《System And Rebirth: Leveling Up In The Apocalypse!》Chapter 23:『 2nd Blood Rain 』

The four can be seen walking back to the villa. On the way, Qian Xie and Yi explained what had happened to Chen Jian. The latter was also soaked with blood rain when he approached so Qian Xie suspected that he gained abilites.
And as expected, Chen Jian had one; toxigenesis. He can create or emit poison substances that can inflict a heavy blow to the victim.
The villa was on sight but a sudden warning from the System made Qian Xie stop. The three also paused and questioningly looked at her.
"Mistress, please take shelter. There will be a 2nd blood rain where whoever will get wet with it will turn into a zombie."
Rong Qian Xie's face showed a serious expression that made everybody tense. "Quick, run! Get inside the villa!" Unexpectedly, her hand moved on its own and grabbed Tian Ming Jue's just beside her.
Ming Jue on the side, although feeling blissful, was worried about his fiancé. "What's wrong?" His hand grasped Qian Xie's instead, letting the latter feel somewhat secured.
Chen Jian ran just beside Qian Xie. He was also worried because of his friend's serious expression just earlier. But before he could even attempt to question her, he instead ran away from the two after noticing Ming Jue's cold stare.
Although Chen Jian himself admits that he has feelings for Ming Jue's fiancé, can he even put up a fight with him(TMJ)? He wasn't trying to break them apart or what! Hmph!
「 System prompt: 2nd Blood Rain will commence in 20. . . 19. . . 」
Your mother! This blood rain is so impatient! They were still a long way before they could be safe. Don't talk about getting inside the villa, they can't even get inside the electric fences that Qian Xie made.

"Everyone, stand by!" Qian Xie shouted. The three stopped. "Surround me!" Although the men were confused, they won't believe that the lady in front of them was kidding with a serious face.
Immediately after the four of them circled, roots from below the soil started to emerge and thicken into wood. It then spiraled around them while intertwining in the process, making a solid wall of wood that was so flexible.
Heavy rain can be heard outside, and the wall that Qian Xie made was protecting them from getting wet.
"So cool. . ." Chen Jian whispered. He touched the wood made from Qian Xie's power and inspected it, as if it was a rare specie. So smooth!
Another sudden cry was heard from her System. "Mistress, I have an upda–"
「 Elemental Manipulation Skill Lv. 1 」
"Well. . . That was it. You can level up your skills now!"
Qian Xie hmm-ed. She was still worried that the blood rain would affect any of them right at this time. There are many what ifs inside her mind. What if the System hadn't reminded her about this 2nd Blood Rain?
They would then join the horde of zombies. She then couldn't exact her revenge. She will definitely not leave her so-called family alive and without torture.
"Mistress doesn't need to worry! You cannot be affected by the virus. The blood rain this time was from the blood of zombies. You are immune to them, remember?"
Qian Xie gritted her teeth, wanting to smack the head of this System. Unfortunately, it doesn't have a physical appearance. What about the people with her? Were they immune with zombie virus as well?
"I apologize for my dumbness, Mistress. This System wasn't thinking. Anyways, the 2nd Blood Rain is finished." It was definitely dumbness! Very good, her System can recognize its own mistakes.

Finally, Qian Xie removed the wooden wall that she made. The wooden branches then swirled and returned to their original sizes. They were then put right back under the soil.
"What was that all about, Xiexie?" Although still scared of Ming Jue, Chen Jian can't help but confront Qian Xie. He felt confused about why she did all that.
But before Qian Xie can even open her mouth, familiar voices was heard by the four.
"Jian'er, Yun Xie, Mr. Tian, where have you three been?"
"Yes, we were looking for you."
"Help me, Jiange! Ugh, this red liquid makes me want to puke! So smelly!"

This fiction contains: * Approx. 4,342,213 video game tropes, mechanics and cliches * Very light levelling and business development (but no tables.

For decades now, strange places inhabited with monsters have been appearing across the globe. People call them dungeons and those who enter them delvers. For years, delvers explored and conquered, becoming beacons of hope—idols in a world wracked by war. Nowadays, thousands of youths each year undergo the Awakening ritual, foregoing their mundane life in favor of a more magical one. Marco is one such youth. He has a cushy life and a good family that wishes only what is best for him. He isn’t satisfied, however—he wants more. What exactly, he doesn’t know. He only knows that inside the confines of what is considered normal, he won’t find it. I update twice a week, on Tuesday and on Saturday. P.s.
