In terms of looks, this woman was indeed quite pretty; in his subjective opinion, she was even better-looking than Ibuki Mio.
But how to put it—aside from her appearance, this person could be said to be completely useless.
"Um..."
Manabe Shiho feigned shyness and tapped her index fingers together, her desire for a handout self-evident.
What a shallow woman.
That said, Ye Yunchuan still looked at her with an expressionless face and said:
"Speak, what do you want?"
"Handsome, I've been hungry for almost two days. Could you give me something to eat?"
"..." Ye Yunchuan didn't speak, simply tossing a loaf of bread and a bottle of milk in front of her.
"It's food!"
Seeing the food, Manabe Shiho pounced on it immediately, tearing open the plastic packaging and beginning to wolf it down.
"There really is food!"
"Wasn't all the food on the island cleared out? Where did that guy get it from?"
"Ugh~ I'm so hungry, I want to eat too."
Seeing this scene, the members of Class C all swallowed their saliva instinctively.
Hearing this, Ye Yunchuan laughed:
"Want to eat? As long as you submit to me, you'll have at least one meal a day."
"As long as you give us food, we'll listen to you!"
They were already starving to the point of collapse; for the members of Class C, whoever had food was the boss, and they no longer cared whether Ye Yunchuan was from Class C or not.
As for Ryuen?
Ever since he lost to Ye Yunchuan, he had lost that qualification.
"You're full now, hurry up and tell me the location of Class B."
Not waiting even a minute, Ye Yunchuan urged her impatiently.
"I overheard this news from Ryuen and the others. Class B is currently around a villa by the beach. They have fish there, and Ryuen was planning to take us there to seize their food."
Manabe Shiho didn't dare to play tricks on Ye Yunchuan and immediately spilled the information she knew.
"Fish? I see. It seems they alleviated their food crisis by catching fish."
At first, Ye Yunchuan had been completely confused.
After all, he had cleared out all the food on the island, and even if there were some leftovers, it wouldn't be enough to fill the stomachs of an entire class.
He hadn't expected that the people in Class B would actually solve their food crisis through fish from the sea.
One had to admit that this group was quite capable.
It was just a pity that their fruits of labor probably wouldn't last for long.
"Manabe, you actually betrayed us!"
Ibuki Mio gritted her teeth, clearly very unhappy with Manabe Shiho's behavior.
The news that Class B was catching fish by the beach was something she and Ryuen had discovered by accident.
They had originally intended to take advantage of Class B's lack of vigilance to occupy that place, but they hadn't expected to be intercepted by Ye Yunchuan before they could even head out.
"Betray? I am now one of Lord Yunchuan's people; how can you call it betrayal?"
Manabe Shiho wore a fawning expression, then smoothed out her makeup and said:
"Lord Yunchuan, I'm not any worse-looking than that woman Ibuki. Can you let me be your woman too?"
Hearing this, Ye Yunchuan merely glanced at her, then looked at Ibuki Mio and said:
"Lead the way, Ibuki. You must know where Class B's base is, right?"
"Hmph! I was the one who found that place; why should I take you there?"
Ibuki Mio was clearly very unconvinced by Ye Yunchuan.
Seeing this, Ye Yunchuan leaned into Ibuki Mio's ear and whispered softly:
"Ibuki, you wouldn't want something to happen to Ryuen in front of you, would you?"
"You... despicable!"
Feeling the heat against her ear, Ibuki Mio was both ashamed and angry, feeling nothing but extreme loathing for Ye Yunchuan.
Chapter 43: Ichinose, You Wouldn't Want...
"To have completed integration in just a few days and even opened up a fishery by the beach—I can only say, as expected of Class B."
Looking at the few small wooden boats docked beside the seaside villa, and then at the few Class B students standing guard outside the villa, even Ye Yunchuan had to feel admiration for the cohesion of Class B.
Before the apocalypse, this would have been the case.
The goodie-two-shoes of Class B definitely wouldn't have been suited for survival in such a cruel school.
But things are different now; their powerful cohesion allowed them to keep most of their group members intact from the very beginning, granting them a massive advantage.
However, this was limited to the early stages.
By the mid-to-late stages, these well-behaved students would still perish in the brutal external struggles due to their overly naive nature.
