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

To be honest, Su Yu felt a chill run down his spine the moment he saw Cheng Li's wound.

This woman is beyond saving!

Judging from the amount of bleeding from the wound, the glass shard that pierced Cheng Li's neck must have injured her major artery.

The reason she hadn't died was because the fragments were embedded in her wounds, which helped slow down the loss of blood.

If the fragments were pulled out, Cheng Li would probably die in his arms in less than half a minute.

Su Yu's brows were furrowed so tightly they could almost crush a crab.

Since entering the game, he had never felt so heavy-hearted.

It felt as if a huge boulder was pressing on Su Yu's chest, making it difficult for him to breathe.

"Am I...am I going to die?"

Lying in Su Yu's arms, feeling the warmth of his embrace, Cheng Li whispered.

Due to massive blood loss, Cheng Li's face was deathly pale, and her voice was barely audible.

Hearing Cheng Li's words, Su Yu's tense expression relaxed at this moment.

With his eyelids lowered, Su Yu brought his mouth close to Cheng Li's ear and spoke to the woman in his arms in the gentlest tone he could think of.

"How could that be? With me here, you won't die!"

Su Yu couldn't bear to tell Cheng Li the truth, and even less wanted to shatter the last glimmer of hope in her heart as she lay dying.

"Oh......"

Cheng Li gave a soft hum, as if she wanted to laugh, but the rapid loss of life prevented her from even making a gesture.

"There's no need to force yourself. If you feel tired, you can take a nap."

Su Yu whispered in Cheng Li's ear, his tone as gentle as a breeze across a lake, trying to create a peaceful dream for her with this tender lie.

Su Yu could clearly feel that Cheng Li's body was trembling slightly, a mixture of resentment and fear at the impending end of her life, and an infinite attachment to the world.

Even though she tried to remain calm, her body language betrayed her.

Cheng Li's eyelids slowly closed, then suddenly opened again; she wanted to see the world one more time.

Even though this isn't where she was born, there are still some real things in this fake world.

In her slightly unfocused pupils, Su Yu's image was reflected. Cheng Li's lips moved, as if she were talking to him, or as if she were talking to herself.

"You're such a gentle liar!"

"Speaking of which, I've received a lot of care from you. Without you, I definitely wouldn't be alive today."

"It's a pity that I always wanted to repay you and help you, but I ended up making a mess of things and couldn't help you at all. I even dragged you down."

"If I could, I would really like to live with you. But now it seems I was just wishful thinking."

"I'm not suited to live in such a cruel world, but you're different. You have a calm personality, an extremely strong ability to adapt, and a tenacity that most people don't have. It's as if you were born to be here."

"You must live on, live on for me too..."

Cheng Li tightened her grip on Su Yu's clothes, then loosened it, and her voice abruptly stopped.

Life is like a drop of water falling into the desert, vanishing in an instant. She died in Su Yu's arms just like that.

Hearing what Cheng Li said during her final moments of lucidity, Su Yu felt even more depressed.

Even though he didn't like this woman and knew that she was only trying to survive in this cruel world, seeing her die like that still deeply affected Su Yu.

Is this what men are like?

We don't cherish what we have until we lose it, and then we regret it.

If time could be reversed, Su Yu swore to the heavens that he would never let Cheng Li die so meaninglessly.

Thus, all the newcomers who entered this survival killing game, except for Su Yu who chose the protective suit at the beginning and later used the seed to activate his special ability, have been eliminated!

"Za Mao, go and defend the middle section of the carriage with Su Yu. Old Chu and I are enough here. If there is an emergency, don't hold back, activate your special ability immediately."

With Chu Tianyang's gravity field suppressing the situation, Chen Bin gradually adapted to the current combat rhythm.

Although it was impossible to completely wipe out the zombies chasing after them, it wasn't so easy for these monsters to reach the back of the bus.

Chen Bin glanced at Su Yu, who was holding Cheng Li, and, still feeling uneasy, handed over the middle section of the carriage to guard himself.

"Boss, just you wait and see!"

Mao Xingzhou patted his chest and said, then withdrew from the battle, giving space to Chen Bin and Chu Tianyang.

Mao Xingzhou witnessed the fighting that took place in the middle of the carriage.

This result was not unexpected.

If there's anything Mao Xingzhou regrets, it's that Su Yu didn't die, but Cheng Li and Zeng Fuyuan did.

