Chapter 31

  When the end times come, a portion of humanity will awaken special abilities.

  Their owners would notice and use these abilities after the cosmic storm swept through.

  Just like Lu Yu and that Chen Fei from before.

  There were some people, however, who were different.

  Because the abilities awakened by this part of the population were rather special, they needed to encounter some specific circumstances in order for them to take effect!

  That was why it was difficult for them to notice in the first place after their abilities had awakened.

  This was also the reason Lu Yu questioned them.

  If there was another person in his own team who had awakened an ability!

  Then the overall combat power of his own team would be considerable.

  However, reality gave Lu Yu a hard slap in the face!

  Let Lu Yu understand what is called the ideal is very rich, the reality is very bone-skinny.

  Abnormal ability is very rare.

  Even amongst the Awakened, they are very rare.

  There were six people in this team, except for Xue Li and Ding Feng, who seemed to have become a little stronger!

  The others didn’t seem to have changed much!

  Although Lu Yu could be sure that Yan Yun, as the female lead, must have special abilities!

  However, his Villain’s Eye could only see basic information such as human height and weight, and at most, add a betrayal rate.

  It wasn’t able to see if the other party had any special abilities.

  So since Yan Yun couldn’t feel any changes in herself, Lu Yu couldn’t tell what her ability was.

  ‘It’s over, boss. Am I wasted?’

  ‘I feel like I’m ruined too!’

  Shi Lei and He Li said one by one.

  ‘Wasted is not so bad. After all, our team will become bigger in the future. If you can’t be a combatant, you can still be a logistic.’

  Lu Yu consoled.

  ‘Then, Shao Lu’s operation this time, is it just Ding Feng and I who can take part?’

  ‘Indeed!’ Lu Yu denied this statement, ‘But. Ding Feng alone can go with me.’

  ‘Ah?’

  ‘Xue Li, Shi Lei, He Li, the three of you stay behind!’

  Lu Yu gave orders. ‘There are a lot of our supplies on this floor. If there’s no one to guard those supplies, I’m afraid something will go wrong!’

  ‘That’s right too!’

  ‘I don’t have a problem with that, but can you do it with only Ding Feng?’

  ‘How can a man say no?’

  Lu Yu smiled and turned his gaze to Yan Yun. ‘Besides, isn’t there another one here?’

  ‘Huh? Me?’

  Yan Yun stood there in shock.

  ‘Of course, but don’t worry, I will protect you!’

  Lu Yu paused when he said this, ‘Besides, it’s not like we need to go head to head!’

  ‘Eh?’

  Xue Li was stunned at first, then came back to his senses, ‘Young Lu, you mean to say...’

  Lu Yu looked calm. ‘With so many survivors on this floor, there should be a lot of people who haven’t had breakfast, right?’

  Many people didn’t have breakfast?

  Hearing Lu Yu’s words, the others were confused.

  However, Xue Li, who was slightly older, seemed to understand what Lu Yu meant.

  Judging from Lu Yu’s previous performance of killing that big woman without hesitation!

  He had every reason to believe that this was what his young master was thinking.

  Thinking of this, Xue Li’s gaze towards Lu Yu became complicated.

  Why didn’t he realise before that this master of his was so vicious?

  He is simply a born evil seed.

  However, on second thought, nowadays, the outside world is so chaotic, Lu Yu’s character that only thinks about himself may not be a bad thing.

  ‘Didn’t eat breakfast? What do you mean?’

  ‘Lu Yu, what are you saying? Why can’t I understand?’

  ‘Me neither!’

  ‘Me neither!’

  ‘You all don’t understand this?’

  Looking at the suspicious faces of the crowd, Lu Yu was obviously a little surprised, but still patiently explained, ‘Never mind, I’ll tell you more about it.’

  As Lu Yu narrated, the crowd understood what Lu Yu meant.

  His idea was actually very simple.

