I hacked through the chaotic world with my blade

Gu Hang looked up at the sky covered by green clouds, tightly clenching his fists, his eyes filled with yearning, a yearning to become an Awakener.

"I've been waiting for this day for so long, let me become an Awakener, I'm willing to take on responsibilities I shouldn't have."

He gazed at the sky, shouting in his heart.

He was even prepared to stand under the thunderstorm, strip off his clothes, and fully embrace the coming storm, using the rain to cleanse his body and invigorate every cell within him.

"These clouds seem a bit strange."

Gu Hang was somewhat afraid of the greenish clouds; although he hadn't become an Awakener, he had seen thunderstorms before, just normal ones, with thick dark clouds. When had there ever been such a situation?

His heart hesitated.

"Forget it, I'd better stay home."

After thinking it over, Gu Hang decided to hide at home and watch instead; there was no need to stay in an unknown thunderstorm, in case something went wrong.

Having figured this out, Gu Hang hurriedly left, then sent a message in the group.

[The color of the cloud layer of this thunderstorm seems off, it's best to stay home, don't risk standing in the rain.]

The group discussion was intense.

Everyone was thinking about the coming thunderstorm and who might awaken.

It was clearly morning, yet the sky was already green, with a sinister and eerie feeling that sent chills down one's spine.

He Qing looked at the sky outside, a very grave expression on his face.

"It's about time for me, He Qing."

Thinking that Zhou Yang could become an Awakener, for him, He Qing, to become one didn't seem unreasonable. He wanted to go out in the rain, but seeing Gu Hang's message in the group, he dismissed the idea.

Better not to take such a risk.

Ding!

There was a message notification.

Clicking on it, it was a message from Zhou Yang.

[Zhou Yang: Congratulations, He, your chance has come!]

Upon seeing this message, He Qing frowned slightly. Oh boy, he knew Zhou Yang was shady, but he didn't expect him to be this shady. If in the end, he didn't become an Awakener, that guy would absolutely regretfully say... I didn't think He would fail either.

And then he would definitely pat him on the shoulder and say, Let's continue to work hard next time.

Therefore, He Qing promptly replied.

[He Qing: What opportunity? Awakener? I'm not that interested.]

He had to say it firmly, not giving the other any chance.

Zhou Yang, who had become an Awakener, supervised the Huang City Prison, managing a lot of people, and had a bit of power, to say one wasn't envious would be a lie.

He Qing put away his phone, looking at the sky now shrouded in green outside, it truly was the first time seeing such a situation, at least the previous thunderstorms were definitely not like this.

Rumble!

Thunder boomed, with thunderbolts like dragons in the green clouds, crackling loudly, like a giant net covering the entire sky.

Crash!

A torrential downpour.

The entire city was instantly shrouded in green rainwater.

Lin Fan stared solemnly, doubting whether this thunderstorm would indeed bring out an Awakener, he picked up the camera and took a photo of the distant sky.

He needed to capture these anomalies, to save them in the Zombie Album as data for future research.

Sliding open the glass door, he stepped onto the balcony, extending his hand, letting the rain fall onto his palm, the water gathering there was green, without any sensation, nothing unusual happened.

Given his current sensitivity, if there was something wrong with the rainwater.

He would immediately react.

The phone rang.

It was Professor Xia calling, he answered the phone.

"Professor Xia..."

"Xiao Fan, I just collected rainwater from this storm, and discovered a serious issue. This rainwater has no effects on humans, but if zombies come into contact with it, their genes will undergo self-improvement."

On the other end, Professor Xia's tone was very serious, clearly indicating concern.

"You mean this rainwater can help zombies evolve?"

"Yes, that's what I mean, but fortunately, the scope of this violent storm is neither global nor nationwide, it is centered on Huang City and spans a province, but even so, it's extremely troublesome."

Listening to what Professor Xia said.

Lin Fan thought about the area he had cleared, whether it included one province, apparently it hadn't, then the number of zombies bathing in this green rain could be numerous, if they could indeed perfect their genes, zombies would become even more horrific.

Of course, zombies are already terrifying as they are now.

As for becoming more terrifying, what those Awakeners would have to face would definitely be...

Thinking of this.

Lin Fan thought of Officer Huang, according to Professor Xia's explanation, this rain was beneficial to zombies.

"Professor Xia, let's end the call, I need to contact Officer Huang."

With that, he hung up and immediately dialed Officer Huang.

Ring, ring...

No one answered for the time being.

"Officer Huang, why won't you pick up my call?" Lin Fan looked at the dialing number, feeling slightly anxious. Not to mention how this rain came about, if this rain could improve Officer Huang's genes, then it would be an unmissable opportunity.

He knew Officer Huang had been roaming outside, certainly hunting many zombies, as for why he hadn't answered the phone now, perhaps he hadn't encountered any living survivors, or he had met survivors but they did not meet Officer Huang's requirements and were dealt with on the spot, it wasn't impossible.
