I was used as cannon fodder at the start, but my superpower came into play!

Chapter 10: The more people there are, the more schemes they have!

As Chen Bin pushed open the security door on the sixteenth floor, the group of people who had gone out to search for supplies stepped inside one after another. They immediately saw the newlyweds, who were already in a chaotic mess, crowding in front of a door in the corridor on the sixteenth floor.

At this moment, Chi Feng, who considers himself a white-collar elite, is holding a gun with the muzzle pointed directly at the door.

Judging from his taut body and the tense expression on his face, it was easy for the people who had just returned to the sixteenth floor to tell that this was undoubtedly the guy who had fired the shot.

"What are you doing?"

As Chen Bin strode toward the flustered newlyweds, his brow furrowed, for he did not see Mao Xingzhou among the crowd.

The sudden sound really startled the newlyweds, and Chi Feng, who was in the lead, even moved his gun towards Chen Bin's location.

Chen Bin frowned even more, but he didn't stop walking and continued towards Chi Feng and the others.

What a joke! He's the team leader. If he's intimidated by a newbie with a gun, how can he lead the team?

Ignoring the gun pointed at him by Chi Feng, Chen Bin walked up to the group of newcomers.

"I'm asking you, what's all this commotion about, a bunch of people gathered here?"

Chen Bin repeated the question he had just asked, but his tone was much sterner than before.

"Someone's dead..."

It was Cheng Li who spoke. When she saw Chen Bin and the others return, Su Yu followed behind, carrying two large bags of food. With a sigh of relief, she raised her hand and pointed tremblingly into the door.

Following the direction Cheng Li pointed, Chen Bin saw two corpses lying in room 1607.

One of them was Xu Zhiwen, the secretary of the fat leader Zeng Fuyuan. His throat had been bitten to pieces by the zombies, and his death was extremely tragic.

The other was a zombie with a full head of blond hair and a highly decomposed body, which had turned from a white male. It was riddled with bullets by Chi Feng and was as dead as could be.

"How did he die?"

Staring at the two corpses in the room, Chen Bin asked the newcomer beside him.

Chen Bin was asking about Xu Zhiwen's cause of death, of course.

The newlyweds were speechless for a long while before the chubby leader, who was hiding in the crowd, finally spoke.

"Didn't you tell us to clear out the zombies on the sixteenth floor? We searched this room, and since there was no movement inside, we went in, thinking we'd collect anything useful. But when we opened a door, there was a zombie hiding inside. Xiao Xu was standing at the very front, and he couldn't dodge in time and got pounced on..."

Zeng Fuyuan certainly couldn't tell Chen Bin that it was he who encouraged Xu Zhiwen to open that door.

As for the method, it was to promise Xu Zhiwen that as long as he worked hard, he would guarantee that Xu's career would be smooth sailing after returning to the real world.

Chen Bin glanced at the fat leader Zeng Fuyuan, then at the lifeless Xu Zhiwen, and thought to himself, "What kind of mess is this, that the young and strong guy died while leaving behind a fat and bloated burden?"

If someone had to die, Chen Bin would prefer that it be the fat leader, Zeng Fuyuan.

"Your numbers are wrong. I don't see Mao Xingzhou, those two thugs, or the bank clerk with the missing finger. Where did they go?"

Chen Bin was too lazy to remember the names of those small fry, so he simply used their respective characteristics to describe them.

The thugs he was referring to were naturally Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi, while the bank employee with the severed finger was Li Ping, a colleague of Cheng Li and Song Yuewen.

"them……"

When these people were mentioned, Chi Feng hesitated to speak.

"explain."

Staring coldly at Chi Feng, Chen Bin was extremely impatient. He knew that everyone was in a survival killing game, and he, as the team leader, didn't even know where the team members were. Let alone him, anyone in his position would be in a bad mood.

As Chi Feng hesitated about whether to tell Chen Bin the truth, Song Yuewen spoke up.

She recounted everything that happened after everyone left, revealing that she had long disliked the behavior of the other individuals.

After Song Yuewen recounted what had happened, the group that had gone to find food finally understood what had occurred.

It turned out that not long after they left, Mao Xingzhou led the remaining new recruits to take action.

At first, their operation went relatively smoothly. Even when they encountered lone zombies, with Mao Xingzhou taking the lead, the others dared to bravely go up and finish them off.

Unexpectedly, after cleaning several rooms, Mao Xingzhou ordered everyone to split up and act separately, citing that the search was too slow.

There's no need to say more about Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi. These two thugs recognized Mao Xingzhou as their boss from the very beginning of the operation, showering him with all sorts of corny flattery as if it were free.

