Carrying the energy cores, Su Yao dared not relax for a moment on her way back to the safe house. She knew the significance of these energy cores to her family and their future lives, so she walked cautiously with every step, while remaining vigilant for any new dangers that might arise around her.
Suddenly, the system issued an alarm: "Unidentified flying object detected approaching at extremely high speed, estimated contact in three minutes." Su Yao's heart tightened. She quickly looked around, searching for a place to hide. Not far away was an abandoned high-rise building. Although it looked dilapidated, it was the only option at the moment. She used her spatial ability, teleporting several times to the foot of the building, and then quickly rushed inside.
A pungent, decaying odor permeated the building, and dust swirled in the dim light. Su Yao had no time to adjust to the environment; she quickly climbed the stairs. When she reached the top floor, the unidentified flying object was already nearby. It was a huge metal disc, emitting an eerie blue light, and covered with numerous cannon-like devices that were constantly scanning the surroundings.
Su Yao held her breath, using her spatial abilities to conceal her presence. However, the metal disc seemed to sense something and slowly approached the tall building. Just when Su Yao thought she was about to be discovered, the metal disc suddenly changed direction and flew off in another direction. Su Yao breathed a sigh of relief, but she knew she couldn't stay here any longer and had to return to the safe house as soon as possible.
After a difficult journey, the safe house finally came into view. Su Yao deactivated the safe house's protective and warning devices and entered. Her family members, seeing her return safely, excitedly surrounded her. Su Yao took out the energy core, and everyone's eyes shone with hope upon seeing these precious energy resources.
With ample energy, the safe house's facilities could operate more efficiently. Su Yao used the preservation space to reorganize some perishable food items, ensuring their longevity in the apocalypse. At the same time, she began studying the military maps and classified documents she had brought back from the military base.
The document mentioned a secret warehouse located deep in the mountains, storing a large amount of high-tech equipment and medical supplies. This was a huge temptation for them, but the environment deep in the mountains was complex and potentially more dangerous. After discussing it with her family, Su Yao decided to explore it anyway.
During the preparation process, Su Yao used the system to further enhance her abilities. She attempted to combine her spatial abilities with her new fusion abilities to create more powerful offensive and defensive capabilities. After several days of training, Su Yao felt a significant improvement in her strength.
As they set off for the deep mountains, the frigid weather outside intensified. Su Yao used her special ability to create a warm shield around them, protecting her family as they journeyed. Along the way, they encountered fierce blizzards and small groups of mutated beasts, but they overcame them all.
As they approached the deep mountain area, the system warned: "There is a powerful energy magnetic field interference ahead; supernatural abilities and electronic devices may be affected." Su Yao frowned slightly. She told her family to stop temporarily and went ahead to investigate. Sure enough, the further they went, the more difficult it became to use their supernatural abilities, and the system's functions were also limited.
Just then, a group of people wearing strange protective suits rushed out of the woods. Wielding weapons that gleamed with a cold light, they attacked Su Yao without a word. Su Yao could only rely on her exceptional physical abilities to dodge the attacks while simultaneously trying to reactivate her powers. During her evasion, Su Yao noticed a peculiar symbol on their protective suits, seemingly linking them to a faction mentioned in the classified documents.
Su Yao seized the opportunity and successfully unleashed a spatial blade, repelling the enemy before her. But she knew this was only the beginning; more dangers awaited them around the secret warehouse deep in the mountains. However, for the sake of those precious supplies and for her family's better survival in the apocalypse, she had no intention of backing down, her eyes resolute as she led her family deeper into the mountains.
