After a bit of playful fighting, the three of them looked at each other. Yuan Chu laughed and said, "That's it, we've wasted so many clothes."

Wan'er complained, "Sister Xin'er, you really are something. You can hit him, but why did you have to drag me into it?"

Yuan Chu saw an opportunity and said, "Go wash up quickly, otherwise it's a small matter if the paint dries, but it will corrode your skin."

Anyway, I'm a grown man and it doesn't matter to me. If you guys aren't afraid either, then we can wait and see.

Liu Xin looked at the paint all over her body, pointed at Yuan Chuyi, and then ran to the room she had chosen beforehand. Wan'er followed closely behind.

Yuan Chuyi followed behind the two women with a smug look on his face.

Outside the bathroom, Yuan Chuyi heard Wan'er say, "Sister Xin, really, this paint just won't come off, what are we going to do?"

Liu Xin said, "Try using a little more force."

Before Wan'er could even make a move, Yuan Chuyi knocked on the door and said, "I have some paint remover here, do you want some?"

Wan'er heard Yuan Chuyi's shout and said, "Yes! Leave some for us."

Yuan Chuyi said, "I don't have many. If you want some, open the door and I'll bring them in for you."

Just as Liu Xin was about to say, "Don't open the door, or he might lie to you," she saw that Wan'er, quick as a flash, had already opened the door.

Wan'er looked at Yuan Chu, who had barged in completely naked, and said, "Weren't you here to deliver medicine? Why did you come in?"

Liu Xin looked at Wan'er, who was covering her eyes with her hands, and said, "Alright, your eyes are showing through your hands, so stop pretending. If you keep pretending, you're doomed today."

Then Liu Xin asked frankly, "Do you think the paint-removing solution is real or fake?"

Yuan Chuyi swallowed hard as she looked at Liu Xin's perfect curves and said, "Of course it's true."

He looked at Liu Xin's outstretched hand, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Yes, I do, but it has to be ground fresh."

Wan'er asked in confusion, "What does 'freshly ground' mean?"

Liu Xin thought to herself, "My silly sister, you're about to be eaten and you don't even know it, yet you're asking what 'freshly ground' means."

Then Liu Xin whispered a few words in Wan'er's ear, and Wan'er pointed at Yuan Chuyi's hand and said, "You're going to rub it with this?"

Yuan Chuyi said with a mischievous grin, "That won't do. Whoever wants to use it, I'll pester them."

An hour later, the two girls looked at the paint that had been washed off and asked curiously, "Your thing really can wash off paint? That's amazing!"

Liu Xin looked at Wan'er with an expression that said, "You're not even pregnant yet, and you're already acting like an idiot. He has a spatial ability, have you forgotten?"

The next morning

The three of them stood on the cruise ship, looking down at the crowd gathered below. Yuan Chuyi said, "It seems that yesterday's method was indeed effective. Let's go down and take a look."

When Yuan Chuyi and his group appeared below the cruise ship, a crowd surrounded them, bombarding them with questions:

"Is it true that those who join Lungmen will be provided with three meals a day?"

"And why do you have an age restriction? Can't it be over 45?"

"What exactly will you ask us to do after we join Lungmen?"

Hearing the questions from many people, Yuan Chuyi waved his hand unhappily and said, "It's written very clearly above. Don't you know how to read it yourself?"

No sooner had he finished speaking than a young man stepped forward and said, "We hope that all 25 members of the team will join us."

Yuan Chuyi looked at the boy curiously and asked, "Why didn't you think about it before joining?"

The boy excitedly said, "My name is Wu Hao, and I am the captain of the Hope Team. The team members are all my former classmates."

Actually, I knew about you guys half a year ago. I accidentally stumbled upon your live stream of killing zombies at the stadium.

At that time, I thought to myself, if we could meet you all, we must join you.

I never thought I'd actually run into this today, so of course I have to join!

Yuan Chuyi looked at the boy's smile and said, "Don't you need to ask your other members?"

Wu Hao said with certainty, "No need to ask, we've already discussed this matter."

After saying that, he waved to the dozen or so boys and girls behind him.

Yuan Chuyi looked at the group of teenagers and asked, "Weren't there more than 20 of you? How come there are only a dozen or so now?"

“Our squad splits into two groups for each operation: one group goes out and the other stays at the base.”

Yuan Chu nodded and said, "Alright, I'll accept you."

The boy gestured to the people behind him and said, "Go and call Teacher Ding and the others over. I'll wait for you here."

Watching his classmates leave, Wu Hao asked Yuan Chuyi, "Sect Leader, you can leave the recruitment to me. Just tell me the details."

In no time, a No. 10 bus surrounded by a steel plate slowly came to a stop below the cruise ship. Wu Hao pointed at the bus and said, "What do you think, Master? I modified it myself."

Yuan Chuyi shrugged and didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at the twenty-odd students who got out of the car and asked, "Are these all from your team?"

Wu Hao pointed to a tall woman and said, "That's our homeroom teacher before the apocalypse, and now the vice-captain of the Hope Squad."

The woman approached Yuan Chuyi and said, "Hello, I am the vice-captain of the Hope Squad. I am very happy to join the Dragon Gate."

Yuan Chuyi shook her hand briefly and said, "Now that you're all here, join the Dragon Gate."

After saying that, he handed over the twenty-odd sect tokens to Wu Hao and told him how to use them.

After Yuan Chuyi saw their addition in the system, he said, "Since you are a team, you can stay here and help recruit people for now."

"Alright, Sect Leader, you can rest assured that you can leave this to us. We guarantee that we will recruit 200,000 people for you as soon as possible," Wu Hao said.

After saying that, Wu Hao came to Liu Xin and Wan'er and said, "You must be the two wives of the sect leader. The sect leader just told me the requirements for recruiting people."

"You two ladies can go aboard and rest with the sect leader. Leave this to me."

On the deck, Wan'er asked, "Is Wu Hao reliable? Can we entrust the task of recruiting people to him? What if he brings in some shady people with ulterior motives?"

Yuan Chuyi looked at the recruitment area below and said, "Nothing is impossible. I think this kid is quite tactful and recruiting shouldn't be a problem."

As for your concern about bringing in some shady or malicious people, I don't really care. Anyway, once we reach a million people, I'll expel some unqualified members from the sect.

At most, we'll just consider it as supporting them for a while for free.

A few days later, Yuan Chuyi looked at Wu Hao, who had just finished work, and asked, "You all can rest on the cruise ship tonight."

Also, do you know what's going on here?

Looking in the direction Yuan Chuyi pointed, Wu Hao said, "Actually, I'm not too sure either, but I heard that the government is now divided into two factions."

One faction advocated taking in as many survivors as possible, while the other wanted to abandon those who were unable to help in order to conserve resources.
