Reborn One Week Before the Apocalypse

Chapter 309: Chapter 299: Everything Returns to 0

A sharp pain shot through Tang Mo’s head, and her body instantly curled into a ball.

Fortunately, this wasn’t her first time fusing with a pearl. She had gained some experience from fusing with the Spirit Power Pearl, so she didn’t panic. Instead, she yielded to the explosive power erupting from within the new pearl, doing her best to guide the torrent of energy through every channel in her body.

The seven-colored stream of light outside, rich with Life Force, sensed the change in Tang Mo’s body. Countless rays of light began to surge into her, merging with the Life Force from the original Life Energy Pearl. They combined into a new power that coursed through her, nourishing every part of her body.

Tang Mo’s body had sustained significant damage from excessive exertion and continuous fighting, including both external wounds and internal injuries to her meridians.

But under the constant nourishment of this fused, seven-colored Life Force, her body gradually began to recover. She could feel herself being repaired and strengthened, reaching a state of absolute peak performance.

It was a physical condition she had never experienced before. The energy within her was abundant, and every muscle pulsed with immense power, ready to obey its master’s command.

The wounds on Tang Mo’s body mended bit by bit. Every bleeding point sealed, and her injured muscles and bones were soothed back to a perfect state.

Although Tang Mo was lying on the ground, filthy and disheveled, no one could know that her body was in a condition she had never before reached—a state of absolute peak readiness, prepared for even more brutal battles.

The seven-colored stream flowed for a full hour before gradually dissipating. Hu Bin had already helped both Tang Mo and Xiao Fei up, and they were now resting against Mumu, who had grown into a towering tree.

Tang Mo couldn’t move yet because the Life Force contained within the seven-colored stream was so potent that fusing with the Life Energy Pearl was taking much longer than her fusion with the Spirit Power Pearl.

However, she was now in the final stages of the fusion. In another twenty minutes, she would likely be restored to her perfect state.

Nearby, Xiao Fei kept his eyes shut tight. He couldn’t bear to look at the dissipating halo in the sky, knowing that a part of it had been bought with Bo Niou’s life.

As the world resumed its motion, vibrant life began to burst forth across the land. Patches of green and colorful flowers spread out, looking especially beautiful against the backdrop of the blue sky and white clouds.

Amidst the greenery, countless young animals chased one another. Bees, butterflies, and small birds flew freely in the sky, sharing the joy of freedom with humans. Everything was perfectly harmonious.

On every screen in this world, the live broadcast ended, replaced by a new set of rules.

Everyone clicked on the rules. The very first one stated that in this new world order, humans, plants, and animals were to live in harmony. The existence of other life forms was no longer forbidden.

People could even freely grow crops or flowers and raise any non-threatening pets.

These rules take effect the moment they are announced.

Rule Day was finally over, and the new rules had finally appeared.

”Well, well. Look at our hero, fallen and can’t get up. Weren’t you so impressive just a moment ago?”

Amidst the peaceful scene, a dissonant voice rang out.

Tang Mo lifted her eyes. It was Wenqing.

Qin Fen stood beside her, his hands in his pockets, looking at Tang Mo but saying nothing.

On the other side, Zhang Chao and his people also appeared in the clearing.

”So you’re Tang Mo, number one on the Huaxia rankings. You really live up to your reputation.”

They had also arrived after the broadcast began but had remained hidden, waiting for the battle to end before showing themselves.

They were waiting to see what they could gain from the fallout of the fight.

A treasure, perhaps, or a chance to get out.

They had all been here for a long time, but aside from a life free of pressure, they hadn’t found any real treasures.

This group was composed of people with considerable skill and strength from the apocalypse. In that dog-eat-dog world, they had carved out their own status. A peaceful world like this actually made them feel out of place and uncomfortable.

This time, seeing Tang Mo fight in the broadcast, they knew their chance had come.

To Tang Mo’s surprise, Zhang Chao’s words held a hint of sincerity, with no trace of mockery.

Who doesn’t admire the strong?

Zhang Chao had witnessed Tang Mo’s battle against the Mutant Beast Group at S Base.

Any real man who saw that battle where Tang Mo protected S Base couldn’t help but respect her.

Wenqing, on the other hand, was ecstatic to see Tang Mo lying there, covered in blood.

’So, Tang Mo, you always acted so high and mighty with your high attribute values, didn’t you? Let’s see you act so arrogant now that you’re just lying there!’

Wenqing didn’t actually know that Tang Mo was connected to the loss of her bracelet. Her deep-seated grudge against Tang Mo stemmed mainly from long-standing jealousy.

Wenqing had always felt like she was supposed to be the main character, but she was constantly outshone by Tang Mo in everything, which left her feeling deeply resentful.

Now, seeing Tang Mo sitting there, completely helpless, she couldn’t be more delighted.

Wenqing drew a dagger and started walking toward Tang Mo. Seeing that this woman meant trouble, Hu Bin immediately stepped in front of Tang Mo to block her.

”Put that away.”

Standing to the side, Qin Fen grabbed Wenqing’s arm.

”What’s wrong? Don’t you hate Qin Ling? She’s his woman. If we kill her, we can see him suffer. Wouldn’t that be great?”

Wenqing didn’t stop. As if possessed, she continued toward Tang Mo with the dagger.

She had always maintained the image of a sweet, innocent girl in front of Qin Fen. This was the first time she had lost her composure.

Her life had been going so poorly lately, and at this moment, she blamed all of her misfortunes on Tang Mo, seeking a moment of psychological relief.

’If I kill her, I can go back to the Wen Family, maybe even take her place and live the life of a young miss again.’

There was another thing Wenqing was very clear about. She wasn’t a stupid person; she just hadn’t been applying her mind in the right places.

She had realized during the battle that Tang Mo’s abilities were not those of a Space Ability User.

’She must be like I was before, a fake Space Ability User with some kind of Space Treasure.’

’If I kill her, I can get that abnormal treasure from her. Then I’ll have a Space again and become one of the elite!’

Greed and jealousy had become two venomous snakes, and they had long since taken over Wenqing’s mind, controlling her thoughts.
