For Li Chu now.
Her only plan for dealing with Shen Jing for now is to expel her!
Li Chu knew perfectly well what these people in front of him in the lobby were up to.
However, she cannot control the Huang family for the time being.
The supplies they brought were limited, and Captain He Qing was also injured.
If they really start fighting now, with only Huang Simiao and Zhou Lihao, two offensive ability users, they have no chance of winning.
At this point, Li Chu probably understood that if you're going to negotiate with a tiger, you also have to bear the risk of the tiger's claws retaliating!
But she had no way out!
Once you've accepted the system's binding, you can never go back to the beginning!
"Does Huang You know you're being too clever for yourselves?" Li Chu took out a gun from her backpack.
However, the gun quickly slipped from her grasp, as if someone were controlling it!
She frowned at the thuggish-looking man in front of her. "Is this also a superpower?"
Seeing Li Chu's calm and composed face, the people were disappointed. They had thought they would see the beautiful woman panic and cry.
However, they weren't used to the beautiful woman not smiling gently and quietly anymore. "Li Chu, we don't want to make things difficult for you either, after all, you've helped us before."
"Don't frown! I prefer your smiling face, haha!"
"We only want He Qing, and we also want Huang Zuo and the others released!"
"Actually, Brother You secretly asked us to take extra care of you, you know what I mean?" The sleazy-looking man picked up the gun from the ground. "Damn! Metal superpowers are really convenient!"
Li Chu realized that he had awakened a metal-based superpower, allowing him to control metal!
However, such newly awakened superpowers can only be displayed for a short time.
"Smack!"
As the mutated vine lashed out at his hand, the gun fell to the ground again. The man knew without a doubt that Huang Simiao was responsible for the commotion. "Huang Simiao! Don't think you're so powerful just because you have a vine!"
"You're not the only one with mutated vines!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than another mutant from the Huang family emerged from his palm as vines sprouted.
It seems that the Huang family's research did not stop after Gu Chen left.
They even managed to bind more people to the mutated vines, but how many people died in the process is unknown.
Huang Simiao vaguely sensed that the energy of their mutated vines was different from hers. But who cared? She simultaneously released three thick, long mutated vines that crisscrossed the hall, binding people wherever they went!
"Li Chu, step back!"
Noticing that Li Chu was trying to get closer, Huang Simiao turned around and shouted.
Li Chu just wanted to step forward and help. "I'll help you. Zhou Lihao has already surrounded the captain."
Looking towards the stairwell, Zhou Lihao indeed had surrounded Zhang Run and He Qing with an earthen wall.
This is also a clumsy method.
Many people in the lobby were just watching from the sidelines, but after seeing Zhou Lihao and Huang Simiao's superpowers, they all began to waver.
I knew they awakened their superpowers earlier, but I didn't know they were this powerful!
As opportunists, shouldn't they sway towards the stronger side?
But before they could change sides, Huang Simiao was knocked down by a foul-smelling shock!
Is it a child?
The speed is too fast!
As if he felt his earlier show-off wasn't getting enough attention, the kid even did it again in slow motion!
"Bang! Bang!"
Just as Huang Simiao was about to regain her footing, she was knocked down again by the child with the speed-generating ability!
Her mutated vines didn't even get close before the child dodged them at incredible speed!
"Ugh!" Huang Simiao was knocked to the ground for the third time.
Li Chu came over and helped her up. Even though she was disappointed in Huang Simiao, she couldn't help but ask worriedly, "Miaomiao, how are you?"
Huang Simiao recognized the three children, who were taking advantage of He Qing's relaxed vigilance to injure his abdomen.
She struggled to her feet, supporting herself with Li Chu's hand.
In fact, high-level ability users can see ability users of lower levels than themselves.
But she couldn't discern the hierarchy among the three children...
"Why...why are you helping those people? They're bad people."
Upon hearing Huang Simiao's words, the leader of the children grinned and laughed out loud: "Hahaha, sister, does that mean I'm a good person?"
Huang Simiao choked.
Although I don't understand how they convinced the three children, it's clear that reasoning with them won't work now!
She pushed Li Chu behind her back, and then released the mutated vines again.
At this moment, everyone in the lobby was very quiet.
The other survivors, who were already indecisive, shut up.
Only those who had sided with the Huang family continued to laugh arrogantly, "Huang Simiao, don't think you're the most powerful person here!"
"Don't talk to her anymore, just deal with them before that monster arrives!"
"Yeah, Huang Zuo is still inside. He'll definitely throw a tantrum when he comes out!"
"Tch, he has the nerve to throw a tantrum? He's made such a huge mess, who knows how Brother You will teach him a lesson when he gets back!"
"Alright! It's not our place to lecture you anyway!"
Listening to their words, you could tell that they were in such a hurry to deal with He Qing in order to protect the Huang family's secret.
Although Huang Zuo had practically revealed all of the Huang family's secrets by the afternoon.
However, as long as He Qing cannot return to the base, it will not affect the Huang family at all!
See? Now the situation is beyond our control.
The three children asked for a high price.
They actually need five boxes of bread and bottled water, but they do seem to be quite useful!
Shen Jing had always used her special ability to detect things, so she definitely couldn't hide what was happening in the lobby on the first floor from her.
She looked down at everything that was happening below.
Gu Yan stood beside her, but his eyes were fixed on Li Chu's direction. "If you don't want to lose money on your investment, why don't you go down and help?"
Shen Jing knew that Gu Yan was deliberately trying to anger her.
"What are you looking at?" she asked instead of answering.
Gu Yan smiled coldly, "The energy entity that dared to come and spy back then was on that woman."
Shen Jing's face darkened; she had actually guessed correctly.
"There's something I haven't told you yet. In this game, those chosen as the protagonists will have great fortune."
Gu Yan seemed to have known all along, and looked at her with a complicated expression. "Main character? Supporting character?"
He moved his hand in the direction of himself and Li Chu.
He finally asked, rather strangely, "And what about you?"
Shen Jing spoke frankly: "She doesn't belong to either side, but she was a sabotaging...villainous female supporting character?"
Gu Yan was silent for a moment. His previous guess that Shen Jing's assigned identity was unreasonable.
Since she was chosen by the main god to drive the plot forward, how could she appear by his side?
But now I understand.
This is just adding more tragedy to his life...
He tapped the metal knife with his finger and sighed listlessly, "How boring."
Absolutely! Apocalyptic hunting livestream is really entertaining, isn't it?
Shen Jing propped her cheek up with one hand and looked downstairs, where she saw Huang Simiao being beaten by three children.
The real apocalypse is bloody, inhumane, and devoid of morality; all you see is self-interest and vendetta!
Is this kind of live stream really entertaining?
