"This...are you sure?"

It seems that not being a human being is much better than being an irrational monster forever. After thinking for a long time, Liu Yun, who was obviously a little shaken, asked this question. However, Yu Huan's answer undoubtedly made him choke:

"How should I know? I've never eaten this."

"..."

Well, that makes a lot of sense and is irrefutable.

"But I can guarantee that there is no danger."

After all, it is a product of its own system, so Yu Huan can still give this guarantee. At most, it will be of no use. Anyway, the condition of those zombies and mutant beasts can't be any worse, right?

Yu Huan's words caused Liu Yun to fall into a long silence. After a while, he finally seemed to make up his mind. Liu Yun then looked at the fruit in Yu Huan's hand and said with gritted teeth:

"I need to discuss this matter with Sister Momo. After all, this is her business. I'm just a bystander."

"Okay, whatever you want!"

Originally, the purpose of looking for Liuyun was to be here. After all, Yuhuan and Qianmo were not yet that familiar. If they rashly took out the fruit, it would arouse suspicion. However, Liuyun's words were obviously different. Therefore, Yuhuan nodded in agreement with Liuyun's words.

"Then wait for me for a moment..."

With this thing, Liuyun obviously didn't even have the heart to play games anymore. He stood up and prepared to go downstairs, but suddenly turned back and asked:

"By the way, how expensive are your fruits? How many do you have?"

It was obvious that he thought that Yuhuan's fruit was also bought, and considering the high price, if that was the case, Liuyun naturally needed to find a way to make up for the price.

After all, even brothers settle accounts clearly, and even between close friends, it is natural to exchange gifts, so...

"It's not expensive. The entire Helm Underworld is mine. I usually throw it around like a toy."

Yu Huan answered casually.

"...Excuse me, farewell!"

Forget about the gift-giving and reciprocity, the rich don’t need these, what they need... is thigh pendants!

Miss Yuhuan, do you think I'm suitable?

191. Distribution

Liuyun went to find Qianmo, and he didn't know what the two of them talked about. After all, it was a choice between the two of them, and Yuhuan would not plan to eavesdrop on anything.

Anyway, no matter what choice she made, it didn't matter to her. So Yu Huan just played games there peacefully. It wasn't until the black rice was ready and Liu Yun came to call her for dinner that he gave her a vague answer:

"Sorry, Sister Momo is a little confused and said she needs to think about it."

It was a reasonable answer. Yu Huan nodded and didn't care too much. After all, if he were in this situation, he would have had a similar reaction. After all, anyone who suddenly encountered this kind of thing, not to mention whether there would be doubts in their hearts, just the thought of giving up the human identity and living as a monster from then on, was obviously not something that everyone could easily accept.

Of course, except for heitai.

During lunch, Qianmo did not show any abnormality. She was as gentle as ever, looking like the older sister next door or a gentle young woman. The gentle aura that came from her heart undoubtedly made everyone at the table, including Yuhuan, feel as if they were basking in the spring breeze.

After eating and drinking, everyone tacitly agreed not to go out to do anything on the last afternoon. Instead, they chose to return to their rooms and use their own ways to have a good rest and adjust their mood so that there would be no mistakes when they went on the mission tomorrow.

The only one who chose to go out was probably Kosaka. He responded to this with a shy attitude like a young man. Everyone showed understanding expressions at first, but the look the boy gave Yuhuan and Qianmo before leaving undoubtedly seemed to carry something in his eyes.

Yu Huan didn't care about this and didn't pay any attention to it. Anyway... it's still early, isn't it?

After returning to the room, Qianmo did not come to see Yuhuan for the whole afternoon. Yuhuan was not worried about this. Instead, Liuyun was sitting there restlessly like a eunuch who was anxious to death. He even made so many mistakes while playing games for the whole afternoon that Yuhuan almost got so angry that he beat someone up.

The choice has been given to Qianmo, and how to choose is Qianmo's own business. Obviously, neither Yuhuan nor Liuyun can interfere with this. And once Qianmo makes a choice... she must bear the consequences of her choice. Even Yuhuan will not say much about this.

