   🔥 [Apocalypse + Strong Female Lead + Early Infrastructure Development + Later Ensemble Cast + System + Gacha + Pets] Shi Man initially thought she had a typical rebirth story. She acquired a system, her old building transformed into an evolving apocalyptic base, she frantically hoarded supplies, and ruthlessly eliminated awful relatives. While others struggled to survive the apocalyptic disasters, she enjoyed air conditioning, petting cats, and eating hot pot. Until she was stripped of her human status, her race on the task panel was marked as: [null] Shi Man: Something's not right, let me check again. The natural disasters in her memory seemed to be fast-forwarded; floods, extreme heat, and extreme cold arrived at an unprecedented speed. Even more terrifying—global flora and fauna were undergoing insane mutations! Giant banyan trees blotted out the sky overnight, camels with human heads as tall as thirty-story buildings roamed the desert, and insect queens that fed on human brains wove a mental web… Humanity, however, was left behind at the tail end of evolution. Shi Man held a pure land in her hands, standing atop the ruins of civilization. When the cold, high-dimensional gaze fell upon her again, Shi Man slowly raised her head.
