Lord of Illusions City

Chapter 145 Duan Xue's Betrayal?

Chapter 19 What's Happening?

"Holy crap! What was that?"

The loud noise startled the two-hundred-pound fatty who had just used a war blade to chop down a zombie. He jumped up, shaking his head and looking around wildly.

Li Chenzhou found that this three-hundred-plus-pound fatty actually liked to jump. Wasn't that a little unscientific? Although his thighs were as thick as Li Chenzhou's waist, it was still a difficult task to support such a heavy body to jump.

"Stop looking, it's the parking lot!"

Li Chenzhou waved at the fatty, then rushed to the window and looked down.

The sound lasted for less than ten seconds before it stopped abruptly. The first thing those Shenxing Team members did after smashing the car windows was to open the car doors, get in, open the hood, and cut the alarm wires.

Seeing their efficient movements, Li Chenzhou smiled. Then, he looked down at the surroundings from his vantage point. Of course, he also saw Duan Xue and Gray Bear guarding the two entrances and exits of the parking lot separately.

"Huh?"

Li Chenzhou then remembered that Duan Xue had used the evolutionary drug, but he hadn't had time to ask her what skills she had gained. Moreover, it seemed that he should take on another follower now, so as not to waste his killing points.

So, Li Chenzhou opened his attribute panel. At the same time, Duan Xue, who was focused on waiting for the slaughter below, also received a notification!

Without hesitation, Duan Xue chose to accept. After seeing Li Chenzhou give Duan Xue the evolutionary drug, Duan Lei knew that Li Chenzhou would definitely take Duan Xue as a follower, so he told her in advance.

With Duan Xue's consent, Li Chenzhou's followers also changed:

Followers: 4/6

1: Duan Lei, Loyalty: 100, Combat Power: 40.

2: Zhang Hu, Loyalty: 92, Combat Power: 28.

3: Wang Fusheng, Loyalty: 85, Combat Power: 18.

4: Duan Xue, Loyalty: 50, Combat Power: 40.

The first thing Li Chenzhou noticed was that Wang Fusheng's – that is, Gray Bear's – loyalty had actually increased from 75 to 85. He couldn't immediately figure out why.

Correspondingly, Duan Xue's loyalty was only fifty, which surprised Li Chenzhou a little.

Although Li Chenzhou's entry into Duan Xue's shop at the beginning of the apocalypse and their first meeting weren't very pleasant, Li Chenzhou had cured Duan Lei's legs and brought them all the way here.

Even if she didn't think of him as having saved her and her brother, just the fact that he had made Duan Lei stand up again and made both of them ability users, Duan Xue's loyalty to him shouldn't be lower than Gray Bear's, right?

Li Chenzhou couldn't help but look down at Duan Xue, wondering what went wrong? What made Duan Xue's loyalty to him so low? Was it because of what he had said to her before? That didn't seem likely, right? Gray Bear had also been scolded by him!

Fifty points of loyalty meant that Duan Xue might betray Li Chenzhou. For Li Chenzhou, this was absolutely dangerous. He couldn't leave such a hidden danger in his team.

Even if the loyalty was low, it had to reach at least sixty. Although this number wasn't high, at least the value would drop before betraying him, and only after reaching fifty or below would she possibly attack Li Chenzhou.

With this process, Li Chenzhou could naturally be on guard, but Duan Xue's value could bypass the numerical change and fire a burst of bullets at any time.

Looking down at Duan Xue, Li Chenzhou frowned tightly. If he drove Duan Xue away… what about Duan Lei? He couldn't let Duan Xue leave on her own.

Moreover, most importantly, what reason should he use to make Duan Xue leave? He definitely couldn't talk about loyalty. Although Duan Xue had made a mistake before, it was already in the past. Li Chenzhou couldn't bring it up again now and use it as a reason to drive Duan Xue away.

"Master! Should we continue?"

Seeing Li Chenzhou standing at the window in a daze, the fatty walked over cautiously and asked in a low voice.

"Fatty, are you really willing to follow me forever?"

Turning to look at the fatty, Li Chenzhou suddenly asked.

"Of course! A day… no, anyway, you're my master, I'll follow you even if I'm beaten to death!"

The fatty answered without hesitation.

"Good!"

Li Chenzhou looked at the fatty, and then directly issued a follower confirmation. The fatty, who was looking at Li Chenzhou with some confusion, suddenly froze, staring blankly at Li Chenzhou, then nodded repeatedly…

Followers: 5/6

5: Shi Lin, Loyalty: 82, Combat Power: 7.

Seeing the fatty's loyalty, Li Chenzhou took a deep breath, his eyebrows tightening even more.

Although this fatty was very likely the top expert in his previous life – Undying Heavenly King Shi Lin – and it was definitely not a loss to have him as a follower, Li Chenzhou originally planned to test this guy first. After he killed a few zombies, he would even give him an evolutionary drug to see if he could awaken the powerful talent of the Undying Heavenly King from his previous life.

If he could, then naturally he would take him in. If not, then it would be regarded as a reward for killing zombies, and then he would send him to Luo Hong. At least he was an ability user.

The reason why he took in the fatty as a follower now was because he saw Duan Xue's loyalty. He wanted to see how much loyalty a guy he had just met for less than half an hour would have as a follower.

And now, the result was out: 82!

This value could be said to be even higher than Zhang Hu's. Zhang Hu's initial value was only 75, but that was because Zhang Hu felt that he had not saved Li Yunshan and the others, and there was a knot in his heart, which Li Chenzhou could completely accept.

But what about this fatty? From the time he met himself until now, it hadn't even been half an hour in total. Although he saved him, he also made him face the zombies himself, and Li Chenzhou deliberately tested him at the time, really just watching from the side, and even letting the fatty's arm get bitten.

Fortunately, the fatty's clothes were strong and his skin was thick, so he didn't bleed, but that was enough to scare the fatty half to death. With such an experience, it was estimated that Li Chenzhou's life-saving grace would be greatly reduced in the fatty's heart.

But even so, the fatty's loyalty was still 82!

Li Chenzhou carefully recalled that since Duan Xue and Duan Lei joined the team, he didn't seem to have offended her anywhere. Even when she was in a coma, Li Chenzhou didn't give up on her, although this was mainly because of Duan Lei, but at least Duan Xue should be grateful to him.

Moreover, Duan Xue herself was a very kind girl, and she shouldn't easily harbor resentment towards someone. But if there was no resentment or dissatisfaction, how could there be this fifty points of loyalty?

With these questions in his heart, Li Chenzhou left the window and came to the atrium, looking down. The fatty didn't know why, and followed him happily, looking down with Li Chenzhou.

Duan Lei was commanding in the lobby on the first floor. At this time, he happened to look up and see Li Chenzhou, seeing him and the fatty poking their heads out, he immediately subconsciously used his skill on the fatty, and then made a gesture to Li Chenzhou that only the two of them understood:

"Very green!" (meaning he is being cuckolded)

"Damn it!"

Seeing Duan Lei's gesture, Li Chenzhou was stunned for a moment, then suddenly understood, and couldn't help but swear. He finally understood where Duan Xue's almost strange loyalty value came from…
