My Ability Pool is Superior-Chapter 37 - 36: Recruitment
Inside the deep green military tent, it was full of bloodstains.
Under the camp lamp hanging from the top of the tent, several patches of blood reflected the light.
The closest person, Wu Ya, had a few drops of splattered blood on her face, and she stood frozen as if petrified.
Tian Wang’s rounded body shook frantically like a quail, and his pants gradually became wet.
The whole scene exuded a kind of absurd, uncanny post-modern flavor.
Lv Bai turned around, picked up a blanket, and wiped the bloodstains off the Eight-sided Han Sword.
Even just a small gesture of bending down made Wu Ya and Ke Jiangni involuntarily take half a step back.
There was no other choice, even though they had witnessed many zombies with mangled flesh while fleeing along the way.
But killing a person and killing a zombie, although not much different in appearance, felt completely different to an onlooker.
What’s more, Guo Mi had accompanied them all the way, and seeing someone they knew die in front of them was quite a shock.
Ke Jiangni steadied her mind: "Um... what should we do now?"
Due to extreme tension, her voice sounded somewhat distorted, but it was clear she was asking how to deal with Guo Mi’s body.
Even though unexpected events had occurred throughout the shelter, the Seventh District where they were was still currently safe.
The army had entered with heavy weapons, and normally, a single heavy machine gun could guard an entryway impenetrably.
No matter how rampant the zombie swarm, in front of a steel barrier of 12.7mm bullets, would only turn into meat scraps.
The chaos would gradually subside, which meant that some semblance of order still existed.
"It’s okay."
Lv Bai put away the Eight-sided Han Sword and resumed his usual gentle smile: "We just need to leave this tent, after all, no one saw..."
Before he finished speaking, the tent’s flap was lifted again.
It was a youth with skin so pale it seemed sickly, but at first sight, everyone struggled to focus on his delicate features.
More noticeable was the aura he exuded from the inside out—a sense of supreme fragility as if a jade mountain was about to collapse.
He lifted the flap and just stood at the tent’s entrance, taking in the scene inside the tent.
"Looks like I came at a bad time."
Even such a short sentence seemed difficult for the young man to utter.
As if in the midst of handling a murder scene, and suddenly interrupted by a stranger, everyone except Lv Bai felt their heart rate spike, although they weren’t the ones who did the killing.
Lv Bai, however, maintained his composure, pondering for two seconds before speaking: "No, you came at the perfect time."
"What?" Ke Jiangni glanced back at Lv Bai, not understanding what he meant.
Clang~
The Eight-sided Han Sword was drawn once more, its tip pointing straight at the pale youth in the tent’s entrance.
Lv Bai sternly reprimanded, "Speak, why did you murder? Such audacity!"
Ke Jiangni: "..."
Wu Ya: "..."
Xiao Xueyin: "..."
Whether it was out of anger at Lv Bai’s blatant denial or not, a faint flush appeared on Xiao Xueyin’s white, sickly face.
"You don’t need to do this, I’m not here for you, my original target was her."
Xiao Xueyin gestured at the corpse that had been cut into two halves behind Lv Bai, then added, "Too bad I came late, so inviting you to join us is also a..."
Before he could finish saying ’also an option’, Lv Bai had already moved.
The Eight-sided Han Sword thrust straight forward, evaded deftly by Xiao Xueyin’s sidestep.
Lv Bai was somewhat surprised at the other party’s rapid response, then lifted his right knee, aiming at Xiao Xueyin, who hadn’t yet stood upright.
But this attack also failed.
Somehow, Xiao Xueyin had crossed his hands in front of him.
Bang!
The dull sound of collision made one’s teeth ache.
Xiao Xueyin’s legs lifted off the ground, flipping backward twice in the air, seemingly showy, but actually maximizing the mitigation of Lv Bai’s knee strike impact.
The commotion from the collision quickly attracted residents nearby the tent, with quite a few starting to look this way.
Realizing this, Lv Bai stopped attacking.
Part of the reason for stopping was also because the opponent didn’t appear as weak as he seemed.
One must know, besides not using [Blood Burst], none of his consecutive attacks held back.
"I can forgive you for attacking me, I can see your skill is good." 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺
Xiao Xueyin flexed his arms: "Then let me ask you one last time, will you join us?"
Us?
Lv Bai noted the other’s wording and quietly sheathed the Eight-sided Han Sword: "If I join, what will I need to do?"
"Just like what you did just now, eliminate the other Death Fighters."
A young man with a rainbow-colored mohawk hairdo suddenly jumped down from a tent, and before he spoke, Lv Bai hadn’t even noticed someone was on the tent top.
Behind Xiao Xueyin, another man and woman emerged from the crowd, and Lv Bai shifted his gaze from the mohawk over to them.
The young man wearing a gray hoodie pulled his hood back, shrugging nonchalantly: "Don’t look at me, I was pulled in last minute too."
"That’s how it is, our team currently has four people, adding you would make five just right."
Xiao Xueyin’s attitude seemed quite sincere.
Or perhaps, under his unique temperament, everything he said seemed fairly credible.
"Hey hey! I haven’t agreed yet, wasn’t the deal to make the last partner a pretty sister?"
The one speaking was a girl with several lip piercings, despite the heavy makeup, her young age was evident, probably around sixteen or seventeen.
"The pretty sister is already dead." Xiao Xueyin consoled simply.
Liu Yue stuck out her tongue to lick her lip piercing, looking sideways at Lv Bai without manners: "Hey, I like bad boys, how bad are you?"
Lv Bai was silent for a moment, then said: "I have multiple organ failure."
With that, it was the other people’s turn to fall silent.
"Hahaha!"
Liu Yue burst into laughter, swaying back and forth, with no lady-like demeanor: "You’re killing me with laughter, fine, he’s the one, I like this type."
The mohawk and hoodie guy exchanged a glance, feeling increasingly that the group had no future.
"So does this mean I’m in? No need to sync our granularity or anything?" Lv Bai raised an eyebrow.
Xiao Xueyin let out a long breath.
"No matter what, we have at least come to a reluctant agreement, right?"
With that, he voluntarily revealed an ability that he possessed.
