However, as they watched, they saw them on the bed, where a human and a zombie were in love.

What a happy ending! The weasel and the chicken are together now, the cat and the mouse are living in peace, and the eagle and the snake have made peace. The food chain is now peaceful and harmonious. Applause!

Because of Luo Lin, Bai Wei no longer obsessively thinks about how to exterminate humanity. And because of Bai Wei, Luo Lin no longer harbors such intense hostility towards zombies. However, this alone isn't enough. A zombie and a human falling in love is something neither zombies nor humans can accept. If they want to be together forever, they need to make all zombies and humans love each other.

Driven by this goal, they encouraged each other to dedicate themselves to the great cause of brainwashing both zombies and humans. Over time, these two irreconcilable races finally achieved a friendly relationship ten years later. By then, Bai Wei had become the king of all zombies, and Luo Lin had become the king of all humans.

At the right time, they were like ancient nations before the end of the world, forming a high-profile and official union.

Before this, no one except one person had discovered their secret relationship.

And this "someone" is none other than the person inhabited by the unlucky cannon fodder Qiao Qiu—Feng Yin, the princess of the southern city.

When Feng Yin was young and playful, she first sneaked off to the north and fell in love with Luo Mu, the young master of the northern city. She asked the lords of both the north and south cities to arrange their marriage, and then returned to the southern city to wait for the day of their wedding.

But Feng Yin didn't expect that the Southern City Lord couldn't bear to part with her and hadn't set a wedding date yet. A year later, Feng Yin couldn't bear the longing any longer and slipped away to the North for the second time, wanting to give Luo Mu a surprise.

Unexpectedly, on the way, they bumped into Luo Lin and Bai Wei having sex in an abandoned supermarket.

Feng Yin was completely focused on Luo Mu, so she pretended not to see him when she bumped into him and turned to leave. She didn't even get a clear look at the man's face, let alone suspect that the woman was a zombie.

Although she didn't see it, others wouldn't think so. Luo Lin felt that Feng Yin had seen the whole thing and would tell her older brother, who would then tell their father. When their father wanted to see Bai Wei, he would definitely discover her true identity.

To protect Bai Wei, Luo Lin tricked Feng Yin into the beast tribe, causing her death.

After reading the information, Qiao Qiu had an urge to strangle the male protagonist. However, she held back; the rule of not killing the protagonist was deeply ingrained in her mind.

Qiao Qiu rummaged through her memories and breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, this was Feng Yin's first time sneaking out. She hadn't met the male lead yet and wasn't engaged. If she wanted to make some changes, it was still not too late.

Qiao Qiu turned around and started climbing the mountain. Since she couldn't see her own face right now, she had no choice but to cross the mountain and head south.

In her memory, Feng Yin climbed up this mountain, rolled down, and fainted. Once she climbed back up, the way back was almost the same, with no forks in the road.

The roads leading to the four cities were easy to spot, as there were only two roads, one running horizontally and the other vertically. There were green belts on both sides of each road for about three meters; beyond that, everything was gray. It looked like a slightly crooked green cross written on gray paper.

After crossing the mountain, Qiao Qiu indeed saw the highway, as well as lush green trees and unidentified wildflowers and grasses, and there were people on the road... well, they should be people.

Qiao Qiu stroked her chin and watched for a while as those 'people' with wings, lightning, wind, and fire raced through the air before she stopped looking at them with the same acrobatic gaze.

These are all mutants; in modern anime, they'd all be superheroes. They began mutating the moment the apocalypse arrived; some suddenly grew wings, others suddenly gained the ability to summon water, wind, fire, and so on.

However, these are only a minority; the majority remain unchanged. Therefore, these few become the guardians of each city. They can fight zombies and mutated beasts, purify water, air, and plants, and set up barriers to prevent zombies and mutated beasts from invading. In short, they are even more powerful than Ultraman.

Their power originates from the crystal cores within their heads. These crystal cores are graded, with levels one through four being self-explanatory. Crystal cores at level ten are known as the King Realm. A King Realm crystal core is equivalent to a million zombies, making it the most powerful being. Unfortunately, since the apocalypse began, no one has yet reached this level.

However, just because they can't doesn't mean the protagonist can't. Ten years later, both the male and female protagonists are powerful beings at the King level.

Feng Yin was also a mutant, but only a level three wind-type ability user. When Qiao Qiu took over her body, her crystal core was immediately upgraded to level six.

Qiao Qiu was a little disgusted, but she was also self-aware enough to know why she could only advance to level six.

She walked down the slope, preparing to get onto the highway and go home, letting the male and female protagonists deal with their own mess.

"Huh?" Qiao Qiu suddenly couldn't move her legs. She looked down and saw a little kid in a beige casual suit hugging her legs.

The little boy tilted his head back, opened his big eyes, grinned, revealing two small, white fangs, and said, "Sister."

"Let go."

The little boy was stunned by her cold-hearted attitude, his mind completely focused on 'How can this woman be so heartless?'

Qiao Qiu didn't have time to pick up a little kid. Besides, she could tell at a glance that this child was a high-level zombie like Bai Wei. What if he bit her? "Let go."

"I won't let go!"

"Let go!"

"If you don't take me with you, I won't let you go!"

"Hey, you little brat, are you asking for trouble?"

"Waaah, my sister is bullying me! She's going to throw me to the zombies and doesn't want me anymore!" The child started wailing.

Many pedestrians on the street looked in this direction, and some women even stopped and walked over, seemingly wanting to teach Qiao Qiu a lesson.

Qiao Qiu said nothing, picked up the little devil with her bare hands, threw him on her shoulder, and carried him into the barrier.

The women were stunned when they saw them come in like that. The child wasn't really crying; he was even waving and grinning at them—a typical spoiled brat throwing a tantrum. The women immediately gave Qiao Qiu a pitying look, said nothing, and turned to leave.

Sympathy? I carried him in; you fools are the ones who should feel sorry for him. Qiao Qiu threw him onto a bench by the roadside and stood in front of him.

The child looked like a porcelain doll, with a head of slightly long, chestnut-brown curly hair and a pair of large, beautiful, dark eyes that looked innocent as he stared back at her. There was something else hidden in those eyes, though it felt strangely familiar. His eyelashes were quite long, his skin was smooth and delicate, though unnaturally pale, his face was chubby, and his lips were thin and rosy. He was even more exquisite and beautiful than a girl.
