Chapter 2 – Resurrected As A Zombie
This strange environment made Lin Qiao feel out of her wits. She looked around in confusion while weighing this new reality. She must be dreaming! She must definitely be dreaming!
She looked down at her stomach once again.
Her stomach had been ripped from her body, so why was she still conscious? And, what was that strange sound she just made?
She felt that she might be going crazy. She seemed to remember merely having a fever and taking some medicine, then falling asleep. So, how come the world had become like this by the time she woke up?
‘Yes, I must be dreaming! I am dreaming! I am dreaming!’
Lin Qiao repeated this in a bid to convince herself. She had fallen asleep after taking the medicine, and probably just hadn’t woken up yet.
Otherwise, how could she feel nothing while her body was in this state?
Before she could figure out anything, she suddenly sensed a dull ache in her brain. Strange memories that didn’t belong to her randomly flooded her mind, and the dull ache instantly augmented into a swelling pain that threatened to burst her head open. Her face immediately twisted in agony, then she opened her mouth wide and gave a shout.
“Roarrrr!”
With that, her body toppled sideways and fell to the ground.
Within the memories, she saw an ordinary but adorable girl growing from a chubby toddler into a beautiful young lady. Every scene of the growing girl’s life, from primary school to middle school, and then to college, scrolled through Lin Qiao’s mind. This girl’s name was Lu Tianyu. She had been admitted to her dream college, and it should have been so wonderful. However, on her first day of college, the world suddenly changed.
In the classroom, all the new students were looking curiously at each other while introducing themselves one after another. However, things started going wrong when it was the turn of a girl who had been lying motionlessly on her desk.
No matter how loudly the other students called her, the girl wouldn’t wake up. Someone even pushed her, yet she still would not wake. The teacher had no other choice but to ask two male students to help her to the infirmary. However, right at the time when the two male students reached the door of the classroom with this unconscious girl, she suddenly opened her eyes.
Furthermore, those eyes were pale gray in color. She didn’t say a word after opening her eyes, but abruptly turned her head two seconds later and opened her mouth wide. Baring her teeth, she bit the neck of one of the two male students who had been holding her.
Shrill screams spread throughout the entire building,
The others hurriedly pulled the male student away from the girl, but he had already fainted. On the other side, the girl who bit him had become so incredibly strong that even a couple of male students couldn’t hold her down. They just helplessly watched her hurt some other students by biting and scratching them.
The same thing began happening throughout the city, attracting the attention of the government and local police. On that day, all available police and military forces were called out to deal with these strange and frightening events.
That night, a strange hush blanketed the world, and the people woke up the next morning to find their world destroyed.
Only thirty percent of all human beings in the world woke up as themselves, while the remaining seventy percent had all turned into slow-moving zombies with no real consciousness, just the insanely strong desire to eat human beings!
In fact, these memories were utterly disordered, but Lin Qiao slowly managed to put all the pieces together. Even though many parts were missing, she was still able to confirm one thing…
These memories all belonged to somebody else!
From the memories of this girl called Lu Tianyu, Lin Qiao learned another fact-since the apocalyptic era started, five years had passed!
The apocalyptic era began just the day after she took the medicine the last time for her fever and fell asleep.The next morning, many people woke up as senseless zombies that could do nothing but bite every living person they saw. Of course, many others woke up as normal people. And, there were still others who looked normal in appearance, but their physical quality had been drastically changed.
The last type of people were the ones who triggered their superpowers soon after.
By now, Lu Tianyu was twenty-three years old.
In Lu Tianyu’s memories, she did not wake up in the apocalyptic world as a zombie or with a triggered superpower, but as an ordinary person.
In this war-ridden and chaotic apocalyptic world, she was completely defenseless.
Therefore, she had to bargain for survival with her body and clever schemes. Luckily, she had a beautiful face. In the apocalyptic world, the number of women had dropped so dramatically that ninety percent of the people in a base were men, while only ten percent were women. Women had become like rare animals, so she was quite popular being a beautiful woman.
She had been good at scheming ever since she was a child. She framed people and played all kinds of dirty tricks just to survive in this dangerous, chaotic world.
It was strange that Lin Qiao recalled many of Lu Tianyu’s memories, but not all of them. She felt that there were still a lot of things that she hadn’t recollected yet. For example, she couldn’t see anything that Lu Tianyu had done recently.
Twenty years of strange memories filled her mind. Lin Qiao was a little confused, so much so that she nearly lost herself and forgot who she was. Was she Lin Qiao? Was she Lu Tianyu?
Fortunately, while she was gripped by an awful headache, a coolness spread through her brain, triggering her own memories and stopping her from becoming Lu Tianyu fully.
She touched her body and found that her clothes barely covered her body. She lowered her head and looked down at her hollowed stomach, as well as her zombie-eaten breasts.
Lin Qiao wanted to cry, but no tears would come out. She had confirmed one thing—she had become someone else because she had returned from death in someone else’s body! She wondered if her own body had woken up in that world-ending morning like the others. Or perhaps it had become a female zombie who knew nothing except biting every human being it saw!
‘Damn it! Even a rebirth should at least put me into a living person’s body! It could be male or female, old or young! What does this broken zombie body mean? Even if I have to live in a zombie body, I should at least have one that is whole!’ She screamed in her heart.
Depressed, Lin Qiao raised her head and roared, “Roarrrrrrr!”
The zombies around her seemed to sense her discontentment, as they all quieted down suddenly. Then, something weird happened—all of the zombies around her slowly moved away from her, and an area was soon vacated around her.
Lin Qiao lay on the ground, looking around with a strong and strange sensation lingering in her mind.
From Lu Tianyu’s memories, she learned about the changes and developments of the apocalyptic world, and some things that Lu Tianyu had done after the old world ended. Although these memories were incomplete, they were enough for Lin Qiao to learn that Lu Tianyu was the most disgusting and despicable woman in the entire base. She traded for precious resources in the beds of different men, and evilly caused the deaths of many innocent people. However, beautiful women were even more popular in an apocalyptic world like this than they used to be in the old world.
Five years… five whole years had passed. All the people in the base had known that Lu Tianyu was an evil, calculative, and sl*tty woman.
However, Lin Qiao couldn’t understand why she hadn’t woken up that morning when the old world ended instead of five years later. Why did it take her five years?
What about her family? Her comrades? Were they still alive?
No, she couldn’t be like this! She needed to find her mother, brother, sister-in-law, sister, and others! She needed to know how they had been all this while, and whether they had turned into zombies or superpowered ones!
