Upgradable Space: Reborn to Survive the Apocalypse
That meant the man was definitely stronger than the woman. And Caroline still didn't know what ability he had. But she suddenly had an idea. "Take her alive!" The man shouted to the woman beside him. Right after that, both of them rushed toward Caroline. The woman pulled out a heavy metal glove and shoved it onto her hand. She ran while slamming her fists together like she was warming up for a fight. Caroline's eye twitched when she saw that man. His ability was lightning. Not as strong as Kay's, but still dangerous. Lightning flickered from all 10 fingers as he ran. If he touched her once, she'd drop. Caroline opened her system. Ever since she got it, the first thing she did every morning was check what random ability she got for the day. At first, she had been disappointed by today's ability. But now, as the two lunged at her, Caroline smiled and shouted, "I'm your mom!" In an instant, the two who had been charging at her froze. Then, they plopped down and grabbed her legs. "Mom." "Mommy!" The two grown adults stared at her with teary eyes, calling her "Mom" like lost children. Special Ability: I'm Your Mom Note: To activate this ability, the user must shout, "I'm your mom!" The louder the shout, the wider the range. Anyone who hears it and looks at the user will instantly believe she's their mother and show absolute respect. Besides the embarrassment, this ability is very useful. Limitation: Once activated, the user cannot kill the targets. No matter how troublesome a child is, a mom won't kill her kids, right? Caroline, are you ready to meet your children?Available Uses: X5. So yes, the words she shouted weren't an insult. She truly became their mother. The ability looked strong, but it had one huge weakness. She couldn't finish off the enemy afterward. Caroline had listened to the pair earlier, just long enough to know they were supposed to capture her alive. If she guessed right, they were hired hands with no intent to kill. Perfect for using her ability on them. Caroline smiled as she faced the pair. They were now sitting on the ground, staring at her like she was their entire world. She spoke gently, almost sweetly, "Well then, my children, who sent you to kidnap me? Tell me everything. If you don't ... " She smiled brighter. "Mom is going to punish you." The two of them rushed to speak, tripping over each other as they confessed everything they knew about the plan. ... Ten minutes later, Caroline grabbed another vehicle from her storage space, hopped in, and drove away without looking back. As for those two, they were left standing there, heads down, covering their eyes, turned around, and facing the wall. It was the punishment from their mother. This was the last command she gave before removing the ability. Stand here for five hours. After all, that crash they caused wasn't light. Now, whatever happened to them next, that was their fate. Caroline had driven off. But after a few miles, she sensed someone was tailing her again. Thanks to the two, she already knew who the mastermind was and what they wanted. Honestly, she was just an unlucky bystander dragged into someone else's fight. But now? After being provoked again and again? Caroline's patience snapped. Seriously? They're still coming after me?! Enough already!Caroline didn't return to the shelter. Instead, she turned her car into an alley. This street wasn't a main road, so the government hadn't cleaned it out. The alley was full of dirt, trash, and several mutated creatures. But Caroline's off-road vehicle was a high-performance model she bought before the apocalypse. She also kept the windows sealed tight, so she wasn't worried. The people chasing her weren't so lucky. They were riding mutant cats. When Caroline's car had gone only a few hundred feet, the group reached the mouth of the alley. "Meow!" The moment one cat stepped forward, it puffed up in horror. Its soft paw had landed on a wriggling maggot. The riders quickly tried to calm their cats. "Let's try a different road. This alley is too nasty," one woman said. They had no choice but to turn around. They knew the area well, so they quickly found another path they believed would help them catch up. But the moment they rounded the corner, thinking they'd outsmarted her, Caroline was already there, waiting in ambush.
