"Hey, it's time for you to contribute to the team."

Cang Xingyue was pushed and swayed for a moment. She regained her balance and frowned: "Don't you have superpowers? Why do you still need me to go?"

They are a six-person survivor team, out searching for supplies today, with three men and three women in each team.

The rest of the place had been ransacked, and they only found a small, dilapidated house that hadn't been searched, but there were many zombies wandering inside and outside the house.

With her arms crossed and an arrogant expression, San San Yao snorted, "With so many zombies here, aren't we tired from expending our superpowers? You, a piece of trash without any superpowers, naturally wouldn't understand."

Their special abilities should be saved for self-defense, not wasted on things like this. A useless person with no special abilities is perfect for attracting zombies; they're just worthless lives, so let them die.

"That's right! We put you on our team and even gave you food and drink, how can you not be grateful? You can't even refuse such a small thing."

The one speaking was Qiao Yushuang, the person who had just shoved her, a low-level ability user.

Hearing their words, he couldn't help but sneer inwardly. Give her food and drink? It's nothing but their leftovers, unwanted scraps, food that's already starting to rot.

They invited her to join the group with kind words, saying they couldn't bear to see anyone suffer. She thought she had met good people, but she never expected they were just a group of hypocrites.

They invited her to join the team on a whim, just for fun. When they were happy, they would come over and tease her, but when they were unhappy, she became their punching bag, letting them vent their emotions.

She chose to leave after being treated this way, but ended up being played again.

They lured the zombies, pushed her in front of them, and laughed arrogantly and triumphantly as they watched her being chased by the zombies.

Then, just as she was about to be caught by the zombies, he killed them, claiming to be her savior and demanding that she repay them by serving them like a slave.

And so, she was like someone stuck with stinky dog ​​poop, unable to shake it off, and feeling so disgusted she wanted to vomit.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up! Are you waiting for me to make a move?!" Qiao Yushuang kicked Cang Xingyue hard and urged her.

Cang Xingyue clenched her fists to suppress her anger. One of them was a mid-level ability user with mental control skills, and the other had the ability to use the puppet silver string. If she were to be controlled by them to lure zombies, she would probably only face death.

If I could still have a chance of survival if I went myself, even if I was unwilling, I had no choice but to do as they said.

As soon as Cang Xingyue approached the dilapidated hut, she immediately attracted the attention of the zombies. They stretched out their withered arms and rushed towards her, letting out piercing roars from their throats.

Their rotting flesh swung wildly as they ran, flinging out their barely hanging eyeballs and intestines, which fell to the ground and were trampled by the zombies behind them.

The zombie, its legs devoured, could only crawl rapidly on its hands and knees, its dark, hollow eyes filled with bloody tears as it stared intently at her.

The terrifying scene sent a chill down Cang Xingyue's spine. She turned and ran, while San San Yao and Qiao Yu Shuang had already hidden themselves.

She ran into the alley and nimbly climbed over the wall. The zombies chasing closely behind her stopped at the foot of the wall, reaching out their arms to grab her, one clinging to the other, trying to climb up.

Cang Xingyue stood on the wall, breathing rapidly. Sweat slid down her forehead and into her eyes, causing her to blink uncomfortably.

Watching the zombie struggling to climb, she felt a chill run down her spine and frantically tried to back away.

Suddenly, she lost her footing and fell straight backward. Looking back, she saw another alley behind her, littered with garbage. Not far away, two wandering zombies, smelling the scent of living beings, rushed towards her like madmen.

A sense of near-desperate helplessness overwhelmed her like a tidal wave, making it hard for her to breathe and nearly drowning her.

Is there still no way to escape?

Her fate was as fragile as a withered leaf...

Just when she thought she was about to fall into the jaws of zombies, a tall figure ran over and swiftly dealt with the zombies with a dagger.

Her body, which was about to fall to the ground, was lifted up and floated in mid-air.

A sleazy-looking guy in the crowd whistled at her, grinned smugly, brushed a stray hair from his forehead, and said triumphantly, "Hey feisty little girl, are you looking at me like that because I'm so handsome?"

Cang Xingyue, still shaken from her near-death experience, was so shocked by his words that she couldn't help but roll her eyes.

The person who came was also her teammate, named Lu Yibei, a high-level ability user with the dual abilities of telekinesis and reconciliation.

He usually speaks in a roguish and unserious manner. Although he has never bullied her like other people, he occasionally teases her verbally.

After he angered her once, she picked up a small stool and broke his head, which earned her the nickname "fiery little girl".

Although she had hit him once, he remained incorrigible and continued as before.

After placing her on the ground, he withdrew his powers, walked slowly over, picked up the simple wooden hairpin from the ground, and handed it to her.

"Hey, you hot-tempered girl, here's your stuff."

That was the wooden hairpin she used to style her hair; it had just fallen to the ground.

Looking at her stunningly beautiful and aloof face, Lu Yibei was momentarily mesmerized and couldn't help but reach out to stroke her seaweed-like long hair, but she turned away, so he could only awkwardly withdraw his hand.

Lu Yibei has never been one to meddle in other people's business. Usually, she would just stand by and watch coldly when she was bullied. Why did she suddenly become kind-hearted today?

She glanced at the wooden hairpin in her hand, then looked at him with confusion: "You..."

Before she could finish speaking, he pressed his index finger to her lips and said with a sly grin, "Don't bother saying thank you with your mouth."

"My suggestion is to kiss me directly on the cheek, that way I'll receive your thanks."

Cang Xingyue's lips twitched, and she brushed his hand away, saying, "I don't accept your suggestion, so I won't thank you."

After speaking, she used a hairpin to put her loose hair up. The casual and simple updo did not detract from her appearance; on the contrary, it made her temperament even more aloof.

She decided to ignore him and turned to leave. Now was the best time to get away from them; if she didn't leave now, when would she?

"Where are you going?" Lu Yibei stepped forward and stopped her, asking.

"Go find them." She couldn't tell him that she wanted to leave, so she made up a lie.

"Aren't you two together?" Lu Yibei then noticed that she was alone.

"They sent me here to lure the zombies, and now that I've done, I should go back," she said calmly and indifferently.

"They actually sent you to lure zombies?!" Lu Yibei's tone was shocked, and a hint of anger flashed across his face.

She looked into his eyes and met his gaze: "Otherwise what? Could it be that I did it willingly?"

He pushed aside the road blocking his way and said, "Excuse me, they'll attack me again if I get back late."

After saying that, she left without looking back, leaving Lu Yibei standing there, stunned, watching her retreating figure.

"Why go back? I wish you would leave."

Lu Yibei murmured, but Cang Xingyue didn't hear him, nor did he expect her to.
