What's wrong with being a little arrogant in the apocalypse just to support my wife?

Jiang Yue searched through her memories, bringing out the pain hidden deep in her mind.

At this moment, Zhang Wenjing's eyes were bloodshot and her sclera were bulging. The painful memories that surged back drove her to the brink of madness.

The mental anguish caused her to unleash all her supernatural abilities. She clutched her head and roared, breaking free from the restraints Jiang Yue had placed on her.

Jiang Yue was startled and took a few steps back, where she was supported by Lu Yize beside her.

Lu Yize stroked Jiang Yue's head, then looked at the mentally unstable Zhang Wenjing, his eyes gleaming with a cold light.

As if she had been greatly stimulated, the hatred in Zhang Wenjing's eyes lingered for a long time. She looked up and gasped for breath.

The others immediately went on alert because of her unusual behavior.

The mutated dog, still covered in wounds, lunged forward, shielding Zhang Wenjing behind it. Two obvious wounds were visible on its strong limbs, from which blood was constantly seeping.

The two sides are on the verge of conflict.

It wasn't until Zhang Wenjing covered her face with one hand and burst into maniacal laughter that she lowered her hand and looked at Jiang Yueshi with undisguised fervor in her eyes.

It's like a parched person in the desert finding an oasis.

She took a step towards Jiang Yue, but Lu Yize used his supernatural power to throw her several meters away. Her already severely injured wounds reopened, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.

When the mutated dog saw her being attacked, a low bark came from its throat, and its limbs tensed up to gather strength. Just as it pounced forward, Zhang Wenjing used her supernatural power to freeze it in place.

Zhang Wenjing knew that it was her impulsiveness that had led the situation to this point.

She raised her hand, approached step by step, and subdued the mutated dog. At the same time, she apologized to Jiang Yue, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have tested you without permission."

Aside from feeling apologetic, she clearly felt threatened; what had just enveloped her was not just Jiang Yue's supernatural abilities.

If Jiang Yue hadn't fought back in time, she would probably have ended up like the two women who were blown to pieces by Lu Yize.

"I just want to establish a mental connection with her, find out the current state of her powers, and prove my usefulness."

When Zhang Wenjing said this, she didn't show any dejection or defeat; instead, she seemed to feel a strange excitement.

"Didn't you say that superpowers are related to intelligence? Jiang Yue doesn't even have a brain right now, so how can her superpowers be stronger than yours?"

Fan Jian is very clever at times like this; his strength is probably his ability to grasp the key points.

"Didn't I say later that superpowers are also connected to the brain, but I haven't figured out exactly what that connection is yet?"

After a pause, she added, "I can't figure out Jiang Yue's situation in a short time either."

"However, she just used her superpower, most likely out of instinct for self-preservation, and her superpower is most likely a kind of mind manipulation."

The blood around Zhang Wenjing's mouth was still wet, but she had already taken out a crumpled notebook from her pocket and started taking notes.

Lu Yize had no liking for someone who acted without authorization.

He was already being lenient by not intervening just now, which was considered repaying the favor he had done for her by guarding the base these past few days.

Zhang Wenjing is a psychic with special abilities and is very sensitive to controlling her emotions.

At this moment, she clearly felt Lu Yize's growing desire to drive her away.

She apologized to Jiang Yue in her heart, and then spoke without hesitation, "I just saw Jiang Yue's memories."

This sentence made Lu Yize look at her properly again, but his expression was more cold and sharp than joyful.

"Who gave you permission to look through her memories?"

"No, I didn't look at it," Zhang Wenjing immediately denied any wrongdoing.

"She didn't have perfect control over her superpowers. While she was turning my brain into a complete mess, she also stuffed some of her own memories into my brain."

"I was about to conduct a mental scan on her, but I was instead controlled by her powers."

"As I said, my superpower is not very aggressive, but her superpower is different; it is extremely invasive."

Zhang Wenjing, whose mind was turned to mush, still feels a dull ache in her nerves.

Lu Yize knew she was telling the truth. Although he hadn't made a move, he had been keeping a close eye on Jiang Yue and her situation. If she made any unusual moves, he would kill her.

As for how Jiang Yue treated him, Lu Yize didn't really care.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yue, being so clever, shared some of her memories with the other party.

Zhang Wenjing kept a close eye on Lu Yize's expression. Seeing that he didn't ask too many questions, she knew that as long as she spoke well, she still had a chance to stay.

“In her memory, you were in your second year of high school and she was in her first year of junior high. You probably don’t remember her much, but she… remembers you very well.”

Lu Yize was indeed interested in Jiang Yue's past.

But he wouldn't let anyone deliberately dig into her memories.

"Holy crap? High school? Oh right, our high school is a combined junior and senior high school program, so am I one of them? Lu Yize and I have been pretty good friends since our second year of high school."

Fan Jian pointed to his face, trying to find some sense of presence.

Xian Wenrui glanced at Fan Jian, recalling what he had said before, and retorted sarcastically, "Didn't you get hit by a brick from Brother Lu and have to go to the hospital for stitches? Is this what you call a good relationship?"

"What do you know? That happened in the first year of high school, what does it have to do with the second year? We just became friends after a fight, okay?"

Fan Jian recalled his high school days, chin held high, a sense of pride on his face.

Please remember, back when the apocalypse hadn't come yet, he was a well-known rich second-generation heir and still had some status.

Zhang Wenjing looked at the face of the wealthy second-generation man with some status, squinted and frowned in thought, and finally tapped her hands, as if she had suddenly realized something.

"Oh! I know, you must be the person in Jiang Yue's mind who has always been standing next to Lu Yize, the one whose face she can't see clearly."

Fan Jian gritted his teeth and left the chat. Fine, fine, so you're going to censor my face in your memories, huh? As expected, neither of these two is a good person.

Looking at the silent Lu Yize, Zhang Wenjing raised her stakes again, "If you want to know about her, I will tell you everything, but my only condition is that I stay."

Lu Yize sneered, "I do want to know about her past."

Zhang Wenjing immediately smiled, but the smile didn't last more than a few minutes before Lu Yize said, "One day, I will hear her say it to me herself."

"Now, you can leave with your mutant dog."

Zhang Wenjing wanted to make a final attempt to salvage the situation, saying, "I also know how to accelerate the absorption of supernatural abilities."

She didn't notice the strange looks people were giving her.

"Just as humans can absorb crystal cores, zombies can also absorb human ability cores, and I know a way to accelerate the absorption of both crystal cores and ability cores."

"This will not only allow Jiang Yue to become a high-level zombie and regain her senses sooner, but it will also allow you to improve your abilities as quickly as possible."
