I'm just a lowly security guard, helping wealthy ladies survive the apocalypse.

"Consuming 1000 Prosperity Points!"

Zhang Lang silently recited it in his mind.

next moment,

As his thought settled,

The prosperity points on the panel plummeted instantly, dropping from 1036 points to 36 points.

Then, a surge of violent and pure energy rushed directly into his body.

Then, it erupted from the depths of his body like a volcanic eruption.

This energy seemed to spread from a single point to a broader area, instantly engulfing his entire body.

"The breakthrough has begun."

Zhang Lang murmured to himself.

He didn't know what realm came after the E-level awakening.

but,

In Zhang Lang's opinion

After his breakthrough, his strength will definitely be much greater than it is now.

At least?

After the breakthrough,

When facing a Tier 1 mutated zombie again in the future,

It wouldn't take him dozens of breaths to kill him, would it?

Perhaps, it can be killed instantly?

Composing himself, Zhang Lang quietly experienced the impact of the power within his body.

This energy was far more violent and domineering than when he broke through from the E-level beginner level.

Powerful energy flowed rapidly through his meridians.

Wherever it passed, his meridians were forcibly widened and tempered, sending waves of tingling and sore sensations through him.

But this did not cause him any pain.

obviously.

With the added advantage of his talent, his breakthrough process was greatly optimized.

It is perhaps much gentler than other transmigrators who break through by consuming energy crystals.

Zhang Lang felt the first changes in his muscles and bones.

He discovered that his already strong muscles were now all slightly bulging as if inflated, and then quickly contracting.

His muscle definition became increasingly smooth and powerful.

Every muscle fiber is constantly reorganized and strengthened under the nourishment of this powerful energy.

The originally pale pink muscle texture gradually developed a faint metallic sheen.

It is as if it has been forged from fine steel, tight and hard.

Zhang Lang could clearly feel the power contained within his muscles surging wildly.

If the power of an E-level awakened individual was originally just a trickle.

So, at this moment, this trickle has already converged into a rushing river.

Every gesture he made exuded a terrifying explosive force.

Besides the changes in his muscles, Zhang Lang was shocked to discover that the changes in his bones were even more astonishing.

As the muscles transform.

Every bone in his body underwent a radical transformation under the onslaught of this violent energy.

His bone density continued to increase.

The original bone tissue became increasingly hard, with a subtle metallic texture.

It's as if every bone has been forged from fine steel!

In addition, he discovered that his senses were also undergoing a dramatic change.

His already exceptional eyesight and hearing became even more acute at this moment.

He could clearly hear the even breathing of the three women in the bedroom, and even the soft sound of their hair falling onto the pillow.

He could see clearly even the finest speck of dust in the corner of the wall.

His gaze pierced through the crack in the door, and he could even vaguely make out the figures of Jiang Chuyuan and Li Wanqing in the hall.

Zhang Lang discovered that his sense of smell had also become incredibly sensitive.

The bedroom was filled with a seductive scent, the faint fragrance of a young girl, and the mature allure of Wang Xue.

There was even a faint stench of rotting zombies emanating from outside the villa.

At this moment, he found that he could clearly distinguish between them without them interfering with each other.

"Awesome!"

"That felt so good!"

With a slight clench of his fist, Zhang Lang felt an explosive power surging through his body, making him feel incredibly invigorated.

He felt that he was full of inexhaustible energy and had more energy than ever before.

even?

He also noticed subtle changes in his skin.

His originally healthy wheat-colored skin became incredibly firm and smooth after the breakthrough, with a faint sheen.

"I was already good-looking, and this surgery turned me into a male god?"

Standing in front of the dressing mirror by Mei Wangxue's bedside, Zhang Lang looked at himself in the mirror, slightly lost in thought.

All these changes, though seemingly lengthy, actually happened in the blink of an eye.

But this sudden change made Zhang Lang feel as if he were in a dream.

After the last bit of energy is completely absorbed by the body.

Zhang Lang slowly clenched his fist again, and a violent force instantly gathered in his fist.

"Now, I could easily crush my past self with a single punch."

Zhang Lang muttered to himself.

With a thought, his attribute panel appeared, and the information on it had undergone a complete transformation.

Name: Zhang Lang

[Identity: Leader of the CN-HC-1024 Survival Group]

Age: 22

[Physical constitution: Ordinary human (genetic lock fully unlocked)]

[Prosperity Point: 36]

[Strength: D-Rank Awakener (0/2000)]

[Punching power: 1.2t in normal state); 2.4t (in bloodlust state)]

Speed: 25m/s (normal state); 30m/s (bloodlust state)

[Official Wife: 1 (Su Qing - Heavenly Fragrance and Serene Spring Body)]

[Concubines: 3 (Liu Ruyan, Tang Yunjin, Tang Yunyao, Wang Xue, Tang Tiantian, Wang An'an; Current available concubine slots: 0/3)]

"A Rank D Awakener?"

"Is this my current level?"

"I'm much stronger than the previous E-rank awakeners, but I still haven't awakened any special abilities?"

