Reborn in the Apocalypse: A Commoner's Survival Log

After Xie Weiwei finished her prediction, Zhou Yang and the other person left Xie Feiyu's place.

Back in the two-bedroom apartment where they were staying, Cui Ze was sitting on the sofa as soon as he entered, eating the rice ball that Zhou Yang and the others had left for him before they left that morning.

As soon as they saw Zhou Yang and the others return, they immediately put down their rice balls and looked over: "Brother Zhou and Brother Shen, you're back!"

Zhou Yang responded, "Okay. After you finish eating, go back and pack your things. We'll leave tomorrow morning."

Upon hearing this, Cui Ze asked somewhat uncertainly, "Brother Zhou, am I really going with you?"

Shen Zechuan glanced at him sideways and said, "What? You don't want to leave? Fine, I'll go talk to Xie Feiyu right now and let you join his team."

After saying that, he was about to turn around and leave when Cui Ze immediately grabbed Shen Zechuan and said firmly, "No, no, no, brother, I will definitely go with you!"

Seeing Shen Zechuan deliberately teasing Cui Ze, Zhou Yang smiled and shook his head, then turned around and went back to his room to pack their own things.

There wasn't much to tidy up, and we only stayed there for a few days.

So, Zhou Yang finished cleaning up in just a few minutes.

After dinner that evening, the three of them went to bed early.

Zhou Yang woke up before dawn the next day.

Since it rained the day before yesterday, the temperature has visibly risen several degrees. Even at this time before the sun comes out, it is around 20 degrees Celsius, and during the day it can reach around 37 or 38 degrees Celsius.

Besides homesickness, this is another reason why they are eager to go back.

The two got up and quickly washed up. Zhou Yang then tidied up the bedroom, and in the blink of an eye, the master bedroom looked as bare as when they first arrived.

After Cui Ze got up, Zhou Yang put his things into his spatial storage, and the three of them sat down in the living room and ate breakfast at the small coffee table.

After eating and drinking their fill and putting away their belongings, Zhou Yang and the other two decided to leave.

However, before leaving, they still had to return the house key.

So Zhou Yang and the other two went to Xie Feiyu's villa.

It was still early, and they didn't plan to go in. Anyway, there were guards on duty at the gate, so they could just hand over the keys to them.

However, they ran into Xie Feiyu, who was about to leave, just as they stepped outside the villa.

"Captain Xie, you're up so early?"

"I was just thinking of giving you a ride. By the way, have you had breakfast? Did you bring enough food for the journey?"

Shen Zechuan shook his head: "No need, we've already eaten, and we've had enough to eat on the way. We'll just return the keys and leave. It's getting hotter and hotter, so we need to hurry on our way."

He then handed over the keys in his hand.

"That's true." Xie Feiyu took the keys and didn't try to stop you. "Alright then, I won't keep you any longer. Come back anytime you want next time."

"Don't worry, we still have property here. We'll come back to visit when we have time."

Zhou Yang and the other two then said goodbye to Xie Feiyu and left the family compound.

Afterwards, the three of them retrieved their car from the parking lot and left the Hecheng base.

When they arrived at an open area, Shen Zechuan stopped the car.

Seeing this, Cui Ze asked curiously, "Why did you stop the car? Weren't you in a hurry to get back?"

"We stopped because we're in a hurry to get back. We need to find a faster mode of transportation." Shen Zechuan glanced back at Cui Ze, then urged, "Alright, enough talk, get out of the car!"

After saying that, he unbuckled his seatbelt and got out of the car.

Cui Ze was puzzled, but seeing that Zhou Yang in the passenger seat had also gotten tea, he had no choice but to quickly get out of the car as well.

Just as he turned and pushed the car door shut, he saw Zhou Yang put the car away and then let out the big dog he had seen just two days ago.

Before Cui Ze could even ask a question, the big dog suddenly transformed into a super-sized dog, taller than the small building.

