On the day before the apocalypse, Earth was just like any other planet.
But as the clock struck twelve, the sky suddenly turned blood red.
The red light reflected off buildings, people, and animals, creating an eerie scene.
"Congratulations everyone, you have qualified to participate in the race survival game. So, live well for the next ten years~" A emotionless, synthesized electronic voice rang in everyone's minds.
"As expected, the apocalyptic survival game has begun." Leng An was not surprised at all by the voice in his mind. Everything was as he expected. He preferred to call this game the apocalyptic survival game.
He was sitting in his rented room, with a mountain of food, water, medicine and other supplies piled up behind him.
Li Xuanzu had more supplies, since he was unaware of the details of the great calamity, so he was doing his best to stockpile resources.
However, the voice in my head didn't stop; instead, it began to introduce this so-called race survival game.
"The rules of the game are simple: survive. As for what will happen in ten years, only the race with the largest population will remain. All other races will be eliminated." The voice remained cold, but the words sent chills down one's spine.
"Other races? That's good, it's not a natural disaster." Li Xuanzu breathed a sigh of relief. There are two kinds of calamities: one is the invasion of species from other regions, and the other is the heavenly lightning that destroys the Blazing Spirit Continent.
That voice must be from a supreme being, something that cannot be looked at directly, described, or understood.
However, this was not the time to consider such things. Li Xuanzu directly blocked the doorway. To combat the invasion of species from the low-level martial arts world, it was necessary to rely on some external forces.
The voice in my head left me with the words "Enjoy the game" and then fell silent.
As the sound faded away, the entire human race on Earth erupted in jubilation.
"What the heck? Why is there a voice in my head?"
"Me too, upstairs. Is someone playing a prank?"
"I heard that too. It's impossible for a prank to have this effect, right?"
"It is a god, a great god!"
"What should we do? What does that voice mean by talking about a race survival game? Could it be an alien invasion?"
... ...
Opinions online varied widely; some were panicked, some were indifferent, and some hadn't even realized what was happening.
However, something will soon provide an explanation for them.
Within minutes, high-ranking officials from various countries broadcast live, mostly reassuring the public.
But almost everyone with exposed wounds underwent a strange change within those few minutes.
First, regardless of how well their wounds healed, black liquid began to ooze out, their skin began to crack, their hair became dry and yellow and fell out, and they fell into a state of loss of all five senses and weakness in their limbs.
They will only stand up again once the black liquid stops flowing from their bodies.
This can also happen to animals; the smaller the animal, the shorter the time it takes for the black liquid to leak out.
The re-standing creature's appearance was extremely disturbing, prompting everyone to think of one word to describe it.
Zombies.
The most concentrated place for this phenomenon is the hospital. Anyone with even a small wound will mutate immediately. Even some people who are hospitalized but have no wounds will be bitten by the zombies that rise up later and become one of them.
Then came the hospital staff, including doctors and nurses, but some quick-thinking individuals called the police and hid.
Many residential areas will also see people mutating one after another. Who can guarantee that they won't have a few wounds on their body?
Most of them are mutated cats, dogs and rats, especially stray cats and dogs, which are more or less injured. Then there are pets that mutated and bit their owners. Caught off guard, the number of mutated people suddenly increased.
Someone in Li Xuanzu's building has also mutated; it's a little boy living on the first floor.
