Wang Luo was in good spirits, as he had not only acquired a villa but also an Empress of the Night for free. After a brief chat, he decided it was time for bed. He had to continue collecting supplies and hunting zombies the next day.
"You... how can you sleep in my bed?" Zhao Qingxuan asked coyly, seeing Wang Luo settle into her bed. "There are other rooms with beds!"
"That's fine! I don't mind!" Wang Luo replied, preparing to get up and move to another room. "But what if zombies suddenly appear by your bed in the middle of the night? Don't blame me if I can't save you!"
Hearing the word "zombies," Zhao Qingxuan's face turned pale. Those things were truly disgusting and terrifying! "What do you want then?" she asked, her voice trembling. "I... maybe we should sleep together!"
"Are you sure?"
"Sure!"
"I'm not forcing you! You're doing this willingly!"
"Yes, I'm willing!"
"Alright then! Sleep!"
...
Sharing a bed with a stranger she had just met, Zhao Qingxuan did not sleep well. Especially when he began to move closer to her in his sleep, his arms flailing around before finally embracing her. However, Zhao Qingxuan, having accepted reality, did not resist. She knew he was awake. Being held was better than being kicked out and becoming a zombie. Besides, Wang Luo was handsome. Even if he forced himself on her, she would have to accept her fate. Fortunately, he only held her, making no further advances. Could it be her "flatness" that made her unattractive?
The next day, after getting up and washing up, Wang Luo asked, "Can you cook breakfast?"
"No!" Zhao Qingxuan shook her head. "But I should have some food left at home that can last a few days!" She had been subsisting on the fruits and bread she had stored.
Wang Luo sighed, thinking he needed to find a cook. He already had a potential candidate in mind: a woman he had once encountered. He wondered where she was now. Since he had no choice, he had to cook himself. His new home still had some supplies: fruits, dairy products, and meat. The refrigerator still had some cooling, so the meat was still fresh. Milk, fried eggs, fried steak, and some fruit would be enough for a simple meal, but he needed to eat heartily. He still had to collect supplies and energy crystal cores later.
"By the way, the day before yesterday, did you feel anything unusual in your body?" Wang Luo asked during the meal.
"Yes, I felt a warm current spread through my body, and my strength increased significantly!" Zhao Qingxuan paused while eating her steak. "Am I going to turn into a zombie too?"
"Why do you say that?" Wang Luo asked, looking at her strangely. "My whole body turned very, very black, blacker than those disgusting darkies, so black it was glowing!"
*Pfft!* The milk Wang Luo was drinking almost sprayed out. "Black enough to glow..." It's fine, as long as she returns to normal! *Bah!* What am I thinking! That's an SSS-grade superpower! Something so many people dream of, and she's so disgusted by it! Is there any justice? Any law?
"Don't worry, your superpower has awakened!"
"Superpower? What's that?"
"Well... you can think of it as a kind of extraordinary power! It's our capital for survival in this apocalypse!"
"Extraordinary power? Will I become Superman? Or Ultraman?"
"Uh! Explore that power within you diligently, and you'll be more powerful than them in the future!"
Zhao Qingxuan breathed a sigh of relief. She had thought something was wrong with her body.
"Have you awakened your superpower?" she asked.
As soon as Zhao Qingxuan finished speaking, a small, azure tornado appeared around Wang Luo, spinning with him at the center. An S-grade wind superpower! "It's finally awakened!" This was about the same time as in his previous life. However, with the awakening of the divine-grade Azure Dragon superpower before this, the S-grade superpower could no longer enhance his physical strength!
"But... with the experience from my previous life, I seem to be able to use a supernatural technique now!" Wang Luo extended his palm. Azure light instantly enveloped his hand, releasing gusts of wind like sharp gears around it. A D-grade supernatural technique, Palm Blade!
"Is that your superpower?" Zhao Qingxuan asked, looking at Wang Luo's palm in surprise. She then quickly extended her own fair hand, but no matter how hard she tried, nothing appeared, leaving her flushed with exertion. "Why can you use a superpower right after awakening? I've been awake for two days and still can't!" Zhao Qingxuan was puzzled.
"Because I'm handsome! Handsome people naturally get priority!"
Zhao Qingxuan pouted. She was also very pretty! Although her chest was a bit small, there was still room for development! Besides, she was confident in her looks!
"Can you kill zombies?" Zhao Qingxuan suddenly asked.
"With this handsome face, of course, I can kill zombies!"
"Can you teach me?"
"You want to kill zombies?"
"I want to go out and find my parents!" Zhao Qingxuan said in a low voice. "They went out to visit someone around 11 a.m. the day before yesterday and haven't returned!"
Wang Luo shook his head. "I advise you to give up. They've probably turned into zombies long ago!"
"Can't you stop provoking me?" "Maybe they survived and are just trapped somewhere!"
"Fine, whatever makes you happy. But Anluo City is so big, do you know where they are? How will you find them?" Wang Luo asked, looking at Zhao Qingxuan's reddening eyes. However, he had no intention of accompanying her on her search for her parents. Even with his divine-grade superpower awakened, being surrounded by dozens of zombies would still be very dangerous!
"They went to Jingyuan Hotel!"
"Jingyuan Hotel?" Wang Luo was startled and quickly asked, "Is there a horse farm near there?"
"Not just a horse farm, there's also a golf course!" Wang Luo's eyes lit up. In his previous life, the "Horse King," one of the mutant beasts, seemed to have originated from that horse farm. Humans had awakened ones, and so did animals! However, awakened animals were called mutant beasts. And the "Horse King" was among the cream of the crop of mutant beasts! In his previous life, the five supreme powerhouses of Longxi Province were "Empress of the Night" Zhao Qingxuan, "Butcher" Zhou Yiming, "Storm King" Yang Chufeng, "Ice Queen" Zhou Leng, and "Poison King" Yang Shuo. Among the mutant beasts, there were also three supreme powerhouses: "Horse King!" "Kung Fu Bao!" and "Mantis King!" Each of them had awakened SSS-grade superpowers and possessed immense strength. Although it seemed like a lot, it wasn't much for the entire Longxi Province. Of course, these were the ones in the open. Wang Luo didn't know how many were hiding in the shadows, developing in secret! But there definitely wouldn't be many, given that they were SSS-grade. Among the mutant beasts, the "Horse King" and "Kung Fu Bao" both came from Anluo City. And Anluo City only had one horse farm near Jingyuan Hotel and only one zoo. "This means the approximate locations of the Horse King and Kung Fu Bao have been determined. I just don't know if they've wandered off elsewhere!" Wang Luo began to plan in his mind. Although he didn't want to establish a faction, it didn't mean he wanted to live alone. Besides, riding an SSS-grade mutant beast would be very imposing, right? How stylish!
