Weird Apocalypse: My Pig Reaches the Pinnacle of Transcendence!

I'm no longer writing this one. I've started a new book, The Sequence Convoy's Escape: Everyone Else Drives, I Ride a Pig! Find it on my author page.

The apocalypse arrives, and the uncanny descend. The uncanny eat people, and people eat one another...

Meng Yan is a country boy who barely went to school. On the day the apocalypse struck, the only thing he had time to save was the big black pig his family raised.

The good news is, he finally awakened a System!

The bad news is, the pig awakened, not him.

Meng Yan is extremely frustrated! What gives? Is he really worse than a pig? As he rides the black pig down the road of escape, he falls into deep thought.

When the big black pig swallows a cloud of eerie black mist, he discovers that he seems to have gotten a little stronger.

When the big black pig swallows an uncanny crystal, he discovers that he has somehow automatically learned to oink!

What the hell? Meng Yan's vision goes black, then black again!!!
