Synopsis

No transmigration, no System. A proper post-apocalyptic survival power fantasy.

It focuses on human nature and is full of bloodshed, leaving plenty to savor after you finish reading.

A strange virus flares up along the border. The dead rise again as bloodthirsty walking corpses. Floods sweep through Jiancheng as the prosperous city collapses in disaster, and order crumbles to dust.

Zhao Tuan, a discharged border guard, leads a group of survivors made up of the elderly, the weak, soldiers, and ordinary people on a long journey to find a safe haven. They cross ruins and muddy wastelands, face encirclement by zombie hordes, and witness both the deaths brought on by greed and the warmth of people entrusting their lives to one another in desperate times.

Zombies are only the disaster on the surface. As the bottom line for survival is ground away again and again, the boundary between good and evil blurs. Some cling to their principles, while others sink into darkness.

The road ahead is long and perilous. On this barren wasteland, they face disaster with their own flesh and blood and keep the spark of hope alive with their convictions. Along the path of migration, they compose an epic of the end times for all those driven to the brink.

They cross ruins and muddy wastelands, face encirclement by zombie hordes, and witness both the deaths brought on by greed and the warmth of people entrusting their lives to one another in desperate times.

Ambitious people seize control of laboratories amid the chaos, hoping to turn virus research into leverage in this lawless age. Underlying tensions stir among the various factions, and conflict is about to erupt.

Zombies are only the disaster on the surface.

As the bottom line for survival is ground away again and again, the boundary between good and evil blurs. Some cling to their principles, while others sink into darkness.

Tomato’s Masterpiece of the Apocalypse Genre: Don’t Recommend Anything Below 9.4

Zombies and natural disasters are both fine, but the self-sacrificing saintly types have to die. The protagonist needs to be smart. No System, and no ridiculous plots where they casually gather billions' worth of supplies and a whole arsenal. That kind of thing is insulting to the reader's intelligence.

Are There Any Apocalypse Novels About Fighting Zombies With Conventional Weapons, Without Any Major Annoyances?

Purely modern weapons, or maybe with just a little sci-fi or supernatural stuff! Most zombie apocalypse novels these days have huge amounts of sci-fi and superpowers. Even the protagonist's description is packed with stats, and it's so hard to keep track of. I want to see modern weapons fighting zombie hordes!!!
