End of the World Cycle

In the afternoon, Xie Qin was arranged to live in the girls' dormitory. Pei Yue was kind-hearted and happened to have a place in their dormitory, so she took Xie Qin to their dormitory.

Although the dormitory conditions were not very good, it was very clean. Four of the six people living in the room were Pei Yue's classmates. They were in the third year of high school at the end of the world, and now they were basically 20 years old. From this point of view, Pei Yue should be around years old, but she couldn't tell her age because she was wearing a school uniform and a ponytail.

In addition to Pei Yue, there is another first-level wood-type ability user named Zhou Linlin. Although she is a girl, her wood-type ability has an innate advantage in the rain forest, so she is a member of the school's material team. Seeing Xie Qin coming, the other three quickly helped to clean up a lower bunk for Xie Qin. Girls like gossip and want to know Xie Qin's background.

But when they heard that Xie Qin was speechless, they all began to feel distressed. Zhou Linlin even rummaged through the supplies she had searched for a long time and found a box of throat lozenges and handed it to Xie Qin.

Even though Xie Qin was indifferent, she couldn't help but smile when faced with so much kindness. Seeing Xie Qin smiling so cutely, the others liked her even more. Rubbing Xie Qin's hair and feeling that it was dirty, the three of them were busy helping Xie Qin, who was unable to move, take a bath.

Xie Qin wanted to refuse, but she couldn't stand the sour smell on her body. She just let them do what they wanted. When the three of them looked at the dense wounds on Xie Qin's body, they couldn't help but gasp. They could only wipe them carefully. Xie Qin endured the pain and finally finished taking a bath.

Xie Qin was too thin, and none of the four people had suitable clothes. One of the girls directly altered Xie Qin's clothes. Seeing these four people busying themselves for her, Xie Qin couldn't help but think of her classmates. Although they couldn't be said to be very good to her, the place where she experienced the most kindness since she was a child was school.

When she returns, she will repay these people. Principal Huang who carried her down the mountain, Aunt Pu, the school doctor who took care of her for a week, and these people today. They saved her life, and no matter how she repays them, it is not too much. Maybe one day in the future, when she finds the safest place, these people may become the first residents there.

That night, when Xie Qin felt the control of a strange mental power, he suddenly woke up. It was the teacher Zhang from the day. The fourth-level mental power was a far cry from the third-level. Xie Qin easily captured the man's movements.

The third-order mental power stopped very accurately from the first floor to the third floor. That was where the girls from the junior high school lived. During the day, I was originally arranged to stay on the first floor, but Pei Yue smiled and said that she would take care of me, so she carried me to the fourth floor. Xie Qin couldn't help but think of the way the man looked at me during the day.

After a while, Xie Qin felt something moving. Xie Qin staggered towards the window and just happened to see the dormitory exit. Three little girls walked out of the dormitory building one after another as if sleepwalking.

It was two o'clock in the morning. The dormitory building was completely dark, and the dormitory manager had long been mentally controlled and unconscious. No one noticed that the little girl had left.

Xie Qin frowned as he watched the three people slowly walking towards the laboratory building. Pei Yue's voice sounded beside him at an inopportune time.

"Why aren't you asleep yet?"

Xie Qin withdrew his mental energy from following the three girls and nudged Pei Yue beside him, motioning her to look.

"Huh? Where are they going?" Pei Yue also scratched his hair in confusion.

Xie Qin took two steps to the desk and started writing.

(Take me with them.)

"Huh? What? Why are you following them?"

(I suspect something happened to them.)

When Pei Yue heard that something might happen to her schoolmate, she didn't hesitate. She carried Xie Qin on her back and prepared to leave without even changing her clothes. The noise was quite loud and the other three people in the dormitory woke up.

"What are you going to do?" Zhou Linlin asked, poking her head out from the upper bunk.

"It's too late to explain. I'll tell you when I get back." After saying that, Pei Yue carried Xie Qin on her back and left.

Sure enough, after going down to the first floor, Pei Yue and Xie Qin found that the dormitory manager was staring at the direction of the gate without any reaction, as if she couldn't see them. Xie Qin had no way to explain, so she just patted Pei Yue on the shoulder and signaled her to leave quickly.

