Following Mu Ruoling from the previous world, the protagonist of this world, Ximen Hui, is also reborn.
Before the apocalypse, he was a loser. If you had to add some prefixes, he was a recent graduate with no job, no savings, good-looking but otherwise useless, and a loser who was supported by his girlfriend.
In his previous life, he failed to become a superhuman. In the third month after the apocalypse began, his girlfriend finally couldn't resist betraying him and ran off with someone else.
He was filled with impotent rage and unwilling to live an ordinary life, so he went to find zombies to stage an accident, wanting to gamble on something big, but ended up being torn apart by a group of zombies.
After his rebirth, he was given a cheat code: an infinitely large space with a time flow rate of 10:1, containing ten acres of spiritual fields and a pool of spiritual spring.
Spirit fields can accelerate crop growth, while spirit springs have multiple functions, such as helping to awaken supernatural abilities, helping to enhance supernatural abilities, helping to temper the body, and helping to improve one's appearance.
With the help of the spiritual spring, Ximen Hui awakened dual superpowers: in addition to the lightning superpower that is essential for male protagonists, he also has a mental superpower. However, he uses the latter as his trump card and publicly claims that his dual superpowers are lightning and space.
He was reborn a month before the apocalypse. Knowing the future, he naturally needed to prepare supplies, but he had no money.
So he pretended to have a terminal illness, tricked his girlfriend into taking out a nude loan, and then ran away with the money to buy supplies.
— He claimed it was to get revenge on that blind, despicable woman who abandoned him, and the money was for "compensation for emotional distress."
He committed a massive fraud, expanded his procurement of supplies, and yet nothing happened to him. He even somehow acquired guns and bombs, which is utterly absurd.
He awakened his supernatural abilities ahead of time through the spiritual spring, and used the rich spiritual energy in the space and the time difference to cultivate and improve his abilities.
But he likes to play dumb to fool others, and his superpower level is always reported as one or two levels lower than expected.
At the start of the apocalypse, he immediately sought out his former classmates in the same city, gaining their gratitude as a savior and forming the initial team.
He planned to establish his own base and suggested moving north, because he knew that zombies moved slowly in cold climates.
Along the way, they gradually recruited more people into their team, including those with superpowers and ordinary people. Ximen Hui, who had suffered greatly at the bottom of society during the apocalypse, brought along ordinary people not out of compassion, but because he felt that those with superpowers were superior and needed ordinary people to serve them.
However, for these ordinary people, having a large team and a capable captain provides greater protection for their lives, which is indeed a good thing.
In addition, a superhuman who was supposed to be the leader of a certain base in the future was captivated by Ximen Hui's personal charm and took the initiative to become his subordinate, while various beauties threw themselves at him.
He used the excuse that he was a powerful man and could not possibly have only one woman to take the opportunity to build a large harem and even trample on the law.
And then the inevitable villains appear one after another, fighting with Simon Hui's team for corpses, supplies, and women, ultimately either being subdued or killed.
After Simon established his base, he was betrayed by his subordinates who wanted to seize power, and people from other bases came to provoke him, wanting to annex his territory and resources... He was bound to expose his strength, shock everyone, and attract more survivors to join him and strengthen his base.
At the end of the timeline, the Zombie King leads his zombie army to attack a human base, marching north until they are finally defeated at Simon Hui's Radiant Base. Simon Hui uses his psychic abilities in conjunction with the Zombie King's crystal core to cause all the zombies to commit suicide.
So... you could say you did a good deed.
The Glorious Base became the torchbearer for humankind's legacy, and Simon became the uncrowned king, dedicating himself to creating humans so that they could once again spread across the globe.
001's expression was complicated; she never expected that starting a harem could be elevated in such a way.
"Is China the only country in the apocalypse? What about other places?" Emperor Xiu asked a question that struck at the heart of the matter.
"Oh right, what about other countries?"
001 glanced at the situation in other countries and said weakly, "They're all in the same state of chaos right now, and who knows what will happen in the future."
...
Wang Hao's mission requirements were: first, to let Chu Rongrong and Chu Yang fend for themselves and never again be wronged or cuckolded; second, to castrate Ximen Hui.
"He didn't even ask for revenge against Chu Rongrong? Look at how Ximen Hui dealt with his girlfriend, ruining her reputation, leaving her heavily in debt, and then giving her to his subordinates after their reunion in the apocalypse... How disgusting! Even before the apocalypse, cheating didn't have to be this extreme. After the apocalypse, survival is the most important thing."
Simon Hui's girlfriend betrayed him for survival, and at least she held on for three months. On the other hand, Chu Rongrong, as Wang Hao's wife, had someone protecting her, yet she still cheated on him. Clearly, the latter is more disgusting.
Emperor Xiu: "..."
His master had already said everything he wanted to say, and he had nothing more to say.
Just then, the supplementary instructions for the mission arrived.
"If the Chu siblings are doing well, please remember to suppress them... I'll take care of it, I'll keep an eye on them." After 001's upgrade, he can finally see people with God's Eye, although only the male and female protagonists and the villainous big boss.
Of course, if it's within a ten-kilometer radius, then there are no restrictions.
"Xiao Xiuxiu, there's another message. It says there was supposed to be a third mission to find out the truth about Wang Hao's death, but the scenario is unlikely to be replicated, so the request has been deemed invalid."
"Okay, I understand."
"Overall, this mission is much simpler than the last one, so why is it still only intermediate level?" 001 scratched the tuft of hair on his head, feeling very confused.
The first task can be completed by simply leaving the game running, and the second task is even easier, much easier than rebelling.
Di Xiu voiced his guess: "Perhaps it's related to the time of entering the world line."
Since Chu Rongrong and Chu Yang are left to fend for themselves, there's no need for Emperor Xiu to go back. Going back and facing those two face-to-face will only cause him distress. He might as well use that time to complete the second mission.
My phone started vibrating in my pocket; I knew who it was without even looking.
It's dinnertime, time to call the delivery guy.
Di Xiu turned off the computer and sat on the edge of the rooftop with 001, looking at the afterglow of the setting sun in the distance.
It should have been rush hour, but now the roads were filled with stationary vehicles scattered haphazardly, resembling a scene of a multi-vehicle collision, causing great distress to those trying to escape.
The zombies wandered aimlessly, but as night fell, they became more agile and began to roar for no reason.
It's the third day since the red rain appeared. This virus, which had been brewing for four days, has spread here. Ordinary people who have never had a fever are trembling in the face of this suddenly changed world, afraid to step out of their homes. While the zombies have already begun to develop into a race, some of the lucky superhumans haven't even realized that they have awakened their superpowers.
Di Xiu opened his hands, and the power within his body surged up. No change was visible on the surface of his skin, but it made a sound when struck, as if it had turned into steel.
The original user's special ability: localized hardening of the body.
Among all elemental abilities, it doesn't seem particularly outstanding, but it's very suitable for close combat.

(I have a few small questions, and I'll wait for answers here.)
In the post-apocalyptic novels I've read, zombies become sluggish in cold weather but more active at night than during the day. Is this contradictory? Also, are zombies afraid of heat?
