"What? The wetland villa was completely occupied by zombies?"
Gu Bei and Xiao Ruobing both turned pale, their hearts plumting.
"Yes, we originally planned to stay there for a while, since it had mountains, water, and plenty of houses, with fewer zombies!"
A Fire-elent Superpower User thought back to his experiences half a month ago, his expression looking rather grim.
With lingering fear, he said, "But we overlooked one thing. Although there were fewer zombies and the environnt was pleasant, there were a lot of wild animals and plants. And these suddenly mutated!"
Pets like cats and dogs grew bigger, and the harmless flowers and plants turned into man-eating monsters.
More ironically, Southern City villa was a rich area, and those wealthy people always had so strange hobbies.
One of the wealthy hoowners had raised a captive-bred crocodile in his yard.
After the apocalypse struck, this already ferocious animal mutated into a man-eating monster.
An entire family was devoured alive by the mutated crocodile.
The villa area was also infested with wetland-specific mosquitoes, which beca terrifying after mutating.
So of them carried the Zombie Virus directly, and a re bite could cause a person to undergo Corpse Transformation!
"We who have Superpowers escaped with our lives narrowly!"
The Fire-elent Superpower User had a scared look on his face, "And those ordinary people were really pitiful~~~"
He didn’t continue, but Gu Bei and Xiao Ruobing understood the implication.
Even a combat-powerful Fire-elent Superpower User like him had nearly not escaped; it was likely that Gu and Xiao’s parents were also—
"I advise you not to go to Southern City, it has beco a paradise for monsters!"
The Fire-elent Superpower User saw the grieving yet stubborn look on Gu Bei’s and Xiao Ruobing’s faces and kindly advised.
"All the survivors from the city have escaped. We are probably the last batch. The military’s survivor base is also relocating."
"I heard that before this official base moves, they plan to blow up several of the hardest-hit areas in the city!"
"And Southern City villa district is one of them. No way around it, the mutated animals and plants there are too terrifying!"
As if to prove the Fire-elent Superpower User’s words, right then, a booming explosion sounded in the distance.
Thump!
Thump!!
Gu Bei and Xiao Ruobing knelt down together, wailing in despair toward the direction of Southern City.
Seeing the heart-wrenching appearance of the two, the Fire-elent Superpower User, though sowhat sympathetic, appeared indifferent to it.
Alas, the apocalypse brings too much separation, death, and destruction.
They themselves had mostly undergone life-and-death hardships.
Cry it out, vent all you want, dry your tears, and then continue to strive to survive. That’s the only way to honor the departed loved ones.
"Gu Bei, I only have you left!" Xiao Ruobing cried hoarsely, hugging Gu Bei and murmuring sadly.
Gu Bei: ...I, I, oh right, I still have an older brother!
Gu Bei’s eyes, saddened by the potential loss of his parents, suddenly sparked with so brightness.
And Xiao Ruobing suddenly rembered they still had a relative they could turn to, "Brother Nan? Right, let’s go find Brother Nan!"
Gu Nan was known as a genius in their circle.
In his twenties, he had earned a Ph.D., even establishing his own laboratory.
Moreover, most importantly, Gu Nan’s laboratory was in nearby D City.
A straight-line distance of just over a hundred kiloters; under normal circumstances, it would just take an hour or two by car.
In the apocalypse, it might take ten days to half a month.
"Great!"
Gu Bei also wanted to find his older brother, possibly his only remaining family mber.
"You guys are going to D City? What a coincidence, we’re going too!"
The Fire-elent Superpower User smiled and said, "You must have heard. The Hope Base in D City, Dr. Gu Nan, has developed the Zombie Virus dicine!"
"Although it’s still in clinical trials, I hear the effects are very promising!"
"Wow, that’s the Zombie Virus Preparation! If you get injected with this dicine, you won’t have to fear infection even if you’re scratched or bitten by zombies!"
"Ah, it’s just that the price is quite steep, no less than a hundred Level 1 Crystal Cores."
The Fire-elent Superpower User ntioned, sowhat pained.
However, what caught Gu Bei’s and Xiao Ruobing’s attention was: "Dr. Gu Nan?"
The two exclaid in unison.
"Yeah, that’s Dr. Gu Nan. Although so people slander him saying he uses Superpower Users for experints, producing Zombie Virus dicine, that’s a deed that benefits all humanity."
