24th December 2025, the day before the apocalypse.

Now, Chen Qiang was at the inside of a warehouse. He felt pleased when looking all over this place. In this warehouse, that full of weapons, boxes of ammunition and lots of military tools.

On his left side, there were neat rows of shelves full of coldly glittering firearms.

From small arms like handguns and long guns; such as pistols, shotguns, sniper rifles, assault rifles, submachine guns, anti-material rifles, and light machine guns.

To the bigger scale like medium machine guns and general-purpose machine guns.

Their numbers were so numerous, which would even make him dizzy if he wanted to count all of these personally.

Then he looked at his right side, there were also neat rows of shelves like on his left side, only this time those were full of cold weapons instead.

There were so many kinds of it, like the general-purpose knife, combat knife, throwing knife, dagger, ax, spear, saber, sword, etc.

Half of these weapons were created with his request to several reputable workshops to meet his criteria since three years ago, while the other half, he masses bought the fine weapons available out there from many sources.

There were quite distinct between the weapons which were created with his request, and which didn't. If the latter looked fine-quality and gorgeous, the first was ordinary, yet at the same time also unordinary.

Ordinary because it looked like average-quality where you can buy at a very cheap price anywhere. It so contrasts with the later that have the mirror-like appearance which reflects how best the technique and process was when it was created.

As for why it was also unordinary, that is because of its abnormal shape. It's very far from the standard or an actual shape and size.

'we are ready, huh.'

Inside, he felt proud of himself when looked all of this.

He then took one of the personalized weapons. It was a Chinese saber called Dao.

However, its size made it looked like a greatsword instead. Not only it was longer, but it was also wider. If not because the curve at the upper end which made it resembled the actual shape of Dao, no one would think this big thing was a saber. Because not even one saber in the world has a wide blade resembling a greatsword, not to mention how long it was.

An actual saber would always be thin and short in diameter to fulfill its purpose, the speed. So just seeing how big it was, it was clear that this saber had lost its function.

This seems waste-thing could not even become an ornament because of its unappealing appearance.

Yet despite all of this, he held it like it was a treasure. Caressing it with a smile on his face.

Da Hongli, who was in his back didn't even bother to ask why he looked happier seeing the unusual sword which even hard to swing rather than the firearm as he is now in great concern.


"Chen Qiang, isn't this too risky?"

In the end, he still couldn't stop himself from asking.

Chen Qiang answered again, with the same answer many times.

"No, It's not."

"Just relax uncle. It won't arouse even the slightest trouble. Just wait, all of what I did will make sense soon. Now, how with the cars?"

5 days ago Chen Qiang ordered Da Hongli to move and gathered all the weapons from its hideout to the warehouse in here and moreover, they should also arm the cars.

Although Da Hongli himself knew this would happen, times when he has to take the weapons. However, he still has some worry regarding this.

After all, with these many weapons they had collected for almost three years, it would be difficult to avoid once they get tracked as it would be very hard to discard all of these.

Although this city was in a scary population and even barely has police post around. It still makes him worry as he didn't know until when Chen Qiang placed all of these weapons in this risky manner.

As for the disaster that will soon happen... Bulshit, he didn't believe it at all. He is still not that irrational to believe any nonsense things. Moreover, back then Chen Qiang himself used this to attract his friend.

Anyway, he didn't care about this nonsense matter, the same with his friends.

He was only doing all of this because of his deceased father. If not, he would already leave this youngster who he regarded as niece on his own delusion.

Da Hongli could only sigh after he heard what Chen Qiang said. He then answered, "We have just completed five of it."

"It's enough for now." Then he continued, "Also, please don't forget about what I said."

Da Hongli nodded and said, "Alright, I won't."

What he had said was to make all of them including their family to exercise for today and tomorrow. No one could be absent from it. Of course, their family members will have normal exercise.

Especially tomorrow. From 5 a.m. before dawn, they should start exercising until 7.30 and afterward immediately gather at the main hall.

Chen Qiang continued appreciating his weaponry for some time before he walked out.

...

On the outside, snow was endlessly falling down from the sky, covering anything below it. Chen Qiang was walking under it with a thick coat enveloping his body.

Even since the winter three years ago, It's become more and more colder every time. Although now it's just started, the temperature seems at the peak already.

Also when on a clear day, the sun seems always covered by thin clouds as its rays become slightly dim, not as bright as usual.

Maybe, it was the reason why the temperature became this low.

Of course, he knew it. As in his memory, this winter was the start of his painful life.

The season when he has lost his little sister. The beginning when he had to struggle to stay alive. Also, for the first time in his life, he felt the unbearable cold and hunger. There were many more things that he couldn't forget.

He walked for some times before arrived at the destination, a very big building in front of him. He then came inside and passed the metal doors that were so big and thick.

There is a big hall after he came inside, its roof was so high and beautiful, its tiles were so shiny and captivating, and the surroundings were so grand with its beautiful decoration.

He continues walking to the upstairs, to the first floor. Again, he had to pass through the thick metal door, albeit smaller.

