Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse

Chapter 129: Chapter 129 Wood Element Ability

The family had finished most of the farm work in the space and was ready to rest.

Resting in the space at this time was simply perfect, as they knew that resting for eight hours inside would only amount to about forty-five to fifty minutes outside.

Moreover, in the space, they each had their own rooms and places to shower.

Li Xiuying, worried about tiring everyone out, had urged them to rest early. Only a small pile of corn remained unhusked, which she and her husband could take care of leisurely in the space later on.

They were indeed exhausted and returned to their respective rooms, breathing in the air filled with spiritual power in the space, and quickly fell asleep.

…

Inside the annex, Guo Yang and the others had cleaned every room and made the beds, which left them quite weary as well. The soundproofing in each room of the villa was so good that not even the zombies howling in the deep of night could disturb their sweet dreams.

In his dream, Guo Yang saw himself as a rich man in the apocalypse, with countless crystal cores pouring into his space and Little Cutie, with her long hair, tenderly sitting by his side…

Smiling in his sleep, he woke up to find daylight outside.

Ah, what a beautiful dream. If only it could come true.

Guo Yang walked downstairs and found no one left inside the annex.

Where is everyone?

At that moment, he heard exclamations and praises from the house next door, so he hurried over to see what had happened.

It turned out that Yin Chengtian had discovered upon waking in the morning that he had awakened his wood element ability. This discovery thrilled him to no end, and he tugged Shi Jin as he ran towards the main hall of the main house.

Fortunately, the family had had enough rest the previous night and had left the space, and it was just a little past three in the morning when they exited. Lu Hao, unable to sleep, had exhausted Su Jin in the house until the sky began to brighten, and only then did Su Jin fall into a deep sleep once again.

This night was indeed very long… Su Jin thought silently before falling asleep.

“Congratulations, Xiao Tian, you finally got your wish,”

Liao Yifan knew how much Yin Chengtian wanted to awaken a special ability and couldn’t believe he had done so on their very first night at the villa, and it was even a wood element ability, at that. They all knew how powerful Su Jin’s wood element ability was.

What surprised them even more was that Mao Zhihang had also awakened a metal element ability!

“Heh, it must have been because we rested well last night, coupled with the training these past few days, so I awakened,”

To avoid raising suspicions, Mao Zhihang had come up with a reason early on. He didn’t expect that Yin Chengtian would awaken his ability on the same night, so this explanation was readily believed by everyone else.

Shi Jin was also happy for Yin Chengtian. His own desire for a special ability wasn’t as strong as Yin Chengtian’s, and the team leader had already said that they wouldn’t treat anyone differently based on whether or not they had an ability in the team.

“Eh? Isn’t sister-in-law awake yet?” Shi Jin asked.

“Hmm, she was too tired yesterday. Let her sleep a bit more,” Lu Hao said without a change in expression.

“Then let’s wash up first,”

Huang Yunxiang and Lin Tianzhen called everyone to fetch water and clean up. After all, if Su Jin didn’t come, they couldn’t start breakfast either.

“Sleeping in this villa really is different, I feel so energetic after a night on the bed,” Guo Yang said while brushing his teeth.

By this time, Su Jin had already come downstairs. Seeing the house full of people, she felt a bit embarrassed; everyone had woken up so early.

Yin Chengtian watched his team captain walk over to Su Jin with a smile, tenderly handing her a full cup of water, then squeezing toothpaste onto her toothbrush for her…

So the captain had such a gentle side too, Yin Chengtian thought.

Su Jin glared at Lu Hao irritably. It was his fault, making her lose face in front of everyone.

However, when she heard that Yin Chengtian had also awakened his Wood Element Ability, she was very happy. She had heard from Lu Hao before about how much Yin Chengtian had longed for a special ability, and she hadn’t expected that he would finally get his wish.

Yin Chengtian looked eagerly at Su Jin. He had awakened the same Special Ability as the great Su Jin, but when he tried it out earlier, his ability did nothing at all. It was only the leaf that had appeared on his hand that morning that let him know what his ability was. He also tried to produce vines using his Special Ability, but there was no response whatsoever.

“Um, sister-in-law, it seems my Wood Element Ability can only produce a single leaf…” Yin Chengtian said, his face turning red. He had finally awakened an ability, but he didn’t know how to use it.

“I’ll teach you later. Let’s have breakfast first!” Su Jin said with a smile. She already had a plan in mind. The Wood Element was an ability that required diligent practice. She had benefited from being reborn with her Level Three Wood Element Ability already intact. Otherwise, it might have been very difficult for her to even reach Level Two at this point.

Other abilities could be practiced in combat, while the Wood Element was initially completely useless in battle, which meant being at a disadvantage from the start. If one went down the wrong path, it would likely continue that way, making it difficult to participate in combat later on.

And with Yin Chengtian just having awakened his ability, she could teach him some methods, but as for the results, it all depended on his own diligence.

Yin Chengtian was incredibly grateful. The deity was right before his eyes, even agreeing to teach him. He was simply too fortunate. No matter how difficult it was, he was determined to persevere!

Su Jin took out a variety of breakfast items from her Space. Guo Yang noticed that today’s breakfast was a little different from usual: a basket of boiled eggs, a large basket of cooked corn, glistening egg pancakes, egg custard, milk, and there was even watermelon?!

But aren’t there a bit too many egg dishes?Nôv(el)B\\jnn

“Ahem, I had too many eggs stockpiled in the space before,” Su Jin explained.

“Wow, little brother, this corn tastes so good!” Guo Yang exclaimed after taking a bite. He had forgotten all about the eggs, anyway, each person had a boiled egg for breakfast before, as Su Jin said, to boost their immunity and prevent sickness.

Meanwhile, Liao Yifan was so engrossed in eating his corn that he couldn’t lift his head. When Su Jin had brought it out, he smelled the sweet aroma of the corn and couldn’t help but grab one to taste, and the flavor was simply astonishing!

The corn was sweet and sticky, just like the farm-grown corn he ate as a child, no, it was even sweeter than the corn he remembered.

Even the Local Tyrant Gold was munching on a large piece of corn seated on a stool nearby.

The family also thought the corn they had collected the night before was delicious, and the basket of corn on the table was quickly finished.

Mmm, this corn is really good, Su Jin thought as she ate. Next time, she would ask her grandfather to cook more, so they could have it if they couldn’t eat conveniently while outside.

“Xiao Hao, are we going to clean up the zombies after breakfast?” Su Xiangzhe asked while eating. He remembered Lu Hao mentioning starting the zombie cleanup today.
