Chapter 11: The Heart of People in the Apocalypse 2

After finishing the steaming hot buns, Lin Baobao used her ability to pour a cup of water for everyone and thanked the Lou siblings with the others.

The apocalypse had only descended for half a month, and although order was collapsing, the basic morals formed by years of civilized society still existed. Especially for this group of well-educated college students, they still couldn't do things like eating someone else's food without thanking them. They didn't think it was a matter of course.

After everyone got to know each other, Lou Dian suddenly said, "What are your plans next?"

Everyone looked at him. From entering the door until now, Lou Dian had only spoken a few times. He sat there calmly and coldly, as elegant as a noble son from a comic book. His clean and gentle voice would definitely be sought after by women before the apocalypse. But after the apocalypse, with his looks and abilities, he looked like a pretty boy who relied on women. Because of the existence of Wei Xian, the space ability user, they knew the practicality of space abilities and didn't have much hope for the fighting ability of space ability users. (You will regret it!)

However, as soon as he spoke, although his voice was very gentle, his expression was so calm that it was cold. They didn't know why they felt a chill down their spines, and they couldn't help but feel a little more careful. They didn't dare to be as casual as they were with Lou Ling.

Hearing his words, everyone looked at each other and then at Xi Mufeng.

Lou Dian continued gently, "I heard from Xiaoling that you are all students from other places. I wonder if there is anyone else in your family?"

The gentle Lou Dian was very deceptive, making people think that he was a good man. Coupled with his outstanding appearance, it was easy for people to let down their guard.

Wei Xian's family was in the capital. Xi Mufeng and Huang Zhiling's families were both in S City. After the outbreak of the apocalypse, they fell into a coma. Except for Huang Zhiling, who had a phone call with her family, they couldn't get through again. This made them very anxious, but there was nothing they could do. Chen Kaiwei was from a nearby county and it only took three hours to get there by car on the highway. He couldn't get through to his family on the phone, so things might be bad.

Xi Mufeng was the leader of the group. Before coming here, he had already made plans. Facing Lou Ling's brother, he naturally didn't hide anything and said, "Although I don't know how long this disaster will last, we plan to go to the capital. Huang Zhiling and I have relatives in the capital, and our families should go to the capital too. But before that, we promised to accompany Chen Kaiwei back to his hometown to take a look. If we are all together then, we will go to the capital together."

The capital was the political and economic center of the entire China. It had always had the strongest armed forces. Even if there were zombies, they believed that it would be under control in a very short time. Xi Mufeng and the others had a good idea, and it was human nature. But don't forget how many people there were in China. Everyone wanted to go to the capital. How many people could one capital accommodate?

Lou Dian didn't say anything but looked at these young people who had just evolved from teenagers to young adults. The childishness on their faces hadn't faded yet. They definitely couldn't imagine how desperate this apocalypse would make people. Now was just the beginning. Before the zombies evolved, everyone felt that the apocalypse was nothing more than this, with a playful sense of ease.

Lin Baobao interrupted, "Dianxia, why don't you and Lingling go to the capital with us? The capital has the best armed forces in the country and will definitely be able to resist the zombies."

Lou Ling didn't answer but turned to look at Lou Dian. Seeing her like this, she knew that it was up to her brother to decide.

Lou Dian smiled and said, "We have relatives in the capital, and we do plan to go find him, but not now." After that, Lou Dian added, "Have you listened to the radio? Now many places have established safe bases one after another. In a month at the latest, the government will send people to the cities to pick up the survivors to the safe bases."

Hearing this, everyone was excited and full of confidence in the future, regardless of anything else. They asked about the safe bases.

Regarding this disaster, although the order was disrupted, the country's reaction was still very fast. No matter the reason, the government departments quickly organized themselves and established safe bases. However, because the apocalypse had only descended for half a month, the facilities and management of the safe bases were not yet complete. In addition, the zombies were not powerful, and people were still watching. They did not respond to the government's positive call to leave their safe homes and go to the safe bases.

