Apocalypse: I Can See Health Bars

Chapter 101: Chapter 100: Invisibility?

"BZZT... BZZT..."

"Big Bro!! Did you go out!?"

Chu Zhaozhao’s excited shout came from the walkie-talkie, startling Lin Fan, who had been dozing off while leaning against the headboard. He was instantly wide awake...

He picked up the walkie-talkie and said lazily:

"Yeah, I went out... I went abroad... over."

"Huh...?"

Chu Zhaozhao’s disbelieving voice came from the other end of the walkie-talkie, but it seemed Chu Zhaotian snatched it from her right after.

"Brother Lin... You guys must be exhausted from watching Zhaozhao all night. You should rest a bit more. It’s nothing serious, it’s just... Xu Qian is acting a little... strange..." Chu Zhaotian said, his voice hesitant.

"Xu Qian has a superpower now too! He can turn invisible!"

Chu Zhaozhao’s voice cut in over the walkie-talkie.

"Oh? Ah..."

Lin Fan was taken aback for a moment, but then he remembered giving Xu Qian a crystal yesterday. Since Chu Zhaozhao had gained a superpower, it was to be expected that Xu Qian would awaken one overnight as well.

"You guys grab something to eat first. I’ll be up in a bit..."

Lin Fan tossed the walkie-talkie aside and glanced at the time. It was already past eight. He had planned to get up anyway, and Chu Zhaozhao’s call had woken him up completely.

Beside him, Su Qing had also been woken up. She slipped out from under the covers, stretching lazily.

The thin blanket slid down from her chest, revealing a patch of snow-white skin.

Lin Fan’s mischievous hands and feet immediately started to wander...

"Hey... Behave yourself..."

The two of them shared a tender moment before finally climbing out of bed to start the new day.

"Sister Qing, are you tired? You were watching Zhaozhao all night..."

"I’m fine. I fell asleep by the window last night anyway... Besides, does being tired have anything to do with last night? Who was it that was bothering me again this morning, huh?"

She shot Lin Fan a look as she got dressed.

"Look, the weather’s great today, hehe..."

"Great my ass, it’s overcast again... But speaking of which, I’ve had way more energy since yesterday..."

She patted her cheeks, then walked over to the mirror and took a look.

"Not a single dark circle under my eyes. I feel like even my wrinkles are gone..."

"What wrinkles..."

Lin Fan hugged her from behind, rubbing his cheek against her ear.

"Sister Qing never had any wrinkles to begin with..."

"Alright, alright, go brush your teeth..."

...

They got dressed and quickly washed up. Water was still plentiful for now, but they made sure to conserve it while still maintaining their hygiene.

"What was Chu Zhaozhao saying on the walkie-talkie just now? ’Xu Qian can turn invisible’?"

Su Qing asked casually as she washed up.

Looking at Su Qing’s back as she washed up, Lin Fan could still see a green health bar with a purple border [116/116]. There was no blue energy bar, nor were there any other changes...

Hearing her say that, Lin Fan responded a bit unnaturally:

"Um... Sister Qing..."

"Huh? It’s okay, you don’t have to worry about me. I’m already happy with how things are..."

As if she knew what Lin Fan was thinking, Su Qing walked over, gave him a light kiss, and looked at him as she spoke.

"It’s probably like in the movies. Maybe it has something to do with a person’s natural talent?"

She pursed her lips, her eyes dimming for a moment.

"As for me, I’m probably the ’hardworking type’ with no special talent..."

But she quickly regained her sparkle, blinking her big, beautiful eyes at Lin Fan.

"That’s a good thing, though! If I had Zhaozhao’s power, I’d probably have spoons stuck to my forehead that I couldn’t get off..."

As she said this, she seemed to think of something and covered her mouth, starting to laugh.

"Heh... Hahaha..."

Su Qing’s mood was infectious. The thought of her with spoons stuck to her forehead made Lin Fan chuckle. But then he imagined Chu Zhaozhao running around with a flock of spoons chasing her, and he couldn’t help but laugh out loud.

"But Sister Qing, I think I’m starting to get a clue about your ability. I just need to observe it a little more... But I’m pretty sure it’ll become more obvious the more zombies you kill..."

Su Qing rubbed her face, a smile playing on her lips as she looked at the man before her—younger than her, but for some reason, sometimes seeming more mature.

’I don’t know if he really knows something or is just trying to comfort me, but it doesn’t matter. This is already good enough.’

"Mhm! I believe you!"

Lin Fan looked at Su Qing. He wasn’t sure if it was just his imagination, but he felt like she had become even more beautiful than before...

He reached out and stroked her cheek, then nuzzled his face against hers and whispered in her ear:

"Mhm... Don’t worry..."

...

"Look!"

When Lin Fan and Su Qing arrived on the sixth floor, they saw Chu Zhaozhao with a braised chicken leg sticking out of her mouth, putting on an acrobatics show...

A pile of random objects was floating in mid-air, orbiting her head like comets.

A kettle, a flashlight, an iron, a set of keys, and a few wrenches—all miscellaneous items from the cardboard boxes in 601—had been pulled out to serve as her props.

"Brother Lin..."

The moment Chu Zhaotian saw Lin Fan enter, he quickly stood up to greet him, then shot Chu Zhaozhao a meaningful look.

BANG!

"Ah!"

Chu Zhaozhao tried to put the things down, but in her haste, the floating objects suddenly contracted toward the center of their orbit, crashing into each other with a loud bang before scattering and falling everywhere!

Seeing this, Lin Fan quickly took two steps forward, catching the iron with one hand and snatching two wrenches with the other. As for the rest...

CLANG, THUD, DING, DONG...

A mess of metal objects rained down, pelting Chu Zhaozhao on the head.

"Ah! Oof..."

’[137/150]. She took 2 points of damage...’

Seeing Chu Zhaozhao crouched on the ground clutching her head, Chu Zhaotian hurried to her side, worried about his sister. After all, under normal circumstances, getting hit on the head with a wrench would be a serious injury...

"Hehe..."

Lin Fan, however, wasn’t worried. He had caught the heaviest items, anyway. This was one of the good things about an Awakened One’s constitution; bumps and bruises weren’t a big deal. It still hurt, but they healed quickly.

Sure enough, after a little while, Chu Zhaozhao stood up, pouting with a resentful look on her face.

"Got a little carried away, didn’t you... You’ll be fine in a moment..."

Seeing her expression, Lin Fan broke into a smile and reached out to pinch her cheek.

"Save your energy. We’re going out to fight zombies soon..."

He glanced at Chu Zhaotian. ’Still in the yellow at [76/100]...’

Composing himself, Lin Fan scanned the room. He didn’t see Xu Qian, so he asked:

"Where’s Xu Qian? What did you guys say happened to him?"

"Oh!"

The moment she heard this, Chu Zhaozhao seemed to forget all about her headache. She hurried over and whispered to Lin Fan:

"Xu Qian has a superpower too—invisibility! But it seems like he can’t control it, so he’s too scared to leave his room..."

"Invisibility?"

Lin Fan immediately asked,

"What kind of invisibility? Does he turn transparent or something...?"

"He doesn’t turn transparent... Ugh, I can’t really explain it. Big Bro, you should go see for yourself..."

With that, she started pushing Lin Fan toward the apartment across the hall.
