The tsunami caused by the meteorite reached heights of hundreds or even thousands of meters.

In less than a week, the planet was covered by ocean ash and dust, and slowly, a white gas was released from the ocean, filling the entire globe.

One day, the first monster to evolve due to the mutation appeared.

Immediately afterwards, at the same time, news about the monster appeared all over the world, and more and more people fled in fear and dread.

Upon receiving orders, the Superpowers Union immediately dispatched its members to various battlefields.

This is a death order, an order to fight to the death.

The world is in chaos, and people only know how to struggle for survival. The superhumans who were once idolized are now ignored. Although the superhumans are powerful, they cannot withstand this sudden crisis.

At this point, Nan Chen looked at Wang Lan and suddenly asked, "Can you face a pack of wolves all by yourself?"

"Uh... probably not."

Nan Chen smiled, shook his head, and said, "No, it's not 'should,' you absolutely cannot!"

Wang Lan blushed.

Nan Chen continued, "You were helpless against the locust army we encountered before and could only run away, let alone the wolf pack."

"Ahem, you, you should get to the point!"

Nan Chen smiled and said, "I have collected some pictures and texts about how people with superpowers resisted the mutation. I saw photos of people with superpowers being torn apart by wolves and devoured by insect swarms, their bones exposed. The people they were so eager to save abandoned them when the mutation occurred. People need partners, and people with superpowers are also people. They also need the help of their companions. However, disasters occurred all over the world at the same time, and they could only be scattered in different places, fighting alone, and then dying tragically."

“Those things are all in the past,” Wang Lan said. “Now that the anomaly has stabilized, we shouldn’t dwell on the past or be unable to let go of it.”

Nan Chen sighed again, then looked at the frog, "Do you still remember that place?"

"Huh? You mean Binhai City?"

Nan Chen nodded.

The frog shook its head and said, "I don't think I can remember. After all, I've been here for thirty years, so I definitely can't remember that place."

"Sigh," Nan Chen chuckled bitterly, "I never thought that a place I thought only existed in legends would actually exist. I really want to go and see that Superpower Association!"

“No, nothing,” the frog said. “There’s only ruins left there; the giant snake destroyed it all.”

"Don't think about those things," Wang Lan said as she walked to Nan Chen's side. "Those are all in the past. Besides, we haven't even gotten out yet. Once we get out, we'll be free and won't be trapped here anymore. We can explore however we want."

"Hmm," Nan Chen nodded, and for the first time ever, he smiled at Wang Lan.

It seems this little girl is really curious about people with superpowers!

Thinking this, Wang Lan looked at the frog again and said, "I'll assume you're telling the truth for now!"

"No, no," the frog quickly said, "I really, really didn't lie to you!"

Wang Lan said, "You just said that everything you know was heard from a local, is that right?"

"Yes!"

"Didn't they ever think about leaving here?"

“I don’t know,” the frog said. “But as far as I know, these natives have lived here for a very long time. And every year, many people accidentally wander into this place. The local natives mainly eat these living people, and they also hunt and gather fruit.”

"Do you think it's possible that they know the way out?"

"Well, I don't know," the frog said. "I haven't had much contact with them." Then, as if realizing something, the frog's eyes widened and it asked, "You, you're not going to go find these natives, are you?"

"Hmm? I did mean that, so why can't I?"

“It’s not that it’s impossible,” the frog said. “I know you’re strong, but think about it, these natives live by cannibalism. Do you think they’ll communicate well with you?”

"Didn't you understand what I said?" Wang Lan looked at the frog strangely and said, "I don't want to make enemies with them, nor do I want to become close friends with them. As long as they tell me the way out of here, I just want to confirm whether the only way is to defeat those dragons. Is it that hard to communicate?"

“You may have misunderstood it,” Nan Chen said. “It said that those natives live by cannibalism, probably because it is afraid that if we make direct contact with them, they will attack us. In that case, we will not only fail to find a way out, but also get ourselves into a lot of trouble.”

The frog nodded repeatedly.

“This…” Wang Lan stroked his chin, recalling the native he had encountered in the grass. That sudden acceleration was indeed unpredictable.

“It seems we only have one path left,” Wang Lan said: “Let’s go fight those ‘dragons’!”

"You want to slay a dragon?" The frog looked at Wang Lan in surprise.

“Yes, I want to slay the dragon,” Wang Lan said to the frog. “Since you have lived here for so many years, you should be familiar with most of this place, if not know it inside and out. Draw me a map of this place and mark the location of each dragon. Then you can leave.”

"Really? It's that simple?" the frog asked, somewhat surprised.

“That’s right, go ahead and draw,” Wang Lan replied, too lazy to argue with him any further, and then walked over to a tree to rest.

“It’s not just about the locations of those dragons,” Nan Chen suddenly said. “Since you’ve lived here for so long, you must know that there are stone giants with red crystals on their heads here. Draw them too.”
