The End of the World: Start with a Book, All Superpowers Depend on Reading

In a large shopping mall in the southern part of Chuncheng, a group of survivors were gathering in a shop on the fifth floor.

In the next store, a bald man sat on the sofa with two men standing beside him.

"Brother Sun, several brothers have awakened their superpowers. Can we..."

A young man holding a machete pointed out the window and asked the Carrefour supermarket a few hundred meters away.

"There are so many zombies outside the mall. It's probably a bit difficult for us with just a dozen people. Do you expect those women who eat dry food?"

A bald middle-aged man with a face full of flesh and a thick gold necklace on his neck curled his lips and slapped the woman next to him.

"Work harder for me!"

The woman was slapped, but she didn't dare to show a trace of grievance.

"Haha, Meihong, you have to work harder. If you can't, let Xiaoyingtao do it."

Deng Liang smiled sinisterly, and the woman named Meihong trembled all over, so she had to force a flattering smile.

The bald man glanced coldly, as if considering Deng Liang's proposal.

"Those zombies are sensitive to sound! Brother Sun, let's make some noise and attract them away first." The young man laughed.

The bald man's eyes lit up, "There are at least thousands of zombies outside, what kind of noise can attract them away?"

"Brother Sun, there are still two guys who don't know how to live or die. Let them bleed and hang them on the wall behind the mall... Hehe!"

A cruel look flashed in the young man's eyes.

"That's a way... Not bad! Deng Liang, you have a flexible mind." The bald man pondered for a second, then smiled and looked at Deng Liang with a touch of approval.

"Isn't this your cultivation, Brother Sun!" Deng Liang bent over with a flattering face.

"Okay, let's do it this way. Tell the brothers to have a good meal at noon, and in the afternoon we... Let's take action."

The bald man finally groaned a few times, then kicked the woman next to him away, stood up and patted Deng Liang on the shoulder.

"However, just bleeding may not be effective enough. Remember to cut off the hands of those two guys and tie the rope tightly."

Deng Liang was trembling all over after being slapped by the bald man. He nodded repeatedly: "Brother Sun, you are still thoughtful. I will prepare it now."

"Go! This woman is for you!"

The bald man waved his hand and looked at the woman lying on the ground with disdain.

"Okay, okay, thank you Brother Sun!" Deng Liang's eyes lit up, bowed repeatedly, pulled up the coughing woman, and walked to the next door with shining eyes.

"Hou Jun, is there no news from the old man yet?" The bald man walked to the window and looked out the window with a gloomy face.

Hou Jun, who stood upright on the side, shook his head: "Master Jie, judging from the current situation, there are at least a few days left."

"But it's already the eighth day. It should be almost over even if it's slow, right?" The bald man Sun Jie said angrily.

"Six days ago, the old man arranged a plane to deliver a message. With me by his side, the old man is probably relieved." Hou Jun laughed and said proudly.

Sun Jie turned around and looked at the bodyguard who had been with him in the kiln for several years: "I'm not worried about this. You are so strong, my safety is not a problem. It's just that the old man has not contacted me, and I'm afraid things won't go smoothly."

"Don't worry, you know the old man's ability, it's just to deal with a few pedantic guys."

"But last night's energy burst, everyone benefited, I'm afraid... the old man's plan will be postponed."

Hou Jun stroked his chin and said uncertainly.

"Those old men still have a lot of strong men under their command. It's better for the old man to postpone his plan, so that he won't call me back directly. It won't be so fun when I get there!" Sun Jie smiled, his eyes flashing evilly.

"So what if he's strong? The power that the old man has awakened is incomprehensible." Hou Jun was full of admiration, and there was deep envy in his eyes.

Sun Jie laughed out loud when he heard this: "Haha! You're right. I didn't expect that the old man had such a terminal illness, but he turned the corner."

Hou Jun nodded, "This shows that the old man is not destined to die, and he must have great fortune!"

"He must have great fortune, and it should be our Sun family!" Sun Jie laughed, and a hint of ambition flashed in his eyes.

"Master Jie, do you want to go with me this afternoon?" Hou Jun asked. He was standing aside just now and heard Deng Liang's plan clearly.

Sun Jie thought for a moment and nodded, "Go, why not? Anyway, you are by my side, and besides... I also want to try, how powerful is my ability?"