An entire afternoon passed quietly like this, and then in the evening, a clear sound of returning to zero came from everyone's communicator. It was about the arrangements for the battle plan they had drawn up:

"This mission is a large-scale exploration mission, and our destination is a small town about 30 kilometers from the city. It's said that when the disaster struck, the town was operating as an 'ecological park' and was conducting tourism and other activities. Therefore, it must be home to a large number of mutant beasts and plants. Our target for this mission is there."

In the afternoon, after confirming the mission, Qianmo naturally received basic information about the mission. Of course, he would not casually share any detailed information with them, so what Guiling said was obviously all the information he had found through his own research:

"Based on our assessment, the main reason for the official scavenging operation this time is likely to be the mutant beasts and plants in the ecological park... Of course, we can't rule out the possibility of other purposes. We'll just have to keep an eye on this when the time comes."

Generally speaking, mutant beasts and mutant plants are undoubtedly terrifying existences at the level of natural disasters for ordinary people. However, on the other hand, they are also indispensable for survival.

After all, vegetables are plants, while meat must be obtained from mutant beasts. Therefore, for a city to operate and survive, in addition to resisting the attacks of zombies, mutant beasts and mutant plants, it actually needs to hunt mutant beasts and mutant plants regularly, and then bring back the corpses and eat them after testing.

This method has obviously been implemented in every city for quite some time, so no one found this exploration or hunting mission strange. Even the "other purpose" mentioned after returning to zero was just a passing mention.

Anyway, no matter what their purpose is, their goal is just to hunt as many mutant beasts, mutant plants, etc. as possible to earn points and increase material reserves. Nothing else matters, right?

After roughly explaining the mission's objectives to everyone so they could get familiar with them, Qingling, as the vice-captain, naturally began to assign tasks to everyone:

"First of all, Qian Xinxin, you and the captain are the logistics personnel. As usual, you will be responsible for providing support with the main force from the rear. Sister and Liu Xi will still be responsible for your safety."

The scavengers are not monolithic. Qian Xinxin is a space-based psychic, while Qian Mo is a healing-based psychic. Both of them are very tempting to other teams and even the authorities. In addition, both of them are good-looking, so it is not surprising that they are coveted by others.

In addition, even if they are in the rear, it is just a statement in front of those mutant plants that can burrow into the ground. No one knows whether the mutant plants will suddenly attack, so the two of them naturally need someone to protect them.

As for this mission, it was obvious that both the nun and Liuxi were already accustomed to it. Although Liuxi seemed to have some different opinions on this, she was unable to express them in the end... After all, as a member of the team, she still had some basic overall view, otherwise she would have left this team long ago.

"As for the investigation, Qin Qin, I don't need to say much, right?"

"rest assured!"

As the only one with shadow-type abilities, she was naturally the one who could be in charge of the investigation, so there was no need for Zero to say anything more. Finally, after everyone had made their own arrangements and removed the above people, Zero also needed to arrange the remaining four people who were considered the fighting force in the team: him, Xiaosaka, Liuyun and Yuhuan.

"In the past, we always acted together as a precaution. Now that Yu Huan has joined the team, we can change our organization a little bit. We can change it to Liang Liang's team's Doomsday. This way, we can spread the battle line as much as possible, and at the same time, the two teams can help each other and have the greatest degree of freedom."

The reset schedule was displayed one by one on the phone. Before he could start grouping, Kosaka's voice could not wait to rang out:

"I, I, I, I'm coming, I'm coming... I want to be in a group with Xiao Huan!"

The excited voice and the excited words were not concealed at all, sounding like the voice of an impatient child. However, before Guiling could speak, Liuyun's voice suddenly rang out:

"My sister is with me. She just joined me and I'm helping her get used to the pace of the mission first."

In a word, the person who directly said it could not refute it. After Kosaka made a protesting sound of "Ah~~", he was decisively ignored by Liuyun. Guiling also gave a reply after a moment of silence:

"Okay, just..."

