Quick Wear: The Development of a Pure Cannon Fodder

Pei Shu nodded, her face bitter, "None of us have had a full meal in a long time."

"Don't we still have spare supplies?" Li Zeliang asked this because he was unconscious at the time and didn't know that they didn't even have time to get the spare supplies before running upstairs, fearing that they would be caught up by zombies.

Li Lan also took out the few biscuits he had left and said, "This is what we've been eating these past few days, brother. Ever since you fell into a coma, I've been eating this disgusting food every day."

"Li Lan, don't cry. The deputy captain told us that supplies are in short supply. It's normal to be like this." Pei Shu seemed to be comforting, but in fact, she was adding fuel to the fire.

Li Zeliang frowned, "Pei Shu, call her over and I'll ask her."

When the others saw that Li Zeliang was going to cause trouble for Meng Yu, they all tacitly kept silent and waited for Meng Yu to be held accountable later.

When Meng Yu and the others learned that Li Zeliang had woken up, their first reaction was joy. They did not notice that Pei Shu looked at Meng Yu with a strange look in her eyes, and walked back to the room.

"Captain! You're finally awake!"

"Yeah." Li Zeliang tilted his head and saw that there were only a few of his teammates left. A trace of sadness flashed across his eyes, but he quickly cheered up. He turned to look at Meng Yu, "Meng Yu, you've worked hard these days."

"No, this is what I should do." Meng Yu curled his lips.

Li Zeliang nodded and didn't say much about this matter. Instead, he talked about the issue that concerned him most. "I just noticed that Pei Shu and the others have very little food and drink. As the deputy captain in charge of the team's supplies, what's going on? Where are the supplies we collected earlier?"

Meng Yu met Li Zeliang's somewhat displeased gaze and was stunned for a moment. Then, the remaining affection for the team in her heart disappeared a lot. After quickly sorting out her emotions, she responded, "Captain, you were unconscious at the time, so we didn't know the situation. At that time, in order to avoid the zombie swarm that was following very closely, we had to carry you while you were unconscious. We could only carry the things on our backs and had no chance to grab the spare supplies. Then we ran upstairs like that."

Li Zeliang felt like he had punched cotton. The key point was that his punch was not quite justified. He felt a little embarrassed. "So that's how it is."

Li Lan, however, refused to let go of such a good opportunity to humiliate Meng Yu, and talked about the three people in the opposite room. "But we are very short of food right now, and my brother needs a lot of food and drink to recover. Otherwise, Captain Meng, why don't you go and ask the three people opposite for some food?"

Meng Yu frowned.

"Three people on the opposite side?" Li Zeliang was puzzled.

Li Lan briefly explained the situation of Yu Ziyin and the other two, focusing mainly on the fact that they had a lot of supplies.

Seeing that she hadn't gotten to the point, Yang Youcheng could only step forward and say, "Captain, those three are all Level 3 psychics. Furthermore, they were forced into the building together to avoid the Level 4 zombies because of us. Under such circumstances, it's a blessing for us that they're not our enemies."

"All three of them?" Li Zeliang was stunned, and then he felt that since the other party had such strength, it was normal for them to have sufficient supplies.

Li Zeliang thought for a moment and said, "If that's the case, it's probably going to be difficult to get supplies from them. Forget it, let's figure out a solution ourselves, right?"

Pei Shu said, "Deputy Captain Meng and his men have gone down to look for food these past few days. There isn't much to eat. All the rooms are empty. We can only ask for it from the other side."

Li Zeliang looked at Meng Yu, as if seeking confirmation. Seeing Meng Yu nod, he realized the seriousness of the situation. "Then, this is indeed the only solution. But now, if we can hold on, let's hold on for a while. If the food is really insufficient, I will go and negotiate with them."

As he said this, he looked at Meng Yu again.

Meng Yu was silent for a while, then said, "Captain, you're injured. I'll go."

"I wish I wasn't injured. Sorry to trouble you." Li Zeliang said.

"will not."

Meng Yu walked out of the room quietly. Yang Youcheng looked at Meng Yu's back and wanted to follow her out, but was stopped by Li Zeliang, "Youcheng, my wound seems to hurt again, help me take a look."

"Captain, isn't it dangerous for the deputy captain to go alone?" Zhou Wei couldn't help but ask.

Li Zeliang glanced at him. The powerful man's pressure forced Zhou Wei to retract his steps. Li Zeliang said, "I'm injured. As the vice-captain, it's normal for her to take over. Zhou Wei, you have to trust her."

The room fell silent in an instant.

404: [Host, Li Zeliang has woken up.]

In another room, Yu Ziyin had just finished absorbing the crystal core. She looked up, taking in the situation across from her via the 404 screen, and said, "This Li Zeliang puts his family first. So, when faced with the possibility of his family being bullied by his teammates, he irrationally sides with them without even checking, and even secretly vents his anger on their behalf. He's sick."

404: [Host, I have discovered a hidden mission related to Meng Yu. Do you want to accept it?]

Yu Ziyin was stunned for a moment. [What's the reward if I accept? What's the punishment if I fail?]

404: [Because this hidden quest is triggered in this apocalyptic world, the reward is also related to this world. The quest reward is a Level 4 Crystal Core. The host can choose to absorb it directly, or place it within the system space and absorb it in another apocalyptic world. This reward is non-transferable. If the hidden quest fails, the host's supernatural powers will be unusable for the next month.]

Yu Ziyin's pupils shrank. Not being able to use her superpowers for a month was a bit difficult for her.

Just when she was about to refuse, a 404 message popped up, "Host, this mission is actually an opportunity for you. From all aspects, Meng Yu would be a good team member."

This statement almost explicitly stated the content of the task. After thinking about it, Yu Zinyin decided to observe Meng Yu for a few more days before deciding whether to accept the task.

Although the first impression was good, there was no guarantee that she would not make the mistake of choosing the right person.

404 didn't mean to force her to accept the mission right away. [If the host wants to accept this mission later, just say "accept."]

【OK. 】

Seeing that Yu Ziyin had been silent after absorbing the crystal core, Zhao Cheng couldn't help but walk over and ask, "Yinyin, what's wrong?"

He reached out to touch Yu Ziyin's forehead, as if unsure. He cupped the back of her head with his hand and used his own forehead to check Yu Ziyin's temperature. After confirming that she didn't have a fever or other adverse factors, Zhao Cheng didn't let go of her hair, but just moved a little further away. From a close distance, he asked with concern and a smile, "There's nothing unusual. What's wrong with you? Why are you daydreaming?"

Yu Zinyin stared blankly at the man in front of her, as if she was mesmerized by Zhao Cheng's smile and felt a little confused.

"Why are you so silly?" Zhao Cheng moved closer, looked into Yu Zinyin's eyes, glanced at the red tips of Yu Zinyin's ears, and his smile deepened.

He looks really good when he smiles. At this moment, he is like a cunning fox, with his deep eyes holding a somewhat bewitching smile. The closer Yu Ziyin gets, the more she can feel the beauty of his face. How can this guy be so good-looking?
