The strange weather did not affect the two people in the house at all, and the afterglow of passion still lingered in the air.
The red raindrops pattered against the window, making a crackling sound. Zhou Yuxuan helped Chen Xiaoru clean up and watched her fall into a deep sleep. Then he walked to the window and looked out at the pouring red rain, his brows furrowed.
"Red Rain arrived so much earlier in this life," he whispered to himself, with a hint of solemnity in his tone.
"It seems the situation is worse than I expected." In his previous life, it was this red rain that awakened his dual abilities, lightning and psychic. This time, he decided to repeat the trick. After taking a deep look at Chen Xiaoru, who slept soundly in bed, he dressed and headed out.
Almost the moment he stepped out of the door, Chen Xiaoru opened her eyes and rolled her eyes with a hint of confusion.
"System, where is Zhou Yuxuan doing?" Chen Xiaoru propped up one elbow, rubbed her sleepy eyes with the other hand, and asked softly to the air.
"Host, it's raining red outside. This kind of rain can awaken humans' superpowers, but it can also turn people into zombies. This red rain can be said to be tailor-made for zombies." The system's voice sounded in her mind.
"Oh? So magical? It can awaken superpowers and turn people into zombies?"
Chen Xiaoru became interested and sat up from the bed, her smooth legs sliding out from under the thin quilt. "So, tell me, if I go out in the rain, will I also awaken my superpowers? Or turn into a zombie?" She rested her chin on her knees, her eyes flashing with eagerness.
"Host, you are already powerful enough. Your frying pan can ignore any supernatural powers. Do you need any additional abilities?"
The system asked in confusion, "Also, the risk of becoming a zombie is very high. I don't recommend you try it."
"That's not the way to say it," Chen Xiaoru shook her head, a hint of longing in her tone. "I want to try to see if I can awaken my spatial ability. Maybe I can merge it with my personal space and make it even bigger! Just think about it, a bigger space means I can hold more things. How convenient!"
"Host, why don't you think about saving the world? With more powerful abilities, you can help more people." The system couldn't help but complain, "Isn't saving the world more meaningful than expanding space?"
Chen Xiaoru curled her lips. "Saving the world? That's easy to say. I don't have that kind of ability. Besides, the world is so big, what does it have to do with me?"
"No, no, no, host, you can do it. Your potential is limitless, it just hasn't been fully developed yet. But... you need to pay a little price." The system's voice was a little mysterious. "It's just a small price."
Chen Xiaoru scoffed, her slender fingers tapping the bed sheet lightly. "Oh? Really? I thought it was free, but it turns out I have to pay something! Are you attracted to my beauty?" She deliberately teased the system, her tone relaxed. "A system, and you want to take advantage of me?"
"Host, I am the system! The one you are talking about doesn't exist!"
The system's voice sounded somewhat helpless. "I'm suggesting you go out in the rain for your own good. Besides, don't you want your baby to grow up in a safe environment? Powerful superpowers can protect you and your child."
Chen Xiaoru's smile gradually faded, she fell silent, and fell into deep thought. She said, "Let me think about it!"
As soon as Zhou Yuxuan came out of the house, he hurriedly shuttled around the community.
He had to find a safe place to hide from those damn zombies, but God was against him.
After walking a few steps, a large number of zombies rushed over from all directions.
"Damn it!" His face changed, he thought to himself that something was wrong, turned around and wanted to run back.
But when he looked back, he saw that the retreat route had been completely blocked by zombies.
These zombies seemed to be controlled by someone, approaching him with their fangs and claws bared.
"Roar..." The low roar echoed in my ears, making me feel creepy.
A fishy smell hit Zhou Yuxuan in the face, and his stomach churned and he almost vomited.
He gripped the metal pipe tightly in his hand, and sweat seeped out of his palm.
"What should I do? What should I do?" He thought anxiously in his heart, his brain working fast, looking for a way to escape.
The red rain slammed down on his body mercilessly, freezing him to the bone and making him more awake.
The surrounding residential buildings were silent, without a sound, only the roars and heavy footsteps of zombies echoed, like a symphony of death.
The flower beds and lawns in the community have been dyed a strange dark red by the red rain, emitting a disgusting fishy-sweet smell.
Several zombies had already approached him, stretching out their rotten arms, trying to grab him.
A shrill alarm exploded in Chen Xiaoru's mind, and the system's voice followed closely, its tone so urgent that it almost broke: "Host, hurry! Zhou Yuxuan is surrounded by a swarm of zombies! The situation is extremely urgent!"
Chen Xiaoru suddenly sat up from the bed, scratched her messy hair, and looked impatient.
"What the hell! He has to run out on the balcony instead of getting wet? He's desperate!" She complained as she hurriedly put on her clothes, muttering, "Really? He only knows how to cause me trouble!"
"Host! Now is not the time to complain! It will be too late if it's too late! If he dies, your mission will be a complete failure! He must not die before the child is born!" The system's voice was obviously trembling, and it was obvious that the situation was more critical than it said.
"Alright, alright! I get it! Stop rushing me! I'm getting dressed!" Chen Xiaoru's tone was filled with a subtle hint of anxiety. She rushed to the door in two or three steps, flung it open, and dashed out.
