My ability pool is superior to others

After walking a little further towards the exit, we saw more and more signs of human presence along the way.

Of course, given enough time, everything can be erased.

But in this cold and humid environment, a mere four hundred years is not enough for plastic products to completely degrade.

Lu Bai stepped through the muddy and smelly stagnant water. The various debris piled on the roadside could no longer be recognized in their original appearance. Some plastic bags that originally contained things were full of holes, and their texture had become strips like rags.

He slowed his breathing, intending to quickly pass through this area filled with the smell of corruption.

The air along the way was filled with a thin mist, like a veil. It was not thick, but it could somewhat affect the vision.

Fortunately, the words on the sign have not completely fallen off, so there is no need to worry about getting lost in there.

As underground protective buildings built to protect wartime personnel and materials, they are theoretically constructed to the highest standards and their solidity is unquestionable.

However, Lu Bai discovered that the base of the cement wall had already extended into dense cracks, which made people wonder whether it would collapse after a while.

"An earthquake? Or something else?"

Although he was a little confused, Lu Bai actually quickened his pace.

He now really wanted to know what the ground looked like now.

Lu Bai ran to the exit of the civil air defense project in one breath, but was blocked by a heavy, rusty iron door.

The iron door is very well sealed, isolating the inside and the outside, and not even a bit of wind can get in.

Due to years of disrepair, the gear handle that controls the raising and lowering of the iron gate has been damaged internally. Lu Bai tried twice and almost broke the gear handle off, but the iron gate did not respond at all.

Lu Bai took a half step back and breathed a sigh of relief.

He didn't need to measure it specifically to know that the weight of this iron door was definitely over a hundred tons.

Normally, it is impossible for humans to lift this thing.

Of course, he could use his two abilities, [Iron Fist Cutting the Wind] and [Needle Girl's Soul], to blast the iron gate into powder.

However, considering that the situation outside is currently unclear and may affect the underground shelter, it is obviously inappropriate to destroy this iron door.

He then picked through his discard pile.

[Sky-horned Ant Bloodline (Gold): Gain a bloodline amplification of strength. Once the bloodline amplification is activated, the user can lift objects that are more than 400 times their own weight. The longer the user uses this ability, the body will gradually and irreversibly turn into an ant.]

The number four hundred times sounds exaggerated, but this ability is actually not as powerful as imagined.

A simple calculation will show that after an ordinary adult male acquires this ability, he can only lift objects weighing dozens of tons, which is still less than what a large Yunsan can lift, not to mention that it also has negative effects. It is not unfair to be rated as a gold level.

In fact, even if Lu Bai used the [Sky-Horned Ant Bloodline] now, the extra power he gained would not be enough to support him in lifting this heavy iron door.

Fortunately, he had already obtained the ability that Vice President Zheng possessed. In the temporary slot for [Read] this ability, a certain ability was clearly displayed—

[Multiple Shadow Clone Technique (Color): Evenly distribute physical strength to create clones, which can attack. The upper limit of the number of clones depends on the user's own strength. If the clones suffer any degree of damage, they will immediately dissipate. After the clones dissipate or are automatically cancelled, the memories and proficiency gained during the period of being cloned will be fed back to the main body.]

A series of white mist rose up, and more than a dozen Lu Bai appeared in front of the iron gate.

Lu Bai's real body stood in the middle of the iron gate and raised his hand and said, "Everyone look at me, and follow my command."

A dozen Lu Bais reached out their hands to feel around on the iron gate, trying to find a suitable point to exert force.

When everything was ready, Lu Bai chopped down with his right hand: "Lift!" Lu Bai and others listened to the slogan and exerted force at the same time.

Rumble~
For a moment, a huge roar echoed in the civil defense project passage.

The heavy iron door was slowly lifted up, and the civil air defense project that had been closed for four hundred years was reconnected with the outside world.

Lu Bai squatted down, and what came into his eyes was a wild, vibrant and green world.

Unknown weeds half a person's height grew in the cracks in the broken road surface, almost completely submerging the road surface.

The gray-black steel jungle in the distance is covered with a large amount of plants, and the tall buildings look like giants covered in green, standing quietly in the years when humans disappeared.

Theoretically, if humans disappeared in an instant, it would only take a few decades for any prosperous city to be covered by a green ocean.

Lu Bai walked out of the civil air defense project. As a series of bang sounds were heard behind him, more than a dozen shadow clones turned into white mist and dissipated.

He really wanted to express his admiration for the plants' breathtakingly vigorous vitality.

But the problem is.

Doesn’t the record of underground shelters say that humans moved completely underground from the surface because of the Ice Age?
He could understand that perhaps during these four hundred years, the temperature had returned to normal.

However, even though Lu Bai's knowledge of geography was not very good, he could clearly see that there was no sign of water erosion in this area.

"Does the so-called Ice Age really exist?"

Lu Bai walked along the road. On both sides of the road were rusty and blackened abandoned vehicles. The remaining paint on the car shells looked like dried rice paste. If you touched it lightly, it would immediately shatter and fall off.

The wild grass growing rampantly under his feet affected his walking efficiency somewhat, but as everything was unclear, he did not intend to make any conspicuous moves.

The fresh scent emitted by various vegetation makes the journey less boring.

It took Lu Bai about an hour to walk to the city.

Don’t even think about the various means of transportation in the urban road planning, they will definitely not be used.

He was just about to consider which direction to go when he suddenly realized that the weeds on the city roads did not seem as lush as those outside.

This result is not caused by the growth rules of vegetation. The state of the vegetation on the road looks more like someone is cleaning it regularly.

Lu Bai was silent for a moment, and finally decided to go to the city center first.

If you want to survive in this overly green city, the first problem is the source of food.

At least he hasn't seen any animal that could serve as food since he came out of the civil air defense project.

Even if there were people surviving, given the food shortage, their number wouldn't be that large.

Lu Bai walked through two office buildings covered with green plants and came to a site that looked like a square.

at this time,

A sharp sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from behind him.

With the ability of [Flash Time], Lu Bai can never launch a sneak attack.

He even had time to turn around and take a look at what was trying to attack him. (End of this chapter)
