Back to the Apocalypse

Chapter 48

That evening, just as darkness fell, the sounds of blood-curdling screams followed by the sound of gunshots and of people running around could be heard everywhere in the community. This chaos went on until around midnight before the situation slightly improved.

Hearing the sounds outside, Bai Jing lost his mood for sleeping. Instead, he simply went into his dimension and started wandering around, looking at the fertile medicine field, the fruits on the trees that were ready for harvest and the luxurious and comfortable villa. After seeing this, his mood instantly improved. He then went into the villa and took a comfortable bath before exiting his dimension and returning to his room.

Once inside his room, he neatly packed everything into his dimension, before giving the room a once over to see if he had missed anything. Since it was almost morning, he decided to go to the living room for a while and wait for everyone to wake up. He intended to leave this place as soon as daybreak came.

Bai Jing found himself sneering the moment he reached the living room; he hadn't expected to find anyone else awake at this time.

He saw Li Yi carrying his son in his arms, spinning him around as Li Meng giggled non-stop. There were also a few other people around them who were holding some items in their hands while excitedly speaking to Li Meng. Bai Jing noticed that some people were holding cigars and bottles of wine, their eyes shining brightly as they said: "This, this, and also this."

"What are you doing?" Bai Jing raised an eyebrow as he asked. If he wasn't mistaken, those cigars and alcohol were all owned by him.

"Hehe" Liu Wei laughed to cover his embarrassment as he hid the cigars behind his back.

Bai Jing simply looked away from him. Didn't he know the saying that the more you try to cover up your actions the more obvious they become?

Li Yi smiled so proudly that if he had a tail it would also be proudly lifted up in the air. He held his son in his arms as he flaunted: "Little Meng has awakened his powers."

"Oh?" This was actually very good news. "What kind of power?" Bai Jing was also very delighted to hear this. Now that Li Meng has awakened his powers, his chances of survival in the future were even secure.

"A hidden dimension that can store many things." Li Yi said with a smile and eyes that were brimming with joy.

Bai Jing's heart ached. In fact, he would have preferred that little Meng develop an attack type power, like this, if he ever encountered zombies he would be able to sufficiently protect himself. In its early stages, the hidden dimension ability was more like an attractive but not very useful power. However, it should be said that to be able to awaken a power was still a positive thing. Plus, he couldn't put down the child's enthusiasm, so Bai Jing asked: "How much space does it have?"

"It's like a small room." Li Meng said, a blush painting his small face and his big eyes flickering with a hint of shyness and expectation as he eagerly waited for Bai Jing's praise.

"Not bad, little Meng is actually very powerful. Therefore, today I'm going to give you a very important mission, are you ready?" Bai Jing asked as he smiled gently at the boy. When it was all said and done, little Meng was still a child so all his feelings were clearly written on his face.

"Yes!" Little Meng clenched his fists and nodded his head firmly.

Li Yi rubbed his son's head and then explained: "There's about ten square meters." Little Meng was only eight years old this year, so he still didn't know how to calculate square meters. Li Yi was only able to guess the size of the dimension based on little Meng's random descriptions.
