Bai Yan looked at him, then casually curled her lips into a smile, and looked him up and down: "An ability user... a fire-type ability user?"
Zhou Yunan found her gaze strange, not like she was looking at a former lover, nor like she was looking at a person—it was like she was looking at an experiment, yes, an experiment!
"Bai Yan, what do you want to do to me?" Zhou Yunan thought of something: "I haven't been deprived of my political rights, you can't use me as an experiment against my will!"
Bai Yan just smiled at him, which made Zhou Yunan feel increasingly terrified.
He forced a smile: "Baby, with such a deep relationship between us, you wouldn't bear to do this, right? What exactly did Lin Rou say to you? I can explain it to you!"
Bai Yan turned around and left quickly.
Her silence only fueled Zhou Yunan's fear. Wasn't it said that a barking dog doesn't bite? Bai Yan knew about the apocalypse, so she must also know that Lin Rou had betrayed her…
What exactly is going on? Is this a trap they've set for me?
Zhou Yunan's mind was in turmoil.
“We are a legitimate research institute backed by the state, not some crooked sect.” Xiao Chen gave him a mocking look: “Mr. Zhou, there’s no need to be afraid. Within the range of the meteorite’s refraction, many people have done the same experiment as you.”
Zhou Yunan looked up at Xiao Chen: "Meteorites, a meteorite shower?"
Xiao Chen did not answer Zhou Yunan again, saying that playing both sides was a matter of character.
It's understandable for normal people to be afraid and hoard supplies when they learn about the apocalypse, but Zhou Yunan bought a large amount of weapons, clearly intending to make a fortune during the chaos of the apocalypse. This shows a problem with his character.
After putting the research institute's bracelet on Zhou Yunan, Xiao Chen sent him to the quarantine area.
...
Life in the research lab wasn't too bad, much more comfortable than in the detention center, but that was only physically.
Zhou Yunan felt agonizing. The feeling of having everything under control had turned into having everything under someone else's control, and he still had no idea what had happened...
Is it possible that there was no apocalypse at all?
He's bankrupt now. Could it be that Lin Rou's appearance was all a trap set by the Bai siblings? After all, all his cash and shares now belong to them.
"Thirty-seven people in the quarantine area suddenly developed fevers today and need to be the primary targets for testing."
Xiao Chen was originally going to take Zhou Yunan for a check-up, but when he heard that someone in the isolation area had a fever, he immediately said, "Put him under close observation immediately. Wait a moment, I'll arrange the work at hand first."
She led Zhou Yunan to the testing station, closed the door, and quickly left.
Zhou Yunan stared in the direction Xiao Chen had left: "They all have fevers?" This is similar to the way Lin Rou described the awakening of superpowers? He murmured.
"Thirty-seven of them have high fevers. I don't know if they'll awaken superpowers or contract the zombie virus..." Suddenly, a voice came from inside.
Zhou Yunan looked around and discovered that there was a monitor there, and the monitor was connected to many images.
"I don't know. Although Lin Rou was reborn, she is just an ordinary person and not a professional. She has never analyzed this problem before."
Zhou Yunan's eyes widened as he looked at the two researchers chatting on the screen.
"Have you read any post-apocalyptic novels? Characters like Lin Rou, who are reborn and have superpowers, are just like the heroines in novels, the kind who wreak havoc everywhere."
"What kind of female lead is she? She's supposed to be all over the place, but she's only killing ordinary people like us. Don't forget, the first thing she wanted to do after being reborn was to steal the bracelet from her roommate, Dean Bai."
"If it weren't for the dean's keen observation and the fact that she noticed something was wrong and began monitoring her beforehand, we would all be completely unaware of the apocalypse. How many people would have died if that were the case?"
"This selfish person, after being reborn, steals other people's opportunities because the dean's boyfriend awakened superpowers and became a powerful being in his previous life, and she also wants to steal the man. If the female lead really adheres to the worldview of the survival of the fittest, how terrifying would this world become?"
The two researchers continued their lively discussion, while Zhou Yunan, sitting in front of the screen, clenched his fists tightly.
He roughly deduced from their conversation that Lin Rou, that idiot, was still an idiot even after being reborn, and that Bai Yan had actually discovered the anomaly and overheard it!
A spatial jade bracelet, a relic of Bai Yan's mother?
Then everything makes sense.
No wonder she wanted Bai Yan's jade bracelet so much, and no wonder he lost so badly this time. Lin Rou ruined him. That idiot made him get monitored by Bai Yan too!
He's like a clown, living under someone else's lens while trying to trap them, only to end up losing everything.
Just thinking about this tormented Zhou Yunan's pride. Being made a fool of like a clown was more painful than going bankrupt.
But Zhou Yunan soon felt better because Lin Rou had been reborn, so what she said must be true: the apocalypse was real, the zombie virus was real, and her superpowers were real.
He will still be a strongman in the apocalypse.
A dark glint flashed across Zhou Yunan's eyes: A superhuman! A superhuman who can command the wind and rain! He didn't believe that he could become a strongman in his previous life, but that his advance planning in this life had backfired.
How's the vaccine going?
"Dean Bai said there is a 60% chance of curing the zombie virus, but there are no samples yet, and everything depends on the success of the experiment."
Zhou Yunan's expression darkened slightly: The more chaotic the apocalypse, the better; there's no need for any vaccine that can cure the virus.
...
At the same time, Lin Rou looked at her watch and took a deep breath: There are two hours until dawn. In two hours, everything will be different.
She continued to stake out the research institute. After Zhou Yunan was arrested, she used her supernatural abilities to track him and knew that he was now being held here.
Before the apocalypse, China maintained good order, and Lin Rou dared not confront the well-trained Chinese soldiers. But it didn't matter; this order would soon collapse…
Judging by the timeline, Zhou Yunan was among the first to awaken his superpowers. Fire and wind superpowers worked well together in the early stages. While waiting, Lin Rou planned how the two of them could quickly establish their own power and gather resources in the early stages.
Meanwhile, before dawn, Ms. Wang had just gotten up at 5:40 a.m. to prepare a meal for her husband who was going out and her children who would be going to school after daybreak.
"Honey, I overslept this morning. Shall I heat up some soup dumplings for you?" she said casually when she heard footsteps behind her.
But the person behind her didn't answer her. She turned her head suspiciously and asked, "Husband?"
"Ahhhhhh!" A bluish-black, almost rotting arm quickly reached out towards her, followed by the man's gaping maw, reeking of putrid flesh.
The woman hadn't realized what was happening; she thought her husband was playing a prank.
The next second, someone bit his neck.
"Help! Help! Ahhh!!!" What is this thing? Why did her husband turn into a monster when she opened her eyes?!
Just as Wang exclaimed in surprise, a rattling sound rang out.
"Attention citizens, attention citizens! This is an emergency announcement!!!"
