This action was tantamount to walking on a knife's edge; such a risky and radical behavior relied entirely on the ingenious use of the flying house.

Xu Shuai was well aware that exposing the flying house to the public too early would naturally arouse envy from others.

The risk is extremely high, especially when there are no definite means of self-protection.

Although he can gradually unlock the equipment station, manufacturing station, and research lab by upgrading the flying house, it's not impossible for him to put a giant cannon on the house in the future.

The focus of future development will be on gathering resources and recruiting reliable personnel.

That's what he thought, and that's what he did.

The problem is that in the early stages of the apocalypse, when survivors haven't been brutally killed and find a flying house, their first thought might not be to rush to be taken in.

Instead, they took risks and conceived the idea of ​​plundering by force.

Fortunately, we didn't rush to the shelter. The shelter, built before the apocalypse, must have had an unprecedented level of firepower.

With guns and cannons, and ample firepower, if they can't deal with the zombie horde, surely they can take down the flying house, which is a sitting duck?

With this thought in mind, everything became clear. Xu Shuai sensed the threat in Yin Rui's words.

Just as he was about to speak, Yang Kexin's urgent voice came through the earpiece: "Xu Shuai, something's wrong! Hurry, something's popping up in the pool!"

They arrived just in time; Xu Shuai had been looking for something to distract him, and he had a deep understanding of Su Mo's archery skills from before.

That kind of accuracy, hitting exactly where you point, is truly a headache. Therefore, he doesn't dare to make any rash judgments about Yin Rui's threats, nor will he act rashly.

"You want control of the flying house? Sure, no problem, I'll give it to you."

Xu Shuai readily agreed, his straightforward manner surprising Yin Rui.

"Isn't this too easy? Could there be something fishy going on?" Seeing Xu Shuai walking over with an innocent look on his face, her expression hardened, and she snapped, "Stop! First, show me the control center, or the tool that can operate the flying house."

Control center? Tools... Xu Shuai paused, then his eyes lit up with realization, and he gave an apologetic smile.

He turned around, stared at Ye Ziming whose expression had changed drastically, and said in a strong voice:

"Ye Zi, go up and take down the central control device of the flying house as that person asked."

Just as Ye Ziming was about to swear, Xu Shuai's muttered words came through the earpiece: "Just grab any remote, make do, keep your emotions in check, act appropriately, and don't give yourself away."

"Old Xu, I don't like hearing you say that. It makes it sound like I'm easily exposed. Don't worry, I'm a natural at acting."

Ye Ziming, who was supposed to go upstairs to get the central command, rushed to Xu Shuai with an angry expression and grabbed Xu Shuai by the collar:

"How could you do this? That's the core of the entire flying house. Handing over the central hub is practically begging for mercy."

"Stop! Let him go right now! If you don't behave, I'll shoot you with an arrow."

While upholding Xu Shuai's prestige, Yin Rui raised her hand and shook the composite bow in her hand.

Sure enough, it's easy to pick on the weak.

Xu Shuai is good-looking, with long, slender fingers and distinct knuckles, but he is thin, which is obviously not a good advantage in the post-apocalyptic world.

Ye Ziming is tall and strong, but unfortunately, his monitor is no good.

If the advantages of both are combined, perhaps, when night falls and she is bored, she would be willing to give the combination a chance, a chance to climb up.

Noticing Xu Shuai's friendly gaze, Yin Rui coughed lightly, squeezed her thighs together, straightened her back, and turned her face slightly to the right.

Her left profile was more attractive than her right, and this feeling of having people under her thumb made her feel extremely comfortable, subconsciously showing off her advantages.

But now she is a completely different person. She wields a sharp weapon and can decide life and death with a single word. She is now incredibly powerful and influential.

At this moment, Yin Rui saw Ye Ziming angrily let go and climb onto the flying house.

Before long, he returned, holding a long black strip about two fingers thick.

Reluctantly, he glared at Yin Rui before handing over the central control unit of the flying house to Xu Shuai.

Seeing this, Yin Rui was overjoyed and pursed her dry lips.

Seeing that Su Mo had not yet recovered from her self-doubt, she changed her posture, put down the composite bow, and beckoned to Xu Shuai with her finger.

Upon receiving the instruction, Xu Shuai jogged closer, but after running only a few dozen meters, she seemed to remember something and immediately called out to stop:

"Stop. Try operating it first. I need to make sure the tool in your hand is indeed the central control center of the flying house."

"How do you want to check?"

Yin Rui opened his mouth, pondered for a moment, and said, "First, control the flying house to float up and down, then fly back and forth. I need to watch you operate it."

Xu Shuai nodded, took the remote control, aimed it at the flying house, and explained while pressing the buttons.

After a brief trial, Yin Rui temporarily believed that this tool could control the flying house.

But the more she looked at the central hub of the flying house, the more it resembled an air conditioner remote control.

Is this guy trying to fool me? Thinking this, Yin Rui coughed and said, "Just stand still and throw me that flying house controller."

Although there was an iron gate in the way, Xu Shuai's height was a significant advantage.

If Xu Shuai harbors ulterior motives and takes advantage of her focus on operating the flying house to climb over the iron gate, she will suffer a great loss if she cannot dodge in time at close range.

After all, she knew absolutely nothing about archery.

It was just copying Su Mo's posture when drawing a bow and shooting an arrow.

With victory within reach, she had to be extremely careful and not be tempted by Xu Shuai's handsome face.

Xu Shuai stood still, twenty meters away, and with a flick of his arm, he could easily fling the remote control away.

Hearing the prompt from the earpiece, Xu Shuai suddenly changed his mind, squatted down, and threw the remote control forward.

The force was controlled just right, and the remote control stopped 1 meter away from the iron gate.

Seeing this, Yin Rui couldn't tell whether Xu Shuai did it on purpose or accidentally.

He opened his eyes, glared at Xu Shuai, and signaled to the other party not to make any rash moves.

He then took an arrow, reached his hand into the gap in the iron gate to try and hook it, and after some attempts, his chest throbbed with pain.

No matter how hard she tried, she was always ten centimeters away from the remote control that was right in front of her.

"Do you need my help?"

Xu Shuai rubbed his sore arms and asked expectantly from a distance.

Yin Rui remained silent, clutching her chest, quietly scrutinizing Xu Shuai's expression.

Sensing no malice from the other party, she hesitated for a moment, then kicked the sole of Su Mo's shoe and said coldly:

"Alright, stop daydreaming. Hurry up and climb in to get the controller for the flying house for me. Maybe then I can consider helping you out in the future."

It's just a small cut on the forehead. Why pretend to be crazy? It looks scary that you're covered in blood, but the wound on your forehead has already started to heal.

Stimulated by the external force, Su Mo slowly came back to her senses, gave a cold laugh, and remained unmoved.

She swayed as she got up and slowly walked in the direction she had come from.

Whoosh!

An arrow slid past Su Mo, its metal scraping against the ground and sending sparks flying.

"I'll only say it once, so don't say I didn't give you a chance."
