Chapter 30: The victor is king, the loser is villain; survival of the fittest.
Li Xue collapsed to the ground, her eyes filled with resentment. This was the first time she had faced a superhuman head-on.
"I'm really not happy about dying at the hands of such a pervert!"
Unexpectedly, this simple exchange could so easily take her life!
Luo Hao was filled with excitement as he looked at the small cake in front of him, completely immersed in a beautiful dream. But at the critical moment, a scream rang out.
"what!"
The one screaming was not Li Xue, but Luo Hao, who looked like he was sure to win!
A sonic boom rang out, and several streaks of fire shot out instantly. Luo Hao immediately let out a scream and was sent flying backward.
Luo Hao's pride in his resistance was now pierced by the fire, blood staining his flesh and his face growing paler.
"Are superhumans so amazing?" Fu Xi's hands emitted a white light, which dissipated in the next moment, and red light gathered again, ready to be unleashed at any moment!
"You...you're a superhuman?" Luo Hao's eyes focused, his cross-eyed look appearing particularly strange.
He had assumed that Fu Xi was just an experienced engineer, but he never expected that she was actually a superhuman.
That's not his fault; the rarity of people with superpowers is obvious to all!
He was the only superhuman in the huge Fearless Caravan. He had tried to recruit other superhumans at high prices, but all his efforts were in vain!
"Not too stupid!" Fu Xi glanced at him coldly. The outcome was already decided; the Fearless Team was dead except for Luo Hao!
"Damn, did I just step in dog poop on my way out? I've had such bad luck, I haven't encountered any superhumans in ages, but I had to run into one today!"
"Moreover, this superhuman's ability is clearly more advanced than mine!"
Luo Hao slapped himself, cursing inwardly.
His body is enhanced by superpowers, so ordinary bullets can't hurt him, but other superpowered individuals might be!
Judging from the situation just now, Luo Hao not only encountered a superhuman, but this superhuman was also his nemesis!
"I was wrong, I'll never dare to lay a finger on you again, ancestors, please, please spare me!"
Luo Hao's gaze fell on Li Xue, and then finally settled on Fu Xi.
"Why do you think I would let an ordinary person fight against a superhuman like you?" Fu Xi spoke first, unmoved, breaking the awkward atmosphere.
This is the end of the world. If we soften our hearts in the face of wolves, we will likely be attacked again. We absolutely cannot allow such a possibility to exist!
"You're nothing but a resilient target; now that you've served your purpose, you can die!"
Fu Xi’s palm flickered with a faint light, and several lines of fire shot out instantly, stirring up a cloud of smoke.
These lines of fire could pierce even steel, let alone the severely injured Luo Hao!
However, the next moment something unexpected happened. The smoke dissipated, and a disheveled figure, clutching a wound on his back, hid behind a rock.
As they ran, the sand and stones were stained with green blood, making it extremely eerie.
"Damn it, if I hadn't used all my power to protect myself, I would have died from that attack!"
"A devil! He's a devil! I even knelt down and begged him, but he showed no mercy and just shot!"
"Is it really necessary? I just like his woman, don't I?" All the disgusting pesky bumps on Luo Hao's back shattered, and strangely enough, they were all tending to the spot where they had just been attacked.
These beans are the fundamental reason why Luo Hao is not afraid of knives and guns, but now his body is seriously damaged.
The balance has been completely broken; even ordinary weapons can directly affect him!
"They're still alive? It seems they really do have an internal energy cultivation ability." Fu Xi withdrew her hand, which was emitting white smoke, and stepped forward with a calm expression.
Nowadays, apart from Luo Hao, almost everyone in the Fearless Team is dead!
"Fuxi...you truly are my god. I always see you in times of crisis...my love for you has only grown stronger..."
Fu Xi looked at Li Xue, who was infatuated with him, and silently reached out her hand.
"We're fighting, what are you daydreaming about?" Fu Xi pulled Li Xue up.
"It's all your fault, you're too charming..." Li Xue didn't hide it anymore.
"You weren't like this before. Okay, let's deal with the problem at hand first!" Fu Xi checked the time; it was 2:50 PM, an hour and a half before dark.
Fu Xi wanted to finish the fight quickly, and the two of them turned their gazes to Luo Hao behind the rock!
The convoy is gone...
The beauty is gone...
He was also seriously injured...
