Transmigration: The Main Character is Not Becoming the Cannon Fodder!-Chapter 428 - 9: Best Friends Forever (9)

"My good friend was killed by them because she was unprepared. At that time, our people were no match for them. If I hadn’t awoken another superpower at that crucial moment, we might have been captured by them. Since then, we’ve held a slight suspicion towards others."

"Those ordinary people became mobile food for others, yet they also aided the evil. If not for them, we wouldn’t have been so defenseless. In this apocalyptic world, human hearts are truly unpredictable. The further you go, the more you see, and the colder your heart becomes."

At this moment, Zhu Ke felt a bit sentimental, while Li Yang hadn’t expected this and offered a few words of comfort.

However, Li Yang always found Zhu Ke a bit strange. Even though he heard these words, it didn’t mean he fully believed them.

Despite not fully trusting Zhu Ke, Li Yang didn’t stop him from accompanying them.

The team led by Zhu Ke remained in the convoy and continued on their journey.

According to Zhu Ke, they were blindly fleeing without knowing their destination. The world seemed vast, yet there was no place to settle, so it was safer to stay with the convoy.

Zhu Ke, though young, already possessed both the Ice Ability and Earth Element Ability, making him quite formidable.

Along the journey, they killed many zombies. Li Yang observed the zombies in the previous town and noticed that they kept evolving, yet everyone’s superpowers hadn’t evolved.

Previously, they acquired many crystal chips from zombies, but those chips contained violent energy that couldn’t be absorbed.

So how could humans elevate their superpowers?

Li Yang felt anxious; after all, zombies were constantly getting stronger, while humans remained stagnant. The future was easy to imagine.

Nowadays, dealing with zombies was already challenging and humans were decreasing in numbers, making their situation increasingly difficult.

Li Shuning had experienced different apocalyptic worlds, and this one was somewhat different.

The crystal chips in this world seemed peculiar.

Before the mystery of the chips was solved, Zhu Ke frequently appeared before Li Shuning, acting diligently.

Zhu Ke, though young and somewhat effeminate in appearance, was actually rather handsome.

Li Shuning was aware of Zhu Ke’s intentions in approaching her.

The convoy was powerful now. If he wanted to make a move, he would have to consider the consequences. If he could win her over with his charm, it would be ideal. When emotions run deep, absorbing her superpowers would naturally be easy.

Li Shuning liking such a person? Dream on.

Previously, Zhang Yuanyuan had been jealous of Zhao Qimeng and had a skinny man criticize Zhao Qimeng, which nearly backfired on her. She dared not act out again.

Now seeing such a handsome guy appearing beside Li Shuning, she felt envious.

Why did such a good-looking man take an interest in Li Shuning? She wasn’t bad either. Why wouldn’t he take a second look at her?

Moreover, this man was not weak.

Since Zhang Yuanyuan often visited Li Shuning, she naturally became familiar with Zhu Ke and found everything about him appealing.

Especially when surrounded by zombies, seeing Zhu Ke show off his skills filled Zhang Yuanyuan’s eyes with dreamy bubbles.

So powerful.

To possess dual superpowers.

Such a formidable man, could he be the male lead?

Thinking so, Zhang Yuanyuan’s eyes sparked.

Only a male lead would revolve around the female lead, right?

Of course, he could be a supporting male character, but are supporting characters this strong?

Zhang Yuanyuan pondered and decided she could make a move. Even if he’s a supporting character, why not win him over, since he circles Li Shuning?

Even if a male lead appears later, she still has a chance.

Needless to say, Zhang Yuanyuan’s values had become twisted. She had immersed herself in the world of the female lead and couldn’t snap out of it.

She firmly believed that since she could enter the story, she would replace Li Shuning as the female protagonist in this world.

Zhang Yuanyuan was indeed beautiful, with a great figure, especially with a voluptuous female physique.

Zhang Yuanyuan often took pride in this.

Unintentionally or not, Zhang Yuanyuan and Zhu Ke grew closer.

Zhu Ke learned a lot from Zhang Yuanyuan’s mouth.

Indeed, this convoy was extraordinary.

The leader was even Admiral Li.

Zhu Ke had heard of Admiral Li’s reputation, no wonder he was so powerful.

But in today’s world, regardless of being an admiral, personal strength was the true power.

Moreover, he had quite an appetite for Li Shuning, always feeling a rush of excitement, sensing she would be delicious.

Zhang Yuanyuan was friends with Li Shuning. Though she was an ordinary person, she might still be useful.

Thinking this way, Zhu Ke showed more goodwill toward Zhang Yuanyuan.

He even saved Zhang Yuanyuan several times and considered her when he got good food.

Moved Zhang Yuanyuan deeply.

Soon, the two ended up together, just like in the plot, attracted by Zhu Ke’s robust assets, Zhang Yuanyuan became more enamored with Zhu Ke.

Zhu Ke discreetly learned that Zhang Yuanyuan and Li Shuning were merely superficial friends.

After all, one was the daughter of an admiral with strong superpowers, the other just an ordinary person, with a huge gap in status.

This was good; it gave him a chance, didn’t it?

Admiral Li had great power, and his subordinates were loyal to him. If Zhu Ke acted rashly, failure would be disastrous.

He had to proceed slowly.

Influenced by Zhu Ke, Zhang Yuanyuan grew more convinced and naturally started considering herself Zhu Ke’s girlfriend.

Why should her impressive boyfriend follow someone else’s orders?

The convoy was so large, if her boyfriend became the leader, wouldn’t she become the leader of the convoy too?

Those who underestimated her before, hmm-hmm.

As ambition surged, she naturally began to take action.

With Zhang Yuanyuan and Zhu Ke’s burgeoning relationship and private scheming, Li Shuning watched and warned Li Yang.

Li Yang, having come this far, was no ordinary person, and knew well about the convoy, including Zhang Yuanyuan and Zhu Ke’s recent activities.

But for a long time, nothing happened in the convoy due to lack of good opportunities.

That day, they arrived at a small county town. After clearing the zombies, they stopped in the town to rest for a few days.

Some went to supermarkets in the town to gather supplies, a team went to scout around for potential dangers, and others stayed put to rest.

Li Yang and some others studied the crystal chips and recently made some headway.

The scouting team was led by Li Shuning.

Shortly after Li Shuning led people out, Zhu Ke, originally resting, also followed out.

Half an hour after Zhu Ke left, Zhang Yuanyuan hurriedly ran to find Li Yang.
