In early July, most majors at East China University of Political Science and Law had not yet finished their courses, and many students were still attending classes when the apocalypse broke out.
Suddenly, a shocking change occurs: former classmates mutate into zombies, and the school building becomes a living hell.
Most of the students who escaped the disaster because they didn't have classes were trapped in apartment buildings and other areas, unable to escape.
In Girls' Dormitory Building 7, the survivors who had not mutated or perished in the apocalypse were now hiding in their dormitories, trembling with fear.
The zombies inside the apartment were mostly drawn to the commotion elsewhere.
Some jumped directly off the apartment building, while others were trapped in their closed dorm rooms, struggling against the doors.
In dormitory 414, two roommates from other majors had gone to class, leaving only Ning Chuxia and Zheng Lan, who were classmates in their third year.
Neither of them turned into zombies at the beginning of the outbreak, and they witnessed firsthand the scene outside the corridor where classmates who had mutated into zombies were killing other students.
While the zombies were busy devouring flesh and ignoring the two of them, they panicked and fled back to their dormitory, locking both the dormitory and balcony doors before retreating to the balcony.
Throughout the apartment and on campus, the screams of survivors and the excited roars of zombies could be heard everywhere, continuing for several hours without subsiding.
At this moment, Zheng Lan, with a strong physique, was standing on the balcony wall of dormitory 414, wearing a black and white casual gym outfit. Her long black hair, just reaching her shoulders, was tied in a single ponytail.
His face, now calm and slightly heroic, had clearly recovered from the panic.
Ning Chuxia wore a white long-sleeved shirt on her upper body and a black pencil skirt on her lower body, with her long, straight, black hair hanging down naturally.
Even though several hours had passed, the scene of the zombie attacking her classmate still kept replaying in her mind. She sat on the ground, burying her head in her arms and thighs.
Zheng Lan leaned over and hugged Ning Chuxia, who was still not calm and whose body was trembling from time to time, and gently patted her back.
Around 2 PM, accompanied by a sharp pain in her head, Ning Chuxia awakened her supernatural ability.
Her originally jet-black hair turned white from the roots and quickly spread to the entire head!
Fine white downy hairs can be seen on the skin not covered by clothing, and the pupils have become transparent, appearing slightly red against the backdrop of blood in the eyeballs.
Two long rabbit ears stood up high, but there was no obvious change on the face.
The two were extremely surprised by this. Zheng Lan looked at Ning Chuxia's changed appearance and felt familiar with her without any awkwardness.
They even started to coil around Ning Chuxia's transformed rabbit head and ears.
Ning Chuxia did not feel any discomfort after transforming; on the contrary, she felt that her physical fitness had been greatly enhanced.
Although there wasn't much space to move around on the balcony at that moment, I could still feel the explosive power in my legs!
After the initial surprise, almost instinctively, with a thought from Ning Chuxia, the downy hair on her body disappeared, and her pupils and ears returned to normal.
However, her originally jet-black and smooth long hair remained pure white after the transformation.
"Why did it turn back? Let me touch it again~"
After a brief, quiet commotion, they could hear the sounds of zombies trapped in their dorm rooms attacking the door, and the occasional screams and roars echoing throughout the campus.
The two gradually quieted down and fell silent again.
After a long silence, Ning Chuxia broke the stillness and asked Zheng Lan:
"Do you think we'll die?"
The students outside have all turned into monsters.
Her voice, tinged with a hint of tears, was pitiful.
"Don't be afraid, early summer, I will protect you!"
Zheng Lan answered without hesitation, her hands, which were taut with nervousness, embracing Ning Chuxia's slightly trembling body.
"It feels like a zombie virus outbreak, the end of the world, that's how it's written in novels!"
"The monsters that the students outside have turned into are just like the zombies in the movies, and the changes you just made seem like you've awakened some kind of superpower!"
"Although I haven't awakened any special abilities yet, I will do everything in my power to protect you!"
"I wonder what kind of superpower I will awaken?"
"Don't become as cute as Chu Xia, and not brave enough!"
"Once I awaken my superpowers, I'll take you to a safe place!"
"No zombies, no danger, just the two of us, Chu Xia and I, hehe!"
Zheng Lan kept talking in Ning Chuxia's ear to ease Ning Chuxia's nervousness.
Seeing that Ning Chuxia still seemed somewhat uneasy, she added:
"Transform again so I can touch it~"
As he spoke, he placed his hands on Ning Chuxia's rather large chest.
"Stop fooling around~"
Feeling much better, she murmured in a voice only she could hear:
"Thank you, Alan."
"You're always so good to me!"
Around 5 p.m., after a sharp pain in her head, Zheng Lan also awakened her supernatural abilities.
Zheng Lan felt as if inexhaustible strength was surging within her, and she could easily lift Ning Chuxia, who was 170 cm tall and weighed about 110 catties, with one hand.
"This superpower is so cool!"
I think I'm starting to like this post-apocalyptic world!
Seeing Ning Chuxia completely unable to resist in his arms, Zheng Lanying's face was filled with satisfaction.
"Hiding like this isn't a solution; we need to find a way to escape!"
Seeing that Ning Chuxia had almost recovered, Zheng Lan offered her suggestions.
"I don't know if the zombie crisis is only happening in schools or if it's happening all over the world!"
I checked my phone this morning and it had no signal. I wonder if my family is alright!
As expected, upon hearing Zheng Lan mention her relatives, Ning Chuxia's attention shifted to her family, and she became somewhat anxious.
Looking at Ning Chuxia, who had already perked up a bit, Zheng Lan said:
"How about we work together to clear out all the zombies in the apartment, and then figure out how to go back to our families?"
"You just need to lure them in, I'll take care of the kills!"
Not everyone has nerves as thick as Zheng Lan's.
Let alone girls, even boys would generally think of hiding and escaping when faced with a zombie-infested apocalypse!
Ning Chuxia was usually a smart girl who was good at analyzing and getting straight to the point.
But the most genuine reaction of ordinary people in the post-apocalyptic world is to be terrified by witnessing a crime scene firsthand and then display a submissive, feminine demeanor.
After a whole day of guidance from Zheng Lan, Ning Chuxia accepted the reality of the impending apocalyptic zombie crisis.
Having regained some of his former self, he decided to work with Zheng Lan to clear out the zombies in the apartment and escape.
At this moment in the apartment, most of the zombies, in the early stages of their mutation, chased after the panicked students and were drawn away by the noises coming from other places.
Only a small number of zombies remained, trapped inside the dormitory and unable to escape.
The sky remained overcast, providing dim light; the dormitory building had already lost power in the afternoon.
The campus's backup power was being used at the moment, and the emergency lights in the apartment building corridors were flashing, creating a slightly eerie atmosphere.