Along the way, Xie Qin wove a mental network, and Zhang didn't notice their presence at all. Soon, the two of them caught up with three girls. Pei Yue recognized them at a glance as three first-grade girls, who were only fourteen years old. All three of them were very beautiful.

Pei Yue seemed to realize the problem in an instant. The three people were obviously controlled and had no independent consciousness. However, Xie Qin couldn't speak and Pei Yue didn't dare to ask aloud. She could only follow quietly to see what was going on.

The three of them entered the lounge at the end of the third floor, and the door was heavily closed. Fortunately, there was a small piece of glass on the door of the lounge, so Pei Yue, who was tall, could see clearly what was going on inside even if she stood on tiptoe.

When Pei Yue carried Xie Qin to the door of the lounge, she almost screamed when she saw the scene inside. Fortunately, Xie Qin was quick to cover Pei Yue's mouth.

The scene inside made Xie Qin feel sick. The man called Teacher Zhang was naked, standing in front of the three girls with an obscene smile. The three girls were already standing there stiffly, without any intention of resisting. Seeing that the scum was about to succeed, Pei Yue could no longer bear it and let go of Xie Qin on her back and wanted to rush in, but suddenly found that she could not move.

Xie Qin took out a pen and paper from his pocket.

(You go find the principal. I'll stay here.)

Pei Yue shook her head and took the pen and wrote (No, it’s too dangerous.)

In the past, Xie Qin would have dealt with this kind of scum directly, but now he was in school. During this week, Xie Qin found that the students here were very well protected and had not seen the cruelty of the end of the world at all. The school had its own education model. Xie Qin was afraid that his killing would disrupt the balance of the school, so he wanted to hand the matter over to the school leaders and solve it their way.

Xie Qin looked at Pei Yue with a determined look. Pei Yue thought there was no other way, so she could only run to find Principal Huang. After whispering to Xie Qin to be careful, she quickly left the laboratory building.

Fortunately, the principal lived in the boys' dormitory not far to the west. When the dormitory manager heard Pei Yue say that she had something urgent to discuss with Principal Huang, she quickly went to wake up Principal Huang.

Principal Huang probably listened to Pei Yue's words and was only thinking about the safety of the children. He called a few steady teachers and asked them to rush over with Pei Yue.

Xie Qin, who stayed in the experimental building, hated such scenes the most. As soon as Pei Yue left, Xie Qin stopped the scum's actions. The four of them stayed motionless in the lounge until they heard hurried footsteps. Xie Qin withdrew the mental control. When the scum heard someone coming and wanted to control these people, he found that his mental control was ineffective.

For some unknown reason, the three girls who had lost control also woke up. Seeing the horrific scene in front of them, they screamed in fear. Hearing the children's screams, Principal Huang and his group ran faster. In just ten seconds, they rushed into the lounge.

Principal Huang almost fainted when he saw what was happening. Several people hurriedly used clothes to cover the three children, and the scum was quickly pressed to the ground.

The scene was in chaos. Pei Yue, who wanted to understand the situation, was asked to carry Xie Qin back to the dormitory. The scum who was pinned to the ground kept trying to control the people present with his mind, but he couldn't use his supernatural power and didn't know why. After discovering the scum's strong resistance, Xie Qin was worried that he would not be able to control this person well after he left.

Simply controlled everyone, slowly got off Pei Yue's back, and walked in front of the scum. The third-level mental power should not be wasted.

According to experience, it would take five minutes to drain it all, but in order to prevent this person from discovering it, he had to leave him with a first-level ability. Once he inhaled too much, his body would have problems, and not only himself, but other people would be able to find out that something was wrong with him. After all, Xie Qin also wanted to see how the school would deal with such a person.

Everyone was distracted for a moment. After Pei Yue carried Xie Qin away, the original third-level psychic had become a first-level psychic. A first-level psychic could not control the thoughts of a second-level psychic. There were Principal Huang and Teacher Gu who were not under his control.

The two soon discovered that Teacher Zhang was a psychic, and they were shocked. They hadn't discovered it for such a long time, and if they hadn't been caught by the students today, who knows how many children would have been abused by him.

