At dawn, many had not slept all night.
Nearly 100,000 people gathered on Jiangbei Bridge, densely packed, trying to enter the safe zone.
Though the government tried to keep the news secret, paper could not wrap fire.
Videos of zombies rampaging spread wildly online, and riots broke out everywhere. Not only lockdown zones but even people in safe zones were terrified.
At the military base, Chen Chong looked down at the time on his phone.
"July 16, 2023, 5:18 am."
He silently counted down —
15...14...13...
.....
3...2...1!
Suddenly, the entire sky turned blood red, chilling to the heart, as if blood had seeped into the heavens!
The sun, a symbol of hope, now felt completely different.
Not lively and rejuvenating, but blood-red and eerie!
Then, the earth began to tremble, rumbling loudly!
A gigantic black obelisk suddenly rose, piercing the clouds, appearing abruptly before all.
This black obelisk was located in the suburbs of Jiangjing City. Though far from downtown, it was so huge and magnificent that the mysterious patterns on it could be seen clearly from the city!
"What is that!?"
"A pyramid? Where did a pyramid come from under Jiangjing City?"
Even the military was shaken, their faces full of shock.
Because even though the zombie virus could be explained by biological science, the appearance of this black obelisk was supernatural!
Everyone stepped outside their rooms, shocked by the sight.
Chen Chong stood beside An Mian, while Qin Jun was surrounded by people in the distance, staring at the obelisk, lost in thought.
Amid the crowd's noise, Chen Chong's eyes darkened, and he became extremely calm... even ruthless!
Because he knew, doomsday had officially begun.
There were 24 black obelisks worldwide, and no one knew their secrets.
But with their appearance, the last hope given by gods to humanity began — talent evolution!
Suddenly, Chen Chong felt his body grow intensely hot.
His muscles became defined, filled with explosive power. After minutes, Chen Chong calmed down.
He was no longer the weak bookworm he had been.
Now, his muscles were well-defined and strong; he had become an athletic man!
His body was filled with immense power. Even the so-called elite soldiers in the army could be easily crushed by him.
His eyesight was also enhanced, able to see small objects hundreds of meters away with ease.
Ordinary people seemed weak and powerless before evolvers....
F-tier talent — strength enhancement!
Chen Chong exhaled slowly, a bit disappointed.
After all, F-tier was the lowest talent. He had hoped to awaken a stronger talent after rebirth.
But it seemed the world's course remained the same as before.
In the distance, Qin Jun also changed. Amid the crowd's astonishment, a golden light enveloped him, dazzlingly bright!
Chen Chong glanced and, although knowing Qin Jun would awaken talent, felt jealous.
Because Qin Jun's talent was S-tier — psychic control!
This was extremely powerful, able to lift entire buildings with a single finger at higher levels!
Life could be so unfair.
He was given noble birth, good looks, and an incredible starting talent in the apocalypse — an S-tier talent!
Apart from talent seeds, S-tier was the strongest talent humans could awaken.
Even rare SSS and SS talent seeds couldn't surpass Qin Jun's talent among the apocalypse world's top ten.
Chen Chong also knew the unfairness didn't stop there...
Qin Family members almost all awakened talents, an impossible feat when the talent awakening rate was less than one in ten thousand.
So in the apocalypse, the Qin Family was called the chosen family of the gods....
With all members as evolvers, plus the Qin Family's power and resources, the resulting chemical reaction was terrifying....
...........
Chen Chong noticed a faint blue glow from Su Ya, surprising him a little.
Had Su Ya awakened talent too?
Chen Chong remained expressionless and calm. Su Ya disappeared quickly in his previous life, but that was no longer his concern.
He and Su Ya had no ties anymore.
Looking around, Chen Chong found only the three of them had awakened talent, showing how rare talent awakening was....
He looked at Qin Jun again, a trace of superiority rising.
So what if you awakened an S-tier talent?
So what if your Qin Family is the chosen family?
He was about to seize the SSS-tier talent seed.
Then, he would be king of the world!
Chen Chong softly said to An Mian: "An Mian, we leave now."
He knew now was the best opportunity.
Qin Jun probably had already noticed him for some reason and might have ordered people to watch him.
If he had left last night, Qin Jun would have discovered him.
Now was the best time.
Because Qin Jun was still awakening his talent. The higher the level, the more time needed to adapt.
After awakening, Qin Jun would surely focus on studying his talent.
He wouldn't have the energy to pay attention to other things for a while....
