Reborn As A Doomsday Villainess-Chapter 139: I’ll marry you when it’s all over

They headed back to the living room and Qingran decided to address them on their situation.

"So everyone, we are in what we call an apocalypse, as someone who has experienced this before, I’m telling you surviving this nightmare is far from easy. This is my system Lingquan."

A flash of black appeared as she said this, Lingquan in his cat form stood next to her.

"That thing...did it just appear from nowhere?" Meng Nian shuddered but Feng

Yuxi was unbothered, she had seen this same cat with Qingran when she came to the court.

"So are we like dead? Is this hell?" free𝑤ebnovel.com

Qingran shook her head and sat down as well.

"We’re not in hell and were certainly not dead. Lingquan please explain this apocalypse cause even I don’t understand."

Lingquan nodded and a white dashboard appeared above him, so they could read what he was saying, Qingran was the only one who could hear him.

[The apocalypse was full-blown last time, the whole world was affected. But this time, only certain places in the country were affected. Zone 1 which we are currently in is Moonsai, the population in this zone is 300,000 currently, it was 400,000 originally but the death rates are increasing by the minute."

[The second zone is Shangdai, third is Guyoung, forth is Samyoung and fifth is Jindao.]

[60 cities was left untouched from the apocalypse, these cities house all the business sectors in the country. And also 2 million people were selected for the apocalypse and shared into these 5 zones. And lastly, the duration for the apocalypse is: 30 months.]

"2 years and 6 months." Qingran stroked her chin, if they could survive this, they would be out of this nightmare in 30 months.

"Then the people who aren’t participating...they just sit there and watch us?"

[Good question, I’ll explain how it works now. Each zone is covered by a zone, the distance between each zone is 1600km, to the people outside, the zones, the people here...they never existed here. It’s like a whole new world here.]

Bai Shiyue bit her lips, what s cruel fate.

"So if we die here, we’ll just be forgotten because to our loved ones we never existed."

Feng Yuxi lips twisted, what a sick joke.

Qingran leaned forward, elbows on her knees, studying the reactions on their faces.

Numb disbelief and quiet fury simmered in the air.

The room felt heavier, weighed down by unspoken fears.

"That’s exactly it." Qingran said softly.

"Our memories, our existence, everything’s been erased outside this place. We’re like ghosts, plucked from the timeline."

Meng Nian’s voice was laced with desperation.

"What’s the point of surviving if we’re already forgotten?"

Qingran’s response was firm.

"To live. To outlast this nightmare. When the 30 months are over, this reality will collapse, and survivors will return with everything intact."

Lingquan added more information to the floating screen:

[At the end of the 30-month period, the zones will collapse. Survivors will be reintegrated seamlessly. Fatality rate estimated: 93%.]

The number hung over them like a death sentence.

Qingran stood up, her gaze locked on the others.

"It’s going to be brutal, but if we stick together, we can reduce that number. We can survive."

Feng Yuxi’s eyes narrowed. "Some of us?" Qingran’s expression was grim.

"I’ll fight to keep us alive. You should too."

Bai Shiyue’s voice was barely audible, her hand cradling her belly.

"I don’t want to die here... not with a baby inside me."

Qingran’s promise was quiet but resolute.

"You won’t. Not while I’m here."

A sudden flash lit up the blood-red sky, followed by a distant rumble that made the glass tremble. Something massive had crashed down in the city, a reminder of the world they now inhabited.

[Ding! Incoming package from Yizhou and a message as well. Would you like to accept or decline.]

".."

"Hell yeah of course I accept."

[Ding! You’ve received a huge haul of clothing from Feng Yizhou, all ranging from S to XL. Would you like to listen to the message now?]

"Yes."

[Playing. Qingran are you okay? I’m guessing Lingquan must have told you about the zones? I’m currently in Jindao, Haoyu and the others are with me. Tell me where you are when you receive this message, I love you and stay safe.]

Qingran clenched her fists, why did he sound so tired.

[You received a total of 7,500 pieces. Here’s the breakdown.]

[Tops: 2,500 pieces (1,000 t-shirts, 500 long-sleeved shirts, 500 sweaters, 500 thermal tops)

- Bottoms: 2,500 pieces (1,000 jeans, 500 pants, 500 shorts, 500 sweatpants)

- Underwear: 1,500 pieces (various styles and sizes)

- Outerwear: 500 pieces (jackets, coats)

- Footwear: 500 pieces (shoes, boots]

"..."

"That’s a lot.."

Qingran stood up and walked to the kitchen, she leaned against the counter, sighing softly.

"I’m going to send my message now."

[Alright. Ill begin recording.]

Qingran took a deep breath and nodded "Yizhou, I’m safe, I’m currently in Moonsai, so far I haven’t seen any survivors apart myself and the others. I’ll go out tomorrow to hoarde more supplies. Take care of yourself and the others. The apocalypse is 30 months, if you can survive that, I’ll marry you when it’s all over.]

["..."]

[Are you really going to send that? From what I remembered, you don’t seem to like Feng Yizhou.]

"..."

"He has grown on me and I don’t think I can’t accept a reality where he’s not in it."

[".."]

[Very well. I’m sending your message to Caocao. Unfortunately you won’t be able to send another message for a while. I’ll tell you once that portal opens again.]

"Thank you."

She reached into the space and brought clothes for everyone. Handing it to them, she told them to take a shower while the water was still running and clean and that she would start prepping dinner.

"What are you going to make?"

Bai Shiyue asked, she didn’t know how much food was in this suite.

"Don’t worry about that, just go get yourself cleaned."
