Apocalyptic Nation: The Apocalypse is Ahead, I Have Your Back

"What are you afraid of? I'm still here." This was all Shi Yin could promise. As long as she remained, the Flame Dragon Nation would not perish.

Facing the apocalypse, Shi Yin dec...

Chapter 98 A Strong Order

If those two stood together, fearless in the face of danger, and shared a common hatred and loyalty with the other two who were already dead, perhaps Yin would even have shown them some respect.

If they give any legitimate reason.

For example, they want to be saviors.

Then add some conspiracy theories, such as the government desperately suppressing information about zombies and ominous signs, which is a form of deception for the public.

If Shi Yin were to accuse them so righteously, she might actually think they could be saved and spare their lives.

Unfortunately, he has no other strengths besides his superpowers.

Such a force, which is useless except for its strength, will not be a helper, but rather the biggest trouble.

"Let's go. I'll show those videos to all the lucky superhumans who awakened their abilities ahead of time." Shi Yin patted off imaginary dust from her body. "I want to see how many people have the guts."

As it turns out, not many people have the guts.

He was bold before because he had never been taught a lesson.

After that, social order seemed to improve considerably. Not only that, but many people also went to the police station to request amnesty.

Shi Yin then issued the assessment criteria, and each department printed out forms overnight to start testing and statistics. In the first month, more than 300 people signed up.

However, no more than ten people have actually gotten lucky and awakened their superpowers. The rest are basically reborn people and people who have had prophetic dreams. After strict screening and signing a voluntary agreement, they are sent to the laboratory to awaken their powers.

The number of people dropped sharply in the second month, with only a dozen or so people remaining, and only one person awakened his special ability ahead of schedule.

It's clear how rare it was that four awakened individuals suddenly caused trouble together last time.

However, most superpowers are actually quite ordinary, and superpowers that are almost conceptual are very rare.

Most of them are common elements, such as strength, physical strength, or cold weapons. However, there are quite a few superpowers that, while not strong, are very practical, such as signal coverage and brainwave communication.

Signal coverage is extremely useful in the current information age. As long as Yanlong Kingdom can hold on to the present and not collapse in the apocalypse, and all signal towers are operating normally, signal coverage is simply an excellent tracking, positioning, and detection aid.

Brainwave synesthesia is also very popular in the post-apocalyptic world. Sometimes when you're busy, you can connect directly with the brainwaves of everyone in the area without even touching the ground. You can understand what the other person means just by looking at them, without having to say a word. It's incredibly efficient.

Moreover, healing abilities make up the majority, making them practically chosen doctors. Relatively speaking, with so many abilities, truly offensive abilities are quite rare.

Indeed, in every era, there are always the largest groups of people who work as laborers.

Of course, there must be a price to pay for using superpowers. The Yanlong Kingdom is determined to understand the principle of cost before developing superpowers, so as not to make unnecessary sacrifices for its soldiers.

These costs vary widely, and the weaker the power, the smaller the cost, which is where healing abilities have the greatest advantage.

Ji Chuan's emotional abilities also affect him when he uses them. If he is not mentally strong, he might collapse before the other person even does anything.

Lin Beiyue's weapon imagination ability is also somewhat overpowered; he's practically a human powder keg. After all, firearms are weapons, and nuclear weapons are weapons too.

Of course, the cost would be too high.

Lin Beiyue's price is that when using these superpowers, she will have burn marks on her body, accompanied by the pain of burns. As long as she doesn't use the superpowers, they will fade after a while. The stronger the weapon she uses, the more burns she will get, and the slower the marks will fade.

Shi Yin warned Lin Beiyue not to let the burns exceed half of his body, because when everything is beyond repair, even a god cannot save him.

People are just a little curious: Shion and Helmod are so strong, Shion can fight whenever she wants, and Helmod can make things whenever she wants, but the two of them never seem to pay a price.

But since the two of them didn't say anything, everyone else could only keep their doubts to themselves.

The military deployment is complete, the information blockade is complete, and the control of supplies is complete.

So in early July, the government began to organize the mass migration of people. It did not require all the people in the country to be crowded together, but some uninhabited ghost buildings had to be filled, and people from a city had to be concentrated together and not dispersed.

In response, some developers cried out in despair.

However, before these people could even utter two words, they were immediately detained. The speed was astounding, and after a few times, no one dared to cause trouble anymore.

Within a month, the migration of the entire nation was completed.

Soon, people discovered that the government had registered exclusive accounts on various platforms.

The name of the "Yanlong Kingdom Apocalypse Intelligence Bureau" appeared at the top of the list with its official logo, and the first item was a summary of news from a news broadcast a month ago.

In August, the government began organizing the protection and maintenance of signal towers, and people started ordering food online without leaving their homes, with soldiers delivering the food to their doorsteps.

Of course, when someone spreads conspiracy theories online, they are immediately taken down and shut down. While these people are wondering why their posts have been blocked and can no longer be seen, there is a knock on the door.

As a result, countless radical troublemakers received a "tea gift" after posting their messages this month.

The government has not completely silenced everyone. Appropriate speculation is not entirely without merit. It can stimulate people's thinking, raise their awareness and enthusiasm, and help the government control the direction of public opinion.

Covering your mouth too tightly can backfire, and besides, it's completely unnecessary.

Previously, Yanlong Kingdom had been under nationwide lockdown twice due to the virus, so this time entering a nationwide lockdown was a piece of cake; they had experience with it.

However, the special forces formed for the post-apocalyptic world caused some commotion.

The cause was the command issued by Toki.

The background is that Helmod not only invented a zombie detector, but also a superpower detector. The superpower detector is divided into 10 levels, which can detect whether a person has superpowers and how much of their superpowers they have used.

Generally speaking, when the ability detector score exceeds 8, it means that the person has overdeveloped their ability and is in a dangerous state. Some abilities that come at very low cost can reach 9.

Note: Usage is not the same as strength. The strength of a power is unrelated to its usage level. It refers to the usage level within the existing strength. For example, if someone's ability level reaches A, a usage level of 3 can surpass a level D of 10.

10 is strictly prohibited. Military orders are like mountains, clearly warning that once you exceed 9 or reach 10, you will be subject to extremely severe punishment.

However, the point of confusion for everyone was not this, but rather because Tokine had issued a decree.

[All superpowered individuals must not use their abilities above level 3 and should fight primarily using their physical bodies and their exclusive weapons.]

What does 3 gears mean?

Take the lightning ability as an example. The third level is equivalent to being able to target only one zombie. It changes from targeting a group to targeting a single one. It can only shock a zombie once and cannot shock it continuously. Moreover, it cannot kill the zombie. It can only paralyze or stiffen the zombie for a moment.

As for other fire-based and water-based abilities, they're practically no different from blinding someone with a small flame.

Although people with superpowers can still have many unexpected effects in combat, Gear 3, while not powerful enough to overwhelm an opponent, is definitely enough to seriously disrupt them.

However, even though they all possess superpowers, they can only use Gear 3 in a frustrating way. What are they doing with Gear 7? Are they just saving it for fun?

Toki's response was unusually firm.
