The next morning.
Outside the window, the Red Mist swirled, flowing like liquid.
Lin Lang looked at the girl sleeping beside him.
Her fair, flawless skin glowed pink under the reflection of the Red Mist.
[Lü Suran]
[Attractiveness: 9.5]
[Recharge: 1 time]
[Loyalty: 30%]
[Return Multiplier: 800]
A loyalty of 30%!
An 800 times return multiplier!
It actually surpassed Gu Fei directly!
"Such a good girl!"
Lin Lang couldn't help but reach out to gently stroke her face.
"Mm~"
But she woke up.
As soon as she opened her eyes.
Their gazes met.
Lü Suran's big eyes were filled with glistening things, her voice was playful: "Bad guy."
Lin Lang said, "Is this what makes me bad? I haven't even used my worse tricks yet!"
Considering Lü Suran's heart condition, Lin Lang had already been quite restrained.
Otherwise.
If she had the energy to say a single word, it would be Lin Lang's negligence! "What should we do now?"
She stared at Lin Lang.
But her eyes had lost the previous confusion and panic.
Instead, there was calmness.
Even a hint of schadenfreude, as if to say, "I'll just quietly watch your performance."
After a night of reflection, she was almost certain—
She had fallen for Lin Lang's trick again! What bugs had come in?
It was clearly just an excuse for him to sleep with her!
But she didn't blame him.
Perhaps, just as Lin Lang had said yesterday—
They were destined to die in this disaster, maybe today, maybe tomorrow.
Before dying, what wishes did she have?
Besides wanting to see the outside world— but that wish was probably already impossible to fulfill, as the outside was now filled with Red Mist.
She had another wish.
She hoped to meet a boy she liked and fall in love.
Lin Lang had brought her supplies when she had none.
When she needed medicine, he would change her bandages in the group and then bring them over.
Whenever danger approached, he always protected her first— even if that danger was fabricated by him.
This was the love she longed for.
To find someone willing to give for her, someone whose eyes were filled with her.
And now.
She had gotten her wish.
...
Lü Suran got out of bed and found new clothes from the wardrobe.
Then she struggled to move the bedside table that was blocking the door.
She turned back to look at Lin Lang.
Lin Lang was sitting on the bed, watching her the whole time.
He shrugged.
Lü Suran understood, so she pressed down the doorknob and opened the door.
Outside.
Everything was as usual.
The doors and windows were tightly shut.
In the living room, everything was in its place; the shoes at the door, the cushions on the sofa, the cups on the coffee table, all showed no signs of having been moved.
Lü Suran proudly raised her head at Lin Lang.
Indicating that she had seen through his scheme.
Lin Lang smiled.
He got out of bed, put on his clothes, and walked outside, wrapping Lü Suran in his arms.
"Let's go to my place; your floor is too low, completely shrouded in Red Mist, you can't see anything."
Lü Suran said:
"Now the whole world is covered in Red Mist; it doesn't matter where we go, does it?"
Lin Lang replied nonchalantly:
"Whether the Red Mist disperses or not, one day, I will take you outside."
His tone was casual.
But Lü Suran heard something in it, something called a vow, very firm.
"Outside?"
Her eyes revealed longing:
"Where exactly is outside? The neighborhood? Mingyue City? Or across the ocean?"
"Wherever it is, as long as it's a place you want to go, I will accompany you."
Lin Lang looked at her.
She also looked up at Lin Lang, feeling her gaze turning into syrup...
Lin Lang smiled slightly: "All meals and accommodation covered?"
"Take me with you."
They matched each other's slogans.
The two exchanged smiles.
At that moment.
In the corner of the living room, a fire-red centipede over a meter long crawled out!
"Hiss—"
It made a sound, its countless tiny legs surged like waves, crawling towards Lü Suran.
But the next second! With a loud bang! The glass of the balcony shattered! A green branch broke through the window, like a spear, piercing the centipede directly!
Then the branch curled! Flinging the bug out of the window!
The entire process took less than a second!
Lü Suran only heard the sound of the window breaking, and then a whoosh! When she turned to look.
The window had a hole in it, and nothing else was there.
Lin Lang calmly said: "See, being on a low floor is troublesome; who knows which kid downstairs is playing with a slingshot, breaking your glass."
...
[Lin Lang]
[Combat Power: S]
[Physical Body: Four Enhancements]
[Superpower: Intuition (Level 9); Spirit Wood (Level 3)]
Lin Lang supported Lü Suran, slowly walking down the hallway.
At this moment.
His physical body.
Was quietly undergoing changes.
A series of popping sounds came from within him.
When Lü Suran asked what the sound was, Lin Lang just said it was his osteoporosis, brushing it off.
Then he discovered that he had actually grown a few centimeters taller! His shoulders seemed to have become broader and sturdier.
His physique was gradually evolving from an ordinary person towards the golden ratio of the human body! His skin was as tough as cowhide, impervious to blades and bullets! This was just what could be seen with the naked eye.
In places he couldn't see—
His bones had turned a jade-like color, crystal clear, as hard as diamonds! His meridians, over a hundred of them throughout his body, were all unobstructed, not just the Ren and Du meridians! His blood contained a powerful life force!
Even more astonishing was! At this moment, when he breathed in, he could clearly feel!
In addition to air, there was a strange energy.
It was entering his body with each breath, flowing through his meridians...
Finally condensing in the lower abdomen— this is what people call the Dantian! It is also where the "superpower core" resides!
And this energy could perfectly merge into the superpower core, nourishing it!
Lin Lang could clearly feel.
His superpower core was gradually becoming stronger.
Though slow, it was indeed happening! The more direct benefit was that his Superpower, Intuition, and Spirit Wood were also slowly increasing.
Regarding this.
Lin Lang had a bold idea—
The "mysterious power" contained in the air might be the endless Red Mist from the outside world! And now! He could absorb the power of the Red Mist to become stronger, just like those ferocious beasts outside!
Without having to rely entirely on Superpower Fruit anymore!...
At this moment.
In Happiness Residential Complex, Building B, Unit 1.
In room 3003, the pale-faced Shen Chuchu was lying on the bed, tightly holding onto another woman's hand.
Crying out: "That vixen stole my man!"
"Occupying the supplies that originally belonged to me!"
"Now my mom has also been eaten by monsters, and I have nothing left!"
"Sister Lingyu, you are also a girl, and a Superpowered individual! You will definitely help me, right?"
Opposite Shen Chuchu.
Sat a beautiful and charming mature woman.
She wore a black bodycon dress, her hair styled up, showcasing her voluptuous figure and noble aura! Every gesture exuded mature charm! After listening to Shen Chuchu's words, she frowned slightly: "So that Lin Bulang in the group is your man!"
"He already has a family, yet he openly takes in girls in the group, that's really too much! A modern-day Chen Shimei!"
"Don't worry! I will definitely seek justice for you!"
Then.
She took out her phone, found Lin Bulang in the group, and sent him a message: [Lin Bulang, your woman is in my hands!]
