He Traded the System for My Rebirth, and I Led Him Across the Apocalypse

35: Returning to ChinaShe touched the wall, her mind free of distractions, concentrating all her mental power.

”Enter!”

”My God. What’s going on?”

The Americans in the laboratory suddenly noticed that the pitch-black darkness outside the window had instantly turned into a brightly lit room.

And looking through the window, this was clearly a completely unfamiliar place!

Lin Wan saw the panicked people when she opened her eyes, and her heart filled with joy.

”It worked!”

Ji Chuan laughed out loud in excitement.

Taking advantage of their confusion, the group unleashed their ultimate moves together to send them to the afterlife.

Having a space wasn’t unusual, but those people could never have imagined this.

Her space wasn’t just for storage; it was infinitely large and could take in anything!

Without wasting words, Shen Mo Chi and the others swiftly dealt with the group, leaving only the three leaders of the laboratory alive.

Afterward, they prepared to return home with the entire American laboratory.

Not long after Lin Wan and her group left, the large backup force arrived.

This was the American Ability User army; it was lucky they left early!

Those people looked at the spot where the laboratory building used to stand, now completely empty.

When they saw only a deep, massive crater left behind, they were all shocked into silence.

”Oh God! What happened here!”

”Where is our laboratory? Where are our people?”

No one could answer his question because not a single soul was left alive, and the classified data that had been hidden for years didn’t even leave behind a scrap of paper.

Just like that, it had vanished into thin air!

The entire United States fell into chaos.

They immediately went to check the zombie base, only to find that, as expected, the undersea base was gone too!

”Blockade all transport lines! Check everyone who has arrived from the sea recently!”

By the time Lin Wan and the others landed in Sea City...

Japan’s missiles flew toward the defenseless Americans, and they even lured the remaining tall zombie swarms that hadn’t been blown up over there.

America didn’t even have a chance to speak; they could only counterattack first.

In an instant, both countries suffered heavy losses with countless casualties.

Japan in particular saw almost everything rebuilt over the nearly two years of the Apocalypse destroyed, and many hard-earned Ability Users were killed.

Coupled with the American counterattack, the entirety of Japan was filled with wails of grief and was almost leveled to the ground!

America lost its entire laboratory, which had been their headquarters for so many years!

And because of Japan’s suicidal fighting style, the situation was also unbearable to watch.

With the involvement of thermal weapons, Ability Users, and zombies, scenes of flying flesh and blood were everywhere.

Blood stained patch after patch of land; recovering their strength would likely be harder than ascending to heaven within the next ten years.

On the way back, everyone was exhausted; their minds had been tense for the past few days as they traveled non-stop between the two countries.

Everyone was more or less injured.

The three men took turns flying the helicopter while everyone else took turns resting.

Lin Wan took out spiritual spring water from her space for them to drink.

”Hungry and tired, let’s eat first. It’s time to name your dishes!”

”I want shredded pork with garlic sauce over rice!”

Ji Chuan was the first to speak.

”I want Malatang.”

”I want fried chicken.”

Yue Yue and Yi Nian, the two big gluttons, said with smiles.

”Alright.”

”Shi Li? What are you eating?”

Lin Wan asked.

Shi Li paused for a moment, then said,

”Then I’ll have rice with toppings too. Thank you.”

Lin Wan saw him stuff the mutated beast meat he had pulled out back into his pocket and gave him a look.

”Thank you for what? Shi Li, we are a team now, don’t overthink it. Look at Ji Chuan and the others, have they ever been polite with me? I don’t like my friends being overly formal with me!”

”Besides, the supplies in my space won’t run out even if we eat for eight hundred years. I’m happy to give them to my friends; seeing them eat makes me happy.”

”These past few days, you’ve said thank you every time you eat my food. Then every time you help me during a battle, should I say thank you too?”

Yi Nian took a bite of the steaming fried chicken, its fragrance making her eyes squint in delight.

”Brother Shi Li, don’t be so formal with Sister Wan. If you feel bad, just give her some good things she doesn’t have when we get back! Or help her when she needs it in the future?”

Shi Li originally felt that Mo Chi and Ji Chuan were already a team with deep ties, practically like family.

But as for himself, he hadn’t had much interaction with the others besides Ji Chuan and Mo Chi, so he felt it was inappropriate to eat Lin Wan’s food for free, even if she had plenty.

But seeing them say this, he no longer dwelled on it.

”Okay, I understand.”

Lin Wan also knew he didn’t want to use her supplies casually; after all, supplies in the Apocalypse, especially food, were precious.

In fact, even those as close as Yue Yue and Ji Chuan would always try to send more supplies over after eating things from her space at first.

It was only after she got angry that they stopped.

Yi Nian was even more so.

She was a sensitive and meticulous girl.

Aside from that first meal after coming back, she never asked for food again, no matter how much she craved it.

Uncle Wang had even given her more than double the supplies because of that welcome feast.

Only after she sternly refused and had a serious talk with them did they slowly stop keeping such a strict tally.

To Lin Wan, they were more than just friends; they were family.

The original families of these few people weren’t very happy, and fate had brought them together to heal each other. To have a group of like-minded people to advance and retreat with in the Apocalypse was a rare thing.

So, she really liked this feeling of closeness, being intimate when they should be, just like a real family.

”What about Mo Chi?”

”I’ll have the rice with toppings too.”

”Okay, then I’m going to have seafood rice noodles.”

Lin Wan took out food from the space and gave each of the three men a large braised pig trotter.

For the girls, she gave each a large cup of warm milk tea.

Instantly, the aroma of food filled the entire cabin.

The three people tied up in the corner were practically dying of envy!

Good God, what was that?

It’s been almost two years since the Apocalypse began.

There was still steaming Malatang? Fresh, non-mutated fried chicken? Fragrant rice with toppings?

Heavens, it was too unbelievable.

”Fortunately, we didn’t go in vain this time. This trip for our vanguard team was worth it!”

Yue Yue took a big gulp of milk tea, took the shredded pork rice, and went to feed Ji Chuan, who was flying the helicopter.

”Yeah, they finally got what was coming to them this time.”

Everyone chatted while eating.

The three curly-haired old men were almost driven mad by the smell.

After eating and drinking their fill, Lin Wan took out a fragrant steak and walked over to those people.

”Do you have anything to say?”

Those people couldn’t help but swallow their saliva; how long had it been since they had eaten such things?

Although they were high-ranking officials and didn’t lack supplies or food and drink...

They probably hadn’t eaten such fresh steak in a long time either.

The few who had storage space abilities could only store things and couldn’t even keep them fresh; the steaks they had hoarded before were already mostly gone.

However, because they had undergone professional training, they would rather die than speak; this was a fear and realization etched into their bones.

Lin Wan didn’t care and poured the steak out for Dou Dou right in front of them.

Their eyes widened as they stared at Dou Dou feasting with regret and envy, wishing they could turn into that majestic big dog!

They traveled without stopping, dealing with some aerial mutated creatures along the way. Upon returning, they didn’t stop to rest and went straight to the leader’s office.

After listening to the recording and looking at the American laboratory outside, Director Zhang was deeply shocked.

He had originally sent them out just thinking they would investigate personally.

To figure out what kind of conspiracy Japan had and the real situation over there.

Although he had thought there might be a pleasant surprise, he didn’t expect the surprise to be this big!