Cui Ze couldn't help but gape and exclaim, "Holy crap! Can a dog really grow this big?"

Shen Zechuan rolled his eyes at him: "You're making a fuss over nothing! Aren't there any mutated animals like this at the Hecheng base?"

Cui Ze scratched his head: "No, there really isn't."

Although there are mutated animals at the Hecheng base, none of them can grow larger, which is why Cui Ze had no idea that there are mutated animals that can change size.

Shen Zechuan: “…”

"Alright, you two hurry up and get on here, we're leaving."

Zhou Yang, who had already climbed onto Pea's back, had just secured the saddle with Little Tiger when he saw the two still dawdling below and couldn't help but call out.

Shen Zechuan and Cui Ze then stopped talking and climbed onto the pea's back.

Once the two of them were up, Zhou Yang pressed Cui Ze down and called for Wandou to head towards the Baijishan base. He then lowered himself as well.

Upon hearing Zhou Yang's command, Pea immediately stood up and then dashed off with a powerful kick.

Before Cui Ze could react, his mouth was filled with air, and the questions he wanted to ask were sealed in his mouth.

Just like on the way there, we used the highway on the way back.

Fortunately, they were fast enough that the strong wind effectively blocked the rising temperature as the sun rose, so the three of them didn't feel hot along the way. On the contrary, they felt a little cold because of the strong wind.

This time, without any pause, the three people and one dog returned to the Baijishan base in just half a day.

When the peas stopped, Cui Ze stared in disbelief at the majestic city walls and the mutated trees that surrounded them.

She didn't even realize that Shen Zechuan, who couldn't stand it anymore, was dragging her down by the collar.

It wasn't until they passed through the checkpoints at the base gates and entered the base, seeing the people busily trying to make a living, that they came to their senses.

This is a base that is completely different from the Hecheng base.

There were no refugees who were barely clothed, nor children who were so hungry that they had to eat dirt. The streets were clean, and there were soldiers on duty and patrolling everywhere. The entire base was orderly and there was no sign of disorder.

The survivors' faces were filled with a desire to survive and a fighting spirit to do so.

Compared to the Hecheng base, this place is simply paradise!

Seeing Cui Ze looking around curiously, Zhou Yang didn't rush to urge him. Instead, he asked Shen Zechuan to call Yan Fei first to let him know that they had returned.

After Shen Zechuan hung up the phone, he took the car out of his spatial storage and turned to Cui Ze, who was still marveling, and said, "Alright, there will be plenty of opportunities to see it later. Let's go home first."

"Okay!" Cui Zegan quickly snapped out of his daze and got into the car.

Back at their apartment building, the three of them took the elevator directly to the 18th floor.

Because they had given prior notice, the metal plate at the elevator entrance on the 18th floor had been removed, and the three of them were able to go up smoothly.

As soon as they stepped out of the elevator, they saw Yu Jing and the others gathered in the corridor. Seeing that Zhou Yang and Shen Zechuan had returned safely, they couldn't help but step forward to welcome them. Yu Jing even held Zhou Yang's hand and kept asking him how he was doing.

The crowd surrounded the two and asked them questions for a while before they noticed the unfamiliar young man standing behind them.

It was only then that Zhou Yang remembered there was Cui Ze, so he introduced him to everyone: "By the way, this is Cui Ze, from Hecheng. His special ability is invisibility. He will also be a member of our team from now on."

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately looked at Cui Ze and scrutinized him, clearly very curious about his ability to become invisible.

Suddenly being stared at by a group of people, Cui Ze felt a surge of nervousness and stammered a greeting: "Ha... hello, um... my name is Cui Ze... I'm 18 years old, and I'm Zhou Ge and Shen Ge's new underling. Hello everyone... haha..."

Upon hearing that he was only 18 years old, Yu Jing's motherly side immediately kicked in. She enthusiastically pulled Cui Ze aside and asked him all sorts of questions, going straight to Cui Ze's family background before the apocalypse and his experiences in the apocalypse.
