MasukBut after the apocalypse, everything changed.Even among their own people, it had become a brutal struggle of kill or be killed. As for foreigners? They were naturally the first to be "taken care of."Not to mention the Jayzepanese, who had always prided themselves on being the strongest nation in the region and looked down on all other races as inferior. Their methods were ruthless without exception."After we banded together for survival, small groups of Jayzepanese no longer dared to provoke us. But as food supplies dwindled, we inevitably began clashing with Jayzepanese factions occupying other territories," Tristan said, shaking his head. "We've suffered heavy losses these past few days."Ray became interested. "Explain the ability-user factions here in detail."A woman walked over and smiled. "Honey, why don't we invite Gray inside to talk?"Tristan finally came to his senses and quickly said, "Gray, let's go inside. It's too cold out here."Ray nodded. The group then head
Facing the group of aggressive Jayzepanese ability users, Ray remained completely unconcerned.He didn't even look at them. Instead, his gaze stayed on Victoria as he said coldly, "Who allowed you to act on your own and come out here?"He had to translate it into Jayzepanese first—annoying.The moment Victoria heard it, she trembled all over and immediately dropped to her knees."Yes… it was my own decision. I was wrong. Please punish me, Master!"Seeing their national "goddess" kneeling before a Gohaven man instantly sent the Jayzepanese crowd into an uproar.Rage exploded.Damn it—this was an absolute disgrace to the Jayzepanese!That woman definitely wasn't pure-blood Jayzepanese. Otherwise, how could she be so spineless to kneel to a Gohaven man?Now that the apocalypse had erupted and global power structures were being reshuffled, they no longer even bothered respecting other strong countries, let alone bowing to a "Gohaven slave.""That filthy woman! She's shaming our r
Ray had already been given a perfect demonstration by Luca earlier.He snapped his fingers.Instantly, everyone's pants dropped at the exact same time.As it turned out, almost everyone still cared about their dignity.A wave of startled cries erupted as both sides hurriedly retreated toward their own formations, frantically grabbing their pants with both hands.In an instant, the battlefield became clearly divided. Simple. Clean.Ray couldn't help but burst into laughter as he thought, 'I really am a genius.'Everyone was busy holding up their pants—except for one man laughing out loud. And in the entire battlefield, only Ray and Victoria still had their pants on.Who else needed to be blamed for this?All eyes turned toward him, filled with deep wariness.There was no doubt about it—this had to be an ability.But what kind of absurd ability was this, to make people's pants fall off?"Who the fuck are you?" a Jayzepanese man shouted in anger.Ray didn't even look at him.
After slaughtering the Jayzepanese, making them cry and howl for mercy, Ray felt quite satisfied.He continued on his way with Victoria in tow, heading straight for Katla City.From Fruleila City to Katla City was just over two hundred kilometers. With Ray's speed—even while carrying Victoria—he could maintain nearly 300 kilometers per hour. In a little over an hour, the two of them arrived.Skyscrapers stood packed together.In the past, this place must have been bustling with traffic and crowds. But now? Every prosperous street was buried under thick white snow, and not a single pedestrian could be seen. Desolate beyond measure.Ray felt nothing in particular, but Victoria let out a faint sigh. This had once been the most prosperous city in Jayzepan—how could she not feel emotional seeing it like this?Even her submissive instincts couldn't erase her identity as a Jayzepanese woman. She still carried a sense of national belonging.Seeing her expression, Ray felt a trace of cur
A faint smile played at the corner of Ray's lips.Mm. At the very least, he needed to understand what Victoria was saying. Otherwise, it would be like a chicken talking to a duck—communication would be seriously hindered.Ray took out his phone, adjusted the settings on a translation app, and handed it to Victoria.Seeing that his phone still had power, Victoria was once again shocked.Good heavens… how many days had passed since the apocalypse? This man was truly unbelievable.Her awe deepened further, and the submissive instinct within her grew stronger. She spoke into the phone, "Please, my great master… punish me."The translation app immediately converted her words into Gohaven.Ray smiled faintly. Just as expected."Introduce yourself," he said.Victoria quickly complied, explaining her name, identity, and background.Ray raised his brows slightly in surprise."One of the 'Top Ten National Goddesses of Jayzepan'?""Yes," she replied respectfully. "They are rankings ch
Ray was now more than ten kilometers away from the core area of the nuclear power plant, so he could not confirm whether the reactor was still there.If he wanted to know, he would have to move closer.Since he was already here, there was no reason for him to stop halfway. He moved on.Seeing him continue forward, Victoria panicked.She hurriedly grabbed at him. "You can't go any further! There was a severe nuclear leak here before—we'll be exposed to nuclear contamination!"Ray couldn't understand a word of what she was saying. To him, her frantic speech only made her look slightly amusing.He simply kept walking, ignoring her completely."…Huh?"Victoria froze on the spot.'You're just going to leave me behind like this? Should I run now?' she wondered.From both a national and personal standpoint, she had every reason to hate Ray. He was a Gohaven citizen. An inferior, no—an utterly inferior race.Being possessed by someone of such a lowly lineage should have filled her w
The crisis alert went berserk!Lucas threw himself forward again, but although his body lunged away, the sense of imminent threat did not fade.The danger wasn't over. Not at all!Whoosh—at that moment, a steel rebar shot straight at him.With no choice, Lucas was forced to intercept it head-on.
Lucas darted again, narrowly evading the next attack.But he was wounded, and his injuries had slowed his reflexes."Ahhh—!" he screamed as his left foot scraped against a sonic-speed stone.A mere graze from one of those stones was horrifying enough. A chunk of flesh had been sheared away, revea
Seven died, six survived—but not a single one had become an ability user.Previously, the Hope Camp had left these test subjects to their own devices, with a survival rate of just ten percent. Now? Nearly fifty percent had made it through.Ray allowed himself a small, satisfied smile. His "surgery
The size of the spatial portal did not change at all, but its casting range increased to ten meters.Ray could only call it strange.The growth of this ability was the most baffling of all—impossible to predict. Just when he thought he had grasped its pattern, it would arbitrarily change again, le
