8 month 30 day.

The authorities finally announced publicly that the mortality rate for people infected with an unknown virus after being caught in the rain is 100%, and called on the public to stay at home as much as possible, and if they must go out, remember to take all-round protection.

As soon as the notice came out, the whole country was in chaos, and residents began to rush to buy all kinds of supplies. Because of the chaos, local officials began to step in to maintain order, and in the afternoon of the same day, local governments issued regulations requiring everyone to stay at home.

Cheng Jing and others also received a new notice from the headquarters: when necessary, cooperate with Qingyun City officials to maintain city order.

On the morning of the 31st, Jiang Nian, who had been in a coma for three days due to a high fever, finally woke up. Just like in his previous life, he awakened his purification ability.

Purification belongs to the healing auxiliary system, but it is not as powerful as the healing ability. It looks useless and usually rarely attracts attention.

But Jiang Nian himself knew that among so many superpowers, only purification was effective against the zombie virus, and it was very sensitive to energy fluctuations.

Moreover, in his previous life, when his supernatural crystal core was about to be removed, he experienced a severe drug shock. The strong pressure caused his supernatural powers to mutate and new properties emerged.

But at that time he wanted to die and didn't want to save Chen Yue, so he didn't say it. He just didn't know whether Chen Yue, who inherited his supernatural crystal core, could discover that attribute.

"Purification is good. At least in the end times, we will be safer eating than others. Didn't you say that some people will awaken psychic abilities? I'm not afraid with you around."

Cheng Jing said this while holding the person in his arms. His ability was of the strong attack type, so he was always on the front line and was not surprised by anything he encountered. Although the ability of purification seemed useless, it was the most unexpected in his eyes.

Jiang Nian smiled and nodded:

"Thank you, Brother Jing~"

You see, his family background is still good at comforting people, which makes him feel super awesome.

In his previous life, the only opportunity he had to use his supernatural powers was to treat Chen Yue and relieve the zombie poison. He had no chance to do anything else, but he would definitely be able to do it in this life.

Cheng Jing's expression was serious:

"I'm serious. Leave the external affairs to me. You just need to support me behind me."

"it is good."

Jiang Nian also nodded seriously, and then said:

"Brother Jing, I don't want to make my special ability public unless I have to. Otherwise, I want to use it secretly to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Cheng Jing respects him:

"Okay, then let's keep it a secret and not tell anyone until we really need to make it public."

"Ah."

"..."

After taking care of Jiang Nian's meal, Cheng Jing held an online meeting with Huang Qian and others, asking them to be prepared to deal with chaos at any time, to take care of themselves first and others second, and to act within their capabilities even if they were officially commissioned.

After the authorities issued a stay-at-home order, everything became eerily quiet except for the hospitals.

Towards evening, Cheng Jing received an official call asking him and his team to report to the designated location in case of emergency.

Cheng Jing put on his protective suit and asked Jiang Nian for the ring before leaving:

"The rain will stop tomorrow, and those dead people will be resurrected soon. I will go out tonight to report and fill up the rings. I will probably be back in the early morning. You don't have to wait for me. Eat and sleep on time to recover your strength."

"Yeah, I know, just be careful."

Although Jiang Nian was worried, he didn't say much. Cheng Jing's profession was special and he certainly couldn't refuse the official call.

After going downstairs, Cheng Jing and Huang Qian went to report together. In order to prevent any special circumstances, each drove a car.

Jiang Nian slowly trained and adapted to his special abilities at home.

Although he was in a coma for three days due to a high fever, he did not feel any discomfort after waking up except for being a little hungry and sleepy. In particular, the purification ability made his entire physical condition better, and even some sub-health symptoms disappeared.

Increasing exercise will definitely improve your physical fitness, which will also help the evolution of your superpowers.

After all, the strength of superpowers is directly proportional to one's physical fitness and mental strength. The stronger the physical fitness and the better the mental strength, the faster the superpowers will evolve.

Jiang Nian tried the maximum range of his ability:

The radiation is roughly a circle with a diameter of 3 meters, and the one-way usage distance is also about 3 meters.

In his previous life, he did not have the opportunity to exercise much, and under the influence of drugs, the limit he could reach was 500 meters. It was also at that time that he discovered that his superpowers had mutated.

Jiang Nian asked himself that although he was not as powerful as Cheng Jing and was determined to cling to Cheng Jing's thigh, he was still a 183cm tall man with a tall body, long legs and young vigor. It was really inappropriate for him to be protected by Cheng Jing unilaterally.

In my previous life, I was tied up in the basement like a dog and died with regrets. In this life, I must stand up straight.

……

Cheng Jing came back when it was almost dawn. The rain had stopped. Jiang Nian, who had slept restlessly all night, fell into a deep sleep only after he came back.

Cheng Jing put their cell phones on silent mode, and when they woke up from a good sleep, the world outside had changed.

No one contacted them except Huang Qian and a few others. Even the head office and the official contact group had no information. The end of the world had arrived and everyone was busy taking care of themselves.

The news on mobile phones also reported everywhere about the dead being resurrected and becoming zombies to attack humans, and the people attacked were quickly infected and turned into zombies.

There were terrified screams and noises coming from downstairs. Cheng Jing opened the window and looked out, and found that an old man who was originally using a cane had turned into a zombie and was chasing his nanny and biting her, and there were several others fighting nearby.

Breakfast was a simple toast with poached eggs and milk. After eating, Jiang Nian leaned on the sofa, scrolling through his phone and muttering to himself:

"It's only the first day. The peak season will come at the end of the month. However, the water and electricity will be cut off in half a month. The military and government will give priority to rescuing schools and those with special identities and professions, as well as their families, and then start organizing the construction of apocalyptic rescue bases..."

"There will be hail in mid-October, and then the temperature will drop and snow will fall, and it will be extremely cold, and many people will die... When the extreme cold ends in mid-March, military rescue teams will set out from various bases to search for survivors. In other words, from now until April next year, ordinary people without backgrounds will have to rely on themselves and the meager assistance of local governments..."

Cheng Jing glanced at him sideways and asked casually:

“Will we build a rescue base or shelter here?”

"There are none in Qingyun City, but there are some in the suburbs of other neighboring cities..."

Jiang Nian answered without hesitation. He subconsciously raised his head and met Cheng Jing's deep gaze. Only then did he realize that he had stuttered. He smiled awkwardly:

"Uh...Brother Jing..."

Cheng Jing came over and sat down beside him, holding him in his arms, stroking the ring on his left ring finger, sighed and asked:

"Jiang Nian, can you tell me the truth? How do you know all this? I would rather you say you can predict the future than believe you are dreaming."

It was like following the script he said.

"..."

Jiang Nian lowered his eyes and said nothing. Recently, he had intentionally or unintentionally relaxed his vigilance and talked nonsense. His original intention was to find a chance to confess to Cheng Jing, but now that the other party really asked him, he was very scared.
