[Would you like to press the start button?]

Silently feeling the modern society and civilization of Number Three, Li Qing took a deep breath, somewhat excited and nervous, eased a breath, and said, "Start."

Click.

The entire stagnant world suddenly began to operate.

"Ah, Peter, long time no see!"

"Hey, have you watched the latest movie 'Earth Core Civilization 2'?"

The bustling and lively streets, with countless people coming and going.

Modern skyscrapers and steel buildings stood tall.

Under various signal stations, countless people were making phone calls, playing on computers, staring at screens seamlessly.

...

...

Click!

Li Qing suddenly opened his eyes, arriving at his body in this space-time.

"Hey, Li, go check on patient twenty-one?" A voice came from beside him, "If that guy doesn't behave, we should consider giving him a sedative!"

Li Qing observed his surroundings.

It was as if he had returned to the intern days of a corporate slave a few years ago.

He had just graduated, and these were the days when he interned at the Phoenix City Mental Hospital.

At this moment, he was standing in the corridor, surrounded by white walls and some staff in white clothes coming and going.

"What are you spacing out for?"

The familiar fat-headed, big-eared middle-aged man, upon being ignored, was somewhat angry.

"The me in this parallel world doesn't seem any different." Li Qing mumbled a sentence, then ignored the voice and strode out of the room.

"Hey! Where are you going??"

A furious voice came from behind, "If you leave, don't expect to come back, don't expect to graduate! No hospital will take you in afterwards!"

Li Qing walked all the way out of the hospital.

Next to him, a few kind colleagues and the front desk lady wanted to speak but dared not say more, as the scolding behind was really frightening.

Li Qing walked to the street outside and read through the memory of himself in this space-time.

"At this moment, it's six hours before the apocalypse breaks out."

"Five twenty-seven and eighteen seconds in the afternoon, right at peak hour, the apocalypse will break out."

"And according to the me in this space-time, at that time I was still at work, when suddenly a crowd of refugees rushed into the mental hospital outside, blocking the door and turning it into a temporary refuge."

This Phoenix City Mental Hospital actually also managed some mentally ill prisoners who received treatment here, so security was quite strict.

The walls were high enough to serve as a refuge.

"However, the plot was very cliché, someone had actually been bitten, but the survivors in the hospital didn't care about these things, it was chaotic, nobody could check for infection, and nobody wanted to be checked, everyone was wary of each other, unorganized and undisciplined, followed by internal strife, quarrels, and discussions of food distribution. By the next morning, this refuge was breached internally, zombies rampaged."

"The barely surviving people could only hide in wards, lock the doors, and fearfully watch the zombies roaming outside the corridors. The Li Qing of this world, a week later, was starving to the point of no return, could only go out to look for food, and was instantly knocked out."

Very ordinary.

The self of this world was an unremarkable member of the apocalypse, on the first day of the apocalypse, 80% of the population met their end immediately, and Li Qing was no exception.

After all, who was the protagonist?

One of them was Ning Guochang, of course.

A cowardly student in life, a zombie in death, who eventually became a Lord, his era had arrived.

If it were following normal logic, perhaps someone at this point might burst into laughter:

"Am I not dead?"

"I, Li Qing, am back!!"

"In the past, the apocalypse broke out, society collapsed, corpses piled up, seas of blood, I was mediocre and at the bottom of society. Now, back six hours before the apocalypse, I stock up on supplies, seize the refuge, the campus belle, the CEO, the nurse, the teacher...."

"And some early weak, late powerful refuge leaders, all become my underlings, taken under my wing first."

The plot of an apocalypse rebirth novel was very fitting.

All kinds of planning, scheming, and management flow.

Even Li Qing himself could do that, yet he refused.

And at this moment.

Suddenly, next to him was a group of people parading.

"Support the Geocentric theory!"

"The world is round!!"

Seeing some marching people, raising flags and shouting, Li Qing was immediately startled, could there have been an oversight?

