The group looked at each other, each with their own plans.

Du Ze is a real scoundrel. He is very harsh on them and will kick them out of the team if they drag the team down.

Now that Du Ze is dead, if they can evenly share the contribution points he accumulated, they'll be one step closer to entering the core area. If Du Ze's death brings them a better life, they'll only wonder why he didn't die sooner.

Everyone looks out for themselves, especially in the end times.

"You...you really can split it equally? You're not kidding us, are you?" someone in the Falcon Squad asked, still somewhat skeptical.

Liu Peng was overjoyed and patted the man on the shoulder reassuringly, "You keep your word. As long as you work hard for me, you'll get plenty of benefits in the future."

The tense atmosphere was easily dispelled by Liu Peng's few words.

With Du Ze dead and Sun Lu seemingly unwilling to get involved, Liu Peng naturally regained control of the team.

He arranged for the remaining members of the Falcon Squad to be put into one vehicle, and then arranged for Lu Sheng and Sun Lu to be put into the most comfortable bus before helping Zhao Fan onto a small passenger vehicle by himself.

"Miss Zhao isn't very familiar with our deep space base, so I'll take this opportunity to introduce it to her more." Liu Peng grinned lewdly and half-coerced Zhao Fan into the car.

"Commissioner Liu, can I ride with you?" Just before setting off, single mother Xu Jing suddenly approached Liu Peng, rubbing her hands awkwardly. "I didn't do much on this trip, and I'm already going back like this..."

Although long-term malnutrition has caused her skin to turn sallow and her eyes to become sunken, Xu Jing's bone structure still makes her a beauty in the making. Even in her disheveled and haggard state, one can still vaguely see some of her former beauty.

Zhao Fan hid behind Liu Peng and kept giving Xu Jing meaningful glances.

But Xu Jing acted as if she didn't see it, and put on a flattering face, "Commissioner Liu, I used to run a massage parlor before the apocalypse. I have some skills. I can help you stretch your back and loosen your shoulders."

Liu Peng looked her up and down a few times, then nodded smugly.

"Sigh, everyone has their own ambitions." Han Rui sighed as she watched Xu Jing fawn over Liu Peng.

Sun Tiantian reached out and tapped her on the head. "They have children to raise. It must be tough for a widow and her child to live in the base. Maybe if they can build some connections, they can live a more comfortable life."

Only Lu Sheng stared at Liu Peng's haggard old face, using his mind to retrieve the only superpower copy card from his spatial storage.

After getting into the car, a mechanical electronic voice came from the system.

[Replicable Abilities: Ability Replication]

[After use, it can copy any supernatural ability within a 100-meter radius and grants 2 minutes of usage privileges.]

The skill has a 72-hour cooldown.

Looking at the information that appeared on the card, Lu Sheng pursed his lips knowingly.

The ability copy card can display the description of the ability that has just been used. Lu Sheng used the copy card on Liu Peng, so the card shows the ability that Liu Peng just used.

No wonder he was able to wipe out Du Ze's entire group. It seems Liu Peng copied the Bone Spur Zombie's abilities and caught Du Ze off guard at the crucial moment.

This guy is really hiding his true abilities.

[Are you sure you want to use the Ability Copy Card?]

Lu Sheng clicked no without hesitation.

She didn't want to copy that trashy superpower that only lasted two minutes after three days of charging.

Just as Lu Sheng discovered Liu Peng's true intentions, Liu Peng was enjoying a professional massage from Xu Jing in another car.

"Commissioner Liu, do you think this pressure is okay?" Xu Jing asked ingratiatingly as she kneaded Liu Peng's greasy shoulders with her slender fingers.

Liu Peng closed his eyes comfortably, still feeling smug about how easily he had snatched the research report.

Xu Jing's massage technique was very professional, and he quickly became drowsy.

Just as he was about to relax and take a short rest, he suddenly felt a cool sensation on his neck.

Liu Peng suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp pain shooting through his neck.

"Is it comfortable? If it's comfortable, that's good, because comfort is reserved for the dead!" Xu Jing had somehow managed to tightly strangle Liu Peng's neck with a hemp rope, pulling it taut with both hands at the same time.

She appeared delicate and petite, but at this moment, she unleashed a brute force greater than that of an adult man!

Liu Peng gripped the rope around his neck with both hands, his face turning a deep reddish-brown from suffocation.
