100: Chapter 100 Don't Leave Me

The group returned home after completing their mission.

The elders at home had nothing to do, so they prepared hot pot, which they could eat as soon as they returned.

In this cold weather, hot pot was the perfect match.

"Come quickly, the soup base is ready, we were just waiting for you all to come back to add the ingredients." Xu Wanning's grandmother called everyone over.

Xu Wanning walked over, holding Lu Chengyue's hand, "Coming!"

11 months later.

"The next Acid Rain is about to arrive. Everyone is to isolate today and live in separate rooms." The broadcast repeated this sentence over and over.

Everyone obediently moved into different rooms to live, following the country's lead to live to 99!

Xu Wanning and the others continued to live separately as they did before The Apocalypse. Lu Chengyue moved into the study, where a bed had been set up.

The two of them talked on the phone through the wall.

Xu Wanning leaned against the wall, "A-Yue, do you think it might not be Acid Rain this time, but something else?"

Lu Chengyue also leaned against the wall, "Maybe. We know what natural disasters there are. The Great Leader and the others have already discussed it in advance. They have preparations for high temperatures, floods, and earthquakes, so don't worry."

"High temperatures and floods might be manageable, but I have no confidence regarding earthquakes." According to the pattern of The Apocalypse, earthquakes would come every day. In that case, would there be any way for survivors to live?

All buildings would be destroyed, there would be no sufficient places to live, not even enough open space to set up tents. Would there be any way for survivors to live?

Lu Chengyue's expression was grave, "Don't think so much. If it really is an earthquake and we can't survive, then we will die together. I will never leave you alone."

"Mm, let's sleep." Xu Wanning lay down. Being anxious about things that hadn't happened yet was just adding unnecessary trouble. She knew this very well, but she still couldn't help thinking about it.

Lu Chengyue also lay down, keeping the phone call connected without hanging up.

In fact, neither of them was asleep, but to avoid making the other more anxious, they both chose not to speak, their breathing steady.

Waking up the next morning, Xu Wanning glanced at the clock on the wall. It was 7:30 AM, half an hour left.

She quickly got up, delivered meals to each room, and then returned to her room to eat.

Her phone ran out of battery, so she quickly charged it. A message from The Great Leader popped up, [Little Ning, if, if I unfortunately mutate, you must take over my position.]

Xu Wanning was dumbfounded. She only had a tiny bit of experience with The Apocalypse. For him to ask her to rule a country, The Great Leader was overestimating her too much.

[The Great Leader, don't worry, you will be fine. You were fine in the previous life.]

She remembered seeing The Great Leader on the plane before she died. To be able to become The Great Leader, one must be protected by good fortune.

A message quickly came back from the other side, [Then it seems I have to persist a little longer.]

No one wanted to die, and of course, The Great Leader didn't either.

The sky gradually darkened. She originally thought it would definitely be different from the previous life, but in the end, the Acid Rain still came, and they had to start killing zombies again.

Splash.

The pitter-patter of raindrops hit the windows. The reinforced building was not corroded by the Acid Rain, but the ground outside did not fare as well.

White smoke rose from the corrosion. The acidity of this Acid Rain was much heavier than the first one.

The temperature began to rise, and the ice and snow melted, turning into rivers that flowed through the drainage ditches they had dug long ago, rushing toward the rivers, lakes, and seas.

The zombies that had originally been frozen began to roar happily; they were free.

Xu Wanning took one last look out the window and closed her eyes.

Waking up again, Xu Wanning looked at the clock. It was eight o'clock on a new day.

The roaring of zombies outside was constant, and even the roaring of zombies inside the Safe Zone was very loud.

Including her villa.

Xu Wanning's heart skipped a beat. Someone had mutated. Who was it?

She opened her door, and Lu Chengyue from the next room also walked out.

Both of them saw the anxiety in each other's eyes. The sounds were too clear; they couldn't deceive themselves into thinking everyone was fine.

The two of them held hands and went downstairs, checking each room one by one, until they finally found the room with the loudest zombie roars.

Wen Shuyang was standing at the door crying, not even having the courage to open it.

Seeing Xu Wanning, she lunged forward, "Ningning, it's, it's my parents' room, my parents, my parents."

Xu Wanning hugged her tightly, "A-Yue, open the door!"

Lu Chengyue took out the key and opened the door. As soon as the door opened, Wen Huailei, who had mutated into a zombie, lunged out.

Xu Wanning took out a rope and threw it over. Lu Chengyue quickly tied up Wen Huailei and stuffed something into his mouth.

Xu Wanning took Wen Shuyang inside. On the balcony, Wu Suyun was leaning against the wall, covering her mouth, crying uncontrollably.

"Mom, Mom, it's okay, it's okay." Wen Shuyang went over to hug her, and the mother and daughter cried together.

Wen Huailei's mouth was blocked, but there were still zombie sounds in the villa.

Xu Wanning went downstairs, listening to the sounds to search, and finally found the grandparents' room.

Grandpa Zhou was standing there. Seeing Xu Wanning, he sighed, "Little Ning, please accept my condolences."

Xu Wanning closed her eyes and opened them again. She had long been mentally prepared, but her nose still couldn't help but ache, and tears still couldn't help but want to flow out.

Lu Chengyue went over to open the door, and two zombies lunged out at the same time. They had clearly been isolated before going to sleep, but now they both came out at the same time; something was wrong.

Xu Wanning saw the wound on Grandpa's neck at a glance. What else was there to not understand? Grandpa must have seen Grandmother mutate and didn't want to live alone, so he had voluntarily offered himself to her mouth.

Tears fell down in torrents. She took out the rope, and Grandpa Zhou and Lu Chengyue worked together to tie them up.

There was still, still sound.

Everyone continued to search, and finally arrived at the room of Song Yunqing's parents, Song Shouyi and Liu Meilan.

"Old Song, don't leave me, woo woo woo, why? Why take away my Old Song!"

Liu Meilan's crying came from the room.

Lu Chengyue opened the door. Liu Meilan was slumped on the floor of the room, looking at Song Shouyi on the balcony, heartbroken.

Xu Wanning went downstairs to knock on Song Yunqing's door, "Qingqing, go up, Uncle Song has mutated."

Song Yunqing was stunned for a moment, then tears streamed down her face, and she trotted upstairs.

Four zombies. Just in their villa alone, there were four more zombies. The situation in other places must be even worse.

Not long after, Zhou Ke, who had gone to check the auxiliary building, returned, "Grandpa, Sister Ning, Liu Bin, Xu Long, and Li Weiguo have mutated."

Grandpa Zhou's body swayed. He had treated these apprentices like his own sons. At such a young age, they were just gone like that.

After another while, Jiang Yishen arrived with everyone from Team 888. They had all escaped the disaster and were fine, but not all of their families had been spared.

When Police Captain Cheng Jingchuan came over, his expression was very bad, "In our team, 4 people mutated, and 12 family members mutated."

Just among them, there were so many mutations, and this was even without being exposed to the Acid Rain. One could imagine the number of mutations this time.

Wen Shuyang held Wu Suyun's body tightly, supporting her, "Ningning, my dad, what do we do about my dad?"

"Yangyang, you should know, we are powerless, and we cannot keep them."

Xu Jingan and Lin Wanqiu, Xu Jingping and Qin Qingru, Xu Yu and Xu Wanning were all crying too. Their parents and grandparents were just gone like that, just gone like that.
