Mo Mo's Ability

I'm not that useless fool I used to be. I have an ability now too.

Ugh, too bad I can't use it yet!

Those words instantly drew everyone's attention inside the car.

Yang Xuan was the worst at hiding things. He instinctively wanted to look back, curious what ability this little good-for-nothing had awakened, but Leng Shiyi behind him slapped him back into place and shot him a warning look.

Shen Yue and Su Ze exchanged a covert glance, once again confirming the suspicion in their hearts.

The others did not think much of it. They merely assumed that when Shen Mo said he was no longer the useless fool he used to be, he meant himself before awakening his ability.

However, hearing that her younger brother had awakened an ability finally eased Shen Yue's anxious heart somewhat.

She really should not let her imagination run wild right now. She had to become strong. She had to protect her younger brother.

Su Ze glanced at the youth still acting spoiled toward Shen Yue and wondered what kind of ability would be useless at the moment. If it was not an offensive ability, then it was probably a support-type ability.

There were quite a few types of abilities awakened during the apocalypse. Known support abilities included charm, invisibility, healing, clairvoyance, spatial abilities, and more. He just did not know which one Mo Mo had awakened.

The vehicle slowly moved forward. A scarlet sun hung in the sky, baking the earth, while the occasional stiff zombie roared and wandered aimlessly.

The buildings of civilization had become battered and ruined, gradually covered by decay. The greenery in the wilderness had also begun growing wildly, and dark shadows occasionally darted through the woods.

One month after the apocalypse, all kinds of extreme weather would accelerate the weathering of buildings. Plants and animals would begin mutating as well, further compressing humanity's living space.

So this operation had to succeed. Only by obtaining enough supplies could they continue onward. They also had to move quickly, or they would encounter other natural disasters along the way.

Shen Mo knew some of the plot, but he could not reveal it outright. He could only subtly guide them away from certain dangers from the story.

After all, the protagonist's group had successfully reached the base in the plot, though they had suffered plenty of setbacks along the way.

Watching this world decline filled Shen Mo with complicated feelings. When such a major upheaval occurred in a world, it generally meant one of two things: either the Heavenly Dao was evolving and the world was advancing, or the Heavenly Dao was about to dissipate and the world was collapsing.

However, based on the plot he knew and his recent observations, he felt that neither was the case.

Logically speaking, the protagonist should have been the Heavenly Dao's chosen one, the being with the strongest fortune. Yet within this protagonist's group, Shen Mo did not sense much fortune at all. Instead, he felt an indescribable sense of wrongness.

But when he seriously tried to think about that feeling, he could not put it into words.

Cultivators cared most about their sixth sense. It was the most basic foresight for danger. Shen Mo had no way not to care about it, though he could only remain wary for now.

He would keep a low profile in this world, but that did not mean he would wrong himself. After all, he had been a prominent figure in the Cultivation Realm as well.

Not to mention that thing called the system inside him. It should know quite a lot. Once it woke up, he would have to pry some useful information out of it.

And those so-called tasks it mentioned!

Speak of the devil. He did not know what his earlier thoughts had triggered, but the system, which had remained silent all this time, actually showed a bit of response.
