Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

Just as the standoff reached a stalemate, Gu Tianqi arrived with his men. Seeing the soldiers bleeding profusely on the ground, he was instantly enraged.

"Sir, I'm sorry, we underestimated the strength of this gang. They have hidden a Level 3 psychic." Upon seeing that the commander had come over, Song Lian immediately felt useless.

"Never mind, even I didn't expect something like this." Gu Tianqi raised his hand, not blaming him.

Then he looked at the gang leader and his men, and said through gritted teeth:

"Open the gate first! We can't afford to lose any more of our guards! Get the ranged ability users and archers ready to attack. Once they've retreated a certain distance and the hostages are safe, shoot them immediately!"

"Yes!" Song Lian and Zhou Xian accepted the order and went to make arrangements.

As the base gate opened, the gang leader and his men grinned and retreated towards the gate, but as they approached the entrance, the gang leader made a new demand.

"Give us another military vehicle! Otherwise, this child's life will be in danger!"

"What the hell..."

Song Lian was about to retort when Gu Tianqi stopped him, coldly uttering only two words: "Give it to him."

After getting the military vehicle, the gang leader and his men quickly abducted the soldier and put him in the car. Then, after driving a few dozen meters away from the base, they threw the soldier out of the car. The soldier rolled several times before crashing into a large rock and coming to a stop.

Seeing that the last hostage had escaped control, Gu Tianqi immediately gave the order:

"All units attack! Where are the medics? Heal them!"

However, the gang leader and his men escaped quickly. The long-range attack only damaged part of the back seat of the car, but the people inside were not seriously injured.

Seeing that they had failed to stop the gang leader and his men, the military immediately sent men and vehicles to give chase, but unfortunately they were unable to capture them in the end.

After hearing this, Gu Tianqi was so angry that he wanted to smash the cup, but then he remembered that it was a non-renewable resource and put it down.

Then they put all the gang leaders and their associates on the base's wanted list, posted their photos at all the base's main gates, and put them on bounty missions, each worth 500-1000 points.

But Zhou Yang knew that these people would never come back.

They must have gone in the direction of that base from his previous life, because that's where he met the scarred man in his previous life.

Just as Zhou Yang had said, the gang leader and his trusted henchmen fled southeast. Thanks to the second-in-command, a psychic, they successfully evaded the pursuit of the military at the Baijishan base.

Given the harm caused by this incident of someone deliberately concealing their superpowers, Gu Tianqi gave the research institute a new task: to develop a device that could detect superpowers, in order to prevent anyone from doing something similar again.

The two senior professors at the institute said they were very troubled by this.

They originally only studied physics, but now they have to start dabbling in metaphysics as well. But since the survival of the Chinese nation requires it, they have no choice but to bite the bullet and go for it.

After Shen Zechuan and the others returned home, they went straight to catch up on their sleep.

Only after Zhou Yang lay down did he feel increasingly unwilling to accept it.

Thinking back to the base in my previous life, it was actually quite harmonious at the beginning. Thousands of soldiers protected the people and helped them live in peace in a corner of the world, establishing a small base.

Although it was tough, most people were very united and worked together to overcome many initial difficulties.

But ever since the extreme cold ended, and refugees like the gang leader and the superpowered squads joined in, the base has become increasingly chaotic.

The soldiers were unable to control these superhumans, and their voice gradually shifted to others, making it increasingly difficult for ordinary people to survive.

People were dying in the base every day. They gradually became numb, started forming cliques, and began fighting amongst themselves...

Damn it! He really wanted to chase after them and kill those bastards!

No, we can't let them get away like this!

Those people should have died in the early stages of the apocalypse!

Although the group escaped by car, they had only been gone for less than an hour. In addition, there were zombies everywhere outside, and mutated plants and animals could appear at any time, so they couldn't move very fast.

If you ride a pea to catch up, you should be able to catch up quickly.

Catching up to them isn't difficult, but the problem is how to kill them.

Feigning allegiance? Are these people really that stupid?

However, it seems that whether they believe it or not is not important.

He only needed to stall them for a little while, since he had a trump card in his spatial storage—Ahu.

He only discovered that mutated plants could shield mental perception after raising Ah Hu in his space. Even he, the owner of the space, didn't notice the mutated plant Ah Hu in his space. It's likely that the mental ability user on the other side wouldn't be able to detect it either.

Moreover, because of the spring water, Ah Hu is now more terrifying than any mutated plant outside. Even a single vine he pulls out is as thick as a hundred-year-old tree and can extend indefinitely.

She has an exceptional learning ability. Now, she can communicate with him without any problems and even helps him manage his space perfectly. He doesn't have to worry about things like watering, picking fruit, or harvesting vegetables anymore.

He then brought Big Yellow and the others along, taking the opportunity to stealthily ambush them, plus a big boss like Pea—it couldn't be more perfect.

Thinking this, Zhou Yang became even more restless.

After glancing at Shen Zechuan, who was already asleep, he quietly got up, changed his clothes, and headed outside with Pea and Big Yellow.

The iron gate in the corridor was locked after Yan Fei's last incident to facilitate everyone's entry and exit, with each person having a key. Now, Yan Fei only seals the gate completely when everyone is out and no one is home, or when only Gu Yaoyao and a few small animals remain.

So Zhou Yang took out the key, opened the door, and went out smoothly.

Meanwhile, Shen Zechuan opened his eyes as Zhou Yang led the little creatures out of the room. Hearing Zhou Yang leave through the door, he quickly dressed and quietly followed.

He noticed Zhou Yang's unusual mood on the way back, but couldn't figure out why. He originally planned to ask her after she woke up, but unexpectedly, Zhou Yang was now planning to sneak out alone again without telling him.

He wasn't suspicious of anything, but he was worried that something might happen to him if he was alone, so he decided to follow him quietly so he could help if anything went wrong.

Zhou Yang, who was in a hurry to kill someone, did not notice that someone was following him. He walked to the east gate, which he did not usually go through, registered, and then left the base.

Pea noticed that Shen Zechuan, the two-legged creature, was following behind, but it couldn't figure out what they were up to. It figured they were probably playing some game and it wasn't a big deal, so it ignored it.

After leaving the base, Zhou Yang took out a piece of clothing that he had taken from the gangsters at the villa but hadn't taken with him, and let Wandou smell it.

"Kid, remember this taste. We need to catch up with them as soon as possible!"

Pea sniffed a few times, then covered her nose, turned her head away, and let out a soft "yue".

Ugh, what is this thing? It stinks!

"Uh, does it smell bad?" Zhou Yang pinched the sweater, whose original color was no longer discernible, with two fingers, looking embarrassed.

Hmm, he didn't smell it either. Was it that smelly before? Maybe it hasn't been washed in a long time...

Pea glanced at him sideways and silently took another step back.

"Alright, alright, let's hurry up and get going!"

Zhou Yang put the smelly clothes away again, then patted Pea's head. Just as he was about to ask Pea to grow bigger, Shen Zechuan's voice suddenly came from behind him.

"Yangyang, where are you taking Wandou?"

Zhou Yang: "..."
