The End of the World: Start with a Book, All Superpowers Depend on Reading

‘Quick thinking’ and ‘reading ten lines at a glance’ are both enhanced abilities.

Although the level is low, they are super practical for Wang Mingyang.

With these two abilities, Wang Mingyang began to think about his current shortcomings.

Attack abilities include space cutting and metal control.

Functional abilities include mustard seed space, and metal control can also be counted.

Enhanced abilities include quick thinking and reading ten lines at a glance.

Li Yuchan’s Taiyi Divine Mind and Mu Ningxue’s ice and snow abilities in the team can both be used for protection.

Su Yu’s dark flame ability is also an attack ability. Although it has a group damage effect, it consumes too much.

“We need to extract a range attack ability as soon as possible.”

Metal control and space cutting both have a range of damage, but the range is a bit small.

In another day, the ancient lotus seeds will mature, and the mutant creatures attracted by then will be huge.

At that time, even if the mustard seed space is used to collect the mature lotus seeds, it may not be easy to break out of the siege.

Wang Mingyang closed his eyes and thought while searching the library of the system in his mind.

There were too many books, and the abilities that Wang Mingyang wanted to extract were too many to choose from.

After thinking about it, Wang Mingyang decided to start with the basic and easy-to-understand "Basics of Combustion".

If he could extract the range of fire abilities, he could make up for the shortcomings in this area.

As time passed, many people died during the day...

There were also many people who took up homemade weapons, walked out of their homes, fought zombies, and searched for supplies.

But at night, few people dared to go out.

After the previous few nights, the survivors more or less knew that various clusters of mutant creatures would go out at night.

In such a situation, even if the abilities were awakened, it was still difficult to escape.

At this time, in the boys' dormitory building, Tian Lei was distributing supplies to the surviving team members.

During the day, they bravely went out to search for supplies, but unfortunately, they only searched this dormitory building, and two ordinary members had died.

Only a small amount of instant noodles, biscuits and residual mineral water were found.

Everyone was terrified, especially the remaining two ordinary members, who were pale.

Fortunately, the five members who awakened their superpowers survived. After the battle during the day, they gradually gained some confidence.

"Tian Lei, there are helicopters coming in during the day, and there are zombies rioting over there. Will someone come to rescue?" Zuo Wenguang said with a glimmer of hope while chewing a pack of instant noodles.

"Yes, but it's a pity that we can't see the situation over there because of the small hill." Lu Hui nodded, a little regretful.

"I don't think it's likely that the rescue has arrived, otherwise there must be gunshots." Yao Zhichai took off the books tied to his body along with his clothes. There were some scratches on the surface of those books.

"Don't worry about him. At this time, even if there is rescue, it is probably to save those big shots." Tian Lei took a pack of instant noodles for himself and stuffed the remaining food and backpack into the cabinet.

"Do you think it's the masterpiece of those big brothers?" Li Xiang tried to use superpowers to fill a basin with water.

Although his ability was weak and his binding force was poor, he could condense a long stream of water out of thin air, which made the whole team no longer lack water.

Unfortunately, Li Xiang's energy reserve was only enough to release three streams of water, which could almost fill a small basin.

"It's very likely! In this school, they are probably the only ones who have this ability!" Zuo Wenguang said vaguely.

"In fact, as long as we are more cautious, those zombies are not difficult to kill, but it's a pity for the two classmates..."

Tian Lei said sadly that if he could release the hot chain faster at that time, the two classmates would not be bitten to death by the zombies.

Everyone couldn't help but quiet down when they heard this, and their faces were heavy.

"Don't blame yourself, this is our own choice." One of the ordinary members was silent for a while and said.

Another one nodded when he heard this: "It's better to die in battle than to starve to death. It's a pity that we haven't awakened our abilities, otherwise we can definitely kill more zombies!"

Although these two boys didn't awaken their abilities, they could take the initiative to stand up and fight the zombies.

Obviously, their courage and psychological preparation were much better. Tian Lei and his friends felt relieved after hearing this.