"This is outrageous! Do you think I'm made of clay? Even a tiger roars when it's angry!"
Luo Hao lay on the ground, a mix of emotions swirling within him. He now possessed a weapon that flashed with white light!
This is the weapon he acquired at a high price—an electromagnetic gun.
The electromagnetic gun is a modified version of the electromagnetic cannon, designed to make it easier for users to operate.
"This thing isn't very effective against supernatural beings, but it's incredibly effective against people. No matter how powerful your awakened superpowers are, you'll have to kneel down!"
"I still have one bullet left, I can't afford to make a mistake!" A hint of resentment flashed in Luo Hao's eyes as he hesitated.
Given his current condition, even he himself isn't sure if he can hit the shot. If he misses, his only hope of turning the game around will be gone!
"Damn it, I can't gamble anymore, I'm really doomed if I keep gambling, run! I have to run!" In the end, Luo Hao still didn't dare to gamble!
His will to survive surged through his body, and just as he was about to continue running, he suddenly caught a glimpse of white light emanating from Fu Xi's palm.
Luo Hao thought that Fu Xi would not use such a powerful attack again, since Fu Xi would soon enter a period of weakness after using her superpower.
"What? He can launch that kind of thing...without any limits?"
Luo Hao was stunned. His confidence vanished, and he immediately shrank back and began to beg for mercy.
"Gentlemen, please spare me! I didn't know you were a superhuman. If I had, I definitely wouldn't have bothered you!"
"Oh, by the way, I have lots of nice things in my car that I can give you!"
Luo Hao kept kowtowing, and his body shrank considerably.
He was no longer as arrogant as he used to be!
"Please, just let me go!" Luo Hao was on the verge of collapse as he watched Fu Xi and the other man closing in.
Where did your arrogance go? Where did your confidence go? I still prefer the way you were before.
"Oh, right, even if we kill you, everything you own will still be ours!" Li Xue hid behind Fu Xi, afraid that Luo Hao would retaliate before he died.
"Grandma, ancestors, I'm a superhuman too! I can join you. There are so few superhumans these days, it's really a great deal!"
Seeing that the other party remained unmoved, Luo Hao had no choice but to propose new conditions, but Fu Xi's words the next second undoubtedly poured cold water on his enthusiasm.
"Even among those with superpowers, there are varying degrees of strength. Clearly, you're not qualified, and those you slaughtered wouldn't agree to you living in this world!"
Looking at the dozens of women's corpses on the pickup truck, Fu Xi couldn't imagine how many people Luo Hao had killed, and that he was a dangerous person with questionable character.
"Damn it, you forced me to this! You forced me to this, so die!"
Luo Hao, his face contorted with rage, saw that Fu Xi remained unmoved and stopped pretending. He disregarded everything else, picked up the electromagnetic cannon with one bullet left, and fired.
A flash of white light appeared, followed by a loud explosion like a bomb, sending sand and stones flying and sparks flying everywhere.
The destructive shockwave swept outwards, instantly shattering the area where Fu Xi and the other person were, and stirring up layers of mist!
"No matter how powerful your awakened superpower is, you'll die if you get hit by this!" The shockwave made Luo Hao's heart tremble, and blood immediately flowed from his nose, mouth, and ears.
"I can get injured from this far away, I don't believe you can survive!" Luo Hao wiped the blood off his body, staggered to his feet, and watched the smoke dissipate triumphantly.
"Serves you right, daring to oppose me, this is what happens. It's just a pity about that beauty!" Luo Hao looked inside and saw nothing unusual, so he thought the other party was dead.
A gentle breeze arose, and just as Luo Hao thought the situation was settled and was about to leave, an unexpected change occurred, and a cold snort came from within the smoke!
"Did I say you could leave?" Fire shot out instantly, breaking Luo Hao's legs immediately.
"What? How is this possible? I definitely hit him!" Intense pain spread throughout Luo Hao's body, but the next moment, an even more despairing scene unfolded before him!
As the smoke cleared, Fu Xi and his companion appeared, and standing before them was an undamaged shield—the Insulation Shield!
"Is this your last trump card? This gun is quite powerful; if I had reacted a little slower, you might have succeeded!"
Fu Xi dusted herself off and walked out with a cold expression. "Alright, your ridiculous performance ends here. Go down there and atone for your sins!"
"What did I do wrong? I robbed beautiful women and supplies; I just wanted a better life, which is only human nature!"