Zhang Lang felt the violent power within his body. He was excited, but also somewhat disappointed.

His inability to awaken powerful superpowers filled him with a constant sense of crisis.

after all,

In the post-apocalyptic novels I've read before, characters possessed powerful superpowers...

Only then can one truly possess the strength and confidence to establish oneself in the post-apocalyptic wasteland.

However, although he did not awaken any special abilities, Zhang Lang still enjoyed the powerful changes that came with becoming a D-level Awakener.

He moved at will, and his arm underwent a rapid and dramatic change, revealing a faint silver-gray metallic sheen.

This is not just about the skin becoming metallic.

Zhang Lang could clearly feel that the bones and muscles in his arm were beginning to metallize.

What does this mean?

This means his defensive capabilities will be greatly increased in the future.

Zhang Lang's mind stirred again.

His fingernails also shone with a faint silver-gray metallic sheen.

In an instant, an ordinary fingernail becomes a real killing weapon.

Zhang Lang felt that this sharpness was even sharper than the claws of that mutated zombie.

"I can now unleash 1.2t of punching force with every move I make, which is the limit for an E-level awakened individual."

"The stat panel shows that my punching power in Bloodlust mode reaches 2.4t. Is this the limit for a D-rank Awakened?"

"Will my punching power gradually increase if I consume some Prosperity Points or devour some zombie energy cores?"

"Will the metallization of musculoskeletal structures gradually spread from specific points to the entire body?"

"Until my last thought, can I transform into a humanoid killing machine?"

Looking at his attribute panel, Zhang Lang frowned and pondered silently.

If you have an idea, give it a try.

He was about to take out the two energy crystal cores and try to absorb them.

result,

But she found that her clothes were still on the outside when she took a shower.

He didn't carry those two energy cores with him.

"I hope no one goes through my pockets."

Zhang Lang said in a deep voice, then silently recited in his mind: "Consumes 36 Prosperity Points."

The remaining 36 Prosperity Points on the panel vanished instantly.

then,

Zhang Lang clearly felt that his strength had increased.

However, the increase was not significant.

"really."

"My guess was right."

Zhang Lang's lips curled up slightly, forming a faint smile.

In his excitement, his gaze slowly moved down and landed on the three women on the three-meter-wide bed beside him.

Wang Xue was curled up asleep, her dark cheongsam slightly disheveled.

Her neckline was slightly open, revealing her delicate collarbone.

The blush on her face had not yet faded, her long eyelashes trembled slightly, and her breathing was even and long.

Clearly, he was completely exhausted.

She lay on Tang Tiantian's right side, who was also fast asleep.

The skirt of her flight attendant uniform was lifted up to her upper thighs, revealing a section of her fair and slender legs.

Although she was sleeping soundly, a satisfied smile played on her lips.

Wang An'an slept to Wang Xue's left. She was still wearing her nurse's uniform, but the white stockings on her long legs were torn to shreds.

Her eyes were closed, and she looked languid and delicate.

"Their bodies are still a bit too delicate. We need to find a way to make them E-level awakeners as soon as possible."

Zhang Lang muttered to himself.

Every single day, they would fall into a deep sleep.

While this gave him a great sense of accomplishment, to be honest, the experience wasn't very good.

The main problem is that if their bodies don't undergo a rapid transformation...

They will be completely unable to keep up with his pace.

Zhang Lang's gaze fell on Wang Xue, and a data panel instantly appeared on Wang Xue's body.

[Name] Wang Xue

[Identity] Concubine

[Age] 26

[Physical Condition] Ordinary human (genetic lock not yet unlocked)

[Strength] Initial Awakening Stage (0/500)

[Talent] S-rank (Extraordinary) Water-type talent (unawakened)

Mei Wangxue's data panel is similar to Su Qing's.

Zhang Lang shifted his gaze from Wang Xue to Tang Tiantian beside her.

[Name] Tang Tiantian

[Identity] Concubine

[Age] 20

[Physical Condition] Ordinary human (genetic lock not yet unlocked)

[Strength] Initial Awakening Stage (0/500)

[Talent] S-Rank (Extraordinary) Ice-type Talent (Unawakened)

Finally, Zhang Lang looked at Wang An'an's data again.

Her potential talent level is still S-level (extraordinary), but it is a fire-type talent.

"Ice and Fire, once Tang Tiantian and Wang An'an awaken their hidden talents, we should communicate with them more often."

A faint sense of wicked amusement suddenly arose in Zhang Lang's heart.

However, looking at the data of the three of them, a slight doubt appeared on his face.

His family's prosperity and talent are clearly stated in the description:

For each wife or concubine he marries, he will receive 50-500 prosperity points, depending on the other person's qualifications.

Each time he establishes a deep connection with his wives and concubines, he will gain 1-10 prosperity points depending on their aptitude.

The higher the qualification, the higher the income.

But now?

Whether it's the legal wife Su Qing, or the concubines Liu Ruyan, Wang Xue, Tang Tiantian, and Wang An'an, they all possess S-level extraordinary talents.

