DOOMSDAY ECSTASY CAVE (17)
17. JOIN
Chu Youning suddenly jumped out the window while they were not paying attention, and instantly turned into a grain of sand after landing. Several people rushed to the window to catch her but couldn't even find her shadow. At this moment, there was a strong aroma coming from the kitchen. Punk man's legs were the fastest. He was the first to rush to the kitchen and carried back a pot of porridge in his hands. The porridge looked very good, just looking at it aroused the appetite of the several people. Punk man took a sip and his eyes lit up, "It's delicious!"
The burly man was dissatisfied that the punk man was eating alone and snatched it from the punk man. He tasted it first, and then drank it all without caring about the heat.
The other people did not fight them over a porridge, bearing their identities in mind, but they still relished in the appetizing smell.
"Boss, I have an immature idea!"
The thunder ability user was silent for a moment and said, "It's getting late, let's clear this place for the night."
Hearing that it was getting late, Chu Youning looked up at the sky. It was only noon, okay?
However, Chu Youning secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Although it was indeed lunch time, she had made this meal on purpose. She made the meal with great care, with just the right temperature and time. She bet that there was no cook in this powerful team to cook good food, or even if there was, there was no time to do it. Fortunately, she was lucky and won the bet.
Next, the punk man and the burly man took turns to persuade her with sweet talk as if they wanted to cheat children. They not only talked about the welfare of their team, but also said that she would be able to eat and drink good food if she followed them, and that she won't have to worry about defending herself against other supernatural ability users. They repeatedly emphasized on how miserable the shapeshifters were outside and therefore, following them was definitely the best choice for her.
But they didn't see Chu Youning's shadow even after they had worn out their mouths and talked their throats dry. It looked like they had really scared her.
Suddenly the white-clothed man opened his eyes, and his mental energy shot out fiercely and trapped a rolling grain of sand with precision. Chu Youning, who had turned into a grain of sand, was then caught by the mental energy and placed on the table surrounded by people.
Seeing that she was still pretending to be dead on the table even after being caught, the thunder ability user frowned slightly and said, "Either join or die!"
Chu Youning was not happy, was this still human language? One sentence blocked her way to step down!
The white-clothed man looked at the thunder ability user helplessly, "Lei Yi!"
The thunder ability user pursed his lips and did not speak again.
"You have also heard about the situation of the shapeshifters outside. At best, you will be used as a cannon fodder sentry by others, and when you are not good, you will be treated as a plaything. In two days, there will be a large army to move food, and then, even if you hide, you will eventually run out of food. Are you sure you don't want to follow us? Only we have the strength to protect your safety!"
What the white-clothed man meant by protection was not protection from zombies, but from the more sinister sides of mankind. This line was already the best one given to her to step down and she can only take it. There would be no difference in stepping down now than after dragging for a long time.
The small grain of sand moved slightly, and finally rolled slowly to the hand of the white-clothed man. The white-clothed man smiled and put her on the ground and Chu Youning once again became an ordinary looking little girl.
After several twists and turns, she finally succeeded in infiltrating this team. As for the revenge for that wound on her neck... Chu Youning walked over to the white-clothed man and lowered her head timidly, hiding the calculations in her eyes.
The reason why she didn't go to her target Lei Yi, to follow, was because she found that Lei Yi and that woman stood very close to each other every time. If she guessed right, then they should be a couple.
Of course, even if they were a couple, she won't retreat. After all, human mortality rate was so high now, who knows when that woman will die? When that time comes, she will be able to easily occupy the post by then. So what she needs to do now was to try to brush up her favorability on Lei Yi, so that it will be easier for her to rise to the top after that woman's death.
After Chu Youning's joining was confirmed, the punk man clapped his hands, "Okay, then should we start work?"
Chu Youning looked puzzled, immediately after, she saw the few people going out in tacit understanding, and killing all the zombies, including the speed-type zombie.
It turned out that the white-clothed man, know as Lu Yiming, gave everyone a secret signal as soon as he perceived Chu Youning's presence. After that, everyone concealed their real strength while attacking. No wonder they can be powerful to this extent, it's because they are too cautious!
What surprised Chu Youning even more was that, they emptied all the food after killing off the zombies. Wrapping up the pots and pans she used in the kitchen and the remaining frozen meat and vegetables from the fridge.
That woman was actually a dual-type ice and space ability user! How big was her space? Can it hold so many things? Was this not the configuration of the heroine in the pre-apocalyptic novels?
