Chapter 11: The World After Reform! Tang Tian's Ambition!

  That night, all living humans on the entire planet received that hint of a voice, and finally, without exception, they all fell into a coma...

  When all people fell into a coma, black gas from unknown sources flooded the entire earth.

  These gases entered the water, changing its properties, entering plants, altering their genetic structure, starting to grow wildly..., entering the bodies of animals, altering their genes as well, beginning to transform...

  In short, under the shroud of this dark energy, everything in the world except humans has changed...

  As time passed, the dark haze that shrouded the globe gradually merged into the entire earth, fading, fading, and finally disappearing completely...

  After the five-hour countdown ended, the entire world had completely changed and became unrecognizable. If someone were to observe the Earth from space, they would hardly recognize it as the same planet just five hours ago...

  After five hours passed, people all over the world were awakened again by the voice in their minds.

  "Foolish humans, the Earth where you reside has been thoroughly transformed by me. I said it before, you have always complained about the unfairness of heaven, so I will give you a fair environment. When you find that the guns and artillery in your hands are not as useful as a burning firewood, when you discover that all electronic devices have lost their function, when you find that everything has returned to the primitive dark ages, I look forward to seeing your desperate struggles. Hahaha, foolish humans, use your despair to amuse me..."

  Tang Tian also woke up in the prompt in his mind, but he found that at this time he was in a completely dark environment. He felt it and was still in the original package, but the originally lit lamp didn't know when it had stopped emitting light.

  It was still dark outside, and it was clear that the sky had not yet brightened. Tang Tian did not dare to go out rashly, and he didn't know how long he had been unconscious for. All Tang Tian could do was take out his phone to check the time, but when he took out his phone, he found that it wouldn't turn on either. However, there wasn't even a slight bit of damage to the phone.

  "Could it be...", Tang Tian suddenly remembered the last hint in his mind. "All electronic devices have lost their original function, could it be like this?" Tang Tian muttered to himself.

  He immediately pulled out an old mechanical watch from his pocket, the kind that winds up with a spring and doesn't use batteries. This was still given to him by the old master when he was in the orphanage, and after so many years, he hadn't set it aside. Under the faint light, Tang Tian suddenly realized that it was now around 5 o'clock in the morning.

  Tang Tian concentrated his mind and sensed that the outside world had become even more quiet and still.

  Helpless, Tang Tian had no choice but to wait, waiting for dawn to go out and take a look at what the world had become after such a long time.

  As time ticked away, when the mechanical watch pointed to six thirty, Tang Tian pushed open the door of the private room and walked out.

  When Tang Tian walked out, he found that the doors of several other private rooms also opened one after another, as if they were all waiting for him. A group of more than a dozen people quickly gathered around Tang Tian.

  Tang Tian found that all of these people had fearful expressions on their faces, but not a single one of them opened their mouths to speak.

  Ignoring them, Tang Tian began to observe the surroundings of the cafeteria. The hall was not much different from yesterday, only a bit darker than usual at this time.

  Slowly, he arrived at the window of the cafeteria and looked out at the campus. When he saw the scene inside the campus, even though Tang Tian had mentally prepared himself, he was still shocked by what he saw, his expression more vivid than when he first saw the tens of thousands of zombies!

  The campus is now completely covered with weeds, all of which are over one meter high and grew overnight from various places. The stone seams, the bricks below, wherever it can grow, are all such dense weeds. In addition, those trees in the school that were originally ornamental and several meters high, also grew wildly overnight, some reaching tens or even hundreds of meters high, with vines hanging from them. The entire campus seems to have turned into an ancient ruin in a primitive forest overnight!

  "What's going on?" Tang Tian Rang was mentally firm, but the scene in front of him made his brain spin, and he could only ask others around him blankly.

  "At this time, Zhang Ling stood out and said: 'We don't know either, we just heard the prompt in our minds and came out to take a look, only to find that the whole school has become like this. And you see this...'"

  Zhang Ling took out a black handgun from his waist and fired a shot at Tang Tian.

  As Zhang Ling pulled out the gun, Tang Tian subconsciously dodged to the side, but after Zhang Ling fired the shot, Tang Tian's face was filled with shock and confusion, completely stunned by what he saw.

  No matter what kind of firearm, in the eyes of the people, it is a terrifying thing. But at this time, is the gun in Zhang Ling's hand still a gun? The sound made by pulling the trigger was not much louder than the sound of a bubble bursting, and the bullet shot out like a rooster taking a shit, falling powerlessly to the ground as soon as it left the barrel...

  "What's going on?" Tang Tian asked stupidly.

  Zhang Ling's face was filled with a bitter smile. He had originally thought that with the gun in his hand, he would have some survival ability in this post-apocalyptic world, so at first, he didn't pay much attention to Tang Tian. How could anyone be more powerful than a handgun? However, when that prompt sounded in his mind, he took out the gun and tried it out, resulting in this outcome, and he instantly felt despair.

