Zhang Miaomiao looked at Su Ling, who nodded, "Yes, it's about the size of a standard football field."
After thinking for a moment, Zhang Miaomiao continued to describe her storage space to Su Ling, "This is all I can see. I don't know what it looks like outside. My space isn't a lush green field, but rather filled with yellow sand."
As if sensing Su Ling's unspoken question about how she discovered her awakened ability, Zhang Miaomiao explained, "I woke up and was about to get up to wash my face when my hand touched the medicine I had placed in the tent. I was groggy and just wished it would disappear."
Swallowing, a smile flickered in Zhang Miaomiao's eyes, "Then, they truly vanished. I was so startled that I woke up immediately."
Rubbing her head sheepishly, Zhang Miaomiao continued, "I'm so sorry for making noise and disturbing everyone."
Su Ling seemed to understand the nature of Zhang Miaomiao's storage space. Her own personal space in her previous life was also a vast expanse of yellow sand, devoid of any greenery, and its size was immeasurable.
The difference in this life was likely due to her rebirth before the apocalypse, when Earth's spiritual energy was still abundant. Her personal space was different from Zhang Miaomiao's.
In her past life, her personal space awakened during a mission when she was injured and blood from her body stained the Buddha pendant she wore around her neck.
After her rebirth, the space came back with her, and the pendant around her neck was gone.
Others had started emerging from their tents and had learned about Zhang Miaomiao's space awakening. They were all happy for her. They were very interested and gathered around Zhang Miaomiao, bombarding her with questions and asking her to demonstrate her ability.
Meanwhile, Su Ling was preparing breakfast with Sister Na and Gu Shangse.
By the time breakfast was ready and served, Zhang Miaomiao's space ability had been summarized. It could store items, but they wouldn't spoil. Time flowed at the same rate as outside. Its capacity was limited; once full, no more items could be added.
Compared to Su Ling's earthly space, Zhang Miaomiao's space seemed quite ordinary. However, for survivors in the apocalypse, possessing such a space already qualified her as a chosen one. What survivor wouldn't want such a fantastic ability?
Furthermore, Zhang Miaomiao's boyfriend, Li Yunlong, had the ability of fire, which was also considerable. Their combined strength made them far luckier than most survivors of the apocalypse.
Sipping the hot noodle soup, Zhang Miaomiao was very excited and looked at Li Yunlong eagerly, "Yunlong, let's go to the supermarket downstairs later and store some things in my space." She was eager to test her space and couldn't wait.
Li Yunlong and the others understood her excitement. "Okay." Li Yunlong doted on Zhang Miaomiao, both before and after the apocalypse. Although they had their small squabbles and bumps along the way, their relationship seemed to have grown stronger after Zhang Miaomiao's injury. Especially after experiencing all that, Zhang Miaomiao had shed her previous demanding personality, and they were more in sync.
Seeing their harmonious relationship, Su Ling chose this moment to offer a timely reminder, "The awakening of your space is a good thing, it will give you an edge in your journey through the apocalypse. But remember one thing: harboring treasure will inevitably attract attention and can lead to disaster." She advised, "When you are collecting supplies, try to act with caution."
Su Ling had given the necessary pointers; the rest was up to Li Yunlong and Zhang Miaomiao. Unlike Su Ling, once Zhang Miaomiao's space was exposed, she lacked the means to defend herself, which would put her in danger. Su Ling, on the other hand, could fight her way out and ensure her own safety even if her space was revealed.
Su Ling's reminder instantly brought Li Yunlong and Zhang Miaomiao, who were caught up in their joy, back to sobriety. They looked at Su Ling and nodded in unison, "We will."