But at this moment, a blonde beauty next to him said, "Really, here it goes again!"

"Is this normal?" Li Qing asked.

"Just look it up online and you'll know." The beauty casually said as she walked away, "Hmph, a bunch of fools, even saying the world is round."

Li Qing went online to check.

According to a survey in 2018 by the domestic polling agency YouGov, only 66% of young Americans aged 18-24 firmly believed the world is round.

In fact, a person named Mike Hughes, in an effort to prove the Earth is round, personally boarded a homemade rocket to explore the sky and consequently died from a fall, earning him the title of "America's modern Wan Hu."

Li Qing: "..."

Then nothing is out of the ordinary.

The data is like reality, just reversed.

After all, anti-intellectualism is an old tradition.

Some people even claim that there are no birds left in the world, that birds are mechanical devices made by the government to monitor them...

Reality is more surreal than fiction.

"However, this time they are right; the world truly is round, and the truth is in their hands."

Setting this matter aside, Li Qing recalled the main plot:

"The virus broke out in a laboratory of the Umbrella Corporation located in a suburb near Phoenix City, where Ning Guochang was still attending school, also in Phoenix City..."

Thinking this way, it indeed seems that this city in Arizona is the central plot location.

While thinking, Li Qing ordered a fast food meal outside, then found a building with roof access, blocked the door, and quietly awaited the apocalypse.

He had no plans to do anything.

Time passed second by second until 5:27.

"It has begun."

He suddenly murmured, overlooking the streets and the city below.

Just quietly waiting, eating while watching.

Ah!

Suddenly, there was a scream on the street.

The whole street descended into chaos.

Countless vehicles suddenly crashed into one another.

In an instant, the whole world seemed to fall into chaos, with shouts and roars arising everywhere.

"Ah!"

"Let go of me!"

"It hurts, it hurts!"

Countless zombies erupted.

These zombies were not as sluggish as those in some films.

Pupils turned white.

Faces stiffened.

Unafraid of pain.

Their weakness was the head.

But their movements were at the speed of normal humans, no different from them, just turned into rabid creatures with no recognition of kin, able to run and sprint at top speeds.

One could even see a person running in front, pursued by a dozen zombies.

"I see."

At first glance, Li Qing could notice some clues, "The initial virus potion seems to be a very strange thing, possessing some mysterious great power."

"It should have been made by a certain biotechnology company aiming to streamline and perfect human genetic structure, with the goal of transforming flawed modern humans into perfect Third Senses beings!"

Perfect Genetic Potion.

However, this potion seemed unfinished, a semi-finished product, and then the virus leaked from the lab.

Those zombies must be Third Senses beings...

Just with obvious side effects, bodies perfected but minds lost, turned into mad dogs.

This virus spreads through the air.

Li Qing pondered, "This means, after the virus outbreak, 80% of humans became mind-lost Third Senses beings—zombies, and 20% successfully transformed into perfect human Third Senses beings."

What human cleansing plan?

New human optimization plan?

Also, don't assume that Third Senses is something heaven-defying.

Third Senses is merely the perfect optimization for one's own species, with emergence of aesthetic concept.

Third Senses is a starting point; there's a big gap in racial values.

A pig compared to a Thunderbolt Fairy, both as Third Senses, but their combat capabilities are not on the same level.

Is the human race powerful?

Human combat prowess alone doesn't put them at the top of the food chain; human Third Senses definitely can't compare to a tiger's Third Senses.

Human bodies lack hard power; their greatest strength is intelligence!

This means the human zombies, human survivors in this world, are mainly on the path of intelligence, developing in the direction of spiritual power, telekinesis after starting cultivation in Third Senses?

"With this, some things make sense."

Li Qing smiled slightly.

After just a few glances at the zombie outbreak, he discerned most of the underlying logic.

This is the difference in vision; now with a higher realm, he sees further, and can see through many shallow realms and secrets at a glance.
