Apocalyptic Invasion: I Activated the Apocalyptic Points System

A sixteen-seat silver minibus with its headlights on drove up and came to a smooth stop about seven or eight meters away from the group.

Through the windshield, you can see that there are about a dozen people inside the car, both men and women, and the driver is a young man with a side-parted hairstyle.

He looked to be around thirty years old, wearing a black leather jacket. He had a cool, slightly rebellious vibe, the kind of handsome guy young girls like.

He opened the car door and jumped out, tossed his hair with his hand, looked at Qin Xu and the others, and gave them a bright smile. "I saw you turn in on the road, so I followed you in."

"What do you want?" The moment Chen Jianguo asked, the others gripped their machetes tightly and looked at the roguish man with wary expressions.

"I mean no harm, I just want to get to know you guys and see if we can team up." The roguish-looking man quickly raised his hands to indicate that he had no weapons.

"My name is Xue Kai, and I'm a teacher at Tianya Art Academy in Nanshan City. The people in the car are all my students," Xue Kai explained. "I hid in the school with my students for half a month, but this morning we discovered a large fog next to the school, so we had no choice but to run away with the students."

"I saw your car from a distance, so I followed it in to take a look," he said, reaching into his pocket and pulling out a work ID. "This is my work ID; I mean no harm."

Upon hearing this, Chen Jianguo glanced at the work ID in Xue Kai's hand. It read "Tianya Art School," the photo was of himself, his name was Xue Kai, and his occupation was art teacher.

Qin Xu glanced into the car and saw that everyone inside was his age, their youthful faces showing a hint of fear and unease.

"Why don't you go to the official shelters?" Chen Jianguo asked, frowning. "It's been half a month since the apocalypse, aren't there any official shelters?"

"An official shelter?" Xue Kai was slightly taken aback and subconsciously asked, "Do you know where it is? If you do, please tell me." His eyes were expectant.

"We just arrived in Nanshan City and are planning to look for an official shelter," Chen Jianguo asked. "Don't you have any relevant information?"

"Nanshan City is such a big city, there can't possibly be no reaction from the authorities, right?" Zhang Haitao frowned slightly, constantly scrutinizing Xue Kai's facial expression.

"Who knows?" Xue Kai pursed his lips, looking helpless. "The internet and communications are completely down. I'm blind and deaf, how am I supposed to find out what's going on?"

As he sized up the group in front of him, he said, "Gentlemen, how about we team up and search for an official shelter together?"

Chen Jianguo quickly thought it over in his mind, then nodded to Xue Kai, "Okay, but you must follow my arrangements."

In his view, whether it's one sheep or a flock of sheep, it's all the same. Once he finds an official shelter, he can just pack up all the burdens and send them in.

"No problem," Xue Kai nodded, "but you can't bully the female students." He subconsciously glanced back at the students inside the car.

When a pretty female student ran to the car window to look out, Feng Wenlong and Zhang Haiyang's eyes widened instantly, their faces contorted with lust.

"Why do I feel like something's not quite right?" Qin Xu muttered to himself, stepping behind the others and reaching for the dagger at his waist.

He instinctively felt something was off; he couldn't help but think that Xue Kai didn't look like a teacher, and the people in the car didn't seem like students either.

There's something off about it, but I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong.

"I'm sorry, but I don't agree to these people joining." He finally spoke up, expressing his opinion. "I don't want to be a babysitter for these students."

"No way, who do you think you are?" Feng Wenlong immediately retorted. "You haven't even been here a day yet, what right do you have to speak?"

Zhang Haiyang turned and glared at Qin Xu, sneering, "Brother Chen has already agreed, who do you think you are? You haven't even joined us yet!"

Just as he was about to speak again, Zhang Haitao glared at him fiercely, then turned to look at Xue Kai, who was smiling, and said in a deep voice, "I disagree as well."