"I disagree!"

Before he could finish his words, a voice that couldn't be held back finally rang out from his phone. He knew who the voice belonged to without even thinking:

"I want to be in a team with Brother Liuyun. Since this is her first mission, why don't we let him stay behind? Wouldn't it be more dangerous to go to the front line on her first mission?"

In a word, it sounds like she is quite considerate of Yu Huan, but how could this young lady named Liu Xi really have such thoughts?

"Besides, if a newcomer goes straight to the front line, it doesn't matter whether he dies or not, but what if he hinders Brother Liuyun's retreat?!"

The words were not polite at all, and the arrogant aura in them was displayed vividly, especially the sentence "It doesn't matter whether you live or die". As soon as it came out, Liuyun, who was looking at the phone, had his face suddenly sank.

It wasn't just hers. Even Guiling's expression seemed to turn ugly at this moment. Qian Xinxin also frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. It was obvious that she understood what the young lady had said.

"Wow~~ Sister Xixi, isn't it a bit too much to say that about Xiao Huan? It's not like Xiao Huan doesn't have the ability..."

Kosaka raised a protest voice, and then Asami's voice rang out at the same time:

"Xixi, you've gone too far!"

The accusing voice sounded, and before Liu Xi on the other end of the phone could respond, the zeroing sound rang out again:

"Liuyun and Yuhuan will be one team, and Xiaoban and I will be in another. The two teams will be responsible for hunting and collecting mutant beasts and plants. That's it... the division of labor is complete!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Liu Xi's voice seemed to want to be uttered once more, but...

"I……"

"If you don't want to accept it, you can also quit the Qixi team."

There was no talk of negotiation or turning point. It was obvious that as someone who had worked with Yu Huan for a few days and had seen Yu Huan's strength drop to zero, she was obviously a little angry towards Liu Xi this time... Of course, this might also be related to her usual ladylike demeanor.

"you……"

The sudden words made Liu Xi obviously angry, but as soon as she said it, she swallowed it back down as if she had thought of something, and finally she could only choose to remain silent.

However, at this moment, in a gorgeously decorated bedroom, a red-haired girl was looking at the mobile phone in her hand with a distorted and resentful expression. While remaining silent, she suddenly looked in a direction to the side with a vicious look.

"Yu Huan..."

192. Departure

Without Liu Xi's interruption, the groups were quickly determined. Since everyone had no objections to this distribution, the small meeting was disbanded.

He hung up the phone... or rather the communicator, and before Liuyun could even sigh, Yuhuan's eyes had already turned to him:

"So, considering this young lady's personality...how on earth did she manage to survive until now?"

To be honest, in Yuhuan's opinion, judging from the other party's brainless words just now, such a person would not survive more than three chapters in a novel, but the other party has stayed in the team for such a long time... Yuhuan is quite curious about this.

"No way, I have a strong background!"

One sentence is enough to speak more than a thousand words... As the daughter of the mayor, putting aside other things, even though the mayor's power has declined to a great extent in the end times, the official authority is still there. In this case, as the only daughter in the family, Liu Xi naturally did not suffer much since childhood.

Even as one of the scavengers in the team, on the one hand, it was obvious that the other party was coming for Liuyun. On the other hand, with more abundant resources than anyone else, the other party did have that kind of strength... as well as sufficient supplies and equipment.

In such a situation, to be honest, if the other party is really a brainless and arrogant young lady, even if she brings money into the team, there are actually few people in the scavenger team who can tolerate her.

After all, the scavenger team goes in and out of dangerous places outside, and every adventure is a proof of this fact with their lives. In this case, if the companion is a brainless young lady or something, then obviously there is no second possibility except the whole team is wiped out.

Under such circumstances, Liuxi was still able to successfully join the team, which in itself is a recognition of her strength and her daily performance.

However, this certainty... was shattered after he met Yu Huan.

