Amidst the cherry blossoms dancing in the wind, Misaki opened the old diary and read the words of the promise written there.

Taking a deep breath, Xiaoming firmly held the secret letter given to him by his mother.

As the piglets were born, Misaki slowly corrected the sow's position, grabbing one of the piglets' hind legs and, in sync with the sow's rhythm, finally pulled out the first piglet.

Heaving a long sigh, the first piglet was born smoothly, making the subsequent births much easier, and the sow's cries of pain also diminished.

Tang Sanli and Yin Yiping watched in amazement, their faces filled with disbelief.

"I remember now, damn, Chu Nan, he... he is a veterinarian. This... this is really a bit too much." Seeing Chu Nan, who had been so brave in killing the zombies and treating Can'er, now helping a sow give birth, they felt a bit dizzy.

One by one, five tiny piglets were born with Chu Nan's help.

Chu Nan heaved a long sigh, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

In theory, after assisting in the birth, antibiotics and other drugs should be administered to the sow, but of course, there were no such conditions here.

Seeing the sow stop calling and calm down, and the five tiny piglets wobbling to drink milk, Chu Nan's face showed a faint smile.

"Whether you can survive or not is up to you. I can only help so much."

After saying this, Chu Nan turned and left.

The three of them left, and Tang Sanli looked at Chu Nan and said, "Brother, I really admire you. You can even help a sow give birth. This... this is what time is it?" He felt a bit at a loss.

Chu Nan smiled faintly and said, "I'm used to being a veterinarian. Sometimes, animals are more reliable than people."

Tang Sanli and Yin Yiping were slightly stunned by these words.

Leaving the building, they did not encounter any danger on the way. Half an hour later, a large road finally appeared in front of them.

On the road, a car was parked, and a group of people were surrounding it, attacking and smashing the car body and windows, making loud noises.

Soon, the three of them realized that this group was not normal people but zombie-like monsters.

"Nine, let's go." Chu Nan casually picked up a solid piece of concrete about the size of three fists from the ground and walked up first.

Nine zombie-like monsters were not a big deal.

Tang Sanli and Yin Yiping hesitated for a moment and then rushed up.

"Killing enough zombie-like monsters can lead to evolution and gaining powerful strength to protect oneself."

Chu Nan's words gave Tang Sanli and Yin Yiping more motivation, and the three of them quickly accelerated and rushed up.

The car windows were smashed by the zombie-like monsters' fists, and screams came from inside. It turned out that there were living people in the car, which is why these zombie-like monsters were attacking.

When Chu Nan and the others rushed within twenty meters, they saw a girl in black stockings being grabbed by the shoulders and dragged out of the car by a zombie-like monster.

The girl was terrified, screaming desperately.

The three of them rushing up also caught the attention of the other zombie-like monsters. Soon, five of them abandoned their attack on the people in the car and pounced on the three of them.

Tang Sanli and Yin Yiping were still somewhat afraid, but remembering Chu Nan's words, they mustered their courage and rushed up.

The electric baton's electric shock was not very effective against the zombie-like monsters, so Tang Sanli also picked up a stone and smashed it into the head of a zombie-like monster that was trying to bite him.

Chu Nan accelerated, and even without stimulating the secretion of adrenaline, his physical abilities had improved, and he felt his movements were much more agile than before.

It seemed that the second-level gene center and the original force's transformation and evolution of the body were indeed effective.

He directly dodged the zombie-like monster pouncing at him and smashed the concrete in his hand into the head of the zombie-like monster that was dragging the girl in black stockings out of the car.

Blood immediately flowed out, and the zombie-like monster released the girl and tried to grab Chu Nan.

Chu Nan growled and, holding a stone, smashed it again.

The zombie-like monster swayed.

Chu Nan stepped back, and the monster fell to the ground, no longer moving.

Without controlling the super secretion of adrenaline, in a normal state, Chu Nan's strength had also increased. It only took two hits to smash the zombie-like monster's head.

The girl in black stockings, seeing the bloody scene, covered her mouth and screamed.

The car was also opened from inside, and two young men rushed out.

Seeing people come to their rescue, the people who had been hiding in the car became bolder.

Tang Sanli and Yin Yiping did not show mercy and each smashed the head of a zombie-like monster.

Nine zombie-like monsters, three of which were quickly taken down, greatly boosted Tang Sanli and Yin Yiping's confidence. They roared and pounced on the second zombie-like monster.

Chu Nan deliberately encouraged Tang Sanli and Yin Yiping to kill more zombie-like monsters. According to his estimation, the number of zombie-like monsters Tang Sanli had killed on this journey was not small, and he was probably not far from breaking through.

