The Su family was making intensive preparations in the safe house, and their daily training never slacked off. Su Yao kept a close eye on the passing of time; the high temperature was like a ferocious beast, relentlessly devouring the world, and the two-month deadline was drawing ever closer.
During training breaks, Su Yao began explaining the mysteries of crystal cores to her parents in detail, as well as how to obtain them more effectively. "Mom and Dad, crystal cores are the core of energy within zombies and the key to improving our abilities. However, the energy contained in the crystal cores varies depending on the level of the zombie. When the time comes, we should prioritize dealing with the relatively weaker zombies and obtaining their crystal cores to enhance our own strength, so that we can be more confident in facing stronger dangers."
The parents listened attentively, their eyes filled with determination and resolve. The father said, "Yaoyao, we understand. We will definitely train hard and won't hold you back."
As time went on, both parents experienced significant improvements in their physical abilities and supernatural perception. The mother went from only being able to do a few squats at first to now being able to complete more than twenty in one go, with increasingly precise movements; the father's control over energy during meditation also became more proficient, and he could occasionally unleash a weak energy shield.
However, danger always strikes unexpectedly. One day, Su Yao discovered through system monitoring that a pack of mutated wolves had appeared near the safe house. These wolves were agile, with fierce red eyes, and their fur blazed like flames under the intense heat.
"Mom and Dad, there are mutated wolves approaching. Stay inside and don't come out. I'll go deal with them." Su Yao grabbed her weapon and rushed out of the safe house.
As soon as Su Yao stepped outside, the wolves pounced on her like arrows released from a bow. A supernatural whip appeared in her hand, its tip crackling with electricity. With a flick of the whip, an arc of electricity shot towards the lead wolf, which nimbly leaped up, dodging the attack.
Su Yao then unleashed a set of whip techniques. The long whip in her hand moved like a nimble snake, drawing graceful arcs in the air as she engaged in a fierce battle with the wolves. However, the wolves were well-coordinated; they scattered and attacked Su Yao from different directions, leaving her somewhat overwhelmed.
During the battle, a wolf seized the opportunity and pounced on Su Yao from behind. Su Yao sensed the danger, quickly crouched down, turned around, wrapped her long whip around the wolf's neck, and swung it forcefully, throwing the wolf away.
While Su Yao was locked in a fierce battle with the wolves, her parents inside the safe house were also busy. Following Su Yao's previous instructions, they set up defensive traps inside the house, preparing to give the wolves a good beating if they broke through Su Yao's defenses.
Su Yao knew this couldn't go on; she had to end this quickly. She concentrated her power on her long whip, which instantly shone brightly. With a roar, she unleashed a move called "Whispering Shadows," transforming the whip into countless shadows that swept towards the wolves like a storm. The wolves were struck down by this powerful attack, howling in agony.
Taking advantage of the moment, Su Yao launched a fatal attack, her long whip striking each wolf precisely in its vital points, instantly silencing them. Exhausted and panting heavily, she dragged her weary body back to the safe house.
"Yaoyao, are you alright?" Her mother asked, looking at her with concern.
Su Yao shook her head: "I'm fine, it's just that the dangers outside are increasing, and we don't have much time left."
In the days that followed, Su Yao not only intensified her own training but also increased the intensity of her parents' training. She took out some special potions from her spatial storage, potions that could help improve physical fitness and the speed at which supernatural abilities awakened.
After taking the medication, the training effects on the parents became more pronounced. Finally, during a meditation training session, the mother was the first to awaken her special ability. Her ability is healing-based; although currently weak, it is undoubtedly a precious safeguard in this apocalyptic world.
"Yaoyao, I can feel it! I have superpowers!" her mother exclaimed excitedly.
Su Yao was also happy for her mother: "Mom, that's wonderful. Your special ability will be able to heal us in battle, greatly increasing our chances of survival."
With the mother's supernatural abilities awakening, the father was also encouraged and trained even harder. Meanwhile, Su Yao continued to research strategies to deal with the acid rain crisis, searching the system for various information about zombies and mutated creatures, trying to find more ways to subdue them.
Days passed, and the time for the acid rain to arrive drew ever closer. In their safe house, Su Yao's family trained intensely while remaining constantly vigilant against external dangers. They knew an even more brutal battle was imminent, and they had to face it with their strongest will, protecting each other in this scorching apocalypse and striving to forge a path to survival.
