    Reader note

    The apocalypse is when humanity and morality are most thoroughly corrupted, when all morals and laws collapse. Faced with a desperate horde of zombies, even survival becomes a despair; what meaning is there in upholding humanity and morality? Multiple storylines depict a realistic apocalypse. The real apocalypse is far from the easy depictions in fantasy dramas; it's about experiencing endless despair in the darkness—the despair of having given your all yet still seeing no hope for survival; the despair of watching friends and loved ones die at the hands of zombies while you are powerless to stop it; the despair of finally reuniting after countless hardships only to have to personally execute your infected child. Darkness and despair are the eternal themes of the apocalypse. This is not a colorful fairy tale; there are no superpowers or reborn individuals who anticipate the enemy's moves. To fight your way out before dawn, you must become the luckiest and most tenacious person. Readers who have seen fantasy dramas should also watch this realistic apocalyptic survival story. After all, the real world is cruel, not as melodramatic as fantasy dramas, because in reality, you can't become a god.
