Doomsday Countdown: I Became Invincible After Kicking Out the Loser
墨書 Inktalez
I jolted awake from the dream, drenched in cold sweat. The excruciating pain of my body being torn apart lingered, the agony of flesh and bone separation so vivid that I instinctively touched my chest and arms.
Unscathed.
I glanced around; this was the small apartment I shared with Zhang Hao. The sunlight streamed in through the window, and a faint aroma of coffee wafted through the air—everything felt both familiar and strange.
Looking at the calendar on the bedside table, I realized that in three days, the apocalypse would arrive.
A faint murmur of conversation drifted from next door. I held my breath; ever since gaining my powers, my senses had sharpened significantly, allowing me to easily distinguish between Zhang Hao's and Lin Mengyi's voices.
"Does she really have spatial abilities?" Lin Mengyi asked in a hushed tone.
"I saw it with my own eyes in my past life; why would I lie to you?" Zhang Hao replied impatiently. "If that ability exists during the apocalypse, it will be key to survival."
My heart tightened sharply—Zhang Hao had also been reborn?
"What should we do then?" Lin Mengyi's voice suddenly turned sultry.
"Simple," Zhang Hao sneered. "First, coax her into handing over her powers, then find an opportunity to push her to the zombies. After all, when the apocalypse hits, who will care if a few people die?"
I bit down hard on my lip, the taste of iron spreading in my mouth. In my previous life, I fought tooth and nail to protect them, carving a bloody path for their safety while they embraced each other intimately in my safe haven. I risked my life to gather supplies only to return and find that they had devoured all the food I had stored.
"My dear," Lin Mengyi cooed sweetly, "everything she has will be ours now, and I am yours too."
The laughter from next door gradually morphed into an intimate exchange, revealing that they had gotten together so early on. A wave of intense hatred threatened to consume me.
No, now was not the time to explode.
Since heaven has given me a second chance, I will make sure that you all suffer even more than in the last life.
I forced myself to calm down and began to plan in my mind. Three days from now, the zombie virus will break out, starting from the city center. Before that, I need to make all the necessary preparations. Zhang Hao, Lin Mengyi, you wanted spatial abilities, didn't you? Very well, I will grant your wish. With your blood and lives, you will pay the price for betraying me.
The sound of Zhang Hao pushing the door open interrupted my thoughts. I quickly closed my eyes, pretending to have just awakened from a nightmare.
“Qing Qing, are you okay?”
He hurried to my bedside and feigned concern as he asked, “You suddenly have a fever. How do you feel now?”
I looked at his outstretched hand and remembered that in my past life, it was this very hand that pushed me into the horde of corpses. A wave of nausea surged up my throat, but I forced myself to put on a weak smile.
“I dreamed of many terrifying monsters.”
I rubbed my eyes, deliberately making my voice sound a bit dazed and panicked. “Their teeth are so sharp... they want to eat me...”
A strange light flashed in Zhang Hao's eyes as he gently stroked my hair. “Don't be afraid; I'm here.”
He paused for a moment before tentatively asking, “By the way, have you felt any special changes in your body?”
I feigned surprise and looked at him. “How did you know? I thought I was just imagining things.”
“So there really is something?”
Zhang Hao's eyes sparkled with excitement. “What kind of change is it?”
“It seems like my jade pendant...”
I pulled out a jade pendant from my chest and skillfully dodged his touch. A glimmer of greed flashed in Zhang Hao's eyes as he reached for the pendant. I quickly clasped it in my palm. “I'm not sure...”
Zhang Hao frowned slightly but quickly returned to a gentle expression. "From now on, we’ll have to rely on Qing Qing to protect us."
Just then, Lin Mengyi pushed the door open. She was wearing a pink spaghetti strap nightgown, her face still bearing a hint of springtime warmth.
"Qing Qing, are you alright? We were all so worried," she said, affectionately linking her arm with mine.
I noticed that as she spoke, she exchanged a meaningful glance with Zhang Hao.
Oh, best friends? In my past life, you watched as I was devoured by zombies, laughing heartily from a distance.
"I'm feeling a bit unwell," I replied, pulling my arm away and rubbing my temples. "I just want to sleep a little longer."
"Then we won't disturb you," Lin Mengyi said thoughtfully, tucking the blanket around me before she and Zhang Hao left the room.
As soon as the door closed, I jumped out of bed and quietly pressed my ear against the door. Hearing their footsteps fade away, I finally let out a sigh of relief.
I quickly drew the curtains and took off my nightgown, glancing at the faint silver rune on the inside of my left arm.
This was the true core of my spatial ability. In my previous life, I had been cautious and claimed that my spatial power came from an ancestral jade pendant around my neck, which sparked Zhang Hao and Lin Mengyi's murderous intent for treasure.
This time, I wouldn’t make the same mistake again.
