Chapter 0 - The New Era
"This is the best time, this is the worst; this is the age of wisdom, this is the age of folly; this is the time of faith, this is the time of doubt; this is the season of light, this is the season of darkness; this is the spring of hope, this is the winter of disappointment; there are things before us, there is nothing before us; people are going straight to heaven, people are going straight to hell."
In 2012, Sanya, Hainan Province.
"Dad, dad, see what I found?" The youngster wearing a straw hat excitedly raised the conch in his hand, as if he had discovered an incredible treasure. His immature face flickered with a light of excitement. Under the brim of the hat, the eyes were so dark that they shone without any impurities, as if the brightest stars were shining in the world.
A large hand landed on the straw hat, and the reason it went against the light was so that no one could see its appearance clearly, leaving behind only a tall figure.
A hearty laugh rang out. "Good child, you have picked up a great treasure. Why don't you show it to your mother?"
"En!" The youth nodded vigorously and ran towards a parasol on the beach with a smile on his face.
His laughter echoed on the beach of Sanya. Simple and happy.
Suddenly, the wind blew.
Without any warning, a strong wind came from the distant skies, blowing away the youth's straw hat.
"Ah, my hat …" "Son..." The youth raised his head and watched the straw hat fly into the sky.
The azure sky had originally seemed to be washed clean, but for some reason, it was now filled with gray clouds. The wind swept up the clouds, and the world seemed to change color. It was as if a storm was approaching.
A tall middle-aged man ran towards the boy's father and held his son's hand. At the same time, he shouted towards the umbrella: "Dearest, let's hurry back to the hotel. It's going to rain …"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the youth's panicked voice, "Dad, quickly look up, what is that?"
The middle-aged man lifted his head. In his line of sight, there seemed to be something passing by on the grey cloud in the sky. It turned out that it was a crimson trajectory.
The red streak grew increasingly bright, as if blood was seeping out of the gray cloud. It caused one to feel extremely uneasy.
The middle-aged man wanted to comfort his child, but at this moment, a bright red light flashed in the sky as a giant fireball suddenly smashed down from the gray clouds. The clouds churned as a huge hole was burned through them by the fireball. Thus, the people on the beach could clearly see that behind the Cloud Cave, fireballs were constantly streaking across the blue sky.
"Is that a shooting star? "Father?" The youth's face was filled with bewilderment. It wasn't that he hadn't seen a shooting star before, but he had never seen such a huge, burning fireball.
The middle-aged man had forgotten how to answer the child's question. His eyes followed the fireball as it shot out of the clouds and into the distant sea. A moment later, a deafening sound could be heard from afar. His voice was like a thunderclap, rolling over and over. Accompanied by a loud noise, the ground also began to shake violently. Screams could be heard from everywhere on the beach as people were knocked onto the ground by the strong earthquake.
"Hurry up!" The middle-aged man roared and pulled the child back. However, he heard the sound of rolling waves behind him as well as the screams of the people.
"Tsunami!"
It was unknown who shouted, but it was like a plague was spreading through the crowd. People were panicking. Fear spread like the waves of the ocean, and the whole beach was thrown into chaos.
The youth was grabbed by his father and running away, but he looked back curiously. He looked past his father's powerful arms to the sea behind him. However, he found out that the calm surface of the sea was now surging towards the beach like a giant wall.
And behind this sea wall, the youth's eyes reflected a ball of dazzling light that slowly rose.
The next moment, a powerful light burst out, sweeping across the beach even faster than the tsunami.
The youth flew up. He had never felt his body become so light before, so... Hot!
Yes, an unimaginable heat swept across the surface of his body. That innocent child did not even say a single word before his soul had already entered the kingdom of heaven. At the moment of his death, all he saw were flames.
From the other side of the sea, a sea of flames burned, setting fire to the sand, the tourists, the buildings, and then burning to ashes.
Looking down from the sky, he could see that the sea surface was covered with a strong light. Waves of raging flames swept across the entire Sanya, turning the once famous tourist city into ruins in the blink of an eye. Countless people had died!
&
nbsp; On the same day, numerous meteorites broke through the sky and attacked important cities in China, Japan, Africa, the United States, Germany, France and many other countries. The impact of the meteorite changed the continent's plate and set off a tsunami. The massive flood swept across the world as the apocalypse began.
On this day, the future generations would call it the "Cataclysm Day"!
