Chapter 114: Bloodline Sensing

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Nothing happened along the way.

Later that night, Lu Ming finally returned home and after freshening up, he lay on the bed and closed his eyes to sleep.

He had always slept well.

Correspondingly, he woke up early.

Day 107 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Monday.

He woke up early in the morning and started farming his attributes, so Lu Mings life returned to its original trajectory.

The events of last night were just a small interlude for Lu Ming, hardly worth mentioning just like the time he went to the Zhang family gathering place to collect supplies before leaving.

But for everyone else, everything that happened last night was like a boulder thrown into a lake, causing ripples throughout.

Sister Rose! Im here!

Lolita!

It had only been a day since Duan Mei and Lolita were separated, but it was as if a lifetime had pa.s.sed when they met again.

The woman and the girl hugged warmly, celebrating their narrow escape from death the day before.

There was no need to repeat what happened to Duan Mei.

On Lolitas side, it was also a close call.

There were convoys, firearms, and a clear route.

Although the fleeing team of Dragon Mountain encountered sporadic zombie attacks along the way, they were relatively small and did not have much of an impactthat afternoon, they arrived at an official safe house. Gao Junyi decided to rest and wait for rescue.

Early this morning, the rescue team led by Bai Tianyu and Duan Mei successfully arrived.

I plan to bring the survivors from Dragon Mountain to your side. I hope you can accept us.

Duan Mei said solemnly to Gao Junyi, causing Gao Junyi to beam.

Were all Chinese, so theres no need to talk about acceptance. In any case, we were one family before, and we are still one family now!

On the other hand, Gao Junyi felt a little strange about Duan Meis change in att.i.tude. However, when he heard Bai Tianyu quietly saying, Brother Lu has made a move, all his doubts were gone.

Absolute power brought absolute authority.

Using Lu Mings strength to deceive and cheat, such power of the officials was far superior to that of Dragon Mountain. The officials would not confront Dragon Mountain directly, but Dragon Mountain had to be tactful, right?

They set off for the official shelter.

Along the way, Gao Junyi did not discuss any serious matters with Duan Mei. They just chatted to build a closer relations.h.i.+p.

After all, the questions that needed to be asked would have answers sooner or later. Can a cooked duck still fly away?

Day 108 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Tuesday.

From yesterday morning until now, Duan Mei had roughly investigated the official shelter.

Although she could not claim to have a comprehensive understanding, Duan Mei felt that this place was indeed an official shelter, and it had not yet been corrupted.

This made Duan Mei make a decision.

In Huo Shengs office, looking at the somewhat uneasy Duan Mei and Lolita, Huo Sheng smiled and said, Dont be nervous; just treat it as a normal chat.

As he spoke, he handed Duan Mei and Lolita two cans of c.o.ke and continued, I thought you would come to see me in two more days.

Duan Mei thought for a moment and said, We cant wait any longer.

Hearing this, Huo Shengs smile faded slightly, So, were in big trouble and it will come soon, right?

Without Duan Mei having to say a word, Lolita on the side nodded her head vigorously.

This made Huo Sheng sigh softly and he said, Then lets talk.

Before we talk about all this, I have to introduce Lorita first.

Shes the key to everything.

Lolita, an American, turned nine years old this year.

Her father was the general manager of a well-known international corporation in the Huaxia region. Due to work reasons, he had to stay in Nanxiang City all year round. Therefore, Lolita had followed her father and lived in Nanxiang for several years.

Her father pa.s.sed away the day after the apocalypse. Lolita hid for a few days before she met me.

Speaking of this, Duan Mei and Lolita sighed.

Huo Sheng also listened attentively, though it was apparent that this information was irrelevant; one had to wait for the emotions to settle.

Soon, Duan Mei got to the point.

The key is not Lolita and her father, but Lolitas mother.

Loritas mother was also from America. She was a soldier and was stationed in a military district in New York City all year round.

Huo Sheng instantly understood when he heard this.

A month before the apocalypse in Nanxiang, over in New York

Duan Mei nodded, Thats right.

According to little Lolita, her mother became an Awakened long before the apocalypse, and she had awakened a unique superpower.

Her superpower is called Bloodline Sensing.

Bloodline sensing was not a very high-level superpower.

Its effect was simply the ability to communicate and even transmit images to those connected by bloodline.

However, the special thing about this superpower was that the range of bloodline sensing was extremely vast, and it ignored the obstruction of the Black Mist!

So Lolita knows so much because of this.

Its not that she knows that much herself, but because her mother knows a lot.

Huo Sheng could not help but look at Lolita.

New York, Nanxiang

The disaster in New York occurred a month before it reached Nanxiang.

On the surface, the disasters in both places were probably very similar.

This meant that everything that happened in New York was a highly relevant reference for Nanxiang. The value of this information was undoubtedly significant.

It was precisely because of the guidance from Lolitas mother that Lolita managed to survive on her own in the apocalypse for almost a week.

It was also because of this that I could successfully become a Level 4 Awakened and deal with Chang Yis troubles.

And thats why Chang Yi knows so much. Because he eavesdropped on Lolitas thoughts.

At this point, everything became clear.

Huo Sheng rested his chin on his hands and looked at Lolita solemnly.

So, Lolita, are you willing to share what you and your mother know?

Lolita just nodded, I do.

The apocalypse brought an end to the division of countries and races in the world.

This was a catastrophe for the entire world. Both Lolita and her mother were willing to share the information they had.

But my mother said she wanted your help.

Huo Sheng nodded slightly and did not ask in detail.

It was obvious that New York was facing a lot of trouble. Otherwise, Lolitas mother would not have sent out a distress signal to Nanxiang, a month after the apocalypse began.

Day 109 of the Apocalypse Calendar, Wednesday.

Lu Ming had just finished his morning exercise and was about to take a short break for lunch when he saw Huo Sheng visiting again in the dining room.

After nodding, Lu Ming sat down, nibbling on the birds wing while listening to Huo Sheng speak.

They had known each other for a while, and coupled with Huo Shengs intelligence, they had developed a certain understanding between them. This understanding was that unless it was a major matter, Huo Sheng would not visit; and if he did, it would be during Liu Mings meal time.

After all, Lu Mings time was precious.

As for Lu Ming, he had actually begun to like interacting with Huo Sheng.

Because he always brought important news.

So Lu Ming listened as Huo Sheng started to speak..
