All-out Horror Survival: My Awakening Skill Point Allocation Sequence!

Zhou Xun looked at the members of the Yu Huo Squad.

The captain's situation must not be known to them, otherwise the whole team might fall apart. We should keep it a secret for as long as possible, at least for now, we can't afford to panic.

Moreover, this forest is a one-way street; Captain Zheng and his men will likely return soon, at which point the alliance can be discussed again.

"Let's go to the mushroom forest!"

As Zhou Xun spoke, he led the Remnant Squad and all the survivors toward the Mushroom Forest.

After a while.

Zhou Xun and his group, carrying large and small bags and more than a dozen trucks, appeared on the survival road, followed by a large number of survivors.

A group of people appeared in the mushroom forest and happened to run into Zheng Sheng and the main group of survivors.

Upon seeing Zheng Sheng again, Zhou Xun and all the members of the Yu Huo Squad became noticeably more enthusiastic.

"Captain Zheng, we meet again. We've said it before, this forest can only be entered, not exited; there's no way to leave."

Zheng Sheng looked at Zhou Xun, then at the large group behind him with some surprise.

"What are you doing here?"

"Captain Zheng, our settlement is no longer safe, so we're looking to hide here." Zhou Xun quickly gave a brief account of the situation of the Yu Huo Squad.

"Two months ago, the captain brought us to this forest. Unexpectedly, not only was there no strange invasion... but there are also a large number of edible plants and animals here, and the resources are very abundant..."

"...However, we soon discovered that something was wrong with this forest; we couldn't leave...and while collecting supplies, members of the team would inexplicably disappear..."

"...In less than a month, half of our team disappeared, a total of more than 2000 people..."

"...At first we thought it was the Divine Tree Cult and Grandpa Sheep's people playing tricks...but recently we've been gathering together, and people are still mysteriously disappearing..."

"I suspect that either something sinister is targeting us, or it's related to this forest. Especially lately, the frequency of disappearances is increasing, and I feel increasingly uneasy!"

"If this continues, I'm afraid everyone in the team will mysteriously disappear."

As Zhou Xun spoke, he looked at the peaceful mushroom forest around him, then glanced warily at the black mushroom in the center of the pool in the mushroom forest, and continued.

"I saw you guys stay here all night last time and nothing happened, so I thought I'd bring some people here to hide too."

"Captain Zheng, would you do me a favor?"

After listening to Zhou Xun's words, Zheng Sheng fell into deep thought.

This forest was clearly not as peaceful as it appeared.

Moreover, Wang Lu truly lived up to her reputation as a top-tier survivor; as expected, the area near this black mushroom was a temporary safe zone in the forest.

Zheng Sheng hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.

"Can.""

"You can find a place to rest in this mushroom forest, but remember one thing: no one is allowed to go near that black mushroom!"

"I will have paper figures guard that place, and anyone who gets close will die! Don't blame me for not warning you beforehand."

Zhou Xun nodded repeatedly after hearing this.

"Captain Zheng, don't worry. That black mushroom looks extremely dangerous. Even if you send us, we won't go to our deaths!"

Zhou Xun wasn't stupid, and he knew the danger of that black mushroom—a danger level of over 300 million. If it were alerted, everyone here would die!

The two quickly reached an agreement, and just as the Ember Squad was preparing to move into the Mushroom Forest, a quiet little black creature suddenly stood up.

His eyes were fixed on the convoy of the Ember Squad.

At the same time, Wang Lu, who had been petting the cat, suddenly looked up at the convoy of the Yu Huo team with a serious expression.

"Woof!"

Little Blackie suddenly let out a cry, not loud, but with a special rhythm.

Zheng Sheng, who was standing nearby, immediately became alert. He and Xiao Heizi had been struggling to survive together for so long, and the two of them had gone through so many life-and-death situations together that they were already very in sync.

Although he couldn't understand dog language, the barking was Xiao Heizi's way of reminding him that there was something "dirty" around!

Zheng Sheng followed Xiao Heizi's gaze.

It was the convoy of the Ember Squad. It was a large truck that had been heavily modified, resembling a doomsday vehicle. The cargo box at the back was at least several meters long, and it was unknown what was inside.

"Zhou Xun." Zheng Sheng looked at the truck without turning around, and suddenly spoke in a low voice, "Since you're planning to stay here, we'd better be honest with each other."

"Tell me, what's in the back of that truck?!"

Zheng Sheng's tone left no room for argument, and Zhou Xun's eyes clearly showed panic upon hearing it.

However, he suppressed his unease and forced an explanation.

"Captain Zheng, that's our captain's truck. It's loaded with a lot of supplies. If you need any, we can share some with you."

"Our captain was injured by something strange last time and is recovering inside. It's not convenient for him to see outsiders."

Zhou Xun became increasingly nervous as he spoke, because he noticed that Zheng Sheng's eyes never left the truck, as if he didn't believe him at all.

"Really? Now that you mention it, I suddenly remember." Zheng Sheng nodded to Xiao Heizi beside him, and the two of them slowly walked towards the modified truck.

"Didn't you always say that your captain wanted to form an alliance with me?"

"That's perfect. I've suddenly become interested in this. Why don't we all meet now and discuss how to leave this forest?"

Upon seeing this, Zhou Xun was greatly alarmed and quickly stepped in front of Zheng Sheng.

"Captain Zheng, our captain is in a rather special situation right now and cannot be disturbed. Please forgive us, Captain Zheng."

Soon, the entire Yu Huo team stood behind Zhou Xun, surprisingly united.

Upon seeing this, Zheng Sheng decided not to continue acting with them. Her eyes narrowed, and she stared intently at Zhou Xun.

I'll count to three.

"Open this truck and let me see it, or don't blame me for taking matters into my own hands!"

Little Blackie has an innate and extremely strong sense of the supernatural. It would never be wrong to smell that there is a supernatural creature in this truck, and a very strong one at that!

Seeing Zheng Sheng's firm stance, Zhou Xun struggled for a moment, but finally lowered his head.

Zheng Sheng's sudden inquiry about the truck's situation clearly indicated that he had discovered something, and the fact that their leader, Yu Huo, had not shown up for a long time would soon arouse Zheng Sheng's suspicion.

It cannot be hidden.

Rather than being exposed later, it's better to proactively tell them everything now. This way, they can gain Zheng Sheng's trust and truly form an alliance between the two teams.

And most importantly.

Zheng Sheng is too amazing!

The gap in strength between the two teams was enormous, and even if he wanted to hide the captain's situation, he couldn't stop Zheng Sheng at all.

"You may all step back."

"Captain Zheng, please come with me!"

As Zhou Xun spoke, he led Zheng Sheng to the back of the truck and quickly informed them of their captain's situation.

"Our captain has awakened the A-rank [Lion Dance] sequence, and has already reached the pinnacle of the second-tier sequence... The sequence ability is to summon a powerful, seven-colored lion that can devour ghosts and exorcise evil spirits..."

"...Three months ago, the captain was severely injured by a powerful ghost-level monster in its nascent stage on the provincial highway, and we were forced to temporarily leave the provincial highway..."

"We originally thought the captain would only need a few months of rest to recover... but who knew that the supernatural entity had already chosen the captain as its substitute..."

"Our captain has been assimilated by the monster!"

As Zhou Xun spoke, he slowly opened the cargo box of the truck.

Inside the dimly lit cargo container...

A huge, deformed black lion has taken over the entire carriage!
