At noon,Arnold was sweating profusely as he lay on the floor. He felt sore all over and had no strength left in his body. He had been exercising at home all morning, and now his stamina was almost depleted. If it weren't for his spontaneous decision to exercise today, he wouldn't have realized how much his physical fitness had declined. In the past, running ten kilometers was a breeze for him, but now doing a few push-ups and sit-ups felt like a matter of life and death. Sophie, seeing Arnold exerting…-

Following the directions on the mini-map, David walked towards the ambient storage area. "Strange, how can there be no one in this place?" David felt curious. Near the warehouse, he hadn't seen a single survivor, let alone a zombie. In theory, although this place had fewer people, there should at least be a few zombies around. "Could it be that the company happened to have a day off on the day of the zombie outbreak?" However, David quickly dismissed this idea because cold chain transportation…

The next day, Sophie just woke up and saw Arnold doing push-ups in the living room. "45, 46, 47... Ah, I can't do it anymore. It's been a while since I last trained," Arnold gasped for breath, lying on the floor. Curious, Sophie asked, "Honey, what are you doing?" Arnold replied, "I heard people online saying that people with good physical fitness are more likely to become superhumans. I need to work hard too." Sophie smiled and said, "Ever since you left the army, you've gained quite a few pounds.…

After being patted on the Little Black head by David, Little Black ran over to Sally and rubbed against her leg. David had heard that ordinary animals would experience a significant increase in intelligence after awakening as mutant beasts. Little Black indeed seemed much smarter now. It appeared to recognize the close relationship between Sally and David, which was why it tried to please Sally. Sally felt delighted and crouched down to pat Little Black. "You're such a clever little fellow. It looks…

At night, David, Arnold, and the others sat together, and David explained to Sophie and Arnold what abilities were all about. "So, you're saying that Brother Knife is also an ability user?" Arnold asked. "That's right," David replied. He picked up a tissue from the dining table and casually stored it in his storage space, then took it out again. The others noticed that the tissue in David's hand suddenly disappeared and then reappeared. "I awakened a spatial ability. I can store lifeless objects in…

David stood aside and watched as Arnold approached Angus, making no attempt to stop him. He wasn't worried that Arnold would get himself into trouble. Angus didn't have any weapons and had lost a leg. If Arnold could be killed so easily, he wouldn't have lived long enough to meet David in their past lives. David remembered when he first met Arnold in a previous life, back when Arnold hadn't developed any special abilities yet. However, even at that time, Arnold had already demonstrated superior combat…

David asked in a cold voice, "Where is Zoe?" Angus hurriedly replied, "She... she's in the room. Let me take you there." Angus quickly got up from the ground and led the way. Arnold, Sophie, and the others followed, their faces filled with worry, as if they had a bad premonition. They all followed Angus to his room. Angus stood at the bedroom door with his back to everyone, his hand hesitating on the doorknob. After a moment, he gritted his teeth and finally made up his mind to open the door. As the…

"Damn, who are you calling a pig?" Brother Knife was furious after hearing David's words. He didn't expect that even facing the surrounding of over twenty people on his side, David and his group dared to act so arrogantly. "Just wait for me, kid. I'm going to break your legs and make you watch as your woman gets played with." Others chimed in, cursing as well, "Brother Knife! Take him down!" "The brat's about to meet his end, yet he still talks tough." "Brother Knife, get him!" Originally, Brother…

In Angus's house, it was crowded and bustling with people. Over twenty men of different ages and appearances were in Angus's living room, smoking and chatting. They were all Brother Knife's subordinates. Angus enthusiastically chatted with these people, trying to become familiar with them. The men were polite to Angus, mainly because of his strong physique, giving him a tough image. Moreover, they had heard that Angus provided Brother Knife with a very important piece of information. Anyone with keen…

"Brother Knife, someone sent a message saying they have important information to disclose to you." Brother Knife was lying on a lounge chair with his eyes half-closed, looking relaxed. Two women were massaging and kneading his legs beside him. Upon hearing the man's words Brother Knife sneered and reached out to touch one of the women's thighs, saying, "Important information? Bullshit! Ignore it." Brother Knife didn't take the message seriously. Ever since he posted those videos online, his private…
