after falling asleep

Chapter 502 76. Despair and Planning

"Oh hoo!"

A member stepped under the ashes, the unburned charcoal, and exclaimed from the heat.The companion on the side stretched out his hand to hold him, and continued to move forward.

Sparsely erected charcoal proves that this place was once a forest, with scorched branches struggling to support the charcoal, pointing to the gloomy sky.

A group of people are like ascetic monks, walking in this world of only black and gray, and a line of footprints stretches behind them.

Everyone was embarrassed and unkempt, and there were less than 40 people in the team of nearly 30 people.

It was early morning and the temperature was very low.As they walked, there was a faint puff of breath from their mouths and noses.

The weather is getting cold.

Fortunately, there is no shortage of coal in the burning ground. You can light a fire to keep warm when you are resting. You can simply drill into the thick ashes on the ground when you sleep to keep your body temperature from losing.

You can try your luck with food, you can always find charred mutated corpses, and you can barely eat the inside of the scorched black shell.

Only the water source is a problem.There is no water here, and there is no word associated with water.

This group of people had bloodshot eyes and chapped lips.

The stream was on its way, and perhaps should have turned back, but they hadn't lasted two days.

They have been walking in one direction for two days, maybe the direction is wrong, maybe the fire is too big, they still haven't left the burning place.

As time goes by, the temperature gradually rises.The fire with limited light became brighter—although it was still gloomy.

Even though it was so hard, no one complained.A group of people walked silently on this ashes that seemed to have no scenery and no end. After an unknown amount of time passed, the companions in front of them suddenly stopped.

Looking forward, the team stopped.

Joyce had something to say.

The team formed a circle, and they watched Joyce silently.

"There are still 6 days before winter, and 6 days before the mission completion deadline. I'm not sure how big the fire is, and I'm not sure if we can get out of here before we get dehydrated."

Joyce's expression remained calm, and no emotion could be seen from his eyes.

"From now on, teams of five will separate and radiate in three directions except Hale City."

A scheme of luck.

Chen Yue's voice was obscure, and she opened her mouth: "How do we get in touch?"

"No need to contact." Joyce looked at her: "Priority is to find the gathering point and try to occupy it. If the main task fails, we will die."

"If the main task is completed, we will meet at the burning place. Those who complete the task will send someone to pick us up. Who has any questions?"

The crowd shook their heads.

A life-and-death plan was made just like that.Everyone returned to their respective squads, and the reduced squad merged with other squads.After a few minutes, the group greeted each other, formed a fan shape, and dispersed in three directions.

The teams are fast and slow, the fast ones are in a hurry, and the slow ones are not for safety, but because they are going to be unable to hold on.

The situation is more difficult than imagined.

……

The torches and bonfires that can be seen everywhere fill the cave with bright fire.Large and small holes are opened on the stone walls on both sides as their resting places.

Musu stepped on the halo, with a golden sword hilt stuck above his head, and under the fanatical and pious gazes of the crowd, he walked to his seat in the innermost part of the cave.

A throne made of bones,
As the first god to appear, this group of members let Mu Su sit on the middle god seat.Around him, there are more than [-] sacred seats lined up in a row, but they are all empty, and some have not yet been piled up.

That is to say, these goods believe in more than 20 gods.

Looking haughtily at the kneeling figures, Mu Su cleared his throat: "Which one of you has the final say."

In the silence, an old bald high priest climbed up to the wooden platform with a trembling and respectful voice: "Your most loyal servant Kratos is here."

Mu Su was so frightened that his hands shook, he looked at the old man carefully, and shouted at the top of his voice, "Come here, drag this one down and burn him."

I saw that the old man was not only not afraid, but trembling with excitement, he kept shouting: "Thank you, my lord!"

The surrounding members also showed envy. Their eyes followed several young people who picked up the old man and walked to the middle of the cave to the stake. They piled firewood and lit it in one go.

Looks like they've been doing this for a long time.

The raging flames ignited, and Kratos' figure was looming, only the sound of praise came from it, and there was no movement after a while.

The hidden dangers were eliminated, and this group of guys with ten to one sane values ​​had no resistance to their own charm.

Mu Su waved his hand, calling for the middle-aged man who was the one who was the most dedicated escort when he escaped from the Lindsay Wetland, pretending to be Payne.

"You will be the High Priest from now on."

The middle-aged Payne showed ecstasy, and began to make intimate contact with the ground with his head.

Fearing that he would also be crushed to death, Mu Su raised his hand to stop him, and talked about the business.

"Let me ask you how many people are still in the camp."

"A lot." The middle-aged Payne's answer made Mu Su want to beat him up.

But Musu kept the utmost restraint and refined the question: "I mean the specific number of people."

The high priest got up in a hurry and ran down to check the number of people.After ten minutes of messing around, he ran back: "814 members and a dozen people who haven't finished eating yet."

Musu was furious, and the golden headgear turned into an antenna according to his mood, and he slapped the armrest heavily: "What a waste! It took so long to gather this group of members!"

The high priest trembled all over, and lowered his head deeply, not daring to make a sound.

Mu Su snorted coldly: "I don't care if you plan to burn or eat the remaining people, no one is allowed to move from now on, do you hear me?"

There was an answer in the cave.

Mu Su was quite satisfied, and asked the high priest, "Who was the first to discover me?"

The high priest replied respectfully: "It's Griffin. Seeing you perform miracles, he feared that you would be deceived by those people without faith, and brought his subordinates to rescue you. He had already returned to the embrace of our Lord to protect you. "

Mu Su was thoughtful.

In order to maintain the majesty of the god, Mu Su has been sitting on the throne of the god.Bearing the pious gazes from time to time, as well as dozens of prayer members who refused to disperse under the wooden platform.

In less than an hour, he witnessed several members taking the initiative to burn themselves to the stake to return to the embrace of God.

The root cause of why there are so few people in Camp Ember has been found.

Musu called the high priest, and said earnestly: "I didn't say that you have this problem, you need to change it. What's the problem with spontaneous combustion at every turn? It's easy to scare the little friends, even if it doesn't scare the little friends and burns Huahua. Grass is not good either."

"what do you mean……"

Mu Su said viciously: "No one is allowed to die without my order!"

Afterwards, in order to make Joyce and the others woo hoo, Mu Su spent several hours carefully formulating an ingenious plan for attacking the Lindsay Wetland, which was sure to fail.

At dusk outside, the members were summoned by the high priest, and Mu Su had something to say.

"first!"

Mu Su looked around the audience, and Jin Guang transformed into a huge Pikachu phantom behind him to increase his power.

"No one is allowed to die without my permission!"

"Then... think of a way to attack Lindsay Wetlands, and hit his mother!"

"Finally, the purpose this time is to rob people. Whoever dares to commit suicide or kill people, I will kill you before you die!"
