Chapter 4, Embracing the Baptism of Moonlight

This special ability was not possessed by Xu Luo before his rebirth; he was merely a strengthened individual slightly stronger than an ordinary person. Even if he could become an evolved being, he understood that he would certainly be unable to compete against evolved beings with special abilities

Xia Yujia stood up gracefully, this time without asking anything, her eyes bright.

The cool breeze stirred the long hair of Xia Yu, and she suddenly felt that the night sky was very desolate

Now that he can exist on this day of the apocalypse, he wants to give it a try; he wants to see if his speculations from before his rebirth are correct

Xia Yu nodded, having fully accepted the arrival of the apocalypse, and she had complete faith in Xu Luo

Having arrived on the first floor, Xu Luo came to a stop

Two individuals stepped out of the iron gate, and the rooftop was bathed in moonlight, illuminating the empty rooftop with a bright glow. Looking up at the sky, there was no star in sight, only the radiant moon.

Xu Luo's words echoed in the ears like the long, piercing sound of a警笛

Xu Luo said in a deep voice: "Rope, I need rope that can bind people"

Xu Luo looked at the little white mouse in the corner, his eyes particularly bright

He also wishes to acquire this special ability, but after investigation and understanding, he discovered that there are only two types of individuals who possess this special ability

After the two entered the storage room, Xu Luo immediately looked around, her perceptive ability scrutinizing every corner of the storage room with exceptional detail

However, he discovered something strange

There are five and a half hours left until twelve o'clock

When returning to Xia Yujia's side, she had already stood up, her gaze calm

Under the cold moonlight, her words were equally cold

On the night when the apocalypse arrives, a blood moon can be seen from anywhere on this planet, occurring at twelve o'clock, lasting only five minutes.

The foul odor of the chemicals still permeates the laboratory

Arriving at the door of the storage room, he drew the fire axe from his waist and struck down decisively with a single blow

The perceptive insight revealed that there were more than ten cages containing laboratory mice, and suddenly his eyes brightened as a new plan formed in his mind

Although I am no longer the orphan I was before my rebirth, my current situation is not much different from that of an orphan; apart from longing and worry, there is nothing I can do.

He drew the fire axe from behind his waist, and as usual, delivered a steady and precise strike, effortlessly severing the brass padlock. Xu Luo pushed open the heavy iron door, and a gust of cool wind rushed towards him

After twelve o'clock, this campus should have quieted down, and it would be more prudent to leave at that time

A hint of a smile appeared at the corners of Xu Luo's lips, somewhat cold.

There are still four and a half hours left, and then I will try to lure some zombies over. After we kill these zombies, we can set off, right?" Xu Luo said淡淡地.

Xu Luo nodded, then took her hand and led her to the edge of the rooftop, stepping onto the waist-high parapet, and coldly said: "Look down."

All novels that appeared during the Dark Ages mentioned the same phenomenon

Xia Yujia's face revealed a smile

He wants to try his luck

What should I do

However, no one stepped forward to help, and more zombies approached.

Having descended from the parapet, Xia Yujia felt her legs weaken and sat down on the rooftop bathed in moonlight

Xia Yujia has begun to get used to this smell, although she still feels uncomfortable, the feeling of nausea has already disappeared

"Do you dare to kill zombies?" Xu Luo's voice rang in her ear, instantly shattering the mood she had just immersed herself in.

He is powerless

Xu Luo remained silent and speechless

"Xu Luo, I miss home, I want to know how they are doing," Xia Yujia said softly, tears suddenly rolling down from her eyes.

What causes the appearance of a blood moon? Could it be the source of special abilities? Why do not all powerful individuals possess special abilities?

Immediately following was a heavy kick, and the door of the storage room was kicked open

The cold moonlight streamed through the laboratory window, striking the blade of the fire axe just right, emitting a chilling gleam.

Feeling the warmth leave from her shoulder, Xia Yujia stopped crying. Looking at Xu Luo's resolute face, a wave of warmth surged in her heart.

During his previous life as a hunter, Xu Luo would often gaze at the moon in the sky of that time, always pondering what the blood moon of the apocalypse truly signified

Why

He understands Xia Yujia's current feelings, although she is still unaware of the situation outside. However, at this moment, she does not want Xu Luo to think of her as someone who cannot be of help

Although the corridor was dark, Xu Luo could still sense the stains of blood on the concrete floor. His perception was indeed stronger than when he was enhanced.

Their difference does not lie in the disparity of strength, but rather in their special abilities

There is a rooftop, and on the rooftop, there is moonlight. He wants to wait until midnight to kill zombies when the blood moon appears, betting on whether he can gain special abilities.

