Its game over now (Chapter 157)
The team leaders exchanged glances, none daring to speak up.
Finally, Mo Lin, who had been trying to hide himself, was pushed forward to speak on their behalf.
They believed Mo Lin could persuade Gu Luoyu, to go down. After all, they, as ordinary people, wouldn’t be of much use down there.
It would be better to stay up here, wait, and patrol the surroundings to prevent any other unexpected events.
Mo Lin, who had been pushed forward, cursed silently in his heart. He wasn’t that close to Gu Luoyu! But when he thought about the darkness below, which seemed like it could spit out anything at any moment, Mo Lin felt that it might be worth a try.
Unlike others, Mo Lin knew how to improve the success rate. Therefore, he didn’t immediately run to Gu Luoyu and start rambling. Instead, he chose to seek help from Ye Sheng!
"Sister Ye, look, if I go down, I’ll just be a liability. Can’t you…"
Ye Sheng, who had been asked for help by Mo Lin, was somewhat amused. This guy was so cunning, actually coming to her for help… If it were just Mo Lin alone, it wouldn’t be a big deal, and she could let him off the hook. But there were several team leaders here!
Although Ye Sheng wanted to help Mo Lin, she wouldn’t put Gu Luoyu in a difficult position.
Thus, Ye Sheng shook her head at Mo Lin, indicating that she couldn’t help.
Mo Lin immediately sighed dejectedly. Even begging Ye Sheng hadn’t worked. Forget going to Gu Luoyu and humiliating himself. He would just go down. After all, Ye Sheng wouldn’t watch him die.
Wait, the underground might hide unknown dangers. Would Ye Sheng go down?
After all, Ye Sheng wasn’t the team leader; she was just a member. She could stay here and wait… Besides, Gu Luoyu probably wouldn’t let Ye Sheng take the risk!
Gu Luoyu usually treated Ye Sheng like a treasure, where would she be willing to go to such a dangerous place?
For a moment, thinking of this, Mo Lin felt even more depressed. He thought he had a bitter fate.
He had worked hard to establish a team as soon as possible, but before he could make it strong, he encountered a crisis. Now it was all over!!!
Perhaps Mo Lin’s dejected appearance was too painful to watch, or perhaps Gu Luoyu found the others too troublesome. She coldly glanced around, seeing the nervous and uneasy expressions of several team leaders, and finally said, "If you don’t want to go down, Ye Sheng and I are enough."
Her words were like a great amnesty, bringing joy to the team leaders present. Mo Lin, who had been dejected, felt like he had been given a shot of adrenaline.
He hadn’t expected that after the dark clouds, there would be a silver lining. He didn’t have to take the risk of going down!!!
But…
Wait, Ye Sheng was going down too?
He couldn’t have heard wrong!
Thinking of this, Mo Lin quickly turned to look at Ye Sheng, only to find that Ye Sheng was calm as usual.
She wasn’t scared or fearful about going underground.
Instead, she looked excitedly at Gu Luoyu, her black eyes shining. If it weren’t for the presence of others, she would have probably pounced on her.
Was the exciting underground adventure about to begin?
Hehe, what was there to be afraid of!
Gu Luoyu wouldn’t let her encounter any danger.
It was just a pity that they couldn’t use bombs this time when going underground, or they might accidentally bury themselves.
Otherwise, Ye Sheng would have liked to try…
Sigh!
After confirming their relationship, Ye Sheng felt that she was about to be unable to keep her secret.
She felt a strong urge to confess.
Previously, she had decided to keep it hidden because she wasn’t familiar with Gu Luoyu and was wary.
Besides, she was the only one scavenging in the wilderness. Using the items from the lottery system didn’t require her to worry about others.
But now, she was with Gu Luoyu every day and couldn’t find a chance to use the items.
Or, if she really had to use the items to save her life, the secret of the system would be exposed.
At that time, she would have to rack her brains to explain and prevent Gu Luoyu from thinking too much… Just thinking about these things made Ye Sheng feel that it would be better to confess voluntarily. After all, honesty would be rewarded, and resistance would be punished!
She wanted to spend her entire life with Gu Luoyu!
She couldn’t leave hidden dangers.
But when to confess was another question…
For now, she wouldn’t think about it. She would focus on the present. What could be hidden in the suddenly collapsed underground?
Esper who had been kicked down by Gu Luoyu earlier still hadn’t made any sound. It was as if the place absorbed all noise, automatically blocking all sounds.
Gu Luoyu, standing beside her, noticed Ye Sheng’s eagerness. Unlike her coldness towards others, she looked down at Ye Sheng and gave her a soft smile, her red eyes showing tenderness.
Originally, Gu Luoyu’s mischievousness wanted to see the team leaders break down and the blood flow when they encountered danger.
It would have been very interesting. But when she saw Ye Sheng, she suddenly remembered that they had confirmed their relationship today.
Even though it was just Ye Sheng’s unilateral announcement.
But seeing blood was unlucky.
It would scare Ye Sheng.
So, Gu Luoyu gave up the joy of watching the bloody scene and decided to take Ye Sheng on an adventure to see the rare sights of this post-apocalyptic world.
"Aren’t you scared?"
After Gu Luoyu had driven away the others, she held Ye Sheng’s hand and walked to the edge of the collapsed area. Looking at the pitch-black darkness, she inexplicably wanted to ask.
Ye Sheng squeezed Gu Luoyu’s hand, a sweet smile appearing on her face.
Today, she was a happy little girl who had gotten what she wanted.
What was there to be scared of!
No matter how terrifying things were, they couldn’t resist the magic of love.
She was full of courage now!!!
Thus, Ye Sheng said confidently, "With you protecting me, I’m not scared!"
In the past, Gu Luoyu hated those who were weak and dragged others down. But when it was Ye Sheng, her standards changed accordingly.
Special people should be treated specially.
Listening to Ye Sheng’s words full of dependence and feeling the satisfaction of being needed, Gu Luoyu felt exceptionally happy. This time, she didn’t hide her thoughts and directly picked Ye Sheng up in her arms.
While Ye Sheng exclaimed in surprise, Gu Luoyu jumped into the darkness below.
Her casual movement made the team leaders who were secretly eavesdropping look complicated. Although they were all espers, it was clear that this one was more powerful.
Her calm demeanor had the style of a big shot.
They didn’t know where Mo Lin had found such a god!
No matter what the people above were thinking, Ye Sheng, who had jumped down with Gu Luoyu, felt the intense wind from the rapid descent but didn’t feel uncomfortable. Being held in Gu Luoyu’s arms, she couldn’t feel any pressure, and even speaking wasn’t a problem.
This was so exciting!
But just as Ye Sheng was excited, a bright light suddenly flashed before her eyes.
At the same time, Gu Luoyu’s foot kicked the wall, making her body suddenly dodge to the left, avoiding the sharp objects that flew past. In the next moment, she lightly stepped on a protruding rock and stopped the descent.
After standing steadily, before Gu Luoyu could speak, Ye Sheng immediately took out a flare and threw it down. In an instant, the underground was as bright as day.
