Chapter 48: Each with Their Own Agenda

  Seeing Zhang Ke's foolish expression, Feng Yuan's originally gentle smile stopped, and then she said seriously to Zhang Ke: "Zhang sister, don't think I'm scaring you, let me tell you, in this world, once you leave the base, don't even think about those normal human emotions!"

  "Humans who survive in the wild are all fierce wolves. Sometimes, they are even more terrifying than zombies and mutated beasts! Because only then can they better survive! Otherwise, they would have died long ago in this post-apocalyptic world!"

  Zhang Ke was obviously a weak-willed woman, although she had reached the second stage of her cultivation, but in terms of personality, she didn't have much independence.

  Bu Fan couldn't help but sigh at the sight, people with her personality would definitely be the first to die in such a large-scale task, no matter how strong she was, because she couldn't grasp people's hearts!

  "Zhang Jie, don't forget, between us two and them, there's one more difference - we're women!"

  "Do you know the fate of a woman who has no one to rely on in the wilderness? Besides having to guard against zombies and mutated beasts, she also has to guard against powerful men! Maybe you think that I'm not good-looking, not a beauty, so nobody would look at me!"

  "If that's what you think, then you're wrong. For a martial artist who hunts and kills in the wilderness, as long as it's a woman, once they're caught, their fate generally won't be too good! That's why there are so many female warrior teams within the city!" Feng Yuan said with a clever tongue, continuing to speak to Zhang Ke.

  She didn't avoid Bu Fan at all, and apparently in her heart, she also thought that Bu Fan was a martial artist who was not even a zero-level threat, and would not pose a threat to their safety.

  More importantly, the several answers from Bo Fan just now have shown that he is a clever boy and not on the same wavelength as Wu Guang and his gang!

  "Yuan Yuan, then what should we do?" Zhang Ke was at a loss for words at this moment, his mind in a mess, and could only ask Feng Yuan beside him.

  Seeing the flustered expression on Zhang Ke's face and hearing her inquiry, Feng Yuan's eyes revealed a hint of complacency, then smiled and said: "Sister Zhang, don't worry, I'm here too. There are only three of them, we two will stick together, be more careful, first pretend to cooperate with them, after completing the task, we two will leave first and return to the city directly, it's safe!"

  "What? Is it okay like this?" Zhang Ke felt that Feng Yuan's words were too simple, although he was a bit foolish.

  "This is just a general direction, Zhang Jie, often times we need to adapt to the situation, and I don't have any specific methods right now. However, Zhang Jie, at critical moments you must stand on my side, our two sides united, only then do we have the power of speech. Otherwise, if we split up, we can only be manipulated by them!" Feng Yuan sighed and solemnly said to Zhang Ke.

  "Alright, okay, Yuanyuan, I'll stand on your side!" Zhang Ke thought for a moment and nodded.

  She also weighed both sides, although Feng Yuan was just a woman, but she seemed to understand a lot.

  Although Wu Guang's side has a strong force, Feng Yuan said something very right. They are men, and she is a woman. This is a kind of innate vigilance that makes it difficult for her to truly believe them thoroughly, especially after Feng Yuan instilled the seeds of distrust in her.

  In the back seat, Bu Fan looked calmly at the two women in the car discussing some countermeasures and principles in a low voice, but his heart couldn't help but sigh!

  This is the end of the world!

  Even two women who happened to meet by chance were constantly calculating each other's thoughts at this moment, striving for the most favorable conditions for themselves.

  At this moment, the three men in the carriage, didn't they have any plans to calculate them? No, Bo Fan believed that they did, and even the distribution of the two women was well thought out.

  At this moment, for some unknown reason, Bu Fan suddenly felt a sense of listlessness!

  The apocalyptic journey that I was originally looking forward to has already been worn away by the intrigue and infighting between a few people!

  Perhaps what he yearned for was that kind of unreserved camaraderie, but in a temporarily assembled team, such trust does not exist!

