhou!" Lin Wanyan saw that the monster was attracted to Li Can and started fighting with him, so she quickly grabbed a roll of hemostatic bandage and ran into the house to wrap it around Fang Yi's neck.

This temporary hemostasis could slightly delay his death, and seeing this, Li Can felt relieved.

He couldn't afford to make a losing deal. If Fang Yi had died, he might as well have grabbed Lin Wanyan and run away as soon as he opened the door.

He might not be as good at fighting now, but he has thoroughly researched how to escape from Wenxin Mental Hospital.

The route and the window are all clearly marked. I have vultures that I can take directly to the sky, so I'm not afraid.

Just as they were thinking this, the monster unleashed a burst of intense energy that sent all the zombie puppets around it flying.

Suddenly, the entire room was filled with zombies missing limbs, and thick blood blood left countless works of art on the white walls like ink wash paintings.

"Pfft." Li Can had a strong mental connection with the puppets. After the zombie was severely injured, he also vomited a mouthful of blood instantly.

The monster paused for a moment, then turned to look at the listless Li Can and delivered a heavy punch to him.

[You are under deadly threat. Your critical condition level has reached 2400 points. The points have been credited to your account.]

In a daze, this sentence popped into Li Can's mind.

"What is the near-death value?" he wondered.

But reality showed him what it really was the next second.

The monster's punch slammed him into the concrete wall, where he couldn't be pried out.

He could feel his life slipping away rapidly.

"It seems like I'm going to die..."

Through his blurred vision, the monster once again gathered its strength, preparing to attack him.

Li Can hurriedly used the last of his conscious mind to check the thing that had just appeared in his mind: [2400 points of near-death value].

"What exactly is it for! Tell me!" He was anxious, but ever since he transmigrated here, this cheat system had never given him any clear instructions on how to use it; he had to figure it all out on his own.

Normally, it would be fine to study it slowly, but now that I'm about to die, I have to stick it on the wall and improvise.

The process was incredibly nerve-wracking.

The monster attacked swiftly and without any martial ethics; Li Can's current strength was insufficient to support its control over the vultures and allow it to escape.

One second he was confident, the next he was slapped in the face by reality.

At that moment, some white new regulations suddenly appeared on the start buttons of the gashapon machines in my mind.

The puppet gashapon machine reads: "[Draw once for every 10 points of near-death value]".

The resource gacha machine offers one draw for every 100 points of near-death value.

The supernatural gashapon machine that Li Can had been looking forward to for so long was labeled: [One draw costs 1000 points of near-death value].

A hint of confusion flashed in his eyes. "You can play like this?" he thought. "Luckily, I now have 2400 points, enough to draw at least two more ability eggs."

The timing of this is just awful.

Previously, he had to rely on that puppet to level up in order to get gold coins. He was quite worried at the time, wondering when he would be able to collect so many gold coins.

Now that he has acquired some "near-death value", it is equivalent to giving him another chance.

I just don't know if the previous rules still apply.

I can only try again if I survive and have the chance later.

"Never mind, I'll just take one shot." He made up his mind.

He quickly pressed the button on the gashapon machine, and the critical value that was originally displayed as 2400 points decreased by 1000 points, leaving only 1400 points.

Li Can watched with great anticipation as the eggs tumbled and rolled in the sphere chamber of the machine.

"bite."

A round egg with intricate colorful patterns rolled out of the groove in the small door at the machine's exit.

Li Can spun the gashapon capsule left and right, and in an instant, a golden light enveloped him.

The effects of the Vajra Shield's power are mutual.

[Absolutely robust and durable, it can withstand both physical and unscientific attacks, and upon receiving an attack, it returns 100% of its energy, locking it onto any target. It has a total of 10 uses, and currently has 10 uses remaining.]

"Bang!" The monster's next punch slammed into the Vajra Shield that Li Can suddenly raised from the void.

But in reality, nothing can be seen around Li Can's body; he is completely invisible.

Only he knew that his superpower had taken effect.

"Bang!" At the same time, the monster was hit by its own force, and its body slammed into the wall opposite Li Can, and it couldn't be pried off.

The human and the monster gaze at each other from afar.

The atmosphere was extremely awkward.

Lin Wanyan, who was squatting on the ground treating Fang Yi's wounds, was also dumbfounded.

"Reporter Zhou, are you alright...?"

Li Can looked at his [Diamond Shield], which only had nine uses left, and his expression was complicated.

Well, it's a superpower with limited usage. He had such high hopes, thinking he would become a really awesome superpower user in the future.

With this superpowered egg, wouldn't I be able to take off?

But after all this time, this cheat didn't give him any techniques to improve his own groundedness. If it was just a consumable item, it would be too painful, and he felt heartbroken.

Li Can was also a little flustered.

At this moment, his zombie puppets were all broken and battered, while the monster on the opposite wall was still ferocious, struggling to break free from the wall.

He also completely lost the ability to use his mind to control the puppet.

He felt a deep sense of powerlessness, realizing he was still too weak.

Faced with Lin Wanyan's concern, his left eyelid twitched involuntarily. "What do you think... cough..."

As he spoke, he spat out another mouthful of blood.

Lin Wanyan bandaged Fang Yi's wounds and then dragged him to the corner of the office.

He turned and jogged to Li Can, trying to pull him out of the wall to help him escape.

"Boom!"

Li Can's body, which was stuck in the wall, was visibly loosening. Accompanied by excruciating pain, the cement and steel remnants on both sides of his ribs gradually separated.

At this moment, the half-transparent black humanoid monster broke free from the wall and jumped to the ground. It stood opposite Li Can and Lin Wanyan and stared at them for a long time.

It seems that the force of Li Can's [Diamond Shield] was mutual; the rebounding force left it somewhat dazed.

Now it's actually starting to think.

"Reporter Zhou, what should we do?"

Lin Wanyan grew anxious and pulled harder on Li Can's body, who was still stuck in the wall.
