Ji Zan lowered his gaze. “Don’t think too much for now. I just talked to Sun Han, and he still can’t control his abilities. Professor Feng is the same. Only MO
Cheng seems to have some fluctuations with his emotions, but he can’t use them at the moment. Perhaps humanity still needs time to adapt.”
As they were speaking, the door opened.
Man Yu walked in, casting a suggestive glance at Fu Shinan. “How are you, Dr. Shinan? Feeling better?”
“I’m not dead yet! Stop making a fuss,” Fu Shinan’s complexion had indeed improved compared to before. It seemed that the system upgrade had its benefits for her, accelerating her recovery time.
Ji Zan glanced at Fu Shinan once again. “Glad you’re okay. I’ll go outside and take a look.”
Watching Ji Zan’s departing figure, Man Yu smiled ambiguously and winked at Fu Shinan. “He said he’s not interested in you, but the moment he heard you were in trouble, he came running. Look at the way he looks at you, it’s far from innocent… It’s a pity, the end of the world, otherwise you would be Mrs.
Sheng!”
Fu Shinan pulled her closer and covered her mouth. “Can you stop talking nonsense! This isn’t the time for romance. Collect your thoughts. I’m already annoyed enough, don’t make things more chaotic.”
Man Yu neither confirmed nor denied it. Art derives from life, and if she didn’t let her imagination run wild, how could she create? Moreover, she had written quite a few love stories, and Ji Zan’s gaze towards Fu Shinan was definitely not ordinary. However, she didn’t say much, glanced at the dark window, and expressed her concern. “I wonder if it can hold up. It feels like our underground basement isn’t as sturdy as we thought…’
Fu Shinan nodded. “The basement is indeed a good place, but it’s not viable for the long term. The zombies are evolving, and there’s no absolute safe place anymore. Besides, the issue of food cannot be solved in the basement. Based on the current situation, Ji Zan’s suggestion is right.”
Man Yu nodded. “That’s true… I just hope those two annoying pests can behave.”
Fu Shinan shrugged. “That’s Ji Zan’s responsibility. Let’s focus on our own tasks.’
Just as their conversation ended, the barking of dogs resounded once again, accompanied by the sound of claws scraping against metal sheets.
Man Yu immediately covered her mouth, and Fu Shinan nervously looked out the window. Before long, she heard the alert sound indicating a drop in the building’s defenses. Her expression changed slightly because a few stray dogs wouldn’t cause the defenses to drop so quickly. There must be a large number of zombies approaching.
Soon, the corridor was filled with the piercing screams of Bai Lianhua. “Brother Ji, where are you? I’m scared…”
Man Yu cursed, “Damn it, is she insane? Why is she shouting at a time like this? Does she want to die? Could she be a spy for the zombies? Doesn’t she know they can locate us through sound?”
Fu Shinan chuckled, “You’ll get used to it. She shouts like this often! Maybe it’s the price we pay for following the powerful Ji Zan.”
Man Yu remained silent.
Soon, Ji Zan’s low voice could be heard in the corridor, “Shut up! Go back to your room and stay there. Do you want to go feed the stray dogs?”
“Mr. Ji, the zombies are climbing up from the damaged area,” came MO Cheng’s voice.
Han Qiang also cursed, “Damn it, they still want to come up?”
“Use iron rods…”
A chaotic sound of footsteps followed as the men rushed to the damaged area.
Fu Shinan quickly focused her attention on the damaged area. To her surprise, she could now see specifically which parts of the defenses were weakened. Without hesitation, she began reinforcing those points. Compared to the entire building, the localized reinforcement was much easier, and without Ji Zan’s presence, the success rate was higher.
What Fu Shinan didn’t know was that as her reinforcement succeeded, the previously damaged areas started healing at a visible rate.
Xia Dong and Sun Han also wore expressions of envy. This was too incredible, and she was using it so proficiently.
“It’s not mine,” Ji Zan instantly thought of Fu Shinan. From the beginning with the two cars, to the hospital, and now at the base, every time he sensed a change in the environment, Fu Shinan had been by his side… But why did her ability awaken so early? It hadn’t rained back then…
But in this brief moment, a large number of zombies climbed up, their speed even faster than before.
Ji Zan and the others fiercely swung their iron rods downward. However, at that moment, they noticed that not far away on the open ground, there seemed to be a zombie standing upright, its mouth emitting a strange sound towards their direction….
