Chapter 456: Chapter 394: The Origin of the Internal Space (2)
If Nina Rook’s soul were to fuse with her body, her full power would be restored.
And according to Lex Cross, Flora was no match for Nina Rook’s true power.
Even if Flora Bloom could win, Lex Cross wouldn’t let her take the risk.
The Rook family’s mark was engraved upon the soul. Even if you killed the person who harmed one of their descendants, they would hunt you down for generations.
Lex Cross would never let Flora Bloom take such a risk.
Nina Rook’s very existence truly disgusted Flora Bloom.
She couldn’t be subdued, and she couldn’t be killed.
All she could do was watch Nina day after day. Though Nina’s movements were restrained, Flora couldn’t hear anything she said.
Power.
After this series of events, Flora Bloom, like everyone else, felt the importance of power.
And so,
The inferno for the zombies of Orinburg began.
At first, the six hundred people were poorly coordinated, and someone would get injured now and then. But when Shauna Wallace unleashed a wave of her Healing System superpower, the wounds on the injured suddenly healed completely, much to everyone’s excitement.
By the time they cleared the area from Orinburg Airport to the food processing plants on the outskirts of Orinburg, the members of Flora Bloom’s own team were still Middle Level, while the other superpower users were now all uniformly Level 3.
Moreover, most of their superpowers were on the verge of a breakthrough.
They had started with six hundred people, and they still had six hundred people.
In three days, not only had the superpower users all reached Level 3, but even three of the original fifty ordinary people had awakened and become superpower users themselves.
The other forty-seven ordinary people were now fired up, eagerly participating in the fight against the zombies, hoping they too could awaken as superpower users as soon as possible.
What Flora Bloom had told them was true after all: in the apocalypse, life was evolving.
If they wanted to live better, neither ordinary people nor superpower users could afford to become complacent with their current, comfortable situation.
The thirty-li stretch of Orinburg’s outskirts, including the airport, had been completely cleared. Further in was the city’s first major, densely populated urban district.
Flora Bloom didn’t let the group rush ahead. Isla Preston had sent news that the city proper not only held countless zombie hordes but also a number of sentient zombies.
Leading the entire population of sentient zombies were three Middle-Level Grade 1 zombie dogs.
What’s more, there were over a thousand sentient zombie canines among the hordes. If they were to enter rashly, the six hundred of them wouldn’t even be enough for a snack.
Even with a bulldozer like the Juggernaut on their side, Orinburg was a huge city. Its population wasn’t just in the tens of thousands.
It looked as if conquering and clearing out the entirety of Orinburg would require not only more manpower but also more time.
If they rushed in and got surrounded, they would be lucky if even half of them escaped. The best method was to lure the zombie hordes out bit by bit and destroy them piecemeal.
Though it would take longer, it would guarantee their safety.
At the same time, they decided to capture the leader to catch the thieves. Lex Cross and a few others would coordinate with Isla Preston and head out first to eliminate the three Middle-Level Grade 1 zombie dogs in the city.
This would first disrupt the coordination among the zombie hordes.
Without their leaders, the sentient zombies would be like a tray of loose sand, much easier to pick off one by one.
Lex Cross’s group of eleven left the outskirts of Orinburg and headed for the urban district. Without the restraint of Lex Cross’s black energy, only The Crown Prince and the Tanuki were left to imprison Nina Rook, but she was now able to speak.
"Flora Bloom, tell me, aren’t you useless? My dear Lex and his team have gone on dangerous missions several times, yet you can’t be by his side to lend him a hand. You’re completely unworthy of him!"
"Nina Rook, you know, you’re rather pitiful."
Hearing Flora Bloom’s calm, completely unaffected voice, Nina Rook was at a loss for words.
"What do you mean?"
"Honestly, I don’t believe you came here just for Lex. It’s just that you happened to find him here as well, isn’t that right?"
Nina Rook laughed out loud. "Flora Bloom, you underestimate my love for my dear Lex. We grew up together—we’re childhood sweethearts. So what if he doesn’t love me now?
Do you think he really loves you? You still don’t know the origin of that space inside your body, do you?"
Hearing Nina Rook mention this, Flora Bloom immediately enveloped the two of them in a water mist.
"What do you mean?"
"Look at the expression in your eyes. I bet you aren’t sure if my dear Lex truly loves you, either.
That internal space of yours is a treasure. It’s something that the most powerful experts in the entire universe flock to obtain.
Any superpower user who cultivates to the Cosmic Level can create an internal space within their body. The grade of the space is related to the superpower the user cultivates."
