Apocalypse: No rebirth! Time to upgrade the sewers!

Three crystals, each the size of a pigeon egg and emitting a faint red light, appeared out of thin air on the open ground in front of them.

Even after Ye Chen's death, Song Qing didn't forget to loot the bag.

"Seven more to go."

Song Qing muttered to himself.

Once he collects ten, he can upgrade his ability user level to the second tier.

After returning the three precious red crystals to his spatial storage, Song Qing prepared to test his newly acquired abilities.

Several iron balls and a fruit knife appeared in front of him.

Spatial abilities—there are simply too many directions for developing this ability.

We must master it as soon as possible.

He picked up the fruit knife.

With a thought, an invisible force covered the blade.

A faint blue halo instantly appeared on the blade.

Song Qing gently sliced ​​off one of the iron balls.

There was no resistance whatsoever.

It's like cutting butter with a hot knife—incredibly smooth.

He picked up the two halves of the iron ball that had been cut open and examined them closely.

The cut is smooth and even, like a mirror.

Is this the Space Slash?

With just a little bit of spatial power added, an ordinary fruit knife became so sharp.

He remembered Ye Chen's words.

This guy boasts about his spatial power, claiming he can cut through space.

In retrospect, this may not have been an exaggeration.

Song Qing put down the iron ball and aimed at the second one.

This time, he didn't use a knife.

He stretched out his hand and aimed it at the iron ball.

compression!

A thought flashed through my mind.

The air around the iron ball began to distort.

Immediately afterwards, that space began to collapse and compress!

In less than a second, the iron ball compressed into a black cube the size of a coin.

Song Qing picked it up.

Very heavy.

This small cube weighs the same as before it was compressed.

Only its size has been compressed to the extreme.

What a terrifying ability.

If this tactic were used on a person...

Song Chang dared not imagine that scene.

He turned his gaze to the last iron ball.

He concentrated all his spatial power and aimed it at the center of the iron ball.

next second.

The perfectly intact iron ball was suddenly missing a piece.

A square notch appeared in the center of the iron ball.

The location where they disappeared has entered the supernatural space.

If used for a sneak attack, this move could be aimed directly at the enemy's head or heart...

That would be the decisive blow!

There's absolutely no way to defend against it!

However, after using the ability three times in a row, a feeling of fatigue washed over him.

Ye Chen is right.

While the power of space is immense, it also consumes a huge amount of energy.

Song Qing finally understood

It's not that Ye Chen is incapable.

This ability is just too taxing.

After a short rest

Song Qing had a sudden thought.

Entering another dimension!

A strong sense of weightlessness enveloped him.

The next second, he appeared in a strange place.

There is no sky, no earth, only endless nothingness.

Countless enormous shipping containers were piled up into small mountains, suspended in this void.

He entered another dimension.

But the moment he entered, an immense drain began.

The energy in my body is being depleted at an extremely rapid rate!

His subconscious told him that the energy expenditure here was enormous.

No wonder Ye Chen never hides in his own space.

Song Qing didn't dare linger and returned to the shelter in an instant.

"call……"

He exhaled softly.

Song Qing doesn't plan to go in for the time being.

The consumption is simply too great.

He simply can't hold on now.

Just then, footsteps came from the stairs.

Gu Ya quickly walked downstairs.

"Honey! Look at this!"

Song Qing stood up.

"What's wrong, Xiaoya?"

Gu Ya handed over her phone.

"Look at this, what is it?"

Song Qing took the phone.

It's Wang Jie's phone.

Previously, in order to provoke Ye Chen in the group, he used Wang Jie's phone to join the community's owners' group.

After that, Wang Jie never left the group.

A video is playing on the screen.

The video footage was very shaky, and the camera zoomed out very far.

The filming location was likely in a resident's home in a high-rise building.

The video focuses on the street in the distance outside the residential area.

It was a colossal object, slowly moving.

He looks very much like a white zombie.

It looks to be at least seven or eight meters tall.

Its belly was swollen like a huge ball of flesh, and on the surface of that ball of flesh grew dozens of human arms and legs.

Those limbs helped him crawl.

The monster's head was also unusually large, almost disproportionate.

Although the monster in the video didn't come towards the residential area, Song Qing estimated the distance.

It's at most 700 meters.

too close.

Song Qing gasped.

He had never seen such a bizarre monster.

What exactly is this thing?

Can white zombies also evolve?

He knew that mutated organisms could evolve.

Song Qing looked up and saw Wang Jie and Bai Ruolin coming down the stairs.

"Honey... what... what is that...?"

Wang Jie said.

Song Qing shook his head.

"I don't know what it is either."

His brain was working at lightning speed.

This monster is too close to the shelter and is a huge potential threat.

We must investigate this thoroughly.

What if I go out one day and this monster happens to wander over here?

I'll go check it out later.

Song Qing made a decision.

Wang Jie was about to speak as if by conditioned reflex.

With his experience, Song reached out and gently covered her soft lips.

"rest assured"

"I can teleport or become invisible, I'll be fine."

"Just going to check things out."

Hearing that Song Qing had the abilities of teleportation and invisibility, Wang Jie's worries were somewhat relieved.

Just then, Gu Ya suddenly spoke up.

"Honey, can I come with you?"

Song Qing recalled what Ye Chen had said before he died.

Ye Chen said that in his previous life, Gu Ya was a very powerful superhuman.

An existence that even he had to look up to.

Although I don't know if what Ye Chen said is true or false.

But there was one thing Song Qing was very clear about.

You can't grow towering trees in a greenhouse.

Overprotection will only stifle her potential.

"it is good."

Song Qing nodded in agreement.

"I'll take you with me."

A smile bloomed on Gu Ya's face.

Bai Ruolin, who was standing nearby, also came over when she saw this.

"Brother Song, I want to go too! I can help! My barrier is really powerful!"

Before Song Qing could speak, Wang Jie grabbed her daughter's ear.

"Where are you going! To cause trouble?"

"Ouch! Mom! That hurts! Be gentle!"

Bai Ruolin immediately let out an exaggerated scream.

Song Qing smiled as she looked at the lively mother and daughter.

He looked at Bai Ruolin.

"You and your mother stay at home."

"Your job is to protect your mother and keep an eye on the house, understand?"

Bai Ruolin nodded understandingly.

"Okay... then Brother Song, Sister Gu Ya, you two must be careful."

"rest assured."

Song Qing patted the little girl's head.

He turned to Wang Jie and said.

"Wang Jie, Gu Ya and I will be back in a bit."

Wang Jie knew she couldn't persuade him otherwise, so she could only nod.

"Husband, Xiaoya, please be careful."

"Um."

Song Qing responded and then took Gu Ya's hand.

A thought suddenly occurred to him.

An invisible sense of distortion instantly enveloped the two of them.

next second.

The two figures vanished into thin air from the spot.

……

Song Qing and Gu Ya appeared on the rooftop of a tall building.

We are about 400 meters away from where that giant monster is.

It is an excellent vantage point.

Gu Ya was still a little uncomfortable and her face turned pale.

Song Qing caught her in time.

"Are you alright?"

Gu Ya shook her head, took a deep breath, and quickly got used to it.

Gu Ya also looked at the enormous thing in the distance.

Seeing it with your own eyes is far more shocking than seeing it on a mobile phone screen.

The monster was like a Frankenstein's monster made up of countless corpses stitched together, sending chills down one's spine.

"What...what is this thing?"

Song Qing did not answer.

His attention was completely focused on the monster.

The monster seemed to have no clear goal and was just wandering around aimlessly.
