You say the cataclysm only comes after you've cleared the entire dungeon?

Liu Wu knocked on several doors, but still couldn't get the fever reducer.

It should be said that, given that most people are experiencing high fevers these days, no one is willing to share the few antipyretics they have at home.

Finally, Liu Wu arrived at the door of 3703.

Looking at the heavy, sturdy steel door in front of him, his heart sank.

He had met the girl who lived there a few times before in the elevator. She was about 26 or 27 years old and dressed very casually.

He mysteriously disappeared six months ago, and the police came to his door to investigate several times.

But since it was none of my business, and with the mindset of "better to avoid trouble," I cooperated with the police a few times for questioning and then didn't pay much attention to it.

Unexpectedly, she came back a few days ago, and even installed this explosion-proof steel door.

It clearly suggests a degree of detachment from worldly affairs.

Thinking of his daughter who was bedridden with a high fever, Liu Wu didn't care about anything else. Even if it meant losing face, he had to get the fever reducer back.

Thinking of this, he clenched his fist and slammed it hard against the steel door.

It remained completely still, and you could even clearly feel that no sound could get through.

He raised his voice and shouted, "Is anyone there? My daughter has a high fever, please help me!"

Liu Wu shouted himself hoarse outside, but not a sound could be heard inside the apartment.

The security camera at the entrance has communication capabilities. Lou Fengyue coldly observes everything happening outside through the system panel, remaining unmoved.

She turned off the panel and glanced at the two elderly people who were sitting on the sofa, looking extremely uncomfortable.

Lou Yunzheng is showing the two elderly people the changes in their bodies after a high fever.

He held a light bulb that had just been removed from his hand, drawing upon the energy flowing through his body.

Then, a wisp of blue-white electricity flashed across my fingertip, and the light bulb suddenly lit up.

Pan Quan gasped in shock, covered her mouth, and felt as if her throat was being choked, forgetting even to breathe.

Lou Qingjian's eyes widened, he rubbed them, and stared in disbelief at the light bulb that was shining.

If their son told them that he could generate electricity, they would definitely think that their son had a fever and damaged his brain.

But now that they've seen their son discharge electricity with their own eyes, they can't help but suspect that they themselves are sick and hallucinating.

"Dad, Mom," Lou Fengyue poured two glasses of water and placed them in front of her parents, her expression solemn, "What you saw was all true."

She recounted the entire course of those six months to her parents in detail, and Lou Yunzheng sat down and listened quietly to her story.

From how she suddenly ended up in the "Disaster Game" to how she awakened her superpowers and killed zombies.

I witnessed firsthand the collapse of social order.

I witnessed people killing their closest loved ones with their own hands just to snatch a piece of medicine or a piece of expired bread.

We witnessed how humans kill each other and become grotesque in their struggle for resources.

Lou Fengyue also said that a total of 100 people were selected to enter the game, and she was one of the eight who survived.

She recounted her six months of fierce battles in a nonchalant tone, yet it still sent chills down the spines of the three men.

The reality may be even more brutal than the game's preview.

Pan Quan's nose stung with tears, and she suddenly covered her face, sobbing softly, "Only eight out of a hundred survived... Yueyue, how much suffering have you endured these past six months..."

Lou Qingjian hugged his wife to comfort her, his eyes also a little moist. "I never thought that the scenes in the movies would actually happen in front of me. Yueyue, from now on, you're in charge of this family. You have experience and ability, and your mother and I will try our best not to hold you back."

Lou Fengyue sighed inwardly, tore off two tissues, and handed them to her mother. "I've stockpiled a lot of supplies these past few days, and now my brother has also awakened his special ability. For the time being, neither survival nor combat will be a problem."

"But the scariest thing in the apocalypse isn't zombies, it's people's hearts. I know you're kind-hearted, but for the sake of this family, you have to listen to me. No matter who's knocking on the door or how pitifully they're crying, don't open it. Leave it to me."

Lou Qingjian nodded emphatically, "Don't worry, I'll listen to you."

Lou Fengyue took out two sets of top-tier armor from the system Jiang Li from her spatial ring and placed them on the table.

The armor wasn't the hard armor you'd imagine, but rather a soft, smooth material like a hydrogel film, seemingly fragile enough to break at the slightest touch.

Lou Fengyue grabbed a fruit knife from the table and stabbed it hard into the armor.

The originally soft armor seemed to sense the approaching danger the moment it came into contact with the sharp blade, instantly becoming incredibly hard.

boom--

The stainless steel fruit knife cut it in half.

Upon seeing the armor's defensive capabilities, the three were so astonished they couldn't close their mouths.

"These are rewards for completing the game. Dad, Mom, put them on." Lou Fengyue handed them the armor, one set for each of them. "Wear them as the innermost layer, don't let anyone see them."

Pan Quan quickly waved his hand, "No, Yueyue, this is something you risked your life for, you keep it for yourself."

"My brother and I now have special abilities, so we can protect ourselves." Lou Fengyue shoved the armor into the two elders' arms without room for argument. "Put these on, and my brother and I will be able to go out and look for supplies without worry for the next few days."

Pan Quan and Lou Qingjian exchanged a glance, and finally nodded in agreement before going back to their bedroom to change their clothes.

Only the brother and sister remained in the living room.

Lou Yunzheng got up and walked to the windowsill. Looking at the gray world outside, his worries grew stronger.

The water on the road has deepened, and the cars that were originally parked on the roadside are now completely covered by the muddy rainwater.

You can see that the first floor of the building across the street is flooded, and many people have taken refuge in the uninhabited rooms on the third and fourth floors.

He suddenly wanted to know about the situation in his building, so he immediately turned around to grab his sister's phone and glanced at the residents' group chat.

Last night, many people were asking in the group when the power would be restored. The property management said that the rain was too heavy and there was really nothing they could do.

Today has become a day of desperate requests for medicine; in this building alone, five people have developed high fevers.

He knew all too well what it felt like to have a high fever; it was like being roasted on a stove.

If it weren't for his sister's Body Tempering Pill, he might have died last night.

He couldn't imagine how many people would die after this rain.

"Brother," Lou Fengyue walked over and patted his shoulder, "the most urgent thing is to teach you how to control your superpowers. You don't want to break all the tableware in the house, do you?"

Lou Yunzheng took a deep breath, composed himself, and asked, "Tell me, what should I do?"

Lou Fengyue thought for a moment and said, "Go find an electrical wire. There's an apartment downstairs that's being renovated; there should be an electrical wire there."

"Okay, I'll go look for it."

"I'll go with you."

Just then, the two elders came out after changing their clothes. Lou Fengyue repeatedly told them not to go out and not to open the door no matter who knocked.

Just as she was about to leave, she remembered that Liu Wu was still blocking the doorway begging for medicine.

She tapped the system panel and brought up the monitoring screen.

Liu Wu seemed to have all his strength drained away. He squatted by the wall, covered his face, and cried like a helpless child.
