Chapter 1: Through 18 Years
By the end of August, the southern part of the land was still a hot summer scene. Even though it's 5 p.m., the sun on the streets is still hot enough to make you want to hide in an ice cave, and the summer here is far from the past.
But at this time, in a coastal city in the southern Fujian Province, there was a pair of cold eyes that opened from their slumber. The cold eyes seem to come from the deepest hell, even if you just look at it, it can make people feel as if they have fallen into hell in an instant, and the chill goes straight to the bone marrow.
The owner of these eyes is called Chen Yuan.
"What is this place? Am I not already dead? How did it end up here? Is this paradise? Chen Yuan, who woke up, looked around, the environment seemed to be somewhat familiar, but it was very unfamiliar. He was sure that this was not the place he had lived for the past 18 years. Everything here seems too comfortable, and the comfort makes him want to cry. In the last 18 years, there has not been a day when he does not want to live such a comfortable life. But the last moment, he clearly remembered that he had been surrounded by zombies and was killed by a corpse general, how could he be here? So a series of questions arose in his mind.
"Heaven!" However, he immediately shook his head and denied his thoughts, and secretly laughed in his heart: "Hehe...... Is there a so-called paradise in this world? After doing so many spiritualistic things, am I still qualified to go to heaven now? ”
Eighteen years ago, in the middle of the night on August 30, 2019, every corner of the globe suddenly broke out at the same time with a terrible lesion that targeted most mammals. Later that day is known as the beginning of the cataclysm.
As for the reason, it was not found out until the moment when Chen Yuan was besieged by the zombie army and fought hard with his comrades to death. At least people of his level don't know. Although there are many different rumors in the market, none of them are completely credible in Chen Yuan's opinion.
But almost everyone agrees that from that day on, humanity fell into the most terrible and longest darkness ever.
It was definitely the beginning of a terrible apocalypse.
First of all, the lesion directly caused more than eighty percent of the world's humans and about fifty percent of the world's large mammals to become a kind of terrifying zombie creatures that are muddy but have a strong thirst for fresh flesh and blood. As long as they see a living creature, they will want to pounce on it and bite it desperately. Anyone who has seen such a scene will think that they have come to this hell.
Immediately after the start of the cataclysm within a day or two, the remaining two percent of the human beings, and I don't know how many people were completely defenseless, were bitten and bitten to death by the zombies who suddenly pounced, and after a second infection, they also became a member of the zombie army.
The government and the army were paralyzed almost at the first moment of the catastrophe, and although the communication equipment was usable, eighty percent of the government workers and soldiers also became zombies directly ill and turned into zombies, and they couldn't take care of themselves at all, and who could take care of the local people. Even the heads of state, deputy heads of state, senior generals of the army and other military and political dignitaries are directly affected, and the virus can be whether it is a relative of the emperor or a wealthy businessman. Therefore, these countries could not even achieve unified command, and the whole world was in boundless chaos in an instant.
While ordinary people are waiting for help to no avail, people in despair of hunger and cold finally understand that the world is over. So people began to take up arms to protect themselves. Fighting, in order to survive, the survivors began to engage in endless battles with zombies and mutated creatures, many died in the battle, and some survived. Chen Yuan is a person who has survived hard for 18 years in the last days.
In the past 18 years, he has seen too many people's suffering and tragic deaths, and he himself has struggled with death countless times. In the face of endless zombies, no one can guarantee that they will live forever. Maybe if you don't make it tonight, you'll be killed by zombies that suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Perhaps after eating this meal, he will never find anything to eat and will starve to death. In the last days, all of this is possible.
In the past 18 years, many surviving human beings have regrouped and established a number of large and small survivor settlements. Some were short-lived, and were quickly destroyed by the zombie army; Some are standing, with the help of strong walls to provide safe shelter for the survivors of the city.
In the last days, Chen Yuan was fortunate enough to enter a slightly larger settlement in the north and joined a medium-sized civilian mercenary team.
After more than ten years of desperate fighting, he finally got mixed up with the position of a captain of the mercenary team, and his own strength is not weak. At this time, he saw a little hope for life. But the mercenary group he was in was surrounded by zombies attracted by their hostile mercenary group during an overall operation to collect supplies. There was no hope of breaking through, they could only fight to the death, watching their teammates die one after another, Chen Yuan was full of grief and anger, and his own strength was finally killed by a corpse general, and he died with hatred.
But when he woke up, he found himself in a somewhat familiar and unfamiliar environment, which naturally made Chen Yuan very puzzled.
At this point, just when he wanted to continue figuring out what was going on. A voice that I felt annoying from the bottom of my heart sounded from behind me, and the tone was so bad that Chen Yuan wanted to slash him with a knife: "Okay, Chen Yuan, did the company invite you to let you sleep!" If you don't work well, you dare to sleep openly during working hours. I don't think you want to do it! ”
Chen Yuan also felt very unfamiliar with this voice, but it seemed that when he had heard it, he couldn't remember when it was. But he was able to call Chen Yuan's name directly, and this tone really made Chen Yuan very unhappy. So he couldn't help frowning and turned around to see who it was.
This glance shocked Chen Yuan. Because the person standing behind him to speak was actually the former unit department manager who died 18 years ago.
"Liu Zihua! How could it be you! Chen Yuan, who was shocked, suddenly stood up directly from the chair he was sitting on, and called out the other party's name in surprise. Although for Chen Yuan, this Liu Zihua had died of the lesion 18 years ago, he had a deep memory of this name.
This Liu Zihua is the department manager of the company where Chen Yuan worked before the end of the world. I don't know where Chen Yuan offended him, this Liu Zihua is usually always looking for trouble with Chen Yuan. Usually, Chen Yuan is often called in for some trivial things and criticized him, and he keeps all kinds of small shoes, which simply uses Chen Yuan as a punching bag. If it weren't for the fact that the salary of this job was not bad and it was not easy to find a job, Chen Yuan would have quit a long time ago. Therefore, Chen Yuan had a deep influence on him, and his cold eyes unconsciously brought a little disgust.
