After successfully obtaining the Zombie King's crystal core, Su Yao and her family returned to the safe house and began secluded cultivation to absorb its energy. Using the system's precise guidance, Su Yao slowly channeled the crystal core's energy into her body, continuously pushing her limits in her supernatural abilities.
After several days of dedicated training, Su Yao's supernatural abilities experienced a new breakthrough. She discovered that she could not only control her ice, wind, and fire abilities more freely, but also unexpectedly awakened a mysterious mental ability. This ability allowed her to sense the emotional fluctuations of the creatures around her, and even briefly control the actions of some low-level zombies.
After absorbing the crystal core, the father's power-type ability underwent a qualitative change. He could compress his power into a materialized shield, which could not only defend but also deflect enemy attacks. The mother's healing ability also advanced to a new level; she could communicate with plants and use their life force to enhance her healing effects. Around the safe house, the mother cultivated a patch of mutated plants with healing properties. These plants not only provided continuous healing for the family but also released a fragrant aroma that repelled the surrounding zombies.
However, as the apocalypse progressed, Su Yao realized that her family alone could not cope with the increasingly complex situation. Using the system's information gathering capabilities, she discovered several teams of superhumans operating within the city's ruins. Some of these teams excelled in attack, while others were skilled in defense or reconnaissance.
Su Yao decided to take the initiative and seek opportunities for alliance cooperation. She and her parents carefully traversed the zombie-infested streets and arrived at the stronghold of a large group of superhumans. The leader of this group was a middle-aged man named Zhao Gang, who possessed powerful lightning-based superpowers and was known for his generosity but also considerable caution.
After Su Yao explained her purpose, Zhao Gang did not immediately agree, but instead presented her with a series of tests. He demanded that Su Yao and her family assist their team in clearing a factory area overrun by mutated creatures. Su Yao knew this was an opportunity to demonstrate her abilities and agreed without hesitation.
During the battle at the factory, Su Yao's family fully utilized their respective supernatural abilities. Su Yao used her psychic abilities to disrupt the command system of the mutated creatures, throwing them into chaos. Her father stood at the front, withstanding the attacks of the mutated creatures and protecting his teammates behind him with a power shield. Her mother used plants to heal the injured team members from the rear and applied buffs to them.
After a fierce battle, Su Yao's family successfully helped Zhao Gang's team clear out the factory. Zhao Gang acknowledged their capabilities and agreed to form an alliance with Su Yao's family. After the alliance was established, they shared resources and information, and jointly formulated defense and attack plans.
During a large-scale operation by the Alliance, they learned that a mysterious energy source was hidden deep beneath the city. This energy source seemed to be related to the origins of the apocalypse and was guarded by many powerful mutated creatures and ancient zombies.
After discussing with the alliance members, Su Yao decided to explore deeper underground. They slowly made their way through the dark and damp tunnels, remaining constantly vigilant for any potential dangers. As they approached the energy source, a powerful pressure washed over them, and everyone used their special abilities to resist it.
Suddenly, a colossal shadow beast leaped from the darkness, its body like a cloud of black smoke, capable of devouring any approaching supernatural attacks. Su Yao quickly regained her composure, using her mental abilities to delve into the beast's consciousness, attempting to find its weakness. Simultaneously, her father and other offensive supernatural beings, including Zhao Gang, launched a full-scale attack to draw the beast's attention. Her mother, meanwhile, led the healing supernatural beings from the rear to ensure the team's survival.
Through her mental exploration, Su Yao discovered that the behemoth's core was located in the center of its forehead. She commanded a ranged attacker to concentrate their firepower on the behemoth's forehead. After a fierce and arduous battle, the Shadow Behemoth was finally defeated, dissipating into a cloud of energy.
The group continued deeper and finally found the mysterious energy source. It was a huge energy crystal, radiating dazzling light. Through system analysis, Su Yao discovered that this crystal contained energy powerful enough to change the entire post-apocalyptic landscape. If used properly, it might be able to find a way to restore life to the world. However, how to safely obtain and utilize this energy would become a new challenge for Su Yao and her alliance.