It has to be said that the energetic young man Mao Xingzhou was quite swayed by their act, and when he left, he didn't forget to give Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi a ride.

Speaking of their colleague Li Ping, Song Yuewen gritted her teeth in hatred. That woman really had no shame in order to survive, and she was frantically trying to win over Mao Xingzhou.

She had just called Cheng Li a vixen because she hugged Su Yu, and then openly seduced Mao Xingzhou. Her behavior was even worse than Cheng Li's. Song Yuewen felt that having worked with such a person was the biggest stain on her life.

"Fortunately, we figured out a few tricks. Before opening each room, we would knock on the door and listen for any movement inside. If there was no movement, we would open the door and go in. If there was movement, we would prepare for battle. However, this room was special. The zombie was hiding in the bedroom of the suite. We were worried about attracting the attention of the zombies in other rooms, so we knocked quietly and did not disturb the zombies in the bedroom. That's why Secretary Xu had an accident."

Song Yuewen explained it very carefully, knowing that they had gone to great lengths to survive.

"Knocking on doors to check for zombies is a method I came up with. Speaking of Secretary Xu's death, I also bear some responsibility."

Chi Feng stepped forward and took responsibility.

Hearing him say that, Su Yu couldn't help but find it a little funny. The other party didn't want to admit his mistake at all; he clearly intended to use this opportunity to attract Chen Bin's attention and make people think that he had some ability.

Chen Bin didn't reply, but instead looked at Song Yuewen and asked about the direction Mao Xingzhou and the others had left in.

Having received an affirmative answer, Chen Bin walked towards one end of the corridor without looking back, seemingly heading to find Mao Xingzhou and the others.

"Alright, I know you have a crappy gun. Stop holding it up. If you accidentally kill a newbie without protective clothing, you'll get points deducted."

Pushing aside Chi Feng, who was blocking the door to room 1607, Chu Tianyang walked into the suite.

Arriving beside Xu Zhiwen's corpse, Chu Tianyang took out a weapon from his spatial wristwatch and skillfully finished him off, completely eliminating the possibility of the corpse turning into a zombie.

Su Yu handed the two large bags of food she was carrying to Cheng Li and Song Yuewen.

"You two keep the food for me. If you get hungry, help yourself to whatever you like. I'm going to see what the commander is doing and if he needs any help."

Su Yu smiled at Cheng Li and Song Yuewen, then took out the M1911 pistol that Fu Xueying had given him.

When Cheng Li and Song Yuewen saw that Su Yu had gone out and was carrying a weapon, their eyes lit up.

The two women wanted to ask Su Yu how he obtained the weapon, whether it was an accidental find during his search for food, but now was not the time to ask. Cheng Li and Song Yuewen exchanged a glance and swallowed their words.

"I'll go too."

From the moment everyone arrived at the hotel and entered room 1603, Chi Feng had been secretly competing with Su Yu.

At this moment, Chi Feng certainly wouldn't let such a good opportunity to perform slip by.

Don't be fooled by Su Yu having a gun; I have one too, and in terms of firepower, I completely outclass my opponent.

The only difference between the two was a protective suit. Knowing his own advantages, Chi Feng never even considered engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the zombies.

The three veteran players made no move, and the other newcomers didn't seem inclined to follow suit.

Seeing Chi Feng volunteer, Su Yu shrugged, ignoring the other's provocative gaze, and headed straight in the direction Chen Bin had left.

With a gun in hand and wearing protective clothing, Su Yu was brimming with confidence. He walked quickly down the corridor on the sixteenth floor of the hotel and soon caught up with Chen Bin ahead of him.

Chen Bin stopped in front of a tightly closed door. Su Yu glanced around and saw that the doors of the several adjacent suites were all wide open.

Without much thought, Su Yu guessed that Mao Xingzhou and his group were hiding in the suite in front of them, but they didn't know what these guys were up to.

Without saying a word, Chen Bin kicked the door open with a flying kick. With a loud "bang," the door was kicked open by him.

Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi, who were inside the house, were genuinely startled by the sudden loud noise.

The two were drinking beer and eating when the can fell to the ground. As the golden liquid spilled out of the can, two dark spots quickly appeared on the bright red carpet.

Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi wanted to curse, but after seeing that the person was Chen Bin, they swallowed the curses that were on the tip of their tongues.

"Where are the others?"

With a gloomy face, Chen Bin walked into the house.

Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi opened their mouths, wanting to say something, but before they could utter a sound, faint moans of a woman came from one of the doors in the suite, which instantly attracted Chen Bin's attention.

Without saying a word, Chen Bin followed the sound to the door of the room and kicked it open, which was locked from the inside.

Suddenly, the unbearable scene in the room was laid bare before Su Yu's eyes.

