Chapter 700: Chapter 700: Seeing the Pregnancy
Although the zombie tide at the E-city base had only lasted one afternoon and one evening, everyone felt as though they had lived through a long century.
The next morning, the well-rested survivors returned to the walls of the E-city base. Facing the undying cries of the zombie tide, they no longer felt the fear and panic of the previous day. Instead, they displayed serious cooperation and hope for the future.
The family didnât know how many zombies they had killed. Piles of zombie corpses on the stone platform were cleared away, and all were turned into ashes by the flames of the Mysterious Fire Fan...
More and more people lined up to take part, and the family gradually became protectors, handing over the main battleground to the survivors of the E-city base who had gotten the rhythm down. They only stepped in to help the survivors when high-level zombies appeared or someone was in danger.
Besides sitting on the city wall using her Special Ability to kill zombies, Su Jin was also replenishing Lu Hao and others with Special Ability power. Zhuozhuo noted something different about Su Jin.
"Su Jin, are you also..."
Zhuozhuo hesitated to ask, although there seemed to be no change in Su Jinâs current appearance, she could still discern some subtle changes. Could it be that Su Jin was pregnant?!
Su Jin smiled and nodded: "Five months already."
"Really? Congratulations! When I was pregnant, others didnât believe it. They even said that women in the Apocalypse were infertile, which was so hard for me, you know?"
Zhuozhuo expressed her surprise at finding someone like herself.
"You... Does giving birth hurt?"
Su Jin hesitated for a moment, then pulled Zhuozhuo aside to whisper. She was curious about childbirth for Special Ability Users, as their physique was different from ordinary people.
"It hurts! How could it not? I almost lost control of my ability and burnt down the delivery room!"
Zhuozhuo recalled the painful memory, feeling as if she had died and come back to life during childbirth.
"..."
Su Jin was somewhat disappointed. It seemed that giving birth for Special Ability Users was still painful. She had previously hoped optimistically that it would be different for them...
Seeing Su Jinâs somewhat frightened expression, Zhuozhuo realized she might have overreacted, possibly causing Su Jin some psychological trauma.
"But Su Jin, donât be scared. Actually, once the pain is over, everything feels better. Seeing the baby makes you super happy."
Zhuozhuo tried to reassure her.
"Okay, Iâll prepare myself mentally. Are you still living in the same place?"
Su Jin asked.
Although Zhuozhuo didnât know why Su Jin asked this, she was indeed still living in the previous location with Cen Chuâs team, but she hadnât expected Su Jin to propose visiting them.
"I know, you want to see the baby, right? I can show you right now. Heâs super cute, let me tell you!"
Zhuozhuo said as she pulled out a cellphone. Excited, she opened the photo album and moved closer to Su Jin, incessantly describing the baby in the videos.
Su Jin suddenly felt that todayâs Zhuozhuo had changed a lot. The once tomboyish girl had turned into a woman overflowing with maternal love, but she seemed much happier than before.
"So cute!"
Su Jin was captivated by the baby in the video, not even realizing Lu Hao had walked up behind her.
Lu Hao had been directing the situation on behalf of Lian Jiyue all along, but he had kept an eye on Su Jinâs activities. Seeing Su Jin chatting happily, he walked over in her direction.
"Whatâs so cute?"
Lu Haoâs voice suddenly sounded behind Su Jin, startling both of them.
"How did you get here?"
Su Jin wanted to push this mood spoiler away, but Lu Hao clearly showed interest in the baby video on the cellphone.
"Boy or girl?"
Lu Hao asked.
"Uh, a boy."
Zhuozhuo answered truthfully. She was still somewhat afraid of this man who could burn a thousand zombies in an instant, and she wondered where she had gotten the courage to approach such a man before.
"He is quite cute,"
Lu Hao said, though he thought a girl might have been cuter.
Seeing that both of them enjoyed looking at her baby, Zhuozhuoâs face flushed with excitement. What could be more pride-worthy than having others praise your own child?
However, Zhuozhuo didnât continue talking with Su Jin for too long because she had just used her Special Ability and needed to rush back to nurse.
"You must be tired too, weâre going to head back to rest,"
Lu Hao said, pointing to Lian Jiyue who had already returned to his post.
They had been fighting continuously all morning, and the high-level zombies had almost been completely wiped out. Some higher-ranking Ability Users remained on the stone platform, and with Lian Jiyueâs arrival, they could go back and rest for a while.
"Okay,"
Su Jin nodded. She wasnât tired and actually wanted to go back and prepare some maternity and baby goods for Zhuozhuo.
When Huang Yunxiang learned that Su Jin knew a mother who had just given birth here, she too wanted to go and visit.
"Itâs been so long since Iâve seen a child, Iâll go with Xiao Jin,"
Huang Yunxiang said.
"Great, Auntie, Iâm not sure what to give them, please come help me choose,"
Su Jin called out from the supermarket section in the Space. Even though she was pregnant, she lacked experience.
Eventually, following Huang Yunxiangâs advice, Su Jin picked out some baby clothes and diapers, and also prepared some braised meat and eggs from the Space, thinking it would be better for Zhuozhuo as she was breastfeeding.
"You donât need to worry about the outside of the base, weâll head over there shortly,"
Lu Hao also wanted to go, but it didnât seem quite appropriate for a big man to do so, having Huang Yunxiang there would be enough.
"Alright, be careful,"
After Su Jin had replenished everyoneâs Special Abilities, she and Huang Yunxiang left the Space and headed toward the courtyard she remembered.
Zhuozhuo hadnât expected Su Jin to arrive so soon, and to bring such valuable items.
What her baby was wearing right now had been made by Sister Li, from the team, cutting up adult clothes into baby outfits, something Zhuozhuo had never even considered.
"I collected some stuff along the way, keeping it wasnât really useful,"
Su Jin said with a smile.
Huang Yunxiang, holding the baby in her arms like a precious treasure, said, "This child is well-grown, he will definitely be a handsome young man."
"Haha, I hope so, just as you say,"
Zhuozhuo said happily. Seeing that there were no strangers around, Zhuozhuo couldnât help but ask Su Jin, "Su Jin, you are a Dual-Element Ability User, arenât you?"
After a moment of surprise, Su Jin answered, "Yes, Dual-Element."
