Overworked HR employee Ye Zhiqiu died suddenly and woke up in the apocalypse, where she was bound to a human resources System.
From the start, the System told her to recruit suitable candidates for every job posting.
Confused, Ye Zhiqiu looked at the thick stack of glowing screens in her mind:
“Infinite Seeds,” “Endless Flowing Water,” “Spirit Soil Space,” “Time Manipulation,” “Matter Reshaping”...
The further she read, the fancier the language became.
Were these unbelievably powerful golden fingers the positions waiting to be filled?
Did that mean she had the power to create gods?!
Before she could think it through, the System reminded her again:
“Please complete the contract within one hour. If you fail, the Host will be erased.”
Ye Zhiqiu, a beat behind: “...Hello??????”
With a giant countdown to her death ticking away, Ye Zhiqiu set out with an arsenal of golden fingers, sneaking around like a dog.
The moment she stepped outside, countless zombies locked onto her.
The background music kicked in: I was supposed to be calm and in control, but now I'm rushing around, scrambling and crawling.

Ye Zhiqiu looked at the first “person” she'd managed to sign at the last possible moment.
It hadn't quite gone as expected.
Zombie King Huo Buyu sat on the rooftop, feeling his newly acquired ability and wearing an amused smile.
“You only asked whether I could sign my name. You never asked if I was human.”
Ye Zhiqiu blinked innocently. “...”
Well, the System never said she couldn't.
Next time, when she had more time, she'd be sure to pay attention.
But the people she signed up kept getting more and more outrageous.

Later, Ye Zhiqiu stood atop the base's platform with a crowd of nonhumans.
She looked at the golden-finger recruitment list in her mind, finally empty, and let out a long sigh of relief.
The next second, another System notification arrived...
