There are three stages of zombie mutation.
The ones that appeared in the mall today were only T-Virus Mutants.
They become violent and full of destructive urges, attacking any living creature they see without hesitation.
The second stage is the T-Virus Carrier.
Not only do they possess the same destructive tendencies, but they also become infectious.
The final stage is the Zombie.
They embody destruction, infection, and hunger. When starving, they will devour the people they bite to death.
Xiao Yu took a deep drag from his cigarette.
Doubt filled his mind.
"T-Virus Carriers aren't supposed to appear until five days from now. Could my rebirth have triggered a butterfly effect?"
If that were the case, S City was in for even more chaos. Once the number of carriers reached a tipping point, even he wouldn't dare roam the streets freely.
Getting bitten meant infection.
No amount of supplies was worth risking his life for.
Still, he wasn't about to lock himself indoors. It just meant he needed to be more cautious.
At that moment, An Xiaoran handed Han Kexin a pack of tissues.
After taking a few sips of water, Han Kexin managed to calm down. While straightening her messy hair, she said,
"Thank you for saving me just now."
"If it weren't for you, I might have... Oh, right, my name is Han Kexin."
It was only then that Xiao Yu really took notice—Han Kexin had incredibly delicate features, with a natural, seductive charm in her eyes.
She had a tall, graceful figure.
She was, without a doubt, a top-tier goddess.
"What do you do for a living?" Xiao Yu asked tentatively.
"I'm an executive secretary."
A secretary?
And goddess-tier, no less.
Xiao Yu's eyes lit up. She was a perfect candidate for his team.
"So, your name's Han Kexin, right?"
"Whatever I do next, don't move. It'll be quick."
Without further explanation, Xiao Yu took her hands and activated his Captain's Team Recruitment ability.
[Ding! Team Matchmaking in Progress…]
[Name: Han Kexin]
[Occupation: Secretary]
[Overall Score: 96 – Eligible for Team Recruitment.]
[Ding! Han Kexin has successfully joined the 'Goddess Task Force.']
[Ding! Team Member +1. You have received: All-stats Boost x2.]
Success!
Today's luck was off the charts.
The requirements to join the Goddess Task Force were extremely strict.
An Overall Score of at least 95 meant she was an absolute beauty—and there weren't many of those walking around.
He couldn't believe he had already recruited two.
With Han Kexin joining, the Team Info updated immediately:
[Goddess Task Force]
Captain: Xiao Yu
Team Members: An Xiaoran, Han Kexin
Team Attributes②: All team members' attributes x2
Occupational Attributes:
Warehouse Clerk: All members receive a 20-cubic-meter Nano-Storage Pocket
Secretary: All members' Mental Strength x2
Occupational Skills:
An Xiaoran: Space Warehouse Lv.1
Han Kexin: Mental Enchantment Lv.1
The boost was tremendous.
First of all, Xiao Yu himself—
With the second All-stats Boost, his overall enhancement now reached x4.
Han Kexin's addition had also activated the Team Attributes②, meaning both she and An Xiaoran now received a twofold stat boost.
On top of that, as a secretary, Han Kexin's presence doubled the team's Mental Strength.
Mental Strength was especially critical in the early stages of the apocalypse.
The higher the stat, the less likely someone would break down at the sight of a horrifying zombie.
More importantly, sudden appearances by zombies often caused women to scream instinctively—which would attract even more zombies.
Han Kexin's Occupational Skill was Mental Enchantment.
"A secretary?"
"Charm?"
Damn, these skills really were aligned with their professions.
Xiao Yu quickly checked the skill's effect.
Mental Enchantment Lv.1: Cast the skill on a target to mentally control them and make them act according to your instructions.
Mental Enchantment.
Too powerful.
For Xiao Yu, it was a gift from heaven.
City-wide lockdown? No one allowed to leave?
He'd just use Mental Enchantment.
Who could stop him?
At the same time, Han Kexin's interface popped up, showing her new Team Info.
Just like An Xiaoran's.
At the very bottom was a warning:
[If you are removed from the team by the Captain, or if the Captain dies, you will lose all powers.]
Han Kexin was deeply shaken.
She stared at Xiao Yu, stunned. "Captain… what is all this?"
Xiao Yu sighed.
He'd have to explain everything to each new member—what a pain.
"Xiaoran, fill Kexin in, would you?"
"Tell her about the apocalypse too."
From now on, An Xiaoran would be his spokesperson. Anything manageable—she'd handle it.
Xiao Yu stepped aside for a moment to gather his thoughts.
He now possessed two skills: Space Warehouse and Mental Enchantment.
As a Reborn One, he knew exactly what lay ahead—both zombies and survivors would evolve.
However—
That evolution was purely physical. No one else would develop Special Abilities.
"This world… Only my team and I have Special Abilities."
"And I can share all of them."
Too good to be true.
By the time he finished his cigarette, An Xiaoran had finished explaining.
Han Kexin took a long time to digest everything.
Then she walked up to Xiao Yu.
Brushing a lock of hair behind her ear, she said:
"Captain, we're on the same side now."
"I hope you'll take care of me."
"And I promise to give my all in helping you with anything you need."
