The Doomsday Funeral Director

When the Corpse Emperor virus turns the world into a playground for zombies, funeral director Lin Hao uses a frozen-meat cleaver to split open the jaw of the first mutated corpse. The mole beneath his left eye suddenly glows corpse-oil red, and the Funeral System awakens: extract zombie cores to exchange for preservative spray, convert hearses into mobile fortresses, and even use corpse oil contracts to control the living dead.

As the System's alert sounds, Lin Hao is dragging a half-naked policewoman, Zhao Xue, out of a freezer. The zombie bite on her collarbone resonates with the funeral compass tattoo over his heart. The woman has the blood of the first Corpse Emperor flowing through her veins. The spectral image of his dead father rises from an urn, and the black holes where his eyes should be reveal a shocking secret: Lin Hao is the original subject of a genetic experiment.

As corpse-wranglers pursue him on coffin boards and helicopters from the Hall of the Departed circle overhead, Lin Hao wraps an arm around Zhao Xue's curvy waist and flashes a devilish grin. "Don't be scared. I'll show you the ultimate drift." He drifts his hearse through a zombie chase, makes Molotov cocktails from embalming fluid, and even turns the funeral home into a zombie theme park.
