"Mother Song!"

The three children were startled. Looking at Song Ziqing and the others who had run out, Song Ziqi shouted again, "Zian, pull your brother and sister back inside, close the door, and don't come out no matter what noise you hear."

Song Zian pursed his lips and nodded. His eyes were red. After closing the door, he forced himself to move a chair to block the door.

Song Ziqing's tears kept flowing: "Sixth Brother, Second Sister and the others are in danger."

"I know." Song Zian closed his eyes, but there was nothing he could do. If he went out now, he would only implicate his second sister and the others.

Song Zile remained silent the whole time. He held the Lego robot he had assembled in his hand, then slammed it heavily on the ground and stomped on it as if in a fit of rage.

Outside, Song Xia bared her teeth at the two mutated wolves, who then spotted her and charged towards her.

"Mother Song!" Song Ziqi and the others shouted anxiously.

Song Ziying quickly got up with the iron rod in her hand. She didn't even realize that the iron rod was melting and slowly turning into a long sword.

"ah!"

"roar!"

Song Ziying and Song Xia attacked simultaneously. Song Xia held the wolf's jaws, while Song Ziying plunged his sword into the wolf's belly.

Blood flowed out and splattered on Song Ziying's face. Song Ziying herself was stunned. How did the iron rod get stuck in there?

Song Xia swung the wolf aside with force, then punched another mutated wolf that was pouncing on him.

Song Ziying, disregarding her surprise, immediately drew her sword and joined the fight alongside Song Xia.

Song Ziyang, who was standing nearby, cleverly went to finish off the mutated wolf. Song Ziqi followed. The mutated wolf still had some breath left. The two of them took turns slashing at it until the mutated wolf finally closed its eyes and fell down.

With one of them finally dead, the danger lessened, and they noticed her abnormality faster than Song Ziying herself.

Song Ziyang asked excitedly, "Second sister, does fourth sister have a special ability?"

Song Ziqi replied excitedly, "It should be."

"That's great! With her and my older brother both having superpowers, we'll be even safer." Song Ziyang was excited but also a little disappointed. Why didn't he have one? He also wanted to protect everyone and didn't want to be a burden.

Song Ziqi keenly observed his emotions and comforted him, "Don't be discouraged. Maybe there will be other opportunities later. Besides, I don't have any special abilities either, do I? Does not having special abilities mean we're not family anymore?"

“Of course not,” Song Ziyang retorted instinctively. “I just don’t want to be a burden.”

"You're not a burden, Ziyang. I don't want to hear that again. Look at the meat soup we had yesterday, isn't that your doing?"

"But the rabbit meat attracted mutated wolves."

"That's my fault too, Second Sister. I didn't hide the rabbit meat properly."

Song Ziyang became anxious: "How can you blame Second Sister for this?"

"Then you should be blamed? If you still blame yourself, your second sister will be angry. At least we learned a lesson this time, right? We'll know to handle mutated animals more properly in the future."

Song Ziyang stopped worrying and focused on observing the battle. The battle was nearing its end. Song's mother and Song Ziying were cooperating very well. The mutated wolves were covered in wounds, but they couldn't do anything to them.

"Oh no!" Song Ziqi pulled Song Ziyang out. It turned out that the wolf had realized it couldn't beat Song Xia and Song Ziying, so it chose to attack them.

Enraged, Song Xia jumped onto the wolf and grabbed the fallen steel knife, stabbing it into the mutated wolf's eyes.

"Awooo!" The mutated wolf howled in pain, then rammed into things, making the house shake.

Upon hearing the commotion, Song Ziming, who had rushed back, changed his expression drastically. Before the car had even come to a complete stop, he charged straight in, and a bolt of lightning struck the wolf.

Song Xia was caught in the crossfire and let out a somewhat displeased roar.

Song Ziming maintained his attacking stance, but was then stopped by Song Ziqi.

“Brother, Mother Song is protecting us. Although she is infected, she is different from ordinary zombies.”

Having encountered more zombies, Song Ziming naturally noticed the anomaly as soon as he stopped, followed by a pleasant surprise.

"Aunt Song, it's me, Ziming. Are you alright?"

"Hmph!" Song Xia turned away angrily.

Song Ziming was extremely embarrassed. What should he do if he seemed to have angered his mother?

"Mrs. Song, I'm sorry, I just wanted to protect everyone."

Song Xia turned her head, opened the door that Song Zi'an had just closed, and then lay down on the bed and closed her eyes.

This series of actions stunned everyone, but Song's mother seemed to have become more independent.

"Come and clean up these two wolves." Song Ziqi was very excited. Although they lost the rabbit meat, they could eat the two wolves for a longer time.

"This house is no good." Song Ziyang shook his hand. If even he could shake it, it certainly couldn't withstand the attacks from the zombies and mutated animals that were about to come.

Song Ziming made a quick decision: "Let's find another place to stay. On our way back, I found a nice villa complex. Ziying, go and help your younger siblings pack their things."

"Oh!" Song Ziying was still in a daze, unable to come back to her senses. Did she really have superpowers?

"Big brother, do you know what kind of superpower this is?" She tried to activate it, but the longsword in her hand did not react at all.

"Huh? That was definitely possible just now!"

“I can testify that Ziying has indeed activated her superpowers. This longsword was just an iron rod a moment ago.”

Song Ziming picked it up and examined it: "That should be a metal-type ability. As far as I know, metal-type abilities are one of the most powerful abilities in terms of attack. Ziying, congratulations. The reason you can't activate it now is probably because you used too much force when you first activated the ability. You'll recover after a rest."

"Hmm." Song Ziying was particularly excited. After her older brother said that, she realized that Jin's limbs were a little sore and weak, and his head was also a little sore.

The group went to pack their things, while Song Ziqi cooked. After fighting for so long, it was already dawn, and they would eat their fill before looking for a new place to stay.

Song Ziqi didn't waste any of the fresh wolf blood. She stirred it with salt until it solidified, then cut it into pieces and stewed it with the wolf meat. She also added a little radish at the end. The staple food was steamed buns, and the whole family ate with great relish.

Song Xia, in particular, loved wolf blood and ate bowl after bowl of it.

Song Ziming was particularly surprised. During his trips out, he had never seen a zombie eat cooked food, let alone a zombie holding a bowl and eating by itself.

It seems that Song's mother is really different from the other zombies; maybe she really will recover one day.

"Aunt Song, do you want these?" He took out the crystal cores.

Sure enough, Song Xia's eyes lit up, and she started chewing it with gusto.

"Big brother, what is this?"

“Crystal cores, the stuff inside zombie brains. These things can enhance superpowers. I was wondering if Song Mama would gain more intelligence after eating them.”

Song Ziying nodded: "Mother Song seems to like it very much, then we'll find more for her in the future."