"You're talking nonsense! You think you're right?" Li Xue couldn't take it anymore.
Luo Hao threw his head back and laughed loudly, "What's the point of robbing? If I can't rob you outright, I'll team up to rob you. If teaming up can't win, I'll drug you. If drugging you doesn't work, I'll resort to underhanded tactics!"
"That's just how the world is. Everyone looks out for themselves; it's all about survival of the fittest. Why bother saying all this?"
"You've slaughtered so many of us, what right do you have to talk to me like that? What are you pretending to be, this self-righteous philanthropist..."
Seeing that his opponent remained unmoved despite the fire aimed at his forehead, Luo Hao knew he had no chance of turning the tide!
However, before Luo Hao could finish speaking, Li Xue shouted:
"Old bastard, you still dare to try to clear your name even when you're about to die? Die!" A gunshot rang out, and Luo Hao finally fell into a pool of blood.
If being gentle and kind means being bullied, then why not transform into a demon and protect the last remaining kindness in this world!
"The ship doesn't have much time left, let's split up. You go and devour the machinery, I'll scavenge for supplies!" Li Xue didn't hesitate at all and turned to leave.
Perhaps influenced by Fuxi, all of this seems to have been done with ease by now!
"Uh... be careful..." Before Fu Xi could finish speaking, Li Xue had already run far away.
"Young people really do learn things quickly!" Fu Xi had just wanted Li Xue to scavenge for supplies, but she beat her to it.
"Fine, I have to start devouring too..." After taking the small vehicle away, Fu Xi finally reached out and leaned against a series of pickup trucks to begin devouring them.
He also wanted to get one of these vehicles just in case, but getting it onto the 15-meter-tall Titanic was a big problem.
Time is running out; he doesn't have time to modify the Titanic for a single vehicle.
After weighing the pros and cons, upgrading the mechanic is the most important thing!
"I've been so busy escaping lately that I haven't absorbed anything in a while. I wonder if the Mechanic will be able to level up this time!"
……
[The Mechanic successfully absorbed the power, gaining 80 Mechanic Points and 100 Mechanic Disassembly Points, and obtaining the material Carbon Fiber...]
[Current Mechanic Level: lv1, 460/500]
[Note: Each upgrade...]
[Basic Attributes]
[Strength Lv2, 80/100]
[Defense Lv2, 76/100]
Agility lv2, 50/100
[Current Skill]
……
"Still haven't broken through to level two!" Fu Xi looked at the corpses scattered on the ground, having absorbed all the materials that could be absorbed.
"Looks like I need to find some more materials to devour..." As dusk fell, Li Xue returned carrying large and small bags.
"Captain, I've found some really good stuff this time: fifty canned goods, ten cases of bottled water..."
Fu Xi's eyes lit up as he looked at the supplies scattered on the ground; he had been worried about the supplies before.
Unexpectedly, a deliveryman brought supplies over right away; they were practically angel investors!
The days of breaking a loaf of bread into several pieces are finally over; this food is enough for them to eat for half a year!
"Good job, you deserve credit. Now we can treat ourselves properly..." Fu Xi carried the supplies back to the deck one by one.
The sky gradually darkened, and now it was only ten minutes before the Black Tide engulfed them.
Fortunately, Fu Xi was quick and agile. There was only one case of water left. Just as he was about to head out, Li Xue stopped him and handed him a box.
"This is..." Fu Xi looked at Li Xue blankly, but seeing her serious expression, he still opened it to take a look.
The wooden box was filled with medicine; these were post-apocalyptic war supplies!
"Li Xueqian's medicines are all good, so we won't have to worry about getting sick!" Time was of the essence, and just as Fu Xi was about to leave, Li Xueqian handed him a USB drive.
"This was also found inside. I suspect that the fact that it was stored with these medicines means its contents are extraordinary!"
Li Xue expressed her opinion with a hesitant expression.
"You're right, let's wait and see!" Fu Xi also noticed that something was wrong with Li Xue.
"Li Xue... what's wrong?" Fu Xi stared blankly at the scene, then quickly noticed that Li Xue's cheeks were flushed and that she was hiding something behind her back.
It was an old-fashioned DVD player, and Li Xue had several round cards in her hand with pictures of sexy little Japanese figures on them!
"It's nothing... I... Let's go first, or the Kuroshio will catch up if we linger!"