However, the twin sisters Tang Yunjin and Tang Yunyao possess an even higher-level SS-grade epic talent.

It should be noted that SS-level talent is only one level lower than his own SSS-level talent.

It is definitely a top-tier qualification, one in a million.

Strangely, this applies to both the individuals with S-level talents and the Tang family twins with SS-level talents.

For every person he recruits, he receives 100 prosperity points, no more, no less.

Each time you connect with them, you get 10 prosperity points.

All of them received the maximum return, with no difference whatsoever.

This is somewhat unusual.

According to the talent description, the benefits of different talents and prosperous points should be vastly different.

But why are their earnings exactly the same?

Zhang Lang thought about it seriously, but he couldn't come up with any clues.

However, despite his doubts, Zhang Lang's mood was not greatly affected; on the contrary, he remained very happy.

Putting everything else aside, at least the women he took in all possessed top-tier talent.

Such a talented lineup is probably extremely rare even in the entire post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Once he has built up this extraordinary female army, he can truly become the local tyrant of this post-apocalyptic wasteland.

He sits high on the throne, with his female warriors taking care of everything.

As for the fact that he himself has no hidden talents, Zhang Lang is not worried.

After all, once his wives and concubines awaken their talents, he can simply copy them.

"Ah, I'm such a good man."

Feeling that the air conditioner in the bedroom was a bit cold, Zhang Lang pulled the blanket over the three women.

Then, Zhang Lang got dressed, pushed open the bedroom door, and went out.

As soon as he stepped outside, he saw Jiang Chuyuan and Li Wanqing, two beauties, quietly touching each other on the sofa.

"Are you two itchy?"

Zhang Lang asked the question knowingly, with a smile.

He was met with two eye rolls.

then,

These were the surprised expressions on the faces of the two beauties.

The two of them looked up almost simultaneously, their gazes falling directly on Zhang Lang.

They were stunned at first glance.

The Zhang Lang before me seemed like a completely different person compared to before.

His figure remained tall and upright, but his overall demeanor had undergone a dramatic change.

Previously, although he was powerful, he still retained a sense of restraint.

At this moment, he exuded a domineering and powerful aura, like a sleeping lion awakening, every move he made was full of confidence to crush everything.

His gaze grew increasingly sharp, like that of a hawk, as if he could see right through people's hearts.

His muscle definition is more pronounced, and even in a loose security guard uniform, you can clearly feel the violent power he exudes.

Most importantly, this security guard seems to have become more handsome after this day?

That's unbelievable.

Jiang Chuyuan was the first to react.

She stood up and tentatively asked, "Zhang Lang, you...you seem a little different than before."

"You've gotten more handsome?"

Zhang Lang looked at her.

"Yes, you look very handsome now."

Jiang Chuyuan raised her eyes and spoke the truth.

"Besides getting more handsome?"

Zhang Lang asked her with a smile.

"You, you seem to have become even stronger."

Jiang Chuyuan hesitated for a moment, then said softly.

"Yes, Principal Jiang, you have a good eye. My strength has improved again."

Zhang Lang smiled calmly.

"What?!"

"Another breakthrough?!"

Jiang Chuyuan's eyes widened instantly, her face filled with disbelief, and her voice trembled slightly.

She remembered that Zhang Lang had just broken through to the E-level Awakener last night.

In just half a day, he broke through again?

This breakthrough speed is just too unbelievable!

Is this the terror of the only legendary SSS talent in the entire post-apocalyptic wasteland?

Li Wanqing, standing to the side, was filled with shock. Her red lips trembled slightly as she tried to say something, but she didn't know what to say.

Previously, Zhang Lang was only an E-level awakened individual, yet he was already able to wreak havoc in the zombie horde.

Now that he has broken through to the next level, how strong must this man be?

Jiang Chuyuan also thought of this.

The two beauties' hearts pounded, and a longing in their eyes spread like a tide in their hearts.

The two women looked at Zhang Lang's powerful aura, his strong physique, and his now handsome face.

The thoughts in my heart grew stronger.

They must become Zhang Lang's women!

Only by becoming his woman can she receive the strongest protection in this post-apocalyptic wasteland.

Only then can one truly appreciate his power, feel his robustness, and experience his strength up close.

These two beauties had even begun to plan things out in their minds.

How can I win over Zhang Lang and get him to accept me, just like he accepted his good friends Wang Xue and the others?

Using oneself as bait?

Luring an attack by zombies?

Is there another chance?

I really want it.

They really wanted it.

Seeing the two of them looking shocked, Zhang Lang was about to ask Jiang Chuyuan to make him a cup of tea.

At that moment, that cold and indifferent mysterious voice suddenly boomed in his mind:

[Announcement to all!]

[Attention all time travelers!]

[Zhang Lang, leader of the CN-HC-1024 survival group, has completed a further transformation, completely unlocking his genetic potential and successfully breaking through to become a D-level Awakened!]

He beat everyone else to the punch, breaking the record for the fastest breakthrough in this post-apocalyptic wasteland!

[Special Reward: ...]