Rather than letting them naively drown.
It would be better to teach them a lesson himself.
That was what Ye Yunchuan had originally thought.
However, plans could never keep up with changes.
"It's bad, everyone! A monster has invaded the villa! Ichinose's side has suffered heavy losses, hurry back to provide support!"
A boy covered in blood suddenly ran out of the villa.
Seeing this.
The few students responsible for keeping watch had no choice but to abandon their posts and rush toward the villa immediately.
"It seems they've run into some trouble. What should we do?"
Sakayanagi Arisu maintained the attitude of a spectator.
"Let's go, follow them and see."
Ye Yunchuan easily used Xiao Hei to break the villa's lock, having it open the door for him from the inside.
"What on earth is this monster?"
At this moment, Ichinose Honami was facing the greatest crisis of her life.
Watching the monster, which had well-developed muscles and a body like a cheetah, moving with ghostly speed as it continuously reaped the lives of her companions, Ichinose Honami's eyes gradually sank into despair...
"Run, everyone! If this keeps up, we're all going to die!"
"Run, Ichinose!"
Seeing Ichinose still dazed, a girl with twin tails hurriedly ran over and grabbed her hand.
"Why are you here? Hurry and leave, it's dangerous here, Himeno."
Ichinose hurriedly pushed the twin-tailed girl away.
"Then come with me!"
The twin-tailed girl grew anxious, as the monster's attention had already shifted toward them.
"You take everyone else and go first, Himeno. We can't stay here."
"What about you?"
"I'll hold the monster back to buy you all time to evacuate."
"No, how can we let you be the bait, Ichinose? Compared to someone insignificant like me, you staying alive is more beneficial for everyone."
To everyone's surprise, the twin-tailed girl named Himeno stopped Ichinose.
"Himeno..."
Before Ichinose could react, she threw the mineral water bottle in her hand, hitting the Sprinter on the head with a bang.
"Roar~" The struck Sprinter was enraged.
As prey, it was one thing that it hadn't gone after them yet, but it hadn't expected this piece of food to dare provoke it.
Consequently, it was immediately drawn to Himeno Yuki.
"Come over here, you ugly freak!"
After drawing its gaze, Himeno Yuki ran toward the upper floor at top speed.
"No, Himeno Yuki, that's too dangerous..."
Coming to her senses, Ichinose wanted to stop Himeno Yuki, but it was clearly too late.
"Hurry and go, Honami, it'll be too late if we don't!"
After Himeno Yuki left.
A short-haired girl appeared from somewhere and grabbed Ichinose Honami's hand.
"But Himeno, she..."
"Himeno sacrificed herself to save you, so you have to stay alive and lead everyone out."
Shiroba Chihiro looked toward the direction where Himeno Yuki had disappeared with a complex expression.
To be honest, she felt a bit jealous of her.
Logically speaking, sacrificing herself to protect Ichinose Honami should have been her own responsibility.
However, faced with that terrifying monster, she lacked the courage to step forward.
"What should I do?"
Even as she said this, Ichinose Honami remained lost, for she could not bring herself to abandon Himeno Yuki, who had risked everything to save her.
Should she lead everyone in a retreat, or turn back to rescue Himeno Yuki?
Ichinose Honami was truly caught in a dilemma.
"Still hesitating? What an incompetent leader you are!"
Seeing that Ichinose Honami was still lost, Ye Yunchuan, unable to watch any longer, led his people out.
"Who are you people?!"
Looking at the large group of people emerging, the timid Shiranami Chihiro was stunned on the spot.
"You are..."
Having regained her senses, Ichinose Honami also looked at the group with a hint of vigilance.
"So this is Ichinose Honami?"
Ye Yunchuan felt a bit surprised.
When looking at the illustrations, Ye Yunchuan had felt that Ichinose Honami was just average, at best on the same level as Hasebe Haruka.
He even thought she wasn't as good-looking as Hasebe Haruka.
But seeing her up close, even he, who was accustomed to beauties, felt a sense of awe.
It could only be said that Ichinose Honami was truly worthy of being a great beauty whose appearance in the novel was on par with Horikita Suzune.
Her looks and figure were truly top-tier.
