CHAPTER 106: CHAPTER 106: I’M NOT THE HOLY MOTHER IN THE APOCALYPSE 12

Lin Shuangshuang was a bit puzzled. The apocalypse had just begun, and many people still didn’t know about eating mutated things to enhance their physical abilities. Everyone’s physical ability was still stuck at weak chicken levels. Who would be foolish enough to run into a place swarming with mutated bugs?

Isn’t this seeking death? Thinking of this, Lin Shuangshuang couldn’t help but walk a few steps quicker, wanting to see who was so gutsy!

However, Lin Shuangshuang wasn’t foolish enough to reveal herself directly. Instead, she secretly hid behind a tree-like mutated rose and peeked outside.

At the entrance to the weapons shop, six people were being besieged by a swarm of locusts. Among the locust swarm, there were two ants joining the chaos.

Of these six people, five were wearing sports attire, tall and strong men. Judging from their movements when fighting the bugs, they must have practiced Sanda or Taekwondo or some similar martial arts.

The five men formed a circle, evidently led by a beautiful, energetic woman in sports attire with neatly tied short hair, who showed no less ferocity than the men when killing bugs! As soon as Lin Shuangshuang saw this woman, a surge of murderous intent filled her heart!

The calmness and rationality she had maintained all along started to crumble! Lin Shuangshuang gnashed her teeth. As they say, enemies meet on a narrow road. She didn’t expect that leaving school early in this life would lead her to encounter this group of people so soon!

This beautiful, energetic woman was Li Man, the person who had caused Lin Shuangshuang’s disastrous past life! The men around Li Man were all familiar faces to Lin Shuangshuang! The two men in front holding police batons to fight bugs were brothers—one named Yang Ziqi and the younger brother Yang Duo, the most handsome men in the group, and eternally infatuated with Li Man, were Li Man’s absolute confidants.

Perhaps because both brothers liked Li Man, they understood her mindset and knew that Li Man actually hated Lin Shuangshuang. So they were the only two in the team who always rejected Lin Shuangshuang upon sight in the previous life. They even attacked Lin Shuangshuang multiple times.

However, Lin Shuangshuang wasn’t someone to be bullied without retaliation. The things these two did were so vicious that in the past life, Lin Shuangshuang quietly took the opportunity to deal with them, clean and decisive, without leaving any evidence. After these two went missing, Li Man searched frantically but never found the brothers. Given the fragile and ephemeral nature of life in the apocalypse, she eventually gave up.

Behind Li Man, were two men wielding baseball bats, each with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and muscles. They appeared extremely powerful.

These two men were named Liu Ze and Fang Lei, martial arts instructors from the same dojo. Their martial skills were impressive, making them the strongest in terms of combat power in Li Man’s team. These two were fairly righteous and abhorred betrayal, absolutely loyal to Li Man!

But they lacked brains, solely believing Lin Shuangshuang to be a selfish traitor to her companions, which referred to those parasitic classmates clinging to Lin Shuangshuang. They utterly despised Lin Shuangshuang.

Liu Ze and Fang Lei never plotted against Lin Shuangshuang. Their attitude towards her was one of indifference, cold and dismissive.

In the past life, these two never spoke to Lin Shuangshuang. Whenever they saw Lin Shuangshuang, they treated her as air. Li Man often sent Liu Ze and Fang Lei to deliver messages to Lin Shuangshuang, which naturally never reached her ears.

This indifferent attitude was really hurtful, but compared to the backstabbing Yang Ziqi and Yang Duo, Lin Shuangshuang’s impression of these two wasn’t great, but she held no hatred. Although their brains were full of Zhi grass, they were better than those treacherous villains.

The last man was average-looking, not ugly but not handsome either, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, lacking the temperament of a scholar, yet his face was full of arrogance.

While fighting the bugs, his attack power didn’t seem weak, but he was careless, often needing help from others, with Li Man assisting him the most.

It was evident that Yang Ziqi, Yang Duo, and Fang Lei, Liu Ze didn’t favor him much, often pretending not to see him when he was about to get hurt. It was always Li Man who noticed in time and helped him out.

This man was called Zhao Yan, the person Lin Shuangshuang hated second only to Li Man! Because Zhao Yan had a direct connection to Lin Shuangshuang’s death in her past life.

This Zhao Yan wasn’t the best-looking, the strongest, nor the most loyal in Li Man’s team, though he also secretly had feelings for Li Man, yet he wasn’t as devoted as Yang Duo and Yang Ziqi, seemingly being the least useful.

But in fact, Zhao Yan provided the greatest help to Li Man! Because Zhao Yan had a powerful father, Zhao Zhenxiang, who ran a security company before the apocalypse with a large group of security guards under him, he directly took his guards and established a base after the apocalypse.

This base later became one of the largest private bases in the apocalypse, eventually merged under government jurisdiction, and Zhao Zhenxiang was promoted directly to the position of general, becoming a major power holder.

Zhao Yan was Zhao Zhenxiang’s only son, spoiled and unaware of the heights of the sky before the apocalypse, having run away alone on a trip after having a row with his dad, only to bump into the apocalypse. Suddenly losing contact with Zhao Zhenxiang, Zhao Zhenxiang nearly went mad but had no idea where to start searching.

Zhao Zhenxiang originally thought he’d never see his son again, but his precious son was escorted back unharmed by Li Man, which made Zhao Zhenxiang extremely grateful to her!

Zhao Zhenxiang’s gratitude combined with Zhao Yan’s secret infatuation gave Li Man a rise in status within the base, becoming second only to Zhao Zhenxiang, as Zhao Yan was obedient to her.

Once Zhao Yan found Zhao Zhenxiang and became the Crown Prince of the base, Lin Shuangshuang’s days turned bleak. Zhao Yan set many traps behind her back, nearly killing her several times. If it weren’t for Lin Shuangshuang’s martial skills, she would’ve died long ago.

Lin Shuangshuang also attempted several times to kill Zhao Yan, but he was always protected by experts dispatched by Zhao Zhenxiang. Open confrontations failed, and every secret attempt was thwarted by Zhao Yan’s protectors. In the end, Lin Shuangshuang died on a private mission taken by Zhao Yan, abandoned amid a pile of mutated ants, without leaving a complete corpse!

Seeing these people, Lin Shuangshuang’s first reaction was to rush out and kill them, but she quickly suppressed this impulse. One reason was that she might not be able to defeat them.

Although she brought back the Inner Strength from her past life, her current body hadn’t undergone any enhancement, remaining totally ordinary and incredibly weak, forcing her Inner Strength to shrink into her Dantian and play dead.

If her Inner Strength was likened to an ocean, her current body’s meridians would be a small stream, able to tap into only a trickle of Inner Strength. A bit more and her meridians would be violently destroyed by the Inner Strength, turning her into a cripple for life!

Without utilizing her Inner Strength, Lin Shuangshuang couldn’t fight against Li Man and her group. To use her Inner Strength to ruin her own future for a few scumbags was utterly foolish! But just letting these people go, Lin Shuangshuang felt unwilling.

While Lin Shuangshuang was troubled, she suddenly felt something sharp poke her from the side. When she turned her head, she was instantly scared into a cold sweat!