After experiencing the baptism of the meteor shower, the earth was riddled with holes, dust from the explosions covered the sky, and countless lives were constantly dying and falling. What is even more fatal is the radiation from the explosion, which caused the once prosperous surface to turn into a hell-like existence even after the flood receded.
The shadow of death loomed over the entire Earth. The surviving beings of the Cataclysm Day were actually subjected to the cruelest tests by nature.
Countless lives were being lost, but a small portion of them were still struggling to survive in the Infernal Realm. Fifty years quietly passed by. The lives that survived, their genes, had undergone earth-shattering changes.
Earth ushered in a new era, but no one knew what kind of era it would be.
Chapter 1 - Wake Up
"Give me a suitable distance, and God will kill!" — Warlord Zero
The dream was like a faded old photograph, shrouded in yellow.
"Hahaha..." "Chase after me …"
"..." Stupid... "You have to come back alive …"
"What?" When you come back, propose to me? I … "I didn't say that I would marry you …"
"..." Unless... You brought 999 roses with you... Then I'll just force myself to marry you … "Hahaha …"
Her bell-like laughter echoed in the dream, soft and cheerful.
That swaying white figure was like a lily in the wind, tender and delicate to the point it caused others to feel pity for her.
He could not see her face clearly, but a pair of clear eyes flashed. Who was the person reflected in those eyes that were as gentle as water?
"Li …" In the dream, he lightly called out a name, but he did not respond.
Just like before, the dream gradually disappeared like a bubble and he once again fell into a deep sleep that he did not know how long he slept for.
However, this time, something unexpected happened.
In his dazed state, he seemed to hear something else.
"..." What the hell … I thought I could find some treasure, but it turns out to be a smelly man! "
"Hahaha, Hans. Didn't you get so hungry that you even did it to a man? I've heard that the thirteen-year-old Rumba kid was done by you. "
A burst of unbearable laughter rang out.
"Shut up! Be careful not to prick your chrysanthemum. However, this brat looked pretty beautiful. I, your father, have never had a handsome man from the old era.
As he laughed, he suddenly felt something touch his body.
A signal was sent from the depths of his consciousness, and dozens of data were transmitted to his body. His body, which had been sleeping for an unknown amount of time, gave him a rusty feeling, but his movements were only about 5 percentage points slower than his peak. His body first moved 30 centimeters horizontally before he suddenly sat up. His hand habitually moved to the right and a cold feeling of metal came over him.
He raised his arm, stabbing the cold and heavy object upwards. He only slowly opened his eyes when he felt the sensation of something.
After a short period of discomfort, his vision gradually focused, and he saw a vulgar face. Judging by his brown hair and pale skin, he was a Caucasian. And now the face's owner, his chin pressed against a shiny black barrel, his eyes mixed with a mixture of fear and anger.
"Oh my god, he woke up."
"Hey, kid. Let go of Hans, if not we will not be courteous to you! "
A confused voice came from behind the Caucasian man. He looked past the "hostage" in his hands. It was a dozen or so men dressed as miners, with black and white skin and even two yellow people. They held weapons in their hands, if spades and hammers could be called weapons. There was no doubt that they were targeting him with these tools of violence.
He was silent. The chaotic images in his mind could not organize what was known as memory. He didn't know where he was, who he was facing, or even who he was. Faintly, an image of a well-dressed military uniform flashed through his mind.
Maybe he was a soldier? Maybe!
It was an unanswered question, but even as he pondered it, his hands were as firm as cast iron, and the miniature automatic machine gun in his hand, the length of its black barrel, did not move even a millimeter.
Anyone could tell that this miniature machine gun could instantly shoot Hans's head into a beehive.
With the barrel of the gun, Hans's entire body was already drenched in sweat. What was hateful was that he didn't even dare to change his posture to make himself more comfortable, let alone move. It would lead to a misunderstanding, and in the next second, hundreds of bullets would turn his head into a rotten balloon.
This standoff lasted for a minute, and Hans's legs started to tremble. Seeing that the situation was about to turn into a mess, there was a commotion in the crowd. The various races surrounding him moved to the sides and an old man walked in.
This man clearly belonged to a completely different class from the miners.
He was wearing a worn leather jacket and a grayish-blue tweed shirt. On her lower body was a pair of greasy jeans and a pair of black military boot s. Such a combination was naturally out of the ordinary, but compared to these clothed miners, they were like clouds and mud.
