"Let's eat first! After lunch, I'll take you out to play for a while!"

Bai Xizhu patted her flat stomach.

"play?"

Bai Zhengxuan looked at the scene below with indescribable disbelief, feeling utterly devastated.

He was just a retired teacher!

In all honesty, when he taught, he always explained the core socialist values ​​to his students and promoted materialism.

Looking at the zombies below that were still jumping around even after they were dead, Old Master Bai Zhengxuan was inwardly screaming "Holy crap!"

"Okay, let's eat first!"

Liu Jing glanced reluctantly downstairs, suppressing her curiosity.

She really wanted to dissect it and see what the principle behind those zombies being able to jump around was!

Bai Anhai looked up without looking downstairs and quickly went to the kitchen to start cooking.

Bai Zhengxuan went over to help with a heavy expression.

The kitchen was filled with the rich aroma of food. The two of them probably didn't want to go downstairs to "play," so they dawdled and prepared more than a dozen hot dishes.

What's meant to come will come.

Liu Jing looked at the dozen or so hot dishes on the table with a smile. "The apocalypse is here, we need to be frugal! Are you going to feed all this to the zombies if we can't finish it?"

"It'll be ready soon. I'll stew some Buddha Jumps Over the Wall and make some squirrel fish!"

Bai Anhai rolled up his sleeves and kept busy.

As long as he's busy, you can't drag him down to play!

"If you can't finish it, why don't you take this food and feed it to the little cuties?"

Wang Yiyun looked at Bai Anhai with a smile.

"Who is Little Cutie?"

Bai Anhai's hand, which was chopping vegetables, froze, a sense of foreboding washing over him.

"Those adorable little ones downstairs!"

Wang Yiyun and Liu Jing continued to look at Bai Anhai and Bai Zhengxuan with smiles.

Bai Anhai:......

"Dinner's ready!"

Grandpa Bai decisively put down the knife and began serving dishes to the living room.

The table was laden with food.

Because they had received a baptism of energy today and absorbed a lot of supernatural abilities, everyone ate with great relish.

"Sister, do those zombies really have crystal cores in their brains?" Bai Yifan asked Bai Xizhu while eating.

“Yes, if you cut open a zombie’s brain, you’ll find a crystal core. Some zombies don’t have one in their brains,” Bai Xizhu replied.

"Tsk, how amazing." Liu Jing clicked her tongue. "I've dissected corpses for most of my life, and I've never dissected anything like this before!"

"What will the crystal core look like right after it's been extracted?" Wang Yiyun asked curiously, pointing at the braised pork. "It won't look like this, all bloody and messy, will it?"

Bai Anhai glanced at the braised pork he was holding with too much soy sauce on his chopsticks, his lips twitched, and he decisively put the braised pork into Leng Yebai's bowl.

"No, most crystal cores are white, with only a very small number being other colors," Bai Xizhu explained.

Half an hour later, Bai Xizhu took out several longswords from her spatial storage.

"Xiao Fan, you're a metal-type ability user, why don't you upgrade these swords?" Bai Xizhu said.

Bai Yifan nodded, and pale yellow energy overflowed from his hand, then slowly enveloped the longsword.

Bai Xizhu looked at the energy in Bai Yifan's hand and carefully sensed it. Bai Yifan could now be considered a first-level superhuman.

This is only the first day of the apocalypse, and Bai Yifan is already ahead of the vast majority of superhumans.

"Can any metal be strengthened?"

Leng Yebai carried his broken bicycle to Bai Yifan's side.

“…Yes.” Bai Xizhu’s lips twitched.

Bai Yifan looked at Leng Yebai with sympathy, never expecting that there were people in his family who were even poorer than him!

Bai Xizhu held the longsword that Bai Yifan had reinforced and bent it with her hands. It was originally made of special steel, and after Bai Yifan's reinforcement, it became even more durable.

Finally, the family stood at the door, ready to go downstairs and play for a while!

Everyone was wearing a special windproof jacket and gloves.

The gloves are made of a special type of gel that even dogs can't bite through. They are very thin and light, and wearing them on your hands doesn't restrict your movement.

This time, Bai Xizhu only planned to take everyone for a walk around the first floor, let them see the zombies, and prepare them mentally for the coming apocalypse.

"Shall we go out and come back?" Leng Yebai asked Bai Xizhu.

If he doesn't come back, he'll have to take the bicycle with him.

"Come back!" Bai Xizhu nodded gently.

In the early days of the apocalypse, most people will stay at home and wait for rescue.

The base was established some time after the apocalypse began.

It's the same everywhere now; there's no absolutely safe place.

Therefore, Bai Xizhu chose to stay at home with her family for a while, and then drive the bus out after her family had settled in.

Bai Xizhu placed her hand on the doorknob, preparing to open the door.

"Wait!" Bai Zhengxuan gripped his longsword and asked Bai Anhai with a nervous expression, "Would killing zombies be considered excessive self-defense?"

"That's considered a crime of abusing a corpse!" Bai Anhai's lips twitched.

Everyone: ...

Are you ready?

Bai Xizhu turned her head and asked.

"Ready!"

Bai Zhengxuan responded weakly, his voice sounding extremely unnatural.

With a click, Bai Xizhu turned the handle and opened the door.

Everyone held their breath.

It was quiet outside; there were no zombie roars in the hallway.

Bai Xizhu lifted her foot to take a step out, but Bai Anhai pulled her back.

"I'm in front!"

Bai Anhai walked out with a serious expression and his head held high.

If you ignore the fact that Bai Anhai's legs were trembling a little, he still has the image of a tall, reliable, and strict father.

Bai Xizhu and Leng Yebai exchanged a glance, then separated and walked on opposite sides, so they could spot any situation immediately.
