Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

According to the plan of Su Jin and others, while Su Jin and two others went to the research institute for the rescue, Nie Qing and Mao Qiqi went to Cen Chu’s team’s residence to set up a Stealth Formation.

Nie Qing looked around and felt that the rooftop of the third floor was most suitable, as it was open and no one came by, so he asked Qiqi to wait downstairs. Unexpectedly, after he had finished setting up the formation, Qiqi was nowhere to be found.

Remembering the small blue dot that Mao Qiqi had been talking about these past few days, as well as the various strange things they had seen at this base, Nie Qing became somewhat restless. He notified Cen Chu and then went out along the dark streets to look for Mao Qiqi.

Meanwhile, Lu Hao, who had hidden himself in the Space, also got to know about Mao Qiqi’s situation at first instance.

Looking at the anxious family, Lu Hao comforted, “I believe in Qiqi. Since she came in to tell everyone before she left, she must have been confident.”

“Yes, we know that too, we just hope nothing happens to her.”

Lin Tianzhen’s eyes reddened with worry, and Mao Zhihang felt the same. This girl, why is her curiosity so strong?

“Tianzhen, I also believe in Qiqi, and besides, her skills are not bad at all. Why don’t you go outside and wait? It feels longer worrying here. I will come out immediately to tell you any news,”

Lin Tianhui suggested. A minute outside was like ten minutes here, and for the couple who were extremely worried about their daughter, Lin Tianhui felt this place truly made the days stretch endlessly, although they were all worried about Qiqi, parents would worry even more.

Mao Zhihang thought for a moment, then decisively took Lin Tianzhen out of the Space to wait for news about their daughter outside, perhaps that would be easier to bear.

…

Mao Qiqi looked at the blue dot flashing constantly on her map; she seemed to hear a voice calling for help…

The blue dot was not far from her location, driven by a strong curiosity, she notified Cen Chu and then went out.

Although the road outside was very dark, because of her Mental Element Ability, she could sense everything around her even with her eyes closed, so she wasn’t scared at all.

Finally, she arrived in front of an old house. The map showed that the small blue dot was just behind this courtyard wall.

Lian Jiyue looked incredulously at Xu Ping, who daily reminded him to sleep early, rise early, and eat well.

What was mom doing?

What was she holding in her hand?

Why was she pouring it into his cup?

“Mom? What are you doing!?”

Lian Jiyue snatched the small bottle from her hands and asked.

Xu Ping clearly hadn’t expected Lian Jiyue to walk into the kitchen, a place that she could call her own domain, where Lian Jiyue completely trusted her, never checking on anything.

Today, she was just humming a tune as usual, adding medicine to the milk she made for Lian Jiyue, although the dosage seemed to be ten times more than usual, she didn’t mind it at all.

“Young Master, I… Madam said this medicine could help you sleep,” Xu Ping said, somewhat frightened by Lian Jiyue’s bloodshot eyes staring at her.

“Madam? Help me sleep? She probably wants me to sleep forever.”

Why? Why even Xu Ping, who had always taken care of him…

Lian Jiyue felt as if he had fallen into the coldest ice cellar at that moment, and a headache began to throb.

He wanted to continue speaking, but at that moment, he could only crouch on the ground, mouth gaping, unable to make a sound.

It hurt so much!!

Lian Jiyue held his head, curling up in intense pain on the ground like a shrimp.

His head felt like it was about to split open, and as if many people were brutally drilling into it.

He began to roll around on the ground…

Who will save him?!

It really hurt so much!

Seeing Lian Jiyue like this, Xu Ping actually felt relieved.

She squatted down and said, “Of course it’s not medicine to calm your nerves. I heard that it’s extracted from a Zombie Crystal Nucleus. You’ve only been drinking it for a month, and each time I only added such a tiny drop.”

As she spoke, Xu Ping gestured with her hand in front of Lian Jiyue.

Lian Jiyue looked at her in pain, his blood-filled eyes seemingly asking why.

“Do you want to know why?”

Xu Ping laughed after speaking and continued, “Because I have a son, he’s so young, yet I am supposed to leave him to nurse you, why should I? Thankfully, the lady found me years ago, as long as I could stay by your side long-term, my son would enjoy the same treatment as you, and now, he’s even the captain of our base’s security team!”

Seeing the person she had served day and night as if they were an ancestor transformed into this state, a bizarre sense of revenge surged in Xu Ping’s heart, she had never even served her own son like this!

This person, why should he?

“You think I don’t have a son? Saying you would provide for my old age? I have my own son to take care of me!”

Lian Jiyue wanted her to shut up, wanted her to stop talking, but at that moment, he couldn’t make any sound at all.

Xu Ping, abandoning her usual honest and submissive demeanor, seemed to want to pour out all the words that had been suppressed in her heart for many years.

So, it was all fake from the beginning?

A tear slid from the corner of the eye of the person on the ground.

Stop talking, stop talking.

Please, don’t say anymore…

It was as if a string inside him suddenly snapped, Lian Jiyue clutching his head didn’t notice, his fingernails suddenly turned into long gray claws.

His mind and heart were filled with rage at this moment, and this rage effectively suppressed the pain in his head.

The sharp claws suddenly struck out at Xu Ping!

Xu Ping, horrified, watched as Lian Jiyue’s complexion turned gray.

Zombie?!

“Save, me…”

Xu Ping never imagined Lian Jiyue could still attack her, the lady had said that the medicine would only render someone unable to speak, followed by such severe headaches that they’d lose the ability to move!

Why could Lian Jiyue still stand up? Still grasp her throat?!

Pfft!

The grey-faced Lian Jiyue plunged his whole claw into Xu Ping’s neck!

And this scene was precisely witnessed by Mao Qiqi standing outside the window.

Mao Qiqi stared blankly at the scene inside the window.

Is this a human or a zombie?

Just now she heard someone shouting something, he seemed to be in pain and very upset, but the voice only echoed in her mind, not through her ears.

To confirm this strange reaction, she found a slightly ajar small door next to the courtyard, and after entering through it, the scene in the back kitchen became fully visible.

The small blue dot on her map, that was the man inside the window.

The voice she heard in her mind also came from that man inside the window.

After killing Xu Ping, the feeling of rage inside him disappeared, only to be replaced by bursts of pain in his head.

He leaned against the wall weakly, holding his head, wanting to slam it into the wall.

It hurts! Really, really hurts!

Who will help him?

You…

Are you okay?

Suddenly, a voice reached his brain.

Subsequently, he saw the little girl standing outside the window.

She could hear him talk?

Lian Jiyue, as if ignoring the pain, directly smashed through the glass window and leaped out.

He looked at the little girl in front of him, although he was still in pain, it was no longer as unbearable as before.

The two, one tall and one short, stared at each other across the boundary wall, then suddenly, Lian Jiyue scooped up Mao Qiqi and ran towards the direction outside the base!
