Chapter 189 A Little Superpowered Person

"Sister, what happened? Why have you been gone for so long?" As soon as Lin He entered the main temple, a group of little kids rushed over and surrounded her. They expressed their concern for Lin He one after another.

Long Yangyang already knew from Miaomiao that apart from Lin He, everyone here was a group of children. The others didn't know this, and their eyes widened in surprise when they saw the situation.

So Lin He was raising a group of children all by herself after the apocalypse? No wonder she had to rob supplies.

In an instant, even though a large amount of supplies had been stolen, Xia Tian and the others' hatred for Lin He lessened considerably. Instead, they began to respect this woman.

They united to fight the zombie horde because they knew each other, and even if they sacrificed themselves, it was to protect their families.

Lin He is different; she adopted a group of children all by herself.

"Sister is fine. We just have some guests at home, and she needs to entertain them," Lin He reassured her. Lin He then took out the candy she had exchanged with Long Yangyang and distributed it to the children one by one.

The younger children were quickly drawn to the candy, excitedly taking it and carefully eating it. The older children, however, did not eat it immediately after receiving the candy; instead, they looked at Long Yangyang and the others with wary expressions.

Even though there were quite a few children in Long Yangyang's team, they did not lower their guard.

"Woof woof!" After the golden retriever returned, it excitedly rushed into the group of children. As the children's beloved pet, the golden retriever was welcomed as soon as it appeared.

"Mao Mao~" Long Yangyang looked at the golden retriever squinting among the children. No wonder this dog didn't leave after awakening its superpowers. It must have a very good relationship with these children.

Long Yangyang looked down at the children and found that there were actually sixteen children inside. Children like Tao Tao, who were seven or eight years old, were already considered old. There were also three children who were four or five years old, and the youngest one was still in swaddling clothes.

Lin He is the only adult here, and she has to raise so many children. You can imagine the pressure she is under.

Long Yangyang took out three cans of milk powder and a case of milk from her spatial storage and handed them to Lin He: "Were you here before the apocalypse? Why don't we see anyone else?"

Faced with so many children, even Long Yangyang, with her cold heart, couldn't help but feel compassion.

“No, we escaped here. We were originally in a supermarket at the foot of the mountain. After the apocalypse, people from the neighborhood gathered there, forming a temporary settlement,” Lin He said.

At first, the supermarket had plenty of supplies, and even with a lot of people, life was manageable. Although there were bound to be some frictions, apart from a few minor disputes, there was no major danger.

The supermarket owner must have a strong sense of danger, so the supermarket doors are very sturdy, and ordinary level one or two zombies cannot break in.

Lin He was originally an orphan. Before the apocalypse, she returned to the orphanage to help the headmistress take care of the children. After the apocalypse came, Lin He and the headmistress, along with the staff who had not turned into zombies, desperately protected the children and escaped from the orphanage.

Of the more than two hundred children in the orphanage, less than fifty escaped, less than half, excluding those who turned into zombies.

The headmistress and Lin He were among the first to enter the supermarket. As more and more people entered the supermarket and the supplies dwindled, the survivors in the supermarket eventually started fighting.

In the end, a group of men who used to work as security guards at karaoke bars seized the supermarket's supplies, forcing others to risk going out to find food.

After finding food, they also have to hand over one-third of it as rent for living in the supermarket.

Lin He was among the first to awaken her superpowers. Although she didn't have the ability to teleport at first, her initial space was over 200 square meters. She took advantage of the fact that no one was watching and took a quarter of the supplies from the warehouse.

Lin He was lucky; nearly half of the supplies were food items such as biscuits, bread, instant noodles, and chocolate.

Every day, they would pretend to go out to find supplies, giving some to the leader of the temporary base. The group would eat sparingly, and everyone could barely get enough to eat.

However, as time went on, almost all the food options nearby were exhausted. Food became scarce. At first, it wasn't too bad; everyone simply reduced their meals from three to two a day, eating smaller portions each time.

However, as time went on, people who hadn't had meat for a long time started to look for pets. But Mao Mao, this super-powered dog, was so strong that no one dared to mess with it.

However, the other mutated cats and dogs, which were simply larger in size, attracted the covetous eyes of many. At first, people were concerned about their reputation and only dared to kill them secretly in private.

Owners who lose their pets can't find the culprit and have nowhere to vent their anger. Some owners even forget that the meat in their mouths was once their beloved pet because they finally got to eat some meat.

The affectionate terms they used to use to call me "son," "daughter," and "baby" mean nothing when I'm starving.

The mutated animals in the post-apocalyptic world are incredibly intelligent. Many mutated dogs and cats have broken free of their owners' restraints and left the supermarket. And now, the people who have had their fill of meat are not so easily appeased.

The supermarket staff focused their attention on Momo, the only golden retriever that hadn't left. Unfortunately, Momo was a special dog with special abilities, specifically a powerful fire-based ability.

After the men in the supermarket failed to kill the golden retriever in their attack and were instead burned by it, they had to give up their plan to eat the dog and instead set their sights on the mutated beasts wandering outside the supermarket.

Mutant beasts without masters, raised by the law of the jungle, are exceptionally ferocious. How could humans kill them so easily? Even those who consider themselves superior, especially those with superpowers, are no exception.

The superhumans in the supermarket faced numerous difficulties: dodging zombies, searching for mutated beasts, and killing them, all while food dwindled. The men, having gone without food for a long time, were driven mad by hunger and went on a killing spree.

They huddled together and discussed in private: since the flesh of the mutated beasts couldn't be eaten, what about the two-legged beasts?

I don't know when it started, but people began to disappear from the supermarket. Sometimes it was an elderly person, sometimes a woman, and sometimes a child.

Everyone was too busy taking care of themselves to notice whether the disappearances were caused by humans or simply bad luck that they had been eaten by zombies. Then one night, a mother holding her child noticed someone pulling at her.

Without electricity, there were naturally no lights at night, but in the dim moonlight, the woman could still tell that the person pulling her was a man from the supermarket, and that he was a fire-type ability user.

When the man was discovered, he was not afraid at all, but rather very excited. With his superhuman strength, which far exceeded that of ordinary people, he covered the woman's mouth and dragged her and the child in her arms toward a secluded place, which was the place that his group of superhumans usually occupied.