The old man kept on smoking his pipe as his eyes flashed like a poisonous snake. He wandered around between Hans and the two of them. Finally, he said in a deep voice, "Let him go, Survivor. You know how to use a gun. That's good. I, Old Jack, am lacking a talent like you. For warriors like you, there's no need to fuss about it with a dog like Hans, is there? "
Even though his chin was pressed against by a gun, Hans's eyes still flashed with a venomous light.
He opened his mouth and asked in a soft but slightly hoarse voice, "How should I trust you?"
Old Jack blew out a smoke ring and said slowly, "In this base, I am God. No one dares to go against my voice, so don't worry, these bastards won't dare to cause trouble for you. "Moreover, you have a gun in your hand. Even though it's a sprint from the old era, it's still enough to shoot down anyone, including me."
"Only if you kill us all, no one will tell survivors like you what the world is like now." Old Jack added.
The gun barrel left Hans's chin little by little. The latter's legs gave out and he fell onto the ground. The miners behind him quickly went up and pulled him down.
He sat up straight, the miniature machine gun on the side of his thigh. However, the gun was still pointed at the group, maintaining a position where they could shoot at any moment.
Old Jack seemed to turn a blind eye to the machine gun. He walked up to it, took out his pipe and asked, "Welcome to the apocalypse, but no matter what, life must continue. Would you mind telling me your name, then, Survivor? "
Name?
To be honest, he couldn't remember. However, he noticed that on the object that resembled a hibernation chamber, there was the word "ZERO".
Thus, he raised his head and said the name that would be praised by countless people, "My name is... "Zero …"
"Zero …" Old Jack repeated the simple name, noting that the man named Zero had a pair of eyes of different colors.
His left eye was pitch black, no different from a normal yellow person's eye.
However, his right eye was a dazzling gold. Its eyes were like those of a dragon, as though they were made of gold, but they also had silver lines on them. It was as if he came from a mysterious background.
Chapter 2 - Golden Right Eye
"All right, Mr. Nardo. Remember to come to my place every day and inject a Life Resistance Su. After a week, you will be full of vitality again. But you h
ave to be careful not to touch the water or it will get worse. " The owner of the voice had delicate facial features. In this era where genes were constantly changing, there were many things that could be abandoned in order to survive. Beauties were rarely seen.
Without a doubt, the person speaking was a beauty. He was only around 15 or 16 years old, and his young and tender face had the maturity of an adult. Two completely different auras mixed together, giving him a completely different sort of beauty.
He wore a tight red plaid shirt. The hem of the shirt formed a bow shape on his navel, revealing his waist that did not have any fat on it. However, because of the radiation that was everywhere and the contamination from the environment, the blonde woman's skin was slightly rough. However, this small blemish could easily be overlooked under her impeccable appearance.
She wore a pair of fitted denim shorts, only 14 centimeters long enough to wrap around her perfectly round buttocks and long legs.
The perfect combination of an angel face and a devilish body made the blond girl's entire body exude an astonishing attractiveness. Looking at the tasty dishes on the table, Nardo couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva. He hadn't done anything to a woman for over ten years. If a girl like this was thrown into another base or wilderness, she would have already been killed by a man. In this era, the thing that was lacking the most was violence and sex.
However, in the Z7 category, it was an exception. That was because the golden-haired girl's grandfather was the base's boss, Jack. If anyone dared to touch even a hair of his granddaughter Lea, at that moment, the black bodyguard who was standing behind the girl, would throw a fresh and hot lead bullet into your chest.
Therefore, Naddo only dared to swallow his saliva before patting his already bald head and dragging his crippled body out of the infirmary.
"Miss, it's time to go home. Boss should be coming back soon." The black bodyguard reminded.
The young girl, Lea, indifferently replied "got it." However, she paced back and forth in front of the medicine cabinet, and then frowned: "It's not enough to give birth to Su, Holt, we might have to go to the city."
The black man's expression became unnatural. The world had already become chaotic. The so-called city was no longer the paradise of the old era. On the contrary, it was full of danger. Mutated creatures hide in the city's underground tunnels, while monsters that become dead from infection wander through the ruins of the city. Once there were living people, they would swarm and eat. Hunger was the greatest enemy for the living dead, who did not know fear or pain.
