Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

“Thank you,”

a team member gratefully said to Su Jin, before he fed the water to Chen Hai, who was on the ground.

Chen Hai seemed to be thirsty too, and after taking a sip, he surprisingly drank all of the remaining water without leaving a drop behind.

Li Haochu was also relieved. He had people put Chen Hai into the military truck, though they bound his hands and feet to prevent him from turning into a zombie and attacking those nearby.

The convoy continued forward, and those survivors who had killed zombies were met with various looks as they got on the vehicle—some envious, some jealous, and others admiring.

After getting on the bus, Deng Shuwei was asked by a woman in front, “Girl, you were really impressive just now. What does it feel like to kill a zombie?”

Deng Shuwei blushed, being asked this while everyone on the bus turned to look at her.

However, she gathered her courage and started talking, “Killing zombies isn’t as scary as I imagined. After killing one, you’re not so afraid anymore. I think those people on that bus must have also killed many zombies to become so capable!”

“Makes sense, girl. Next time we stop, take me with you,”

“Okay, okay, let’s go together,”

Deng Shuwei said gleefully.

Realizing Deng Shuwei was looking in her direction, Fang Jingfu quickly put on a smile and complimented, tilting her head, “Xiao Wei, you’re really amazing. I’m so envious you have a Special Ability.”

The courage that had just been bolstered by Deng Shuwei’s words seemed to diminish in people’s hearts as they heard this. Indeed, the young girl was a Special Ability User. How could they, ordinary people, dare to kill zombies?

“Ah, if only I had a Special Ability,” a man in the vehicle lamented.

“…”

Deng Shuwei bit her lip. She looked at Fang Jingfu, who was still praising her, but she couldn’t feel happy about it at all.

Ah Fu, was she blaming her?

But why? Had she done something wrong?

…

In Su Jin’s vehicle, Liang Wei had gotten to know Mao Qiqi and discovered that despite her young age, she was unusually sensible. However, when he mentioned the survivors on the buses, the little girl’s face showed a look of disdain.

“Too weak, like insects,”

Mao Qiqi spoke without any reserve.

“You mean those survivors?” Liang Wei became interested, hearing this kind of comment for the first time.

“Yes, and you too, you’re quite weak,”

“…”

So why did he even bother asking?

“Qiqi, you need to be polite when speaking,” Huang Yunxiang said, not able to listen anymore and starting to chide her.

“It’s okay, it’s okay; I quite like chatting with Qiqi,”

Liang Wei said, though feeling a bit stung, but still smiling.

Seeing that Liang Wei wasn’t particularly upset, Huang Yunxiang didn’t say anything more, after all, she and Mao Qiqi shared the same sentiments…

“Then why do you still protect me, or even go as far as protecting the weak?” Liang Wei finally asked the question he was interested in.

“Because I used to be weak too. Just because I am weak now doesn’t mean I always will be,”

Mao Qiqi tilted her head and thought for a while before replying, these were lessons learned from Lin Tianzhen and Mao Zhihang.

After hearing this, Su Jin couldn’t help but smile as well. Yes, the weak aren’t always weak, and people can inevitably find themselves stranded on a beach. If giving them a push could let them swim back to the sea, then why not?

As for those who can’t be pushed along, that’s a different story.

Liang Wei gave Mao Qiqi a thumbs up, having faced various people questioning him why he would protect those survivors, and realizing none of them had the clear insight of this young girl before him.

None of Su Jin’s family members were deadweights, after all.

The convoy kept moving forward.

They discovered that on the road they were currently traveling, there were many zombie corpses.

The corpses had evidently had their Crystal Cores removed. Judging by the state of the corpses, the individuals who had dealt with these zombies were undoubtedly a group of formidable Special Ability Users. Most zombies had their heads cleanly severed or pierced with something that left a hole in their skulls.

Was this wound caused by Ice-Element Special Abilities? Lu Hao guessed.

Su Jin also looked seriously out of the window. It did indeed look like wounds caused by Ice Element, otherwise there wouldn’t be nothing at those wounds.

But some zombies had fatal injuries that looked rather horrifying. Their entire heads seemed to have exploded, with brain matter mixed with dark blood splattered all over the wall, the ground…

Could these effects have been caused by some kind of explosive weapon?

Just as Su Jin and the others were puzzled, an explosion suddenly sounded up the road!

Was there really someone with explosive weapons? Lu Hao also heightened his alertness.

Could they be those hidden individuals from the base?

Su Xiangzhe drove the vehicle ahead of the first bus. Understanding this, the bus driver slowed down a little to maintain a safe distance.

Instead of the expected smoke from gunfire, there were three clean-cut Special Ability Users by the roadside, killing zombies with their Special Abilities and long swords.

Su Jin finally understood how the explosion sound was produced. It was one of those three individuals, a Water Element Special Ability User, who created the explosive effect!

One of the men, who wore glasses, flicked a coin-sized water arrow with his finger. The water arrow easily penetrated a zombie’s skull, and then the entire head of the zombie exploded!

Huang Yunxiang, who also had Water Element Special Abilities, was completely astounded.

She had always thought of Water Element Special Abilities as auxiliary, never imagining that they could achieve such an effect.

The trio also noticed the convoy on their side. The man with glasses even waved at their vehicle, then ran over.

Seeing the young man running towards them, Su Xiangzhe stopped the car.

“Hey friends, where are you headed?”

The man with glasses asked as he climbed onto the slightly lowered car window.

“Refuge.”

Lu Hao, sitting in the passenger seat, answered.

“Hey guys, there’s actually a Refuge here!” the man with glasses shouted to the other two behind him.

“A base? Isn’t that just like a refuge, a place where weaklings stay?”

A man with long hair carrying a long sword on his shoulder remarked as he walked over.

“By the way, I wanted to ask, does this base have a boss yet?” the man with glasses asked eagerly.

“Yes.”

Lu Hao was ready to leave; he had previously suspected that these people might be lying in ambush, but it didn’t seem to be the case now.

“Ah, I wanted to play boss for a bit; seems like there’s no chance now,” the man with glasses seemed quite frustrated.

“…”

Huang Yunxiang couldn’t help but want to see Liang Wei’s reaction—the father of the base leader was here, she wondered what Liang Wei must be feeling at the moment.

“No worries, man. What level is that boss’s Special Ability? My buddy here is Level Three Special Ability, just overthrow him,” another young man with yellow-dyed hair comfortingly patted the glasses man’s shoulder as he spoke.

“Let’s go,” Lu Hao said to Su Xiangzhe.

“Friend, aren’t you surprised at all by my Level Three Special Ability?”

The man with glasses, ignoring Lu Hao’s cold face, continued to cling to the car window.

“We are in a hurry.”

Lu Hao felt he had been patient enough, but the three showed no signs of backing off. The one carrying the long sword even sat on the hood of their car.

Zombies were slowly gathering towards them, and the drivers in the cars behind were anxiously waiting, unsure of what the trio up front intended to do.