"What are you worried about?" Xue Kai asked, puzzled. "Afraid we're bad guys? They're just a bunch of kids in their early twenties."

"We can team up and search for an official shelter together. More people means more strength," Chen Jianguo said, seemingly with his own ulterior motives.

"Alright." Zhang Haitao's expression kept changing, but he finally nodded and agreed to let Xue Kai and the others join the team. He seemed to have his own selfish reasons.

Zhang Haiyang and Feng Wenlong, standing to the side, looked at the pretty female students in the car with delighted expressions, seemingly already scheming how to embrace one on each side.

Qin Xu watched Chen Jianguo's retreating figure, his face dark and uncertain, unable to understand why he had agreed to let these students join the team.

Last night he even helped me and Zhang Yanan escape for our lives. Is he really such a pushover?

But doesn't he understand that in a crisis-ridden apocalypse, the more burdens a team has, the more likely it is to have internal strife when danger arises?

He must know!

Otherwise, all those years he spent as a border guard would have been for nothing.

Why would they do that?

Is he really a good person, or does he have some ulterior motive? Surely he doesn't intend to use these students as cannon fodder?

For a time, Qin Xu couldn't see through Chen Jianguo anymore and began to doubt him, feeling that he wasn't as simple as he seemed on the surface.

Xue Kai and his group also seem to have some issues. What normal person would lead a group of pretty female students to team up with strangers who look stronger than themselves?

Are you out of your mind?

Or are you giving benefits to strangers?

Surely it's not that I'm just being overly paranoid?

In that instant, many doubts and speculations arose in Qin Xu's mind, and the seeds of distrust took root and sprouted in his heart, growing rapidly.

At that moment, he knew in his heart that he could no longer stay in this team and could not allow himself to be in an environment where he felt insecure.

Just as Chen Jianguo and Xue Kai continued their conversation to learn about the situation in Nanshan City, Zhang Haiyang and Feng Wenlong excitedly walked towards the minibus.

Zhang Haitao observed everything with a furrowed brow, while Zhou Zhiqiang turned and walked towards the Jinbei van with a blank expression, seemingly not intending to get involved.

After making up his mind, Qin Xu turned and strode quickly towards the Wrangler. He opened the door and asked Zhang Yanan, who was sitting inside, "I'm leaving the team. Do you want to come with me?"

"Huh?!" Zhang Yanan was slightly taken aback, looking at Qin Xu's serious expression, and asked, "What's wrong? What happened?"

Qin Xu glanced subconsciously at Xu Xiaoli and the others in the last row and said, "I just want to leave. Do you want to come with me? If not, I'm leaving."

As he spoke, he picked up the backpack that was on the seat and put it on his back.

If Zhang Yanan hadn't helped him and if he hadn't needed a reliable person to take turns keeping watch at night, he wouldn't have asked that question at all and would have just turned around and left.

As for Feng Wenlong and Zhang Haiyang? As long as they stay in this neighborhood for a while, we'll find an opportunity to kill them!

In fact, after obtaining the Mo Dao, which he could freely access, he had already considered whether to leave the team, because staying in the team would risk exposing his cheat ability.

Zhang Yanan stared intently at Qin Xu, her mind racing. A woman's intuition told her that it was best to leave with Qin Xu.

"I'll go with you." In the end, she chose to trust her sixth sense, picked up her backpack, and got off the bus.

The two of them came to Chen Jianguo's side together.

Qin Xu said, "Uncle Chen, I want to leave the team with Xiao Nan. We have some personal matters to take care of."

Chen Jianguo, who was chatting with Xue Kai, was slightly taken aback upon hearing this and turned around to ask, "Why?" He looked puzzled, not understanding why Qin Xu would leave for no reason.

Standing to the side, Zhang Haitao glanced at Qin Xu with some surprise. He didn't expect him to be so decisive. After Chen Jianguo agreed to let Xue Kai join, he was about to leave. Had he discovered something that he didn't know about?
