Rebirth: Leading Families to Survive in the Apocalypse - Chapter 936: 936: Snow Spirit Flower

Chapter 936: Chapter 936: Snow Spirit Flower

To make it more convenient, Su Jin, who isn’t great at naming, specially gave the little white flower a name that she considered upscale and classy: Snow Spirit Flower.

“I thought you’d call it Little White.”

Lin Xiuyuan recalled names like Xiaohong and Da Ming.

“I didn’t dare to be so casual this time. This plant might have great use in the future.”

In the space, Su Jin looked sadly at the Snow Spirit Flower that had lost a petal. She wanted to try using her wood element ability to stimulate its growth but wasn’t sure if it would be effective.

“Logically, some flowers continue to root even without seeds as long as they are in soil, and we have a Spirit Field here. Maybe a new one will grow in a few days.”

Lu Guanhai, who had a good knowledge of flowering plants, said.

“It’s still very hopeful.”

Lu Hao agreed, though he was unsure about the flower’s growth cycle.

Under the expectant gaze of her family, Su Jin began to stimulate the growth of the Snow Spirit Flower.

Originally, making a plant grow a petal was a simple basic operation that wouldn’t consume much special ability power or time. Su Jin’s wood element ability indeed proved effective, but it took her a whole hour to grow only a fingernail-sized petal in the place of the missing one.

“This consumes too much special ability power.”

Su Jin felt that the power consumed was disproportionate to the result. After all, she was a Level Eight wood element user who could instantly grow a small forest!!

“Sister Xiao Jin, keep going, it’s working!”

Mao Qiqi cheered for Su Jin from the side.

“Mama, yay yay!”

Lu Xi clung to Su Jin the whole time she used her wood element ability, feeling very comfortable and at ease even just being next to Su Jin.

Finally, after Su Jin nearly exhausted all her ability, she managed to regrow the fifth petal. Because it took so long, Lu Xi and Lu Wang had already fallen asleep, and even Lin Xiuyuan and others nearby were using their tablets to pass the time.

“It seems this flower is indeed not ordinary.”

Nobody expected that just growing a single petal would use up most of Su Jin’s wood element ability.

“It’s okay, it’s been a while since I used this much ability.”

Su Jin said, noting that she hadn’t used so much special ability power since the last zombie tide.

“I wonder how long the research in Lian Ze’s side will take.”

Lu Hao was eagerly awaiting Lian Ze’s answer.

“I’ll focus on studying it over the next few days. Whether Lian Ze has results or not, if I can stimulate a second bloom, it would be great.”

Su Jin believed that what she envisioned was not mere illusion; she felt this flower must have some unpredictable effects.

Thus, after a family discussion, they came up with a method. Su Jin would grow some Man-eating Flowers in the alleys of H City. These flowers would consume zombies and in return restore Su Jin’s ability power, with the added advantage of longer time effects in space, coupled with efforts on Lian Ze’s side.

While many zombies in H City had been eliminated by the family, zombies in alleys would quickly gather with the scent of humans present. Su Jin planned to grow just a few Man-eating Flowers and then leave them be.

The wood element crystal cores in the space finally came into use.

Over the next few days, Su Jin felt like she had become a ‘flower farmer’ tending the Spirit Field. During the day, she’d briefly appear before Guo Yang and his group, then return indoors to enter the space and stimulate the Snow Spirit Flower.

Both Guo Yang and Liao Yifan were aware of the Snow Spirit Flower and knew Su Jin was painstakingly growing the little white flower day and night, so they didn’t disturb her.

“Su Jin, want me to help with the stimulation?”

During a meal, Yin Chengtian volunteered. Now that the Heart Talk Convenience Store was closed, he often found himself with free time.

“You be ready. Wait for me to stimulate a second bloom.”

Su Jin, of course, hadn’t forgotten about wood element ally Yin Chengtian; there was just only one Snow Spirit Flower for now.

“Makes sense. How about I keep an eye on Lian Ze’s side for any news to bring to you?”

Yin Chengtian offered, knowing Su Jin had used much of her power just on a single petal, but if the flower was indeed valuable, the energy spent would be worth it.

“No need to go; Lian Jiyue has been watching over there these past few days.”

Lu Hao said.

“No wonder I haven’t seen him.”

Yin Chengtian realized he was out of things to do.

“Want to go out and hunt zombies this afternoon? Anyone up for it?”

With everyone idle and looking bored, Kou Ning invited as he gobbled down meat.

“I’m in!”

“Me too~”

Mao Qiqi and Xue Wanyi were among the eager volunteers, and Lin Xiuyuan, Yin Chengtian, and Shi Jin also expressed their wish to join.

“Aren’t you going, brother-in-law?”

Lin Xiuyuan asked.

“No, I’ll stay home with the kids.”

Lu Hao’s words earned him thumbs-ups all around, illustrating him as a model family man.

“I really envy you guys, I wish I could go too.”

Liao Yifan lamented, never disliking her power element ability until now. She began to envy others’ ranged attack abilities, wishing she could use hers from afar instead of staying at home to rest.

“Fanfan, I’ll be here with you, plus there are loads of shows Xiuyuan downloaded. We can watch them together.”

Guo Yang comforted his pregnant wife, feeling no boredom with Liao Yifan by his side.

After finishing their meal, Su Xiangzhe, Lin Cheng, and the others went out with Kou Ning. Although they left at noon, it wouldn’t get dark until ten at night, giving them plenty of time to exhaust their abilities.

Another three days passed like this, and Su Jin finally succeeded in stimulating a new branch beside the little white flower. Though the blossom was still a bud, the achievement filled her with joy for a long time.

Meanwhile, the Man-eating Flowers in the alleys of H City hadn’t stopped working. When Su Jin and Lu Hao went to check on them, the alley was littered with abandoned shoes and body parts…

“Thank you for your hard work.”

Su Jin gathered the trash on the ground using vines, then had Lu Hao burn it to ashes.

Their appearance once again attracted waves of zombies, making the few Man-eating Flowers sway even more cheerfully…

“Xiao Jin, Xiao Hao! Go out and check; it seems there is news from Lian Ze’s side.”

Upon their return to space, Lin Tianhui, who had been waiting for them, urged them on, having just received the news directly from Chang Xuan.

“Really? We’ll head over immediately!”

Excitement sparkled in Su Jin’s eyes, and she, along with Lu Hao, swiftly exited the space.

Inside the laboratory at M Peak Management Office.

Lian Ze, with a face covered in stubble, seemed not to have cared for his appearance for days. Upon seeing Su Jin and Lu Hao, the usually solemn Lian Ze couldn’t hide a trace of excitement in his expression.
