My Ability Pool is Superior-Chapter 38 - 37: Shelter

To be honest, when you have an ability like [Zor’s Group], forming a small team of five people among Death Fighters is quite easy.

After all, no Death Fighter would give up such a free boost, especially since the owner of this ability can’t receive the augmentation themselves, greatly reducing the threat level.

It’s just like an ADC in a team fight, they absolutely wouldn’t mind having a support next to them to help.

"Whose ’Node’ is it?"

Lv Bai asked a crucial question. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

"Ensure all five of us make it into the top ten, then when only the few of us are left, each relies on their own methods."

Before the words were finished, Xiao Xueyin added: "They all agree with this approach."

He knew in his heart, the team is formed, but the level of trust between each other is far from being able to entrust one’s back confidently.

If faced with a fatal danger, it would be fortunate if the so-called teammates don’t kick you when you’re down.

About this point, others in the team are surely aware, too.

Joining the team is just to make it easier to deal with other solitary Death Fighters.

Lv Bai nodded knowingly: "I have no problem then."

At this moment, he already felt the boost provided by [Zor’s Group], under the premise of having his body strengthened by the zombie virus, the augmentation effect he obtained was especially significant.

If it weren’t for the timing being not quite right, he almost felt like giving Xiao Xueyin another kick to verify it.

Fortunately, Xiao Xueyin didn’t know what Lv Bai was thinking right now, he clapped his hands to attract everyone’s attention.

"I’ll skip the idle talk, excluding us five, there are still 128... oh, 127 Death Fighters left in this Death Arena. Based on the latest positioning information released by the Deathmatch System, the majority of Death Fighters are gathered near that building, the ’Node’ is also in that building."

He turned sideways and pointed to the research center in the distance: "I’ll express my personal opinion first. Given the number of surviving Death Fighters, I don’t recommend we go after the ’Node’ right now, that would make us the target of everyone’s attacks. At this stage, it’s best to hunt solitary Death Fighters near the ’Node’, that’s all I have to say, anyone with different opinions can speak up."

"Tsk, what’s there to say."

Liu Yue curled her lips and waved her little hand: "Let’s hurry and set out, I want to see rivers of blood."

It’s worth mentioning that when Xiao Xueyin mentioned the pretty sister, Wu Ya and the other three had already walked out of the tent. They were just not so noticeable due to standing quietly behind Lv Bai.

Unlike other residents in the settlement, because of Lv Bai, they did have some understanding about Death Fighters.

Naturally, they could sense from Xiao Xueyin’s words that the few present were Death Fighters like Lv Bai.

Though they couldn’t understand the meaning of words like "Death Arena" and "Node" that Xiao Xueyin said.

But they could hear that they were pulling Lv Bai along to kill.

Confirming this point, Wu Ya mustered the courage to gently tug Lv Bai’s clothing and quietly asked, "Can you not go?"

What she didn’t know though, was that all Death Fighters present had enhanced physical qualities, even though twenty percent isn’t much, it’s not so little that they couldn’t hear from such a close distance.

Initially, Xiao Xueyin and others didn’t mind Wu Ya and them because of Lv Bai.

But as soon as Wu Ya’s words came out, Liu Yue’s gaze at Lv Bai gradually became strange: "I’m a bit curious, how do you even interact with these natives? It’s one thing to keep them as pets, but to let them point fingers at you."

Lv Bai’s face showed a friendly smile and said, "You’re not being very polite."

Clearly a genuine smile yet somehow making Liu Yue feel a bit uneasy.

"Alright, everyone has their own way of treating people, not a big deal."

Xiao Xueyin smoothed things over, then took five small walkie-talkies out of his pocket, keeping one for himself and distributing the rest: "If any unexpected situation arises, we’ll use these to communicate."

Lv Bai accepted the small walkie-talkie without a change in expression.

He felt like every Death Fighter seemed to carry some tool for communication, even Ah Gu, who was still locked in the lab, was like this.

"Then let’s set off."

Once the team members had more or less adapted to using the small walkie-talkies, Xiao Xueyin suggested initiating the action.

Afro and the hoodie guy said nothing, just turned and walked toward the research center, that little sister called Liu Yue was almost like that too, only before leaving she turned back to stick her tongue out at Lv Bai.

"Do you need some time?"

Xiao Xueyin glanced at Lv Bai, then at Wu Ya and the others standing behind him, without waiting for Lv Bai to answer, thoughtfully added: "I’ll wait for you ahead."

As soon as the Death Fighters left, Wu Ya couldn’t wait to say: "Can’t you not go? He’s mentioned there are over a hundred more people as powerful as you, it’s too dangerous."

"You’re sort of..."

Lv Bai originally wanted to say she was a bit too lacking in boundaries. As the words reached his lips, he felt it seemed inappropriate to say such a thing to a young girl and temporarily changed to: "Don’t worry, at most it’s just elimination, strictly speaking we shouldn’t use ’danger’ as the term."

"But..."

Wu Ya wanted to say more, but before she could say it, Lv Bai interrupted her.

"If you keep speaking like this, we’ll even lose our friendship."

Hearing the word ’friend’, Wu Ya finally calmed down, hesitatingly said: "Then don’t get eliminated."

Ke Jiangni spoke at the right moment: "Go peacefully, we’re quite safe here."

"You do indeed need to ensure your own safety because I can’t be your bodyguard always."

Lv Bai left behind a word of advice, then turned and smiled as he followed Xiao Xueyin’s team.

He was quite satisfied with this new team he joined.

Though it couldn’t be called trust, compared to Ah Gu, at least interacting with them wasn’t as repellent.

Whether genuine or an act, in the end, you’ll have to fight it out, so why not choose to cooperate with someone more acceptable?

"Handled everything?"

Seeing Lv Bai catch up, Xiao Xueyin smiled and continued: "Actually, from a teammate’s perspective, I shouldn’t say too much, but I still want to remind you, there’s no outcome between Death Fighters and natives.

If you really want to date, once this Death Match is over, I can introduce you to a few, but if we’re not in the same safe haven, then it’s not possible."

Lv Bai stared somewhat unexpectedly at the side of Xiao Xueyin’s face.

Being misunderstood and such, he actually didn’t mind, nor did he want to explain.

What made him a bit attentive was a word mentioned in Xiao Xueyin’s speech.

Why safe haven?

What are they taking refuge from?
