Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

“Oh my god, there’s so many!”

Lin Xiuyuan felt his scalp tingle.

Huang Yunxiang, “Calling me won’t help, better run, son!”

The others weren’t in much better shape; Su Jin made a split decision, saying, “Get in the car first!”

After everyone got in the car, Su Xiangzhe quickly started the vehicle, and Lin Cheng closely followed behind.

However, the zombie rat horde was relentlessly pursuing them. Looking at the road ahead, Su Jin frowned; if they led these zombie rats to the City West area, that would be bad.

“If my disciple were here, one blast of his fire, and all the rats outside would be turned to ash,” Nie Qing’s voice came through the walkie-talkie.

“I think you’re deliberately belittling me,”

Lu Guanhai was displeased after all, he too was a Fire Element Ability User.

Nie Qing’s words sparked an idea in Su Jin’s mind. With the zombie rats still fiercely chasing them, perhaps they really could use fire to attack!

Su Jin took over the walkie-talkie, “Uncle, drive your car beside ours, don’t fall behind. Dad! Later, when I tell you to release fire out the window, start doing it, okay?”

Even though they didn’t understand Su Jin’s plan, in this critical moment, Lin Cheng and Lu Guanhai didn’t have time to ask questions and immediately agreed.

Once the two cars were side by side, Su Jin opened the sunroof on top of the car, climbed up using vines, and steadied herself, with Lin Xiuyuan and Huang Yunxiang in the neighboring car watching as she held on firmly to the car roof with vines, and then a large barrel appeared in her hands.

What is that?

Gasoline?!

“I get it now, Su Jin wants to use fire and gasoline!” Lin Xiuyuan shouted loudly.

“What is that girl holding in her hand?” Nie Qing asked, puzzled.

“That’s gasoline, the kind that accelerates burning,”

Lin Xiuyuan realized that Nie Qing might not know the use of gasoline, but he would understand after witnessing it soon.

One could only see Su Jin pouring the gasoline from the barrel onto the path, then the second and third barrels.

The dense mass of zombie rats ran over the gasoline-soaked road, and the smell of gasoline was overwhelming.

“Light the fire!”

Su Jin shouted to the car beside her.

Lu Guanhai, who had been ready, mustered all his strength to produce two fireballs and hurled them to the ground.

With a boom, the entire path behind them turned into a sea of flames in the eyes of onlookers!

The sharp, agonizing screams of the zombie rats came from behind, yet Su Jin felt a great sense of satisfaction; she felt as if she had experienced the joy of a Fire Element Ability User.

Both vehicles didn’t stop, and no more zombie rats chased after them.

“Sister Xiao Jin, you’re so smart,”

Mao Qiqi looked at Su Jin with admiration, amazed that Sister Xiao Jin had managed to kill so many zombie rats with just a few barrels of gasoline.

“That’s why I say, when dealing with brainless creatures, you need to think more and not just fight head-on,” Su Jin said with a smile.

Just like in her previous life, she knew many ordinary people without Special Abilities could kill lots of zombies using traps, weapons, and other tools. Humanity really has great potential.

…

Meanwhile, in the Refuge at S City, neither Liang Wei nor Liang Jiuhui had expected Lu Hao to visit today.

After figuring out the reason, both of them were quite surprised. In this apocalyptic world where everyone was short of clothing and food, the person Lu Hao brought actually wanted to open a store?

The idea was too novel.

“I am a Space Element Ability User, and I’ve collected a lot of supplies before in H City and on the way here,” Guo Yang had prepared what to say.

“Is your space very big?” Liang Jiuhui asked out of pure curiosity.

“Not very big, just about the size of a school’s sports field, the 800-meter kind.”

Without blushing or skipping a beat, Guo Yang imitated Su Jin’s manner of speaking and tone, because that was how Su Jin had described it to him.

Xue Wanyi wiped his face with a big hand. He wanted to laugh but had to hold it back; the space he mentioned was clearly Su Jin’s, wasn’t it?

Hearing this, people like Liang Wei gasped in astonishment.

That large?!

They knew that some Space Element Ability Users in their team had spaces no bigger than a bathroom.

What did the size of a school’s sports field imply?!

That was unbelievably incredible!

Guo Yang suppressed his guilty conscience. He comforted himself that he said it with the intention of protecting Su Jin’s space and not out of a desire to lie. Yikes!

“You can pick any house in the villa district,” Liang Wei said generously with a wave of his hand, and agreed.

Opening a store was great, as it also suggested that Su Jin, Lu Hao, and their people might develop their base in S City for the long term. When they learned these people had come from H City, there were concerns they might leave someday.

If the base had strong figures in place, they could feel more at ease. Moreover, they could tell that Su Jin and her group had no interest in power; otherwise, they wouldn’t have saved them last time.

Guo Yang hadn’t expected things to be resolved so smoothly. However, Liang Wei wanted to keep them for a discussion about the base.

“What do you think is our biggest problem right now?”

Liang Wei wanted to hear Lu Hao’s opinion.

Lu Hao thought for a moment and answered, “You protect the survivors too well.”

Although he had only visited the refuge twice, he could see that Liang Wei and the others provided excellent protection, offering food and lodging unconditionally. Had it been before the apocalypse, this would have been faultless, but in these times, such protection only made them lose their fighting spirit and even come to expect such care as a given.

Liang Wei sighed. He and Liang Jiuhui had indeed been worried about this recently. Initially, his policies purely aimed at protecting the citizens and attracting more survivors to come here, but now it seemed the policies needed to change. Moreover, the future construction of the base would also require these people’s involvement.

While they were discussing, someone knocked on the door and reported from outside.

Could it be an emergency?

The one who entered was Peng Qi, a young soldier in uniform, who was supposed to report loudly and clearly but hesitated, not knowing what to say.

“Peng Qi, go ahead and speak,”

There was no impatience in Liang Jiuhui’s voice. If there was nothing important, Peng Qi wouldn’t knock on the door for no reason. And his hesitation likely meant it wasn’t a significant issue.

“Report, there are some foreign visitors outside who want to see Mayor Liang!”

Peng Qi finally spoke up. He actually didn’t want to disturb Mayor Liang and the others, but those foreigners were too persistent.

“Foreign visitors? Haha.”

Liang Jiuhui laughed coldly and immediately instructed Peng Qi to bring them in.

S City was an open city even before the apocalypse due to its developed economy and foreign trade, which attracted people from all over the world. Even after the apocalypse, there were many foreign survivors.

However, Liang Jiuhui’s impressions of these ‘foreign friends’ had plummeted recently, and now that they had come knocking, he was curious to see what they intended to do.