In the Qixi team, anyone who is not a fool can see that the reason why Liuxi joined their team as a scavenger is obviously to target Liuyun.

In this situation, apart from Qianmo, who was a "family member" of Liuyun, Liuxi did not feel threatened by other people. On the other hand, neither Qian Xinxin nor Qin Qin had any feelings of affection for Liuyun. Even the nun was only attracted by Liuyun's potential and wanted to win him over to believe in the Silver Saint.

In this way, there are almost no competitors in the entire team. In this case, it is obvious that he "monopolizes" Liuyun, and this makes Liuxi very satisfied. Although he has never been recognized by Liuyun, in Liuxi's view, this is just a matter of time. After all, this man... will belong to him sooner or later.

However, all of this... until Yu Huan arrived.

Liuyun, who never let anyone else enter the room, actually let the other person move in. On the surface, she was his sister, but the two of them behaved so intimately (arm in arm). Even every time when chatting with the person named Yuhuan, the smile of trust and relaxation that came from the heart on Liuyun's face made people angry.

Liuyun had never smiled at her like that before. Even when he did smile, it was mostly mixed with alienation, and only rarely was he smiling at his companions.

The huge contrast made Liu Xi feel threatened. He felt the strong threat posed by Yu Huan, the newcomer in the team.

Under this threat, she finally experienced a sense of crisis for the first time in her life. The temper of a young lady who had been suppressed for a long time finally broke out unconsciously... just like before.

"...So, this is my fault?"

Listening to Liuyun's analysis, Yuhuan muttered to himself in frustration, but then he retorted:

"That's not right. What does it have to do with me? You were the one who invited me here, but you still have a bunch of bad relationships here, and you're plotting against me and using me as a shield... So this should all be your fault!"

As he said that, he rolled his eyes directly at Liuyun in front of him, which earned him an awkward smile from Liuyun... and he silently turned his gaze away.

If I think about it carefully, it was indeed me who invited Yu Huan, and it was also me who caused so much trouble...?

Sigh~~ But think about it, there's nothing we can do about it. After all, he's so handsome and charming... Obviously, he's also a problem~~

Liuyun thought so narcissistically, but what he got in return was a ruthless eye roll from Yuhuan, who saw through his emotions. He then joined forces with the elf on his shoulder to give him two middle fingers and two words:

"Where's the face~~~"

After the joke was over and he had a general understanding of Liu Xi's situation, Yu Huan immediately picked up the controller and continued playing the game without caring:

"Well~~ It doesn't matter. As long as she doesn't come to provoke me, I just hope she doesn't."

After all, although she calls Liuyun brother, it doesn't mean that she is really a sister. If she dares to provoke her, and if Yuhuan really gets angry... Liuyun can't stop her.

'And the same thing with that nun and...'

I silently added this sentence in my heart. I inexplicably felt that I had not done anything in this world, so how could I suddenly attract so many people's attention?

Could it be that because he had come into contact with too many Sons of the World, he had accidentally been infected with some accidental constitution or something from them?

Yu Huan frowned slightly and thought so immediately.

"Well, I'll stop her."

Not knowing what Yuhuan was thinking, Liuyun nodded apologetically and said so in response to Yuhuan's slightly unhappy tone.

Yu Huan is his confidant, and although Liu Xi has known him for a long time, to be honest, Liu Yun obviously doesn't like the other's possessive attitude like a young lady. Even if he regards the other as a companion, if he really puts the two of them on opposite ends of the scale.

Sorry, Yuhuan killed Liuxi instantly!

Nothing in the night

The next day, before the morning sun shone through the pitch-black crack, all kinds of noisy sounds could be heard downstairs. Yu Huan woke up at the sound of the Yu Yuan alarm clock, washed up quickly, changed into a simple outfit of a short-sleeved shirt, shorts and long socks, and walked out of the bedroom. The first thing he saw was Liu Yun packing his backpack.

"Here~~ I prepared a backpack for you. After all, we still need to keep the matter of our space a secret, so don't go out without anything prepared."
