Listening to the task announced by the system, David's eyes lit up! A hundred-fold critical boost? Though it wasn't as enticing as a ten-thousand-fold boost, it was still enough!

The term "first major zombie outbreak" got David lost in thought. In his previous life, he had only managed to survive for five years before dying. The zombie outbreak five years later was simply unbeatable. In this life, however, he wanted to see what the scene of the major zombie outbreak would be like. Lost in his thoughts, David turned to Sally, who had already finished absorbing a purple crystal. She took deep breaths, feeling the changes in her body, and her eyes sparkled.

"David, I think..." Sally's voice reached David's ears, and he turned to look at her.

"Finished absorbing? Any changes?" David asked, his face filled with anticipation as he looked at Sally.

Sally's face turned slightly red, and she nodded as she got up from the bed. She slowly raised her hand, and a sizzling sound emanated from it. Sally's gaze suddenly became sharp, and in the next moment, lightning surrounded the television in the living room!

"Boom." Sally whispered a word.

The television in the living room was instantly blasted by lightning, turning into a pile of dust on the floor. David was shocked to witness this! Telekinesis! This meant that Sally's mental abilities were becoming stronger. Being able to attack through objects could be the best solution if someone were taken hostage.

David thought to himself, already looking forward to seeing the results if Sally absorbed more lightning crystals.

Immediately, David took out thirty lightning crystals from the space and placed them on the bed.

"These are for you. Take your time to absorb them," he said as he stood up, patting Sally's shoulder, who was still in astonishment. He whispered, "Don't absorb them all at once. It would be too much of a burden for you. Take it slowly, no need to force yourself."

Hearing David's words, Sally nodded with lowered eyes, feeling happy inside. She watched as David walked out and then turned her attention to the crystals on the bed. She needed to absorb them quickly so that she could go out with David!

Sally absorbed two crystals in one breath. She immediately sat cross-legged on the bed, experiencing waves of pain and burning sensations coursing through her body. Afraid of making a sound, she half-opened one eye and grabbed the nearby towel, covering her mouth.

The pain on her body was unbearable, and Sally couldn't help but occasionally let out cries.

Outside the room, David walked out and closed the door behind him. Little Black approached, rubbing against David's leg. Looking at its appearance, David smiled helplessly. "Alright, I'll feed you now."

With that, David took out thirty crystals and placed them in Little Black's bowl. It was then that he noticed the cola was gone! He hadn't even realized when it had disappeared, as all his attention was on the night vision goggles provided by the system. David anxiously waited for a few seconds, and suddenly, a meow came from the window.

Upon hearing the sound, Little Black quickly swallowed the crystal it was eating and then protected its bowl. Seeing Little Black's actions, David could guess that it must be Cola outside the window. He approached, wearing the night vision goggles, and carefully lifted a corner of the curtain. Once he confirmed it was Cola, David opened the window.

As soon as the window opened, Cola jumped in lightly. Once inside the room, Cola walked proudly towards Little Black. David hurriedly closed the window curtains and looked at Cola. It was already lying next to Little Black, disdainfully looking at it. Cola's fur had regained some of its brightness.

Where had Cola been during this time? David wondered as he walked over. He crouched down, reaching out to touch Cola's head. Cola followed the position of his hand and rubbed against it. Little Black looked on unhappily, deliberately crunching on the crystals in its bowl.

Cola paid no attention to the noise and continued to enjoy rubbing against David's hand. After a while, David didn't find any wounds on Cola's body. Well, how could a shadow cat possibly get injured when it went out?

David took out thirty elementary crystals. As he watched Cola contentedly eating them, David stood up. There was only one month left, and it would be great if he could find various types of ability crystals during this time.

However, these crystals were all on mutated zombies, making it quite difficult to deal with them. According to what he knew, the first group of awakened ability users would have the Five Elements, Strength, Speed, Space, Shadow, Healing, Lightning, and the rarely awakened Time.

The timeline had changed after his rebirth. Arnold survived in this life, and David gained abilities early. The butterfly's wings were starting to make subtle adjustments. The second group of ability users would awaken after a few months. There were many different types of abilities among the second group, too many to count. However, relatively speaking, the abilities awakened in both batches couldn't be compared.

In the previous life, David encountered mutated zombies for the first time after the first group of ability users awakened. But this time, it was happening too quickly.

While David was pondering, knocking sounds came from outside the door. David looked through the peephole. It was Brian, holding Lily in his arms. Brian knocked a few times, and when no one opened the door, he lowered his voice and said, "It's me, Brian." With those words, the door in front of him finally opened.

At the moment Brian's eyes met David's, a hint of blame flashed across his face but quickly disappeared. After closing the door, Brian placed Lily on the sofa.

David looked over at Lily on the sofa. Her lips were pale, and she was trembling, with a pale complexion and sweat all over her body. Her brows were furrowed, and she looked as if she was on the brink of death. "Are the crystals you gave her really effective?"

Brian clenched his fist, gritting his teeth and speaking in a low voice. Seeing Brian's restrained appearance, David couldn't help but chuckle. Was he afraid of him? David sat down on a nearby chair, crossed his legs casually, and said, "I just picked them randomly. The crystals are indeed real, but whether Lily can survive or not depends on her own fate. Not everyone can bear the power of ability enhancement after absorbing the crystals."

"You!" Brian moved, his fist about to swing towards David.

The next second, lightning was all around Brian, burning him to ashes if he even moved! Sally fingers around the lightning, slowly out of the room, said faintly. "You can't touch him."
