Many children, many blessings: Helping classmates' mothers survive the apocalypse

Those were two completely mutated zombies.

One of them was wearing a security guard uniform, half of his face was torn and bloody, and his eyeball was hanging out of its socket.

The other was a middle-aged woman in her pajamas, her intestines dragging on the ground, leaving a dark red bloodstain.

Su Qing covered her mouth tightly, tears streaming down her face.

She recognized the security guard; he always greeted people with a smile.

Now, however, he has become a man-eating monster, blocking her daughter's door.

She turned to look at Lin Feng, her eyes full of pleading.

Lin Feng flexed his wrists, and the feeling of fullness from tripling his physical strength made him fearless.

He walked past Su Qing and headed straight for the stairwell.

Sensing the presence of living beings, the two zombies turned their heads simultaneously, letting out hoarse roars, and lunged forward with bared teeth and claws.

The security guard zombie was at the forefront.

Lin Feng did not back down. He exerted force with both legs and leaped out like a cheetah.

The explosive power granted by triple physical strength made him incredibly fast. Su Qing only felt a blur before her eyes, and Lin Feng was already close to the zombie.

He gripped the baseball bat tightly with both hands, twisted his waist, strained his arm muscles, and swung it hard at the head of the security guard zombie.

"Bang!"

The dull thud echoed in the hallway.

The alloy baseball bat struck the zombie precisely in the temple.

The zombie's skull caved in instantly, and filthy blood mixed with brain matter splattered onto the wall.

The security guard zombie didn't even have time to let out a second roar before its massive body slammed straight to the ground.

Another female zombie in pajamas was approaching, its sharp nails almost scratching Lin Feng's face.

Lin Feng shifted his body to the side in an uncanny way, dodging the attack while simultaneously launching a flying kick that struck the female zombie squarely in the chest.

The explosive power of three times the physical strength is terrifying.

The female zombie was kicked backward, crashing heavily into the security door at the end of the corridor with a loud bang.

The crisp sound of a rib cracking echoed sharply in the quiet corridor.

Lin Feng strode forward, giving it no chance to struggle, raised his baseball bat high, and slammed it down vertically.

The sound of bones cracking rang out.

The two corpses fell completely silent.

The whole process took less than ten seconds.

Su Qing, standing at the corner of the stairs, covered her mouth with both hands the whole time, her eyes wide open.

In her memory, Lin Feng had always been a good-for-nothing rich kid whose body had long been ruined by wine and women, and who didn't even blink when killing zombies.

At this moment, her understanding was completely overturned.

The swift and decisive killing methods, and the terrifying power they unleashed, were simply beyond the capabilities of an ordinary student.

In the days since the apocalypse began, she has seen too many men so terrified of zombies that they wet themselves and didn't even have the strength to run away.

Lin Feng, however, dealt with the two monsters as easily as killing chickens.

Looking at the tall figure standing there, carrying a blood-stained baseball bat, Su Qing's heart skipped a beat, and her tense shoulders relaxed.

An unprecedented sense of security spread through my heart.

[Ding! Target Su Qing's level of approval has changed due to a strong shock.]

[Current approval rating: 15% (slight flicker of emotion).]

[System notification: She has begun to take your protective power seriously. In the apocalypse, strong protective abilities are the core of building family bonds.]

Lin Feng shook the blood off his baseball bat and turned to look at Su Qing.

"What are you waiting for? Open the door."

Su Qing snapped out of her daze and frantically pulled out her keys from her pocket, her hands trembling so much that she couldn't insert them into the lock.

Unable to stand it any longer, Lin Feng went over, snatched the key, and turned the door to the storage room.

Inside the storage room, the smell of mildew and dust swirled in the air.

Su Xiaoxiao curled up on the tattered mattress, her school uniform skirt wrinkled and revealing a section of her thin calves covered with an abnormal blush.

She was delirious with fever, her lips were chapped and peeling, and she was making faint moans.

"Little one!"

Su Qing rushed over, her movements so hurried that she almost tripped over the hem of her cheongsam.

Her hands trembled as she tore open the package of the fever reducer, but because her fingers were too cold, the white pill slipped to the ground several times.

Lin Feng walked over and placed one hand on Su Qing's shoulder.

The warmth of her palm seeped through the thin fabric of the cheongsam, causing Su Qing, who was on the verge of collapse, to stiffen.

"I'll do it."

Lin Feng took the pills and used his other hand to support Su Xiaoxiao's neck.

He pried open the girl's jaw, inserted the pill, and then took the bottled water that Su Qing handed him and poured it down the girl's throat.

Su Qing knelt to the side, her eyes fixed on her daughter, until she saw Su Xiaoxiao instinctively swallow, at which point she collapsed to the ground as if all her strength had left her.

"Let's go, it's not safe here." Lin Feng casually tossed the empty water bottle aside, bent down, and picked up Su Xiaoxiao in his arms.

Su Qing was stunned for a moment, then quickly got up and followed closely behind Lin Feng with her head down, like a frightened and charming young wife.

The return journey was eerily quiet.

The stench of blood in the stairwell was still pungent. Two zombie corpses lay across the middle of the road, their brains and filthy blood smearing twisted patterns on the marble floor.

As Su Qing passed by the corpse, she instinctively grabbed Lin Feng's sleeve.

She stared at Lin Feng's steady figure, carrying his daughter, and suddenly became mesmerized. That sense of security, almost a luxury in the apocalypse, eroded her once unbreakable pride like poison.

Yes, in this apocalyptic environment where danger lurks everywhere, how reliable it would be to have a strong man by your side at all times.

Back on the sixteenth floor.

With a click, the heavy steel security door locked itself, and Su Qing leaned against the wall in the entryway, letting out a long sigh of relief.

The constant temperature system inside the room completely blocked out the cold, and the warm breeze brushed against her soaked cheongsam, bringing waves of shivering.

Lin Feng settled Su Xiaoxiao on the bed in the second bedroom and covered her with a blanket.

As he left the second bedroom, he closed the door behind him.

In the living room, Su Qing stood awkwardly at the edge of the carpet.

Her moon-white cheongsam was completely ruined; one of the buttons at the collar had popped open, revealing a large expanse of dazzling white skin, as white as snow.

Because she had been exposed to the cold wind for too long, her snow-white skin had taken on a faint pink tinge, rising and falling with her rapid breathing.

Lin Feng glanced at her and frowned.

"Aunt Su, if you keep wearing this outfit, you'll get sick from the cold even without being bitten by zombies."

"The bathroom is at the end of the corridor, and the hot water is still on. Go take a shower first."

He turned around and pulled a gray cotton T-shirt and a pair of athletic shorts from the bedroom closet, placing them on the coffee table.

"I don't have any women's clothing, so you'll have to make do with this."

Su Qing opened her mouth as if to say something, but in the end she just nodded.

As she bent down to pick up the clothes, the tattered cheongsam made a slight tearing sound. She subconsciously pressed her hand against the collar, turned to the side to avoid Lin Feng's gaze, and quickly walked into the bathroom.
