A global wave of strange rules descends. The first rule: Never look directly into any mirror.
Liu Ruyan glances at the bathroom mirror. Her reflection is grinning wickedly.
In her previous life, she survived for seven years, only to be betrayed by the “person” she trusted most and shoved into a horde of corpses.
Reborn on the very day the apocalypse begins, she binds herself to the [Rule Alteration System], which lets her change one character in any rule.
While everyone else trembles under the rules, she rewrites them, changing “must not look directly” to “should not look directly.” An instant death sentence becomes a mere suggestion.
While others are hunted by the Listener, she changes “30 decibels” to “300 decibels,” and the monsters go blind in an instant.
While others freeze into ice sculptures in the extreme cold, she changes “Do not touch metal” to “You must touch metal” and turns the tables on everyone.
In the apocalypse, everyone says Liu Ruyan is a walking embodiment of the rules.
Only she knows that the well-behaved little girl by her side is the greatest threat of all.

“Let’s take a gamble,” she says. Then the rules get on their knees...
