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

Using his binoculars, Su Yu was able to see clearly what was happening on the street below the hotel.

At this moment, more than twenty Lickers were crawling around a bus, on the roof of which stood a huge figure carrying a multi-barreled Gatling gun on its back.

There are four zombies inside the bus: three female zombies and one male zombie.

It was the same group of mutated zombies he had seen before!

Seeing this, Su Yu felt a chill run down his spine, and unconsciously tightened his grip on the binoculars.

Click...

Su Yu cracked the plastic casing of the binoculars by squeezing it. Hearing the sound, he snapped back to his senses and asked An Qiluo to confirm that what he saw was the mutated zombie that had just been mentioned.

"That's definitely not simple."

Fu Xueying nodded, acknowledging what Su Yu had said earlier.

These mutated zombies are indeed quite different from other mutated zombies.

No wonder Su Yu made a special explanation; anyone who sees these mutated zombies will be deeply impressed.

"What should we do?"

Chu Tianyang turned his gaze to Chen Bin, who was least good at doing things by doing things with his brain.

"Respond to all changes with constancy."

After a brief moment of contemplation, Chen Bin made a decision.

So what if five strangely behaving mutant zombies appear?

Chen Bin didn't take the twenty-odd Lickers seriously at all. If he went all out, he was absolutely confident that he could take down the group of Lickers within five minutes.

As for the tough male zombie that Su Yu mentioned, Chu Tianyang and Fu Xueying can handle it.

The driver zombie was rather thin and shouldn't pose much of a threat. An Qiluo was responsible for holding off the remaining three female zombies.

Their fighting strength is more than sufficient, far from the point where they would abandon this hard-won foothold and flee in all directions.

"Don't panic, everyone. Once the mutated zombies break into the hotel, we'll immediately split into groups, disperse them as much as possible, and then take them down one by one."

Following the previous line of thought, Chen Bin assigned combat tasks to everyone present.

He kept Su Yu and Mao Xingzhou as reserves, just in case.

Like Su Yu, Cheng Li, Lu Renjia, Chi Feng, and Zeng Fuyuan, who were also newcomers, were divided into two groups by Chen Bin.

Cheng Li and Chi Feng followed Su Yu's lead and temporarily obeyed his arrangements.

Lu Renjia and Zeng Fuyuan followed Mao Xingzhou and acted according to his orders.

"whispering sound......"

Upon learning that he had to listen to Su Yu, Chi Feng was quite dissatisfied. If the occasion hadn't been inappropriate, he would have definitely raised objections.

They're all newcomers, why should I listen to Su Yu?

Could it be that this guy just got lucky and activated the seed, or that he survived by sheer luck and didn't die outside?

Cheng Li naturally had no objection to Chen Bin's arrangement; she couldn't wait to act with Su Yu.

"Cheng Li, you haven't forgotten how your aunt taught you to use a gun, have you?"

Su Yu turned his head and looked at Cheng Li, who had somehow moved to his side again.

"no."

Cheng Li smiled sweetly; she had already guessed what Su Yu was going to do.

"That's good. You can use this gun for self-defense. Don't fire it unless absolutely necessary, so as not to accidentally injure your teammates."

Su Yu took off his MP5 from his chest and handed it to Cheng Li.

"Thank you."

Cheng Li was so excited as she took the submachine gun from Su Yu that she stammered.

Su Yu gave her two more magazines and told Cheng Li to keep them safe.

Seeing this, Chi Feng felt even more resentful. He did have a rifle, but compared to Cheng Li, he lacked a protective suit.

Thinking that Su Yu was taking such good care of Cheng Li, there was a possibility that the two of them were having an affair. Chi Feng vowed that if he could survive, he would do whatever it took to get a seed, awaken a special ability, and outdo this guy.

"Hey, look! What are those mutated zombies doing?"

Just as Chi Feng was lost in his fantasies, unable to extricate himself, a gasp erupted from the crowd, instantly pulling him back to reality.

Holding binoculars, Su Yu had already seen a female zombie get off the car, and then, with the help of the muscular male zombie, climb onto the roof and sit on the shoulder of the tall, muscular male zombie.

Completely disregarding her own image, the female zombie raised her head and made a roaring motion.

Because the floor they were on was too high, they couldn't hear what it was yelling, but they could clearly see that after the female zombie finished yelling, the ordinary zombies downstairs froze in place for a moment, and then rushed towards the hotel.

"This female zombie can control ordinary zombies?"

As the horde of corpses gradually approached the hotel, Fu Xueying looked at Su Yu with a puzzled expression and asked with her delicate brows furrowed.

"I don't know either."

After swallowing hard, Su Yu finally understood why there were more than twenty Lickers around these few mutated zombies.