If they could activate their gene centers and gain the power to control adrenaline, their chances of survival would naturally increase.

Otherwise, if Chu Nan stimulated his adrenaline and enhanced his physical abilities, he could have easily taken care of the nine zombie-like monsters in a blink.

When Chu Nan smashed the head of the third zombie-like monster and casually threw away the concrete covered in red and white, all nine zombie-like monsters were dealt with.

Chu Nan took care of three, Tang Sanli and Yin Yiping each took care of two, and the two young men who came out of the car each took care of one.

Except for Chu Nan, the others were panting heavily, especially the two young men, who were pale and breathing heavily, not so much from exhaustion but from the shock of the scene.

After the nine monsters were all taken care of, a woman in jeans, her face covered in powder, trembling, slowly got out of the car and suddenly vomited violently.

One of the young men, a long-haired youth, hurriedly went to comfort her. The woman in jeans fell into his arms and cried, having been truly terrified.

There were originally two men and two women in the car. They had been surrounded by the nine monsters and were so scared that they locked the doors and windows and did not dare to come out until Chu Nan and the others took action. The two young men then mustered the courage to join the fight.

The front two wheels of the car were stuck in a crack in the ground, making it immobile, which was probably why they were trapped here.

Chu Nan contracted the withered pineal glands of the nine fallen zombie-like monsters and smiled faintly.

He had collected nine more. If he searched and collected them diligently, there were many such zombie-like monsters. However, his main goal was to return home to find his parents and ensure their safety.

Otherwise, if he seriously searched for zombie-like monsters, Chu Nan was confident that he could quickly gather enough original force to activate his gene center again.

The two pairs of young men and women, after vomiting for a while, finally calmed down. The woman in black stockings walked up to Chu Nan and the others and said timidly, "Thank you, thank you so much."

Chu Nan did not speak. The woman was wearing a skirt with black stockings, which looked very sexy and trendy, but now the stockings had a large hole, making her look quite disheveled.

Tang Sanli said, "No need to be polite. We are all in the same boat. The road is severely damaged, and the car can't move. Take the essentials and leave early. Follow us, and we'll see what we can do when we get to the city."

The nine zombie-like monsters had terrified them, and hearing Tang Sanli's words, the four of them did not dare to delay. They immediately got out of the car, took their phones, wallets, and other essentials. The car owner, a long-haired young man, looked at the car with a pained expression but, given the situation and the fact that the phone lines were down, he had no choice but to abandon the car.

"I'm Tang Sanli, this is Chu Nan, and this is Yin Yiping. What are your names?" Tang Sanli asked the two pairs of young men and women.

They introduced themselves. The car owner, a long-haired young man, was named Wei Zhenan. The woman in jeans was his girlfriend, Jin Qianqian. The woman in black stockings was named Qi Ling, and the other young man was her boyfriend, Yan Zhengyu.

They explained that the four of them had been on a self-driving trip to a nearby city and were returning when the earthquake struck, damaging the ground and trapping them here.

Tang Sanli was a bit puzzled and asked, "The earthquake happened the day before yesterday. Why are you still in the car today? Logically, you should have abandoned the car and left long ago."

The four of them were a bit embarrassed. Wei Zhenan explained that after the earthquake, they had cautiously driven the car until it got stuck. They were reluctant to abandon the car and stayed there, thinking that rescue personnel would arrive soon after the earthquake, so they waited.

Chu Nan and the others were speechless but, thinking about it, it was precisely because they stayed there and did not wander around that they survived. Otherwise, it was uncertain whether they would have survived.

"Be careful. After the earthquake, everything is different. There are these zombie-like monsters everywhere." Tang Sanli kindly warned them, "If you see suitable weapons on the road, take them for self-defense."

With the addition of the four new people, their group now numbered seven. They followed the road, and this time their luck was good. They walked for a full hour, covering a considerable distance, before encountering a large crack that they could not cross.

With the road blocked, they had to detour and find another way out.

"Can we rest for a while...?" Jin Qianqian finally could not hold back. She was pampered and had been walking in high heels for an hour, which was unbearable.

Qi Ling was in the same situation but had been enduring it.

Chu Nan stopped and, seeing that they were all wearing high heels, frowned. He should have picked out two pairs of suitable flat shoes from the zombie-like monsters earlier for them to change into. Wearing high heels for an hour was indeed difficult for them.

"Just bear with it a little longer. We'll find suitable shoes for you when we can." Chu Nan finally spoke, his eyes narrowing slightly. With the road blocked, the chances of encountering zombie-like monsters would increase significantly.
