Everyone has awakened, but I am the only mortal!

Chapter 67 I'm Not Giving You Face

Old Zhou disliked Huang Xiang and wouldn't tolerate her.

Hearing Huang Xiang's words, he sneered, "Talking so breathlessly, I thought it was killed by a monster, but it turns out it starved to death. You guys are no good either. Since you led everyone on this journey, how come you couldn't even find some food and let people starve to death?"

Huang Xiang ignored Lao Zhou and looked at Luo Zheng instead: "Last night I sensed the aura of a monster, so He Chuan made his move. At that time, the monster's aura was on your side. I suggest that you few go with the team that has infiltrated us, so that the monster will not have a chance to make a move."

Luo Zheng said, "We've been at the back of the group all along, haven't we? We're not far away, let's just keep going like this."

Huang Xiang frowned deeply. She didn't understand why Luo Zheng kept refusing her when she had already offered him a way out twice.

Luo Zheng's tactlessness also displeased Huang Xiang. She glanced at Luo Zheng indifferently, then turned and left.

Watching Huang Xiang's retreating figure, Lao Zhou said to Luo Zheng, "This woman wants us to lure the monster out; they want to enter the otherworld."

Ma Jun didn't argue with Lao Zhou at this moment, but instead said, "I think they feel the same way. In that case, we can't let them get away with it. Why should they get to do whatever they want?"

Luo Zheng looked at the group and said, "Every time you enter the alternate realm, your abilities will improve upon exiting. Don't you want that?"

"Of course I want to, but I also want to live with dignity."

Old Zhou spoke first, and after he finished speaking, no one else said anything.

Old Zhou's words resonated with several people.

Luo Zheng didn't speak, but took a few steps forward and walked up to Su Bai: "Su Bai, what are you thinking? Tell me."

Su Bai said, "When Huang Xiang came over last night, she said we were in the East, and without He Chuan and the others' help, we would be stuck here forever. I'm wondering if she meant the East or somewhere else?"

"I think they're exaggerating. If that were true, Huang Xiang wouldn't have come over twice to apologize willingly." Chen Hua glanced at the group. "Besides, when Huang Xiang came over just now, he said that the monster's aura was around here yesterday, and that none of you except me were suspects. That means the monster is me. If it's me, why didn't he say he sensed the monster's aura when he was facing me, but only in the middle of the night? It's clearly a contradiction."

Chen Hua's words made a lot of sense and also helped everyone to get rid of the misconceptions about Huang Xiang's paintings.

Su Bai said, "Then let's wait and see. As long as we hold back, they won't be able to. Anyway, we have nothing else to do, so we have plenty of time to outlast them."

Old Zhou chimed in, "That's right. It's best to find some food and water, and as long as we have enough to eat, we can keep going."

Among them, Chen Hua and Su Bai are ordinary people. They can go two or three days without eating, but their bodies can't take it for long.

This was the first time everyone had been so united. Luo Zheng said, "Let's look for food along the way. In these urban ruins, we should be able to find some leftovers."

Luo Zheng's decision made Su Bai take a second look at him.

Luo Zheng nodded sheepishly and looked away.

Throughout the journey, Luo Zheng has always made decisions with himself at the center, never considering the feelings of his teammates.

This incident involving Huang Xiang and He Chuan made Luo Zheng suddenly realize that even in the apocalypse, where the strong prey on the weak, humanity still exists.

Even ordinary people like Lao Zhou and Su Bai, who were weak and powerless, did not bow down to He Chuan and his group.

In the end, what matters most to a person is their integrity.

Only at this moment did Luo Zheng feel that he had become a human being again.

The faces of Huang Xiang and the others in front of them were not good either.

After a day's journey, especially when they rested at the ruins, Luo Zheng and the others split up to search for food and water, just like ordinary people, and did not come to their side.

He Chuan wasn't worried: "Don't worry about them. They'll know which side they were on when something happens."

Huang Xiang said, "I sensed the aura of a monster last night. Could it really be Chen Hua? Then why didn't I sense it when I was in contact with him during the day?"

He Chuan said, "It might not be him. Let's observe more carefully."

Huang Xiang said, "My intuition has never been wrong."

He Chuan glanced at him: "This is the east, not the western regions. Didn't you realize it either?"

Huang Xiang's face flushed red and then turned pale after He Chuan said that.

The thin, dark-skinned man beside him glanced at Huang Xiang and said, "We've been following these groups for half a month now. They haven't had any food or water. Don't you find it strange that they've managed to hold on for half a month and walk such a long distance every day?"

"Didn't someone starve to death yesterday?"

"Yes, one person may starve to death, but look at them, do they show any signs of being unbearably hungry or thirsty?"

Huang Xiang frowned: "So, all these people have problems?"

He Chuan said, "Perhaps one of them has a problem, but we haven't found out exactly who it is yet."

Based on the conditions they heard in the Western Regions, monsters are hidden among ordinary people. Therefore, he must be waiting to reach the edge of the otherworld before revealing his true form.

So they waited and followed for half a month, but found nothing.

Meeting Huang Xiang was unexpected, and hearing from her that she had already come out of the otherworld, while Luo Zheng and the others had entered the otherworld twice, He Chuan couldn't help but feel jealous.

He had entered the alternate realm with Captain Ding once before, but his abilities only improved slightly after that. That's why he came out from the Western Regions this time. After realizing that something was wrong with this team, he stayed close to them.

Half a month has passed in the blink of an eye. They have traveled from the west to the east and found that these people, who have not eaten for half a month, can still continue their journey. Apart from these two differences, they have not found any other clues.

He couldn't even sleep soundly at night, waiting for the monster to make its move.

Unfortunately, they only discovered something was going on with Luo Zheng and his group last night, but then the monster's presence was suddenly obscured by something and disappeared in an instant.

Thinking of this, He Chuan also looked in the direction of Luo Chuan and the others.

The group of people reunited, seemingly discussing something.

He Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, a cold glint flashing in them.

They're just a few ordinary people and a few ordinary superhumans; they can't possibly accomplish anything significant.