Xu Luo raised his wrist to check the time, there were five hours left until twelve o'clock

This is true

He hesitated for a moment, then said: "As for making you kill zombies, that is essential; only after killing zombies will you understand how to survive"

"The gymnasium," she exclaimed in surprise, "there should be ropes there"

We have been staying here

Xu Luo looked up at the bright moon in the sky once again, and a sudden flash of fervor appeared in his eyes

Xu Luo secured the fire axe at his lower back, held onto Xia Yujia's hand, and strode towards the staircase

There were no bright lights as usual, only a few streetlights struggling to stay lit. Under the dim light, people were running and fleeing everywhere, but it was the slow-moving yet relentless zombies that convinced her of the terrifying reason for Xu Luo's claim that the apocalypse had arrived

Xu Luo began to ponder seriously for the first time, could this be the influence of reincarnation

They moved aside the clutter that had taken considerable effort to block the door, opened the laboratory door, and stepped outside, where the teaching building was silent and still

Xu Luo pondered for a moment, just as he was about to speak, he suddenly heard a series of "chirping" sounds

Her legs felt somewhat weak, a strange burning sensation seared through her nerves

Go to the rooftop

Xu Luo did not sit beside her, but stood in front of her, his back straight.

Has it already endowed oneself with extraordinary perceptual abilities

Only rely on oneself

Three zombies besieged the man, and the sound of piercing cries seemed to echo in his ears

He desires to possess special abilities, for only by having such abilities can one qualify to become a unique strong individual and stand out in the future

Xu Luo noticed her displeasure and comforted her, saying: "Yujia, it was my oversight, but I have thought it through now, and it should be better than my previous thoughts. Nevertheless, I still want to thank you."

Why not leave now? Why bring the zombies to kill? Although it is already calm, there is still confusion regarding Xu Luo's arrangements

Until the only thing in Xia Yu's eyes was the zombie, she slowly closed her eyes, unable to bear to look any longer

However, according to the records, the enhancement potion will only appear simultaneously with the immunity potion after six months, yet I am currently able to possess the perception of an enhanced individual. Could this be the ability brought about by my rebirth

Although she did not understand why a rope was needed, Xia Yujia still began to ponder deeply

In the Dark Age, Enhanced Humans were born, and those who are more advanced than Enhanced Humans are the Evolved Humans. However, even among Evolved Humans of the same level, there are distinctions in strength and weakness

He cannot find the answer, but he can only be certain that he possesses the ability to survive better than others in this apocalyptic world

Open your eyes," Xu Luo said coldly, "Do not close your eyes, look carefully, once you see clearly, you should know what to do.

Xu Luo took Xia Yujia's hand and walked over in that direction

The last iron gate leading to the rooftop is tightly locked, secured with an old-fashioned brass padlock. Xu Luo set down the last two cages of white mice in his hands, having already placed the rest in concealed corners at each stairway entrance.

Xia Yujia was taken aback for a moment, then pouted her lips slightly, showing a hint of displeasure

Do you remember where the storage room is?

One type is the strong individuals who survived before the end, and the other type is the descendants of these strong individuals. Those born in the Dark Age, if they have no blood relation to those strong individuals, no one can possess any special abilities. Xu Luocha searched through all the information he could find, but he could not find any answers.

Gazing at the flowing cold light, Xu Luo slowly stood up, his eyes warm.

Xia Yujia opened her eyes, tears welling in her eyes, but she did not let them fall. Gritting her teeth, she said: "I don't know if I can kill zombies, but I will try."

Time flows away minute by minute

"What are you looking for?" Xia Yujia could sense his disappointment and asked.

Why

The scene on campus can only be described as chaotic

The two individuals sat side by side on the cold floor, feeling the warmth emanating from each other's shoulders

After hesitating for a moment, Xia Yujia gritted her teeth and stepped onto the parapet, looking down.

The purpose of coming to this teaching building is singular

What shall we do now? asked Xia Yujia

With the faint light coming from the open door of the teaching building, Xia Yujia pointed to the left and said: "There, the second to last room."

A person running in the distance fell to the ground, yet those passing by did not stop at all. It seemed he was trying to struggle to his feet, but despite several attempts, he still could not succeed

It turns out that the items he needs are not available

"No need, I don't think I will need the rope anymore, there are other ways." A hint of a smile played at the corners of his lips

Now, we are family

It is unclear how much time has passed, but Xu Luo bent down and gently placed the fire axe in front of Xia Yujia, then suddenly stepped over to the iron door and took out a metal pipe to secure the door tightly.

Killing zombies? Her terrified gaze revealed the immense fear within her

Although lacking the strength to enhance oneself, the hands are steady, and the eyesight is extraordinary. The wooden door is easily split open.

A trace of disappointment appeared on his face

Some individuals can manipulate flames, some can petrify their own skin, and others can even transform a part of their body into metal suddenly

"Follow me," Xu Luo said softly.

He wishes to be bathed in the moonlight, but he only has a fifty percent chance of succeeding

Fear is death; fleeing, the shadow of death may descend at any moment; waiting for rescue is not much different from waiting to die