In fact, how good were they at the beginning of the battle with zombies?

Although their physical fitness had been strengthened once, their psychological quality had not been improved.

Except for Tian Lei and Zuo Wenguang, it was basically the first time for others to face zombies directly.

They were able to survive, thanks to Wang Mingyang and his friends who had led away all the zombies wandering in the corridor.

For the afternoon battle, they only needed to be prepared and open the doors one by one to welcome the zombies.

Even so, two students died.

"The windows are blocked, and those mutant creatures should not be able to get in at night. Everyone should have a good rest and we will continue tomorrow."

Tian Lei finished the instant noodles in his hand, licked his fingers, got up and climbed onto the bed and lay down.

The rest of the people also climbed onto the bed, or spread the quilts they found from the dormitory next door on the ground, and the seven of them soon lay down.

But whether they could fall asleep was another matter.

Ding Cheng, who had awakened the B-level superpower Iron Skin, was gathering with the remaining four people in a small supermarket.

The doors and windows of the supermarket were blocked, and there were many scattered packaging bags on the ground.

"It's a pity that Liu Nian and Sudan are starving to death and can't eat these good things."

Li Haoyan said vaguely while drinking Coke and chewing braised pig's trotters.

"Well, it's their own bad luck, otherwise they would definitely be able to outrun those zombies." Zhang Yan frowned.

Yesterday, they finally arrived at the library safely under the leadership of Ding Cheng and stayed inside for a night.

Taking advantage of the sudden sound of iron cymbals that attracted many zombies away, Lu Ming suggested to come to this small supermarket early the next morning to find supplies.

Everyone nodded in agreement, and seeing that there were very few zombies on the road, they were all eager to try.

Unfortunately, Sudan sprained his foot while running, and when he fell, he pulled Liu Nian down.

The two were pounced on by the zombies chasing behind them. Even if Ding Cheng wanted to turn back to rescue, it was too late.

The remaining five people finally arrived at this small supermarket safely. Ding Cheng relied on the strong defense of his steel skin and hammered several zombies inside with the steel pipes he found.

After sealing the doors and windows, they began to eat and drink.

"Eat less. You've been hungry for so many days. You can't eat like this." Lu Ming said lightly while taking a sip of water.

Ding Cheng sat aside and wiped the blood off his body with a rag.

"Although there are a lot of supplies here, we can't just sit back and eat."

"There are a lot of knives in the supermarket. Make some long knives and long spears tomorrow. You also have to learn to fight zombies."

The four people's faces were a little stiff when they heard it.

These two days, they basically waited for Ding Cheng to lead the zombies away, and then they took the opportunity to run to a safe place to hide.

Ding Cheng's words obviously meant that he didn't want to continue like this.

But if they had to face those terrifying zombies directly, the four people were somewhat afraid.

"There are so many supplies here, enough for us to last for a month. There will be a helicopter coming today. Maybe there will be rescue in a few days."

Liu Mei frowned, looking reluctant.

Everyone saw the helicopter hovering and landing from a distance. The other three people had flickering eyes and had the same idea.

"If there really was rescue, how come there was no gunfire?" Ding Cheng said with an unhappy face.

They didn't know that Gong Zhan and his men had silencers installed on their guns, so even Tian Lei and his men in the boys' dormitory didn't hear the muffled sound.

Not to mention that they were nearly two kilometers away, with a mountain in between.

Ding Cheng threw the blood-stained rag into the trash can and continued, "It's unrealistic to wait for rescue. We are too far away from the military area. If the troops really want to rescue, they will definitely give priority to the city center, where there are more survivors."

"It's unknown when the troops will arrive here. Instead of pinning our hopes on illusory rescue, we might as well rely on ourselves."

Li Haoyan's eyes flickered, and he gnawed the pig's trotter in his hand and muttered softly, "We are not like you, with superpowers..."

Although the voice was small, it was so close that everyone heard it clearly.

The other three people all had a flash of envy in their eyes, but none of them said anything.

Ding Cheng sighed in his heart, not knowing whether he was right or wrong to work so hard.
