I Spread my Genes to Level Up in the Apocalypse

"Pill?" Ray looked at the pill in front of him while giving a strange look to Vanessa.

Vanessa had an awkward expression on her face.

"Don't look at me, it is my first time that I have used my ability."

"Not even to that King?" Ray asked with an amused expression.

"Yeah," Vanessa nodded, "they raided my house and seeing the gun in their hand, I could only obediently obey otherwise…"

Ray nodded his head.

To normal people, a simple firearm was enough to contain them, no matter if they knew self-defense or not.

Defending against a gun was simply not humanly possible.

Even Ray would have died if not for his third advancement in his body strengthening skill, which he got, making his physique five times stronger.

Then, when he spread his gene, it was six times stronger than an ordinary adult male.

"I wonder what I will get in my fourth advancement and for the necromancer skill as well, what will I get in my third advancement?" Ray muses to himself. However, to truly reach that level, he was still very far off.

He hadn't even fully explored the potential of the second advancement of the Necromancer skill, not to mention getting ahead. Killing undead was not a simple thing, especially gaining mutation energy.

If he fought directly, then he would need to risk his life. If he fought with his summon, then he needed to do a large amount of massacre.

"Unless I can find a level 2 undead." Ray shuddered when he thought about it.

Level one undead were already difficult; if the trajectory of the undead also went like that of the awakener, then their power wouldn't be simple.

Even his body strengthening skill, which was of E-class, could make his strength terrifying just because of the third advancement.

Vanessa awkwardly coughed with an embarrassed expression.

"Hmm?" Ray's gaze fell on her, "what's the matter?"

"Can I eat the pill?" Vanessa said tentatively.

"Why do you want to eat the pill, is there something that you are not telling me about?" Ray's eyes squinted with a dangerous light.

"It… it's because I feel like it is calling me."

"Calling you?" Ray frowned while looking at the trance-like state of Vanessa.

"Sure, go ahead then."

The moment he said so, Vanessa pounced at the pill like a dog.

Her tongue came out, and she was panting like a dog.

In one gulp, she swallowed the entire pill.

Silence!

There was a movement of silence, complete silence with nothing happening to Vanessa.

Ray was quite confused for a moment, even after ten minutes had gone by with the long waiting, nothing happened.

"Hmm?"

When he was about to say some words, suddenly some changes happened to Vanessa.

The dark circles that were under her eyes vanished in just moments.

Her skin, which almost clung to her bones because of not eating for a long time, seemed to become lively again.

Her cheeks puffed, and a natural healthy colour appeared in her pale skin.

She looked like an average healthy person now, completely different from her previous depleted state.

"I recovered." Vanessa raised her hand with a smile on her face, jumping with excitement.

Ray let Vanessa cheer up for a moment, he was not a monster; how could he let such a cute girl not have her happiness back.

"Are you alright now?" he asked with a smile.

"Yes."

Vanessa nodded calmly, she seemed to have regained her confidence.

When her gaze fell on Ray, it seemed to burn with passion.

Ray was a little stunned when he felt the passionate gaze of this little girl.

"Cough, cough."

"Oh." Vanessa blushed.

For a moment, there was an awkward silence.

"So what did the pill do?" Ray asked now.

"The pill I made seemed to provide me with all the nutrients my body needs. Actually, I have been bound by these guys so I didn't dare to use my abilities."

"Good choice." Ray said with a shrug.

If she really showed her ability, then her fate would be even worse, and maybe even used to the point of exhaustion and discarded after.

Considering King's temperament, Ray knew that this was a likely probability.

"Can this pill be consumed by others?" Ray asked.

"Yes." Vanessa nodded her head.

"Good, then you and Evelyn can follow me as for the others…" Ray's eyes darted around.

He had given them hope, so if they wanted to live, then they should be given a chance to live, either way, and this Vanessa's ability came in at the right time as well.

"Do you guys wanna live?"

"Yes." Most of the girl's echoed in unison while their gaze was nervous.

"Remember the world has already changed, nothing like the previous world. If you wanna live through this time, then you must work." Ray sternly reprimanded.

"Nothing is free in this world, and nothing would be free."

Ray looked at the woman and said lightly, "follow me."

"Yes," Vanessa giggled. "You have to take care of me in the future, brother Ray."

"I will as long as you do your duty," then he looked at Evelyn, "what about you?"

"I… I will also follow you."

"Good," Ray walked forward, and Vanessa followed behind. Evelyn also walked sideways with Vanessa, with gritted teeth.

Actually, Evelyn already has trauma with men already. She wanted to stay far away as possible from men, with horrible things that she has seen.

However, the drive to live was greater than her trauma, and she wanted to live. Although she could control metal, she knew that killing undead was not a simple thing, and even though she has power, she could still die.

So her best possibility was to follow a group, and Ray seemed to be strong enough.

Besides, she has seen the ability of this girl Vanessa. She has already followed Ray; how could she be left behind? Where would she get even the food to live then?

Thinking of all this, Evelyn could only follow Ray.

As for the other girls, some of them followed Ray, and some stayed behind. But seeing others leave, they followed him as well.