Nine times out of ten, he was controlled by these mutated zombies and was acting on their orders.

Luckily, I didn't overestimate myself and act rashly to fight them head-on. Otherwise, if I had been entangled by these mutated zombies, I would have been trapped with nowhere to go.

"Everyone evacuate the hotel immediately! Our target is that bus parked at the entrance!"

Chen Bin also changed his mind and hurriedly told the people around him that he realized he had oversimplified the matter.

If these mutated zombies did not have the ability to control the horde, they could certainly defend their position and fight back step by step, relying on the hotel's terrain.

The problem lies with the mutated zombies, which can command ordinary zombies to attack them, making guarding the hotel less meaningful.

Looking at the entire Water Bear City, the number of ordinary zombies is at least several hundred thousand, if not a million.

Zombies don't get sleepy or tired; their sheer numbers are enough to wear them down.

"Get out of here! What are you standing there for?!"

Mao Xingzhou shouted at Lu Renjia, who was still in a daze. After saying this, he didn't care whether Lu Renjia was dead or alive, and took off chasing after Chen Bin.

"Let's go too."

Pulling Cheng Li along, Su Yu followed closely behind An Qiluo.

As for Chi Feng, who was always dissatisfied with him, Su Yu didn't even bother to greet him, since the guy hadn't left him with a good impression anyway.

The group took the elevator and headed towards the hotel lobby on the first floor.

Looking at the figures reflected on the metal walls of the elevator, Su Yu couldn't help but wonder if he would become a Licker and abandon everyone to leave if the outside were blocked by zombies.

With the Licker's superb climbing ability, breaking through the encirclement shouldn't be too difficult for him.

Moreover, Chen Bin and others were there to draw fire for him.

With his gaze falling on Cheng Li, An Qiluo, and Fu Xueying in the crowd, Su Yu pondered whether he could take one more person with him after becoming a Licker.

The problem isn't too big, the main issue is who to bring along.

Cheng Li is very obedient, but unfortunately she is too weak. Apart from being a bait, she is of little use.

Fu Xueying is quite capable, but judging from the affection between her and Chu Tianyang, if that brute doesn't leave, this married woman certainly won't leave either.

Sending him to save Chu Tianyang is worse than not saving anyone at all.

Therefore, the only remaining option is An Qiluo!

Su Yu thought to himself, "You can't blame him for being biased."

After all, everyone is in a survival killing game in the Rubik's Cube space, and who isn't trying to survive!

And he, of course, would make the choice that was most beneficial to himself.

As they stepped out of the elevator, before they could even find their footing, a considerable number of zombies had already poured into the hotel lobby on the first floor.

Without exception, these zombies were all ordinary zombies, but the group was far from relaxed.

Outside the hotel, there were hundreds or even thousands of ordinary zombies, emitting low growls, ready to rush in at any moment and overwhelm everyone in this terrifying horde.

The air was filled with a nauseating stench of decay, the very scent of zombies.

"Everyone, keep formation. Old Chu, you two, charge ahead with me. Little Aunt, you lead Su Yu and Mao Xingzhou, and bring the newbies who haven't used seeds before. No matter what happens, the newbies must not fall behind, otherwise don't expect anyone to come and save you."

When the time came, Chen Bin also demonstrated the responsibility of a team leader.

He charged ahead, heading straight for the ordinary zombies that were gathering around them in the hotel lobby.

Seeing Chen Bin rush towards the horde of corpses, Mao Xingzhou felt that this wave was in the bag.

"Useless trash, open your dog eyes and see the difference between having ability and not having ability!"

Even at this point, Mao Xingzhou still hadn't forgotten to mock Su Yu, using the fact that the other party hadn't awakened any special abilities to mess with his mentality.

When people are in a state of extreme speechlessness, they really want to laugh.

At least, that's how Su Yu is right now.

Too lazy to pay attention to Mao Xingzhou, Su Yu simply ignored the idiot and pretended he was talking nonsense.

Concentrating on his own, partly to avoid falling behind, and partly to observe the special abilities of Chen Bin and the others, Su Yu focused all his attention on observing his surroundings.

"A bunch of bastards, you really think I'm afraid of you?"

As the distance between the two sides drew closer, Chen Bin roared, and a powerful aura suddenly erupted from his body, which was shrouded in a faint, fiery red mist.

"This is......"

Su Yu stared wide-eyed at Chen Bin in disbelief.

"This is called 'Explosive Growth.' Only players who have activated their special abilities using a seed and whose strength has reached Tier 1 or above can enter Explosive Growth mode. You, a piece of trash without even a special ability, will never experience this feeling in your entire life. Boss is a strongman who has entered Tier 2. Just watch how he uses his special abilities to crush these zombies!"

