Fang Yuxin carefully tuned in and finally confirmed that Angela had also awakened, possessing an Ice Ability no less! But Angela looked unchanged, scratching Angela's chin, her blue eyes gazed at her blankly, innocently "meowing" once.
Qu Qianhe exclaimed in surprise, "What's wrong? Could it be... it has also mutated?"
At her words, everyone turned to look at Angela in Fang Yuxin's arms. They had just awakened their superpowers and couldn't sense the energy fluctuations emanating from Angela. Fang Yuxin was different; she was on the path of Cultivation, with a Cultivation Technique, naturally different from ordinary superpower users groping for abilities on their own.
The Fang Family had already learned from Fang Yuxin that animals and plants might mutate, something mentioned in her initial posts, but seeing it with their own eyes, they were all incredibly astonished.
Fang Yuyang's expression, however, quickly grew somber—when Fang Yuxin first mentioned it to him, the apocalypse hadn't started, and he still harbored some hope. Now that he witnessed it himself, Fang Yuyang realized the situation was far from optimistic. Humanity already had zombies as enemies; if animals and plants mutated, the human predicament would undoubtedly become even more difficult!
Thinking this, a burning desire to increase his strength arose in Fang Yuyang. He remembered Fang Yuxin mentioning that zombies had Crystal Cores in their brains that could be absorbed for Cultivation and said gravely, "Xinxin, let's hurry outside and see what's going on."
He had already tried; not only were water, electricity, and gas cut off, communications were also disrupted, unable to receive any signal. There wasn't a soul nearby, and to know what was happening outside, they'd have to go see for themselves.
Fang Yuxin nodded, and after a hurried lunch, she and Fang Yuyang went to change their clothes. As previously discussed, Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang would venture out to scout and kill zombies, searching for Elemental Crystals, while Fang Jintang and his wife Qu Qianhe took Bai Qianqian in the SUV to the suburbs.
Because of that dream, Fang Yuxin knew some locations of Elemental Stones, which were later revealed but were certainly not all of them. At this moment, Fang Yuxin couldn't be sure if the Elemental Stones were actually in those places; she marked some positions on the map, all in the less-populated suburbs, relatively safer.
At this beginning of the apocalypse, many people were surely anxious, and it might take a long time before the effects of the Elemental Stones were discovered, providing them an opportunity.
Back in her bedroom, Fang Yuxin took out a two-meter-long black case with a combination lock. Inside were three sets of black bodysuits and two black Miao Sabers. The bodysuits came with matching boots and belts and other tools, including daggers, goggles, and night vision goggles.
All these items were prepared by Fang Yuyang, made in haste with new carbon fiber composite materials giving the clothing excellent breathability and toughness. The Miao Sabers could cut through iron as if it were mud.
The bodysuits were formfitting, accentuating her curves once worn. Fang Yuxin had been in good shape to start with, and twenty-plus days of Cultivation, coupled with the effects of the Bone Marrow Cleansing Fruit, had made her figure near perfect. With a height of 175cm, a delicate face, slim neck, full and perky breasts, flexible and slender waist, and firm, long legs, she was an embodiment of perfection.
The belt was specifically designed to carry weapons. After strapping it on, Fang Yuxin attached the dagger. The flat-heeled boots reached just below the knees, perfectly contouring her legs with a soft material that did not hinder leg movement at all. The sides of the boots also had spaces to carry weapons, and Fang Yuxin placed a Military dagger on each side.
On the back seat, Bai Qianqian held his phone with a dejected face—how annoying! Why is there still no signal? Dad, where could you be? You're not even coming to find Mama, it's so irritating! Mama is becoming more and more beautiful; she definitely won't take a second glance at Dad now!
...
This villa area was located in the suburbs currently under development. Besides the villa community, there were large tracts of agricultural bases around, as well as many newly constructed residential complexes. Due to the surrounding economic industries not yet being developed, the number of people living here wasn't large; one could even see expanses of vacant land.
The area was a distance away from the urban districts, but the environment was considered nice. Importantly, there were vast farmlands and ready-made houses, which is why it later became one of the survivor bases and grew into the largest survivor base in the Market.
As Fang Yuxin and Fang Yuyang drove away, they could see zombies wandering around when they passed the residential buildings. Apparently smelling the scent of living humans, the zombies began to swarm towards them.
