In a frigid apocalypse, she fed her boyfriend until he became a zombie king.

Wenren Lei was grabbing the captain's collar, demanding a clue: "Give me the coordinates of the research institute."

The captain squinted and smiled eerily: "Alright, I'll give it to you now."

Wenrenlei sensed something was wrong and instinctively stepped back.

"Be careful." Fu Yan's expression changed drastically. He instantly pulled Wenren Lei into his arms and simultaneously strengthened his shielding ability to protect him.

The next instant, a blinding white energy wave suddenly exploded around the captain. Even with the ability to shield his powers, Wenren Lei still felt a slight sense of suffocation.

Fu Yan activated his healing power in his palm and pressed it against Wenren Lei's throat, then raised his foot and kicked hard in the forehead.

The captain's head snapped violently, his neck broke with a crack, and the white energy wave that was on the verge of going out of control vanished instantly.

The feeling of suffocation slowly subsided, and Wenren Lei lifted her head from Fu Yan's arms.

The captain was bleeding from all seven orifices, his head tilted back at an odd angle, the back of his head almost touching his spine. Xiao Si, sitting beside him, had already hung his head and remained motionless.

Wenren Lei was somewhat bewildered. She frowned and walked over, lifting Xiao Si's chin to look. The other person's face was swollen and bluish-purple; he had already suffocated and died.

"Did you suffocate so quickly?"

Fu Yan came over to support him and asked, "Do you feel unwell anywhere? Dizziness or chest tightness, or anything like that?"

"No." Wenren Lei looked at the captain's gruesome body and asked, "Did he self-destruct his ability?"

Fu Yan glanced at the corpse: "Hmm."

With the trail leading nowhere, Wenren Lei was somewhat disappointed: "This is troublesome, where should we look for Branch 04?"

Fu Yan gently comforted him: "Don't be sad. The people from the research institute have been heading west. We'll continue investigating in this direction and keep an eye out for anyone capturing purification ability users. We're sure to find some clues."

"it is good."

Fu Yan continued, "These people might not actually be from the research institute. Remember Lan Ting, whom we met on the black market before?"

Wenren Lei said, "I remember, I've already had Bai Yao send someone to investigate him in District 15."

Seeing that Wenren Lei was still in a bad mood, Fu Yan said, "At worst, I can reveal my identity as a purification ability user and lure the people from the Cataclysm Research Institute to arrest me."

"Fu Yan," Wenren Lei almost laughed in anger, "Do you think you're so smart? Putting aside how dangerous this is, the military is also searching for the location of the disaster research institute. Once your zombie identity is exposed, Commander Liu might choose to accept you, but what about the others?"

Before Fu Yan could speak, Wenren Lei interrupted him, "My brother is indeed important to me, but Fu Yan, you are just as important. Don't bring up this one-for-one plan again; it's incredibly stupid."

Fu Yan stared intently at his serious expression, took a deep breath, and said, "I understand. I won't think that way anymore."

Wenren Lei glared at him, then raised her hand and withdrew her water element. The city's buildings quickly lost their translucent blue color, reverting to the original white, dilapidated old city. He murmured in confusion, "Hmm?"

"What's wrong?"

Wenren Lei raised an eyebrow: "It feels like there's a lot less water."

Fu Yan chuckled: "It's probably because some survivors took the opportunity to store water."

Wenren Lei scratched his head helplessly: "Alright, I'll just consider it a good deed."

Fu Yan leaned down to look him in the eye: "Then let's go home."

"it is good."

Back in the RV, Maruko saw its owners return and immediately barked and ran to their feet, circling around them.

"Good dog." Wenren Lei gave the puppy's head a perfunctory pat and slumped into the sofa, lost in thought.

"Awooo!" Maruko was unhappy and rushed to the sofa, yelling at Wenren Lei.

