Rewriting My Fate in the Apocalypse-Chapter 45: Ability Awakened

Leng Pan felt her heart hammer loudly in her chest, and her breathing came in short gasps. Eyes widened so much that one would think they were about to pop out of their sockets.

What she was witnessing was not a magic trick that only created an illusion, but a real situation.

She had never thought her imagination could be so powerful. Just imagining her face covered in sparkling water droplets, and the next second, they appear. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com

This was more real than a magic trick. She stood there with a stupefied expression before coming back to her senses.

Leng Pan in the book had awakened a water ability, which had made her a valuable member of their small team. It was written that she had cultivated her ability to the point that she could fill a five-thousand water tank per day without straining.

In the beginning, she was struggling to fill a five-hundred-milliliter bottle, but with diligence and hard work, she had become extremely powerful.

She could turn her water ability into a long and sharp sword that decapitated zombies without hesitation. She could also turn water into a shield to protect herself and others, as well as turn it into sharp, ninja-like weapons.

It could be said that, if Leng Pan hadn’t trusted the wrong friend, she would have survived longer in the apocalypse. She was not killed by zombies because she couldn’t protect herself, but because she had lost hope and was in despair.

The very friend she trusted more than anyone else, the person she had worked hard to protect, and even went as far as rejecting the man she loved because her friend had a crush on him, had betrayed her.

It was more than she could bear, especially since that man had already given his life to protect hers. She saw no use in continuing to live anymore.

What was she going to live for? She didn’t even have the desire to take revenge. Thus, she let herself be torn to pieces by zombies and become their meal as if she didn’t feel any pain. In fact, the physical pain had been too insignificant compared to the pain in her heart.

She felt as if someone had used a knife to stab her in the heart, opened up her chest, and cut the heart into little pieces slowly.

This was not a kind of pain anyone could bear. Especially when she remembered the man who had followed behind her and protected her regardless of whether she appreciated it or not.

She found herself to be not only pitiful but also incredibly stupid.

Leng Pan thought that the previous soul of the other Leng Pan in the book yielded to her and dissipated because it couldn’t take the blow. She believed that just like Bai Yinyin, she must have been reborn with her memories intact.

Without the courage to continue living, she had probably done something to summon her soul into this world. Leng Pan didn’t believe for a moment that criticizing a character in a book could get her transmigrated into the said book.

Her words didn’t have that much power. Thus, something else had to be in play. She just wondered how a book world, a fragment of the author’s imagination, could become real with the people being also real human beings who could breathe and bleed.

She had also wondered if she had some kind of connection with the Leng Pan of this world. Otherwise, how did they happen to have the same name, the same face, the same body proportions, and even the same blood type?

Her soul had fit perfectly with this body as soon as she transmigrated. She might know nothing about metaphysics, but she knew that was definitely not normal.

However, all that was not important. The most important thing now was that she had awakened her water superpower. She was itching to test how powerful she was compared to her previous life.

In her previous life, even filling a half-liter water bottle had been a problem at the beginning, but now, she wanted to test her limit.

Thinking of this, she looked around the bathroom but didn’t find a bottle she could use. However, there was a small basin under the toiletry shelf. She took it and estimated that it could be filled with two liters of water.

Since the book said that on the first few days after gaining her superpower, she could only produce half a liter of water, she reckoned that the small basin was enough.

Thus, she imagined her palm acting like a tap with water flowing from it. The next second, water started to trickle from her palm.

She still found it fascinating that all she had to do to get water was to think about it, and it appeared.

She wondered if Lu Zhen had also awakened his mutated fire ability. He was described as the most powerful superpower user in the book.

She hoped that her transmigration hadn’t changed that.

After waiting for a full five minutes, the palm of Leng Pan’s hand finally ran dry. The small basin wasn’t full, but it sure didn’t contain only half a liter of water. It was almost full, meaning that there was at least one and a half liters of water in it.

Even though she had thought that after taking the spiritual spring water and clearing impurities from the body, she would have an advantage when awakening, she had not expected such a big advantage.

After all, it took Leng Pan in the book two weeks to fill a liter of water. The slow progress was partly because she didn’t know what to do, as superpower users were just emerging, and no one knew what to do, and partly because her talent was limited.

But even with such limits, she had still become very powerful. Leng Pan wanted to see how far she could go in this life.

She looked at the water with some regret because she wanted to taste how the water she created tasted, but she couldn’t possibly drink from a basin in the bathroom, could she?

Also, she could feel that producing water had tired her out, and she needed to rest for a while.

Hence, she used the water to clean herself up and went back to bed to rest. She had seen that in the book, zombie crystal cores could help recover faster, but there were no zombies, let alone crystal cores. So, she could only recover the old-fashioned way.
