Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse-Chapter 646: Changes in Hometown

By nine o’clock, Su Jin had brought Qiqi out of the space, and the little girl had already conscientiously changed into a set of light sportswear, appearing spirited in front of everyone.

"There seem to be so many zombies here,"

Qiqi said, leaning against the car window. The face of a zombie that had suddenly appeared outside the window seemed to be completely ignored by her.

"Qiqi, be careful here. I’ve heard that there are zombie nests everywhere,"

Lu Hao reminded her. Since Lian Jiyue wasn’t with them this time, they had to ensure Qiqi’s safety as well. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Qiqi nodded excitedly. To return home and kill zombies, who knew if she would encounter anyone she used to know?

She remembered when they had left H city before, the roads were almost completely blocked by the escaping cars. But now, though there were still cars on both sides of the road, a path wide enough for two vehicles had been cleared in the middle.

Looking at the cars on both sides of the road, almost all of their fuel caps had been opened, probably taken by people who had passed by for the gasoline inside.

Some of the cars were rusty, the road and the car’s sides littered with shattered glass fragments, and a large area of cars had been burned black. The dried bloodstains also overlapped with the scorched marks on the ground.

Many zombies stood quietly in the shadows by the roadside. The minibus that had not seen people or vehicles pass by for a long time quickly attracted all their attention.

Roar!

After the first roar, more zombies awoke. The quiet road suddenly boiled with activity, countless zombies emerging from the shadows and moving towards the direction of the minibus.

"Tsk tsk tsk, the locals have all come out to greet us,"

Lin Xiuyuan’s words made the initially tense family relax a bit.

"How can this child speak like that? How will we be able to act later?"

Although Huang Yunxiang chided Lin Xiuyuan, she was completely unsentimental when it came to killing zombies.

No matter where the zombies were from, all zombies under the heavens were equally black.

Although Huang Yunxiang always envied those Water Element Ability Users who had found unique paths, her own Water Element Ability had grown quite strong. Her Level Four Water Element Ability had already produced effects that were intangible yet surpassed the tangible.

She even directly picked a Level Five Water Element Mutated Zombie to fight against.

The Level Five Water Element Zombie conjured more than ten water spikes against Huang Yunxiang, all of which were blocked by a water screen. The water screen even aggressively absorbed the water spikes from the Water Element Zombie, turning them into a Water Dragon that dashed towards the Water Element Zombie.

Su Jin, as usual, was on the bus using her Wood Element Ability to ensure the safety of her family. While Huang Yunxiang fought the Water Element Zombie, other zombies that swarmed around were twisted up by a vine, and the next second, the heads of the zombies were chopped off by her family using their various Special Abilities.

Lin Tianhui, who had not killed zombies in a long time, was protected by Su Xiangzhe the entire time. Lin Cheng, who had just advanced to Level Five, stood next to Mao Qiqi, killing zombies while also protecting Qiqi.

Seeing more and more zombies being attracted from the front, Su Jin frowned and conjured two Man-eating Flowers to block both sides of the road. While they couldn’t stop all of the zombies, they could alleviate some pressure for everyone.

"There are just too many zombies here,"

Li Xiuying couldn’t help but say. They hadn’t even entered H city yet; they were merely on the highway leading there.

"Qiqi, what’s the situation around us?"

Su Jin asked loudly from the bus.

"There are more than two thousand gathered together up front, and there are also some scattered ones further ahead,"

Mao Qiqi said.

"It must have been attracted by the people who passed by earlier."

Lu Hao’s palms conjured up two unrestrained fire dragons, which charged towards the densest part of the zombie horde. Upon contact, the fire dragons did not stop but smashed into the zombies even further ahead.

He had just taken care of two Level Six mutated zombies and was now free to launch a fire element area attack.

"At this rate, we should be able to finish them off pretty quickly,"

Nie Qing said from mid-air, looking towards the distant zombie horde.

Lin Xiuyuan was not to be outdone. The approaching row of zombies was suddenly frozen, and as the sound of ice breaking hit the ground, their heads shattered into countless ice cubes. Lin Xiuyuan even came up with a poetic name for this move: Jade Beads Falling on the Ground.

"Hehe, now watch my other ultimate move, Thousand Miles of Ice~"

As Lin Xiuyuan spoke, he placed his hand on the ground. Suddenly, the road in front turned into a sheet of ice, causing the following zombies to slip and fall. When they tried to get up, they kept falling again.

"Stop showing off and just kill them,"

Huang Yunxiang said irritably. If the zombies couldn’t approach them, weren’t they just wasting their time?

Lin Xiuyuan had no choice but to remove the ice, as it was indeed difficult for them to hit the zombies’ vital spots as they floundered on the ice surface.

"Brother Xiuyuan is like the ice queen Elsa,"

Mao Qiqi said while chopping down zombies.

"Please call me the King of Ice and Snow, thank you,"

Lin Xiuyuan knew that Qiqi used to love watching the Ice Queen, but he was not a woman. Nevertheless, he also noticed that his little cousin was gradually becoming capable of protecting herself. Zombies approaching her were blocked by an invisible barrier.

Lin Cheng had noticed this as well, which is why he dared to let Mao Qiqi act freely.

"It seems I was able to do it after the last promotion, but I never had the chance to kill zombies,"

Mao Qiqi said happily.

Her mental element ability allowed her to sense all the zombies nearby, so she knew when zombies were approaching even without looking. Using her now easily accessible mental element barrier, she could protect herself.

"Oh~~ Then Xiao Yue will be heartbroken,"

Lin Xiuyuan joked, feeling that Qiqi would need less and less protection as time went on.

"Why? Xiao Yue should be happy for me when he sees a teammate getting stronger,"

Mao Qiqi answered seriously, just as she would be happy to see any member of the Heart Talk Team advance in level.

Lin Xiuyuan stopped talking because he noticed that the number of zombies killed by Lu Hao was increasing rapidly. The man-eating flowers had been retracted by Su Jin, and it seemed that they were about to clear out all the zombies in the area.

Su Jin watched her family with a sense of satisfaction; everyone was getting stronger, and no one was holding the others back. Now, she suddenly found herself being protected by everyone...

The minibus continued onward, and just as Qiqi had said, after passing that area, only a few scattered zombies remained by the roadside.

"Since we’re back in our old home, let’s kill some more zombies here,"

Su Xiangzhe said. The scenery on both sides of the road, while entirely changed and not within the city limits of H City, still held a trace of familiarity for them, who had lived here for decades.

Although they did not regret leaving this place, upon seeing what their hometown had become, they still wanted to do something.
