The temperature suddenly rises by twelve degrees. Melting glaciers release an ancient virus, and within forty-eight hours, the infected mutate into zombies. Civilization collapses in seven days.
Shen Jiming, a former neural algorithm engineer at Ming Tong Technology, awakens after the Apocalypse begins to the prototype System embedded in his brain: Deep Eye.
This isn't a game interface, but a real algorithmic engine that can evolve continuously. By consuming computing power, it predicts zombie behavior, analyzes resource distribution, and cracks electronic locks and military equipment.
But he has one principle: no saintly heroics. Saving people is a transaction, not an obligation. He only saves people who are useful.
Starting at the Lan Guan City shelter, he forms a lean, capable team: a retired special forces soldier handles firepower, an emergency room doctor handles medical care, and a mechanic modifies vehicles.
They use technological superiority to crush the zombie hordes and rational calculations to make every survival decision.
However, as their exploration deepens, Shen Jiming discovers a horrifying truth:
This Apocalypse may not be a natural disaster.
Someone planted a piece of code in his System that he can't understand.
And that code is called "Behavior Prediction and Emotional Manipulation."