"Tsk..."

Even though he had already guessed what was happening in the room, Su Yu still couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement when he actually witnessed it all.

Li Ping, the bank employee who had lost two fingers, was lying face down on the bed, her skirt pulled up to her waist and her underwear haphazardly draped over her right ankle. Mao Xingzhou was on top of her, doing his shameful thing.

Following Su Yu into the room, Chi Feng also witnessed this scene and immediately turned green with anger.

"Li Ping, you..."

Chi Feng never dreamed that while he was out there fighting zombies with Cheng Li, Song Yuewen, Zeng Fuyuan, and Xu Zhiwen, Li Ping, being a woman, not only gained Mao Xingzhou's protection but also slept with him.

What kind of mess is this!

Chi Feng really wanted to rush into the room, grab Li Ping, and slap both of them across the face.

"Boss, boss..."

Seeing Chen Bin standing at the door of the room, Mao Xingzhou panicked.

Hastily shaking off Li Ping, Mao Xingzhou tried to put on his clothes, but he couldn't squeeze his bulging body into the tight-fitting protective suit.

Chen Bin stared intently at Mao Xingzhou, his eyes seeming to spit fire.

"I'll be waiting for you in room 1603."

After leaving those words behind, Chen Bin turned and left without looking back.

Su Yu sneered inwardly, but outwardly remained calm and collected, leaving the room without leaving a trace.

Mao Xingzhou was the third to come out. Ignoring Su Yu, who was standing at the door and deliberately not looking at him, he hurried towards room 1603.

Li Ping was the fourth person to leave the room, tidying her clothes as she went.

"You slut!"

Chi Feng's curses came from inside the room.

Li Ping must have heard the curse, but she ignored Chi Feng completely, as if he wasn't cursing her. The woman walked towards room 1603.

Chi Feng, Lu Renjia, and Xiao Bingyi walked out of the room almost one after the other. Unlike the angry expression on the bank employee's face, the two thugs looked somewhat uneasy.

Su Yu followed the group at a leisurely pace. When they arrived at the door of room 1603, he saw Cheng Li and Song Yuewen, who were carrying plastic bags, standing at the door waiting for him.

"What happened?"

Cheng Li and Song Yuewen were a little hungry, but neither of them stole any of the food Su Yu had brought back.

Despite the other party saying they could eat it, Cheng Li and Song Yuewen still felt it wasn't right to do so.

Upon seeing Su Yu return, Cheng Li spoke first, inquiring about what had happened over there.

"Don't ask anything, don't say anything, just take your things inside, find a corner to sit in, and eat."

Su Yu didn't explain much; after saying that, he went inside.

When he came in, Mao Xingzhou was apologizing to Chen Bin. Lu Renjia and Xiao Bingyi were standing in the distance, looking at a loss. Li Ping was sitting to the side with a pout, like a wronged little wife.

Chi Feng's expression still showed some resentment.

Zeng Fuyuan was a seasoned veteran. Knowing he couldn't get a word in edgewise, he simply pretended nothing was wrong, since it wasn't him who was going to die.

An Qiluo, Chu Tianyang, and Fu Xueying each did their own thing and showed no intention of interfering.

Cheng Li and Song Yuewen weren't stupid, so they naturally guessed some of the inside story. Following Su Yu's instructions, the two hid in a corner and just ate.

"I told you to lead the newbies to clear the zombies on the sixteenth floor, but you ran away halfway, causing one of the newbies to die. Are you a fucking idiot? Don't you think a newbie's life matters?"

With his feet propped up on the coffee table in the middle of the sofa, Chen Bin sat on the sofa with his arms crossed, tilting his head to look at Mao Xingzhou.

"Boss, I was wrong. I didn't expect them to be so stupid that they couldn't even do such a small thing. I cleaned most of the rooms with Lu Renjia, Xiao Bingyi, and Li Ping. We only rested after we finished. They were only responsible for a few rooms. Although someone died, the responsibility is not entirely mine."

Mao Xingzhou tried his best to explain, blaming all the mistakes on the newcomers' lack of ambition.

"Nonsense! We've done our best. It's you who's irresponsible, abandoning us. If there were any important matters to attend to, we wouldn't have anything to say. The problem is that you actually disregarded our lives just to sleep with Li Ping. That's outrageous! You're not acting like a seasoned player at all."

Chi Feng was so angry that he publicly denounced Mao Xingzhou's behavior.

"Hey, you motherfucker, since when did you, a newbie, have the audacity to criticize me?"

Mao Xingzhou, with his fiery temper, couldn't hold back any longer and made a move to teach Chi Feng a lesson.

"Let everyone tell me, is this reasonable?"

