This action made Zhang Hu resentful.
He knew that he had stirred up trouble with his earlier shouting, and Wang Ping was taking a swipe at him.
Meanwhile, Liu Mei and Wu Jun looked at Wang Ping with gratitude.
“I’ve never thought about abandoning my companions.” Cai Yonglong paused for a moment before continuing, “Instead of that, we should indeed think about how to crack the bizarre infection problem. Only then can Wang Ping continue to use his abilities. Otherwise, it would waste valuable attempts.”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s expressions became serious, and they fell deep in thought.
Wang Ping was also immersed in his thoughts, analyzing the simulation’s content and not wanting to miss a single detail.
“l have a question.”
At this moment, Chen Yao looked around at everyone and slowly spoke, her voice cold.
“What’s the question?” everyone asked.
“Why didn’t you get infected while hunting all day, but then got infected just two hours after you came back? Was it really because of the house?”
Chen Yao’s gaze was deep and penetrating as she slowly spoke.
“If there really was a problem with the house, Zhang Jun, whose temporary stronghold this is, should have been infected long ago.”
Upon hearing this, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
That’s right; they had previously worried about the house being the issue, considering relocating their stronghold.
But now it seemed, it wasn’t necessarily the case.
“Now that we’ve figured out its ability, the next step is easy.” Fang Yun said excitedly, “We just need to split into groups.”
“But we have eight people, an even number, so it’s hard to split evenly.” Zhang Hu glanced at Liu Mei and Wu Jun and shrugged.
“I’ll stay here by myself then. I won’t be a burden to everyone.” Wu Jun spoke, sounding somewhat downcast.
“No need.” Wang Ping frowned slightly and replied.
“It’s fine. I’m a burden, can’t be of much help, and staying here would be less troublesome. It’s really not for any other reason.”
Wu Jun gave Wang Ping a grateful look and spoke again.
“Well, since Jun thinks so, let’s just go with it.” Zhang Hu chimed in quickly.
“Seven people are easier to handle.”
“It’s also easy to handle with groups of three and five.” Wang Ping gave Zhang Hu a cold look and calmly said.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Hu choked and forced out a bitter smile.
“l agree with Wang Ping’s idea.” Cai Yonglong chimed in.
Seeing this, the rest of the group also expressed their agreement.
“l just thought that it would be safer for those without combat capabilities to stay here. If we encounter a horde of zombies, it may be hard to look out for Jun during the fight. If he gets bitten, it’ll be troublesome. But since everyone agrees, then of course we’ll stick together.” Zhang Hu spoke with a wry smile.
“Speaking of this is still too early.” Wang Ping ignored Zhang Hu t s words and continued, “Next, we still have to continue to avoid danger and find a safe way to pass through. Otherwise, our lives are still uncertain.”
“Yes.” Chen Yao nodded, her face serious as she spoke, “And our odd-numbered theory is just a guess and may not be correct. Even if it is correct, there could still be something we’ve overlooked.”
Wang Ping nodded, then closed his eyes to convey that he was going to use his abilities again.
“Zhang Hu, Fang Yun, Zhang Jun, we’re still not sure about the current situation. To prevent accidents, you guys should go rest in other rooms for now, the farther apart the better. That way, it’s like two odd numbers..”
