Zhang Zhiyin made a prompt decision and opened the Item Store and purchased the ice ability he was most familiar with.

His body had a peal of numbness and limpness, and the grey mark on the wrist representing the precision ability gradually disappeared. A shallow, nearly grey, ice-blue sign emerged.

Zhang Zhiyin recalled the ability in the game. Unconsciously, a transparent ice ball encircled with faint fog appeared on his fingertips.

It’s small; grasping it in his palm would make it melt, a gentle tap at it might break it into pieces. Yet it would grow to be his greatest dependence in this strange world.

Sister Lan officially notified them of the decision to evacuate and counted the list of people willing to evacuate with them.

City M could not be said to big or small. There were three large safety zones for the survivors, such as Lihua Shopping Mall. There were seventeen or eighteen small ones and were in touch among themselves.

The evacuation was decided by the three large safety zones, and it would be divided into three batches, and the order of evacuation would be decided by lots. Lihua Shopping Mall was picked to be the last to evacuate. More than 10,000 people had decided to evacuate this time and there were 4,500 people who would be following Lihua Shopping Mall. It was not easy to organize and coordinate the work. However, Zhang Zhiyin did not need to worry about these.

Brother Fei and Uncle Yun gathered together the ability users and the backbones and assigned them tasks.

“Li Bo, Liu Yuan, and Zhang Zhiyin!” Brother Fei called, “All three of you are a precision ability user. You are responsible for the guard work in Group E No. 12, and each of you take one gun.”

Zhang Zhiyin followed the other two and took a gun. He weighed the heavy fellow he had never touched before and was in a dilemma.

He had no precision ability now. Should he try to fish his way through or talk to Brother Fei? How do you explain that your precision ability suddenly turned into an ice ability? In fact, at this point in time, everyone didn’t have a deep understanding of abilities mutation. He would be fine as long as he evade everything and said that he didn’t know anything. However, Zhang Zhiyin still felt this was trouble and there might be hidden dangers. As the result, after the meeting, glancing at Brother Fei, he had a desire to speak but ended up stopping several times, and finally watched Brother Fei leave helplessly.

At night, Zhang Zhiyin lay on the ground and felt apologetic. Group E No. 12 was the closest to the rear, they should be on the alert and held the responsibility in paying attention to the situation happening behind the convoy and give timely reminders in advance. Having three people was a good precaution. If one of them failed to do his duty, it might lead to danger.

Zhang Zhiyin didn’t want to implicate everyone because of him. He decided to go to Brother Fei early in the morning to confess.

But before that, he wanted to try.

Zhang Zhiyin looked at his remaining balance of more than 700 and bit his teeth. He wanted to buy a good weapon and some other equipment. According to his game experience, the second ability was actually a chicken rib, because the second ability he activated under normal circumstances was still the ordinary enhancement ability.

Three seconds later, a smaller mark appeared above the original one. It’s grey, same as the one he used to have.

Looking at the restoration of the clear and delicate vision of the precision ability, Zhang Zhiyin breathed a sigh of relief. For the first time, he felt that accuracy skills came so timely.
