I chose the safe house, and the Human Alliance regretted it.

Chapter 16 Talent Ability Advancement

"Upgrade!" As Wang Wei finished speaking, his innate ability changed.

Safe House (Growth Type)

Rating: SSS

Effect: Activating the innate ability, it can create an absolute safety zone within an area of 200 square meters. Within the safe zone, the host is in an absolutely invincible state.

Limitations: Safe houses cannot be moved in real time; the lifespan of a safe house is 4 days; and the ability can be used every 3 day.

Details: Upgrade requires 2 safety points.

Wang Wei's pupils contracted!

The safe house's area has been expanded to 200 square meters, and its duration has been extended to four days!

"Does this mean my safe house's area can expand indefinitely?"

Wang Wei's heart trembled violently.

However, Wang Wei quickly calmed down.

Each upgrade requires a security point.

He needs to figure out how to obtain safe points as soon as possible!

However, the notification was because he survived the first day of the cataclysm and thus gained 1 safety point.

Does this mean that as long as he survives the catastrophe, he can continuously gain safe points?

This discovery instantly excited Wang Wei.

He was originally only allowed to hide within a 100-square-meter area of the safe house.

Now it seems that this limitation can be broken!

The 200-square-meter safety zone not only completely covers Wang Weixin's home, but also has extra space!

Just as Wang Wei was about to rest, another message popped up on his phone:

"Urgent Notice: As notified by the Emergency Management Bureau, due to unexplained weather conditions, everyone is required to stay home and avoid going out unless absolutely necessary."

"It seems the authorities are also figuring things out little by little."

A chill ran through Wang Wei as he read the text message.

"Let's figure it out slowly, and see how much we'll have to pay this time to understand that these unusual celestial phenomena are just the prelude to disaster..."

He had already stockpiled enough supplies and had no worries at all.

But others weren't so lucky.

The next morning, the sky was still reddish-yellow, and a gentle breeze was still blowing outside, making everything seem harmless.

But only when you stand in the wind will you discover that there are some unseen dangers hidden in this breeze—wind blades!

Wang Wei quickly washed up and, as usual, took out his phone to check messages.

The internet is in complete chaos right now.

Some surveillance footage shows numerous wild animal carcasses outside the city.

Their deaths were exceptionally gruesome, seemingly all of them dismembered by sharp weapons!

Panic quickly spread across the internet.

However, some of these idiots remain blindly optimistic.

"I was notified to self-isolate at home last night. Does that mean I don't have to go to work?"

"If I don't work, do I still have to pay the mortgage?"

"Did they say how long the stay-at-home order would last? I didn't prepare much food."

"Are you still offering delivery?"

"No, I need to go to the supermarket to buy some."

"You still dare to go out?"

"........."

Wang Wei leisurely read through the various comments. In fact, a few days before the disaster, if one was bold enough to arm oneself, it would still be possible to go out.

In the early stages, the wind blades only attack living beings.

You can avoid wind blade attacks by hiding inside buildings, cars, or completely covering yourself.

But only he knows this.

However, Wang Wei would not reveal these details.

Just as Wang Wei was browsing information online, a message suddenly came in on WeChat.

Qian Mengxun: "Wang Wei, did you know something beforehand, which is why you purchased so many supplies?"

Wang Wei was somewhat surprised; this gold-digging woman did have some brains to think of this.

Immediately afterwards, Qian Mengxun sent another message:

"Could you share some with me? There's nothing to eat anymore."

Wang Wei thought for a moment and sent a message:

"Okay, come and pick it up."

If Qian Mengxun were to arrive at this moment, he would be badly injured, if not killed.

"Can you bring it to me? I'll not call the police."

Looking at the message Qian Mengxun sent, Wang Wei decisively refused: "You should call the police."

Qian Mengxun: "You'll regret this!"

Wang Wei never expected that this woman would dare to threaten him at this time!

Wang Wei was too lazy to pay attention to her anymore, so he put down his phone and started preparing breakfast for himself.

But when Wang Wei finished preparing the food and picked up his phone again, there were already dozens of new messages on WeChat.

"What's going on?" Wang Wei asked, opening the message with a puzzled look.

"Wang Wei, you prepared supplies in advance; did you know something inside?"

"Brother Wang, what exactly happened?"

"Brother Wang, could you give me some of your supplies?"

"............"

Former colleagues, old classmates, casual acquaintances, and even people I haven't spoken to in ages all jumped out.

The residents' group chat for the Happiness Community was flooded with mentions of him.

Wang Wei looked at the messages, including a request for help from Zhao Lie.

"These people..." Wang Wei sneered. They really do always think of him when something happens.

In his previous life, these people seemed to live comfortably under his protection.

But the result?

When the league sent them to their deaths, not only did no one stand up, but they were even more eager than outsiders.

Wang Wei patiently chatted with several people privately before finally figuring out the reason.

It's that gold-digging woman, Qian Mengxun, causing trouble again!

She compiled his loan fraud and hoarding of goods into a nine-grid image, accompanied by a short essay titled "Warning from an insider: Selfish hoarding without regard for others' lives," posted it on her WeChat Moments, and also sent it to private messages to spread the word.

"Since you're so eager to see..."

Wang Wei got up, raised his phone, and slowly paced around the room taking pictures.

The camera pans across:

Imported steaks, premium steaks, canned goods, rice, flour, and cooking oil piled up like small mountains;

Three freezers were crammed with ready-to-eat meals;

Cases of Moutai, Lafite, and high-end mineral water;

And in the corner were a generator, a water purifier, a first-aid kit, and winter clothing...

After recording, he took a selfie from the most relaxed angle, with the room full of supplies in the background, and then posted it on his WeChat Moments.

With text:

"I managed to stock up on some small items, enough to last a few months. Everyone, hang in there and survive! (smile)"

Instantly, the WeChat Moments exploded.

"Holy crap, Brother Wang, you've stockpiled so much?"

"Brother Wang, can I have some? I'll buy some."

"......"

With nothing else to do, Wang Wei decided to tease these people and replied to each of them via private message.

"For viewing only, not for sale or given away."

A moment later, Zhao Lie sent another message: "Brother Wang, are you really not going to give up our friendship?"

"Do you think I have any connection with you?" Wang Wei sneered. "Do you think I don't know what you've been saying about me behind my back?"

Zhao Lie: "Wang Wei, aren't you afraid of attracting hatred by showing off like this?"

Showing off and trying to incite hatred?

Wang Wei couldn't help but sneer.

So what if it is?

Who can do anything about him?

Just as Wang Wei was mocking these people, his phone received another official message:

"Emergency experiments have verified that the abnormal weather only harms exposed living organisms. Staying indoors or in a vehicle will prevent harm. Emergency supplies have been organized and distributed; please be patient and maintain order."

"You figured it out?" Wang Wei was somewhat surprised.

The official response was quite efficient.

Unfortunately, this pattern only applies to the first three days.

Three days later, the wind blades will indiscriminately attack all objects.

Fragile houses and vehicles will be torn to shreds.

That was when it truly became hell on earth.

Just then, Wang Wei's phone rang again:

Zhao Lie: You idiot, see? The official supplies are being distributed. Do you think I really need your stuff?

Qian Mengxun: I've already called the police. You'll be going to jail!

A former colleague: "Hilarious! The number one person to use loans to hoard goods, and the government gave it to him for free!"

The residents' group chat was flooded with mockery:

"Haha, that's hilarious!"
