Synopsis

[No romance. The female lead is an unhinged, ruthless beauty, an evil flower who is both beautiful and wicked. Let’s cheer on this bad woman!]

They say the Zombie King can send a million zombies into battle with a single order, and even the strongest ability users are like toys in her hands, easy to play with.

They say she’s as tall as a small mountain. They say she has a huge, bloody mouth, a green face, and fangs. And they say she’s especially fond of handsome men!

Ahem. The person in question is here to clear things up: everything’s true except the last one~

Luo Qing was on her way to work when she got caught in the early days of a zombie outbreak. Even after being bitten, she was still thinking about the money in her account. She’d worked so hard to save it all, only to croak. She closed her eyes full of resentment, then opened them again to find something strange!

Wait, why is everything in front of me a hazy white?

Wait, why do I keep making these growling noises?

Wait, why am I walking so slowly?

Wait a second, why am I so hungry? Why does everything look delicious?

What a scare. Turns out I’d only become a zombie.

Wearing gold-rimmed glasses, Luo Qing nudged the frames with her slender, pale fingers. As she watched the top human ability users shout that they’d kill the Zombie King, contempt filled her eyes.

“You’re not good enough.”

A tall, strikingly beautiful woman stood among giant zombies without a hint of fear. A monstrous beast dozens of meters tall, nearly a hundred, lay prostrate before her, too afraid to raise its head. It submitted to the woman, one of her feet resting on its head.

“Good. That’s more like it.”

There is no romance in this novel. The female lead admires the strong, so all she wants is to become stronger.

I came from another book (●'◡'●). The theme is one I like, but there are a few typos (no, it's more like it's a little awkward to read). Overall, it's good. I like the protagonist's personality; he's an egoist, unlike other zombie stories where the protagonist, even after becoming a zombie, is still thinking about how to integrate into human society and get along with humans.

This is a great read. Unlike many post-apocalyptic novels, which almost always involve a necromancer relationship where the protagonist helps humans fight zombies—and these are all different species—it's truly impressive that they can still fall in love. This book really resonated with me. The female lead is career-oriented, single-mindedly ambitious, and decisive.

This book is quite good. I've read a lot of zombie novels before, and some of them made zombies not eat people—I'm really speechless. What the hell are you doing if you become a zombie and don't eat people? Although I've only read a few chapters so far and haven't reached the later parts, it seems like the rest will be to my liking. Keep it up!

Evaluate: It's innovative, the female lead isn't a saint, and the writing is decent. Unlike other post-apocalyptic stories where you've turned into a zombie and are still flirting with humans, which I find quite ridiculous... Summary: Worth watching

So good! 🥰 I can't wait to see it end, to see the female lead reach the top of the world! And then she should really work on that scheming creature and make it understand who the real master is 🤔 Also, if you're soft-hearted, I suggest you don't watch it. Don't try to define the female lead's race and behavior with human thinking. (PS: I really want to play with the female lead's tail~ It's so cool 😳)

This book is great! The female lead is a real zombie who eats people, not just someone who turned into a zombie. She even considers things from a human perspective. She's also a selfish and cold-blooded person; she kills without hesitation.

Great! The theme is quite novel, and I absolutely love the female lead's personality. Unlike other books, which often follow the same formula or involve a human-zombie romance and fighting zombies together—which I really don't understand—this one completely resonated with me! 🥰🥰🥰🥰 No romantic pairing!!! The female lead is decisive and adaptable. Super good!!! Watch it!!!

It's pretty good, it's rare to see a female lead who becomes a zombie and eats people, and she's not a saint and doesn't have a romantic partner. But I couldn't finish after chapter 100. It's not that it's bad, it just feels off. The female lead is sometimes decisive and ruthless, and sometimes she's indecisive. It feels like she wanted to write something elegant or sophisticated but failed?

Waaah~ Finally, a zombie novel that doesn't involve romance! (｢･ω･)｢Hey Many post-apocalyptic novels on Tomato (a Chinese online literature platform) are constantly indulging in romance (●—●). They're labeled as featuring strong female leads, have a bunch of couples, and rely on the male lead for most things. (As a girl, I really don't like reading this kind of thing; everything is dragged into romance [staring emoji]) I absolutely adore Sister Luo's personality!!! I'm in awe of you!

This novel doesn't feature a saintly heroine, team-ups, or soft-hearted characters. The female lead has no family, and while she's not a goofball, she's quite humorous. The plot isn't overly dramatic; it's layered and well-developed. The female lead is a zombie who understands how to distance herself from humans.