Fu Yan carried the restless Wanzi to the dining table, put fresh zombie meat and homemade puppy biscuits into the puppy bowl, and stroked the dog's head, saying, "Don't bother him, let him play by himself."

"Woof!" Maruko spun around in place, then rushed into the dog bowl and ate like crazy.

Fu Yan turned and went into the kitchen, cut up a plate of cantaloupe, brought it to the living room, and sat down next to Wenren Lei.

Wenren Lei crawled and wriggled on the sofa, then lay down on Fu Yan's lap and continued to stare blankly.

After Fu Yan fed him a few pieces of fruit, he remembered that he hadn't replied to Commander Liu's message, so he took out his satellite phone and opened the text message to check.

The newsletter list was full of messages from Commander Liu.

What level are you? Aren't you going to join us? Why aren't you saying anything?

One minute later: [Doesn't she know how to respect her elders? She doesn't even reply to a single message!]

Four minutes later: [Fu Yunyi, you're driving me crazy!]

Ten minutes later: [You little brat! Reply to this message!]

Fifteen minutes later: [Don't contact me again.]

Wenren Lei: ...

He turned the phone over to show Fu Yan and began to complain, "Look at this old Liu, he always says he's busy, but now he's got nothing better to do than bombard me with text messages."

Fu Yan forked a piece of cantaloupe and fed it to him: "This is out of concern for you."

"Ha." Wenren Lei chewed on the fruit and typed away.

"I was busy just now. You're getting older, can't you control your temper? You're so impatient."

Commander Liu replied quickly, grabbing Wenren Lei and giving her a good scolding.

Wenrenlei chuckled, recalling the captain's words, and continued typing away.

I think I'm Rank 2S, but I'm not sure, that's what I heard from others.

[Anyway, I just elementalized a city and mounted a bunch of streamlined machine guns on the walls. So cool, hehe.]

【(｡-.•)】

Wenren Lei thought for a moment and then added.

But a lot of people outside are taking advantage of this to steal my water, it's so annoying.

【(ー`´ー)】

Commander Liu didn't reply immediately this time. After a long silence, he sent two messages.

"Want to come and be the base commander in Zone 1? I can retire right now."

【(OwO)】

Wenren Lei: ...

He showed the phone to Fu Yan again: "So he went to learn emoticons?"

Fu Yan glanced at the screen and commented, "You guys are cute."

Wenrenlei frowned in disdain and typed a reply.

No, what happened to my sister, Han?

Commander Liu replied.

Don't worry, we're taking good care of her.

Wenren Lei was relieved.

[That's good. Preparing for sleep. Do not disturb.]

He put down the satellite phone, looked up at Fu Yan, and opened his mouth: "Ah..."

Fu Yan, his face full of doting affection, forked a large piece of cantaloupe and fed it into his mouth.

Wenrenlei chewed while exclaiming, "Ouch!"

"Your humble servant is here!"

"Go listen to the military's broadcasts, summarize the standards for classifying people with superpowers, and report back to me."

"OK."

A1-V's voice quickly returned: "Summary complete."

Wenren Lei comfortably rested her head on Fu Yan's lap: "Speak."

"Next, we will report on the official seven-level classification standard for elemental ability users."

Rank D: The ability user's energy is weak, limited to basic manipulation. For example, with water elementalism, they can only create a small water ball for show.

Rank C: Can use superpowers to assist in combat, such as attaching superpowers to weapons to increase combat power.

Rank B: Can fight independently using their abilities without weapons. Some exceptionally talented ability users will possess their own unique skills, such as your water-based condensation weapon.

Currently, most elemental ability users are at level B.

Level A: Ability users can elementalize the surrounding environment, generally within a range of 20 square meters.

Because each superhuman's mental strength limit is different, the official classification system assigns a suffix number to the A-level rating.

For example, A1, A2, and A3 represent the ability of a superhuman to elementalize their environment for one minute, two minutes, and three minutes, respectively.

The maximum duration for Level A is 100 minutes.
