The other girl wasn't in much better shape; she was disheveled, disoriented, and muttering to herself.

"I just want to have a good meal before I die. Starving to death is too painful."

Wang Feng stared at Fang Yingqiu.

"Didn't you say you would protect us, protect humanity's last hope? Then leave, okay? You're so capable, you can survive anywhere. Just go!"

Fang Yingqiu stared at him in disbelief.

"We're a team, how can you say something like that?! Don't you know this is all Jin Shu's trap? She just wants to see us kill each other! She's getting revenge for kicking her out back then!"

Wang Feng shouted.

"So what! Even if that's the case, so what?! As long as someone can survive, that's all that matters!"

Also, you advised us to persevere and not compromise, but in the end we were all going to die, except for you and Lu Ling, the two of you with endless energy!

Do you really think we didn't know? You two went to eat in the woods behind our backs, do you really think we're all fools!

Fang Yingqiu's face instantly turned ugly.

Her tone was cold.

"I only have so little food. If I share it with everyone, no one will have enough to eat."

Lu Ling is the leader; he needs to make accurate assessments at all times. If I have supplies, shouldn't I immediately think of him if there's a problem? How can you be so selfish? You enjoy Lu Ling's protection but are unwilling to sacrifice or contribute?

Lu Ling really misjudged you all!

In the end, it was not wrong for them to hoard supplies and steal food and resources, but it was wrong for those who were starving to death.

Now, the four of them slowly stood opposite the male and female protagonists.

"Since you two are so selfless, why don't you leave?"

Fang Yingqiu couldn't help but sneer.

She really didn't care about the supplies in the air-raid shelter. If it weren't for Lu Ling, she would have parted ways with these people long ago.

But now the black water has flooded the entire city, leaving only this lonely hilltop. If she's asked to leave now, where can she go? Staying outside is just waiting to die.

So she advocated continuing to wait it out; she refused to believe that such a large air-raid shelter couldn't find another entrance.

But only two or three days later, these people couldn't hold on any longer and were betrayed by Jin Shu.

How ridiculous! This kind of person doesn't deserve to be her companion!

"Alright, let's go. I want to see if Jin Shu will open the door for you if we leave!"

You'll regret it later!

Fang Yingqiu didn't believe that someone like Jin Shu would actually open the door for them; she was prepared to see the joke.

Lu Ling kept a straight face and didn't speak, but asked a question in a cold voice.

"Have you thought it through?"

Wang Feng smiled wryly.

"We're all going to die anyway, what's there to worry about? You guys go, wouldn't it be better to get rid of us burdens?"

With a stern face, Lu Ling grabbed Fang Yingqiu and turned to leave without hesitation.

He had only taken a couple of steps when he stopped again, stood behind a tree, and fired two shots into the sky.

Fang Yingqiu: "Jin Shu will never open the door, why waste these two bullets?"

Lu Ling: "Maybe she really is an idiot? If she opens the door, I'll make her regret making this decision."

Just then, the grass not far away suddenly moved, and then a mound of earth suddenly collapsed.

The next second, the secret passage of the air-raid shelter appeared in front of the four people.

The group was all taken aback; clearly, they hadn't expected Jin Shu to open it so readily.

"What are you standing there for? Come in!"

Jin Shu poked her head out and called out, and the four of them quickly ran towards the entrance.

At the same time, Lu Ling and Fang Yingqiu, who had just walked away, suddenly emerged from behind the big tree. Lu Ling was holding a gun in his hand, with the muzzle pointed at Jin Shu.

"I never thought you were really that stupid."

As Lu Ling walked, he sneered, the gun in his hand steadily pointed at Jin Shu's head.

"In that case, thank you for your foolishness."

Jin Shu stood motionless, watching them with a leisurely air.

"Oh, so you were lying in ambush here. I really didn't expect that."

After speaking, Jin Shu looked slowly at the four people at the cave entrance.

"What are you thinking about? Come in quickly."

The four men hesitated, but when they realized that staying outside meant certain death, they jumped into the hole without hesitation.

Seeing this, Lu Ling quickened his pace, with Fang Yingqiu following closely behind.

"Do you think your movements are faster or our guns are faster? If I were you, since we've already put four people in, what's wrong with adding two more? We can help you build a better underground castle. If you stay down there alone, you'll eventually run out of all your supplies."

As they spoke, the two men approached the cave entrance. Lu Ling smiled and was just about to shoot the idiot in front of him who had caused him so much suffering outside when suddenly he felt a "click" sound under his feet.

As a student, he had no idea what he was stepping on, and subconsciously lifted his foot and looked down.

The next second, his eyes flashed with unprecedented fear and panic, and accompanied by Jin Shu's relaxed laughter, a deafening explosion resounded throughout the entire mountain.

If Jin Shu hadn't dodged quickly, she would have been buried alive.

She quickly pulled her head back, closed the door, and slid down the pipe.

The man's heart-wrenching screams, accompanied by the woman's shrieks, echoed overhead.

Jin Shu casually brushed the dirt off her clothes, and after taking a few steps, she saw the four people blocked outside the door.

The four of them were also in shock. They thought they would see a spacious and open base after coming down, but they didn't expect to see a door blocking their way after only a few steps.

They turned around and looked at her with fear and apprehension.

"You blew them up?"

Jin Shu shook her head.

"It doesn't have that much power; it'll probably just cripple someone."

She spoke casually, but the people opposite her were terrified.

"Why did you ask us to come down?"

"I'm saving you. Didn't Fang Yingqiu say that you are the hope of the world? I'm helping humanity protect the spark of hope."

"You...you really think that way?"

Jin Shu was too lazy to explain further.

In the original storyline, the light screen was invented and used under Liang Qingzhi's command and with the assistance of these four people. It was initially used on a small scale, but after receiving positive feedback, the scale of the light screen was gradually expanded until it eventually became humanity's second home.

Therefore, these four people are still very important.

Regardless of what the four of them think now, the priority is to save their lives.

"If you said you would protect us, then what's the meaning of this door? Are you going to keep us locked out?"

"Otherwise what?"
