A flood of new information about the second round of the Apocalypse War appeared in Yi Bai's view.
Yi Bai didn't dare to hesitate, reading through it carefully.
Upon seeing that the theme of the war was "confrontation," his first thought was: This is a clear setup for humanity to turn against each other! A strategy for mutual destruction! An absolutely toxic scheme!
When he saw that the opposing nation was Sakura Nation, his second thought was: What a brilliant move! What a cunning strategy! I applaud the Apocalypse War!
It wasn't just Yi Bai who had this thought. Across the major cities, survivors immediately exploded in chatter on the chat channels.
"A confrontation? Mutual slaughter... Wait! The little devils? Damn it, we have to go!"
"You talk about surviving the apocalypse, but if it's the little devils, then it's not just about surviving, it's about wiping them out!"
"I'll die, my whole family wiped out, but I'll drag those dog bastards down with me!"
"What? Brothers, it's already the apocalypse, and you're still obsessed with this? Seriously? Can't you just focus on surviving for once?"
"I caught a little traitor! Who dares to give me their location? I'll meet you in real life!"
"This kind of thing never gets old! It's not outdated! I won't forget the century-old humiliation!"
"Well, well, this Apocalypse mechanism is growing on me, brothers! Forget everything else, F-level, let's do it!"
At that moment, nearly all survivors in the country were unanimously in favor.
F-level!
Who cared about resources at this point?
If we can't survive, then what? Let the military bring more cannons! Maybe even nuclear bombs to blow them to hell!
Yi Bai didn't hesitate for a moment and voted for F-level.
He continued to observe the chat channel, and it was clear that nearly everyone was echoing the same sentiment.
A month into the apocalypse, and people's patriotism had not been extinguished.
I can become ruthless and even kill my neighbors, but I will not allow another country to bully us, especially not Sakura Nation.
Life is too short to not fight back. If we lose this battle, then what's the point of surviving?
An hour later, new information appeared before the survivors.
[The voting has concluded. The results are as follows: F-level.]
No surprise!
F-level!
When Yi Bai opened the voting data, he was stunned—F-level had an overwhelming 92% approval!
The vote was practically unanimous!
Although 8% of survivors may have voted for personal reasons, or because they couldn't hang on any longer, most survivors stood firm.
[Voting results: Our side F-level vs. Opponent's A-level.]
[Our soldier count has been raised to 100,000, and they are allowed to carry proper weaponry.]
[The enemy is only allowed to carry basic defensive gear, no weapons or equipment.]
[Since this is not the first Apocalypse War, all countries are not allowed the "giving" and "taking" operations before battle.]
[The second round of the Apocalypse War officially begins!]
With the news out, the survivors in the country couldn't help but cheer.
"Damn it! 100,000 against 10,000, with full gear—this is going to be a massacre!"
"Forget everything else, let's pop some champagne! I'm gonna drink my piss from last night! Full stomach today!"
"Bro, seriously, are you still drinking piss? How are you living through this month?"
"What if my talent is to drink non-potable water and turn it into food?"
"Huh? There's such a talent? The world is huge, full of weird things!"
The chat was lively.
Yi Bai couldn't help but smile.
But before he could enjoy the moment, another new piece of information appeared on his screen, still related to the Apocalypse War.
"The Apocalypse War has already started, but why is there more info?" Yi Bai thought, suddenly alarmed.
[The second round of the Apocalypse War has begun. All countries that completed the first round of war half the time earlier have received the "War Fund Box" module!]
[War Fund Box]: A special mechanism module. All survivors of the country can actively donate any items, materials, talent, etc., into the War Fund Box. For each donation, they will receive the equivalent amount in war funds. All items within the country's War Fund will be converted into war resources, helping to strengthen and maintain the country's military.]
[At the same time, a War Fund Rankings have been opened.]
[Any player in the top 10,000 of the War Fund Rankings will be able to communicate with the country's military (the higher the rank, the fewer restrictions on communication) and receive War Legacy.]
[War Legacy]: If the country loses the current war, this will not take effect. If the country wins, the player will randomly receive items, creatures (displayed as talent units), abilities, skills, or weapons from the war world. The higher the ranking, the more valuable the War Legacy.]
"War Legacy?" Yi Bai rubbed his chin, intrigued by this unexpected benefit of winning early.
It was a snowball effect for everyone!
Not only will countries that win more wars benefit, but survivors within the country can also take advantage of this system. The more resources they accumulate, the better their chances of exchanging for the War Legacy they need.
"I can even donate talents... but I won't, not yet. Talents are precious, I'll keep them."
Yi Bai shook his head. He wasn't about to donate talents, but he was definitely going to collect some points.
Being in the top 10,000 in the War Fund rankings was a must. He needed to see exactly what this War Legacy was about.
