Surviving in Apocalypse with Children

Wen Xiaoxiao thought to herself. If she wasn’t wrong, Pei Xi should be a power-type ability user.

 

In Wen Xiaoxiao’s eyes, Pei Xi seemed a bit thin, with strength only slightly greater than that of a girl.

 

A hammer blow could hardly inflict much damage on the increasingly thick skin of the zombies.

 

After dealing with the zombies, Wen Xiaoxiao was panting. On the other hand, although Xi didn’t kill many zombies, he didn’t feel tired aside from having a slightly flushed face.

 

Meng Qing felt like his arms were about to become useless, and the hand holding the small hammer trembled.

 

With a “clang,” the small hammer slipped from Meng Qing’s hand and fell onto the zombie’s body, producing a crisp sound.

 

Qi Yan pursed his lips and looked at Meng Qing with a hint of disdain.

 

Jiang Fuci wasn’t much kinder, laughing and taunting him, “You little weakling.”

 

Feeling wronged, Meng Qing looked at the two miserably. He then raised his baby-faced face and turned to look at Bo Yiliang, seeking comfort from him.

 

However, after looking into him, Bo Yiliang responded with a smile that is not a smile. He was neither sympathetic nor mocking.

 

Feeling even more wronged, Meng Qing squatted on the ground. Using the small hammer that fell on the zombie’s body, he drew a few circles on the not-so-clean ground to express his curses.

 

After a short break, Bo Yiliang suggested, “Let’s quickly dig for crystal cores! After that, we will return to the RV for a meal.”

 

Their stomachs were singing the empty-city strategy. Even if they were starving, the six of them started digging crystal cores from the zombies lying on the ground.

 

The sky was already bright, but there was no rising sun. The sky was murky, and the air carried a foul stench.

 

Perhaps due to days of fighting zombies, they weren’t as repulsed by the smell as before.

 

After digging out the crystal cores, they returned to the RV to freshen up and then had a meal.

Meanwhile, on the other side, Bai Xiaolian was furious. She silently cursed Wen Xiaoxiao numerous times in her heart.

 

Bai Xiaolian’s white dress had turned into a black one. It was stained with a few drops of zombie blood, emitting a foul odor. Bai Xiaolian felt nauseated and wanted to immediately take off her clothes and put on new ones.

 

Unfortunately, Bai Xiaolian had only this one piece of clothing. She looked at Bai Chi, her eyes carrying a grudge.

 

But she still coquettishly shouted, “Brother Chi, why hasn’t anyone come to find you yet?”

 

Bai Chi’s current mood is extremely bad. He hadn’t eaten anything for almost two days, and his stomach was growling loudly.

 

Hearing Bai Xiaolian’s voice, Bai Chi glanced at her with a touch of disdain.

 

He was no longer as warm towards her as before, and there was even a hint of disgust.

 

Bai Chi’s feelings for Bai Xiaolian had completely changed. Now, looking at her, he felt an inexplicable anger.

 

If not for her, maybe he could have gotten in Wen Xiaoxiao’s car and left this miserable place.

 

That’s how people are, selfish and heartless.

 

Bai Xiaolian naturally felt Bai Chi’s dislike for her. Her eyes turned slightly red, and she looked like she was about to cry. Looking at Bai Chi, she said, “Brother Chi, do you hate Lian’er?”

 

Bai Xiaolian habitually used the same tricks as before.

 

Pretend to be pitiful and weak.

 

Bai Xiaolian and Bai Chi being together was the result of her using some tricks.

 

Being with Bai Chi was also because she liked his family background.

 

Before, she and Wen Xiaoxiao were in the same school. Out of jealousy and fear that Bai Chi might be interested in Wen Xiaoxiao, she schemed to have the school expel Wen Xiaoxiao.

 

After Wen Xiaoxiao was expelled, Bai Xiaolian spread malicious rumors about her in front of other classmates, which completely tarnished Wen Xiaoxiao’s reputation.

 

Once, she overheard her mother saying that Wen Xiaoxiao’s parents were killed in a car accident and thought it served her right.

 

She felt no guilt for the deaths of Wen Xiaoxiao’s parents because her father’s car hit them.

 

Coming from a nouveau riche family, she appeared wealthy in front of the poor but was looked down upon by the rich second generation.

 

For them, it was not enough.

 

Upon learning that her family had compensated Wen Xiaoxiao with ten million, she felt uncomfortable. So she began to get close to Wen Xiaoxiao with the intention of snatching away her money and properties. However, Wen Xiaoxiao never gave her a chance to get close at all, so she hated Wen Xiaoxiao even more.

 

Although Bai Xiaolian appeared soft and weak on the surface, she felt extremely unwilling inside. She still envied Wen Xiaoxiao.

 

Her jealousy only intensified after learning that she had a handsome man by her side.

 

Bai Chi was unaware of Bai Xiaolian’s complex thoughts. Seeing her like this, he started to feel pity in his heart, experiencing a sense of superiority as someone needed him.

 

All the previous dissatisfaction and disgust toward Bai Xiaolian were cast aside.

 

–

 

“What? You’re saying I have an ability too?” Pei Xi exclaimed in disbelief after hearing Wen Xiaoxiao’s words.

 

His cheeks turned particularly red due to excitement.

 

“Yeah!” Wen Xiaoxiao looked at the excited young boy in front of her and felt a bit amused inside. Patiently, she explained, “I noticed your strength seems to be so strong. A light blow of the hammer, and zombies fall. So I suspect you are a power-type ability user.”

 

Everyone’s gaze turned to Pei Xi. More unexpectedly, this young boy was a power-type ability user.

 

Although not as good as users with abilities like lightning, mental powers, or fire control, power-type abilities were excellent for ordinary people.

 

To confirm whether Pei Xi was truly a power-type ability user, Wen Xiaoxiao took him to a warehouse where car oil was stored.

 

The car oil probablu weighed several hundred kilograms, something an ordinary person couldn’t move.

 

Pei Xi felt a bit anxious, scared, excited, and had other emotions swirling in his heart.

 

Under the watchful eyes of Wen Xiaoxiao, Bo Yiliang, Qi Yan, Jiang Fuci, Meng Qing, and others, Pei Xi effortlessly lifted several hundred kilograms of car oil.

 

Pei Xi realized that he was indeed a power-type ability user. Feeling both happy and eager to become stronger, he returned to the sofa with the others.

 

A wide smile appeared on Pei Xi’s face. This is the first time anyone has seen him smile like this.
