[Apocalyptic survival + goofy System + adorable cold-faced heroine + beloved by all + a band of villains learns to become good + building a warm, safe haven]
“What use is she if she doesn’t have an ability?”
The fake heiress had barely finished speaking when Shen Zhining’s own brother snatched away her protective ring and shoved her off the loading platform.
Her three brothers didn’t look back. Her fiancé’s car had an empty seat, but he opened the door only for the fake heiress.
With the horde closing in, a survival System finally bound itself to her.
Shen Zhining: “Where’s the gun? The shield?”
System: [I don’t have those yet, but I can provide music.]
The next second, a cheerful tune rang out in her head: Dun-dun-dun-dun!
Shen Zhining: “...”
She wasn’t dead yet, but the send-off music was already downright festive.
Using the music’s changing volume to guide her, she escaped the horde on her own, only to run into a gang of villains feared by all.
The leader wiped down his gun. “We don’t keep useless people.”
Shen Zhining held her pretty little face rigid. “I can predict the future.”
From then on, this was how others saw her: mysterious, powerful, and calm in a crisis.
The truth: Don’t ask. The ducks in my head are about to quack themselves hoarse, and if I don’t run now, the suona will be taking over!
Luckily, surviving earns rewards, and the System can level up. It can gauge distances, hear murderous intent, and show remote scenes... The lie she told to save her life is starting to look more and more like the truth.
The fake heiress sees through her and knows she has no special ability, waiting for her to be exposed. The people who once abandoned her, however, are now fighting to get her to tell them where to go.
And the villains who initially thought she was useless have learned to take bullets for her, save her a meal, and gather around to ask what she wants for dinner.
Later, the elderly, children, sick people, and ordinary folk with nowhere else to go come to her door.
Everyone waits for the prophet to speak.
They hope she will lead them toward a new life.
