On the other side, Xiaobai entered the portal and arrived in a modern metropolis.
If Zhang Chen had crossed over here, he would have adapted very quickly, as it was very similar to Earth in the past.
But for Xiaobai, this was an entirely new world.
She had only followed Zhang Chen to such a world once to play in an amusement park, and Zhang Chen had strictly forbidden her from using her powers.
So... although the amusement park was fun, it was because Zhang Chen was there, and she enjoyed playing with Zhang Chen, Zhang Mo, and others.
Now... it was finally her turn to cross over on her own.
"Dad asked me to find the source of the energy fluctuation, to find the meteorite fragments. I must complete this mission!"
"But... he didn't say how long it would take!"
"I remember Dad saying that the time flow in this world is much faster than in the apocalypse. That means if I play here for a while longer, only a few minutes might have passed when I get back. It won't have any impact..."
"Decided, then I'll have some fun here!"
Xiaobai hummed a tune as she skipped along the road.
She was extremely curious about everything around her.
Suddenly, her gaze was drawn to a man and a woman standing by the roadside.
It was a small path, and the man stood by the roadside, holding a bouquet of roses.
The woman stood by the roadside, smiling as she walked towards the man.
Xiaobai rarely saw such a scene in the apocalypse. Firstly, there were no roses at all in the apocalypse, and secondly, people were focused on survival. Even if there were romantic moments, they wouldn't be like this.
Purely romantic for romance's sake.
"This seems very interesting!"
Xiaobai stood aside curiously, watching.
Suddenly, a figure appeared rapidly and rushed towards the woman.
"Ability user? That speed is incredible!"
Xiaobai couldn't help but feel a stir in her heart, wanting to race this guy.
However, before she could even start, a shocking scene unfolded.
The man with extremely high movement speed, who could have easily dodged the woman, did not stop or swerve. Instead, he crashed directly into her.
In an instant.
Under the high-speed impact, the woman's body exploded everywhere.
The man holding the flowers saw his smile instantly turn to sadness, fear, and confusion...
At this moment, the rapidly moving man finally stopped and waved at the man holding the flowers, saying:
"Sorry, I couldn't stop in time!"
After speaking, he sped off again.
He left the man holding the flowers kneeling on the ground, his hands in despair.
"This guy... is a bad person!"
Xiaobai's expression turned stern, and her speed surged!
*Boom!*
The ground was cracked by the force of her takeoff, and the shockwave kicked up the fallen leaves.
Before the leaves could even settle back to the ground, Xiaobai had already caught up to the man who was sprinting, and they ran side by side.
The man was startled when he saw Xiaobai.
He was a speed-type ability user, and a top one at that. He hadn't expected Xiaobai to catch up so easily.
*Bang!*
Seeing that the man not only intended to stop but was accelerating to escape, Xiaobai immediately reached out and grabbed his shoulder.
At the same time, Xiaobai instantly stopped.
The man was thrown forward by inertia, but his shoulder was held by Xiaobai, causing him to flip sideways and then fall heavily to the ground.
The spot where Xiaobai had grabbed his shoulder revealed bone.
Even with his incredibly strong physique, he couldn't withstand Xiaobai's grip.
"What's wrong with you?!"
"You hurt me!"
The man clutched his shoulder, gritting his teeth as he stood up.
"Why did you just crush that woman? Did she provoke you?"
Xiaobai tilted her head and asked.
"I don't know her, but she blocked my way. It's her own fault. What does it have to do with me?"
The man said matter-of-factly.
"Isn't this a peaceful world? Not the apocalypse. Even in the apocalypse, killing has a reason. You actually killed her just because she was in front of you?"
"You could have just dodged her!"
Xiaobai frowned and continued to question.
"I am an ability user, I have talent. They are ordinary people, and they deserve such an end!"
"Don't you think the strong should have privileges?"
"You are also an ability user. Would you be willing to be on the same level as those without any abilities? Or even let them decide your fate?"
The man said righteously.
"No one can decide my fate, but I know that sometimes rules must be followed. If everyone breaks the rules, that world would actually be a form of apocalypse!"
Xiaobai didn't have such high aspirations; these words were taught at Apocalypse University, and she was merely repeating them.
When she was studying, she didn't understand the meaning of this sentence at all.
Now, seeing this man who did whatever he pleased, Xiaobai seemed to understand a little.
"Stop talking nonsense, I don't know what you're saying!"
The man shouted.
"Uh... in the apocalypse, no one talks to someone stronger than them like that."
"So uncivilized!"
*Slap!*
Xiaobai swiftly slapped the man.
With this one slap, the man's head spun twice on his neck, and then his entire body rotated before he collapsed to the ground.
"Sigh, I couldn't hold back and killed this guy!"
"But Apocalypse University taught that if you act, you must eliminate all members of the enemy camp to prevent retaliation."
"However... how many accomplices does this guy have..."
Xiaobai took a wallet from the man's pocket. It contained a wad of cash and a pass with the words "Ability User Federation" written on it.
"Then I'll go check out this place!"
Xiaobai walked to the roadside and hailed a taxi.
After she got in, the driver noticed the man lying on the roadside.
Seeing the gruesome sight of the man's head turned 540 degrees, the driver's hands trembled on the steering wheel.
"To the Ability User Federation!"
Xiaobai said.
"Okay... Please don't kill me, I'll definitely get you to your destination!"
"Also... this is the money I earned today, it's all yours!"
The driver nervously handed over a wad of change.
"Thank you, you're a really good person!"
Xiaobai nodded and smiled.
This driver could tell I didn't have money and was willing to give me his earnings. He seems like a good person.
"N-no problem..."
The driver slowly pressed the accelerator and drove towards the Ability User Federation in the city center.
