Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

“Xiao Jin, what exactly is this Mental Element Ability?” Lin Tianzhen walked over, holding Mao Qiqi’s hand. Her daughter’s awakening of a Special Ability at such a young age had surprised her beyond expectation.

Actually, Su Jin was equally surprised. The Mental Element Ability could be described as a “cheating device.” In the early stages, it could detect the surrounding environment and sense danger, while in the later stages, it could even kill people without leaving a trace.

In her past life, even the most domineering people in the base dared not offend a Mental Element Ability User. Mao Qiqi’s awakening of the Mental Element Ability at such a young age was completely unexpected to Su Jin because she remembered that it was not until the second year of the Apocalypse that she heard of such an Ability; but perhaps people just hadn’t realized it was an Ability before.

“Sister Xiao Jin, is my Ability powerful?” Qiqi looked up and asked.

“Super powerful, Qiqi; you are amazing,” Su Jin patted Qiqi’s head, realizing that now they even had a living map.

As they walked, everyone listened to Su Jin explain the functions of the Mental Element, all taken aback by the revelations.

“Oh, that explains it. No wonder Qiqi has been counting numbers these days; she’s awakened an Ability,” Mao Zhihang suddenly understood. He had seen Mao Qiqi counting 1234 by herself these past few days, and the child had actually kept it to herself for so many days without saying a word.

Watching the others who envied Mao Qiqi, Su Jin hesitated over whether she should find an opportunity to let her family take the Five Elements Pill from her Space. Suddenly, she felt a strong gust of wind blow past her, and the sound of Nie Qing’s loud laughter came from behind.

It turned out that Nie Qing had sensed something when he touched the Wind Element Crystal Core. Just now, as he walked and reminisced about the Zombie’s skills, a gust of wind suddenly burst from his palm. He had awakened a Wind Element Ability!

“Enough already; you’re not getting any younger, acting like a child,”

Lu Guanhai patted Nie Qing, although he too was quite happy for Nie Qing, he thought the old guy was too undignified. He wondered how his son could have acknowledged him as a master.

“Are you jealous of me, huh?” Nie Qing pointed at Lu Guanhai and continued to gloat.

Everyone shook their heads and kept following Su Jin towards home, while the two behind seemed to have started fighting…

When they returned home, it was already the evening of that day. Yin Chengtian and Shi Jin looked unsurprised as they stared at Su Jin bringing out plate after plate of delicious dishes from the kitchen. There seemed to be braised fish today, along with spicy diced chicken, eight-treasure duck, stir-fried pork… The two couldn’t stop their saliva from vehemently flowing, sobbing inside: having hot meals every day was such bliss.

“Xiao Jin, I think I may have awakened an Ability too,” Mrs. Su Lin Tianhui said in the Space after dinner.

“Mom? You’re saying you’ve awakened an Ability too?” Su Jin asked.

“Yes, come and help me check, otherwise I might make a fool of myself if I’m wrong,”

Mrs. Su Lin Tianhui had discovered it by chance. Today, while killing Zombies, she accidentally fell and injured her knee. She clearly remembered tearing her jeans and bleeding from her knee, but when she took a bath just now, the wound was gone.

After hearing Mrs. Su’s words, Su Jin smiled and said, “Mom, it seems you have the Healing Element Ability.”

“Healing Element? Are you saying I can heal people now?”

Lin Tianhui felt the joy came too suddenly. She had always been wondering about what Special Ability she wanted, but she could never decide on one. Now healing seemed to fit her, feeling like a secure Ability.

Su Jin tried cutting her own finger to let Lin Tianhui focus and experiment, and indeed, the wound visibly healed at a remarkable speed.

“Oh my, darling, why would you cut yourself? I could’ve called your dad to try out,” Lin Tianhui murmured, distressed at healing her daughter.

Su Xiangzhe, who had hurried over, stumbled outside the door.

…

When night fell, Su Jin discussed the matter with Lu Hao. In the apocalyptic world, Special Ability Users were not as common as cabbages; previously, in her past life, the chances of awakening an Ability didn’t even reach 30%, yet within these few days, three people in their family had awakened Abilities. This was a defiance of the odds. ŘÀꞐóᛒЕs̈

“Could it be due to the water we’re drinking?” Lu Hao analyzed.

He had some suspicions when Lin Xiuyuan awakened an Ability and recently, everything the family had eaten, drunk, or used came from the well and stream water of the Space.

“That’s possible. The Space is filled with Spiritual Power, and the water is also enriched with Spiritual Power. Maybe it has already changed everyone’s physique!”

The more Su Jin thought about it, the more excited she became. She was somewhat glad she hadn’t let her family take the Five Elements Pill sooner. Mental, Ice, Wind, Healing – these Abilities were all variations beyond the Five Elements, and they were all quite precious. Most importantly, her family members hadn’t developed a fever before awakening their Abilities!

“Yes, we can take the Five Elements Pill later and give it to those who still need it. For now, we should prioritize increasing our strength,”

What Lu Hao meant by increasing strength was the ability to engage Zombies in close combat and becoming familiar with their habits.

“I agree, but we might need to prepare to leave this place soon,” Su Jin said, calculating the timing with her fingers.

“Are you talking about the safe haven you mentioned before?”

Lu Hao recalled the plan Su Jin had previously made with him. Back then, his attention was on teasing Su Jin and he hadn’t listened carefully to what she said afterwards.

“Yes… It should still be desolate there. It would be better for us to go earlier,” Su Jin confirmed.
