"Can your awakened X-ray vision ability see through a wall and see what's inside?"
Just as he was fantasizing about becoming the ruler of the land, Xu Zhiwu interrupted him directly.
"Forget about a wall, even if there are ten walls in between, I can still see clearly!"
Dongzi nodded with a hint of pride, but soon, he felt a bit regretful about his own ability, and a trace of disappointment appeared on his face. "Oh, what a pity. If I had this ability before the apocalypse, it would have been great. But in the current world... it seems useless, sigh..."
"Who said it's useless?"
"I need someone like you right now!"
"I'm planning to take over the opposite residential area, but I don't know what's inside!"
"Since you have X-ray vision, help me see what's inside."
"If it's not dangerous, we'll take it today!"
Xu Zhiwu pointed to the opposite supermarket excitedly.
As long as he figured out how those two thousand people died yesterday, he could confidently charge in.
"Why do you ask about that?"
"Well, you've asked the right person. Without even looking, I know what's inside."
"Before the apocalypse, there were five armored vehicles parked in the yard, as well as ten AI combat robots!"
"I looked it up on the internet. They are AI individual combat robots!"
"At first, I thought they were for attracting customers during the opening, using these things to catch people's attention."
"But now, it seems that the kid knew the apocalypse was coming and prepared for defense in advance!"
Dongzi explained what he saw when he worked as a loader.
If he didn't know about these weapons and equipment inside, he would have come alone to steal it a long time ago. Why would he find Sang Biao and Xu Zhiwu to cooperate? He wanted to use them as human shields.
"So that's how it is!"
"No wonder more than two thousand people died inside!"
After hearing what he said, Xu Zhiwu suddenly realized.
However, these weapons and equipment couldn't threaten him at all.
"Tell your people not to look for food!"
"Come with me to the opposite supermarket. They have beef, mutton, and everything there!"
"Afterward, let them eat their fill!"
After a moment of contemplation, Xu Zhiwu ordered Dongzi in a commanding tone.
"You want... to attack the opposite supermarket?"
"But there are combat robots inside. What's the difference between going with just a few of us and sending ourselves to death?"
A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation.
Dongzi looked at him as if he were an idiot, but soon paused and came up with an idea. "How about this? I have a few guns. We can ambush outside the supermarket, wait for the owner to come out, and capture him. Once we have him, what are we afraid of with those robots...!"
But before he could finish his words, the street lamp not far away actually bent down.
At the same time, Xu Zhiwu stretched out his right hand, making a twisting motion.
"What is this... an ability?"
"You've awakened an ability too?"
Dongzi, who had just dismissed Xu Zhiwu, was shocked to see this magical scene and was dumbfounded.
"Yes!"
"I've awakened the ability to control metal!"
"Within five meters, I can twist any metal into a spiral!"
"As long as I exert force, I can immediately destroy those armored vehicles and combat robots!"
As Xu Zhiwu spoke, he reached out into thin air, and a handgun immediately flew out of Dongzi's pocket.
"For something as light as this, I can easily pull it towards me."
He showed off this ability and pulled the gun towards him mainly to assert his dominance over Dongzi. He needed manpower urgently and would try his best to keep anyone who could become his underling.
"Xu Ge, I didn't expect you... you're so amazing!"
"Oh right, from now on, you'll be the eldest brother to Dongzi, and the thirty-plus people under me will be your subordinates!"
"In the future, we'll rely on you, big brother!"
After Dongzi was shocked for a moment, he quickly followed along, flattering Xu Zhiwu.
The ability to control metal was much more powerful than his X-ray vision ability.
Any firearm made of metal would be rendered useless immediately!
He had been hesitant to bring people to raid the opposite supermarket because he was afraid of those weapons and equipment. Now that Xu Zhiwu could deal with these troubles, capturing the supermarket would be a matter of minutes!
For a moment, he was both fearful and excited!
"Stop the chitchat and call them all down!"
"We're going to the opposite supermarket now!"
"After we take the supermarket, what do you want to eat?"
Seeing that Dongzi was smart enough, Xu Zhiwu hurriedly urged him.
With someone who had X-ray vision by his side, he had no worries about Chu Nan plotting any tricks.
"Yes, big brother!"
Dongzi didn't dare to delay and quickly made a call to Strongman upstairs, asking them to gather downstairs and stop looking for food.
"By the way, big brother, does your ability consume energy?"
"My X-ray vision ability, I can only use it for a few minutes. After that, I become completely powerless and can't see anything!"
"After eating, I have to sleep for half a day to recover!"
After hanging up the phone, Dongzi smirked and started discussing the topic of abilities with Xu Zhiwu.
Actually, he wanted to figure out Xu Zhiwu's background, so he deliberately started the conversation, preparing for a possible fallout in the future!
"I can use this ability for about half an hour!"
Xu Zhiwu casually made up a statement.
He didn't reveal his true abilities and instead boasted in a serious manner.
In fact, just like Dongzi, he could only use his abilities for a few minutes before exhausting his energy.
After discovering his awakened abilities yesterday, he had a good meal and slept for half a day to recover.
...
"They all evolved?"
In the early morning, Chu Nan was awakened by a loud roar. When he went downstairs to take a look, he saw an army of hundreds of zombies lined up, waiting for him to review them.
After some communication through gestures and signs, he learned that these were all zombies that had evolved and advanced after eating the flesh last night.
Last night's feast not only allowed the eight higher-level zombies to advance, but also resulted in over eight hundred zombies producing crystals in their brains.
"Heh, heh...!"
The army nodded eagerly, and then waved their hands behind them. In an instant, hundreds of zombies all knelt down.
Although Chu Nan couldn't understand what they were saying, he could see gratitude in their eyes.
If he guessed correctly, they were thanking him for the feast he gave them!
"So many zombies advanced!"
Looking at the densely packed higher-level zombies in front of him, Chu Nan couldn't help but feel amazed.
After more than a thousand zombies consumed the flesh of over two thousand people, half of them evolved!
If there was enough flesh, couldn't he cultivate over eight hundred Zombie Kings?
"Alright!"
"Get up!"
"Let the zombies that didn't advance go out. Let them take the leftover bones from yesterday with them!"
"All the advanced zombies stay behind!"
"To avoid scaring people, you will stay on the first floor of the underground warehouse during the day and come out to guard the courtyard at night!"
After a moment of contemplation, Chu Nan gave orders to the army through gestures and signs.
"Heh, heh...!"
The army seemed to understand his meaning and turned around to get to work.