The case was only investigated for one day, and the news was brought back by Pei Yue. Because Pei Yue was the whistleblower, the school did not hide it, but did not make it public for the girls' self-esteem.

Pei Yue only knew that after the scumbag awakened his superpowers, he either tricked or controlled more than 40 junior high school girls and abused them. This person was a pervert and only liked children. He had no interest in those over 16 years old, and the ones who suffered were all children. His third-level psychic superpowers were all upgraded after he discovered the crystal cores in the plants and ate them.

Therefore, the school did not discover his identity as a superpower. This person did bad things quietly. However, in recent years, the scumbag has also devoted himself to the research of mutant plants and made considerable contributions, and has not done anything to harm the lives of children.

Even the school leaders couldn't bring themselves to kill him directly, after all, they had been colleagues for more than 20 years. In the end, everyone voted to expel him.

Xie Qin always felt that letting such a scumbag go was not a good decision. But she had no decision-making position. In Xie Qin's view, this was other people's business.

In half a month, Xie Qin's voice basically recovered. His voice was a little hoarse, but he could speak. He could also walk on his own, but his foot was disabled due to the burns. He walked with a limp and had scars of all sizes on his body. The nerve damage in his left hand had caused permanent disability, and his entire left hand had lost its grip strength.

Xie Qin found herself amused, but fortunately she was still alive. She could still go home to see her mother, brother, and Uncle Liu Bo. Her family was still there. As long as she was not dead, that was all.

After her powers were restored and she was full of energy, Xie Qin planned to leave. She had to go get her car back. She had hidden it in a small cave at the foot of the mountain where the accident happened. She carried it up there by herself, so it was impossible for anyone to find it. She could leave after she found her car.

She will come back here. Through observations during this period of time, she found that the location of the school was not good. Although it was the best place to avoid natural disasters, it was in a dangerous area due to the beast tide.

When the mutant animals gradually mature and the beast king begins to appear, countless beasts will begin to attack places where humans live. Places like this, which are full of children and have weak military defenses, are definitely the first choice. In addition, the school is located in a tropical rainforest climate zone. This is where the beast tide first gathers.

And the forest is full of large mutant animals. There will be no chance to hide at that time. According to the current development situation, the beast tide mentioned in the book may also appear earlier. Xie Qin roughly estimated that there should be three years left. In three years, he must prepare a base.

When Xie Qin left, Principal Huang was the most worried. During this period of time, Xie Qin knew very well that Principal Huang was a good person. He was wholeheartedly for the children, supporting the school with his own strength and protecting these children. He hardly let them suffer any hardship, and they spent the last few years of the apocalypse in peace.

"I'll find two second-level psychics to take you there. You've saved your life, so you can't lose it again."

"Principal Huang, don't worry. I got into trouble because I was careless. I can go back the same way. I have a car, so it won't take me long. Besides, there are more students in the school, and there are not many people with special abilities. If you let me take two second-level ones, what about the rest of the children?"

"this..."

"Have you ever wondered why I appeared alone in such a dangerous forest? The First Base is 2,000 kilometers away from here, and I came here alone."

"You? You are also a mutant?"

Xie Qin lowered his head and smiled, then raised his hand and a bunch of blindingly red fireballs condensed in his hand.

"Fire...fire-type mutant?" Principal Huang looked at Xie Qin in surprise.

"Why can't I feel that you are a superpower? I should be able to see it."

"You are a second-level psychic. You cannot see psychics of higher levels than you. For example, Mr. Zhang."

"Are you a third-level fire-type mutant?"

Xie Qin neither admitted nor refuted. Her ability was too special, and she didn't want to expose herself when there were still so many unknowns in this world, even if the other person was someone she admired.

She didn't want to appear on the operating table of the institute for any reason. After all, she had suffered too much because of carelessness. In the days to come, Xie Qin would only remember two words (caution).

Xie Qin left. She took the food that the school prepared for her. After all, it had been so many days, the power in the car must have been cut off, and the food she prepared would have spoiled. She had to take the food with her.

The school was more than thirty kilometers away from the mountain where he parked his car. Although the school had a car, it had run out of gas long ago. Finally, he got a mountain bike and slowly drove towards where he parked his car.
