Chapter 18 Are there any normal people left here?
"I'll answer that question. Your name is Li Shuaixi, right?" Chu Xuan said.
Li Shuaixi looked at Chu Xuan with a suspicious expression and said, "That's right."
Chu Xuan: "I'm a newbie like you. You just woke up, so you should have been able to hear my conversation with the veteran."
The wariness in Li Shuaixi's eyes immediately lessened considerably.
Chu Xuan continued, "The veterans selected us individually, most likely because they valued some aspect of our abilities. It could be a skill, our status, or even our appearance or physique. In short, each of us has at least one trait that would be useful to the veterans."
Li Shuaixi looked bewildered: "Really? But I'm just an ordinary student. I can't drive, and I can't snipe."
The overlord raised his hand: "I'm not the driver, I'm the gunner."
Chu Xuan: "You're the driver. Because the veterans said that after this battle, the team will enter the interstellar era. If your specialty is using machine guns, then you're still useless. I think the team doesn't select talent based on muscle."
As he spoke, he glanced at the crowd, each one of them unremarkable except for Zhan Lan.
Listening to Chu Xuan's boastful talk, Zhang Jie couldn't help but admire him.
You newcomer, you truly delight me! With such wisdom, combined with my strength, you will surely help me rescue the Central Continent Team from the Sunflower Demon's conspiracy!
Zhang Jie seemed to see Chu Xuan's face glowing.
That is the light of hope, the light of love and justice, the light that allows one to live!
Suddenly, everyone felt a jolt in their hearts, as if they heard a silent shattering.
The wind blew in from outside, and the protective shield of the main god quietly shattered.
Zhang Jie immediately stood beside Chu Xuan, intending to protect him. This strange action surprised the naturally wicked bespectacled man.
"Mere aliens! Let Zheng Zha/Li Xiaoyi test your strength!" Zheng Zha and Li Xiaoyi took the lead, and without saying a word, they rushed out of the warehouse.
bang-
Before anyone could react, the two sunflower people rushed out impatiently, leaving behind a door that slammed shut with a clanging sound.
Wang Lu looked at the door, and a wild goose galloped through his mind.
Is the Sunflower Manual really that bad? A gorilla with already low intelligence has been turned into a super-male gorilla.
"Drink! Hah!!"
Soon, the sounds of battle came from outside, clanging and banging, making quite a scene.
Zero, usually taciturn, spoke up: "They've encountered a battle. Should we go out and help them?"
Wang Lu: "Let's go out together, Zhang Jie will cover the rear."
The group immediately formed a simple formation and walked out of the warehouse.
Wang Lu took the lead, and with Zhang Jie providing him with a location, he wouldn't go astray.
In fact, just now, Zhang Jie had scanned the entire spaceship and, after processing the key information with coded language, revealed it to Wang Lu.
(The main god does not allow guides to directly help team members.)
The reason he let the newcomer talk to Chu Xuan for so long was that he was analyzing the information Zhang Jie had given him.
After leaving the warehouse, the group followed the sounds of battle and found Zheng Zha being attacked by five aliens in a very wide corridor.
"You beast! Take this punch! Drink up!"
Zheng Zha's figure moved like a ghost, leaving afterimages in the air! In a short moment, he closed in on a strange creature and threw a punch!
Splat~~~
The alien's skull was dented on the spot, then burst open, emitting a chilling scream.
"Hiss hiss hiss!!"
"Holy crap!" The newcomer, Li Shuaixi, couldn't hold back any longer and exclaimed a curse, his legs starting to go weak.
呲——
The blood splattered from the alien's explosion splashed onto Zheng Zha, and its powerful corrosiveness immediately caused white smoke to rise from his skin!
"what!"
Zheng Zha cried out in pain and quickly grabbed a spray bottle, spraying the wound vigorously.
Just then, all the aliens involved in the siege swarmed forward!
"Awoo!"
Bang—bang bang bang!
Four shots rang out as the Desert Eagle pistol bullets, accelerated by telekinesis, accurately struck the alien's skull.
Zheng Zha, who had been rescued, turned around and saw that it was Wang Lu who had saved him by firing the gun. His remaining sense of justice allowed him to overcome the onslaught of Sunflower True Qi and, with a stiff neck, say, "Thank you."
Zhan Lan asked anxiously, "Where is Li Xiaoyi?"
Zheng Zha pointed to the long trail of blood on the ground: "It was dragged away by the alien."
"Dead?"
Upon hearing this, the four newcomers immediately lost their composure.
No, I thought you veterans were so awesome! How come one of you died right at the beginning?
Zero and Overlord exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with suspicion, as if they were about to make their escape at any moment.
But the most panicked person wasn't a newcomer, but Zhan Lan. Unable to practice the Sunflower Technique, she had always felt intense anxiety, which was amplified many times over after Li Xiaoyi's defeat.
She looked around the group of strong men in a panic. Wang Lu was cold-blooded and ruthless, Zhang Jie was an ally assassin, and Zheng Zha was mentally unstable. She couldn't find anyone she could rely on!
In this critical moment, Chu Xuan spoke up:
"Don't panic. I think this is entirely within the expectations and even plans of the experienced."
Everyone immediately breathed a sigh of relief, and their morale soared.
Seeing everyone's attention focused on him, Wang Lu chuckled and said, "It was indeed within my expectations, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly."
Li Xiaoyi, that idiot! He practiced the Sunflower Technique but died even faster than in the original story! No wonder he only got the Iron Sunflower Treasure Chest; he deserved to die.
Chu Xuan added, "I guessed it from your reactions; I don't know what your plans are. If you don't mind, could you tell me?"
"I'm not only good at analysis, but I also have some ability in planning. Maybe I can help you fill in the gaps."
"Really?" Wang Lu was quite surprised. Aren't you bad at planning?
He took out a cigarette case and handed it to Chu Xuan: "Want one?"
Chu Xuan raised his hand in refusal: "I don't smoke, because it kills my brain cells."
Of course I know you don't smoke, I just wanted to hear you say that.
Wang Lu chuckled and put the cigarette pack away, then said, "Since you're so good at planning, let me briefly explain my plan."
"The guy who got dragged away by the alien was a useless cripple. I deliberately watched him die."
"Hiss~~~"
The newcomers all gasped in shock, and Zhan Lan was so frightened that she was completely at a loss, as if she was about to be abandoned as well.
In that critical moment, she looked at Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan: "I see, it's surprisingly simple. But isn't it a bit of a waste to just let a veteran die like this? I think we could at least use him to design some traps to lure aliens."
"Hey! You! Do you even have a heart? We're all newcomers, people he can discard at any time!" Li Shuaixi couldn't hold back any longer.
Are there any normal people left in this God's Space?!
