The apocalypse arrives, and zombies overrun the wasteland. Awakened warriors, ability users, and evolved beings rise up to fight over the last remnants of civilization. Xie Linyuan, an ordinary college student betrayed by his own family and thrown into a horde of zombies, awakens at death’s door to the final trump card left for him in a previous life: [Myriad Worlds Card Pool].
This card pool doesn’t care about science, only superstition. While others awaken tangible abilities like fire, lightning, or spatial powers, Xie Linyuan draws cards like “Lazybones Turnaround,” “Protagonist’s Aura (Fake),” and “Villain-Be-Gone Spray,” all of which seem utterly useless. But when he sticks the “Lazybones Turnaround” card on himself and cleaves a fifth-tier Zombie King in half, everyone falls silent.
In this world where order has collapsed, Xie Linyuan lives by one rule: If no one messes with me, I draw cards. If someone does, I draw until the whole deck is gone. On the surface, he’s a harmless, even somewhat lazy layabout. But deep in his card pool lies a secret powerful enough to overturn the entire balance of the apocalypse. As the card pool keeps leveling up, he gradually realizes that the catastrophe sweeping the globe may not be a natural disaster at all, but a “card game” planned long in advance. And he is neither a player nor a pawn: he is the one drawing the cards.
