After lunch, only 44 people remained, and the leaderboard changed. Zhang Ziqing had 10 kills and 23 skills, ranking first. Yuan Rui had 10 kills and 14 skills, unchanged, ranking second. Zhu Chen had 9 kills and 12 skills, ranking fourth. Below Ji Lin'an, Kaka had 6 kills and 10 skills, remaining in fifth place.
After seeing the rankings, Qianliyan became anxious: "Don't they want to team up? Why are they just killing people like crazy?"
Wu Feng frowned as well: "Can we get out? If this continues, they'll kill everyone."
Behind the living room feature wall is a huge clock. It's just past 11 o'clock. We didn't have breakfast this morning, so we had lunch a little early. Ji Lin'an walked to the barrier door and tentatively reached out his hand. He was bounced back as soon as he reached the barrier entrance. The system immediately notified him: There are still lucky people who have not been able to team up. The safe house is under protection time. If you choose to leave the safe house, the team matching will be automatically invalidated. The matching when you re-enter will be the same. Please choose carefully.
Ji Lin'an returned to the living room and turned to say, "We can go out now, but our current team matchmaking will be canceled after we go out. We'll have to wait for the next group of ten people to enter together."
Wu Feng's expression was somewhat moved, and he hesitated to speak. Ji Lin'an sighed, "Wu Feng, just say what you're thinking. Don't keep it to yourself."
Wufeng scratched his head: "Why don't we go out? We can't keep being so soft-hearted. If we don't take the initiative to kill the lucky ones and seize their skills, we'll only become more and more passive. Right now, the only one we can rely on is you, but the others are also very strong. In the end, only the top three of you will survive. The rest of us who don't have any skills will just be helping others to get kills."
I looked at Ji Lin'an. He was calm and observed everyone's expressions. Li Song and Dai Qiang stood in the corner, their eyes meeting and their expressions were somewhat moved. An Xin, on the other hand, still had that calm and collected expression. Wei Bin looked at Song Yi, and Song Yi looked at me. Chen Hu was still drinking the leftover soup from the self-heating hot pot at the table, seemingly not caring at all.
Ji Lin'an spoke up, "How about this, to be fair, we'll have a vote, shall we?"
Everyone looked at each other and nodded in agreement. Ji Lin'an turned to Chen Hu and asked, "Chen Hu, have you finished eating?"
Chen Hu took a tissue, wiped his mouth, and slowly walked towards us: "I'm done eating, I'm here."
Ji Lin'an said, "Those who agree to go out, please raise your hands. Those who don't raise their hands are assumed to not want to go out."
Wu Feng was the first to raise his hand. He looked anxiously at the people around him. Dai Qiang hesitated for a moment, raising his hand halfway before pulling it back when no one else raised theirs. An Xin glanced at Dai Qiang, thought for a few seconds, and then raised his hand as well. Li Song saw that An Xin had also raised his hand, so he also raised his hand. Song Yi had been looking at me the whole time, but after glancing at Wei Bin beside her, she stopped looking at me and raised her hand. Wei Bin saw that Song Yi had raised her hand and also extended his hand.
Currently, only Ji Lin'an, Chen Hu, and Qianliyan are on the field. They haven't raised their hands. The score is 6 to 4, and the result is obvious. Ji Lin'an gave me a meaningful look and was about to announce the result when Qianliyan raised his hand. Although I was a little surprised, I respected his choice. Ji Lin'an and I looked at Chen Hu at the same time. Chen Hu shrugged but did not raise his hand.
Ji Lin'an laughed and said, "Alright, it's 7 to 3, the majority of votes are in favor of going out. Su Yi, Chen Hu, do you two want to stay in the safe house and wait for us, or do you want to go with the rest of us?"
I pursed my lips and looked at Ji Lin'an helplessly: "Do I even need to ask? Wherever you go, I'll go."
Chen Hu leaned back on the sofa, clasped his hands behind his head, and pointed at me with his chin: "I'm going with Su Yi."
I looked at Chen Hu in disbelief. I didn't expect him to follow me. Could it be because I was his savior? I smiled at Chen Hu, who looked indifferent.
Ji Lin'an nodded: "Okay, since we are now a group, let's act as a team. Once we're out, let's try to stay close together so we don't get separated or end up alone."
Looking at Ji Lin'an, I felt a mix of emotions, perhaps it was a woman's intuition. Our team would be nullified after this trip, which meant we could choose to fight each other. Seeing Ji Lin'an still protecting the team made me feel a little sad.
Now almost everyone has a gun. As long as you enter the zombie horde, kill zombies, and come out safely, you will get a lot of points. Bulletproof vests are definitely essential. Apart from Ji Lin'an, I, Qianliyan, and Wufeng all have bulletproof vests. Before setting off, I went into my space and took out the bulletproof vest that I had given Kaka before and gave it to Song Yi.
Everyone was ready to go. When Ji Lin'an reached out to touch the barrier at the door, he was blocked. I patted Ji Lin'an and said, "Let me try."
I walked up to the barrier and stepped directly into it. Half of my body was outside the barrier. I took two more steps forward and was out of the barrier. Everyone else followed suit and walked out of the barrier. The entire barrier disappeared after we all left the safe house.
As they walked along the floating bridge toward the forest, Ji Lin'an said as they approached the forest entrance, "Why don't we use our skills to check the surrounding area?"
The only ones with observation skills are Zhang Funan's clairvoyance and clairaudience, and An Xin's clairvoyance. However, when they heard this, they deliberately avoided Ji Lin'an's gaze and did not respond. Seeing that the situation was a bit awkward, the clairvoyant said to Ji Lin'an, "It's not that I don't want it, it's just that once you use a skill, you have to wait half an hour for the cooldown before you can use other skills. I haven't even used Ice Cone Shot properly yet, I want to try it out."
An Xin nodded: "Actually, there's no need to go look. There are so many hidden fruits on the road, even if you use your skills, you might not be able to see them."
Ji Lin'an nodded: "Yes, I understand. It was my oversight. It's okay, I'll use it."
I quickly stopped Ji Lin'an: "An Xin is right. Since we're here, let's make the best of it. We'll just have to play it by ear when we encounter people. You should save your skills. I just saw that the safe house also has coordinates. If all else fails, I can use the Anywhere Door to escape. However, my protective shield will have to be turned off for the time being."
Ji Lin'an nodded: "It's okay, you can keep it for now. Half an hour of cooling is actually quite fast."
I nodded and we headed toward the forest. The forest was a bit different from the forests we had seen before. There was a stone path at the entrance, and three paths led to us, one on each side and one directly in front of us. Calling it a forest was a bit of a stretch; with the roadside plants and flowers, it looked more like a large garden.
