When Lin Yao was thinking about the importance of increasing revenue and reducing expenditure, Squad Leader Zhang had already spoken.
"Of course you can. Merit points are more useful than you think. As long as there are enough merit points, not to mention energy crystallization, any king-level skill can be used."
During the conversation, another team that Lin Yao didn't recognize walked into the room. This time, in addition to the military, night watchmen, armed police and some people from the gym that Lin Yao was familiar with, there were also some public officials who appeared. .
After they appeared, they immediately confiscated the coins that everyone got after dragging Weird into the haunted house.
Yes, there is a reward after pulling weirdos into the haunted house. The haunted house boss will give you cursed coins, which can be used as tickets or can be used to buy things at the haunted house boss.
Looking at this scene, Lin Yao distracted his thoughts a little.
"If there is not a strong government, this place should be controlled by the strong, and there will be many adventurers coming from outside to take risks, and harvest various props from here like playing dungeons. This place will become a paradise for the strong. "
From this point of view, this is good for Lin Yao. He is a strong man and can get props from it, but this is not the case.
Without the restrictions of the national government, human morality will definitely be so low that it makes people despair. Not to mention other things, after encountering something weird, those strong people will never charge forward, but let the weak test Lin Yao who has not yet grown up. It is very likely that they will be consumed, and the humans living in this city will also be selected by the strong and brought into the treacherous situation to be used as pawns for temptation.
This is not the most tragic thing. The most terrifying thing is that those props are not safe, and some props rely on lifespan, eyeballs, and brains as activation conditions.
Don't expect those strong people with no moral conscience not to use these dangerous props, and they will not pay the price themselves. Therefore, it is the ordinary people outside who will suffer in the end. Their eyeballs, heads, hearts, blood, etc. will no longer be able to use them. belong to myself.
"Without a government, there will only be dozens or hundreds of strong people here who can survive like emperors, and the rest will be ants."
Without much thought, Lin Yao thought that the current situation was better.
Although he couldn't obtain cursed items like this, he didn't have to worry about his family being kidnapped by strong men at any time, nor did he have to worry about his leader going berserk.
Even the deception can be shattered under the pressure of the state's armed forces, allowing people to live with peace of mind.
The public officials who came here were collecting the cursed coins, watching the battle records, and counting everyone's merits.
Nothing happened during the recording process, so Lin Yao was not surprised by this.
If it is a peaceful era, corruption will definitely occur, there is no need to doubt this.
But the war years are different, especially when the country has evolved to the modern era and has a sense of national identity. When faced with the crisis of genocide, mankind will unite together like never before in response to the crisis.
This can be seen from the Lighthouse Country during World War II. That free country was full of capital, and there were very few people willing to serve as soldiers. It was considered selfish by the Chinese people.
But when such a selfish person was attacked at the port, the country completely entered a wartime state. Countless people signed up to join the army and many people donated money. It was an era of extreme unity in the lighthouse country, and everything was aligned with war.
Even the people of the Lighthouse Country can do this to protect their country when their country is threatened, not to mention the current situation in the land of China. The situation now is even more dangerous than then. At this time, it is a battle with aliens. Once defeated, everyone will perish. In addition, the enchantment can absorb the growth of negative emotions. This era may not be the best era, but it is definitely the most just era. Everyone is afraid that negative emotions will precipitate and create terrifying monsters.
"It's ironic that external crises can promote internal unity."
Lin Yao was sighing, but things were going on in an orderly manner.
Meritorious deeds were recorded, and there were also some doctors, healers, warriors, and even researchers in white coats wandering around the haunted house, looking at the items on display, commenting on them, and preparing to buy them.
The greatest function of the things here is research value, followed by combat value.
Those researchers came here to select items. While selecting, someone soon discovered the ghost gun that had been placed.
"The ability to kill with one hit, or the ability to unblock three times a day, when did this gun come out?"
"Really, hiss, such firearms should only appear in the core area."
"That team was so powerful that they were able to obtain this gun."
"Of course it's our Hongshan team."
"It's you Li Shan, is this really what you got?"
"Of course, we got this gun by catching the ghost bullet... Yes, we caught the ghost wandering in the gray mist. You can relax a little bit in the future."
"Ghost Bullet, how much merit does this deserve? Li Shan, in the peripheral team, you may be in the top ten this time and become a pacesetter team."
"The top ten is too difficult. Except for the three teams of Red Fox, Iron Fist, and Cannonball, who can dare to say that they can lock in the top ten."
Li Shan, who became active, was having sex with his companions and enjoying the envy of everyone. Of course, he also wanted to pull Lin Yao over, but Lin Yao rejected him.
"Although I feel like I can't stand it anymore, being too pushy is not what I want to do."
Lin Yao, who was living in the dark, was observing the people in the haunted house. At this time, he slowly discovered one thing, that is, everyone seemed to have formed a small team, and they moved around the haunted house in the form of a team.
The composition of these teams is also diverse, some are mixed, some are composed entirely of armed police, and there are even outsiders who are not soldiers, armed police, or special departments who participate in the battle in the strange environment.
Of course, these personnel are surrounded by soldiers who act together. This is auxiliary and can be regarded as a kind of surveillance.
There are many people in the team, but at least there are more than ten people in action.
"A team has at least ten people and a maximum of twenty people. There are seven teams here. There are still many who are fighting outside and have not returned. There are more than 200 people who have entered this strange place. This does not include the core area. The strong ones... Ninghai City should have more than one treacherous situation to deal with, alas, no wonder the military casualty rate is so high."
While Lin Yao was observing, Li Shan also ran over happily.
"Old Zhang, we made a lot of money this time. The prosecutors confirmed that we subdued the ghost bullet. This monster alone has 3,000 merit points. The owner of the haunted house also gave us 13,000 yuan, which was exchanged for another 1,300 merit points. There is also information about the whack-a-mole monster and the rewards for killing it. We got 5,000 merits this time."
The state will collect the money gained from imprisoning monsters, but just letting the horses run without feeding them is impossible in wartime.
Those countries with money will reward them with meritorious deeds, and meritorious deeds can be exchanged for skills, materials, money, and even house registration, so everyone agrees with this matter.
"It's not a loss to exchange the cursed items for training materials that can increase your strength without any hindrance."
"5,000 meritorious deeds, this is already what we have gained in the past three days."
"Who says it's not? The main reason is that the ghost bullets are too exaggerated. Even if the restrictions on the whack-a-mole weirdness are lifted, we will only give 700 if we kill them. If the restrictions are not lifted, it would be good to give 300 merit."
The merit points obviously played a great role, and everyone was very happy after hearing it. However, Squad Leader Zhang soon thought of the heavy armored soldier who died and sighed.
"It's a pity. It would be nice if there were no casualties."
"That's such a good thing. In this era, who doesn't have their head tied to their waist?"
