Apocalyptic Disaster: Stockpile Supplies for Free and Make a Comeback

Chapter 96 The New Talented One

Song Jinhe raised her knife and pointed it at the gifted individual ten steps away, "What the hell did you say?"

The ground beneath his feet began to undulate. Zhou Da sneered, took a step back, and retreated from the area of ​​influence. Unable to catch him, the mutated zombie turned around and attacked, tearing at Jiang Shi'an, who was also trapped in the middle.

A wall of water rose from the ground, blocking the stones controlled by Zhou Da and the homemade detonators he threw out.

Jiang Shi'an raised his elbow and pressed it against the mutated zombie's neck. The drops of blood dripping from his hand drove the mutated zombie even crazier. It opened its black mouth, revealing thick, putrid liquid, and lunged forward recklessly.

"Follow me." Song Jinhe glanced at the situation on the field and said to Qi Sixing beside her, "The opponent has reached their limit and can no longer concentrate on dealing with us."

If this person could really extend their talent to that wide area, they would have already conquered this place themselves.

If he hadn't used his talent to divide the battlefield and used the mutated zombies to hold off Jiang Shi'an, he would have long since run out of strength to continue fighting.

Song Jinhe jumped over the car roof, and Qi Sixing, knowing the route, landed before her and blocked her way to catch the other's fist.

The water wall disappeared, and Zhou Da let out a wail, as if he were going mad in extreme pain. His sudden burst of talent pushed Qi Sixing away.

Seizing the opportunity, Song Jinhe rushed forward with her knife, directly using a mental attack to disrupt her opponent.

She stabbed him in the back, hitting a vital spot. His body couldn't withstand the burst of talent. Zhou Da, who was already half-crippled, couldn't resist at all. His face, swollen from being soaked in water and with bloodshot eyes, crashed heavily to the ground.

Jiang Shi'an also forcibly snapped the neck of the mutated zombie.

When Qi Sixing got up from the ground, which had returned to calm, there was a very shallow scratch on his cheek.

It wasn't from rubble or impact, but rather from being scratched by a raised black lump on the zombie's arm as it fell.

"Holy crap." Qi Sixing stared helplessly at the tiny, soon-to-heal wound on his face in the car's rearview mirror.

"I had imagined what circumstances I might die under, but I never expected it to be such a small wound."

After the initial panic subsided, all that remained was the urge to cry. "This is outrageous! How could I be so unlucky!"

Song Jinhe was silent for a moment, then comforted her, "Don't worry, it wasn't a bite or a scratch, it's not necessarily true."

"But there's blood." Qi Sixing looked at himself in the mirror, somewhat dazed.

It all happened so suddenly. If he had been bitten, he might have felt a bit better, but such a small cut is just too frustrating.

Jiang Shi'an used his knife to cut through the gaps in the hard black substance on the mutated zombie's body. This substance looked like a sharp stone, but it wasn't a foreign object attached to it. Instead, it was scale-like tissue that grew out of the wound after the zombie was burned.

Such a change is naturally the work of the virus.

Jiang Shi'an also had wounds on his hands, but as a gifted individual, his superficial wounds only needed to be disinfected and treated.

"Take a rest, don't overthink it, it's okay." Song Jinhe looked at Qi Sixing, who was sitting next to the RV.

The group didn't have much on them; they only had two detonators left.
After checking that there were no missing knives, Song Jinhe and Jiang Shi'an went to the police station together, where they found several skeletons and three bullets.

Weapon resources remain the hardest thing to obtain in the apocalypse.

In the afternoon, Qi Sixing participated in the search and sorting of supplies. Although he seemed to have let go of the past, there was still a faint sadness in his expression.

Braving temperatures of over 30 degrees Celsius, it took them a whole day to tidy up the abandoned cars and the supplies in the houses, and they haven't even started organizing them yet.

During the hottest hours of midday, I turned on the air conditioning and refrigerator in the car for a while.

Qi Sixing stuffed food into his mouth in grief and indignation. If he didn't eat now, he would turn into a zombie and have nothing to eat.

He has to die a gluttonous wretch.

"Sister Jinhe, can we talk about something?" "If I turn into a zombie, please drop me off on that tourist route to the west. I want to stay in a scenic place and quietly be a zombie."
When I can't walk anymore, I can just lie down on the spot. Just thinking about it makes me feel pretty good; it'll make up for all the regrets of not being able to travel before.

Seeing his energetic appearance, Song Jinhe's worries disappeared; he was much more energetic than her.

"I think you're fine. What infected person can eat three bowls of rice?"

The wound on my face is healing a bit slowly.

Song Jinhe opened a bottle of peach-flavored chilled cocktail, inserted a straw, and took a big gulp.

"What's your temperature?" Jiang Shi'an asked calmly.

Qi Sixing's expression froze as he looked at the two people opposite him. "I was thinking about eating. I haven't measured it yet."

"You're really thick-skinned." Song Jinhe opened the storage box on the table, revealing a mercury thermometer inside.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Qi Sixing took his temperature and exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, 38.6 degrees! I feel a little cold."

After saying that, he ate two more bites of rice.

Song Jinhe:
No wonder he's a college student with a tough life.

"Judging from his appearance, he has turned misfortune into a blessing, and there is a high possibility that he will awaken his talent." She looked at Jiang Shi'an.

"Mm." Jiang Shi'an nodded.

"A person capable of awakening their talent who is also infected by zombies will likely have their talent activated prematurely, provided the injury isn't too severe. However, the risk is higher than if it were to awaken naturally."
He may have awakened before showing any obvious symptoms and was injured by a zombie.

"Really?! I'm actually the chosen one!" Qi Sixing sat there chuckling to himself.

I spent the whole day in fear and anxiety, even thinking about where I would be buried in the future.

Things suddenly took a turn for the better.

"Stop drinking, have some hot water and lie down," Song Jinhe said. "We'll keep watch tonight."

She hoped there would be one more gifted person here, instead of a zombie.

"Okay." Qi Sixing grabbed his thermos, put on disposable slippers, and nimbly ran upstairs to the second floor. He locked the door and even moved some obstacles to block the way.

To avoid causing trouble for your companions if you crash.

Song Jinhe withdrew her gaze and asked the person who knew the most about the zombie virus and gifted individuals.
"Why? I couldn't even get out of bed back then."

What kind of incredible talent does he have?

“The symptoms of talent awakening are generally consistent, but there are individual differences. The first batch of survivors who awakened their talents had the most severe physical symptoms because their bodies had not yet adapted to the apocalypse. Therefore, the number of the first batch of talents was very small,” Jiang Shi’an replied.

He then took out his tablet, and placed the confidential information right in front of Song Jinhe.

"Most special talents emerged during this period."

Special talents like Song Jinhe's and Jiang Shi'an's are rarer than physical enhancement talents, even though it's still a time when those with strength enhancement talents are dominant.

Of the two of them, Song Jinhe's perception is more unique.

The data obtained from Gu Huai regarding the base did not reveal a second person with the perception talent.

"And you? Same here?"
