The situation in the living room where Ark and Yu Lian are in terms of influence, with Lu Xin being set as the prime example, notices that there is now a division among them.

A few students were glad that Lu Xin is out of power within the group in which they're willing to contribute is considered a positive effect, but from how most of Shana's classmates in line with Lu Xin, are deliberately avoiding eye contact, and could see that they were really afraid of him. Even though Shana was second most influential in the group, but she was never against him and more of an ally. Maybe they finally realized the moment when Ark grabbed Lu Xin, the time for them to pick which side they were willing to support.

Which is the first step that Ark wanted to achieve, although the effect from his only slap-granting on Lu Xin's face, but in reality the rest of the disgruntled group also felt that burning pain on their ego.

While for Lu Xin, as soon as he heard that Ark was actually staying to lead them, he immediately fled into the other room, probably humiliated and afraid to show his face.

Ark did expect his reaction would be, this is doomsday after all, a world without order, since he has the strength, then everyone must follow the hierarchy of the group, and not allow others to insult him.

"Everyone! Do you remember those teachers and classmates who were left behind at school?" Li Kai Cheng arranged for Ark to sit on the sofa, then excitedly said to his classmates: "Big brother Ark already agreed to help Shana and me to find them."

Everyone all froze for a second, instantly expressing mixed feelings as they all looked at Ark.

One of Shana's female classmates from Sanban High from before hesitantly spoke: "There are so many zombies over there, we should..."

The success rate of this operation is extremely low, in which implication in Ark's view, he understood their skepticism about this.

"We have already discussed it before. I am going back to save them. If they were not there covering our escape, we would have already been turned into leftovers in the bellies of the zombies." Shana's words were more direct and also blunt, in contrast to Li Kai Cheng's passionate words.

If it wasn't for Shana being such a clingy little sister when she always acted in front of Yu Lian and her classmates and even though she was holding Yu Lian's hand, she was now behaved like a boss...

"But...." At this time, a man in glasses who stood in front of Ark suddenly spoke: "If so then let's all go together. Shana has a point. If we leave them behind and don't go back to rescue them, that will be so selfish for us to just walk away like that. Shana will lead us, we go there together."

As soon as his voice fell, everyone's face became somewhat unpleasant, but strangely that no one objected.

"No!" Not waiting for Shana and Li Kai Cheng to speak up, Ark said promptly.

The man in glasses didn't seem to be angry when his proposal was rejected, he calmly turned to Ark and asked: "Why?"

Ark replies: "You all have no ability to combat. Besides that there are so many of you, it would take a lot of time to prepare before heading straight there. Without it, you all will be the easiest targets for zombies."

Since getting Shana to realize the truth is his goal, which is why he agrees to help her in the first place, but being a babysitter for these group of people would be challenging in its own right, Ark does not have the patience again to do something like that.

Although the man in glasses spoke sincerely and nice, but Ark felt something that he wanted to follow Shana because he was lacking a sense of security, and it can be seen from his reaction.

The journey between here and Sanban High School is quite far as it was all the way to the Central district, it would be no problem if all those survivors were killed. But it would be problematic, depending how many survivors there are, then it takes a few days or more for Shana and Li Kai Cheng to add the entire group and the survivors to come back. After all going through a densely zombie area and unscathed is not so simple compared to being a solo.

Of course, with the right amount of preparation and hands on combat, they just need to follow orders to the smallest details.

"But there isn't much food to eat!" The man who previously echoed in agreement with Lu Xin suddenly opened his mouth and gruntly said, and it is equivalent to confirming Ark's previous speculation.

"That's right, we never expected to meet big brother Ark today, so we didn't prepare enough food for him in advance...." Li Kai Cheng patted his head, turned to look at Ark pleadingly.

"Well. Under my teacher's guidance, the chance of your survival increase, you just need to help us out when we are in a tight spot, would it be alright, teach?" Shana thought for a little, suddenly said to Ark.

As soon as she said, everyone's morale became somewhat increased. They probably all knew about their own position, but it was probably the first time to clearly point to them, which is inevitably embarrassing.

In fact, it's because they know that they're a burden, so they would need to straighten their heads in front of Ark. Regardless if Ark is in the same position as Shana and Li Kai Cheng, in terms of being good at something or with some ability, some people who like to form groups, Ark and Yu Lian are considered "Outsiders"

As for Shana and Li Kai Cheng, these two are like saints in their perspective, they might take full advantage of their kindness and make sure they are the only benefactor.

But for leeches should consciously behave like one, once the saint makes a stand, they could only endure even if their hearts weren't the same.

However to those that aren't, it will become the dagger that forms up should follow its function, once the order is given, they are willing to follow till the very end of the world.

Since Shana already said it, some felt worried and some weren't, but no one else said anything to object, and Ark just nodded in agreement: "Okay"

With everyone on board with Shana's plan, Ark quickly discusses their weakness and strength of each individual...

"Shana, Don't worry! If we have weapons, we can try our best to protect ourselves. We won't drag you behind." Glasses boy showed a hint of determination and a smile of joy as he said.

Some people were in the same agreement to glasses boy while others, their's completed an expression that would probably not be in the same page as them.

Everyone then discussed the details for another moment, and then dismissed as Li Kai Cheng took out the food from his backpack, ate a simple meal while sitting together with the group.

The food they looted from the supermarket could barely fill their hunger, compared to Ark's food in his backpack were a lot better regardless of it being in terms of flavor or calories. It's pretty common, there are a lot more zombies and a lot more survivors within this area, the probability of seeing a well stocked supermarket is low since have probably thoroughly searched several times...

But Ark does not intend to take it out and share....at least not yet.

"Hmm, Big sis. you will not eat?" Shana handed Yu Lian half a pack of instant ramen, but found Yu Lian completely unresponsive.

"Are you in a bad mood, Big Sis." Although Shana probably didn't seem noticeable, but Li Kai Cheng had felt a sense of cold demeanor from Yu Lian's gaze, he couldn't help but to ask tentatively.

"She just doesn't very good in interact much with others." Ark suddenly felt a headache because of all sorts of things may could go wrong if they let it go of this conversation, so he quickly interjected their questioning.

"Wait teach. It's not convenient for Big sis to stay with you in the boy's dormitory tonight, so let her be with us in the girl's dormitory. You, Li Kai Cheng and other boys will sleep there." Shana pointed to the opposite direction as she said.

Even though Ark wanted to object, but knowing her when his eyes swept through Shana and several other female students, he couldn't help but nodded for some mysterious reason: "That's fine. Take a good care of her."

It not far anyways, Yu Lian won't be out of control. Ever since his evolution, his field of control of his ability has significantly increased along his mental strength.

"After the disaster outbreak, all recreational activities are basically gone. After dinner, although the sky just became dark, everyone immediately returned to their rooms and rest silently.

Shana also took Yu Lian and went to the girl's dormitory with several female classmates, while Ark maintains the spiritual connection with Yu Lian, he would be sleeping alone on a single bed under Li Kai Cheng's arrangement.

This feels like a special treatment, after all he will help Shana, Li Kai Cheng and their classmates towards Sanban High School, and him, being a temporary leader of the group, added his fighting capacity, even though he can also sleep with other male while ignore Lu Xin, Li Kai Cheng insisted as it he said it would have special significance to Shana and her classmates.

Unbeknownst to their expectation that when Ark slept on the single bed and close his eyes, his perspective had already switched over to Yu Lian's point of view.

"How can I be at ease putting Yu Lian with you alone without your dubious motives? I must keep to monitor her." (Author: spoiler alert: It will be very steamy in the next chapter) Ark said secretly in his heart.
