Wu Han

Shen Sui walked over to the nineteen survivors who had lost their hands, his gaze calm as he scanned their vehicles, checking whether any of them were Transcendent Transports...

After all...

He had forced twenty survivors to participate in this [Choice].

Precisely for the sake of getting a Transcendent Transport!

The nineteen survivors were also brimming with excitement.

They gazed at their prized vehicles, unable to tear themselves away!

There were vehicles of every kind.

At the upper end was a large passenger van with a full twelve seats.

At the lower end was an ordinary electric scooter.

But whatever the vehicle, its owner was thrilled!

Because it meant that when they moved on, they could travel right at the front of the group!

Countless unlucky souls on foot would be behind them, taking the hits for them!

After a quick inspection, a flicker of disappointment crossed Shen Sui's eyes, and he shook his head slightly.

What a shame...

All of these vehicles were ordinary. Not one was a Transcendent Transport.

Still, he had expected as much. Transcendent Transports were hardly easy to obtain. If all it took to get one was sacrificing a few survivors' left hands...

Then their group wouldn't have had just one Transcendent Transport.

And a bicycle, at that.

However...

There was still one he hadn't checked.

Shen Sui glanced toward Lin Yu, who was standing alone in an open space, holding the Demon Spirit Rabbit Skateboard. The frustration on his face had vanished completely, leaving only calm.

After a glance at the skateboard, Shen Sui paid him no further attention.

Just a skateboard...

Forget it!

If Lin Yu had still looked frustrated, or had been sighing and acting irritated, that would actually have drawn Shen Sui's attention.

But Lin Yu had regained his composure.

That was much more in keeping with his usual demeanor.

It didn't arouse Shen Sui's suspicions.

Just then...

A large number of survivors began gathering around the nineteen vehicle owners, their eyes full of eagerness to please as they struck up conversations and tried to get on their good side.

Naturally, they had only one goal.

To get a ride.

Many of the vehicles had plenty of empty seats. That twelve-seater van, for instance, could hold more than twenty people if they squeezed in.

And once they got a ride...

It meant they wouldn't be at the back of the group!

This wasn't just about comfort.

What mattered most was...

Safety!

"Buddy, we've known each other for ages. Let me ride with you, huh?"

"Piss off! When I was starving to death, you had bread and wouldn't give me so much as a bite!"

"That... that was just a misunderstanding..."

"Get lost!"

"I've got four empty seats! Women only! I'm only letting women in!"

"Hey, handsome... would I do?"

"Tsk... a little ugly. Whatever! Get in!"

"I... I can give you half a steamed bun if you let me ride with you."

"Half? Ha! I traded a whole hand for this! Forget it!"

"Then... a whole bun! It's the last food I have."

"Deal!"

"Hey, I keep things simple. Sleep with me for one night, and you get a ride for three days. Men or women, either's fine."

"Would I do?"

"You? You fucking stink. Get lost!"

At that moment...

The ugliness of human nature was on full display.

Just like food, seats in vehicles had become bargaining chips.

Many people...

Would rather offer their bodies.

For example...

Zhou Mei had already hooked her arm around a burly man's, constantly rubbing her sexy body against him in exchange for a permanent seat.

When she saw that Lin Yu had only a skateboard in his hand, she almost laughed aloud.

She even deliberately shot him a provocative look.

Hmph!

Serves you right!

All you got was a skateboard!

Poor loser!

You got the worst deal out of all twenty-one!

Apart from Lin Yu, even the worst vehicle anyone had received was an electric scooter.

A lousy skateboard!

What good is that?

It might not even be faster than someone running!

Of course...

Where there was evil in human nature, there was also good. A few owners offered the seats in their vehicles for free, allowing survivors with nowhere else to go to get in. The owner of the large passenger van was one of them.

And they...

Hadn't joined in the earlier attacks on Lin Yu either.

Just then...

The owner of the van suddenly walked over to Lin Yu.

He was a middle-aged man in his forties, with a large beer belly, an untidy beard on his chin, and a worn black shirt.

"Hello, my name is Wu Han."

Lin Yu looked at Wu Han and said:

"What? Here to challenge me to a Deathmatch?"

Wu Han smiled and shook his head.

"Of course not. I didn't join in when they were attacking you earlier. You survived Option B because you had the ability. Those of us who weren't capable lost our hands, and we have only ourselves to blame..."

Wu Han gave a self-deprecating smile and glanced at his missing hand, pain showing in his eyes as well.

If they had a choice...

Who would want to lose a hand?

Lin Yu said flatly:

"Get to the point. What do you want?"

Lin Yu didn't believe Wu Han would come over and spout all this nonsense for no reason.

Caught slightly off guard by Lin Yu's bluntness, Wu Han then said with a self-deprecating smile:

"Sorry, I thought we were still living before the apocalypse... There really is no need for so much pointless chatter now..."

Lin Yu grew impatient.

"So can you get to the point?"

A little embarrassed, Wu Han said:

"Uh... here's the thing. I noticed the vehicle you randomly received wasn't very good, so I wanted to invite you to ride in mine. If you're willing... the front passenger seat will always be yours."

Wu Han seemed very sincere.

Lin Yu looked at Wu Han. After a few seconds, he smiled.

"You're worried you can't keep the survivors in your van under control by yourself, so you want me along to help keep them in line. That's what you're really after, isn't it?"

With his motive exposed, Wu Han didn't deny it. He simply nodded.

"Yes!"

"I need your help..."

"And in return, I can offer you a permanent seat in my van!"

Wu Han's voice gained a measure of confidence. He didn't think Lin Yu would refuse.

Lin Yu had only received a skateboard.

Accepting his offer would be a win-win.

And he...

Really did need Lin Yu's madness, his ruthlessness, and his fighting ability!

Lin Yu looked at Wu Han and said flatly:

"Finished? You can leave."

Wu Han froze. A full two seconds passed before he spoke.

"You..."

Lin Yu glanced at the skateboard in his hand and said calmly:

"I trust myself more than anyone else. Besides, I think this electric skateboard of mine... is enough."

Wu Han wanted to try persuading him again.

But Lin Yu pulled out his dagger once more and said impatiently:

"Did no one tell you I'm a supermale?"

Panic gripped Wu Han. He instinctively took two steps back and swallowed.

"Then... all right. My offer will always stand. If you change your mind, come find me anytime!"

With that...

Wu Han didn't dare linger another moment and hurriedly jogged back.

He was genuinely afraid Lin Yu might snap and come over to stab him.