After learning about the safe bases, everyone was excited and full of confidence in the future.

Seeing that it was getting dark, although it was a bit unnecessary for them to come here, they were still quite thoughtful. Lou Dian arranged for them to rest in the guest rooms on the second floor and said that everything would be discussed tomorrow. His and Lou Ling's bedrooms were on the third floor.

Xi Mufeng originally wanted to talk to Lou Ling, but seeing Lou Dian pull her away, he could only close his mouth. Huang Zhiling had been paying attention to him. Seeing this, she couldn't help but sneer. She knew that Lin Baobao had always wanted to set up Lou Ling and Xi Mufeng, and Xi Mufeng also had that intention. It was a pity that Lou Ling looked weak but was actually pretentious. She pretended not to understand and had never looked at Xi Mufeng directly. Now that the apocalypse had arrived, Lou Ling, like her, was an ordinary person. She didn't know how long she could live in this apocalypse. Ordinary people were always looked down upon.

When Lou Ling was pulled back to her room, she was still thinking about the base and how Lou Dian didn't seem to be in a coma for three days like those people said when the apocalypse came…

Lou Dian took out clothes from the closet and asked, "Do you want to take a shower?"

After a moment of stunned silence, Lou Ling said righteously, "Water is scarce now, we can't waste it!" She was very conscious.

"It's okay, your classmate is a water ability user!"

"…"

Did he think Lin Baobao was a walking water tank?

Lou Ling's original determination to save water resources disappeared after being scanned up and down by his dark eyes. She felt a chill down her spine and hurriedly obediently entered the bathroom, locking the door tightly.

After taking a shower in a daze, she was hugged and carried to the bed as soon as she came out of the bathroom.

Lou Ling's face was full of black lines. So this guy let her wash up fragrantly to eat her tofu? She pushed and shoved the man who was nibbling on her chest until he let go of her. Lou Ling pulled the blanket over herself and wrapped herself tightly, saying defensively, "My classmates and seniors are all downstairs, restrain yourself."

Lou Dian smiled contemptuously. "So what?"

What the hell, the apocalypse had arrived, had this person's morals and integrity also been shattered?

Lou Dian easily dragged her into his arms and kissed her all over. After a while, he took a shower, returned to the bed, hugged her, who was in a daze again, into his arms, rubbed his chin against her head, and said, "Whether you have abilities or not, I will protect you."

Lou Ling didn't doubt this point, but when she saw that the people she knew had abilities, and she became a weakling in the eyes of others, she would always feel unhappy. Although she felt that she could also kill zombies and her speed was not bad, not much worse than those with abilities, in the eyes of those who had magical powers, she was a weakling.

Lou Ling sighed, patted his hand that had reached into her pajamas, and asked, "What are your plans? Are you really going to the capital?"

Lou Dian propped himself up on his side, resting his chin on his hand, and stared at her face. It wasn't until she felt extremely uncomfortable that he picked up a strand of her black hair and said, "This place is still safe, there's no need to rush to leave. Everything has just begun…"

The apocalypse not only had threats from zombies, but also mutated animals and plants, and various natural disasters. It was as if humans, who were originally at the top of the food chain, were going to be trampled underfoot. Animals and plants would mutate, the weather would start to become abnormal, extreme cold and heat would alternate, the sea level would rise, coastal cities would be submerged, the sea would become a dangerous and cruel world, and the living space of humans would be greatly reduced…

His expression was indifferent, and his eyes were filled with an inorganic coldness that made Lou Ling a little scared. She didn't know when Lou Dian had become like this. His silence was more frightening than his anger. She had known him for nearly ten years, but she realized that she didn't understand him at all now.

Just when she was a little at a loss, he suddenly came back to his senses, pressed her under him, buried his face in the crook of her neck, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Xiaoling…"

He called her name softly, making her tailbone go soft.