  "Feng Jie, about how long will it take for us to arrive at the destination camp?" asked Bu Fan, who was sitting in the back seat, in a soft voice.

  Feng Yuan glanced at Bu Fan's immature face through the rearview mirror of the car, and a faint dim light flashed in her eyes.

  This young man is actually quite good-looking, it's just that his abilities are too weak, otherwise, she wouldn't mind paying a price to pull him into her own camp.

  However, in her heart she thought of returning home, but on the surface, Feng Yu replied softly: "It'll probably take two days! Xiao Fan, don't think that just because we're moving fast now, it's because we've only just left the city and haven't gone far. Firstly, the road is easy to walk, and secondly, the monsters on the road have all been cleared by the vanguard team, so we can chat comfortably!"

  "But once you leave the safe area and enter the danger zone, the road won't be so easy to walk. If you're unlucky, you might encounter zombies or monsters, and it's likely that you'll have to fight your way through!"

  Hearing Feng Yuan's explanation, Bu Fan shook his head helplessly. This progress was really too slow.

  "Squeak!"

  At this moment, Feng Yuan suddenly stepped on the brake urgently, and then the whole car was filled with a sharp braking sound, sliding for tens of meters before slowly stopping there.

  "What's going on?" Zhang Ke sat in the passenger seat, barely holding onto his body, and asked anxiously.

  Bu Fan didn't say a word, he just lifted his head and looked forward through the car window glass. All he saw was Feng Yuan panting heavily on the driver's seat!

  "Huh?"

  Bofan's pupils shrank slightly at this moment, and he saw a red dot faintly reflected on Fengyuan's face.

  "Laser sight!"

  Seeing the aiming mirror on Feng Yuanyuan's face, Bu Fan exclaimed in surprise. It was clear that someone had aimed at Feng Yuan and was discovered by her, so she hastily stepped on the brakes.

  Just as Bofan discovered Fengyuan's abnormality, several people walked out from the ruins and broken walls on both sides of the car, and quietly surrounded it.

  "Get off!"

  One of them shouted loudly outside while raising an assault rifle in his hand!

  Feng Yuanyuan and Bu Fan got out of the car, slowly opening the door and walking down, while Wu Guang and others had already jumped off from the back of the truck.

  Seeing the newcomer, Wu Guang stepped forward to greet him, but at this moment he showed not his previous majestic and powerful demeanor, but rather a humble smile, his tall stature slightly hunched.

  "Hey, big brother, look, we're just leaving the city to go on a mission, we're all small soldiers, you tell us how many, and we'll do our best to gather them for you. If we can't gather enough, don't be offended, it's not easy!" Wu Guang said with a flattering smile as he approached the leader of the group.

  The leading man glanced at Wu Guang, a cold smile appeared on his face, and he said in a low voice: "Alright, this time we met someone who understands the rules. Since that's the case, my brothers won't waste any words! Take out half of the food you're carrying, and then take out one-third of the special bullets and arrows. After that, you can leave!"

  So-called special effect bullets and arrow branches are actually some specially made bullets, such as armor-piercing bullets, incendiary bullets, signal arrows, and ice arrows.

  The damage of these items far exceeds the general bullet item damage!

  "This... big brother, food is easy to say, can the firepower resources be reduced a bit? Don't deceive big brother, this time our mission, life is not good, we've been assigned a team task, leave a way out for my brothers, later when my brothers return to the city, they will definitely be grateful to big brother!" Wu Guang said with gritted teeth and a bold tone.

  Food can be obtained from the wild, but if these special firepower equipment are gone, their lives will be hard to protect!

  "Get out, do you think this is a vegetable market where you can haggle over prices? Either take the goods or take your life, choose for yourselves!" The man suddenly lifted his foot and kicked Wu Guang in the head, saying coldly.

  Wu Guang quickly got up from the ground, looked back at Bu Fan and them, then continued to run to the man's side, saying in a low voice: "Big brother, how about we give you those two women, can you reduce the punishment for my brothers?"
