In the apocalypse, my weapons can evolve infinitely.

After everyone was safely inside the house

Fang Zhihua's eyes reddened again, and with glistening tears, she threw herself into Jiang Xun's arms once more.

"Uncle, where have you been? Why are you only coming back now?"

She cried as she sobbed as she spoke to Jiang Xun.

Fang Yurou, standing to the side, seemed to have forgotten her own struggles from yesterday and looked at Jiang Xun with the same worried gaze.

Jiang Xun shook his head upon seeing this.

"I was already being watched by Brother Hu when I was taking Yu Rou away yesterday. I was in a dilemma, so I had to deal with him all night."

Upon hearing Jiang Xun's words, the two women's eyes revealed expressions of terror.

"What should we do? Tiger is still upstairs; this building is far too dangerous."

"Jiang Xun, let's go, let's leave this place together."

They are now terrified of Tiger.

However, Jiang Xun shook his head.

Leaving is easier said than done.

He turned to look at Yang Xiaoai, who had already closed the door and was standing quietly to the side.

"Xiao Ai, I want to know what happened yesterday."

What happened yesterday? What happened yesterday?

Upon hearing Jiang Xun's words, Fang Yurou and Fang Zhihua were both filled with immense confusion.

However, Yang Xiaoai stepped forward and said directly:

"Sir, I came straight in after you went upstairs."

"About 40 minutes later, Miss Zhihua climbed down the rope to the window, and I brought her in."

"Then came Miss Yu Rou, but the rope broke later. Fortunately, Miss Zhi Hua and I grabbed the other end of the rope. Although it was dangerous, we managed to pull her back together."

After hearing this, Jiang Xun finally understood why Fang Yurou had survived.

Yang Xiaoai is really reliable.

"After the two young ladies came in, I began to wait for the master's return, but unexpectedly, something changed up ahead of us."

"An unexpected turn of events? What unexpected turn of events?"

"A roar came from the top floor. Although the sound was very much like an animal's, I was certain it was a human's."

"After the roar ended, there was little movement for a long time, about an hour later."

"Then a raging fire broke out above."

This turn of events was something Jiang Xun hadn't anticipated.

The final flame was probably lit by Tiger himself in utter despair.

But who made that "roar"?

"Besides that, is there anything else unusual?"

Jiang Xun asked again, and everyone's eyes fell on Yang Xiaoai once more.

Yang Xiaoai pondered for a moment after hearing this, and then nodded again.

"Sir, ever since this incident, I have been keeping a close eye on how things are developing, so every half hour I listen to what is happening outside through the crack in the door."

"It was a very faint sound, though very faint, but still clearly audible. It was the scream of someone in great pain."

"The sound lasted for more than an hour, followed by a half-hour period of silence."

"Half an hour later, the screams rang out again, but unlike before, this time the screams were not only from the living, but also from the monster."

"This time the sound lasted even longer, a full two hours,"

"And then there was no sound at all until now."

Hearing Yang Xiaoai's answer, not only was Jiang Xun shocked, but Fang Yurou and Fang Zhihua were also incredibly shocked.

The woman in front of me was dressed plainly, her long hair almost completely covering her face.

After saving himself last night, he didn't sleep a wink all night.

She stayed right in front of him, listening attentively and trying to gather as much useful information as possible.

Just so I can help Jiang Xun today?

At this moment, even though they were both women, even though they both lived in the apocalypse,

They also had to admit that they were far inferior to the woman in front of them.

Seeing this, Jiang Xun stepped forward and patted Yang Xiaoai on the shoulder.

"Xiao Ai, you must be exhausted from not sleeping all night. Now that I'm back, you should go and get some rest."

Upon hearing this, Yang Xiaoai smiled and shook her head.

She could tell that her information had indeed helped Jiang Xun, so she was very satisfied.

"It's alright, sir. I'm not sleepy. Are you hungry? What would you like to eat?"

Jiang Xun originally wanted to force the other party to rest, but since the other party brought up the issue of eating, he could no longer insist.

After all, even if he wasn't hungry, the women in front of him should be.

Therefore,

Jiang Xun reached out and took out some vegetables, fruits and fresh meat from his spatial storage, and then handed them to Yang Xiaoai.

"Alright, everyone must be hungry after such a long time, so I'll leave it to you."

Yang Xiaoai smiled and accepted the food.

"No trouble at all, sir."

She took the food Jiang Xun gave her, then turned and left the scene without making any comment to Fang Yurou or Fang Zhihua.

However, this suddenly gave Fang Yurou a strong sense of crisis.

She glanced at her daughter, who was still nestled in Jiang Xun's arms, and then at Yang Xiaoai, who had gone off to prepare the meal. She felt a deep sense of grievance.

In an instant, her eyes filled with tears.

Jiang Xun was unaware of what the other person was thinking and assumed that she minded him holding the other person's daughter.

So he quickly got up and forcibly pried Fang Zhihua, who was tightly hugging him, apart.

"Uh... You've all been worried all night, go and rest first. Xiao Ai will call you after she finishes making breakfast."

"And I... I need to take a shower first, I'm all sweaty and smelly."

After he finished speaking, he rushed straight towards the bathroom, not daring to look the two of them in the eye the entire time.

With a "thump," the door closed, and Jiang Xun finally let out a long sigh of relief.

The situation is really quite chaotic right now.

In fact, he could have easily done what the protagonist in a post-apocalyptic novel did: used food and survival to subdue the two of them and then keep them by his side.

But... what good would that do?

Besides their bodies, what else can you get?

Will you gain their suspicion? Their resentment? Or their potential defection at any moment?

He was unwilling to do so, or rather, he disdained to do so.

He took off his clothes, which were soaked with sweat and almost crystallized.

Then he reached out and turned on the shower in the bathroom.

Under the showerhead, countless water droplets cascaded over his body, washing away all his fatigue.

Jiang Xun looked up at the showerhead above her head, a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

Okay, okay, now everything's all set.

At this moment, he was absolutely certain that another mutated zombie had appeared in their building.

Whether it was the 12th and 13th floors that were smashed to pieces, Tiger being forced to set fire to defend himself, or the inexplicable roar that Xiao Ai heard at the end,

They must all have originated from this mutated zombie.

So now things are clear: there is a mutated giant sphere zombie in the ground outside the building, and there is an unknown mutated zombie inside the building.

This perfectly corresponds to my system tasks: [The Beginning of the Extraordinary] and [Unleashing Potential].

Sometimes he didn't even know if the monster appeared because of a system task.

It was because the system anticipated the appearance of the monster that it issued the corresponding system task.

But... isn't this system overestimating itself by giving itself two such powerful opponents to fight?

Isn't it afraid of actually being killed by zombies?

He chuckled to himself and reached out to turn off the shower, just as he was about to lather himself with shower gel.

With a crisp "click," the bathroom door... actually opened.
