Rewriting My Fate in the Apocalypse

That night, chaos ensued in the military base while the most senior personnel were missing.

Commander Qui had received news from the researchers that the drug administration to the superpower users was starting to show results. However, they still needed to keep doing research in order to find a way to separate the superpower from the person.

Only in this way could they extract it and implant it on someone else.

Yes, these researchers were perverse and the people supporting them even more so. It was a pity that even the top leadership in the country condoned something so immoral.

The people they were targeting were citizens of the country they vowed to protect. And now they were finding ways to strip those same citizens of the little ability they gained to protect themselves in a world in the middle of collapse.

And the driving force behind all this was the human greed for power. All those leaders supporting something so inhumane were people who wanted to take this technology and harvest superpowers from normal citizens and give them to their own people so that they could expand their power and influence.

People like the president liked to smile and say that they were just providing support for research that will help in combating zombies.

But actually, they were well aware of everything Commander Qui was up to and just closed his eyes. As long as he got a shred of the results, he didn't care much.

Too bad the citizens trusted him so much because of his kind-looking face and smooth tongue and voted for him.

It would be a pity if they found out that the same person they thought was kind-hearted was the one preying on them.

However, this was why people like Vanish existed. He will lay low and pull the rag right under someone's feet.

At this moment, he planned to pull the rag under Commander Qui and the president's feet. Of course, he had not yet found that the president was involved, but he knew about the commander.

Commander Qui was a proud man who never thought that he could lose anything that had fallen into his hands. That meant people were included.

As such, he wasn't shy about visiting the lab and talking to the researchers about their progress with the experiments. Because he thought that the people there could never escape his grasp, he had no qualms about revealing himself.

Vanish still remembered the first time the commander had shown up in the underground laboratory.

He had come in wearing military uniform and those opulents on his shoulder decorating his rank.

He walked with a dense air of righteousness such that when most of the captives there saw him, they thought he was their saviour and had come to save them from their suffering.

However, they were gobsmacked when they saw him discussing with the researchers about their progress and even asking if they needed him to provide more test subjects.

It was a huge blow to people who always had faith in the men in uniform. Vanish wasn't as disappointed because in his line of work, he had learnt not to trust people's appearance.

Therefore, the fact that a commander of the military was involved in kidnapping and human experiments didn't shake him very much.

As Vanish was still meditating to ensure that he stayed in peak condition, the beaded string on his wrist vibrated.

This was a string he was wearing when he was captured. His kidnappers took everything else from him that they deemed dangerous and capable of communicating.

What they didn't expect was that the string of beads they left on his wrist was something high-tech he used to communicate with Ouyang Jin.

Those beads weren't normal beads but something made of nano materials. A couple of the beads had chips inside that could be used to transmit sound and could vibrate.

It vibrated according to the sound received and Ouyang Jin usually used Morse code to communicate.

So, each vibration was a message. Like at that moment, Su Yan had just sent a message telling him to get ready to leave.

Within two minutes, he could hear chaos from above ground and it looked like something big had happened in the base.

He didn't know what method his companions had used to create a diversion, but he knew that they were ready to leave.

Just as this thought crossed his mind, the string on his wrist vibrated again. This time the message was telling him to start moving.

Without wasting a single moment, he freed himself from the chains tying him and stood up to walk to a table nearby. The other captives watched his every move, praying in their hearts that he would not abandon them.

They had already realized earlier that he was planning to escape even though they didn't know when and had been trying their best to improve their strength.

Since all of them were superpower users, they were stronger than normal people by quite a bit. That's why even though they had been locked up for a while, they were still able to move freely quickly after gaining their freedom.

Vanish took the keys on the table and freed the man with a speed-type superpower first. He then gave him the remaining keys and asked him to free the others.

He walked over to another table that held the computers that had the data of the experiments and produced a flash drive out of nowhere.

Well, he had his ways to hide something like that. He quickly copied all the data from the computers into the flash drive.

Luckily, Commander Qui had provided the researchers with quite advanced machines so the copying was faster than expected.

By the time the speed-type superpower guy was done freeing the others , Vanish was done.

They then destroyed everything in the lab and walked to what looked like a cabinet on the other side. When he opened it, he found that it was a freezer of some kind. The funny thing was ,it didn't make a sound.