Mao Xingzhou did his best to provoke Su Yu, but little did he know that his words would answer the questions in Su Yu's mind.

"Power surge..."

Su Yu repeated the two words in a low voice. Upon learning that Chen Bin's strength had reached the second level, his feelings were quite complicated.

Chen Bin is at the second tier, so what about An Qiluo?

Despite her quiet demeanor, anyone with a modicum of sense can see that she holds a very powerful position within Chen Bin's team.

Even Chen Bin, the leader of the group, was very respectful when speaking to An Qiluo.

What level have Chu Tianyang and Fu Xueying reached? Even if their strength is not as good as Chen Bin's, these two should have entered the first level, right?

Finally, there was Mao Xingzhou, whom he regarded as an idiot. This guy was either at the first level or had not yet broken through to the first level, but one thing was certain: he had definitely awakened a special ability.

"Go to hell, all of you!"

Chen Bin's roar rang out again. Before Su Yu and the others could see what he took out of his spatial watch, the man swung his arm and threw the thing at the zombies at the entrance of the hotel lobby.

boom......

The object Chen Bin threw out exploded without warning the instant it touched the first zombie.

boom!

What happened next was even more unexpected for Su Yu. Instead of spreading towards where they were, the flames from the explosion surged towards the horde of zombies behind the zombie, instantly engulfing a large number of them.

The flames, like a fierce fire dragon, swept through the horde of zombies, instantly obliterating any zombies caught in their path.

The roller shutter door in the hotel lobby on the first floor was also blown to pieces by him. Chen Bin threw things at the horde of corpses as he ran.

After staring at the other person for a long time, Su Yu finally realized that what Chen Bin had thrown out were actually bullets!

Why?

Su Yu couldn't understand why an ordinary bullet, after passing through Chen Bin's hands and being thrown by him, could produce such a violent explosion.

Chen Bin's ability seems to be related to fire, but what exactly are its effects?

Without time to think, the group crawled through the shattered roller shutter door and arrived at the hotel's courtyard.

"Old Chu, you two go and seize the bus. My ability has too wide a range and could easily destroy that bus."

Chen Bin gave orders to Chu Tianyang and Fu Xueying behind him. This was also the reason why he was unwilling to activate his ability when he encountered zombie dogs while leading the team to find food in the early stages of the game.

Without wasting words, Chu Tianyang and Fu Xueying immediately bypassed Chen Bin and rushed straight towards the bus.

Chu Tianyang's lips curled up slightly. Rather than hiding in the hotel and passively defending against the zombie attack, he preferred to be the one attacking.

"Gravity Zone!"

A roar came from Chu Tianyang's mouth.

Chu Tianyang's figure became slightly blurred, as if shrouded in a layer of semi-transparent mist. Immediately afterward, the zombies within thirty yards of him all froze.

It's a gravity-based superpower!

Su Yu was also within Chu Tianyang's gravity field, but he did not feel any discomfort.

However, listening to Chu Tianyang's roar and seeing the zombies' disheveled appearance, Su Yu could guess Chu Tianyang's type of ability even with a fool's eye.

"The Diamond Queen!"

Fu Xueying also activated her special ability, and her body rapidly crystallized, with a layer of sky-blue aura, like flowing liquid, enveloping the woman.

As she passed by the zombies, Fu Xueying swung her hand and slashed at them.

Even though she wasn't using any weapons, her palms sliced ​​through the zombies like a sharp blade cutting through tofu. Every zombie hit by her attacks was decapitated.

In Su Yu's opinion, Fu Xueying's moves were wide and sweeping, completely abandoning defense, and were ridiculously cool, almost unlike a woman.

However, judging from Fu Xueying's appearance, Su Yu estimated that her ability itself had a considerable defensive effect, and with the addition of the protective suit, she really didn't need to worry about so much.

"These are all very useful and valuable abilities."

Su Yu couldn't help but sigh, even if these abilities didn't reach the SSR level, they were more than enough to be rated as SR.

Most importantly, these abilities are well-suited for use in the survival killing game in Rubik's Cube Space, greatly increasing the player's survival rate.

Chen Bin's ability is related to fire, Chu Tianyang's ability is linked to gravity, and Fu Xueying's ability allows her entire body to become diamond.

Currently, the only ones Su Yu hasn't figured out about are An Qiluo and Mao Xingzhou.

Mao Xingzhou never activated his special abilities in front of Su Yu.

As for An Qiluo's special ability, recalling his battle with Mao Xingzhou in room 1603 of the hotel, Su Yu guessed that his sudden mental blank was most likely related to this woman's ability!
