Leng Yebai was very diligent at Bai Xiqin’s ho. His expression was always cold, but he never slacked off when it ca to housework.
Just like in his previous life, Leng Yebai awakened his Thunder and Ice Abilities. Before the apocalypse arrived, he was already at the First Rank Superpower User level.
Superpower Users have ranks like First Rank, Second Rank, Third Rank, etc. A First Rank Superpower User can skillfully unleash their superpower, and it has considerable destructive power.
Before the energy surge hit, those who could reach the First Rank were very few.
Therefore, Leng Yebai’s status was firmly sixth in the Bai Family!
Every day, the family was busy with superpower training, martial arts, and jogging.
Ti passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, Leng Yebai had been freeloading off Bai Xiqin’s family for over a month.
At this point, there were only five days left until the apocalypse.
Superpower energy in the air was becoming increasingly dense, just a step away from reaching a critical point and collapsing entirely.
Occasionally, so bloody videos would get posted online, only to be quickly censored.
Those bloody videos were typically similar.
Either animals would suddenly go mad and attack their owners or soone would have a rabies-like episode.
Even so, no one guessed that the apocalypse would arrive in five days.
The Bai Family decided to do what they could within their ans.
"Hackers charge a lot. Let do it instead!" Leng Yebai said calmly, "I studied programming and can dominate the network for a minute."
"Great! The family just happens to be out of money!"
Bai Anhai sat on the sofa with a smile, taking a sip of tea.
Seeing death and not trying to save might always bring a sense of guilt to one’s heart.
But you cannot put yourself in danger either.
The initial idea was to hire hackers to attack the network and inform everyone that the apocalypse was coming.
Sure, many people wouldn’t believe it.
But so would, and they would be prepared.
Even if only one person believes, their efforts wouldn’t have been in vain.
"I took a three-month leave. My teachers and classmates thought I had a terminal illness and even organized a donation. Although it wasn’t much, it was all their pocket money." Bai Yifan said sadly, holding a bunch of cash, "Will they get infected?"
The cash consisted of five and ten yuan notes, full of classmates’ love and care.
Bai Yifan also knew he couldn’t blatantly tell his classmates about the coming apocalypse, but doing nothing felt wrong.
"Do your classmates like gaming?"
Bai Xiqin suddenly asked.
"Yes!" Bai Yifan nodded, "We often play online gas together at night!"
If soone isn’t good at studying, you can’t entirely bla the teacher.
"Then that’s it!" Bai Xiqin raised an eyebrow at Bai Yifan, "Invite them to play online at ho. That way, they’ll be at ho!"
"Yeah!" Bai Yifan’s eyes shone brightly but soon dimd again, "But so girls don’t play gas, and not all the boys might co online to play."
"I got it!" Bai Yifan had a sudden idea, "I’ll say I want to play one last ga before I die; they’ll definitely agree!"
After all, everyone thought he had a terminal illness.
Who would refuse a dying wish?
"Wait, what if so classmates don’t have a computer at ho?" Bai Xiqin asked.
Without a computer, going to a cyber café would pose a higher risk of infection.
Bai Yifan looked at Bai Anhai. "Dear Father, could you sponsor a few thousand for future society mbers to buy computers?"
"Our whole family is living off your grandparents’ pension. We’re broke!"
Bai Anhai spread his hands with a helpless expression.
As a lawyer, he exploited many legal loopholes.
He’s sold their house to multiple buyers.
If the apocalypse doesn’t co, he’d rot in jail!
Bai Yifan looked at Leng Yebai.
"The only possession I have is this." Leng Yebai calmly pointed at a second-hand bike in the living room corner.
Bai Yifan sighed deeply, starting to ponder with his phone. How could he get computers for those classmates lacking one at ho?
Luckily, due to a howork assignnt needing computer operations, the teacher had previously noted which students didn’t have computers.
But the money...
At night.
Bai Yifan secretly opened his eyes, glanced at the sleeping Leng Yebai, stealthily slipped on his slippers, and went to the balcony.
Very carefully closing the curtains, Bai Yifan held his phone, his face full of struggles.
Does a man’s dignity matter or not?
Ultimately, friendship won over dignity.
Bai Yifan shakily opened a certain QQ number he found online and sent a ssage.
’Fruit Loans, what’s the maximum loan amount available?’
...
The next day, Bai Yifan appeared with dark circles under his eyes, but his eyes glead brightly.
With four days left until the apocalypse, he purchased several computers online and had them sent directly to classmates who didn’t have one.
The sender: Santa Claus.
Three days later.
Bai Yifan posted a "will" in the class group chat, wanting to play an online ga with all classmates.
The "will" also requested that classmates join from their hos since Bai Yifan wanted to feel the actual distance between him and his classmates one last ti.
Given classmate Bai Yifan’s imminent "death," no one refused his request.
So even wanted to co visit Bai Yifan, hoping to see him one last ti.
But Bai Yifan said he wanted to host a farewell party in a week, so they shouldn’t co early.
Who would refuse a classmate with a terminal illness?
Therefore, everyone agreed.
It was one day before the apocalypse.
Leng Yebai calmly held a laptop, his long fingers swiftly tapping the keyboard, creating a clattering sound in the living room.
At 7:30 PM, all connected computers, phones, and televisions switched to a single screen.
It showed frenzied scenes of animals and humans worldwide, with large red text on top.
"The apocalypse arrives tomorrow. Please stay inside and keep doors closed."
A minute later, Leng Yebai quickly logged out, erased his location data, and shut down his computer.
Legend concealed and rit unproclaid.
Simultaneously, the images and words posted by Leng Yebai spread madly online, prompting scenes of frantic food stockpiling across various locations.
So still didn’t believe it.
Assuming it was rely a hacker terror threat.
Two hours later, the internet returned to tranquility.
Bai Xiqin watched the cleaned-up online world and sighed.
Yes, most people thought that with firearms, what was there to fear from zombies?
Though infections had appeared, they had either been shot or contained.
Currently, the situation was easily manageable.
However, when the energy surge arrives, no one will escape that baptism of energy.
Even Earth’s magnetic field would alter, disabling electronic devices.
At that mont, firearms alone wouldn’t suffice.
Humans, animals, plants, zombies—they’d rely not just on wit but on energy to compete for the top of the Pyramid.
Ding-dong~
Bai Xiqin’s phone chid.
Zhang Yiming: Xiao Niu, have you finished your thesis? The defense is about to start!
