Chapter 17 Starry Sky Devours

"Starry Sky Devour? What a nice name!"

Chang Kai Tong agreed with Luo Luo.

"It sounds so powerful!"

An Nuan also nodded excitedly.

In her previous life, her ability was invisibility, and because her level was too low, she could only remain invisible for half an hour at most.

This ability might sound amazing.

But it was actually useless!

Humans had a body temperature of around 36°C, while zombies generally had a temperature of about 15°C.

Most safe houses later installed thermal and infrared systems, which detected body heat.

If she wanted to be invisible in a safe house, she would be detected no matter where she went, unless she wore an insulated suit.

Therefore, in safe houses, her invisibility was useless.

In the outside world, zombies' vision was inherently weak; they relied mostly on smell and hearing.

An Nuan's ability was also not very useful among zombies.

Every time they went out to search for supplies, her position was always reconnaissance, and she received fewer goods upon returning.

Due to her ability, both the mutant team and the primitive humans treated her as an outsider.

But now it was different; her ability had changed!

"The name Starry Sky Devour was given by someone else. I saw this ability user before; she was level five and directly devoured three hundred zombies at once!"

"Three hundred? That's mass destruction!"

Luo Luo's face contorted in fear.

Something so fierce, capable of eliminating three hundred at once, was more powerful than a bomb!

Luo Luo asked curiously, "At level five, what's the maximum number of zombies Starry Sky Devour can kill?"

"I'm not sure, but I heard it once killed seven hundred."

Luo Luo gasped, and her gaze towards An Nuan changed.

Chang Kai Tong's eyes also filled with admiration and excitement.

An Nuan twisted her chest with her hands; there was something else she hadn't told them.

Although the Starry Sky Devour ability was very powerful, capable of killing many zombies, even humans, at once.

It could not kill creatures exceeding its own level.

For example, she was currently only a level two ability user, so she couldn't devour a level three zombie; she could only attack with other physical means.

Headshots were still the best.

And abilities had their limits.

In her previous life, Chang Kai Tong had the "Thunder Descent" ability; other lightning-element ability users only had different moves.

It was hard to grasp without seeing it, but the actual difference was huge.

Precision strikes of cascading thunder were very different from throwing lightning.

An Nuan didn't feel guilty about taking someone else's ability.

She had acquired it through her own strength and luck; if they had the ability, they could try to take it back!

Anyway, they couldn't take it away even if they ate her!

"Hehe, this is too awesome!"

An Nuan collapsed onto the sofa, giggling, her legs kicking in the air.

Chang Kai Tong blushed again.

The room lights suddenly turned red, and a piercing warning sound blared from the computer.

Then a large hand appeared, crushing a pair of eyeballs.

"Hmph, childish!"

An Nuan stood up and wrapped herself in a towel blanket to find clothes.

The news from Black Smoke had allowed the three of them to advance, and it had also helped her seize the Starry Sky Devour ability.

Regardless of who Black Smoke was, they were now in a behind-the-scenes information role.

The smartest approach now was to cooperate with Black Smoke and follow their instructions.

Taking it one step at a time and maximizing benefits was the most reasonable strategy.

An Nuan put on a light purple yoga suit. The sports bra revealed her waistline and outlined her perfect bust.

Luo Luo even praised her figure!

Just then, the phone rang.

There was still electricity, and the network hadn't collapsed, so a phone call was normal.

However, she hadn't expected the caller to be him!

"Hello, Second Uncle, it's rare for you to call me."

"Xiao Nuan, we're family, so I won't beat around the bush. You've stockpiled a lot of food and daily necessities, right?"

An Nuan sneered.

She had anticipated that An Dong would investigate her, so she hadn't intended to hide it.

But An Dong wasn't Black Smoke; he didn't have access to all the information.

"Don't stay silent!"

An Dong said urgently, "I know you planned to start a company and got a lot of goods. I want to discuss with you, selling me half... no, a third, I'll pay for it!"

"Second Uncle, are you starving? It's so hot in there, and you must be lacking water?"

"You..."

"Am I right, and you're getting angry? Then come out! The rain outside has stopped, so come out and buy food with money."

An Dong's face turned black with anger.

If he could get out, he would have already done so; he wouldn't be babbling here!

His office had surveillance cameras. He had noticed some people acting strangely yesterday, and today he was terrified!

Real people eating people, blood splattering everywhere like free paint.

An Dong simply didn't have the courage to go in.

But he had already heavily hired a helicopter to rescue him. As soon as the helicopter arrived, he would be saved.

However, while waiting in the building before leaving, it was quite boring, and it wouldn't hurt to get his hands on the little bitch's supplies!

"Xiao Nuan, after all, the money you have was given by me. Are you treating me like this?"

"You gave it to me? I remember it was pay first, receive goods later; you bought it from me at a discount, Second Uncle. Don't pretend to be a victim after profiting!"

"Is this how you speak to an elder? Don't forget, your supplies were also bought with my money! Don't be ungrateful."

"Exactly, without our money, could you be so carefree?"

A woman's voice came from the phone.

An Nuan recognized it as Xie Xinxin, An Dong's wife.

Xie Xinxin had always been passive-aggressive towards her.

When she was pushed into the zombie horde, Xie Xinxin had bet 20 bottles of water, wagering she wouldn't last 5 minutes.

An Nuan still remembered how ugly Xie Xinxin's expression was.

An Nuan smiled.

"Auntie, don't be angry. How about this, I'll come over to your place to discuss it. It's hard to explain everything over the phone; it's better to talk face-to-face."

"Good! I'm in the CEO's office at An Xin Building. You know how to get here, right?"

"I know. I'll be there shortly."

An Nuan hung up the phone and immediately rolled her eyes 180 degrees.

That office used to be hers; how could An Nuan not know? It was ridiculous.

"Luo Luo, I'm going to An Xin Building. You and your brother wait for me at home."

"No!"

Both of them objected simultaneously.

Luo Luo: "There are so many zombies at An Xin Building. How can you deal with them alone?"

Chang Kai Tong: "Sister Luo is right. We should go with you; more people mean more help!"

"An Dong lured me over there, so he must have a backup plan. The office has surveillance, so he definitely knows the situation in the building."

"Xiao Nuan, what are you planning to do?"

An Nuan stuck out her butt; Luo Luo knew exactly what kind of 'fart' she was about to 'release.'

It was precisely because she understood her so well that Luo Luo realized this little girl had ill intentions!

"An Dong definitely has a helicopter arranged. If I die after entering the building, he, as my only relative, will inherit everything."

"If I don't die, he can use his numbers to control me and force me to hand over my supplies. But... he's too naive!"

She was no longer the An Nuan of the past; An Dong's scheme wouldn't succeed at all!