In Mao Xingzhou's opinion, Cheng Li was quite attractive, and it was a real pity that she died without ever sleeping with him.

As for Zeng Fuyuan, the fat leader is indeed a coward who only drags the team down, but he will not go against his wishes.

Only Su Yu, the guy Mao Xingzhou disliked no matter how he looked at him, survived, much to Mao Xingzhou's frustration.

As he strode towards the middle of the carriage, passing by Su Yu, Mao Xingzhou couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

"Are you ever going to stop? There are zombies everywhere outside, and you're just sitting here holding a corpse, spacing out. Are you afraid she'll get too cold and want to take advantage of her while she's still warm?"

Mao Xingzhou, who considered himself accustomed to seeing corpses, despised people like Su Yu the most, and his words were undeniably vicious.

"Don't think you can talk nonsense just because you have teeth in your ass. Say one more word, and I'll fight you to the death!"

Putting aside people like Mao Xingzhou, the more respect you give him, the more he takes advantage of you.

Su Yu was already in a bad mood, and this guy was still provoking him, so he had to fight back.

Su Yu still has this much temper!

Moreover, Su Yu was not simply threatening Mao Xingzhou. If he was provoked, he might actually fight to the death with him.

He's now a typical example of someone with nothing to lose; things have progressed to this point, and Su Yu has nothing left to worry about.

After setting Cheng Li's body down, Su Yu looked towards the back of the bus and saw Chen Bin and Chu Tianyang still there, fighting against the zombies chasing the bus.

"If we keep running like this, when will it ever end?"

Su Yu frowned, his gaze fixed on Chen Bin, the leader of the group. This was the first time he had questioned Chen Bin's decision in front of everyone.

About ten minutes had passed since the Red Cube issued its announcement, and seeing that Chen Bin couldn't come up with a solution, Su Yu decided not to let things continue.

Upon hearing Su Yu's words, Chen Bin's face darkened, and he involuntarily increased the force with which he threw the bullet.

"Hey, you're something else, you're even questioning the boss's orders now?"

This was undoubtedly the scene Mao Xingzhou most wanted to see.

Almost without thinking, Mao Xingzhou fanned the flames, hoping a conflict would break out between the two.

At that time, without him having to lift a finger, Chen Bin would take care of this thorn in his side.

"If you have any thoughts, feel free to share them!"

An Qiluo, who had been staying by the driver's seat and was responsible for protecting Fu Xueying's safety, spoke up.

Her words also helped Su Yu out of the predicament, effectively silencing Chen Bin's rebuke that was on the tip of his tongue.

Chen Bin still had to give this young aunt some face.

Mao Xingzhou pouted, wanting to say that An Qiluo was being nosy, but looking at her expression, he didn't dare to say it.

The real reason that made Mao Xingzhou shrink back was not because An Qiluo was so beautiful, but because she could kill him as easily as slaughtering a chicken or a dog!

"I think the most urgent task right now is to kill these mutants in the shortest amount of time and complete the mission issued by the Red Cube."

"However, as the bus we were on with the mutants went further and further away, more and more zombies joined them along the way, which resulted in the number of monsters not decreasing, but increasing instead."

"At this rate, we'll be worn down sooner or later. After all, zombies never tire, but humans can't fight forever."

Su Yu analyzed the current situation and believed that there were smart people in the team who had already seen through this problem.

Let's leave Fu Xueying aside; Chen Bin and An Qiluo must have thought of these things as well.

As for that brute Chu Tianyang and that idiot Mao Xingzhou, Su Yu was too lazy to investigate what was going on in their heads.

Hearing Su Yu's words, Chen Bin's face darkened even more.

"Stop with the nonsense, just tell me what you plan to do."

Chen Bin interrupted Su Yu's speech because he had already seen through these things, but he hadn't yet come up with a solution.

My suggestion is to use the strategy of "Tian Ji's horse racing" (a Chinese idiom referring to a famous Chinese horse racing strategy

Separated by half a bus compartment, Su Yu's gaze met Chen Bin's, without any attempt to look away.

"I am a top-class horse, quickly give me Tian Ji."

Mao Xingzhou laughed with unbridled gusto, seemingly eager for chaos and wishing Su Yu and Chen Bin would fight right there and then.

Su Yu certainly understood the ambiguity in Mao Xingzhou's words, but he had no intention of paying attention to this idiot at the moment, and was even less willing to respond to the other party's provocation.

