The apocalypse begins with a dungeon game.

Chapter 189: To be remembered in history, that's so cool!

"Speaking of which, if we actually succeed in making this happen when we go back, won't we be recorded in history, just like those famous figures in history books?"

"To leave a mark on history is so cool! I must make a name for myself in history, so that even my descendants can benefit from it."

"Whenever someone mentions Daishan, they will think of my heroic deeds. Ah... just thinking about it makes me feel that my life has not been in vain."

Upon hearing Daishan speak like that, Zheng He yanked his sleeve aside.

"You're being too profit-driven. This is a great new revolution; how can we care about reputation?"

Daishan and Zhenghe then got into a heated discussion.

The main point is that Zheng He said he was too snobbish and didn't respect the cause.

Daishan then retorted that he was pretentious and unrealistic, and that he was mentally challenged and had problems.

Shen Dachuan, who had somehow broken free from their grasp, was standing next to Li Can.

The two men watched the round-robin debate between Daishan and Zhenghe across from them and couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache.

Young people are great in every way, except they are prone to getting carried away by their emotions.

Once out of control, it's like a wild horse that can't be pulled back even by ten people.

Shen Dachuan was the first to take the pass from Li Can. "Peach Blossom, although you don't ask us to do anything, as descendants of the Chinese nation, we will not stand idly by when we know who and what caused the fate of mankind."

"You saved my life today, but this life is no longer my own."

"After I get out, I will try my best to secretly develop the survivor forces in my area."

"Saving the world can't be left entirely to you alone. We should also get a share of the glory and be heroes too."

Li Can observed that their behavior and words differed greatly from his previous predictions.

Humans have always sought advantage and avoided harm.

He didn't have any particular expectations after he told him that he could receive the pass without any requirements.

Li Can had even prepared several ways to destroy the pass in advance.

If they simply take the card and prepare to leave, trying to protect themselves and remaining silent about the pseudo-human invasion and apocalypse of Earth, he will use the items he drew from the gashapon machine last time to erase their memories of the broadcast footage they once saw on the screen.

Then they actually sent them back to Earth.

It's not too wasteful.

He can understand the choices everyone makes.

At least in this instance of the game, they really helped me do a lot of things outside of my busy schedule.

Li Can planned to send them off like this as a way of repaying them.

After all, even if he didn't give the card away, he would destroy it in the instance space and would definitely not take it out to Earth in the timeline ten years later.

If they are despondent and have no will to live, then he respects their fate.

Li Can also considered whether they would choose to join his camp and work together to save that blue and pure planet.

No matter how you look at it, the probability of giving up is greater than joining. For ordinary people, it is already difficult enough to take care of themselves in the apocalypse.

Moreover, Li Can understood even more when she heard about their reasons and motivations for choosing to enter this dungeon vortex.

But the current situation on the field has developed in a way that has taken him somewhat by surprise.

"You mean... you've all decided to join the effort to save Earth?" Li Can asked the three of them again.

"That's right." x3

Welcome to the fantastical world of science fiction! The entrance is here:

The three people opposite them, each holding a black pass card, responded in unison.

"You don't have any superpowers at all. How are you going to organize the other survivors and fight against those alien pseudo-humans? Aren't you afraid of dying?" Li Can asked patiently.

Daishan said in a serious tone, "We've all died once before. Going back this time is like being reborn and killing fake humans in the apocalypse."

Have you ever read a long, fast-paced, action-packed novel on Qidian, where you're unstoppable, leveling up all the way through?

Li Can: "..."

Although he hadn't seen much of it, he still had some understanding of it.

"Novels are novels, and life is life. They are different after all. Since you can exchange them for a second chance at life, you might as well live for yourselves this time."

"Peach Blossom, what will Blue Star be like in ten years? We've seen the videos you posted on the forum. Have you thought about how long we can live even if we just try to survive?" Shen Dachuan clenched his fist.

"When you released the video before, the survivors, including yourself, did not know the truth about the extinction of humanity and the destruction of Earth; they only saw the result."

"But now we know perfectly well who the parasites are and where the disease comes from. Why should we be cowards? The right way is to find the false people, locate their lair, and exterminate them!"

Zheng He: "That's right. So what if we're unarmed? We have countless ordinary people. If the superhumans can make knives, we can make AI."

"Everyone can accomplish a lot by leveraging their individual abilities and relying solely on their own strength."

"What's truly frightening is that we might be murdered without even knowing who the killer is, and our deaths would be shrouded in mystery."

"I believe that after you leave the instance and officially announce on the forum the fact that the pseudo-humans invaded Earth and caused the extinction of humanity, I dare not say that all the descendants of the Chinese nation will not allow them to run rampant."

Li Can deliberately asked them those rhetorical questions.

The goal is to stir up their emotions; what people say when they're not thinking rationally is often the truth.

Li Can was gratified that they could still stay true to themselves under such circumstances, and it was as if he had not wasted his time on them.

A touch of emotion welled up in Li Can's heart. During this dungeon, he kept thinking about one thing.

That is, "saving Earth and the survival of humanity" has never been his responsibility alone.

He was just the pioneer they described.

Carrying a small flame, I walked through the pitch-black night, past extinguished streetlights, passing many pedestrians along the way.

With this tiny flame, I lit a lamp. Some pedestrians got separated from me, while others stayed behind, sharing the new flame and moving on in other directions.

Until one street was brightly lit.

Until one area was brightly lit.

Until the whole world was lit up.

"Alright, the Blue Star Defense Alliance welcomes you. From now on, we are teammates on the same front!" The autumn wind swept away the gloom on Li Can's face.

He was happy and fortunate that the pedestrians he was encountering on the street were kindred spirits.

Daishan: "Hahaha, when you tied us up in the ground before, I heard you guys come up with this group name, which was so cringeworthy. I didn't expect you to actually stick with it."

Shen Dachuan: "I don't think it's chuunibyou (a Japanese term for someone with delusions of grandeur); it's quite fitting, and you could even exaggerate it a bit more to get it fired up."

Zheng He: "These are all formalities, they're not important. What's important is that we can't waste any more of our leader's time. Before he leaves, comrades, we need to quickly discuss the implementation plan after we leave the instance."