This floor is also same like the ground floor, its vastness, its grandeur, and its elegance. However as this floor was only used for a living, it was cleary this floor was more comfortable than flashy.

He saw some peoples in there. Then just as he wanted to join them, Xiao Er and Xiao Wu spotted him first and immediately rushed toward him.

He smiled and rubbed their head who had arrived in no time. Like always, they both let out cute purrs as a result.

Chen Xi also realized him there when she saw her pet rushing to him. With a smile, she walked toward him.

"Take off the coat first, brother."

In front of him, she said, still with a faint smile on her face.

"Alright."

He takes off his coat and hangs it on the pole.

"Here."

She offered him the glass she held, a glass of warm chocolate. Though, it's only remaining half.

"Thank you."

Although his body felt cold, his heart felt the warmth. He accepted it and immediately started drinking it.

"Your welcome."

She cheerfully answered. Then they both walked together. There are Chen Qing, Zhang Kai, Zhang Mu, Bai Mei, and Lan Yue who seem to enjoy their tea time. They are currently living on this floor except for his sisters.

There also Zhang Ping, Da Hongli, Li Hua, Li Wei, Ling Tian and his mother Cai Zi, Fei Rong, Zhao Qiang, Chu Feng, Chang Wu, and his family; His 35 years old wife Huang Si and the ten years old boy Chang Zai.

Yet, despite these many peoples who live on this floor, there is still some room available.

As for him and his sister, they were living on the floor 3. While the rest are living on the ground floor.

Chen Qiang sat at the couch near his other sister, Chen Qing. Followed by Chen Xi who sat on his other side.

"How was it in here, brother Mu?"

He asked Zhang Mu who was sitting comfortably near a beautiful woman, Bai Mei.

"It's great. You really know how to enjoy life huh."

He was truly feeling that even from the moment he came here 3 days ago. The facility, scenery, and atmosphere could never make him tired.

He could also go for a trip anytime he wants with Bai Mei to many great places nearby.

All of this made their mood stay high, especially when they were together in the super luxurious bedroom... Ehem, totally wonderful days.

"I'm glad then."

With a smile, he nodded knowingly. For records, Zhang Mu and Bai Mei had become husband and wife not long before Aunt Lan Shuang passed away.

"Thanks to this, I seem will get a grandchild soon."

Zhang Kai suddenly chimed in with a playful tone. This made Zhang Mu, who was in a comfortable position, felt awkward. He then secretly looked at Bai Mei on his side, her face now flushed red like a tomato.

Blended with her mature looks, it made her looked more charming, which caused Zhang Mu's eyes to keep glued on her.

No matter how many times he saw it, his heart would always throb.

'How fortunate I am to have her as mine, my wife.'

He felt proud of himself for making such a woman fall for him.

Chen Qiang felt happy when looked at them. He didn't know if they could also be like this when knowing their worlds is no longer the same and became terrifying.

He also looked at his sides, to his sisters. They now have a faint smile on their face while looking at them. He then gently embraced them both. It really makes him feel satisfied.

'No matter what will happen in this world, life will always continue. I don't care if this world will be filled with anguish, tinged with blood, or even full of destruction. As long as I have them, everything else didn't matter.'

Subconsciously, his grip on his sisters tightened which made their body attached to him.

Chen Qing realized it from the moment her brother's arm tightened on her waist. She then looked at him.

He seemed deep in thought. His handsome face had a solemn expression as he was thinking about some serious things.

Recently, he is more often doing this. It's like he had a concern about something. Probably he was now feeling anxious about the disaster he had said.

Though no one has talked about it again. Even from the start, nobody treated it seriously. She didn't even expect it to happen.

Maybe there really will be some disaster as she knows her rationalist brother would never do something as crazy as these without certain reason. Like Influenza outbreak for example or even Ebola, Marburg, or something like that. However, even if that did happen. She is certain that the government could take fast measure on it.

So for her, what has her brother did, and what will happen didn't important.

Money, admiration, luxury, fancy dresses, high-end cars, bags, shoes, and jewelry didn't have any special meaning for her.

The most important thing for her is her brother himself. She was glad they could have more time together. With him, who treated them with love.

Though the training could become hellish as well, it was not like they couldn't do it. She even loved it now as it could keep her interested.

She would always feel calm when she holds a weapon. All of her focus would only go toward it when she held one. As that was one of the requirements she had to pass her brother training. She remembered how she loved it when her senses became clear and sharp.

She now feels that she is fully enjoying her life. So far compared to her life before this. She didn't have worries about anything, just do what she wants to.

As for her social life, she didn't even have many friends to begin with. She was tired of always keeping the facade every time she interacted with them.

Love life? She was sickened by the sight of those peoples who after her with another purpose.

She has long not felt that she is truly enjoying life from the moment their parents passed away. Only loneliness and emptiness accompany her.

So living like this was actually her dream.

She slowly placed her head on his broad shoulder, savoring this moment. The same with Chen Xi who already leaned her whole body on him with a faint smile visible on her face.
