[Apocalypse + no romance + strong female lead + special abilities + construction and development]
Lu Xiao never imagined that after a zombie scratched her, she would become a zombie with only half her memories.
Other zombies spot a living person and immediately start howling with excitement, rushing over without a second thought to take a bite or two.
Lu Xiao's stomach is growling, but she repeats to herself three times: I'm human. I don't eat bloody, disgusting stuff. I'd rather starve to death!
To suppress her zombie instincts, and because her body can't take being hungry any longer, Lu Xiao finds a substitute: ketchup.
One bite nearly kills her on the spot, but to stay alive, find the parents in the photograph, and uncover the secret with a corner missing, she has no choice but to force herself to keep eating.
Fortunately, however awful it tastes, it at least gives her a little energy.
Before her memories have fully returned, a gang of fierce ability users arrives in Ancheng and instantly kills a hulking zombie that Lu Xiao considers a giant among giants.
The puny Lu Xiao thinks: They're way out of my league. I'd better run for it tonight!
Unexpectedly, this accidental choice opens up a whole new path for her. She starts by becoming the zombie village's top boss, then sets her sights on building something bigger and stronger.
It turns out she has the ability to awaken zombies, so she absolutely has to make full use of it!
But these zombie underlings of hers all have a few screws loose. Lu Xiao wants to experience the aura of a powerful ruler, but nearly gets led astray into becoming the head of a psychiatric hospital.
To carve out room for her underlings to survive, Lu Xiao rises from village boss to Zombie King and base chief, then uses a heavenly gift of fertile land to boost everyone's abilities.
Of course, she benefits from the land too, and regains her memories along the way.
Only then does she discover...