Chi Feng looked at the crowd, trying to get support from others.

An Qiluo, Chu Tianyang, and Fu Xueying ignored Chi Feng, while Li Ping, Lu Renjia, and Xiao Bingyi sided with Mao Xingzhou.

The remaining Su Yu, Cheng Li, and Song Yuewen hid in a corner, silently eating, with an attitude of indifference and detachment.

Only Zeng Fuyuan, who was disliked by everyone and considered a burden, realized that his position was somewhat awkward, and thus stepped forward to smooth things over for Chi Feng.

"No matter what, as the leader of the group, Boss Chen must have his own solutions. We're all from the same place, so let's not fight amongst ourselves. The most important thing to discuss right now is how to survive."

What could Zeng Fuyuan do? He was helpless too.

You have to understand that Xu Zhiwen was ruined by him, and right now the only person he can use is Chi Feng.

At this point, doing Chi Feng a favor would definitely make him extremely grateful.

At the same time, he skillfully shifted the topic without offending anyone. Having been in officialdom for many years, Zeng Fuyuan's greatest skill was to smooth things over.

As for Xu Zhiwen, who was tricked to death by him, Zeng Fuyuan felt no pity at all. If the other party hadn't searched that room for him, he would definitely have been the one to die!

"Alright, get out of here. If this happens again, don't blame me for making sure the first thing I do every time I log into the game is castrate you."

Chen Bin glared at Mao Xingzhou, but of course he wouldn't actually punish him.

The reason for doing this is simply to put on a show, to give the newlyweds an explanation, and to demonstrate the group leader's authority.

Currently, apart from Chi Feng still holding onto this matter, no one else has expressed any opinion, so Chen Bin's goal can be considered achieved.

"Your name is Chi Feng, right?"

Chen Bin turned his gaze to Chi Feng and asked him.

"Yes."

Chi Feng quickly stepped forward and seized the opportunity.

"You did well. We'll punish that bastard later. Right now, we're all in a survival killing game, so there's no time to worry about such things. As the saying goes, mistakes can be punished later, but merits must be rewarded on the spot. I'll replenish the bullets you used. Also, here's some food. Eat more to replenish your strength. We need to survive in this world for fifteen days, so everyone needs to be in top condition and ready to deal with the upcoming battles and any unexpected situations that may occur at any time."

Chen Bin took out two magazines and some food, and placed them next to him.

"Thank you, boss."

Chi Feng felt flattered and thanked them profusely before quickly taking the items away.

Li Ping rolled her eyes. In her opinion, Chi Feng was no better; he was clearly trying to climb up by stepping on Mao Xingzhou.

Now everyone knows about her and Mao Xingzhou sleeping together; the two are practically in the same boat.

If Mao Xingzhou is finished, then she will be finished too. How could Li Ping not hate Chi Feng for his actions?

Time flew by and it was lunchtime. A deathly silence fell over room 1603 as everyone ate in silence.

Su Yu, Cheng Li, and Song Yuewen ate the food he brought back. Chen Bin, An Qiluo, Chu Tianyang, and Fu Xueying, needless to say, were all veteran players who had never lacked food from the beginning.

Mao Xingzhou didn't eat all the food himself; he also took out some food and shared it with his two newly recruited underlings.

Li Ping's time in bed wasn't for nothing. Mao Xingzhou not only gave her bread and sausages, but also a jar of fruit, which made Li Ping feel very proud in front of her two female colleagues.

Chi Feng and Zeng Fuyuan got together. Although they didn't do anything particularly outstanding, the fat leader managed to trick Chen Bin into giving him some food by using his silver tongue. He managed to fill his stomach.

Su Yu saw it clearly and couldn't help but chuckle to himself. There were as many people as there were schemes!

Chen Bin, An Qiluo, Chu Tianyang, Fu Xueying, and Mao Xingzhou are in the same group; there is no doubt about that.

However, as everyone entered the game, after three new players died, the new players split into several groups around the five veteran players.

Chi Feng and Zeng Fuyuan are in cahoots, and the two of them will definitely follow Chen Bin's lead.

Li Ping, Lu Renjia, and Xiao Bingyi went to live with the spirited young man Mao Xingzhou.

With Cheng Li and Song Yuewen on his side, if he had to choose an experienced player to follow, Su Yu would prefer to stay by An Qiluo's side and see if she was trustworthy.

In fact, Fu Xueying would have been a good person to rely on, but unfortunately she has a dim-witted husband.

Su Yu would rather earn his own living than live under someone else's roof and have to act according to the whims of a brute like Chu Tianyang.

In this awkward atmosphere, everyone finished their first meal in this world, and then it was time to assign rooms.