  Right now, that secret realm outside still had more than 20 hours to go before it disappeared!

  With so many monsters on the streets, it was impossible for ordinary people to go over there.

  If he himself couldn’t get there in the first place, other people would be even more unable to get through.

  And it was already noon!

  Most of the people who hadn’t eaten breakfast were already starving.

  What does a hungry person do?

  They look for food, of course!

  In the beginning, people were afraid of the dangers outside and didn’t come out to look for food.

  But there would always be those who were too impatient to stay in the room and wait for death.

  And judging by the location of that secret entrance.

  There might be other people who discovered that secret realm entrance.

  So letting these people go and take the lead was definitely more than appropriate!

  Hearing Lu Yu’s plan, Xue Li had an expression that said it all.

  The others, however, were dumbfounded and looked at Lu Yu with a surprised expression.

  Waiting for the others to rush ahead and use their lives to scout the way for them?

  How did this guy come up with such a vicious plan?

  After Lu Yu explained, Xue Li and Ding Feng did not say anything. After all, they were professional bodyguards.

  Their mission was to protect the current Lu Yu.

  The lives of other people did not have much to do with them.

  Shi Lei and He Li also did not speak, only that their hearts suddenly became a little bottomless.

  Because Lu Yu was their current boss.

  Lu Yu did things so ruthlessly, could they not be panicked as juniors? What if he sold them one day?

  Only Yan Yun, although after the previous ‘Hatchet’s Nest’ thing, made her realise a lot!

  But watching someone else die, she was still a little uncomfortable in her heart!

  ‘Is it bad if we do this?’

  ‘Not good? Where is it bad?’

  Lu Yu seemed to have expected this and did not evade this question.

  The Lu Yu of his previous life was not a bad person.

  However, he was definitely not a good person with both excellent character and good behaviour either.

  One could see these two points from the villain system’s choice of him and his killing people shortly after the end of the world.

  His grandparents raised a man who grew up without parents.

  A child whose grandparents left him one after another at the age of thirteen. How good of a character do you expect him to have?

  All his closest relatives died, and none of them were willing to take him in!

  He left school before finishing junior high and faced bullying and stares from others.

  In the end, he had no choice but to follow some social youths to fool around.

  If he wasn’t very smart and hadn’t met, the guidance of a nobleman in time to go back to the right path, it is estimated that he would have to spend his life in prison.

  There is a good saying: the whole world has abandoned me, and you expect me to love the world?

  Therefore, because he had been beaten, Lu Yu asked for food, slept on the streets, and worked as a street butcher, thus proving himself more selfish than most people.

  ‘This.’

  Yan Yun stammered, not knowing how to answer Lu Yu’s question!

  It always felt like she was doing something wrong.

  ‘I know what you want to say!’

  Lu Yu directly interrupted, ‘Isn’t it just that I think I have a lot of supplies, so I can appropriately share some of them with others so that they don’t risk their lives?’

  In fact, not only Yan Yun, even Shi Lei and He Li would have this thought.

  It wasn’t that they were saintly mothers.

  It was just that among those survivors, scum like Chen Fei, was, after all, a minority.

  Most of them were still ordinary people as well.

  In order to safeguard their own interests, they would watch these ordinary people go to their deaths?

  Normal people would be somewhat intolerant.

  Or as long as one has received nine years of compulsory education and has a little of morality and family education, they would not do this.

  Lu Yu knew that their mindset did not change so quickly, and did not care much, directly saying, ‘I’m telling you, it’s impossible!’

  ‘Not to mention if those people will develop a dependency mentality if I do this, even if they won’t, I prepared those things with great difficulty!’

  ‘And for me to give out this food to strangers that I don’t know? How can that be?’

  ‘The future is so long, no one can predict what will happen in the future. We have to live for ourselves!’

  ‘And the lives of others? Sorry, that’s none of my business! Call me cruel or selfish. That’s just the way I am.’
