I forced myself to remain calm and coughed awkwardly. "Ahem, just get to the point. What kind of cooperation are you proposing?"

"On the afternoon of the 26th, Lynn Shelby intercepted various emergency directives being sent from Kensington to all parts of the country."

Kevin Keane’s deep-set eyes were locked on me, unwilling to miss the slightest change in my expression.

"We have no intention of asking why you began procuring all sorts of supplies before the government took action, only to hoar

  • Reborn Before Apocalypse: Surviving with Superpowers   CHAPTER 65: LITTLE SWEET POTATO

    A week later, the vegetation in the villa district was mostly cleared, leaving only the houses standing alone in the white snow.First thing in the morning, everyone received their backpacks from me. They were filled with three days of rations, two 500-milliliter bottles of spirit spring water, and ten Crystal Cores. Everyone shouldered a pack, just in case.Our whole family was heading out today, planning to make the most of our time collecting Crystal Cores.I took Little Sweet Potato out of my space and held it to my chest. "Let me introduce you all. This is Little Sweet Potato, a mutated and evolved sweet potato."I had wanted to introduce it to everyone for a while, but Little Sweet Potato had been dormant for a long time and only woke up in the last two days.Everyone gathered around, curiously sizing up the large sweet potato."So this is that blood-sucking sweet potato you guys were talking about?!" Aaron Palmer yelled dramatically, finding it hard to accept that a plant could

  • Reborn Before Apocalypse: Surviving with Superpowers   CHAPTER 64: DUAL ELEMENT

    Harold Howard shot to his feet, his body swaying slightly in shock. He subconsciously took half a step forward before stopping abruptly, his tone laced with urgency and inquiry. "Miss, are you sure you’re not mistaken?"I looked at their astonished expressions, feeling completely unfazed.I’ve been given a second chance at life, I thought. The most important thing is to live comfortably with my family. If I keep hiding it, it’ll be inconvenient to take things out of my space. It’s better to just come clean and say it’s a superpower.In my past life, there was a dual-ability Superpower User from the military at the Southern Base, so it’s not like being a dual-type is impossible. Life is hard in the apocalypse now. The only way for my family to handle all sorts of trouble is to become stronger. As for hiding some of my strength, that’s just an extra layer of insurance for myself and my family.My mind made up, I twitched my fingertips. A wisp of cool water vapor slowly condensed in my p

  • Reborn Before Apocalypse: Surviving with Superpowers   CHAPTER 63: REGISTRATION

    It’s actually a good thing they haven't figured it out yet, I thought. Now I can use this chaos to report my Space Ability.Caelan Palmer, on the other hand, had other worries. "We’re all living together. Won’t the military confiscate the empty villa next door? Should we split up for a while to occupy both houses?"I glanced at Kevin Keane and the other three. "I doubt they’ll confiscate the house. They’ll probably just make us pay a management fee for both villas. You bought them outright, right?"The men nodded.Aaron Palmer whined, "Of course we bought them outright! We spent years working under the table abroad, you know!"Hearing this, Kairo Quinn grew a little anxious. "You mean if we hadn’t paid in full, the state would take it back? Even if we did, couldn’t they just find an excuse to confiscate it anyway?"Everyone else was curious, too.I rested my chin on my hand and analyzed the situation. "They probably won’t confiscate them. But with the Military Command taking over and

    Just as Kevin was still savoring the sweet strawberry, Kairo Quinn burst in from outside the villa’s main gate, carrying Rex."The army’s here! The army’s here!"He had been out walking the dogs with Shane Shaw when he suddenly saw a massive procession of armored vehicles drive in. The two dogs were startled and immediately ran back to their respective homes.The words had barely left his mouth when the dull roar of engines grew closer.RUMBLE RUMBLE.It was loud enough to make the ground tremble, shattering the tranquility of the villa district."Holy crap! The army’s really here!"My eyes lit up instantly. I grabbed a down jacket, wrapped it around myself, slipped on my slippers, and ran out into the yard.Kevin Keane shook his head with a resigned sigh and reached out to straighten the crooked hood of my jacket.The vegetation near our house had been cleared away beforehand, so the vehicles had no trouble driving up to the front gate.We all looked toward the convoy. A dozen or so

    I mechanically chewed the wood ear mushroom, my voice numb but tinged with a grim resolve. "Sis, can we go back and beg Mr. Howard? With him, at least we’ll have enough to eat and a warm place to stay."Veyra Watt’s head shot up, her face a mask of shock and disgust. "No! He’s so old, and his belly is nothing but fat. Just looking at him makes me sick!""But I can’t live like this anymore!" My voice suddenly rose, despair choking my throat. "I don’t have a superpower, and you have one but you’re too scared to kill zombies! We just hide in this room all day, burning through our supplies! If this keeps up, we’re going to starve to death!"The more I spoke, the more agitated I became, and tears started to stream down my face.Back in school, I had been the campus belle of my department, adored by everyone. My parents doted on me, my sister protected me, and I was the center of attention wherever I went.But now, the mere sight of a rat the size of a small dog was enough to scare me out o

  • Reborn Before Apocalypse: Surviving with Superpowers   CHAPTER 60: SPRING FESTIVAL II

    I glanced around but didn’t see anyone else. "Where’s Mirelle King?" I asked casually.Kevin Keane raised an eyebrow and drawled, "I don’t know. He’s wherever Nido is."I didn’t think much of it and asked again, "What about Brother Evan, then?""Shane Shaw brought over a cured pig’s trotter, so he and Uncle Verne went to give him a case of luosifen in return.""Well..."Just as I was about to ask about Blake Blue, Kevin Keane cut me off. "Why do you keep asking me about other people? What is it you want?"I paused, then put my hands on my hips. "My mom wants you all to go to the backyard and slaughter the chickens and ducks for the New Year’s Eve dinner."Kevin Keane met my expectant gaze, shook his head slightly, and said with a look of distress, "I could never kill a chicken."His tone was insincere beyond belief.I was instantly speechless. You kill people without batting an eye, I fumed internally, and you’re telling me you’re scared to kill a damn chicken?!On the outside, howeve