A black light appeared in Sun Jie's palm, and then he slapped the wooden table beside him. Sun Jie raised his palm calmly, and a palm print appeared on the wooden table, with black smoke floating inside, and a big hole was corroded in a moment.

"Master Jie's ability is very strong, but it's a pity that it consumes too much energy to release it remotely..." Hou Jun exclaimed.

Sun Jie laughed and waved his hand: "What are you afraid of? Just get more crystal cores to upgrade."

Hou Jun nodded. He had awakened his superpowers four days ago.

After the spiritual energy burst last night, he felt that he became more powerful, and he also tried to kill some zombies.

At the reminder of a younger brother, several crystal cores were found from it. After many experiments, it can actually increase the energy in the body.

This discovery made Sun Jie and Hou Jun very happy, and their self-confidence was even more overflowing.

Sun Jie took Hou Jun to the next door. In the shop of about 200 square meters, there were actually more than 30 survivors gathered.

However, the dozen or so young women looked ashen and were dirty.

In the corner, two boys with wounds were tied up with ropes that were found from nowhere.

"Deng Liang, how are the arrangements going?" Sun Jie looked at the room with disgust.

Deng Liang quickly got up from the corner and ran over with his pants in a hurry.

"Brother Sun, everything is arranged. We will set off after dinner."

"You kid, I will not tire you to death, take it easy!"

Sun Jie raised his foot and kicked Deng Liang's leg. Deng Liang pretended to stagger and smiled.

"Okay, take out the things and let the brothers eat a little. We will set off in a while."

"Yes, yes, Brother Sun, I will do it right away."

Deng Liang nodded and bowed, turned around and called two people to follow him to get things next door.

After lunch, everyone threw a few pieces of bread to the women, leaving four or five younger brothers with machetes as guards.

Ignoring the hoarse cries of the two girls inside, they dragged the two immobile boys out.

Everyone walked to the outermost window of the mall, and Deng Liang grabbed a boy's arm and chopped it down without saying a word.

Blood splashed immediately, but magically floated in the air. The next moment, it gathered directly in Deng Liang's hand and quickly condensed into a bloody spike.

Seeing this, the gangsters around him couldn't help but show envy on their faces.

The boy let out a miserable howl and struggled in pain.

Deng Liang laughed sinisterly, grabbed his other arm again, and chopped it down fiercely with the machete in his hand.

The boy was already so hungry that he had no strength. His arms were broken one after another, and he was in so much pain that even his voice became hoarse.

"Brothers, tie him up tighter, don't let this kid fall!"

Deng Liang picked up the two broken arms on the ground and threw them out of the window. The blood from the broken arms condensed into blood-colored spikes under his control.

The younger brothers around him agreed one after another, and hurriedly used a rope made of curtains to find a sturdy pillar to wrap around it several times and tie it into a knot. Then they tied up the boy who was still screaming and threw him out of the window.

The screams and the dripping blood immediately attracted most of the zombies in the small square downstairs.

The other boy was so scared by all these cruel means that he was trembling with fear, and his crotch was wet.

"Master Jie! Master Jie!"

"Please! Let me go! You can let me do anything!"

"Please let me go! 55555..."

The boy was so scared that he kept twisting his body, crying and kowtowing for mercy.

At this moment, he completely abandoned the hatred of this group of people who kept taking turns to attack his girlfriend in front of him. Facing death, he only knew to beg for mercy.

"Deng Liang, it seems that it is not enough, let another one go."

Sun Jie ignored him, wiped his bald head, and frowned at the zombies below.

"Okay, Brother Sun, do it right away, it will definitely attract all the zombies!"

Deng Liang smiled, grabbed the boy who kept begging for mercy on the ground, and stabbed him twice, and the number of spikes in his hand increased by four.

A group of younger brothers were well prepared. After some operations, they threw the boy who kept crying down.

The screams of the two boys with broken arms finally led all the zombies in the square to this corner.

"Brother Sun, it's okay. As long as we go out from the right, we won't face so many zombies directly."

Deng Liang ran to Sun Jie and flattered him.

"Not bad, not bad, you are still smart, let's go!"

Sun Jie nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand, and walked to the other side with a group of thugs.

Only two boys with broken arms were left outside the window, still howling heartbreakingly.