  "You'll see for yourself," Zhang Ling said, tossing the pistol to Tang Tian.

  Tang Tian picked up the pistol thrown by Zhang Ling, and then he received a prompt in his mind.

  "The lowest level of firearms, because you are not a firearms profession, so can't use it, in your hands it's no different from a piece of scrap iron, and not as good as a fire poker."

  After getting the hint, Tang Tian was suddenly stunned and tried to fire a shot, with the same effect as when Zhang Ling had it.

  Getting such a result, Tang Tian was speechless and threw the pistol back to Zhang Ling, muttering: "Is this what the world looks like after being completely remade by the Demon God? Even the most basic rules have changed".

  Zhang Ling caught the pistol and threw it away without even looking at it, just like throwing away trash. Such a pistol was completely useless in his hands. Then Zhang Ling seemed to have made up his mind, lowering his posture very low, and said to Tang Tian: "Tang Tian classmate, I want to survive, and currently only you have the ability to bring me along to survive, so I want to follow you, please accept me. Although I may not be able to charge into battle for you, but I think I still have the ability to handle some other things for you."

  Ugh~~Tang Tian was immediately stunned by Zhang Ling's words, what is this situation? Is the underworld recruiting younger brothers? However, as soon as he thought about it, he understood that Zhang Ling was also a clever person, knowing that the world had changed, and everything from before no longer existed. What money, status, all gone, and even the basic rules were changed. A person like him couldn't survive for long in this chaotic world, so it's better to attach himself to someone strong as soon as possible, maybe there's still hope to live on. And at this time, the best candidate was naturally Tang Tian. Otherwise, he might not even be able to leave this cafeteria.

  But whether he was loyal or not is unknown.

  In an instant, Tang Tian's mind became active. Can't that man achieve something? Doesn't that man have ambition in his heart? In the past, there was no way out, and he had to live a humble life, but now it's different. The world has changed, becoming survival of the fittest, and everyone starts from the same starting point. Why can't Tang Tian create a vast empire?

  The loss of firearms has rendered the army useless, and communication disruptions have paralyzed the entire world. It's time for capable people to rise up!

  At this thought, Tang Tian's eyes changed in an instant, and the desire and ambition in his heart grew endlessly. As a former orphan, he was used to struggling through hard days, and fighting and brawling were countless. It was false that he didn't have any ambition; who wouldn't want to live a life of luxury? But in the original world, it wasn't possible for someone like him to rise to the top. However, things were different now - this was the end of the world! Whoever had the biggest fist would be the boss!

  Thinking of this, Tang Tian's heart almost jumped out. This was his own opportunity. If he grasped it well, after becoming powerful, even establishing a country and ruling the entire earth wouldn't be a dream. However, the prerequisite was that he must become strong!

  Once a person's desire is awakened, it will be endless, and ambition will grow wildly.

  In an instant, these people found that Tang Tian was affected by Zhang Ling's words and changed instantly. A crazy and dangerous aura emanated from Tang Tian's body, accompanied by a faint aura of superiority.

  Looking at Zhang Ling, Tang Tian reined in the crazy thoughts in his heart and shivered all over, because he thought that in this world with so many people, it was impossible for only himself to have obtained power, there were too many people stronger than him, if he wanted to rule the whole world, the opportunity was as unrealistic as a fantasy.

  But since the desire has risen in his heart, how can it be suppressed? He's going to take a gamble. The world is already like this, and no matter how crazy things get, it won't make a difference. Tang Tian coldly said to Zhang Ling: "Alright, from now on, you're my first subordinate. I don't care if you're sincere or not, just don't let me find out that you've made any moves behind my back. If you do, I'll make sure you die without even knowing how... Xiaoying!"

  Originally expecting Tang Tian's response, Zhang Ling still had some delight and disdain in his heart. Being able to survive under Tang Tian's protection naturally made him happy, but he disdained the idea that Tang Tian could restrain himself in the future. How could an ordinary city dweller possibly contend with someone who grew up in a world of intrigue?

  However, when Tang Tian mentioned something about Xiao Ying, Zhang Ling's face was filled with astonishment, not knowing who Tang Tian was calling. But soon he knew, because at some unknown time, a gray dagger had silently appeared on his neck! The corner of his eye caught sight of someone standing behind him, shrouded in black robes.

  "Tang Lao Da, what's going on...?" Zhang Ling instinctively felt that this was Tang Tian Gan, but he had no idea how this person appeared, so he asked anxiously.

  Tang Tian said coldly, "Zhang Ling, I don't care what you do, it's best for you to honestly surrender to me. If not, you will silently and quietly die without anyone noticing. This is just one of the hidden methods I've shown you." After finishing speaking, Tang Tian waved his hand, and the ghostly assassin once again merged into the darkness without a sound, with no one detecting his presence.

  When Zhang Ling heard Tang Tian's words, he immediately retracted his own small thoughts and broke out in a cold sweat. He had never thought that Tang Tian still hid such methods, and no matter how unwilling he was, he could only deeply hide them away.
