"Let's go." As soon as Song Zile woke up, Song Ziming led everyone to get up immediately.
By this time, an endless horde of zombies had gathered outside, clinging to windows and stairs, layer upon layer, their mouths emitting instinctive roars and cravings for fresh flesh.
Song Ziyang flew in the air to point the way, Song Ziming and Song Ziying led the way, Song Ziyang and Song Ziqi brought up the rear, and Lao Luo and Lao Hei flanked them, protecting Song Zile, who was mentally exhausted, as well as Song Zian and Song Ziqing, who had no special abilities.
There were too many zombies, especially several high-level zombies eyeing them from all sides. Soon, everyone's superpowers were starting to give way, and they had to rely on absorbing crystal cores to sustain themselves.
In fact, through three years of research, everyone discovered that directly absorbing the energy from the crystal core has side effects. Absorbing too much can easily cause mental breakdown and hinder advancement, but at this point they had no other choice.
Seeing their older siblings exhausted, Song Zian and Song Ziqing were extremely anxious.
Song Zi'an, in particular, was clutching his heart and struggling to breathe; even walking had become difficult.
"Sixth Brother." Song Ziqing's eyes were filled with tears. At this moment, she did not notice that her tears did not fall to the ground, but instead slid in the air and moistened Song Zian's pale lips.
“This is…” Song Zi’an looked at Song Ziqing in surprise, then forced a smile, “Ziqing, you have superpowers.”
"Really?" Song Ziqing blinked blankly, then cried again, "Sixth Brother, please don't worry about me. How are you now?"
"fine."
Song Ziqing didn't believe him. Instead, she anxiously shouted into the air, "Aunt Song, I know you can hear me! Sixth Brother is sick again. If you don't show up soon, he'll die!"
“Mother Song…” Song Zile kept her eyes closed as she relayed their current situation to those around her, not stopping even as the pain became unbearable.
Not far away, Song Xia suddenly opened her eyes, frowning impatiently, finding it incredibly noisy.
"Heh..."
The surrounding high-level zombies retreated in fear upon seeing this, bowing their heads and worshipping their king.
“Mother Song…” Song Ziming and the others gradually couldn’t hold on any longer. No matter how high their superpowers were, how could they be a match for tens of thousands of zombies?
"Since Mother Song has lost consciousness, it's better for us to die here together." Song Ziqi's face showed no sadness, but rather a calm demeanor. She only felt a little sad looking at Song Ziqing and the others, after all, her younger siblings were still so young.
Song Ziqing stared intently with wide eyes and said seriously, "If it weren't for Mother Song, or my older brothers and sisters, we wouldn't want to live alone."
Song Zi'an breathed weakly, "It has always been Mother Song who has protected us, but unfortunately we are unable to save Mother Song."
Old Luo and Old Hei watched this scene with heavy hearts. Having spent three years with these children, they had long regarded them as their own. They thought the hope of eliminating the apocalypse had arrived, but they never expected it to come to this so suddenly.
Why did fate have to play such a cruel joke on them? Are humans destined to perish in this natural disaster?
"Aww..."
"Chirp..."
"Moo..."
Hearing the noise, Song Zile and the others looked outside. Song Ziyang excitedly shouted, "It's mutated animals! A large group of mutated animals is coming towards us!"
"There are also people with superpowers, like Uncle Min and Zhong Xun!"
Song Ziming was taken aback: "Why are they here?"
"They must have come to save you." Lao Luo and Lao Hei felt their bodies filled with strength again. They were about to be overwhelmed by zombies, but they mustered their strength and fought their way out.
Guan Hao, riding on the giant ape, looked at Song Zile and said, "You just go find your mother, we'll escort you on the way."
"Thank you." Song Zile helped the weak Song Zian up. The seven siblings looked at each other with emotion, especially Zhong Xun, whom they never expected to come.
Zhong Xun laughed loudly, "Don't thank me. I was forced to come by Dr. Jia. We finally produced a genius like Song Zile, and we can't let anything happen to him. Besides... without your mother Song overseeing the base, it would fall sooner or later. Now we're not only helping you, but also helping ourselves."
On the one hand, it was at Dr. Jia's insistence; on the other hand, he also wanted to take a gamble.
Because he clearly understood that once Song Xia was completely influenced by the black stone and lost his mind, the already unbalanced balance of power between the survivors and the zombies would shift even further towards the zombies, and humanity would have no hope left.
Only by having these children bring Song Xia back to her senses, and only by having Song Zile bring back Black Stone and develop a special medicine, can the end of the world be saved.
So he came with his men without hesitation. He used to be the least trusting of intuition, but now he wanted to believe in it this time.
With the help of the superhumans and mutated animals holding off the zombies, Song Ziming and his group quickly fought their way through. They could sense that Song's mother was right in front of them.
At this moment, Song Xia was feeling very agitated. The shouts she had just heard were driving her crazy. Why was it so annoying?
"Xiaxia, Xiaxia..." System Xiaoling kept calling, "Wake up quickly, if something really happens, it will be too late to regret it!"
A voice kept shouting in her head, making Song Xia's headache worse. She vented her anger on the high-level zombie.
The advanced zombies lingered around, neither daring to leave nor fearing her attack, anxiously shifting their positions.
"Xiaxia, Xiao Zian has fallen ill. Quickly give Xiao Zian the medicine."
"Shut up!"
"Xiaxia, they really need you." Xiaoling was almost in tears.
Song Zi'an, who was almost here, was also trying his best to hold on. The pain made his face pale, and large beads of sweat kept dripping from his forehead.
He moved with difficulty, and Song Ziqing put her hand on his arm and helped him along. The two children, who were only ten years old, gritted their teeth.
Song Ziqi and the others saw this and were anxious, but they couldn't spare any hands to help. There were just too many zombies. Even with so many superhumans and mutated animals coming to help, it still wasn't enough. After all, this apocalypse had already turned more than 90% of the world's people and animals into zombies.
Moreover, whether it was because so many superhumans were fighting or because Song's mother was there, the number of zombies coming this way continued to increase.
"Aunt Song, please, please come and see my younger siblings!"
"Jade Emperor, Guanyin Bodhisattva... all the gods and Buddhas... if I could, I would give my life to bring Song Mama back to her senses."
Seeing Song Zi'an's breathing becoming more and more rapid, Song Ziming and the others were almost in despair, praying helplessly. Song Ziyang stared ahead, made a decision, picked up Song Zi'an and rushed towards the place where the high-level zombies were gathered. Now he only had this one chance left to gamble.