Seeing that no one responded to him, Mao Xingzhou felt as if he had punched cotton.

"Explain in detail, how exactly did Tian Ji's horse race work?"

Chen Bin calmed down at this point and realized that Su Yu was quite quick-witted.

They actually came up with a solution in such a short time.

If Su Yu's proposed plan is feasible, then this guy certainly has the potential to become the team's strategist.

For someone who had used the seed but couldn't even activate their special abilities, Chen Bin felt this was an unexpected surprise.

If Su Yu can survive this survival killing game, Chen Bin wouldn't mind giving him a chance and allowing him to truly join his team.

"What I mean by Tian Ji's horse racing strategy is very simple: everyone should run away separately. If the mutated zombies want to chase, they will have to split up and send several groups. This gives us an opportunity. Those who are weaker should try to hold off the enemy, while those who are stronger should quickly finish the battle and then rush to support the others."

Su Yu's words gave Chen Bin a glimmer of hope, but he quickly thought of another possibility.

Before Chen Bin could even speak, Mao Xingzhou jumped out first.

Despite his slightly dim-witted nature, Mao Xingzhou possesses an unparalleled talent for stirring up trouble.

"What if the mutated zombies don't do what you say and instead all go after one of them?"

What Mao Xingzhou said was exactly what Chen Bin was thinking.

"Then he's just unlucky. This gives the others plenty of time to prepare for the next battle, doesn't it?"

Su Yu rolled her eyes at Mao Xingzhou and replied irritably.

If a mutated zombie is determined to kill someone, what can he do?

If someone does something that attracts the attention of mutated zombies, wouldn't everyone who stays together be doomed?

If it weren't for his own limited strength, which made him unable to kill the five mutants and the zombie army they controlled, Su Yu would not have wanted to waste his breath arguing with Chen Bin, Chu Tianyang, and Mao Xingzhou here.

In this team, the only people Su Yu cares about are An Qiluo and Fu Xueying, since he owes them favors!

After thinking it over carefully, Chen Bin felt that what Su Yu said was indeed a good idea.

"Splitting up is fine, but we can't afford any unnecessary sacrifices. We need to maintain at least a minimum level of combat strength. Even if we can't eliminate the mutants, we have to hold them off."

Looking at the six people in the carriage, Chen Bin quickly came up with an idea.

Dividing these six people into three groups of two would be perfect.

Chen Bin immediately began to work on grouping people.

"Old Chu, you two are in one group, Auntie and I are in another, and Su Yu and Mao Xingzhou are in the third. We'll find a suitable place to slow down. Auntie and I will get out first, then drive a little further before Su Yu and Mao Xingzhou jump out. Old Chu, you two are the last to act. Make sure you take care of the mutated zombies chasing you."

If we were to say which of the three groups Chen Bin was least at ease with, it would have to be Su Yu and Mao Xingzhou's group.

Mao Xingzhou was the weakest of the five; he couldn't even enter his "burst" state.

Chu Tianyang and Fu Xueying were both first-tier explosive beings, while he himself was a second-tier explosive being.

An Qiluo is the strongest, having already reached the third-tier explosive power level, but unfortunately, her abilities are not suited to dealing with this type of situation.

This is also why Chen Bin placed Su Yu and Mao Xingzhou's group in the middle of the order.

Even if these two can't deal with the mutated zombies chasing them, the other two groups can come to their aid once they take action.

Chen Bin's plan wasn't due to his exceptional character, but rather because the Red Cube explicitly demanded that they kill the five mutated zombies, otherwise the mission wouldn't be considered complete.

If this condition weren't available, Chen Bin wouldn't care whether Su Yu and Mao Xingzhou lived or died.

Su Yu was a newcomer who had just entered the Rubik's Cube Space and was participating in the survival killing game for the first time.

As for Mao Xingzhou, Chen Bin had long been fed up with him; he was just a troublemaker.

Seeing Chen Bin's arrangement, Su Yu was speechless.

To be honest, he would prefer to be in a group with An Qiluo. No matter what, even if they couldn't defeat the mutants, Su Yu could still help them escape.

In Su Yu's view, Chen Bin was deliberately putting him and Mao Xingzhou in the same group, squeezing out his remaining value and leaving them to fend for themselves.

Ironically, Mao Xingzhou addressed Chen Bin as "boss" repeatedly, calling him so affectionately!
